No you can not possibly do that! Your device is completely different from the galaxy s3 for various reasons, by flashing a rom of other smartphone the only result will brick your device

When used in reference to consumer electronics, a "brick" describes an electronic device such as a smart phone, game console, router, or tablet computer that owing to a serious misconfiguration, corrupted firmware or a hardware problem, can no longer function. The term derives from the vaguely cuboid shape of many electronic devices (and their detachable power supplies) and the suggestion that the device can only function as a large, heavy object.

Sure hold on here whilst I flash the latest .ipsw file from Apple. I doubt that will brick my phone, after all, they are both smartphones!
But Is there any rom which is the same as the S3 firmware and needs no rooting

I dont think you are intelligent enough to do much with a phone.
But at least your next topic cant be as stupid as your first.
The one sought in the forum, there are custom rom leaving his appearance with the S3 S2.
Now this is really determined to install the rom S3 in S2, would you donate to your phone than using it with a paperweight in the future.

You have to find a Rogers rom somewhere, maybe on www.sammobile.com/firmware and flash it with Odin. Or else google around. This forum is for the Inernational version of the S3. Look in the US/Canadian thread.
You`re in luck here you find info:
PDA:I727RUXLF3
CSC:I727RRWCLF3
Phone: I727RUXLF3
Android Version: 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich
source: Samsung Canada
*facepalm*
Well that explains your problem.
That rom is for the INTERNATIONAL VERSION ONLY.
This forum is for the INTERNATIONAL VERSION ONLY.
your need the version for the north American version.

See post 4 above and find a rogers rom in the US forum and flash it with Odin. I would get a jig to get into downloadmode.

Best bet is to head over to the forum for the at&t, sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon versions, nothing you will get here will work for your phone, they all share the same hardware whereas the international one is completely different.

The you'll need a jtag. Search for a repair shop nearby and ask them if they can jtag your phone. Costs a few bucks but allows you to access download mode again.

If an app is configured to only work on ICS and down and not on JellyBean, what would it take for me to make it so that it'll work on JB? Or you know...if someone can do it lol. But I'd prefer to do it myself. Thanks!
Android is retrocompatible, so, if an app is developed to work with ICS as minimum version, it SHOULD work on JB.

It shouldn't take you too long to port it over. Some apps won't require any modifications to work on the new firmware, while others do.

Hello all, I have finally decided to root my S3. I just have one question though, what app would be good to backup all my settings, pics, apps and everything else? Also what is a good Rom to use that's fast and based on jellybean?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
You can use titanium backup. As for the ROM it depends, some prefer stock with custom kernel others prefer asop ROMs. You should browse the forums and decide for yourself. Also next time search and only make a new thread if you can't really find an answer, the moderators may get mad at you.

What's the difference between asop and stock with different kernel? I read some older topics and just go too confused.

read the OP. it explains the different naming schemes of various different ROMs. it also lists all the roms that fall into different categories of aosp, aokp, stock, and others.

actually jjegan is right. due to hardware differences, you need to check out the appropriate forum for your phone. you will turn your phone into an expensive paperweight if you flashed any roms or kernels in this forum.

Hi guys .. as i read in samsung that SII (PLUS) will have original 4.2.2
but sII will not
that gives a question that is both have same hardware as i know .. so maybe we can have a Port of it
Or we can't ?
S2 plus has different hardware so No'it's not possible.
It's the third thread i have seen about porting 4.2.2 from s2 plus.:banghead:

Is there any site that shows what is the latest official rom that i9100 can get?
I mean what was the latest rom that samsung pushed to its i9100 devices?
I am not talking about custom roms.

samobile gives you rom files... but it doesnt say its the latest.
So if I search in samobile for i9100 I get the highest which is 4.1.2 - Is this is highest android version for i9100?
And I did search in Google before posting this thread.
Thanks
Just look for the highest number (4.1.2) and that'll be the newest....
There is debate as to whether the S2 will receive 4.2.2 at all, and I'd eat my old galaxy W if the S2 got 4.3 or 5.0......

Lol....I really don't think that there's any danger that I'll *have* to.
Samsung has updated the S2 more times than any other phone, and now it's 2 generations out of date (see S3 and S4).......
As good as this phone is, Samsung wants us all to buy something newer.....to spend more money with them. The S2 isn't even available in most of the network carriers stores here in the UK anymore.....
No new S2s = no more support/updates
