After upgrade are we going to loose default Alps like quickbook?

Default alps like quickbook? I'm not sure if you are refering to bloatware I don't remember deleting or something you downloaded via Market... So I'm going to try and address both.
This one-click wipes everything, including your sdcard(at least onboard, i didn't have one connected to find out if it nuked physical ones too). It will reset and restore the device to match how it would have been given to you had AT&T flashed it themselves and handed you the device seconds later.

So any apps you downloaded from the market, gone, your accounts, gone, and any bloatware they had on the original(2.3.5) rom... Well I wish it was gone, but as far as I can tell they reflashed the same crappy bloatware apps from Gingerbread so the OLD bloatware will be gone(because everything will be gone), but it'll be reloaded automatically for you with this one-click!

I'm hoping that was helpful?

Works for me, alot of reading I've done people say it works after a reboot, or if that doesn't fix it, run oneclick one more time and that generally does it.

New to Android for the most part so hang in there with the new guy questions on rooting. I have ICS running now but I am not sure of the most efficient process to root ICS and not sure how to go about rooting and not incrementing the counter. Any pointers?

I'm using the Skyrocket ICS port for T-Mobile's S2 and I used this CWM superuser zip file. Some say you have to flash it several times in a row, but as long as you don't see the red triangle after flashing it should work. You just have to reboot each time to find out.

I am new to this and I installed ICS on my Skyrocket and the only problem I am having is when I bring up my phone to make a call it takes forever to open. Is there a fix for this? Other than this ICS is great!

i've spent some time loading apps & such on 2.3.6 AT&T Skyrocket. I'd love to root the Skyrocket i727 and install ICS (which I have on my rooted Galaxy Nexus from Verizon) but before doing, would like to know if there is way to backup and restore apps already installed without re-installing. Am using the purchased App to SD PRO so was wondering if I copied all the apps from the internal SD to the external SD card and then, after going to ICS, would I get the apps back if I copied them back to the internal SD card. Alternatively could I use Titanium backup to restore apps? I think I have to root/erase the phone first so that might not be the solution. Basically is there any way to restore instead of re-installing all the apps after ICS/root? Also, do you think that you will be able to do over the air updates to ICS directly from AT&T after the root/ICS?

The oneclick odin for ICS is pure stock.
On the original 2.3.5 stock rom, you could root with a zergrush exploit, then load rom manager and install the T-Mo SGS2 CWM.
With ICS, I couldn't seem to get zergrush[or any other exploit i had last night] to work again.

To root without flagging the flashcounter(Source1,Source2):

1. Flash CWM with Odin
2. (Put device in download mode, click the PDA button and select the .tar file that is CWM, make sure repartition IS NOT checked)
3. Using CWM, flash Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

Edit: The reason I've been reading that this doesn't increase the flash counter is that we aren't using Odin to reflash the kernel space with a non-samsung official file. My safety rule of thumb on my Skyrocket is always use CWM if possible, and if I have to Odin I'm only using stock flashes or purely doing a CWM/recovery flash.

Is this necessary before or after the use One-Click? I am total newb to this stuff. I was able to use one click and get ICS installed. Apps work hit and miss, but everything else seems to work fine.

Download these two files and put them on your SD Card.
LatinImeGoogle.apk
LatinImeDictionaryPack.apk

Copy them from your SD CARD to /system/app and set permissions on both files to rw-r--r--
Rename /system/app/LatinIME.apk to LatinIME.apk.bak (it's your old keyboard)

Reboot

 

[willjtor]

Downloaded the files and I connected my andriod to computer and launched the usb storage utility. I don't see a /system/app folder. What might I be doing wrong? Do I need to go into the device another way to see the system folder. I also noticed any music I do download is going to internal storage and not being stored on the flash card.

Thanks for your help appreciate it.

Assuming you're using a windows pc, when you connect the phone windows won't display files from the root of the device, only its storage contents. Use a file explorer app such as Root Explorer(paid) or ES File Explorer(free) to move the files. I prefer Root Explorer. When prompted grant root privileges and be sure to set > system as RW (it defaults to RO-read only). Another way is to use ADB and push them to the system by typing the following from command prompt:
-adb remount
-adb reboot recovery
(In recovery scroll to mounts and storage and mount system)
-adb remount
-adb push c:/where apk is located/filename.apk /system/app

If that doesn't work manually add the 2 apk's to a flashable rom zip in the > system > app folder, delete the old apk, re-zip and flash the rom.

Hope this helps.

So how do I do this? I downloaded the first link.

Sorry for this dumb question. I am very new to this.

Thanks

 

[jellopika]

can someone please direct me to a link that describes how to un-root this ICS leak. I've been looking everywhere, but many of these "un-rooters" don't support ICS. Thanks!

 

[zakabed]

How do i do this? Do I download on my phone or on my computer? are there any steps? if this was already posted, sorry.

 

[impulsive]

I figured it out. Look on youtube for it. Simple steps,install the drivers for your phone. Connect your phone. Open the program you downloaded here. Hit start. Do not do anything no matter how long it takes.

I have some issues after the installation though. It wont shut down normally. I downloaded an app called quick boot to handle that. It is fine now. You may need to flash your installation couple of times to get it working better.

 

[epamias]

Does this work? I am stuck on setup connection???

 

[hypercore]

This is honestly driving me insane. I've done everything right. Installed drivers, I have CWM installed, put into download mode, ran the .exe in Administration mode and I get this: http://i.imgur.com/kUKuo.png

I've tried it in every way possible, what could I possibly be doing wrong?
