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.

I couldn't report on the battery life, I had the caller hearing themselves echo loudly so I went back to cm7. Which is badass btw.

Whenever I'm curious about a new Rom (beta or alpha) I flash it and make my own decision if I like it or not. That's the advice I give you. I flashed cm10 0801 earlier today and I love it so far, but as with any new Rom, you need to run it for a few days to see its full potential. Granted with an alpha version there always is going to be a couple things that may not work correctly but you got to determine if that's something you can live with for awhile. If not, simply flash your nandroid. ALWAYS MAKE A BACK UP

JB is much smoother and quicker (opening apps, transitions, etc...). Not to mention the benefits from GNow.
Aside from the camera issues, the JB ROMS rock!

Also keep in mind that there is no wifi calling on these non-stock ROMs. Deal-breaker for me since I have terrible service at home.

Considering how big New York is, their might not be a clear answer. Best thing is to flash them one by one, and find out for yourself.

Since am also in NYC of them all that I've tested to be so called the "best" is the note radio uvlg3 then the newest uvlh5 blaze radio..

Sit on your couch. Download a few radios, get the signal strength app, flash a radio, check your dBm and download speeds.
This sort of thing varies for everyone and there is never a clear cut answer.
