What are the best mods and kernels to use with jellybean rom
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Thus far my favorite mod is my theme . And my favorite kernel is the samurai kernel. Although I have not ran it in a while. Waiting on The developer to finish his app and fix up his kernel a tad.

Heh doesn't sound like an easy fix. The signal anyways. Extracting the PRL is simple. And you need to use your PC not your phone. Though you can do it on your phone as well..
The PRL is the latest as well as the radios. But you could try flashing them again. I think sprints FD02 radios are messed up. I flashed the ones in our development section.
I also only get -100 and -93 which is between 1-2 bars in my house. But just about everywhere else i have 2-4 bars.

Well do you have another sprint phone to compare. It could just be that your area has sucky coverage. No radio or PRL will help you with that. The only thing I can think of is flashing a Verizon PRL. However that will be iffy because if roam too much sprint will cut you.

There are many options for the at&t branded s3's. Just check out the Android development and original android development forums. Roms range from touchwiz based to more custom source code based. Know what you're doing before you flash and make sure to only flash a rom for your device (not i9300, etc)

Shouldn't have too many issues as you would just need have the straight talk APN to use.
Really take your pick and look around and see what you like
Thanks for the input. I'm familiar with flashing roms. I've been using a rooted inspire 4g for 4 years now. The touch wiz. Is all new to me though because I love sense Roms.
The reason I asked about two roms is because I saw a mod in the forums with an aroma installer that would make quick work of themeing my gf's phone all pink.
She gets a kick out of me rendering my phone useless after a vigourus bout of themeing but I don't think she would find it that funny if it was her phone out of cammition while I restored a back up

Hi , I'm currently using Lg g2x
and it seems like this phone is a good option for me right now.
i have a few question for the phone.
1. How are the driver and development support for this phone? ( both from samsung and devs)
my g2x is a pain right now because LG did not release enough drivers and we have no fully working ICS/JB and developments are dying....
2. Are there screen burn in problems?? (This was the major reason why I tried to avoid AMOLED phones)
3. what is your general opinion?
Thank you
This phone and the dev support kicks ass. I had no qualms about keeping this through the S3 cycle, and every time I think I want to upgrade, I'm reminded that this phone does everything I want it to do.

I'm in Canada as well(however with Wind Mobile) and so far the stock koodo or Telus radio suits the best(most reliable, no data drops, etc). You may try different radios from the thread below to see if any of those works better for you with your provider. The stock koodo is there too if you wanna go back to that.
Radios in general affect the mobile signal, data connection and wifi signal. On a side note, the Telus Jellybean release is just around the corner for our device (April), we will see how is the bundled radio performs once it drops.

Flashing a custom rom(unless stated otherwise by the rom developer) won't touch your radio. So in theory your signal and other radio characteristics will remain the same. However based on the feedback in the radio thread some radio performs better for some user depending on their location(most of them are US based Tmobile customer). So it's about trial and error, try them and see if you have better results with different ones (signal, ping, download/upload, voice quality, battery life).
For Wind mobile here in my location (Ottawa) the koodo radio is the champ.

So, I decided to buy this phone to replace my crappy Motorola Xprt. Mainly because my xprt literally has 0 dev support, and is too small for my hands. Didn't need anything too fancy, so I bought the EVO 4G for 49 bucks.
Few questions I have though:
1. What is the best (iyo) ICS/JB rom for this device?
2. Is there paranoid android for this device? And if so, is it stable?
3. (Weird and oddly specific question) I had an unstable version of cm9 on my xprt, but I had a problem with viewing videos on instagram and vine.. actually they wouldn't play at all. Can anyone on a jb/ics rom confirm if they're able to video videos on one of those apps?
4. Videos in general, do they work alright?
Thanks!

Unfortunately, outside of Evervolv's 4.2.2 & 4.3 ROMs, Jellybean development on XDA for our phones has hit a lull. However, there are still a few newer (and very good) ROMs on the website below. As regards Paranoid Android, we don't have a pure, current version. The site below does have PacMan, Illusion and other variants that incorporate most, if not all of PA's features... Including Halo.

For the most part, any of Wambo's JB ROMs for the EVO will run incredibly well. In my opinion, after flashing all of them I would recommend CM10.1 as being the most smooth and stable.

I'm an absolute scrub when it comes to Android discussions (I only just rooted my phone last night ), but out of the few ROMs I've tried, I think Kendall's JellyBread is the best. It's very sleek, very clean and runs amazingly well. You can check out her thread here if you're interested:

Good luck in your endeavors. For $47 you have an excellent phone on your hands.
What about Reloaded .500? I have been on that for awhile...I might change but then it seems like every ROM has something that doesnt work be it FFC, video, 4g etc...If you read closely PACman rom has no working USB Tether/Camcorder/FFC/4G
Eh the things that don't work don't really bother me. I don't have 4g on the phone I have now, nor do I plan to pay for it. Don't have a ffc either and it really isn't important. I can use videocam illusion for recording video and usb tether is useless to me anyway.

