Is rooting the t-mobile samsung galaxy s2 SGH-T989 the same concept of rooting the sprint samgsung galaxy s2 sph-D710? Does the sim card affect rooting process or is it thr same concept? Download mode and odin.....

Same concept(s). Processes and techniques.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329
I would read the T989 forums on how to root. Don't want you to cause a brick.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I have done both and really its pretty much the same. Do not use roms from one for the other though. Also idk how but they have radios from completely different phones. Like the note. You may want to ask in their forums if you run into problems though. The only thing I had a problem with was contacts and that was only on aosp roms.

I don't know about the Skyrocket but if you flash a galaxy S2 rom you're gonna brick your device. There's been a few members who posted this already.
It is the same device minues LTE so in theory it would work. I know they have flashed our roms with no brick only issues would be APN settings. I am not a dev so i could be wrong
Only the Telus matches enough.
So yes or no
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
No. You would need some kinda conversion tool or something like that
Oh ok thats alright i thought id ask ya now
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
You can. You will then need to edit it to fit the tmobile settings
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium
It's not that bad.
Just need to flash a kernel, modem, and replace a gps.conf, and you should be fine and dandy.
The reason why I say a modem is because of the whole LTE thing, I wouldn't want it to screw anything up on your devices. I know for a fact we can flash your modem, our conversion script doesn't include a modem, so we can use your modem, don't know if it's vice-versa.
There are skyrocket roms in the dev section, safe to flash
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Can u please give me the names of them and the instructions
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
They are the same phone except the radio they use. So obviously would need minor tweeking but im sure you could flash with no issue..
My question is why? I just looked at their dev section and they have all the same things we do..
Flash the skyrocket rom you want then flash the zip in this thread right after.

I had a Galaxy SII Epic touch then switched to ATT got the skyrocket. I had roms from the Epic touch on my card. I selected the wrong rom, one for the epic not the skyrocket and bricked my phone. Sent the phone to mobletechvideo and had it unbricked. Super fast turn around good service. I recommend it! http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/contact/
are we allowed to use skyrocket roms on our phone and instructions how because i remember reading before about it thanks in advance.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
make sure its a skyrocket rom and not At&t gsII rom. use a hercules kernel after you flash it. there is more information out there I suggest you use the search feature to learn more on the differences between roms on the two phones.
we need a well written sticky about this subject
ok i see thanks so rom then our kernal one more what is best kernal out for this phone

The phones are almost identical but I wouldnt just assume and trying flashing every single skyrocket roms out there. Use discretion and get a confirmation first from someone who really knows what they're talking about.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
If youre looking for the Darkside Evolution series, its been discontinued. You can search the dev thread for the thread of you like.
For a stock rooted, in the dev thread, do an advanced search for "stock" without the quotes, and search in titles only. You'll find what youre looking for.

Google "thederekjay sourceforge" without the quotations.
Why you want a link of a stock rooted rom? why not root if you are on stock?
Although his kernels are discontinued I have yet to find something thats better, performance and battery life is excellent. My very first rom that I flashed for the S2 was the juggernaught rom and it was basically stock minus bloatware, maybe youd want to look into something like that.

cwm? there are countless howtos, just google search and videos even on youtube that show you how step by step make sure what you double check what you are doing and that the programs you are running are for the t989 specifically

There will be one when Samsung ports it to the i747/i747M -- that is, only if Sammy is willing to --, and when the carrier have put all their bloatwares in it. In other words: when it's ready.
In the meantime, there are a lot on ROMs here based on 4.2 AOSP.

You are wise in your noobness young padawan.
But he's right, the chances that we ever see 4.2 on our sgs3 are slim to none. The sgs4 will probably have it. I have seen the 4.2 features on the sgs3 though but it's the i9300 version (international). And the big phone companies all wanna put their bloatware in it blah blah blah... you know the spiel.
Try slim ROM 4.2.2 superb battery life..

I like ALL the AOSP/AOKP/CM/PARA ROM's .. however, until one of them figures out how to incorporate a 4G/LTE icon into there builds .. I don't touch them .. I don't want just H, H+ or 4G .. give us one with 4G LTE or even LTE by itself.

Those icons mean nothing. I can give you a rom that says 10G. IT is all about the speed your getting.
I have to wonder why op would think we'd know when/if we'll get anther official update...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
TBH, by the time we get 4.2 upgrade for SIII (which possible), SIII will probably be "outdated"
so fastest way to get it is to root your phone... and AOSP > TouchWiz.
I think we'll eventually get an official 4.2 but it will be a long while. If you're not willing to learn how to put custom ROMs on your device, then suggest just stick to 4.1.1 that you have now.

Why reply to posts if your not going to help. Maybe the devs should make a room for ignorant ppl to go to and complain about someone trying to accomplish a tweek. Isn't that the whole idea behind technology? If your not going to help, don't post. Anyway I have a s4 on its way. Will see if I can't port the app for you. Anything else you like in the s4 software?
