AT&T rom on T-Mobile S3? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

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. =)

I am running everything stock from TMobile, and the latest OTA update. I haven't tweaked anything yet. What is a good starting point to fixing this? Thanks again.

Questions about Samsung galaxy s3 jellybean update for wind mobile.

Hey.
I got my Galaxy S3 with wind. I wanted to know when the official jellybean update is coming out?
And also if not how can I custom mod it to get jellybean for the Wind mobile version. Also what kind of mod from which service provider is the sane as that of Wind Mobile?

Do a Google search for wind mobile sgs3 cm10.
Here's what I found so far

You can flash any T-Mobile US roms but NOT modems.
Nobody knows when JB is coming out for anyone.
If that's true and I believe it is. Flash the cm10 or euroskank nightlies.
A lot of people like aokp, as well.
We are all still waiting for official jellybean. I think September was mentioned. Not sure if Canada gets it sooner than America or not. Europe usually goes first if I recall.
Remember you have to root your phone first. Read the stickies in the dev section

I'm starting to get the OTA update from Wind, but I think because my phone is rooted it keeps failing to install.
Anyone else having the same problem?

[Q] (Answered) Why do I have an I747M on AT&T?

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.

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...

[Q] Questions about Telus 4G Samsung Galaxy S II™ X..

Hi all,
I'm going to buy a Telus 4G Samsung Galaxy S II™ X, However, I have some question:
1. Can I unlock the bootloader and install any ROM?
2. What is the latest official firmware? Is Samsung going to issue a JB?
3. How is the battery life?
4. Any advice
Thank you in advance
1. Yes
2. Telus has released 4.0.3 I believe. JB is supposed to be official for this phone.
3. It's ok, maybe gets through the work day, depending on usage.
4. If you do flash a ROM make sure it's for the t989 and not the international s2.
Enjoy.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989
Thank you very much.
Only thing I have to add is that the Koodo ROM floating around here doesn't work well with Telus as it has the Koodo AP baked into it by default. I'm loving CM 10.0.0 on this phone.

I'm on Telus and the Koodo ROM is amazing. You just have to manually add the APN (settings are listed in the thread).
CM10 is great too but TW ROMs have better call quality and battery life in my experience.
With Koodo V5 I typically do 2-2.5 hours of screen time, 1 hour of voice calling daily and I'm still over 20% when I plug it in at night.
the official android release is 4.0.4 now thats what I had when I purchased my SGH-T989D from Koodo. Telus and Koodo are practically the same I think?
Hey guys.
I'm also planning on buying the T989D. Could someone confirm that on the T989D we can flash any roms for T989 (t-mobile) ?
Can't wait to join the T989 community.
Thanks a lot.

I've never personally tried to flash any roms that weren't made for the t989.....not sure why someone would want to...since there are tonnes of roms made for our device.
If you're new to the phone....I'd stick with t989 roms for now.
The telslu radio is the t989dtlle4.
Yeah I'll stick to T989 roms to be on the safe side. It's gonna take time to try them all out anyway

[Q] Problem with Custom Rom

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?

The People's Rom GS3.0

Help please! Noob here, can anyone tell me if flashing The People's Rom, for the Sprint GS3, on the SGH-I747, AT&T GS3, works 100%? Will the phone and mobile data work more specifically? If not are there any tips or tweaks to get them working? Thanks in advance for any help.

If you'd like a very expensive paperweight..... Please use the search feature.
GS3 is carrier specific. You may be able to get away with flashing a tmo ROM and changing APNs but a sprint or Verizon ROM would almost definitely kill your device.

Thanks for the reply. I've looked around for a version ported to the sgh-i747 with no luck. I found some noob guides for porting so... I guess I'll get started
Sent from my Jedi Invasion SGH-I747
Its possible but like he said tmo and at&t are similar but sprint and Verizon can be more tricky.... Just make sure you back up everything you properly. Ask the dev who made it some questions and most will help if you are just doing it for personal use and not for others.
