Yep, it will work identical to an i9100 with regards to root/flashing etc... without NFC. But then have a look on xda for 'i9100P NFC patch', and it'll turn up a flashable patch to get your NFC working again good luck!

Hi there again! Reporting back to say all went well.... Apart from the nfc! =( No option exists in the settings menu! So i did search on this and found somebody called jthatch12 who created some type of an nfc enabler for kitkat, But the file isn't available for download now (dead link) but even if the file was available and all, would it work with my version of cyanogenmod?? (im using the latest Cyanogen 11-20140214-NIGHTLY) the thread i was looking into was this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1822447

Anybody?

I have already rooted the phone in hindsight I should have mentioned that in the first post.

Found that you can through ROM Manager. However, it doesn't show my phone's model number. It shows the Epic 4G Touch, which is supposedly similar. Any idea if that will work?
Sent from my SCH-R760 using xda app-developers app
So, nobody has any idea? I'm open to any recovery as long as it works. I can do backups, and flash other ROMs.
Sent from my SCH-R760 using xda app-developers app
I tried most of the ones listed in Rom Manager, and none of them worked.
Well there's a step in the right direction. At least now I know that won't work. Now just to find something that will.
Sent from my SCH-R760 using xda app-developers app
So has anyone found an annswer??
I know I haven't. I'm almost about to give up that my phone will never have ICS, or any newer version.

Find anything that would work yet? I'm having the same issue with another generic carrier. Can't get a recovery for the phone yet. Its great to have super user but if I cant get into recovery what's the point! Does anybody have any thoughts on this yet? Can't seem to find an answer anywhere! There has to be other generic CDMA rooters out there! Come on guys!
You're not getting any helpful answers because this is not the RCH-R760 forum. This is the I9100 forum which is different hardware to your device.

Not to dig up an old thread, but I'm still having this same exact issue. I have a US Cellular Galaxy S2 - sch-r760 device that is fully rooted. However I cannot for the life of me figure out how to successfully installed ClockworkMod! I have Rom Manager on the device and I have flashed cmw that way ('galaxys2' option.) But when I try to boot into recovery there is no option to take a backup and even trying to load a custom rom via the GUI on the device, it appears it attempts to boot up and install - but then it immediately restarts and loads the Stock Rom.
I have an update.zip in the root directory. Also I've been having intermittent problems with the Google Play Store/Services... I have to constantly wipe the data from those apps and remove my account and sometimes even factory reset my device in order to get a wifi connection. I'm not sure if this is related to the issues I'm having, but I thought it was worth mentioning. I've changed and even deleted the hosts file as some people have suggested, which works temporarily, but after awhile the date on my phone gets out of wack and the Play Store and even internet connections seem to go in and out.

I hope all the informations will be helpful...And thanks you very much by advance...
PS : I'am from France , tell me if I did something wrong
Don't take this wrong but what you did wrong was buy a knock off clone device. There is almost no help here for them. You will need to go to Chinese forums for them.

Thanks alot
Try this for root. If it works just use goo manager to install twrp recovery.
BEAST......... that is all
*sigh* here we go again...
I really doubt that you have searched much considering you didn't find any information to help you root.
Root is a very popular phenomenon and it's question has been covered probably thousands of times.
How do you know about Odin? Didn't you check if there was a root method explained with Odin?
No one here is going to give an explaination to this, so i suggest you start searching and reading.
Best of luck
Thanks for answar, and sorry if that questen had been asked many times, but if it is so easy to find a thread, link me one? if it is so easy it shouldent take more then a few seconds? ive searched and i cant find any, and i am sorry for that, but that dosent men i dont deserve help ?
Philz kernel mate. Don't need evil Odin for this. No link I'm lazy.

Hey Bomsen123 ,
You can use Siyah Kernel :cyclops:
http://www.gokhanmoral.com/?cat=5
Yes it is important to root before you flash/install a custom ROM
If you want to flash a ROM you can go to the recovery --> Install .zip from sd card--> select your ROM--> Install!!
Thats how you do it
Regards

But... but... This is just... lazy . Seriously you don't even have to use the search function, just read the stickied guides.
