[Q] Audio - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I have an issue with audio. My phone is having trouble with people hearing on the other line. I had the same issue on my last S3 too. I had that one replaced. I think it is the rooting itself. I rooted and used the Verizon port on my S3. I don't know what to do. I really need help please? I cannot get through to other people on the phone.

Rooting didn't cause it. Maybe the Verizon rom did, though.
Troubleshooting basics. Work backwards until the problem is gone. By this I mean Odin a stock tmo image.

What rom r u using bro?
If cm then that is a known bug
And stick to T-Mobile roms.(not saying ports are bad)
Other roms from other carriers may work but I'd say you're risking it... Im trying to help
And as above odin back to stock T-Mobile and u should start off smoothly to flash "T-Mobile" roms. Lol

im new here!

guys im fixing to buy a white galaxy s2, what should i be concern about? is the root method easy, kernels, roms, is there anything hiding from samsung? like im coming from the amaze, htc havent released the wifi drivers for it and have no s-off, just wondering if you guys has had any problems with this phone, and how is the development here is, is it dead or alive?
Well look around lol. Rooting is easy as pie, everything else is based on your preference. Many solid gingerbread roms and kernels here
Were on the brink of some great releases...thanks to a recent ics leak there are all kinds of rooms being cooked up. I'd say its a great time to buy one within a few weeks we should have some great ics roms.

You don't need to worry about s-off like HTC phones. Just put the phone in download mode and flash clockworkmod, then install whatever ROM you want. It is much to root easier than any HTC phone I have rooted. Samsung also has released all source code up to the latest update. No one has had problems besides the same that exist with all phones. As for development with the skyrocket leak of ICS it is heating up faster than a junkies spoon (see thread below)

thank you guys i just got the phone, love it so far, i think more than the amaze..
im new to samsung though, i know its totally different on rooting and such,
ill start downloading drivers and start rooting!
As someone previously said, development is on the cusp of being current with every other major device. The ICS leak for the AT&T SkyRocket is very crucial for us because the phones are nearly identical.
With that said, the GB roms are all solid but not AOSP with the exception of a couple Kanged CM7's. Not sure if they're working entirely however. There is an AOSP ICS which is what we all crave, but it's only partially working. The TouchWiz (Samsung stock/themed) ICS leak is almost perfect. We just need a native kernel to fix auto-rotation and the little bugs.
The phone's specs are among the best in the world right now lol. YOU WILL LOVE THIS PHONE, I have no doubt about it.
Also, feel free to PM me about any other questions you may have that aren't being answered.

Root and ROMs are great. However we don't have any good ICS kernels because we're still waiting on samsung
ok guys been playing around with some roms and stuff, like some of you said rooting this device was a peace of cake,
loved the megamix ICS rom, the only problem was roration and the calling echo witch you already know.
some of the fixes that i seen for the echo issue dont seen to help mine though,
now i have a question, why do we need a blaze modem?
this phone suppost to be one of the 42mgp of tmobile, if i recall the amaze, the galaxy s2, and now the blaze.

not sure if this has been said, but only flash t989 and i727 skyrocket stuff.
the blaze's modem is just another modem.... rado for HTC that may or may not strengthen your phone's signal. It all depends on your phone and location. I got spotty service here in socal with but when I do have reception.. it is faster. Just too spotty.

I dont understand?
Do you mean the stock update in a zip format to flash on the phone? check the Samsung site?
Or do you mean roms supporting the new jb release.. if so check the development threads, plenty of the devs are working on updates for it, most likely not out yet
I was looking for the same thing.
In my case, stock rooted JB CWM flashable. I would like to move to JB without chancing the counter. I figured since I have CWM already I would like to flash JB without touching CWM. I haven't seen an ROMS based on the official JB release, or are there?
Bacon rom is stock debloated. Rogers based though. Just need to add att apn
I'm looking for the same thing. Been searching for hours and can't find just a stock rooted AT&T 4.1.1 cwm flashable zip. Does anyone know where one is? Can't believe it is this hard to find.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
I have been looking for one as well for days.
I just want a AT&T LK3 which has been rooted, Dodexed, zip aligned with SupeSU in there.
I want to modify it myself, so I want to start from the beginning.
Unfortunately people in here aren't on the ball like over in the Tmobile or Sprint forums. Over there the day their's got offically released, there was an Odin install and a CWM install also immediately. But here no one has released one yet.
Bummer is I don't know how to do it myself or I would. There are many experienced people on here whom I am sure could do it in like 10 minutes. I really wish someone would.
I can't stand people who complain about the devs here. The sense of entitlement makes me sick.

Ok I'm glad I make you sick...so lets move on.
My point was that the devs/whomever on here are well experienced on doing this sort of thing and can do something this simple in practically no time. As I said, the other forums had all that on day one.
I am not asking for a fully modded rom, I just want the basics so I can mod it myself.
I don't think I am acting entitled, I can't change my oil in my car or fix my dishwasher, so I call people who actually know how to do it. Same thing here.
I appreciate what everyone does here, but you KNOW that they have a CWM flash just sitting on their hard drives that they fixed up BEFORE they started doing any mods, so I am just asking anyone who already did what I was asking for to release that cause you know the devs already did it anyway. I would say PRETTY PLEASE if it would help.
I am not trying to be a pain or come off that way.
I can modify a rom myself, but I need a starting point to work with is all.
Here's some Pepto for your stomach.

