Hey guys .... I wanted to get some help on my current situation...I'm currently flashed over to metro PCs running the goodness fh13 Rom on my E4GT phone everything works for me even mms ... Best Rom out there in my OPINION...Any ways I successfully flashed the AOKP jb Rom and cm10 the other day with no brick issues etc. In doing so I lost my 3g service ...couldn't figure out how to get to work on jelly bean ROMS. IF someone can enlighten/help me on what I did wrong ,or have a fix, or if these ROMS AREN'T COMPATIBLE WITH my kind of service I would be very thankful...Thanks for reading
If you search no data on cm10 I started a thread if you flash the alternative carrier fix that will take care of your data if you have any issues with MMS oak. has made a zip to flash that will take care of that for you in dev thread if you need help feel free to ask

Looking to put a better rom than the stock, bloated one that came from US Cellular. I'm in the states, and every working rom I find seems to allow calls or data and can't connect to my network. What's the best rom to run on my phone?
Bump, anyone? I read somewhere I need to flash the radio to get it to work, but I don't know where to find the file for the radio to be flashed. I wouldn't mind using the cyanogen mod even with it's horrible tearing issues if I can get the phone to actually work.

I am Having The Same Problem With My WS I am Also On Us Cellular And Would Love To Hear If There Is A Fix For This yet
curious
US Cellular is CDMA, right? If so, you want to look into PRL rather than radio. Stock radio should be fine... PRL [if your downloaded rom supports it] is what will get your data working I think. Also, when you guys power up into hboot does it show marvelc or marvelct? If either of you two care to, pm me and I'll try to work a rom up fot you.

Hey guys... tested the "stock" rom I made for you guys, and it works on VM USA as well. I don't suppose anyone would be brave enough to test the VM USA one on their US Cellular phone [of course make nandroid before test, then flash back to it on conclusion]? It sucks really; VM disabled FM Radio and Wifi Hotspot [which I am re-enabling for a final release on that thread... but I think I'll build on your rom... It's just cleaner. Probably will make a debranded thread so the "stock" threads can fade down the development thread. So ideas of what you guys would like to see?
ie
Odexed and/or Deodexed?
Apps that should be added?
ie Terminal Emulator, Adobe Flash [full to replace lite], WiFi tether, etc.
Bloat you'd like removed?

Tested the Vm Rom on my us cellular worked fine. Was weird seeing the Vm boot up. But like u said no fm n WiFi hotspot on it sux. Now as for wut I would like to see for a new Rom. Data2sd would be nice I know I have seen that after awhile it starts to lag a bit. But I would still like to have the option to use it or least test it. Unbranded. Deodex. All the stock uscell apps can go cuz I never use em anyways but if Ur building off my original Rom I think the only uscell app I hadn't removed already was tone room deluxe. And like I had said to you earlier once I get going on my own Rom and get better at it. We can just go hog wild

Hey Guys, I had upgraded to the official Jellybean and then yesterday finally rooted my phone. I wanted to flash the redruM ROM onto my phone...long story short after the Flash through Mobile ODIN my phone did what I can only assume is soft brick, but I found another thread with a stock rom and was able to restore the phone back to ICS now running the redruM rom. My question is can redruM work with JellyBean or at least a Jellybean ROM or do I have to pick one or the other? I saw another developer that listed like 5 different ROMS he had installed...can you have more than one rom? I searched and couldn't find and answer for these questions...any advice is welcom because I loved several features of JellyBean that I lost in reverting to ICS with redruM.
Thanks
Jeremy

you linked a sprint rom, you need to be a alot more careful flashing things. You can not have 5 different roms. This is the Redrum JB rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750270 and can not stress enough, read more.

Huh then I wonder if I just put the wrong link...because the ROM worked great once I recovered the phone back to stock with boot-stock-tmobile-sgh-t999 through desktop ODIN...when the phone rebooted...jellybean was gone and the redrum ROM was working just fine with the phone being moved back to ICS 4.0.4....
Regardless the crisis was averted and I've since moved over to Wicked Sensations JB and was even able to backup the "Awesome Beats" program from the redruM ROM and now have it running with wicked....so I'm happy!
Now if I could just get rid of the screen burn that was on the phone when I bought it that I didn't notice!
Thanks for your advice guys...
What you wrote makes no sense, but...
Why are you over on the Sprint forums flashing roms to your phone when you clearly have little knowledge on what you're doing, lol? If you have any questions PM me or someone who seems knowledgeable enough to help you. I fear your phones life.

