So a friend of mine told me i could flash roms from other carriers is this true? He has the gs3 from t mobile but i don't want to flash a rom from t mobile if it could possibly brick or cause problems.

He's wrong. Unless a ROM is ported, it runs a risk of being incompatible and could potentially brick your phone. Even then, a ported ROM may come with certain bugs &/or stability issues.
This is especially true for ROMS intended for the International GS3.
ROM - OdexedBlue
Baseband - LJ7
Kernel - Stock LI3

.Not true. May come with bugs but flashing roms for another US variant of the S3 is safe just make sure there are no modems in it. As long as its for a US Gs3 than its safe. Open the zip and if all you see is META-INF,system and boot.img you will be fine flashing it. Bugs can be expected tho and your screen orientation in landscape mode will probably be flipped. The part about the intl version is true tho. Dont flash those.

So it will be ok to flash a ROM for a GSM phone in a CDMA phone?
Like Tmo or ATT on Sprint?

Here is a good example: there is a note 2 ROM that is said to be usable across all carriers posted in the dev section. However many users see a lot of bugs with flashing it (signal drops is a big one). Phone works, just not as expected or usefuly.

Not a good example as the note 2 has many differences and is alot harder to port(hence the instability). Theres alot to change like screen size, a different processor etc. This will at least run and data will probably work but its not guaranteed. It will not brick you though.

That's good to know. I knew about the baseband part already, but got the rest of my information from reading the sticky thread in Android Development about how not to brick your phone. I've flashed a tmo kernel (Morfic's Trinity) and experienced excellent results - right up until I tried taking ng a picture and discovered that the auto rotate was reversed and everything was upside down in landscape.
ROM - OdexedBlue
Baseband - LJ7
Kernel - Stock LI3
XDA Premium - Support our developers, modders, themers, and other contributors!
So if the auto rotation is backwards is there a way to fix that? Or is it something you would just have to deal with? I like some of the t mobile roms he uses but if its buggy i probably won't even bother. How can you tell if it is an international rom or us?

If there is a modem in the zip woukd it be safe to just remove it and flash a sprint modem after the initial rom flash or transfer a sprint modem into the zip file prior to a flash? Where would the "META INF" file be located to verify the flash would work?

META-INF is a folder at the base of the zip. If there is a modem you can remove it and replace with a sprint one to make it easier. You could also remove it but that might require a edit to the updater-script and that can be a pain in the ass if ur not real familiar with the process. If you choose to remove it then flashing another is not needed since itll be untouched. but as said probably easiest to just replace. I recommend 7zip if u need to do that

Hi, I might have a chance at getting a deal on a SGH-T989D from a former Telus customer. But almost all the roms here are described as being for the SGH-T989. Are these phones not the same where you can run the same roms? Definitely don't want to buy a phone that has no developer support even if the deal is good.
It can run the same rom.

It's really hard to get the ICS ROMs to work sometimes. They seem to be pretty finicky. I've read some users have had to do a Superwipe, flash the ROM, then wipe the data and cache again and reflash.

Hi, If you want to enable T-mobile wifi calling you can pull the kernel out from the tar.md5 by using 7-zip and/or WinRAR. You should see boot.bin and or boot.tar that will have the kernel modules KinetoGAN required for wifi calling. You should be able to fine a flash package in the T-mobile section that will enable the RIL switch. I would suggest this process:
Flash stock Telus
Flash CF root
Flash RIL package for T-mob
Flash the bin file you extracted from the T-mobile ROM package
Run the CF-unroot script.
Done!
PS: I stumbled across this whilst looking for info in the SGH-T989 for making a kernel for a non-developed Galaxy Tab 8.9 4G/LTE...I know a little about wifi calling so thought I would throw that in there for you goodluck
As of right now, the roms for your S3 are not meant to be used on other S3 variants. Bricks might happens or a soft one might happen. Before flashing a Rom make sure you are in the right development section an you read the entire op, twice. Until other devs or experienced users find a way to make them cross compatible, please refrain from using other carriers S3 roms.
Also wind mobile an Tmobile are interchangeable, just don't flash the modems.

I second this, guys PLEASE don't risk it. It is not worth it. Right now I think most devs are working on their own ROMs, but we should have a patch soon to allow cross-compatibility.

Could you start another thread for Windmobile Android Development?

Yes and no.
With the use of aroma-installer, we could set it up to detect your phone type (well, not we....I don't know that much about it but I saw the thread discussing this) and aroma would be able to install the necessary files based on your phone.
As of now, for instance, mine works across all GSM carriers. clark44 is current working to get everything switched up so it also works for Sprint (mostly appears to be the apk files and XML files) that are specific to the phone. As of now, he has it booting and working fine except there is a large rush of FCs on initial bootup but then everything runs fine.
I wasn't even aware you could make a patch to allow cross-compatibility! XDA never fails to surprise
Just a thought, but maybe they could do it like the SlimROM on multiple devices. He has a common base ROM and another flashable for each device supported. It works out perfectly and multiple ROMs for multiple carriers.
I figure it will be easier than doing it for different devices since I read that all the US variants are essentially the same. Not sure but worth a look.

