sorry, NOOB here.
Been doing some research here. I want to flash stock i9505 rom to my m919. From my understanding, I just need to flash the rom without the modem? If so, where can I get the file? all the stock i9505 rom files contain the modem. maybe there is a way to get rid of the modem from the file?

The CWM flashable are ok to use, just flash a T-Mobile kernel from T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4-> Android Original Development and you'll be fine. Just don't mess with the i9505's Odin stock .tar.md5's (or ANYTHING from the i9500 section); those are the ones that will contain all the good stuff to screw up our precious little phones.
Also, you must not have done much research as this subject has been covered many numerous times; not trying to be rude, just pointing it out.

actually been reading for a few days..., my conclusion was find a i9505 stock rom w/o modem but I couldn't find any.
I know about the tmobile kernel, I have that. I just couldn't find a stock i9505 rom that will work

None of the CWM flashable stock ROMs there have modems. There are modified/stock, debloated stock, and I think if you dig deep enough, there is just plain ole rooted stock; all w/o modem.
Get the omega rom and flash and flash a kernal from the tmobile so wifi can work *faux123 that im using and it for i9505 but on m919

Sup XDA,
I know there are involved ways of getting GT-N7100 roms on the T-mobile SGNII but are you able to flash straight across? I googled a bit and searched xda a bit and found some radio discussion but that's about it as I am at work at the moment. I did find a few details about flashing all but the radio and kernel for Sprint roms but that was it.
Any info? Found this site with tons of GT-N7100 roms on it: http://www.grantbarker.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2.html#galaxy-note-2-roms
Thanks

yes (but dont use a straight 7105 stock rom unless it was designed to work with t-mo's). Teshxx has been releasing stock 7105 roms to work with t-mo's note II's. Here's the lateste one

Hi, I am totally a newbie for this. I have got Galaxy S4, which is GT-I9505 but then I would like to have T-mobile ROM running on it. How far is it possible??? If so can you please guide me through each steps. Also please give me the dis advantages of having Tmobile ROM on GT-I9505. Thanks in Advance.
The rom which you want to flash, that version should match your mobile version. If you want to flash tmobile version of rom, you may hard brick your device.
Hit thanks if you think i sabed your device

type your mobile name and the carrier on which you are. and the name of the rom you want!
if you want some other unofficial roms, then make sure they are supported by your carrier device. ask the developer of that rom about this. plz click thanks insted of saying!
:laugh::good:
Basically take whatever ROM you want from the i9505 and flash it via CWM or any custom recovery, but NOT via Odin; this is due that Odin flashables usually include the i9505 modem... It won't brick your device, but you will be left without a signal.
Btw, make sure you flash a Samsung based T Mobile kernel (original, faux etc) AFTER flashing the ROM you want. Otherwise you could have a potential soft brick in your hands .
To wrap it up, it's :
1- Flash rom of choice via custom recover, not Odin
2- Flash T Mobile, Samsung based kernel via custom recovery.
3- Enjoy!

You can safely flash any of the Tmobile S4 Touchwiz Jellybean 4.2.2 cwm/twrp flashable custom roms.
The Wicked and the Darthstalker roms both work fine on the i9505 Galaxy S4 phone.
You can find both of these excellent custom roms in the "T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development" threads.
Both of these roms are based on the latest M919UVUAMDL firmware.
If you want more information and details about these roms you can find it in their threads here in xda.
Always do a full wipe including Factory Reset, Wipe System, Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache before flashing.
Be sure to make a nandroid backup before flashing any roms.
Good luck!

