Can we flash ics skyrocket roms?

Seems to me the development in the skyrocket forum is ahead of ours. Can we flash skyrocket ics rooms without modification from the skyrocket forum or do we have to wait until the t989 devs hack it to work. Also what must be modified to get the skyrocket ics roms to boot?

All of your questions can be answered in the development thread.
Edit: why are you asking here? According to your sig you've already got a sky rocket...Why not head to the appropriate forum?

His signature probably says he had a skyrocket because he is running one of the new leaks ported to the T989.

Yup. My question is have the devs changed the skyrocket roms to work on our device or can we use them as is?

I wouldnt chance it and wait till the skyrocket ports come to our t989...the software jus might be dif enough to brick your phone...let the devs do there magic

Before the latest leak, I flashed SkyICS without a problem. Just had to flash the autorotate hotfix and a T-Mobile radio.

Not to be too off topic but this was the ROM I've been curious about trying. Hows the battery life? Many people say its awesome, is it better than any ICS ROM we have now?

Didn't you just say you already flashed a Skyrocket ROM? What are you even asking? It sounds like you are answering yourself.

[Q] Best JB Rom? opinion based.

Well guys, I know there isn't a lot of stable JB roms out there.
But based on YOUR opinion and experience which ones are the best? It could be AOSP.

Actually most of them I've tried have been pretty stable. I'm on paradroid right now and everything is smooth.
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk 2

Sprints official jb port is by far the best one.

Read those threads and see what people post the most of. Being spoon fed is shunned here. It only takes about 5 minutes to skim through the last 5 pages and get an idea of the ROM.

I've tried. Trust me lol. I just can't get convinced since some users have bad experience on it. I'm very familiar with android, so I was planning on asking someone whos running it.
Btw, I couldn't install PA.

4+ hours of screen time with lean kernel

I personally have been using Deviant Dev FrostyJB_4.1.1-v6. It is really fast but not has fast as Wicked ICS v7 Rom. But I just love the Frosty Jelly bean the only problem I am having now is that whenever I restart my phone it switches the default keyboard back to stock and not swiftkey 3.

i've been jumping around from CM10 nightlies, PA 2.23/2.51/2.52, and Liquid Smooth RC7... trying to find a good battery.
out of the 3, i like CM10 the most, so i'll probably go back to CM10 nightlies, if not CM10 M2.

My fav have been so far Frostys and Paranoid Android, Im currently using the Sprint Jellybean release which seems to be to basic compared to those mentioned.

Latest cm10 nightly for me
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

does CM10 have a lut of bugs? or its a every day ROM?

Don't really run cm10 mods too many bugs but that's good to know. And for some reason anytime I flashed a cm or aokp aosp rom my phone would get super hot with Normal use, but not with tw roms. Weird.

Probably a test build for someone and it wasn't good so they removed. And just a friendly heads up, I wouldn't do that again unless you are very comfortable with what you're doing, or don't mind spending the cash to fix it afterwards. Patience is your friend

Kasper has a build that boots up and is running but has some issues; Camera, bluetooth, I'm guessing other HW issues also.
If you can't find it yourself you have no business asking where to find it.

These are the bugs I found
If you can fix anything here that would be great!
1. Video camera does not work I tried different camera apps also and it still didn't work.
2. If you plug in headphones every thing still comes out of the speaker.
3. The mic does not work in any app except the phone.
I am still testing but that is what I found so far.

Thanks again as always, but are there any 4.2 ROMs available yet?

It's in the General section for now. But it's 4.1 so it probably isn't compatible since the thread title says 4.2+

Yes. I had it on every version of 4.1.2. that I flashed. Stock, Jellybeast, and JMT build 4,5,6.
All clean app installs as well. It is an app bug and not a rom bug. Instagram had a couple of updates during that time, but never
fixed it.
Now, I am on 4.2.2 and it works perfect.

I think you can disable HW overlays under Dev Options and fix this.. (You have to do this on each reboot)

It depends on what ROM you are running. There are scripted cooked ROMs that will do this by default.
The problems with Instagram is the app doesn't function well with the standard AOSP JB feature of HW overlays. Once you disable them you are taking away from what was the major selling point between ICS and JB in the first place.