Why not? I am using a custom rom and overclocked to 1890 at the moment.

I have not tried the toolkit.
If you are going to flash a custom rom just make sure it does not contain the boot, modem and amss file in the rom that you are flashing.

After doing some research it looks like I have to fix it through jtag.
I think I could do it, but you need some expensive jtag box that connects to the computer(It's called the Riff Box), but it would be cheaper if I just sent my phone into here it costs $60. Not ideal, but not a complete disaster either. Unless there is some other way to JTAG I am out of options.

Maybe a newb question but if all the Galaxy Note 2 devices are the same (hardware wise), can we just take a N7100 or sprint or att rom, unzip it, and remove the radio.img and kernel.img and flash over our cleanly wiped stock ROM?

Basically,
N7105, AT&T, T-Mobile Note 2's are compatible with one another.
The N7100 ROMs will nuke other Note 2's because of difference is hardware. DO NOT install. In it's current form, it will nuke your IME and you will not be able to get any service (I learned the hard way).
Once the N7105 gets AOSP, the other should quickly follow suit due the congruent hardware platform.
so i can go to the att section of xda adn download whatever roms there and install on my tmo version without any hassle or modification?
Pretty much yes. You'll have to install a T889 kernel and Modem after you flash it. Unfortunately, the AT&T ROMS don't really have that much more offer us.

Correct, they would need ported from 1 to 2, 2 to 3, etc... Whereas if they're in the same "family" all the differences lie in the kernel and radio. That stuff can be pulled out, reflashed on top, etc. Easy day

I can't say for sure, but it should work just fine.
Though I must admit, Sprint is the worst choice you could make for your first port attempt. You could have problems with both libs and kernels.

It will take much more than what is listed in the OP. I am not sure I have ever seen a ROM ported from Europe to the US (or the other way around).
As you mentioned, the processor and radios are different, but so are the system partitions. Anything is possible, but I think that would be a huge amount of work.
If you try this please be very careful. Many, many users have bricked their devices flashing a ROM from across the pond.

Hey all, I was hoping to get some assistance on an issue that myself and stratatak7 have been having. We're trying to port the Intergalactic ROM over to VZW. Following this guide, I was able to get it to boot and everything is functional including calling and texts, but we cannot get any mobile data. We've gone as far as replacing the kernel with a vzw kernel and replacing the modules in Intergalactic with modules from a vzw rom but mobile data refuses to work. I would be grateful for any suggestions because it seems that we are at a loss. Thanks

I have attached the files I use for my VZW port. I would change nothing except the ROM name in the build.prop for now and see how that goes. The eri.xml is compiled, so you can just add the file to framework-res with 7Zip. I started adding the csc files recently, but I don't think they really make a difference.

All the files were pulled from k3 ROMs yes. I've done the steps correctly to my knowledge, but I'll try again with your files when I get home and get back to you all. Thanks again.

Fantastic news; Using your files worked. I'm up and running with data and everything else seems to be working just fine. Thanks a lot for the help. Now i'm just gonna tinker around and find out where I went wrong.
When I flash a att rom on my t999 do I need to flash a tmo modem or just change the build prop and kernel of choice?

For your own personal use you should be able to get by with just changing your build.prop. Maybe the apn if you run in to any data problems. You should not need to flash a kernel or radio.

Ok well I'm working on getting Intergalactic to work on my T999. I guess i have some file editing to do.
When I flash this boot.img from SCH-i535 LK3 rom,G-Senor is opposite,for example,when browser shows Horizontal screen,address bar is on the top.Any body can fix this kernel? You can email me [email protected].

Using kernels from the other variants gives us this problem. Early T-Mo JB leaks that were ported over to our device had this bug present. From what I remember, it's due to a slight difference in sensors used or a difference in how the sensors were implemented within the kernel. Anywho, it should be possible to fix seeing as how kernel source has been released. May I inquire as to why you want to flash another variant's boot.img though?
Also, next time remember to post your questions within the question sub forum. This is the development sub forum and is intended for developers to post their work.

Any body can fix it,thanks!
You shouldn't be flashing anything made for a different phone. I really doubt any dev will try and port a kernel, but I may be wrong. You're lucky you didn't brick your phone.

sch-i535，sgh-i747，sgh-t999 and our device are the same，it dosn't matter.
Yes it does matter, different models, different carriers, different software. There may be little differences but there are still differences.

You keep thinking that and flashing crap from other devices, just don't come crying here when you're hard bricked. Not exactly sure why you want a stock kernel from another device anyways its not gonna be any different from the sprint s3 stock kernel except the different drivers needed for the different hardware.
I like to break stuff!

Yea theres no point in porting a stock kernel when theres already a working version of the same damn thing available.