Im new to this part of XDA, I just recently purchased a Galaxy S3 T999L.
Purchasing this phone, I had no idea there was a non LTE Model which leads me in a bit of confusion when looking for a custom Rom
Im no rookie when it comes to flashing. If you look Below in my sig you can see the devices I currently have and have flashed different roms many times in the past. My question is what ROMs will work with my T999L? Ive looked and to my confusion have seen more for the T999 than anything since its been around much longer.. I've been looking and the forum here is a bit fragmented and its hard to see which ROM will go to which device. Please forgive me for my ignorance, Im just trying to play catch up, and perhaps contribute in the future in some way.
Edit: Im more familiar with flashing Tablets than phones, I dont have much experience with flashing radios and other phone related stuff...Is there a Difference with T999 and T999L other than the Radio?
edit 2: No comments? I guess either i said the wrong thing, or I posted in the wrong forum..
Thank you in advance
The t-999 ROMs will work with your t-999l, except the 4.3 touchwiz ROMs for the moment. 4.3 aosp/cm/aokp is fine.. There's really not much difference between the two, except the t-999l was updated to support lte.. Do not flash a t-999 modem to your t-999l, it won't brick but it won't pick up service at all. I suggest looking at the t-999l and t-999n q&a thread for further info

I did just that.... And u didn't have to be rude about it..
Thanks for your input
Don't mean to hi-jack this thread but it kind of pertains the the question. I have the T999L as well. I've read Doc's informational thread about the T999L and T999N.
In terms of this part:
"ONLY flash T999L firmware to a T999L and T999N firmware to a T999N!!!!
If it does not match your model EXACTLY, it will almost certainly brick your device!!!"
I keep reading I can safely flash T999 roms, kernels, etc. But it's the firmware process that confuses me. Should I only stick to 4.1.2 roms (can I even flash Jamison's 4.1.1 rom for example), or can I flash a 4.3 TW rom in the future, assuming the leaked builds get LTE support when the official update comes out?
Thanks in advance.

If that's true then how come the T999L wasn't updated to 4.3 alongside the T999? The 4.1.2 software wasn't even the same. No multi-window, no Note 2 photo gallery, still rockin the old "My Files" app on the T999L 4.1.2 software.....At first I thought it was just the "LTE Radio" difference but I guess there's more to it seeing the differences in software.

Firmware refers to the files used in Odin, so for those, make sure you use the ones for your device only. You can flash any ROM, even 4.1.1 I believe.. And yes once there's a leaked 4.3 firmware for the t999l you should be able to just flash the modem and then flash a 4.3 tw ROM, based on what we experienced with the t999

Thanks a lot for this. Been bugging me for a while now. I'll probably take the plunge soon and use "The Recovery Way." Rooted my first S3 using motochopper back in June or July when I first got it, but problems arose and exchanged it at Costco (just got it and WiFi wouldn't connect after a factory reset). Been scared since lol. Also scared me that I wouldn't receive official updates anymore as it said it was modified, but that doesn't bug me anymore reading all the complaints about the whole no turning back.
Thanks again!
I'm looking into flashing a custom ROM onto my T999L for the first time as well...have any of you guys taken the plunge yet, and have any feedback on specific ROMS? I think I will try with AOKP
This is a tool from international gn2 section. It is intended tobe compatible with any 4.3 tw custom rom, installing all gn3 apps. If one of the very talented devs here could port this to our device, I'm sure it would be appreciated by many here.

Why don't you just use one of the roms that has the Note 3 features inside it already? All you have to do is flash t-mobiles modem on top of the rom install and it'll be just like stock + the n3 features.

Sorry if this is a stupid question: when flashing a modem after custom rom install, does the modem have to be in a .zip format? If so, where can I find a Tmo note 2 modem in .zip format?

Yes it does, but it has to be a signed .zip file. You can just download the latest one that's already been signed here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760975430
So, since the T-Mobile and metro merge I've noticed many t mobile threads and almost none for metro. Figured its safe to post here about my metro gsm s3
Im looking for STOCK 4.1 or 4.2 based roms, preferring pure stock or stock de-odex roms. Maybe even like official Sammy update files.
Anyone know where I can grab them?
Thanks in advance.

All T999 Stockmod or custom Roms will work fine with T999N. Just don't try any modems or Stock Firmwares. See this thread for modems specific to your phone.
