Is there anyway to have a stock Sprint g2 that will work on att.. Rightnow I have it running just fine with the tmo cm11 from the sprint section. I would like a more factory rom so my wife doesn't tare it up LOL. Reason I have a Sprint g2 is a friend gave it to me and like I said its working all good with the cm11.. Thanks for any help
Nope. I dont believe so. Sorry.
ok thanks for the response Just a thought if there was a stock rom that could handle a loki kernel it should work but I didn't know if there was a good loki kernel handy.... I was thinking alls you would have to do is flash the aboot then the modem then a att stock rom and everything else would fall into place as far as the apns

Sorry if this sounds like a really nooby question.. My girlfriend has a SGSII on Telus, that I rooted a long time ago, but now I'm wondering what roms to put on her phone. Do I have to use a rom specifically for telus? or can any t-mobile rom work? Do I need to flash a new radio or modem?
I have a Telus Note, and I can use any ATT rom available, just wondering if it works the same way for these phones.
Thanks for your help!
You can use any T989 ROM. Not sure if Wi-Fi calling will work on it. Here is a link from a great dev that made a nice ROM based on your ICS update. I've only heard good things about it.

Awesome, thanks for your help!
Hey guys, I just got a S3 off of craigslist and have T-Mobile service but still have an AT&T ROM so mobile hotspot, nav and other features aren't working. Is there a T-Mobile RUU available or would I be better off rooting it and going with a custom ROM?
So T-Mobile Rom on an AT&T device is ok?
Like they have no problems..
Just being cautious.I'll flash and see one and update you!!

So far I've used the "SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT V7.0" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682) to root and install CWM recovery. From recovery I successfully flashed Jelly Beans build 15 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973982) and so far everything appears to be working well except for 4g. In the notification area I have "G" and then "3G" but no 4G even in areas where I could pick it up before flashing.
This is an AT&T S3 (i-747) and I used the i-747 image to root/ flash recovery via the toolkit and then flashed the Tmobile variant of Jelly Beans.
Figured it all out. Thanks to this thread I was able to successfully flash a T-Mobile i747 engineering rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771021) which also flashed the modem enabling TMo frequencies. Then I was able to reroot and flash a recovery meant for a t999 so in essence my phone is no longer an i747 but a t999 but with a radio that actually supports 4g/ lte. Basically what the new S3 Tmo is launching. My Jellybeans rom which was based off of a verizon build wouldn't allow 4g so I had to replace it with Darthstalker (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014442) which I haven't played around with too much yet but so far is awesome (native tethering works, one of my complaints about other roms). Ah 4G is nice, hit 12Mbps down... So long Sprint... So long Evo "4G"
thank you for the info! very helpful
What area are you, where you get those dl and up speeds? Thanks for the links!

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

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

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....
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?
Hey Guys,
Hope you guys and gals are doing well. I wanted to know if there is rom for LG G2 (LS980) the latest build without the sprint bloatware? The current rom installed is "ZVD" but the knock code doesn't work and the software update option is missing. I got this from a friend and I am guessing he didn't flash it properly.
so I want to know the following things:
1. Can someone or has someone worked on the ZVE rom and removed the Sprint bloatware, If yes can someone please share it?
2. Is it possible to flash a D802 rom over LS980? I know noob question but still
3. I am not in USA so if I flash the rom to ZVC will I have carrier restriction? and would I be able to update it OTA to ZVD ? even if I am not in USA?
and lastly
4. Could you guys recommend a good rom which is less bloated with custom stuff and nearer to the stock international version of the phone providing the G2 experience as it should be?
Thanks.
Try cloudyfa's ROM. It will keep you with everything you need. Do not flash a d802 ROM. You will destroy your device. You can unlock it to work. Cloudyfa's ROM will allow you to use it international as you are.
...or you can just root with StumpRoot, install Titanium Backup and debloat (frost/defrost) yourself. I've always been of the opinion that the best ROM is always a stock rooted ROM. That's just my opinion/experience, no offense to any of the custom ROMs out there.
My G2 LS980 is on ZVE, i rooted with StumpRoot and froze what i considered unnecessary with Titanium Backup. Works for me just fine.
Nice to see you still around lord lugard.
Always be careful so as to not stop something that might be necessary as you can break yourself.
So very true.
