Do not flash the new ICS Leak! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Do NOT flash new ICS Leak, you will brick. We have had one hard-brick/hardware issue (don't know which one). I repeat do not flash. I myself encountered 8 soft bricks.

Anyone with a confirmed working flash out there?

I don't see why not. We have basically the same hardware. But you should probably wait for confirmation from someone else preferably over in the sr section.

yup do not flash a few bricks already, even wiped formatted all partitions and removed sd and sim. this will not flash to our phone without fuqing up

as a rogers person myself id also love to know if the cwm zip would work as almost all other att roms function on the i727r

Wait not all sr roms work with your phone? Why not? Every rom should. But if there is a difference between your phones, i suggest holding out. I am not sure if your phone shares the same compatibility like how ours and telus are the same. But anyways, you guys should definitely wait before jumping the gun.

It will probably be released in odin compatible form which means that likely we will have to wait until he releases helmdall files than somebody will have to make a cwm flashable version.

Of course when you flash with Odin it flashed the modem with it. So he's not mistaken'd.
The only way you can get an ICS radio to work with GB is if they modified it and removed the ICS RIL files in the modem and vice versa for ICS radio's to work on GB which most of the Dev's did in their ROM selection. That's why you see modified modem in their OP's at times.
I had ics on my telus phone and proceeded to restore my phone due to issues and when I rebooted I was running gingerbread.
So loaded up kies to do a update to ics and said I couldn't so i took a look and was running lle4 in gingerbread and everything ran fine.
I had to manually upgrade go ics through cwm after

lol You can odin to anything because stock odins carry ROM kernel modem and recovery...
However if you RESTORE from a BACKUP it may or may not give you problems. depends if the radio is modified or not.

port sprint jellybean offical update ?

tmobile offical update for jellybean wont be until the end of 2012, so cant we just port the official jelly bean update from sprint? cause basically the sprint gs3 and all other carriers are the same internally except for the radio. so as long as we just flash the rom without the radio, we should be good ? i have no idea. idk. just a thought
I'm sure someone will try it out soon, but I'm pretty sure you can flash Sprint and att roms no problem

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I believe all the carriers have pretty much identical hw except the radios. They most likely have the same partition mapping and so its probably ok to flash anothers roms.
That said, I would NOT do this without solid confirmation. Its basically an educated guess on my part. (A day or two ago someone said they flashed a Verizon rom and it worked, but again, I wouldn't take my or their word for it alone)

Ktoonsez built his touchwiz kernel off the sprint jb source so I'm with doc on this. It's most likely safe. I'm hoping T-Mobile will release their source soon.

Someone in general clashed Sprint and Verizon ROMs just fine. The only issue was getting radios to communicate with the software. I believe they got everything working on the Sprint ROM but Verizon had extra authentication methods.

The OP could be telling the truth, but till a credible member verify this, I'll question the validity of his/her post. Still, even if it turns out to be true, It remains to be a question whether a sprint rom is flashable on ours or not.

You can flash a sprint rom just fine. will stuff not work without modification? yes, but you will not brick it.
Now, if you flash an international rom to a US variant you will brick because the partitions are different. But everything is the same on the US variants. You do have to change things in the build.prop and make other mods to make it work on GSM. The only thing bad would be if the sprint rom flashes a modem but that wouldn't even brick because you could just flash the correct modem
I also want to mention I released a straight stock port on the ATT forums. This release will work for tmo as well. You just have to change the build prob stuff to show it as a t999 instead of a i747
All the S3 from US carrier have the same hardware. It could be ported just that the radios will have to be changed. I wont doubt it if they do it :good:
OK guys no more talking, that's the official JB for the sprint version, ported for the T-Mobile
Check out. Working great on my phone.

Its deodexed. Thats why rom devs and cooks or users can use this to modify it into custom ROM.
Use root explorer tool and take a peek or 7zip. Or double click the zip file in linux ubuntu etc.

Rushing, I flashed the IQ removed version, and know I want the ripple effect one (wife's phone, so I don't want to reflash cause I already updated all apps etc. etc)
If I want to change it, should I download the ROM with the ripple effect, and make a flashable for only the framework-res.apk, or there is something else I should do.
If you have the flash.zip for that mod (that includes the tethering IQ and ripple)
Thanks!!!
BDW, the ROM is working great. I installed others first but those still need some time to iron the mods they are getting into it, so I would rather stay in the safe side for now, until the others ROMs mature a bit.
