IF YOU DO NOT HAVE AN SGH-T999 DO NOT FLASH THIS MODEM!!!
Prerequistes :
1. UEMJ4 Modem by @DocHoliday77
2. UCUEMJ2 Insecure pre-rooted, init.d supported kernel by @stratatak7 and @upndwn4par
Installation steps (step by step) :
1. Install the ROM.
2. Reboot once, and successfully boot the ROM.
3. Wait five minutes for the ROM to initilize.
4. Reboot into recovery, and flash the kernel and modem you downloaded above.
5. In TWRP, fix root permissions when asked. (I don't know about CWM)
6. Reboot and use the ROM as normal.
[/center]
Mods / hacks :
1. Tether mod by abraham.ramirez
more to come soon...
Changelog from V5 (now short and sweet to the point) :
- Now using debloated base by @DocHoliday77
- KNOX/CarrierIQ removed.
- SELinux disabled in build.prop
- Root enabled by default through AT&T insecure kernel.
- ALL T-Mobile bloat has been removed.
- S-Pen support has been disabled.
- Note 3 Launcher included.
- Note 3 MMS (with mods) included.
- SamsungIME.apk (stock keyboard) has been removed due to a line jump bug.
- Swype removed. (It's outdated unless you pay for the premium version)
- Google Keyboard official update from November 7th included. (4.4 KitKat keyboard)
- Viper4Android (V4A) sound mod included. I wouldn't recommend flashing a sound mod. When prompted for drivers, install CortexA9 with NEON.
- Build.prop tweaks included and detailed. vm.lockprof.threshold has been modified from 500 to 750 in following with LiquidSmooth 2.37
- Init.d tweaks removed due to the current instability of root in 4.3 Touchwiz (will add back at a later date)

To be updated and unlocked when official 4.3 rolls around! Until then please use Doc's leak or Saranhai's leak, they are both great!
I hope the kernel is holding up well for this ROM. It was a bit of a task to get it hacked at first, but we got it. For root issues, just reflash the kernel and clear caches.

Thanks for your hard work, it's working VERY well. Also, this works for AT&T if you guys over there want to flash it of course!
If you want to experience 4.3 as it is for the T999 (without any modifications as of yet) please visit @saranhai 's thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2501303

On the chart it said 11/24 and (LTE) next to it. Does that mean both LTE and non-LTE get it or only the LTE?

Normally, it would mean only LTE but I believe more people have the original T999 and they wouldn't want to make that many people angry. I mean, there's no definite answer, but think about it. We have a new modem for the T999 (It's not LTE) and there was already a system leak of 4.3 T-Mobile's Touchwiz S3 (Non-LTE) and it's what I've used to reference some stuff for this ROM.
Well, time to be a douche and be one of the first to AnTuTu to spam 4.3 T999 on the charts. BRB. (Joke obviously)

Skyrocket 2.3.6 Gingerbread Build
Well well lookie what we have here. Thanks to mikeyinid and whoever else for getting the dump posted. I have completely hooked this **** up to work great on our phones. I haven't encountered any issues yet.
WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO WHITEHAWK?
- Completely deodexed and zipaligned
- Includes OUR stock kernel (same one in Juggernaut)
- Fixed Wifi
- Fixed GPS
- Rooted with busybox
- Somewhat debloated (This is what was removed)
- Replaced AT&T bootup with stock Samsung
- Added init.d scripts for zipalign and set permissions
- Added some misc. build.prop tweaks and edits
- Added latest Market
- Enabled free TMO music in market
While I realize no "stock roms" are to be posted in the dev section, this isn't 100% stock. Modifications had to be made for it to work properly with our phones. Just sayin'.
**** YOU NEED TO KNOW *YES THAT MEANS READ ALL OF THIS!*
1 - There is no setup wizard even on a clean install.
2 - You need to enable "wireless networks" in GPS Settings (GPS WORKS!)
3 - You might find random AT&T **** scattered about. If you do please let me know
4 - Your BASEBAND will still read UVKID. The baseband is the modem, NOT the rom...
Installation Instructions
Same as every other rom you've flashed... but if you insist...
1. Download zip and place on sdcard
2. Boot into recovery and choose to flash zip
OPTIONAL - for a clean install perform a factory reset
3. Reboot
4. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes
5. Reboot
6. Enjoy!

Help...when i installed the rom its saying system software bt AT&T has benn found on your phone
I had flashed the TMOBILE version originally - awesome ROM and great that we now have it here for ATT -
Couple of issues:
Contacts FCs - I found a flashable stock contacts that I flashed and that fixed it for me...
EMAIL (Exchange) didn't work for me - I had to install a stock version from another ROM by using ROOT Explorer and pushing the Sec Email and Exchange Email ap files to system/apps
Everything seems to be working good now -
Couple of things I have also done -
Installed NOTACH Exposed AP - lots of great options you can employ - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2285074
Exposed framework is already installed on this rom so it is pretty easy to install
I also had found a flashable Status Icons File called "trueicon62fix.zip" - I don't recall where I found it - someone in the TMOBILE Threads mentioned it I think - anyway - if you did a google search for that file you probably will find it - it gives you icons in the status bar that look really cool with this rom.
Anyway - all in all it is an awesome rom - and I am sure this is just the beginning! Thaks for the Great ROM!

