My friend has my old S3 that came from ATT and got it unlocked to t-mobile, and i was wondering if flashing a custom rom to it will mess anything up? I'm assuming I need to use rom's for t-mobile...any input or experiences greatly appreciated! Thanks

You can flash any tmobile custom rom since the AT&T phone is unlocked.
Flashing a good custom rom will make the phone run a lot smoother, better
battery life, many extra features and it definitely will look a lot nicer.
I highly suggest to go with the Wicked v10 custom rom.
There is nothing else like it for the S3 at the present time.
It's the most professional custom rom which is available
for our phones here on XDA
Good luck!

ok cool, thanks for the reply. i put custom roms on the phone when it was mine, but i didnt know if the carrier made a diff etc etc. i think i might hook him up with PA, i used it before on the s3 and currently using it on my nexus 4, but i'll check out wicked v10. he really wants 4.2.2 for some reason idk lol

I've tried a few custom ROMs but none of them worked out for me —either battery hogging kernel or AOSP look (way too many features missing) etc
So i was just curious if there's any ROM that's almost identical to stock, but different in that it has multi-view included (doesn't come with stock i317M rom). I heard that the AT&T Note 2 stock ROM has multi-view, but thought that might not properly work out seeing that I'm with Bell.
Would appreciate any suggestions.

Have you tried CleanROM? I believe that falls in line with exactly what you're looking for. I love the stock rom too. So much that I have a permanent nandroid of it. I was thinking about trying CleanROM for the exact same reasons.

I currently have CleanRom 3.5 installed and love it. You get to make a ton of choices as to whats installed when installing it. Mostly it seems a stock rom with a lot of the bloat removed
Got a Note 8 (I467) for xmas, and while it's nice to play with, I really want a custom rom for it.
Does anyone one if cyanogenmod or any other custom option is available.
many thanks.

If you have AT&T variant then we have nothing, not even 4.2.2 or an unlocked bootloader. It's frustrating, but it is what it is. If you are looking for custom ROMs, look at a wifi only version or a different device.

As far as I can tell, we don't have any custom roms for the AT&T i467. The best we can do is root and a deodexed stock rom.
Root:

Deodexed Stock Rom:

Read everything carefully and don't apply the OTA CAMF2 update if you want to flash the deodexed stock rom.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
I think I'm going to start looking at this. ?
I just got a SCH I515 for my mother and it's currently running Cyanogenmod 10.2. This is going to be her first smartphone, but she's familiar with the stock ROM on my Note 2. So, I was looking for a stock rooted 4.2.2 ROM. I've tried searching for a stock rooted ROM without any luck. I really don't need a rooted ROM for her, but I'd really like to run Rom Toolbox and Titanium Backup.
So, does anyone have a link to a stock rooted ROM? If there's one that has all the bloatware removed like the Sophisticated ROM I ran on my Note 2 that'd be ideal.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I have no experience with the i515.
As far as I know there are no TouchWiz ROMs for the i535 at version 4.2.2 because it never official got the update (straight from 4.1.2 to 4.3.0). Are you looking specifically for TouchWiz ROMs or are AOSP acceptable too?

I'd prefer a TouchWiz ROM as my mom is somewhat familiar with that. I'm really just looking for a debloated stock ROM.

I know many people on Google+ that swear by this ROM. It's called Shiny ROM. Here's a link to the page on Rootzwiki: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36706-romaosp3914-shiny-rom-ota-like-stock-android-442-kvt49l/
Read all about it over there. Hope to have helped a bit.

That looks like a good ROM. Is there a way I can use the Samsung TouchWiz keyboard on an AOSP ROM? I personally hated the kb in every AOSP ROM I tried on my Note 2.
Hey guys I am new on this site and found that this it the best site for all you can find on cell phone. I bought a galaxy sgh-i467m from telus and have found that the screen freezes like alot of you guys have that problem also.

Nope, no ROMs for the i467 or the 467m. The AT&T doesn't even have an unlocked bootloader. Not enough of these devices were sold and so there wasn't a lot of demand. I have the i467 and I'm just about to give it up after waiting so long on a JB update that was promised but not delivered. If I were you, I would move on or learn how to develop.
I almost wonder if a 5120 rom could be flashed on the i467m tablet. I've been tempted quite a few time to try but have not given in to temptation.
Can anyone recommend a solid rom for this Note II that is solid stable with good performance?
I am an experienced romer but have just acquired this for a daughter and need to fully root, rom and restore. I know FreedomPop does not support this sprint phone yet but they say the will shortly.
Any guidance appreciated.
Any help appreciated.
I realize that I am on a stock 4.4.2 NE2 build of the Sprint Note 2. So it seems that I need to towelroot and the use a recovery. What recovery is best Philz based on CWM or is there a TWRP?
I am used to safestrap on the Verizon variant.
What good ROMs are compatible with NE2?
Okay sorry for being a noob.
Did more reading and thank fully Sprint did not lock the bootloader like Verizon!!! That is great.
Okay so looks like most roms will work.
Anyone willing to say what they like the best or something solid?
Thank you in advance.
