I would love to know what all you SkyRocket dreamers are doing with your phones that I'm not. Why even consider jumping from what I consider the best device i've ever owned. Even if it were the Exynos chipset what are you doing with a phone that would require that much processing power? LTE, ok most will not be taking advantage of this for a year or two anyways but even if you could, i stream pandora or spotify all the time while surfing the web and have never had any problems with download speeds at all? Bigger screen, ok maybe that is appealing to some but coming from an infuse I found it was nice some of the time but mostly it was just cumbersome and embarrassing unless of course your toting around a purse to hall that thing in.

Just curious, maybe i am totally ignoring some other way to utilize this beast of a machine to it's fullest capabilities if I am not already having wet dreams over an unreleased device with rumored specs?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ishmael47:
Confirmed not Exynos. Look at the pictures, near the 3.5mm headphone jack it says Qualcomm. Looks like its the Snapdragon after all.

I can't post a link yet, but go to "The Verge" website and look at their Skyrocket hands on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PeartFan40:
It was "announced", meaning it's still in the development stages. As of now, there is no Exynos 1.5ghz cpu. It'going to be at least a year before it's used in devices. So no, as of now there is no Exynos 1.5...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] crispy1805:
It's probably is the Qualcomm. Nothing to cry over though. Let's just wait until it actually releases and focus on the facts we have now.

From milan03:

"Clock for clock exynos is about 20% faster. So 1.2Ghz Exynos = 1.44Ghz Qualcomm roughly... So it's really about the same, nothing to cry about.

BTW it's the same Galaxy S2 LTE "Celox" released in Korea several months ago, and recently released in Europe (Germany).

Here is a nice unboxing of the original Korean version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4DeEby4iEU "

Regardless, there is no LTE in my area and won't be for sometime soon. Sticking with the OG.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AllTheWay:
I used both the Skyrocket and Vivid today. Both had the same chipset the Qualcomm but the Samsung one is running at 1.5 and the HTC is a 1.2. Ran a couple of different speed test in comparison to Galaxy S 2. No real difference in performance or scores. I really like both phones and the HTC has a beautiful screen as well.

The Skyrocket did beat the Vivid in all of the different benchmarking apps.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BarryH_GEG:
Before real info came out a couple of people were convinced or wishing that the Skyrocket was going to be the launch device for the 1.5GHz Exynos. Others were sure it was going to be a Celox variant which was confirmed to be Qualcomm. The bet was we'd pay for each other's phones depending on which chip was installed. Kind of like racing for pink slips. As you can see, those betting Qualcomm won. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Just some forum humor.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
That's what I thought it was about ... but weren't both of them betting it was going to be qualcomm?

Awesome alltheway...in your opinion would you say that the skyrocket is the better phone between the two? I was waiting for the holiday aka vivid but it seems that it has about the specs as the sensation, and I don't think it would be worth it to give up my sensation for the vivid...but would it be worth it to get three skyrocket? Or should i just wait for the next best...but I think this is as good as it will get for ATT for a while...thanks on advanced...

OOPS Yep. My bad. He was one of the guys agreeing with me. I was ACTUALLY trying to make the bet with the other guy. SO NatureFreak disregard as it was my mixup. Damn and I thought I was gonna win fo sho... I guess the other Guy didn't have it in him to take the bet... even if is was all in fun...

STILL GLAD I AM KEEPING MY SGS2 rather than the qualcomm chip phone. I know it will still be a good phone just not as good as the OG. BUT I could be wrong and many devs will take on the challenge to get many samsung based roms, CM7, miui, other kernels, etc. So maybe I will eat my words someday. My area WILL HAVE Ltd by the end of this year but I can wait the 12 months until I am up for a upgrade again or just buy a international version a little beforehand. Still for me solely trading in for the lte model with no other advancements but more of downgrades IMHO is how I truly feel... Good Luck to those that get the lte models and I hope it is everything you expected...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] llescaflownell:
I dunno if it's just me, but why have LTE when most everyone is tiered now? Of course those not tiered, should probably jump on this, with comparable real world processor speeds, larger screen (albeit with a lower pixel density...), and with LTE. If I was on unlimited I'd jump on this. But as of right now, my OG SGS2 is perfect even with GNexus coming out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naturefreak85:
Um.....if you read my posts I stated the whole time it was Qualcomm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SSJ_Gomike:
That's my point.....IF is did exist which it doesn't.....that's why the galaxy s 2 LTE and the tmo version have snapdragons ...they just don't work with exynos at this time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] apexi350z:
that's why I decided to NOT to switch to Skyrocket, and gain the LTE capability. Yes it's alot faster (8mbps down/ 2mbps up here in Houston, tested myself with LTE hotspot modem), but since I only have 2GB data, what's the point?

