More than likely the roms won't be cross compatable

hmm.... maybe i shouldnt try then.. lol
I'm gonna out on a limb and say no. But ask entropy. I figured there would be a lot more devs on this phone, but it is brand new so...
No dont. They are no the same. They use different radios for one. Do not attempt to do that.
yeah don't it could brick the phone (easy fix if you know what your doing) but this was something that was tried out at the beginning with the first sgs phones all the phones were different so the roms didn't really work and when ported over still caused problems for the phones that the rom wasn't built for. :/

Will not work. Think of it like ths..if you could flash any galaxy s2 ROM on any galaxy s2 sites phone that we would have more than one custom ROM in development of att sgs2 forums...

No one has figured out a "hellraiser" style strategy for the I777 yet.
Don't know if one will be identified... It's more complicated than just swapping a 777 kernel/modem in, I tried earlier today. Haven't had time to review the results, other than I've got a logcat full of errors.
Different size screen, radio, cell technology, and processors. Yeah it might work.
Got a T Mobile Samsung Ace which i want to flash with the latest firmware.
My phone is simlocked so it is going to be a problem?
Also which firmware do I use?
Did *#1234# and got this

I'm having the same problem and I'm with Orange. You do have to get your phone unlocked unless you intend to get new Provider Firmware. Also I'm a noob so I'm a little uneasy about trying to unlock the Ace myself, I'd rather take it into the shop. Plus I'm told it has to be physically unlocked by USB. Paying for codes online does not work and in my case even the so called Temporary Unlocks do not work.
Have you figured out the letter codes? Maybe you could help me find an alternative Orange firmware? I'm running Gingerbread BVKQA.
Hope this helps

I just want standard samsung firmware none of this carrier rubbish.
I will still be using a tmobile sim in the phone?
so is the simlock such a big issue?

Funny thing, I have the exact same Ace from Orange. I rooted it, first went from 2.2 to 2.3.4 and now I updated it to 2.3.5. Looking for a custom rom to flash it with but I've never gotten that far with customization so I'm not too sure. Thinking of replacing the boot animation to the nexus one's. Looks pretty epic ;D

I think so... but I am just going by what other threads and other forums have said. I'm not sure it will brick it, but it won't be up to snuff that's for sure. I haven't been on XDA long but I've had some invaluable help from EmoBoiix3 along the way. It's a name worth searching. He wrote the Newbie Guide at the start of the Galaxy Ace forum. Seems to know his onions!

Same.
After umming and erring about it I finally snapped up the courage to root via Superoneclick. Downloaded Kies. Hooked up. And like yourself I went to 2.3.4 which is where I seem to be in a bit of a rut.
My phone is still network locked - haven't the balls to try unlocking myself - but that is my next priority in the next couple of days via the High Street Unlock Shops. Until then I cannot try out any fancy ROMs.
Also, dunno what the hell I've done to the phone but the infamous upd_1.zip no longer appears to work for rooting now!!!!
I'm curious, how did you get to 2.3.5? And is your phone unlocked?
Phone T Mobile and asked for unlock code, got it free!

I'm pretty sure it's unlocked now since the Orange animation thing is gone from the boot screen. I got 2.3.5 by updating through Odin from androidadvices.com. I'm not sure if that unlocks it though but I believe it is. It says you can't update with the phone locked to the carrier and I did it anyway and worked when I went from 2.2 to 2.3.4. Not sure if I just got lucky or something. You should give it a try.

Thats cool. I had heard it was just Vodafone doing it for free, but don't believe everything I hear.
Got mine unlocked today. Paid a nice man 15 dibs to take a weight off my shoulders and now I'm just about ready to flash. Happy Days!

SuperAce609 - Not sure how you managed it but well done. I'm thinking my next step should be to get new firmware. European KPH I think. Apparently it is compatible with most ROMs available to the Ace. Been advised to steer clear of Cyanogen though (pity!) as it isn't official or stable enough for Ace.

