i was wondering if the gs3 has custom basebands or custom modems i remember on my galaxy S vibrant had different modems to choose from, but does gs3 have it? or do we not have any sources or leaks to work with.
Somebody posted a nandroid of the new rom tmobile release i jus have to pull the modem

Normally I Would't Suggest Flashing another carrier ROM but For Some reason People have Figured it out on the Note 11 far the first time I'Ve Seen.So for my own curiosity and im sure others as well. Lets try to make a list of all the compatible non T-Mobile roms for the Note II.
AT&T - JELLYBEER
At&T - JELLYBAM
AT&T - CleanRom
N7105 - International LL1
AT&T - JellyThunder
If you are new to flashing, please dont be the first to try new Roms. And apparently no 7100 roms!!!
Ive read somewhere we can flash any US Variant Rom as long as no modem or radio is included. But I find that hard to believe. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
If I'm missing any Rom's, will happily add to list
I use the international LL1 for the N7105. Works like a dream.

Thanks for input. Now have to ask why did you flash those specific ones? Does it say compatible in thread or just flashed and worked

I know for a fact (as I have tried myself) AT&T, T-Mobile (obviously), 7105, and Sprint. Sprint did require a kernel flash (boot.img). Otherwise a modem flash is required (unless the Rom does not flash the modem, then you need not flash a modem)
Basically here is how it works:
T-Mobile : ROM
AT&T: ROM, modem
7105: ROM, modem
Sprint: ROM, modem, kernel
I would guess, Verizon would work the same as Sprint.

EDIT: had to add AOSP kernels are not the same as stock Samsung kernels. Basically for AOSP kernel get the boot.img from your CM7/AOKP/PA whatever AOSP ROM for your phone (I took it from madmack's CM10 and applied it to the Sprint PA ROM)

There is a dev, Teshxx who is doing a fine job of porting international and roms from other carriers. He uses the rom for a base and adapts it to the T889. The N7105 roms are stock samsung, no carrier bloat.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium
Hi there guys. I too can confirm this. The all us carrier deal anyway. There are easy ways and there are better or right ways. The easy way only really requires a few lines swapped and or deleted on the rom you want and the rom your specific device requires. I've tested twice. Sprint and att via testing the two ports done by a few verizon users . However from what we've experienced ( mind you this us s3 and not note 2) you don't have to flash or worry as far as I've noticed any radios or rpm as those are written to the partitions via your ota or flashing seperately ..And we also flashed different kernel. This is just more testimony and not saying I know any facts or that I personally port or figured this out on my own. A couple of very nice devs in our verizon forum shared this info. And now many are succeeding. Thanks and hope I'm not jacking your note 2 thread. Lol

Great thread as I was wondering which ROMs I could flash safely and which I couldn't on my T-Mobile T889.
What kernel is everyone using on their Tmobile Note II, when its needed? Perseus?
Also can someone shoot me a link to the modem they flashed on their Tmo Note II?
Thanks

I am running jellybam from AT&T with its kernel. I was using the newest radio from the dev section but lost Bluetooth on my phone. Reverted to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33308483 and all is working now.

Okay, so when you go to flash a T-Mobile rom you should probably update to the latest radio right? Also how do you flash radios?
Thanks

I would probably try but I reverted to stock trying to fix my GPS issue but it still would not work. It may just be me with the issues. As for how to flash a radio. There are update.zip files that you can use in the dev section.

You can try flashing the newer radio and see of you feel a difference. It depends on your location whether the newer baseband will give better results or not.

Just use the simple tmobile galaxy s3 modem flasher tool by the Sonic team which you can run directly from clockworkmod and it lets you select all the different modems for you to try out and it tells you latest ones too. I always just use that one simple tool that can be ran from clockworkmod or twrp and it saves hassles since it already has all the modems included for flashing so u don't have to download individual zips
Hi i just got a GS3 from Claro Puerto Rico and its model is i747m lte and im not shure witch rom i can install on it i was checking the at&t roms but at&t is i747 so im confused here i would like to know what rom is safe to flash on my GS3 i747m.
You should be able to flash Any ROM just back up or APN settings and do some reading on the different radio files and I believed u will be fime

i have my t-mobile t999 gs3 and i know what i can flash but this is new to me Claro was using the international version first but now they have LTE and changed the model to i747m,i think this version is not the same as the at&t version so i dont know if the roms are compatible and dont want to risk a brick.
All ROMs in this forum are compatible with your s3.

Just in case some of you may not know, but none of the CWM or TWRP
flashable custom roms here in XDA come with a modem/radio.
So what happens is, when flashing any of these zip file custom roms they do not
over write the existing modems since these custom roms have no modem in em.
That''s why it's safe to flash the i9505 roms, however this does not mean that you can flash any custom
roms, only certain Galaxy S4 roms are safe to flash unless the devs port a Verizon rom for example.
I already flashed the i9505 rom and it worked just fine, but basically it's not much if any different than the M919 Tmobile
roms. There is one thing which you will loose if you do flash a i9505 rom, you will no longer have wifi calling.
Good luck.

Ooo, did not know that the modem had no roms, now I know, and that's right, you have reason, be careful with the roms you flashed, should be similar to international models. In this case I337 and M919 models are similar to the I9505 international rom quadcore (i9500 not! Octa) And finally, if lost wifi calling, but in my country MX, operators do not have that yet, maybe in some future , but when you need it the original rom I can find it.
Greetings.

You don't have to make sure because NONE of the custom roms come or came with a modem image.
All the developers have know not to include modems in any of these custom roms for many years now.
First off I own a Metro t999N
Its GSM and uses lte data from T-Mobile towers... we all know that
We all know that they use tmo Lte towers and this device is a lte model.. that's clear.
Everyone flashes T-Mobile roms on the metro s3 and Metro s4 with no issues .... but I know with past experience owning a t999L you had to stick to the Lte model Roms the t999 roms wont flash on a lte device.
There wasn't any info I could find about my t999n as to if we use t999 or t999L based roms on the New metro GSM Lte s3
I'm assuming it would be the t999l roms and generally I don't ask such a basic question...but I couldn't find a straight Google answer
But I know from past better safe to ask.

There are no T999 l/n/v ROMs. It's all T999. You guys just have separate firmware (bootloader, baseband, etc). That firmware is in the linked thread.
If the ROMs aren't flashing for you, it's probably because you're using TWRP for the T999 l/n/v, or whatever is out there. You need to use the original T999 recoveries to flash T999 ROMs.
Does that answer your questions?
Yup, it's all stated in the thread. I believe the recovery to use is covered in the faq, as well as anything else to look out for. You did read all OP's in their entirety, didn't you?

Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda app-developers app
Don't install recovery using Rom or goo manager. Sure it'll work on your device, but many of the roms here are coded to check the device and/or recovery. Since none of the devs knew to add yours, most didn't, so even though the Rom would work, it won't flash unless you have the d2tmo recovery.
If you have further questions about it, may I suggest asking in that thread? That way others who might search for similar info can find everything in one place.

If you are stuck on Edge, then check your imei. Don't post it, just tell me if it's zero.
Depending on the Rom, it's not going to always display what you expect. This should also be covered in the faq, Ali g with how to tell your true connection