Its a snappy chip. Video on phonescoop some1 just lost a phone :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bidyut:
At least here in ATL the only reason I am remotely interested in the LTE version is to get off the same bands that most users are hogging. Though the speed is a definite plus.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] orb3000:
Such an important piece of information we have here!

Congrats Adam and all the team, will write about this!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebellos:
That's seems to be our alma mater of UB Mods. The first of whole family finally got UnBrickable. :)

Okay, so, what is Hummingbird Interceptor Boot Loader (HIBL)?

Basically: It allows to load any amount of data (limited by size of RAM block, the biggest one single block available is 256MB) through USB connection with PC under any specified address into memory and then execute it.

Technically: It does consist of 2 pieces fused together - BL1_stage1 and BL1_stage2.

Each stage starts from 16bytes (4 ARM WORDs) of secure boot header. In stage1 these are mandatory, in stage2 they can be random (nulled them in my code), so EntryPoint of each stage does start at its 0x10 offset.

BL1_stage1, loaded under 0xD0020000 address, is short code, digitally signed by Samsung. It has been released to break "Chain of Trust" and alter Secure Boot into Non-Secure Boot process. Literally stage1 just do some compare operations and then jumpout to BL1_stage2. (Yes, I also see no point of releasing hardware secured CPU version together with software which is bypassing it's security)

BL1_stage2, must be placed at 0xD0022000 address (it's fused together with stage1 into HIBL, so it's at 0x2000 offset of HIBL.bin) it is unsigned because Secure Boot Context, prepared by iROM (BL0) has been already ignored by stage1.

Its FASM_ARM sourcecode:

http://code.google.com/p/hummingbir...unk/HummingBirdInterceptorBootloader/HIBL.ASM

This is where the code start real work, it does begin with standard ARM core jump vector table (just to keep stick to standard, these aren't used anyway).

1. It does use I9000 BL1_stage2 functions (init_system) which I linked to it, these are used to init DMC controllers, as to this point code is executing in and working with very tiny, 96KB iRAM space, after calling this function it turns all 512MB of RAM available.

2. Make sure DMC is configured properly (write some value to address 0x40~~ memory space, then read it and compare with previously written)

3. Reinit iRAM heap to the BL0 initial state (to convince it USB dload mode haven't been called yet), by storing and restoring UART pointer only (to keep debug output flowing properly)

4. Call iROM usb_downloader function.

5. Read the address where downloaded data has been placed.

6. Jump into this address.

This, properly used provides similiar debug output (similiar, because its outdated testlog)

It opens infinite capabilities. Instead of SBL to unbrick, Uboot can be loaded, or any armlinux kernel. It's all up to you - XDA Developers.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AdamOutler:
It would be a completely different task. Exynos Is a different processor. However, I know what needs to be done. I have the datasheets. Its a matter of locating the xOM pins, figuring out how they work, then rebellos can develop firmware and I can package a resurrector.

OMAP based devices like the Galaxy Nexus will be even easier.

There is no hope in sight for Qualcom devices like T-Mobile SGS2. All other SGS2 devices are ready. I just need one to work with.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simone201:
Good to know!

I hope u can work on an I9100 soon as it would be much better to develop for a newer platform...

4. Go to the /system/app folder and touch the Mount R/W button

5. Delete the SystemUI.odex and CMParts.odex (only if you using the Grifs CM)

6. Paste the SystemUI.apk and CMParts.apk in this folder

7. If get an error that the SystemUI.apk crashes make a reboot (system will start without the notification bar).

8. Open Root Explorer and go to /system/app and select SystemUI.apk and set permissions to:
