[Q]How to flash other S3 ROMs to the Tmobile S3

Hello, I was curious if you can flash ROMs from the S3's from other carriers besides T-Mobile and also flash ROMs from the international forums. I remeber back when i had my Vibrant all you would have to do is flash the correct boot.img and also replace the keylayout file. Is it as simple as flashing a tmobile boot.img since the keys are all the same? Thank you in advance.

don't do it.

There is a possibility of sharing ROMs with the AT&T model. If you go check out their forum, there are a couple of ROMs which people have successfully flashed on the T-Mobile model. Search the threads and flash at your own risk!

That is totally true. On the Hercules you could flash the skyrocket roms. But the T-Mobile ones are usually better. The att ones are really only better when att leaks first.
Don't do it was an oversimplification, however.
Just heard about too many people flashing the international roms.

Nope, the hardware internally is too different. I doubt there'll be an easy method to port the ROMs either.
The AT&T ROMs on the other hand should be fairly easy to port and I think there is a group working towards this goal.

You will lose your insurance.
Just to let you know, you will lose your phone's insurance, this is not the same as the 90 day warranty. I remember I had flashed my vibrant to a rom using the international model, about six months later I got a letter in the mail saying assurion would no longer insure my phone, because it wasn't the right model. I might have been able to add the text file that adds the correct model number, but I don't know if that really works or how to I it.

In this case they could have seen the flashing being done and the changing of the build.prop file. That would make the most sense to me.

You obviously haven't been reading...heck go for it.
You CAN NOT do other roms, as was stated, the hardware is different.

Not that hard to search. Do it and report back with results.

AT&T ROMs and even Sprint ROMs work just fine if you configure APN settings.

Risky is an i9300 rom because the SoC is 100% different. We all have the same SoC so it's not as big of a deal.

Hey,
How do you configure the apn settings? I'm on an att rom and love it, on wifi it is fine but when it says 4g away from wifi no luck with service. I can get edge, but that is it.
thanks,

Ok I figured it out but I cant get the att apn to stick does the phone have to be unlocked?

New GS3 user :)

Hey all, I have a question about my new phone. It seems that after rooting and thorwing in the Blazer ROM my screen rotation is now INVERTED.So when I landscape to the right, what should landscape right side up, is now upside down and the same goes for landscaping to the left. Any idea what the cause might be?
I have tried a different ROM and the same thing is happening, it also never happened on the stock OS...which I seem to be having a VERY VERY hard time flashing. I have the current stock OS right now but ODIN won't seem to pass it. Any thoughts guys? I got many many games I want to play in landscape and I just can't. Any help would be greatly thanked.

Try clark44 freeGs3 rom. Best rom I've used yet
Apple just give up the IPHONE sucks deal with it.

This is your problem. AT&T and Tmobile both have different kernels than the CDMA (Sprint) model. You'll have to flash an AT&T kernel to fix the rotation issue. If you're having other issues, then I suggest you flash a full AT&T ROM.
Here's the AT&T section.

I try a new stock ROM tomorrow, finally got Blazer back and installed and the up-side down landscape is still happening. I tried the re-cal the gyro but to no avail.
I did find a thread on sprint forums though, so a few people having this problem with their phones ONLY after having rooted it. And in even fewer cases, upon getting a brand new phone...the same thing still happened. So I will find a new stock ROM try it and show it to the guys at my local store and see what we can get going. If anyone else has any suggestions please let me know! Thanks so much.

Anything's possible, but the U.S. variants have the same chip set (exact, to be honest.) so the drivers are still compatible with each phone. This doesn't mean you should go flash kernels like mad from other carriers, but it's been proven that T-Mobile kernels work on Sprint, it just causes landscape mode to be reversed and vice versa from GSM to CDMA.

International I9505 Rom working on T-Mobile S4 M919!!

So I went ahead and flashed the i9505 Wanam Rom from here and it works great on my M919. The rom doesn't have a modem so I figured it would be safe and sure enough it was. Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283194
No wipe is required either. I simply flashed it using CWM and I now have a GT-I9505 model with all T-Mo bloatware gone! I really like the blue dialer on this too!
You will get reboot notifications, to remove that simply download "Bloatware Freezer" from Playstore and freeze the app called SEAndroid. That should take care of it.

Oh man... Fully functional though? I'd imagine Wifi Calling would be a goner, not that I ever use it anyway...

