No of course .. T-is a difference
Such as galaxy s2 > i9100 - i9100g the letter g is a difference in ( rom and root )
I think so! :Confused:

Someone who actually knows the difference will have to explain. For example, SGS2 i9100M (Canadian) is exactly the same thing as i9100 (International), while i9100G is quite different. So, not all model letter designations mean actual differences in hardware and corresponding firmware -- sometimes they are just specific to distribution regions. But you probably don't want to try your luck without knowing for sure...
That being said, I am pretty confident you can try rooting your phone using this method, for example. Logically, it won't cause any harm if it fails, but chances are very good that it will work. Custom recoveries and ROMs are a different story, though...

Congrats, glad to hear! As for the other stuff (custom recoveries and ROMs), unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you, as I have no idea what the actual differences are (if any) between the models...
Your root works .. But there is a problem in all applications for root, such as (root explorer - wifi kill - aptoide store)
So stop working while giving your root property ..

Soon, soon my friend.
I'd selfishly love to see which developers plan to get this phone.
Can wait till friday
I might be getting the Att version of the sgs2. Could the dev between the two devices be shared? They are nearly identical spec wise, with the exception of the radios. I'm curious to see what gets ported at launch from the SGS2
I doubt it. Cdma and gsm development vary a lot on some things.

Cept the Tmob version is going to have a different SoC.

I don't think we have to worry about root.
As far as I know, we just flash a recovery (ClockworkMod) via ODIN and then start flashing kernels and ROMs.

Just because we could flash a port of CWM on the E4GT doesnt mean it'll automatically have root.... We'll still have to find an exploit that will give us root access..... Then ROM development and so on would be able to start.... You can flash a custom ROM without having root but it would be pretty pointless.....

No, there is no exploit regarding this method of rooting. The only "exploit" that would need to be found was if the bootloader was locked, and, judging by the history of EVERY samsung phone, it won't be. so yes, it really is that simple.
flash CWM.
flash su.zip through CWM

Hello, I was curious if you can flash ROMs from the S3's from other carriers besides T-Mobile and also flash ROMs from the international forums. I remeber back when i had my Vibrant all you would have to do is flash the correct boot.img and also replace the keylayout file. Is it as simple as flashing a tmobile boot.img since the keys are all the same? Thank you in advance.
don't do it.

There is a possibility of sharing ROMs with the AT&T model. If you go check out their forum, there are a couple of ROMs which people have successfully flashed on the T-Mobile model. Search the threads and flash at your own risk!

That is totally true. On the Hercules you could flash the skyrocket roms. But the T-Mobile ones are usually better. The att ones are really only better when att leaks first.
Don't do it was an oversimplification, however.
Just heard about too many people flashing the international roms.

Nope, the hardware internally is too different. I doubt there'll be an easy method to port the ROMs either.
The AT&T ROMs on the other hand should be fairly easy to port and I think there is a group working towards this goal.
You will lose your insurance.
Just to let you know, you will lose your phone's insurance, this is not the same as the 90 day warranty. I remember I had flashed my vibrant to a rom using the international model, about six months later I got a letter in the mail saying assurion would no longer insure my phone, because it wasn't the right model. I might have been able to add the text file that adds the correct model number, but I don't know if that really works or how to I it.

In this case they could have seen the flashing being done and the changing of the build.prop file. That would make the most sense to me.
You obviously haven't been reading...heck go for it.
You CAN NOT do other roms, as was stated, the hardware is different.
Not that hard to search. Do it and report back with results.

Risky is an i9300 rom because the SoC is 100% different. We all have the same SoC so it's not as big of a deal.

Hey,
How do you configure the apn settings? I'm on an att rom and love it, on wifi it is fine but when it says 4g away from wifi no luck with service. I can get edge, but that is it.
thanks,
BillY
Ok I figured it out but I cant get the att apn to stick does the phone have to be unlocked?
Just checked the development forums and they are basically empty.
Is it just that the phone is new? Or has there been no way to root it yet? I'm thinking of getting this phone but I'd like to know if I'll have the option of rooting/loading a custom ROM.
One last question - is this phone any different then the nexus? it seems to have the same hardware other then a better camera and have LTE.
Thanks
Nexus 4 is optimus G with no amplifiers/filters for LTE, less storage, different camera, wireless charger, RGB led.
No roms cause thats the international version section, its still kinda rare and the boot still locked.

I'm in Canada so I'm not entirely sure, but if Sprint is like any other carrier they will push an update to 4.2 loooooonnnnnggggg after the devs here have cooked about a dozen customs Rom's for it. They are working on AOSP now. Shouldn't be too long.

From the looks of it, there are a few devs that have this device (judging from the "root-testing" discussion). I'm sure that it won't be too long before we see some work. Still a relatively new device here in the US.
I'm getting my hands on it tonight, so I'll give her a looksie. If I can do something with what I find, then I will. It's my first LG (primary body of work on Moto devices), so it might be slow...

