Currently flashed CM10 tmo variant on my i747M Galaxy s3 . I have no issues with using the tmo variant, I want to jump back onto the at&t variant but is there any complications to it? Or can just flash an cm10 nightly on without doing anything out of the ordinary for flashing a rom

You sure everything will be fine?

There are many of us here with i747ms running AT&T ROMs without issue, myself included. You will be fine.

I know that, my question was since my phone identifies itself as a T999 should there be no overthrown issues going back

you're looking too deep into this process. if you've done all the important things like make a nandroid and back things up then there is no reason to worry about anything.
Looking around and cannot find.
Appreciated!

They are not released yet but should be on the Samsung servers soon for download.
I plan to try and root inject them like Mr.Robbinson did for the S3.
I Have the checkfus software checking Samsungs servers like 12 times a day lol.

Thanks! I foolishly installed gapps 4.2 and didn't backup and can't really remove them. Everything is working so I can't complain.

im sending one to drop box for rogers as we speak, might be another hour before its up. this can be restored from twrp and is new (original) rom with root.
Diference between twrp and cmw?

Nevermind. Twrp installed. Just need the file. Thanks

I'm new to installing roms on the s3. I've had many different roms on my old Desire so I'm not entirely new to this, just had a few questions.
How easy is it to lose your imei number when flashing a new rom?
Is it dependent on anything specific?
Easy to fix if it does happen?
Anything else I should be worried about before flashing?
I'm looking at testing out cm10.1 and Task's rom as well as a few kernels.
Thanks.

Imei loss is random.
Best thing to do is to back it up. Easier to back up than to inject it back in manually. (Still not overly difficult but always have a backup)
Nothing to really worry about. Just don't flash a ROM not intended for your phone.

What's the best way to back it up? Galaxy toolbox?

Actually most people loose IMEI going from a custom ROM to a stock based ROM.

So say im just stock att and rooted, and wanted to flash say csrom. do u think i would lose my imei? I had a gs3 last year. I flashed cm10 from the stock rom, then two days later flashed another rom cant rem which one. thats when i lost my Imei. fixed it. then just used my one x. til last week when i got another gs3.. its rooted and and stock right now. guess i just need to back up etc. before flashing just to be sure. etc..
So I guess this is just a problem we sometimes need to live with? Just back it up and restore as needed.

Sounds like it. I have been flashing roms and since my first android, htc hero.. never had a bricked phone or anything etc.. before that win mobile, again never had any issues. as long as you read and pay attention all will be good. I want to flash a rom on this s3 but gotta find the time to back up and such. kinda hard with a wife that's a RN working 12 hour shifts and 3 kids lol..
Yea, same here. I've flashed so many roms and kernels on my old s3. Had no worries ever about changing the partition table sizes and am familiar with adb just haven't found the time to look into all of the s3 stuff yet. I've had the phone since launch but just rooted it for the first time a few days ago.

custom i.e not based on a samsung ROM. It's not common but more common going from custom (aosp, aokp,CM) to any TW type ROM. Just back it up anyway, even though you more than likely will never have to worry about loosing it.

Yes. You might need to flash a d2att recovery to avoid getting a status 7 error

This is a recovery you can flash. This will flash over your d2can with d2att.

You can check your build prop or just flash a ROM. It should work. Or flash that file anyway.

So I was on wicked ROM and was getting bad data speeds inside my home.
So I switched to INFAMOUS ROM and was getting a lot faster speeds.
So I compared their build files in system and I found that these settings from infamous was what giving me better speeds.
I went back to wicked and changed the data tweaks and was getting better speeds.
Of course some may vary.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Wicked has stated something along his ROM and data I think, may be wrong but he doesn't add those lines for what ever reason. Many do add them cause they believe they work.

Read the first few posts in the baseband thread for more on this and how you might be able to make it even better.

Yup, but depending on your area, are they really the best they could be?

But data/ internet seems to work. Stays in data roaming most of the time. Was on swamp monster and stock. Sprint couldn't fix it either. All of a sudden it started doing this. I also have a second note2 with SwampMonster and that phone works great. Also have a s3 on wicked sensations that works great as well.
Any ideas?

Are you in an area where Sprint is currently upgrading their towers/service? That has been known to cause issues.

Best advice would be to find one of the signal checker apps in the play store and see what signal strength you're getting. If it's weak you know the problem is with Sprint. If it's strong then you would need to look deeper into your phone/ROM/firmware etc.