Yeah! And I was so exited to try it out too! I'm thinking of changing it to the Honeycomb theme but I'm not too sure. And since there isn't a version compatible with the 2.3.5 I have on, I can't do it . Besides, since I switch themes a lot, knowing my self, I'd probably be switching from rom to rom and that sounds like too much work xD

In a bizarre twist I went for the most recent firmware in the end. KPO. Now wishing I hadn't and gone for the KPH instead. Also rethinking Cyanogen. Seriously need to make up my mind!

Hello.. I trying to fix my S2 i777...I upgrade it to ICS 4.0.3 the official version using Kies... and the same issue no signal... after that I root the phone... tried so many different apps.. such as the Samsung galaxy s Sim unlock etc etc etc etc.... and the network lock is OFF and pretty sure about it... but I do not have signal... I tried different Sims from different providers and is the same issue... the phone is recognizing the Sim cuz is asking for the PIN... but not signal...also I bought a unlock code and no is not that... so someone knows how to fix it
Not trying to be an ass but why do people come to a custom ROM forum to ask questions about official att Samsung updates and help with them.

Did it work before the upgrade? If it did I would return it to AT&T and tell him the ICS update broke your phone.

did the upgrade break it? did you do something to break it?
Does your provider support at&t bands?
If the phone is stock, and you havent done anything to cause the problem. check the contacts on the SIM, or the phone h/w failed.

If it was like that before the upgrade then it's a hardware issue. The phone has a broken antenna.
And you probably voided his warranty by flashing a custom rom. LOL.

Because if I was over In The att / Samsung forums asking for help with a custom ROM what kind of replies and help would I get. Like I said I wasn't trying to be an ass about it was just kinda curious why people don't ask for help on official ROMs from the people who actually release it.

I am the new samsung galaxy s3 user and I bought it in hk and it is the HongKong S3 version.
It was gud but recently it show the very tricky situation when turn on or off the wifi it shows a strange sentence.
And I sent it to HK samsung twice and they just said the hardwares are no problems and fine...they believed that was software pro like apps crash.
Then they flashed it twice for original hk samsung rom....however it doesnt work and i give up to ask the stupid hk samsung.
I hope u guys can help me or let me know what its goin on....

Am getting similar msgs about a running game whatever..... It must b some application i installed which pushes such ads or adware...... How can i know which app? Nd by the way dont know if it is wifi on off related but rather happens when internet source is toggled..... Wifi/3g etc.... Task manager shows no application running....
I asked my (Chinese) wife, it means "The Internet connection was changed".
I don't see any pics man
A quick look at logcat will probably tell you the offending app or process.
It means way of connection to the internet has changed in Chinese
I had a similar issue to this on a UK firmware with an SGS2 and when wifi was enabled it used to display a Korean message, I think there maybe some non-translated strings in this area.
Here is the text if you need it:-
網絡連接狀態改變
So do u guys know how to fixed it?

Well, there is no "issue" except that they've forgotten to translate a string of text somewhere saying "your internet connection changed" as previously stated. This notification is correct.
If you don't want to root it or flash different firmware you'll have to live with it for now.

AFAIK the I757 aka 'Sky rocket' has an entirely diff hardware config compared to I9100 hence, installing a software meant for the I9100(international) on ur phone might lead to a hardbrick, u have a dedicated section for the same.please visit there and check

This phone is made by bell. So I can only flash the ROMs that are only made for this phone? I cannot flash skyrocket ROMs? There are only like 2 ROMs for this phone :9
I've bought an i757 too and im a little decieve at the fact that there is only two Rom available for this built.
Well. I love it anyway. I find it more interresting than the original gs2 an much more cool than the ugly gs3.
And the CM10 Rom is getting better each day. So there still hope.

For all intents and purposes I believe they (the i757 & i757m) are the same phone, but they may use different modem software.