.....luck is irrelevant.....
Not a single developer on this site. ..that I've been able to find. ..is advising users to flash roms not intended for their respective device. ..
Do you suppose that is luck as well ??
I submit that you have not pushed your device far enough (yet) with incompatible software to do any permanent damage. ..
But if you believe luck will carry you through then by all means. ..proceed. ..
I choose the years of experience our development team has provided. ..
And the code they rely on. ..
If Verizon devices and ATT devices were the same. ..or compatible. ..then our section would include them together. ..
I congratulate you for your bravery...but would advise those users reading this to think twice before attempting the installation of Verizon software on the ATT device. ..as you may not be so lucky. ...
I encourage the advancement of our devices. ..but I ultimately fail to find any possible benefit in what you are doing that outweighs the risks associated with your endeavors. ..
Please enlighten me...
In the meantime. ..I'll continue the use of approved software. ..as I'm not willing to waste $799.00 trying to beat proven science. ....
Best of luck to you. ..g

As long as you make sure you flash an att modem and kernel you will have no issues, actually the kernel would even work just dont ever flash the wrong modem or you will have a hard brick. Ive done this several times myself and have never had an issue. It was the same when I had my s3, you could flash any verizon or sprint rom as long as you flashed proper modem and kernel before rebooting. I used to love jelly beans on my s3, was the best rom I tried so I will be flashing this as soon as download is done :good:

It's true though, I've flashed many other Roms from different carriers..Not many people are even aware from those methods that it does work. Am not saying all of them,but the ones I have tried were successful.
Be careful posting such advice out in the wild ...as first time flashers may get confused as too which rom, radio, and kernel combinations are safe and which are not..
Thus we rely on our developers to package files specific to our devices ...and the safest methods to incorporate them...
I suggest that if your plan is to mix and match software's on this or any device ...it would be prudent to handle those conversations in the form of private massages ...until a proven method is posted ...
I've seen 5 device bricks this week ...and in 3 of those cases the user was confused as to whether or not the correct software and methods were used...
Threads holding names like "use Verizon software on ATT"...only serve to add confusion in the minds of our user base...
Bricks don't just happen ....they are created when users make mistakes by either not following directions ...or using incompatible software ...or a combination of the two ...(add confusion here )...
As stated above ....only some combinations will work ...not all...even when using the posted Verizon software....so if you truly want to protect your reputation and avoid sending folks down to brickville....then post which software combinations are safe only after confirmation from a defined and listed user base ...which will allow contact between users should problems arise ...
Right now it's only ..."this works ..so run it"...
So far...no one has posted here claiming that these methods bricked a device ....but the odds are stacking up every day that someone will ...
Please provide testing results with a clearly defined list of working software for users to draw from ...and how to install it properly...
And those users acting as testers should be included in the thread as well ....
And the most important statement of all should be the first line in the thread ...
"Use this software at your own risk"..!!!
I'm not trying to cause issues in your thread ...I'm simply trying to protect you ...and the many devices that your thread will influence...g

Man, a bunch of timid little girls... This is XDA. It was BUILT on peole doing things they weren't supposed to do & trying things new that nobody else would try. How do you think itsme developed all the tools that nearly every kitchen for the last decade has been based on was created? The site is XDA developers & until the iPhone & the influx of cheap smartphones, all the members were developers, serious hobbyists or lurkers. What anyone tries to do or decides not to do is up to them. You wouldn't spend $200,000.00 on timber & hardware to build your dream house if you have never swung a hammer in life, same applies here. It is common sense & people with it learn before they do or are willing to take risk & learn as they do. Heck, back in the day, I bought a lot of six Kaisers just to brick, so that I could work with Jocky on a way to revive bricks, i.e. FrankenKaiser...
In this particular instance, the device are essentially identical. That opens the door for a lot of cross compatibility. Manufacturers like Qualcomm are starting to produce chips (radio) that support numerous bands. Some of the latest have the ability to support as many as 23 different LTE bands. This is good for them, less revisions equal less production costs, & it is good for us as well, since it means more cross compatibility.
Really, Samsung lately has been making devices pretty compatible & unless you are messing with the boot or modem partition, it is pretty hard to make a brick.
Of course, the first thing anyone should ask themselves is WHY THEY ARE DOING THIS? & maybe watch this video:
