It's stuck on off and I'm afraid of being stuck on 3G permanently.

I'm on Galaxy SIII from Sprint. I was running latest Beanstalk and same issue happened to me and others once flashing the 4.4.2.249 build if I remember right, and we lost LTE ability, 3G worked. It looks like the problem was related to the Cyanogenmod 11 source code which Beanstalk is based on.
In order to fix it, we had to revert back to a stock rooted 4.3 rom, wait until had LTE back (which was few minutes for me), and then back to a previously working Beanstalk Rom. I tried to recover from my backup before going to rooted 4.3 rom but that did not bring back my LTE so that's why I went back to 4.3 rooted first and then after getting LTE on that I recovered from my previous backup.
Seems other roms based on the same source are all having same issue. I'm waiting for someone to confirm that LTE works before doing any other Rom flashes. I love the Beanstalk Rom by the way and the amazing work of Cyanogenmod team.

Works on AOSB, Updating PRL and profile in between flashes can help.

no 4g/lte on 2 different roms

First rom was slim bean
second was liquid smooth
Since it's happening on both, I know I'm doing something wrong
I just don't know what exactly it is.
Do the custom roms use different frequencies?
Would flashing a new modem(i know nothing about them) help?
this might help

Need to go back to a TW based rom, reprovision, ##72786# in dialer
Then you will have 4g back
If going to flash any aosp rom after this- most have lost 4G capability past 5/28 versions
I am using the 5/28 slimbean with fine 4G

[SOLVED] Sprint galaxy s3 gets stuck at boot unless using stock Rom

So I've done some searching in the forum (on phone) and wondered if anyone else is having an issue flashing roms other than stock rooted.
I've tried all kinds of other roms cm, miui, liquid smooth, et cetera, and they all get stuck at boot. This is a new thing because I've run all these roms in the past.
I'm on moar 6.1 and it's a great Rom, but I'd like the option to change roms at some point...
You are naming AOSP roms. If you have a newest S3, please try with an updated version. Start with SlimBean build 2( exactly that one) because it's confirmed to work with newest models.

Dude....it wasn't the ROM's fault at all, nor the phone's....it was the loose nut behind the wheel....me.
I forgot (have been forgetting) to format data. For whatever reason, I was manually formatting just the minimums. DANGIT! Works like a charm now...or rather I'm working like a charm now.
Thanks anyway.

[Q] No sound on Liquid Smooth

Just got a SGS3 L710 and got it rooted and installed liquid smooth. everything worked fine but just plugged in my head phones and got no sound out of power amp. Tried the stock player, still no sound. thought it maybe all the software i installed so i booted into recovery and wiped everything and reinstalled liquidsmooth, still no sound.
Edit: i also googled it and tried to restart 6+ times, still no sound. tried wiping cache, no sound again

I followed the directions to root here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596697, bootloader is "philz_touch_6.00.8-d2spr.tar.md5"
name of the rom file is "LS-LP-v4.0-2014-11-30-liquid_d2spr"
as for baseband and modem i am not sure how to find that, i am using an unactivated sprint pre-paid l710 atm.
edit: baseband is L710TVU0ANF4
i did manage to download slimkat 4.4.4 and its got sound and everything else working.

you have the L710T not the L710.....and that's why Liquid isn't working for you go to the Liquid download page and get v4 aka 5.0 LP and use the D2BST one and that one will work for your device.....and incorrect your bootloader if the same as your modem and baseband so NF4 for future reference and help and don't just flash anything you see on this XDA thread which is made for the L710 as most won't work on the L710T

So i am figuring d2spr is sprint and d2bst is Boost, mine is a sprint prepaid but i am assuming that since it is a prepaid it shares similar hardware with the boost version. so i can only use roms tagged with d2bst unless it states specifically that i covers all models. would this logic also cover kernals too? i see some kernals out there that offer over clocking and the like that i am interested in.
would i be able to use this kernal?

thanks for all your help saves me a lot of trouble in the future.

not necessarily it's that the Liquid Smooth dev for the L710T thought it was only for boost so he named the build D2BST but it works for the Virgin and Sprint variant since it's the same baseband and modem.....you can flash other d2lte/d2spr roms but who knows if they will work.....the ones that will work are TW based custom roms tho....

Kit Kat Touchwiz ROM ?

Hello,
Is there any kit kat touchwiz ROM available which is somewhat stable? I would like to be able to use tap n pay. I have a Verizon NOte 2 with such a ROM and it works great. I am upset that it is so hard to find a ROM for the tmobile phone.
I guess Tmobile never released kitkat for this phone?
Lol .. :sly:
Use S.W.A.R.M (Stock) or Test Rom 1.2 (it has some S5 apps - does not have wifi calling) follow all instructions for installing.
Sorry SWARM isnt KitKat. Rom of Thrones is - which is the base for my Test Rom 1.2 - Good Luck.

Thanks,
I did try test ROm and my wifi wasn't working. I now know that its because I needed to update my baseband .. Which I have now done. SO ill give one of those a try.
I also understand that we can load AT&T roms on this phone as long as we are using the T889 Radio,,, so I am looking at those roms as well

Yes. You can also try AGNi Kernel if Wifi still isnt working. From my experience 4.3.0 is the best so far.

I had to flash the wifi fix. Im not sure if flashing a kernel would have fixed my wifi problem. As I understand; the issue is that my phone has the original bootloader that it was shipped with. it doesnt have the 4.3 OTA bootloader therfore I had to install this wifi fix.
SO now I have a Tmobile T889 running an ATT touchwiz rom... I have working LTE(LTE worked with Tmobile roms too). To get the LTE to work I had t flash the latest tmobile radio. My Google wallet tap n pay works again. I am extremely happy about this setup!
Oh... and I am using AT&T go as the service... not Tmobile

Yes flashing a kernel would have fixed the wifi. Flashing the patch wouldve probably made things worse to be honest..now the only way to revert the patch is to odin back to the original firmware...
Im on 4.1.2 Bootloader myself. Havent upgraded to anything above that..i only flash kernels and the modems. Works fine for me. Only issue is the charging while phone is off doesnt work.
Which Rom did you use?

Working custom rom on FreedomPop device

Hello every one,
I see many of us own the sprint device and use it on freedompop network and so like to compile a list of custom rom's that can be used on this device.
So if you are using custom rom's on freedompop device, plesae share it. Thank you
Any stock based ROM should work fine. I have an S3 on Freedompop using The People's ROM...that developer is a real hardass though

I have never tried a CM ROM. But stock based 5.x should work fine. Backup with a nandroid and try a CM ROM. The Freedompop provisioning should not be touched.
I have a freedompop branded galaxy s3 and have tried a few roms from here. They've all worked: spirit, carbon rom, and slimkat. Wound up staying on spirit for now. Tried to flash CM11 but it didn't seem to work with or like the recovery I had at the time and I didn't feel like switching it out just to try CM (think it was a status 7 error or something). Haven't tried any 5.x roms but the main thing you'll want to reinstall after flashing is the freedompop messaging app. That's the main thing you need to make calls, and it should be compatible with lollipop.