No Tmo features...obviously.
Yes, a lot of people don't realize their options for goodies go beyond just the specific m919 forum. Check out the general international S4 I9505 forums. It's were I spend most my time.
Development is lagging for the m919 variant. There are only a few ROMs & choices, with slow updates.... and plenty of time has passed since release, so I'm not sure how much better it will get. It's the one negative part about Sammy devices....fragmentation of the same model. It would be nice to see a majority of elite Devs working on the same model....like the One.
MANY of the mods/themes/ROMs etc...work great with our device. The radio is the only difference between various 9505 models.
Cheers!

Awesome. But who puts a modem in custom roms now days? Lol Now that I can see that this phone is actually the same hardware as the international we can have roms from there too..... In this case if a leak of a newer android update comes out we can have it port over. And not wait for tmobile,,,
If that the case than AT&T, VERIZON, AND SPRINT can be ported all like on the s3 but the fun part is the even international too

I hope this all works so far I'm very happy with wicked but more options are never a bad thing
Sent from my SGH-M919

Wow I had no idea I could use i9505 roms. I thought i may be able to but wasn't sure. Awesome.

Working great so far. Only problem I noticed so far was constant notification from SEAndroid. I simply freezed it using bloatware freezer from Playstore.

lol give us more time, mate. would you rather we release untested ROMs? i'm sure there are a number of us floating around here that have a ROM we can put out right this second but it is good practice to test first and ensure there are no issues. this can take a little bit. i myself am in testing phase. maybe the phone has been out a while, but i personally have only had one for 2 and a half weeks. a lot of stuff in the other sections will be ported over. i have to get a good working and stable base out first before i start adding in more tweaks that will seemingly overwhelm most typical users.
also, please be weary of flashing an entire ROM from i9505 section. if there are CSC bits contained within it, you won't have a signal like you're supposed to.

Totally agree with the previous poster. These things take time to make.
With that said this is good news. Hopefully, we can get a dev to port these over with TMO features & Csc files.
I know AT&T GN2 had an awesome dev that ported Int GN2 over with options for TMO, AT&T & Canadian carriers.

Any ROM made for I9505, you can use. Make sure the ROM doesn't have a modem baked into it (ROMs usually don't, but you must make sure). You will then have to download and app called "Bloatware Freezer" from Play Store and freeze the system app called 'SEAndroid'

thank for the tip mate
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium

Works great, even support video call like you see in the Korean dramas. Too bad no US provider supports that

Any way if we manually added or flashed the T-Mobile bloat we could use visual voicemail at least?
Also do you feel that the battery life and overall performance is better in these ROMs?
Can we still use 4g/ 4g lte with these ROMs automatically or do we need to mess with the APN to a certain extent?
Thank you. I am considering flashing because I'm loving those ROMs and themes in the international forums especially that dark android theme that doesn't work well with our phones

4.1.2 update

Does it not piss anyone else off that the Samsung galaxy s3 for AT&T still hasn't gotten 4.1.2 or even any news on it. The galaxy s2 even got the update for AT&T, so how is it not yet out for the s3.

It's very annoying indeed. However, there's plenty of custom touchwiz roms with 4.1.2 features and they're debloated.

They don't read these forums. If you're unhappy, you need to let THEM know. I did - and if enough paying customers threatened to go elsewhere, they'd pay more attention.

Because they probably only have one software team, and only work on one Samsung device (or just one device - period) at a time.

How to get the Samsung 4.1.2 update:
1. Root your phone with chainfire's CF autoroot method.
2. Install chainfire's app Mobile Odin from the play store.

If you want it, you can get it from the previous build If I get time, I'll add it back in manually, but frankly, I like not having it there, it seems to boot a little faster

Actually, it'll work just fine. It'll just have Boost signature and mmsc url. Just like Boost and VM users have to change mmsc url, you would have to as well, I think. I say that, because if you check mmsc urlv on this rom, it actually reads "not set." I would be interested to see if mms would send and receive on other carriers with it saying "not set."

I'm not sure I understand your question. If you're referring to your modem, then no, it doesn't have to be MD7. This is a Boost build, so you may have to change your mmsc url to get mms

Hmmm, that's the first I've heard of that. This rom is completely stock, but yes, not debloated. I just installed es file explorer and deleted all the crap it comes with. And for the other poster, this will not wipe everything if you do a dirty flash. And I'm using it as my dd with zero issues.

You got it, thanks. Working great, flashed 3 already.

Glad to hear it. I have the MG2 tar as well. Anyone interested in a deodex/debloat of that? And silver, how's the build working for you?

Over 300 downloads, thanks everyone! I haven't heard any feedback, so I'm assuming it is working ok. Let me know!

I'm wondering is this ROM a daily driver or are there any kinks that anyone can report on.
