I have heard of some people using kernels from the i9505 forum and was wondering how do you do that? I flashed a couple and can't seem to get the wifi working am I missing something? I am on stock 4.3 and wanted to try something other than KT kernel.
Thanks
bump?

I've been going all around the forum not being able to figure out what ROMS and kernels will work with T999v Wind version of the S3. I bricked my phone once already by installing the wrong kernel, so I don't wanna mess around again too much without knowing what roms and kernels are working. I've read around that we can flash T-mobile roms as long as they don't contain radio files. I also read on another thread that as long as the boot, modem and amss files aren't in the rom, we're good to go. Now I'm pretty new to the Android community so I'd like some help before I have another disaster on my hands.
Thanks.
*Disclaimer: I am not a Wind user so don't quote me on this but...
I don't believe any of the custom roms in the T Mobile dev forum come with radios. Except for the stock images made to flash with Odin. The main thing to remember as far as kernels go, if you flash a touchwiz rom you need a touchwiz (or stock) kernel. If you flash an AOSP rom you need an AOSP kernel or you will be stuck in a bootloop.
BTW, this rom has been confirmed working on Wind Mobile.
Thanks. Now I had a question about kernels. They still need to be for the T-Mobile version of the phone right? As long as that's true I shouldn't really have a problem using the kernel?

Yes, I believe you will be fine with any T Mobile specific kernels. Still, the important thing before flashing anything is to make sure you make a backup just in case.
That rom will work fine.

I'm on a Wind GS3 and I'm currently using FreeGS3 R5 with Trinity Alpha 19 kernel. Works great.
edit: Just updated to R6, still great.

Tiberius does that to Telus based roms. Probably a good idea to ask in the kernel thread about it. Or flash T-Mobile stock and debloat with titanium backup and flash Telus modem. Don't have to, but personally it works better in my area anyway.

I know that you can put KT kernel to Hyperdrive but I've heard there were some problems regarding certain functions in camera and etc. Has anyone tried it and run into any issues using 4.2.2 versions? Want to get an idea of whats out there before jumping. The KT thread mostly talked about Verizon users and this phone I'll be flashing is on Tmo.
Hi XDA Members,
I have an average understanding of rooted android devices and roms. I currently have a Tmobile Galaxy Note II (T0ltetmo)(T889) that is rooted. It has TWRP on it. I am running currently pacman rom (pac_t0ltetmo-4.3-20140128.zip) which works fine.
Here is the problem.... I am trying to upgrade to a Pacman Rom that is based on Android 4.4 which I have found. I installed the Pacman rom 4.4 & GAPPS stock 4.4 which works flawlessly, the only problem is..... My Radio doesn't work! I have my GSM Sim in and nothing comes up! Heres the thing aswell... I installed other roms that are based on 4.4 and the radio's doesn't work on any of those ROMs either, as soon as restore my other backups that are 4.3 the radio works.
What could be the problem? Is there something I am forgetting to do that the developers didn't tell me? Do I need to install something else that wasn't specified?
Please help!
Flash the newest kernel and modem if you haven't already. I noticed much the same when just testing 4.4 from a 4.1 rom.

SOLVED! I flashed just the modem and everything was fine! Thank you.
So I have searched around and so far I have been unable to find a custom ROM that mentions support for TMO's WiFi calling. Are there any such ROMs or am I just SoL?
If there are not any that support it, any suggestions for the best running S3 ROM? I am about to deploy (hence the desire for WiFi calling) and I am still running on an old 4.1.2 Hyperdrive ROM. I'd like to update my ROM to a KitKat based one before I go, but I don't have a lot of time to tinker with it on the offhand chance that it does not install clean. So I am looking for something solid. If the kernel needs to be updated to run a particular ROM, please note that in your replies so that I can find the right one if needed.
S3 Model# SGH-T999 (non LTE)
Baseband Ver. T999UVUEMJ4
Kernel: 3.0.31 - 370274 (I remember this is a custom kernel, but I don't remember who made it, just that it is from 2012)

enewman17 has a rom based on Tmobile code. Its called S3Rx 3.0, and it does have WIFI calling... Works quite well.. Its

Only ROMs built from stock T-Mobile firmware will have WiFi calling. S3Rx 3.0 is a good choice.
