I have a Samsung Mesmerize on USCC now and not much as yet in Modding choices. Thinking about tradeing to Desire.
Is the Desire like the Galaxy S in that all carriers have different systems and require specific ROMS and or modifications need to be carrier specific.
I do see some here that do have USCC in the title.
Anyway long story short. If I do trade out, am I limited in the ROMS that will work to specific USCC ones or will most ROMS work across platform.
Thank you.

okay so im getting the sprint galaxy nexus soon and i just want to clarify a few things first off being rooting.
Rooting:
can you root the sprint galaxy nexus with (Galaxy Nexus Tool-Kit 5.7) and treat it as the CDMA/LTE model. in my mind it seems like this would work because it is a cdma/lte model but i just want to clarify that so i dont brick it.
Roms:
from my understanding the verizon roms cant be flashed on the sprint version because it will cause it to not beable to make calls is this accurate and if so i really think XDA needs to add a third development section for sprint so everyone doesnt become confused as i am already and i have a decent understanding of these things as i have had the evo and evo3d and rooted both with no problems
please xda make a third development section for the sprint GNEX
I'm seriously considering purchasing the T-mobile Note II (SGH-T889), but I realize that it has some hardware variations compared to the international version and other US versions. If I want to flash a ROM, will I have to find one specifically made for the T-mobile variant or will I be able to use any of the ROMs in the development section? Will developers simply make them universally compatible?
T Mobile t889 roms only that's not to say a little while down the road the devs won't be able to find out how to flash ROMs across variants

...you do know that sense is only for HTC phones right... and it is closed source so porting sense to a non-HTC phone would cause the dev to get into legal problems and not only that but it is near impossible to do it because the phones are too different. so in short there is not Sense based rom for our phones.
Depending on what custom Rom you use, not tw based. You can get your phone to look like a sense. I've done it practically mirrored the HTC.one x. Themes and launchers can do this

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've seen it done for other phones but it isn't worth the trouble tbh
Agreed Crixley...
Sense seemed to make more problems than it solved for me...
And after 3 HTC devices. ...I converted to this device. ..and IMHO....Touchwiz just kills sense without question. ...g
I'm in the market for a new device. My S3 is dying, and I want to get a new device. I am aware that the Nexus 5 and other smartphones are coming out, but they won't have the ROM maturity that I'd get from day one with either a S4 or HTC One. So, my question is as follows:
Which phone has better ROM support at this point, the S4 or the One? What I mean by support, is that which one would be more stable, and more "open". I know they are both Qualcomm, so I'd imagine they'd be equally as stable and open.
Thanks for any suggestions/advice!
Both are excellent phones and you can't go wrong with either one. Your decision should depend on the top three or four things you want from a phone. Both have reputable devs and themers. I originally wanted the HTC one, but I'm very happy with the s4 (either on stock TW or GE)

The T-Mobile s4 has more devs and roms.

Hello. I'm a new owner of an HTC One VX and I just succeeded in unlocking and rooting the device. I'm now looking for a custom ROM to flash. As far as I can tell, all of the ROMs posted on the xda forum for the device are based in some way on HTC Sense. I'm hoping for something that's more like stock Android. My question: are the ROMs developed for any other variants of the HTC One compatible with the One VX? Anyone tried flashing a ROM listed under another HTC One device and had success?
Nope. You can't and you shouldn't. The phones are different. You'll end up bricking your phone. Better leave it to the devs to port the ROMs.
