The "all-in-one-location" XDA Skyrocket General Info/Root Method/Kernel/ROM Thread!

---

Welcome all SGSII-Skyrocket owners (and anyone else)!

My purpose is to help organize some general info, root methods, kernels, and (constantly updated) ROMs into one thread with links. I do not take credit for ANY work posted in this thread as they should be given to their respective creators (and porters). Also, I am not responsible for any action(s)/damages you take that are from flashing or changing your device from the way you received it when it was purchased. So basically what you do with the information you find here is on YOU!

I hope that ALL questions and requests related to linked content will be posted in the appropriately linked thread(s). Hopefully, we can keep this organized and easy to read and update. Any dates are in a "MM.DD" format and are derived from the most recent date the OP of each thread was updated (in a subtle attempt to continue having devs update their OP any time they update their creations...though our devs seem to be cooler and smarter than the rest IMO ).

[General Information]
(Here will be info and links to info that can be considered useful to all users of the Skyrocket whether they decide to root/rom their devices or not.)

NEW: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS A few members are reporting great results with this. Please read directions fully on the subject thread!

All in One guide This is a great thread by AppDroid (thanks!) with multiple posts on different subjects (terms, flashing, rooting, etc) if you're new to customizing your phone I suggest you give it a look.

[Rooting Methods]
(This section will link to known and WORKING ways to root your Skyrocket.)
ROOT | CWM | ODIN | SGH-I727 and SGH-I727R Skyrocket ...This is the method I used to root my Skyrocket.
ROOT [ACS] Skyrocket Easy Root - Windows/Mac/Linux
SuperOneClick v2.3.1 (using zergRush) ...a "SUPER" easy way to root (thanks kornklown69 for bringing this up!)
S2 Root v1.5.1 - One Click Root and UnRoot solution for ALL SAMSUNG Devices Was posted in the SGSII forum but says it's for all Samsung androids...the reason I posted this one is because it's supposed to be able to unroot, please post below if you have successfully got this to work! Thanks!

[Kernels]
(This will link to any kernels that are created/being worked on for the Skyrocket.)

[Radios/baseband]
By a valid request this section includes links to radios for the Skyrocket. Since the homie twopumpchump has made a thread dedicated to this I will link to that thread.

[ROMs]
(With our Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket gaining more attention and ownership, I expect our current developers...THANK YOU!!!!...to gain some new developers that will add to the growing list of available ROMs. There are other ROMs out there (not many) but I didn't want to post links to other forum sites. So instead, I will say this is not a complete list of available ROMs but it is all of them available on the XDA Developers SGSII Skyrocket Forums. NO links will go directly to the downloads, instead they will link to the threads. This will hopefully force people to see any instructions and warnings that are related to those ROMs directly from their creators.)

I'm still working on this but will be open to suggestions on how to keep this organized and up-to-date (eventually I'll streamline it down a bit and remove my side comments). PLEASE try and keep comments in this thread related to making it better, helping me/us keep it updated, and also links to any findings that aren't included. Finally, anyone who either wishes to have their content posted here, updated, or removed from here please PM me and I'll do my best to get it sorted out. Thanks!

Ditto i've never used the other method of rooting. BUT superoneclick is SUPER easy

This is a good idea and thanks... but it doesn't belong in the Development section.

Thanks for your input. Where do you think it should be? All the linked threads (besides one) are located within the Development section so imo a compilation (or index if you will) should be in the dev section too and at the top. Also, this isn't the first thread of it's kind. I'm sure you've seen a thread like this in each of the dev forums just to bring some kind of organization to the many roms and dev related convos/discussions.

If there is a better place for it to be then run it by the Moderators and see what they think.

PLEASE try and keep comments in this thread related to making it better, helping me/us keep it updated, and also links to any findings that aren't included

Have a good weekend!

Thank you for starting this. I think this does belong in the Development forum and should be stickied once it gets where it needs to be.

Anywho, my suggestion is to add a section for CWM-flashable modems. There are only a couple of baseband versions out now but I'm sure that as time goes on and more updates/leaks come out that people will want the ability to use the one they want with whatever rom.

Ok I'll take a look for the threads when I get off work and add them ...or you could be a pal and PM me the links so I can add them easily. Thanks for your help and opinion!
