Do not flash the new ICS Leak!

Do NOT flash new ICS Leak, you will brick. We have had one hard-brick/hardware issue (don't know which one). I repeat do not flash. I myself encountered 8 soft bricks.

Anyone with a confirmed working flash out there?

I don't see why not. We have basically the same hardware. But you should probably wait for confirmation from someone else preferably over in the sr section.

yup do not flash a few bricks already, even wiped formatted all partitions and removed sd and sim. this will not flash to our phone without fuqing up

as a rogers person myself id also love to know if the cwm zip would work as almost all other att roms function on the i727r

will this be ready by tonight. so i can stay up and wait lol. sorry for asking

everyone should wait until a dev work on a stable and workable release with instructions before jumping the gun. I don't want to see a bunch of "tried to flash ics, now bricked" threads lol

Wait not all sr roms work with your phone? Why not? Every rom should. But if there is a difference between your phones, i suggest holding out. I am not sure if your phone shares the same compatibility like how ours and telus are the same. But anyways, you guys should definitely wait before jumping the gun.

Yeah I know The T989, T989D, I727 and I727R can all flash each others roms/kernels/radios through CWM... ODIN is a different story tho. I used to own a T989D

Ooh really lol i swear i read someone odining a stock tmobile rom on their Telus, and was like wtf is all this bloat lol. Oh wells btw. It sounds like once they get a cwm flashable zip It should be universal. So it would be a couple hours. Pretty sure these devs don't run on t3 lines at home lol

You sound suprised

port sprint jellybean offical update ?

tmobile offical update for jellybean wont be until the end of 2012, so cant we just port the official jelly bean update from sprint? cause basically the sprint gs3 and all other carriers are the same internally except for the radio. so as long as we just flash the rom without the radio, we should be good ? i have no idea. idk. just a thought

I'm sure someone will try it out soon, but I'm pretty sure you can flash Sprint and att roms no problem

I've read only att roms are safe to flash for t mobile s3
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I believe all the carriers have pretty much identical hw except the radios. They most likely have the same partition mapping and so its probably ok to flash anothers roms.
That said, I would NOT do this without solid confirmation. Its basically an educated guess on my part. (A day or two ago someone said they flashed a Verizon rom and it worked, but again, I wouldn't take my or their word for it alone)

Ktoonsez built his touchwiz kernel off the sprint jb source so I'm with doc on this. It's most likely safe. I'm hoping T-Mobile will release their source soon.

Someone in general clashed Sprint and Verizon ROMs just fine. The only issue was getting radios to communicate with the software. I believe they got everything working on the Sprint ROM but Verizon had extra authentication methods.

There are unconfirmed reports that we'll get Jelly bean by the end of november which is really only 4 weeks from now.

Or we can be impatient and want it now.

graffixnyc released a modded version already. I'm working on a straight stock port of it but haven't had much time with it so far. (It boots and runs but I need to do more to it) I should get some time I can spend on it later today, I hope!

The OP could be telling the truth, but till a credible member verify this, I'll question the validity of his/her post. Still, even if it turns out to be true, It remains to be a question whether a sprint rom is flashable on ours or not.

You can flash a sprint rom just fine. will stuff not work without modification? yes, but you will not brick it.
Now, if you flash an international rom to a US variant you will brick because the partitions are different. But everything is the same on the US variants. You do have to change things in the build.prop and make other mods to make it work on GSM. The only thing bad would be if the sprint rom flashes a modem but that wouldn't even brick because you could just flash the correct modem

I also want to mention I released a straight stock port on the ATT forums. This release will work for tmo as well. You just have to change the build prob stuff to show it as a t999 instead of a i747

All the S3 from US carrier have the same hardware. It could be ported just that the radios will have to be changed. I wont doubt it if they do it :good:

OK guys no more talking, that's the official JB for the sprint version, ported for the T-Mobile
Check out. Working great on my phone.

Sup everyone

I'm new to the gs3 just moved on from the HTC sensation. I have a question. Can we use the same roms from the international gs3 on this one? Sorry if this has been asked just couldn't find it

Only flash ROMs made for the specific carrier. If you flash an international ROM onto a T-Mobile galaxy s3, your phone will be hard bricked and the only way to unbrick it is to get it JTAG'd, which can cost around 60$.

U can't flash any of the international version roms, but the stateside variants are flashable..
sent from GS3 disguised as a GNote2

most ATT roms should be directly compatible with little effort for our tmo GS3. However, do not flash an ATT modems, that will brick your phone for sure.
I also recommend you use TWRP, seems to be less issues with it. good luck and welcome

I suggest you stick to flashing only what you find in this forum. At least until you have had time to get used to your new device. You will run into quite a few conflicting reports on what does or doesn't work well with this phone. Give it time and you will figure out for yourself which are right and which are wrong.
We have plenty of roms and a number of ports from the other carriers so it really shouldn't be necessary to go flashing anything from somewhere else.
Use the other forums for reference, ideas, and learning more about your phone. If you find a mod or app you want to try, just ask if your not confident about it.
Good luck and welcome!
Oh, just fyi, the reports about the i9300 and i9305, are correct! Do NOT flash any roms or mods built for those! Guaranteed Brick!!

[Q] Sprint rom on AT&T

Hello
I wonder if i can flash sprint rom on at&t note 2
Thanks for all the answer

only if you want to mess up your phone...

Yea be carefull flashing Roms thats is not for your device model. If I were to flash another Rom ft a different carrier I would stay with Tmobile, Att, and gt n7105. Alot of times modems aint included in the rom or you will have an option in Aroma to Retain Modem. Another thing is you might lose LTE flashing Sprint or Verizon Roms because there CDMA and yours is GSM. I would just stick to your own device forums. Or atleast stay on the GSM/LTE Side (7105-i317-t889)

Unlock

Hey all I was wondering if anybody has found a unlock method that works? Att wont budge on a unlock code. Ive tried the service menu method. But I am a bit leary as to threads ive read as to devices becoming unusable after this method. And also options 4 and 5 in the network unlock category dont show up. I have also read that you can flash a rom that has an older firmware. Im running 4.1.2
Thnks fir any feedback..

Ok your just flashing the MODEM. Then after you perform the unlock. Then put a different SIM in, if it don't ask for a unlock code you're unlocked! Permanently!!:thumbup: Then You can flash back to the newest modem..
Found in the one stop thread, it's the MC3 modem...
Make sure first thing you do is make a back of of your existing Rom system set up. It's always good to have good back up of your system! FYI
