Forgive me if this is a silly topic but I’m very anxious to find an answer. I’m interested in flashing an international ROM to my At&t SGS3 specifically Foxhound (I love Foxhound). Of course I know that the international versions of the SGS3 are different than the American version. But Im curious if there is currently a way to flash them safely anyway. For example with the SGS2 I know that using hell raiser allowed safe flashing of international ROMs. Thanks in advanced guys.
Do not flash it unless you want a brick. Currently there is no way of hell raising anything.

Thanks for the tip.
I searched around for the differences between the I747 and I747M, and apparently it is the location... That brings up my question.
I got an I747M, but live in the US and am with AT&T. Should I be worried about anything?
Thanks!
EDIT: I have found that it is because I flashed KyanROM, which changed it from I747 to I747M. Is there any way to revert this change? I did try to change it in the build.prop, like a bunch of places said, but when I did, the phone would get to the Samsung screen the crash. I did a nandroid restore and everything was fine, except it is still showing I747M.
Nope.

Hey man, thanks for the info.
Is it common that this happens? Should I be downloading AT&T stuff, or I747M stuff, or are they the same always?
Thanks again.

So what modem would I flash? The I747 or the I747M?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium
It is no big deal I am with rogers and I flash i747 ROM all the times on my i747m
If a flash aokp or cm10 it shows i747 but if I flash stock it shows i747m. It doesn't change your modem or anything.

Flash only modems that are for your carrier.
The reason I asked that is because Kyan ROM is based on the 747m firmware. It still works with the 747, but the build.prop shows it as a 747m.

Exactly. Look at the title in the Kyan forum... notice the M after the 747?.. so.. youve entered the world of ROMs?.. time to study!! Read read and read again my friend or youll get flamed like crazy around these parts. The answer to this question and probably all your questions are available in Kyans forum.. theres a thing called the OP that has all the info you need about the ROM you flash.. make sure you read it in its entirety atleast twice before flashing , sop. The OP is the very first post.. also, how to get around your issue and get the AT&T bloat back is also found in that forum.. theres a search function that will reveal all your questions and dreams.. its like magic except its just the search function.

Thanks guys, I feel a little bit better about it now.
I am only worried about the model number, because I can't download any of the AT&T stuff from the market because it is restricted from I747M's (as they are Canadian, and AT&T has no use on those devices). Is there any way to change it back to I747 and get rid of the M? @daddymatt, I have spent a good 30 minutes searching, and can't find any way to revert it.
I did try to change it in the build.prop, like a bunch of places said, but when I did, the phone would get to the Samsung screen the crash. I did a nandroid restore and everything was fine, except it is still showing I747M.
Also, I will give thanks when I can. I am at my current daily limit now, so no worries, I haven't missed you.
You will need to use a i747 based ROM.

Or just edit the build.prop to say a 747

You've just made a mistake editing the build.prop. keep trying. Just keep a good nandroid handy. I don't know the exact edits because i haven't the need to do it, but i know your on the right track.

I've tried so many things, I just don't know anymore. I have tried just about everything I have found online too. I am even doing a cache clear before and after changing it.
If you have a link or ideas of what to change, please let me know. I am about to give up because I honestly have no idea where to go from here.
I will give ya thanks when I can too, I hit my daily max :/
Try changing device id to I9300 instead of I747. It's the international version and will serve the same purpose. Don't know for sure if this'll work, but i think I've seen it somewhere else.

I don't think it will work. Att uses i747m not the international version
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
How many lines in the build.prop did you change? I had to change 4 in order to get Bell mobile tv working while running an AT&T rom. Try this, change
- ro.product.name=d2att
- ro.product.device=d2att
- ro.product.model=SGH-I747
- ro.build.product=d2att
This should make your phone think it's an AT&T phone again, remember keep a nandroid handy just in case...
Hi mates you all alright?
I am just new to the Glide (from SE Xperia Mini Pro and Moto Droid Pro)
Have been using this phone for few days happily. And had been trying stock roms including AT&T and Rogers, GB and ICS
1. I just wonder if there is a trick to unlock the 2G/3G toggle function of stock AT&T ICS? I know its not a problem for Rogers Rom.
2. I also wonder if there is any method to enable the Service Mode *#*#4636#*#* and other #* menus? These are also working on Rogers but not AT&T
Thank you guys for enlightening me.
I think you need to deodex the rom and then flash toggle 2g

I guess I have been making a very stupid mistake, that I was not using the stock dialer to input this code.

Hi so this is my first thread. So I recently routed my gs3 with no problem, and I have CWM recovery v6. I tried to use the euroskank cm10 mod from the ROM manager app. Everything ran okay, but the one problem I'm having is the android keyboard stops working. I couldnt set anything up,so I had to restore to the stock ROM. Can anyone help me fix this? Thank you. Also, just to kill to birds with one stone, what is the best modem for the sprint gs3? Thanks a bunch!
Might just be a problem with the rom, did you read the bugs? Or did you clear all data before flashing?

That just sounds like a bug in the rom
Suppose so, a friend of mine can use the ROM with his GS3, but he has ATT. Maybe that's why his works

Wait, is the ROM in question even meant for the Sprint GS3? If not that could be a huge problem. Never ever flash a ROM from another carrier.
The ROM manager app gives me a selection of phones to flash CWM recovery with, and I chose the sprint GS3.

If your friend is running it on ATT, I would a assume that you're running 2 different ports of the same ROM. In that case each can have their own bugs and quarks.
And mine apparently won't let me use a keyboard, which makes it pointless anyway. So I should just find another rom specific to the sprint GS3. Know of any that I should look into?

I have an unlocked S3 for T-Mobile and want to use it on AT&T HSPA+ but when I do the phone is always running warm and battery drains. Is the fix for this to install an AT&T stock rom on it? Is that possible? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
You should continue to flash tmo ROMs only. The phone heating up should be an entirely different problem..
What ROM/kernel are you running? Are you over clocked? have you messed with voltage?
Just need a bit more info before we can help you. =)