Considering the similarities between the domestic variants of the Note 2 and their international counterparts, would anyone be willing to test some of the success that the folks over in the AT&T forum have had with porting the international N7100/N7105 firmware/ROM's over to the Sprint Note 2
Check out these two threads over in the AT&T forum and see what you all think:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016575
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018411
The basic gist of the procedure is to use a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP to flash a stock N7100/N7105 firmware, and then flash your carrier specific modem/kernel.
Why would anyone want to do this? Well, for starters, you would benefit from built-in stock-supported tethering, and a few other features that carriers disable (YMMV). But mainly this means that the domestic versions of the Note 2 can benefit from the development of the international versions! So, when the latest version of Android comes out for the rest of the world, we aren't stuck here waiting for our carrier to catch up to everyone else...
So what do you all think? Anyone willing to try?
Clarification: Just so everyone is on the same page here, I want to stress that, while this process is successful on both the AT&T and T-Mobile GN2's, this is VERY dangerous if you do not know what you are doing. I would NOT recommend anyone try this unless you are confident in your abilities to recover from a brick situation.
Again, if you are even REMOTELY interested in trying this out on your own, don't even think about bothering with it unless you absolutely know what you are doing! I take no responsibility for any bricks that come from someone trying this without the proper experience and know-how. You have been warned!
it works on the ATT variant because it and the international are both GSM. We are CDMA, i doubt that it would be as easy. Using verizon ROMs might be a different story though.

See, I'm not so sure. At least this time around, the radio's are pretty much the only major differences, and those can be governed by the kernel and modem.bin, so if anyone's willing to try it, it could be well worth a try!

There has to be, at least, a dev developed tool that will convert 1 notes rom to another. That way a dev can create a rom, then easily spread it to all devices.
I can't imagine making a script or modifying a kitchen to output for the slight differences between phone would be that difficult.

You know, I'm not even a Sprint subscriber. I don't own the Sprint GN2. I have absolutely nothing to gain by sharing an idea with all of you. If you think it's a stupid idea, fine, but there's no reason to be an @$$hole about it either.
Now this could turn out one of two ways. Either you're right, and it was a stupid idea, for not working on CDMA GN2's, but at least we tried and now we know for sure -OR- my idea works, maybe with a little finagling, but still possible, and now (with some help) I've just opened up the door for domestic users to take advantage of the development being done around the world; something you've rarely, if ever, been able to do... You're welcome.
So yeah, don't be an @$$hole.

Should he lie and say your idea is good? would that make you feel better? It won't work. The partitions between the Note variants are different. It not the same as the S3's.

Either you're right, and it was a stupid idea, for not working on CDMA GN2's, but at least we tried and now we know for sure -OR- my idea works, maybe with a little finagling, but still possible, and now (with some help) I've just opened up the door for domestic users to take advantage of the development being done around the world; something you've rarely, if ever, been able to do... You're welcome.
So yeah, don't be an @$$hole.

Ask anyone that has ever flashed a rom from a different carrier how it worked out for them... Only result I have ever heard of is brick. So forgive me for not kissing your ass because of your stupid idea. The people that are capable of porting roms have either already thought of it and it's not that easy, or its out of the realm of possibility at this point. So all your doing is putting useless thoughts into the heads of people who won't know any better and end up effing their phones. So go suck a boner

geez enough guys. plenty of useful stuff has been pulled from the multiple variants. thinking outside the box is how we get what we have and grow the community and our devices.
it can't (or would be difficult to) do it
no reason to rip each other apart over it.

This is posible but is not like flashing att rom and putting sprint modem. You got to configure the rom to make it cdma, I remember back in the htc evo days they made t mobile my touch compatible and others htc European with sense 2.1 compatible, only issue was no 4G

Hi i know its noob to ask, but can i flash the rom file for the E975 or even the korean variant on the L01e? its damn sad that no one seem to develop a rom for the L01e.. even the official JB is not out.. so can i flash it?
no one has this model. try it yourself.
Which carrier are you on? I can check out the kernel configs to let you know if they are compatible. From what I remember, your display driver is different from ours so it may not be compatible. I'm pretty sure that was Docomo that that was the issue on.

i got this phone from Japan Seller, its an unlocked Docomo NTT version of L01E.
if u need any more info like the details do ask i'd be more than happy to provide
cos i saw the Korean F180KL version has 13mp cam its the same as the JP version. i'm on the IMM76L build and software version L01E10a. i saw some uploaded the c version but still its under ICS... hence i didnt bothered flashing it..
since other variants has been released with 4.2 hence i wondered if it might work .
anyway to config those kernels with the display?
*sidenote, from wad i know from my seller, its perma unclocked from Docomo so even if i flash it , i wont lose the unlock, but sadly i am also removed from their OTA updates.. so yea..
I believe L01 and F180 share the optimus g name only.
yea i know they may just be the same name, as per Xboxfan mentioned, is it possible to ammend some settings and it will work? since the TV function doesnt work outa Japan ,it doesnt matter even if i lose that function. Current i'm rotted with the help of jcase's thread, i didnt install the CWM tho, i would love to try and flash it out but seemingly that the unbrick option is also not catered to L01E, i dare not do so yet..
try as i might, i'm looking up to cook a rom specifically for this phone using the base of the sources but i'm really really REALLY new to this and frankly speaking, reading those threads up on this cooking has made me gone nowhere.. so my hope now is that what Xboxfan said is true and i might be able to get JB on this heck of a phone
When I get a chance, I will make you a kernel. Add me on gtalk and remind me from time to time if I don't have anything within a week or two. It shouldn't be hard. Your drivers aren't way different, but they are different enough to where Roms for other devices wouldn't work.

With your kernel, would it be possible to flash other roms ?
Thank you.