I downloaded them from a few downloads offered by Jamison904 in the TMOBILE development threads on his "Infamous" ROM -
here is the Contacts link - http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23011596498370563
But I would imagine you could also pull the Contacts file from any STOCK rom you already have and push it to System/APS with Root Explorer....any way - hope this helps - by the way you should thank Jamison904 for this ... his thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2264932

Perfect timing indeed.
I built this back when MH5 first dropped, but never got around to cleaning it up and posting. The introduction of the Nexus 5 and Android 4.4 got me thinking about AOSP again. Soooo...here we are.
Hopefully we'll see 4.4 for the GT-I9505G soon. :fingers-crossed:

Not really. All the GApps framework is there, but I removed everything except Gmail and Maps (basically anything you can get in the Play Store).
I can make a re-bloat zip if anyone wants it, but TBH it would be just as easy to get it from the Play Store).
Crap, now I see the 4.3. Sorry guys, my xda app sucks. It needs to be updated soon. It's not the apps fault I missed the 4.3, it was my blind excitement. I hope they can unlock this MF3 piece of crap. Bounty already exceeded 5 grand lol.
All set up fine Up--nice job--will fine tune tomorrow--
Off to bed, but was wondering did the GPE roms ever have a BlockingMode or Quiet Hours app?
im on Canadian(bell) S4, the Rom installed fine but i lost cell service. Anyone with similar prob/???
Yes, I also lost cell service. I'm with AT&T.

No blocking mode on GPE ROMs.
You can try something like Do Not Disturb Mode from the Play Store.

Cool, will check it out and rom running fine--no issues atm
Good audio--
Did you create this ROM to get ready for the Kit Kat source? Is there an update on the horizon?
@upndwn4par
"Do Not Disturb Mode" app works great--:good:
I wanna keep using this so bad! Flash went ok. Only thing is I also have no signal as previously reported. I tried faux and KT kernels but nothing. When you manually try to add APN settings it doesn't save even after pressing save button.
Edit: I was using philz recovery to flash but switched to twrp and now I have signal with LTE!

Nice Dan. Was running dandroid on my s3 before I got the s4. Was wondering when I'd see some of your work over here. Jumped ship to att? Glad I can still run att roms on t mobile but I always come back to t mobile roms because of wifi calling. Downloading now to play around.

Hey Dan,
Rom is running great on my rogers i337m, love it.
I guess if we want Pictures2SD, we can just use the apk that's been floating around?

Wonderful ROM Dan, Thanks for the upload. Great speed, and everything seems to work with no issues so far. can't get the Kitkat launcher to work yet, keeps requesting for google search even after installing, but I'm sure i can fix that.
It sucks to own the an expensive smartphone and yet be the last to get a routine update, damn Samsung.
Just a noob question if you don't mind. The only feature of TW i love is the Samsung link app. the fact that it flawlessly connects to my laptop for file exploration is just amazing. so is there anyway to install it on this ROM? I can live without it, but life would not really be the same.

In the menu, select "install zip from sdcard" or "install zip from ext_sdcard"

Everyone, if you want data, MUST flash the T999 UVUEMJ4 Modem OR the T999 UVUEMJC MODEM for the T-Mobile Galaxy S III to get data working. You CAN NOT get data unless you do this!!
I am not responsible for what you do to your device, if you flunk college or your phone rings during a business interview and you don't get the job. Nor will I be held accountable if your T999 spontaneously becomes an iPhone. But if your phone cures world hunger then I can be responsible
Please do not kang anything from any of my ROMs, threads, or anything I made without my permission. I will more than likely let you, but please, just ask first! If you are caught moderators will be notified. You may will fool everyone, but not me!
One last thing, if you like this ROM, PLEASE press my thanks button in the bottom-left corner. It shows who enjoyed this. Thank you!

Q: What happened to the developer options?!?!?!
A: Settings->More->About device->Smash 'Build number' until it pops up!
Q: Why is WiFi broken?
A: Flash the insecure kernel, or do a FULL WIPE next time!
Q: Why did you name this ROM "Sultan"?
A: Because it's going to be Sultan-like once it starts evolving.

I actually quit using Tapatalk a few months back just because of that. I'm on the XDA Premium HD app.
I can't wait to test drive this puppy out though. CM hasn't really panned or for me in 4.3/4.4. I just came back to TW 4.1 for stability & reliability.

Yeah, more people need to make forum apps. Tapatalk is just.... wow. The XDA app is better but it still has it's own shortcomings.
Anyway, this ROM definitely is going to go through a bunch of changes. An Aroma installer will be added later, since it's a pain to make them. I can't wait till more mods are made by various people like loserskater and enewman17. They're awesome at that! Expect a whole lot more in the next coming months/weeks! TW 4.3 has a long way to go!