Not sure what didn't make sense to you...
I was able to get my soft bricked phone into download mode and was able to flash a stock rom from ODIN on my desktop and when the phone booted back up the build was 4.0.4 and was successfully running the redrum rom that originally caused the problem...
Like I said...I probably posted the wrong link to the Sprint ROM as I just did a search for the redrum rom and picked the first one that came up...so my bad I probably posted the wrong link...
Once jellybean was gone after the flash back to stock redrum worked fine...and based on what I'm gathering from you guys is a Sprint ROM won't work on t-mobile phone...well what I'm telling you is that it worked fine after Jellybean was gone...there was a problem with the redrum rom and Jellybean.
But none of that matters..my phone is fine and running a great ROM that I am thoroughly enjoying.
Hope that clears it up...
Hello all, I hope I won't get too much flak for creating this thread but I'm hoping to save some time and effort if some of you are willing to help me out here.
My buddy had asked me recently if I could help him use his phone as a hotspot when he goes on vacation, and I suggested that he install a custom rom to get that function since for some reason a Sprint rep told him he couldn't do it (not sure on the whole story with that...).
Anyway, I'm not really a newbie on rooting/flashing as I have an older Galaxy S1 device that I constantly work on, but on the other hand that's about the only device I have experience with.
My questions are:
1) Is rooting/installing a custom rom the best way for him to use his phone as a hotspot? It seems to be built into every rom that I've had on my device.
2) What are the most popular (and stable) roms available for this device? I'm asking because I won't see him enough to flash updates and he's not really the type to do that.
3) Are there any serious risks to rooting/flashing this device? I'm spoiled with my older Galaxy S1 phone that has no problem going from rom to rom like it was it's job. He'll probably be upgrading soon, but I still don't want to break it.
Thanks for any input. Oh and I don't know if this matters, but I'm almost positive he's on stock ICS right now.
1. The hotspot app won't work on stock because he needs the plan with sprint to use it. There are 3rd party apps out there that can use your phone as a hotspot. Most roms have the wifi hotspot check disabled so you can use the app the rom came with. Be warned if sprint catches you tethering too much data they could cut you off.
2. Maybe look into the blu kuban rom. It's very stable, awesome battery life, and looks awesome. It also has a built in updater in case there is an update.
3. If you read the instructions you should be fine. There's really no downside besides the emmc brick bug which can render your phone useless but most (if not all) kernels have this patched. Also remember that this phone has the recovery image packed with the kernel.
Hope this helps.

If you install stock/rooted gb27 jb you can use the EmperorX 4g hot spot mod.
Look up Emperor X in apps and themes, its not too complex to get working.

The blu kuban rom looks good, but I didn't see any JB roms that looked all that great (feel free to correct me) and I see that Cyanogenmod doesn't officially support this device for some reason. Are there any mostly stable 4.1 or 4.2 roms that you would recommend or is ICS the way to go?
edit: I wasn't looking in the 'original development' forum and just noticed there's a lot of good 4.2 roms that I'm used to like slim, AOKP, etc, now my question is if I wanted to flash a new rom is it the same as I do on my phone- wipe data/cache/davlik then flash rom/gapps and reboot? Is it that simple on this phone too?

If you have CWM 5 (gb or cm9) or CWM 6 (AOSP-based jellybean) you can just flash rom and gapps in recovery
If you do not have CWM 5 or 6 (anything touchwiz ICS+), you should use Mobile Odin or (less conveniently) PC Odin to flash the EL26+cwm kernel, then boot to recovery by holding vol+ and power. You can flash anything in EL26 recovery without incident
Hello all. i have used the search function but have not been able to find a definitive answer to what im trying to achieve. i have been through so many ROMS ICS and JB of course JB being my favorite but most of them have bugs that i just dont have time to deal with such as speaker/gps problems and other minor issues. I am currently running cm10 wild for the night JB rom, and i would like to go to gb27 stock w/root doesnt have to be official either... i just want everything to work with minimal work. i have seen alot of conflicting instructions so i was hoping someone could point me to a thread containing this info in detail along with files. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Well the obvious method, and the simplest would be to use the stock rooted one click to flash in the prerooted software. It will flash in all needed partitions in one swoop. Seeing as only JB modems work on stock TW based Roms. Hope this is what you are asking. I just used this method my self

so the problem is pretty self explanatory if you read the title. I keep losing my 4g when i switch to a custom rom. Specifically a custom 4.2.2 rom like
slimrom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277770
or
paranoidandroid
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2118370
both of them say that they support 4g but when i go and install them i lose my 4g and my 3g is spotty sometimes.
I live in an area with a strong 4g signal and used to drive to and from work with 4g on all the time. Now i have 3g and it goes out sometimes.
So than i am left having to reinstall stock with
[ROM][RESTORE][5-12-13]Back to UNROOTED Stock with Auto Flash Count Reset
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086769
with the root.zip so i can have superuser and than install TWRP with goomanager so i can get my custom recovery back.
If i dont restore my phone back to stock with all that comes in that custom zip i wont get my 4g back even if i clear out slimroms and just install a stock 4.1.2 rom.
so what am i doing wrong?!
It would also be a great bonus to me if someone can also explain to me why i dont get MMS in any of the 4.2.2 roms as well.
What i have tried so far...
1. I have tried using "pimp my rom" to get to the hidden menu and that didnt work
2. i have my msl and tried to mess about with ##3282# using this little tutorial and it didnt work

3. I have reinstalled just a plain stock rom (not listed above) after backing up a custom 4.2.2 rom with nandroid and resetting the network mode back to lte/cdma from automatic and than restored the 4.2.2 rom. That didnt work
I would like a SOLID, DEFINITIVE, CONCRETE answer on what is going wrong and how to fix this problem please.
Nice rant. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42978776
A little reading goes a long way. In case clicking is too much effort I'll summarize. A recent change to CM 10.1, the base for all of our 4.2.2 Roms, broke 4g. they are looking into it. You can locate a nightly before 5/28 or stick with TW if it is a deal breaker. Have a nice day

even though your answer is packed with sarcasm ill still accept it. thx for your help. I dont read that thread as i have no interest in nightlies because i want a daily driver. I didnt know that they use nightlies to make the custom roms. i thought it was just stable CM10.1 only. Anyways thx again.