Your mechanic and dishwasher repairman work for free? No? The devs here do. Not the same thing at all.
No one owes you anything. You want it that bad, learn how to do it yourself. I'm sure people will appreciate it.
Look what this guy did, I might try it

[Q] Anyone ever flashed a Verizon S3 ROM?

LiquidSmooth 4.2.2 ROM is available for both the ATT and Verizon S3's. I have the ATT and I regularly flash my Cousin and his wife's phones for them. But they're four hours away and I won't see them again for a couple months.
What I've done in the past with my ATT Skyrocket was to flash a TMobile Hercules ROM on it and customize it the way it needs to be, then just sent it to them to restore from CWM.
But, the Skyrocket & Hercules were essentially the same phone. So now that we all have the S3, and they are on Verizon now, I'm not sure how well I'll get away with this.
Basically I flash the ROM on my phone. Install all their apps. Set up all little tweaks & customizations. Then do a Nandroid for them to restore on their phone. Makes it a nice and TIGHT phone. They love it, and I get killer BBQ & Beer & Pool fun when I go visit every few months.
The Wife's phone has been having issues, so it's time for a new flash. And they're still on 4.1.1 ROM's.
I know the TMO & ATT S3's can share the same ROM. But I don't want to brick my ATT S3 with a Verizon S3 ROM flash, even if it's just for a couple hours while I set it up. Wondering if it's absolute trouble waiting to happen?
Its different. I had to root my friends vzw s3 and the whole process is different, and I'm sure the partitions are different.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
They are already rooted (TWRP). But that's a good point about the partitioning.
Definitely not going to do something unless someone else has already leapt from this bridge before me....
Nope. I wouldn't try it either.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Don't do it. You will brick their phones. The system files are very different. with different hardware as well. The antenna mainly. As well as a special dialer app and files to work on the out dated cdma network
Wayne Tech S-III
It might work, you wouldnt have signal.... I wouldnt try it though.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Bootloader is different. Kernel is different. The partitions may be even set up differently. Different radio bands, RILs and other items will cause it to brick.
Maybe it's the allergy meds I'm on, or maybe I just felt like testing the boundries.
Just flashed AOKP's Verizon 4.2.2 3/5/13 release on my D2ATT.
Phone still boots & works.
Well, data doesn't work (as you guys said it wouldn't). But WiFi does work.
Rebooted and installed gapps. Set up a bunch of settings. So far, so good. Though Play Store does crash. Can't get past that so far.
EDIT:
I just flashed the Verizon version of Slim Bean 4.2.2.
It had an option for me to not only add an APN, but also to select GSM. The AOKP did not.
After setting up these two things, data is working fine. Made a phone call too.
Playstore working also.

HELP

So im very irritated and very confused. i bought a GS4 and had for about a month and suddenly any tw roms i flashed would never work after the first boot , it would flash fine and boot up fine but as soon as i go to reboot it would hang at the galaxy s4 boot screen, aosp roms worked fine oddly enough, finally i sent it in and got a brand new replacement, ive had this one about a week now and the SAME EXACT THING is happening again. i have no idea why, im not doing anything out of the ordinary. im just confused and would like to know if i can fix it or if i need to get tmobile on the phone and get another replacement again. im at a loss honestly.

Have you tried a factory reset? Have you tried returning to stock and re-rooting? What root method are you using?
by any chance, are you rebooting with the usb plugged in? and can you boot into your recovery?

I dont mean to sound like a jerk but two devices and the same problem, I would say user error. Please explain the method and steps you have used to root both phones.

[Q] ROMs for Straight Talk SCH-S960L on Sprint Towers

Hello everyone,
First off, I want to apologize if this question has already been asked and answered. I've found a lot of conflicting information and I just wanted to get everything straight. I have the SCH-S960L Galaxy S3 that I purchased thru Straight Talk and this phone runs off of Sprint towers. Of course as everyone already knows, Straight Talk does not update the firmware on their branded phones and my phone is stuck running 4.1.2 - something I wish I would have known about before buying it for over $400. Anyway, I have read that the SCH-S960L is a variant of the SCH-L710 Sprint GS3. What I would like to know is if any custom ROMs on XDA will work on the SCH-S960L? If I can update my firmware to a solid ROM, I wouldn't mind keeping the phone for another year or so... but there are just too many things 4.1.2 won't allow me to do such as link certain bluetooth devices.
If anyone knows of any custom ROMs that would work, could you please reply and list their names and/or links to them? If you know of more than 1 custom ROM that will work, what one would you recommend? This is my daily phone, so everything has to work on it.
I really appreciate everyone's input. Thanks in advance.
There are several roms that work I have the exact same phone some roms I've tried are
-Cyanogen mod
-AICP
-OctOS (recommended)
I'm having trouble with the data right now I'm trying to find out how to fix it if I find out I'll let you know
