[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mohan_kr:
:)

Please read this Post #1, Post #2, Post #3 not once, but multiple times. This is a Daily Driver ROM, for those who have been with EMBRYO series of ROM, it is pillar of high quality, so updates will be few and far between. Please see Post #2 for ChangeLog and features. NOTE: THIS IS SAMSUNG TouchWiz Framework based ROM.

STANDARD DISCLAIMER: You are flashing this on your own free will.

If you are new to flashing on the Skyrocket, please read the Stickies in this forum to get familiar with the terms. Also, before you ask a question come back to the OP to check if I have updated it, before you post, as I do update it frequently. Let's keep the post count less and relevant, do not waste a post by saying the ROM is great (I know it is great :)), hit the thanks button or don't.

​

EMBRYO-4.0 is a continuation of EMBRYO-3.2, based of Samsung leak UCLF5. So this is basically, a touchwiz interface with very little theming. EMBRYO-4.0, departs from it's previous versions, by being a very fat download. I have moved everything to /data partition, which mean you can delete the stuff that you don't want. This was mainly done, to give the option to you, instead of me dictating what should go in or not. But, Samsung and ATT bloat (except for a few apks), is definitely not there.

​

Please respect the work, give proper credits. You don't need permission, but don't just slap a theme on a apk, release it as a mod, I would be very pleased.

Note the default kernel with EMBRYO-4.0 is CYMBALINE-1.5, samsung kernels that came with the samsung ROM are provided here (the only thing different is a modded ramdisk to support init.d, adb root, bootanimation, etc..).

• [05-JUL-2012] STOCK UCLF5 Kernel with modded ramdisk. (Installation, just flash in CWM recovery). Download.

​

Please follow the installation instruction EXACTLY. Regardless of what you have read or followed, throw that away and please do NOT do any dark-side wipe, wiping cache 3x, etc, it is plain wasteful. If the recovery you are using is good, you should not have to do that.

Step 1) Backup, Backup. Do a Titanium Backup of all your apps. Do NOT backup system apps or data. I would also recommend a nandroid backup.

Step 2) Did you do Step 1)?

Step 3) Download the ROM. Please check the MD5SUM to be sure, the download link has the MD5SUM, added to OP.

Step 3a) Download any optional add-ons see the add-ons section. This way you can flash them right away.

Step 4) Copy the ROM and any add-ons you want to your internal or external SD Card. (if you downloaded them on a PC). Make sure you compare the sizes.

Step 5) Boot into recovery (the three finger salute or adb reboot recovery or if your existing ROM allows you to do that).

Step 6) In Recovery, go to "mounts and storage" and select "format /system" in the subsequent menu. Then select "yes" in the next menu that shows up. (NOTE: This is how it is in the recovery I use, yours maybe different, but the idea is format the "/system" partition).

Step 7) Then, issue "wipe data and cache" from the main menu. (The recovery I use does format "/data" partition and "/cache" partition in one shot, I use the touch recovery).

Step 8) Now, select the ROM zip (wherever you stored in Step 4)).

Step 9) Flash the ROM be patient....

Step 10) [OPTIONAL] Do NOT REBOOT yest. At this point flash any ADD-ON you want. This will replace any existing apps or mods that you want.

Step 11) Now you can Reboot.. Please BE Patient. You will see the touch lights light up (the cache is getting built). And then you should see the "Install Applications..." show up and all the apps that have been moved to data will be installed. DO NOT TOUCH ANY KEYS. Once it is installed, you will be presented with the Launcher Dialog asking you to pick the launcher you want. The ROM comes with the Galaxy S3 Launcher and the stock TWLauncher.

Step 12) As soon as you get the homescreen. Please "RESTART" the device, you need to do this to get the init scripts to run.

Step 13) I would strongly recommend making a TiBu backup as soon as you are done.

Step 14) Do any post installation tasks that you may need.

​

- Since a majority of the packages have been moved to /data. I would strongly recommend a TiBu backup, right away. As just in case you have to do a data wipe, you will get those apps back.

- The ROM does not come with any RADIOS, for good reason. It will leave your existing radio intact. See the radios section in this POST for all the available radios, they are all CWM flashable zips. Download, and flash in CWM, thats it.

- If you want to flash the stock kernel, flash it from the Kernels section. Again, is a CWM flashable zip. Download and flash in CWM that it, no extra steps needed.
