Using ROMs from another carrier - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

From my understanding, the newer D2LTE unified builds have support for all carriers, ATT, Verizon, Sprint, etc. But there are ROMs on the Verizon GS3 forums that are not posted here in the ATT GS3 forums that are classified as D2LTE. Even though they are not posted here, do they still have support for this carrier and should we be able to flash them on our ATT device since it is a unified ROM?
AICP (Android Ice Cold Project) being one example

It depends on the developer.
Cyanogenmod states that d2lte covers d2att, d2vzw, etc etc. You'd have to check with them.
Other than that the main problem you would probably have is just network issues.

For future reference, you should always post the thread as it is easier for people to find it. I'll be posting it below in case anyone wants to visit the thread.
[ROM][d2lte][02 APR] AICP - 3.5 - KK 4.4.2_r2[Nightlies] by swift2989
As far as I am aware, you are able to flash this ROM. It's a bit weird to see ROMs that are supported across multiple family of devices not being on other carrier specific forums, unless of course it doesn't support that carrier. I will mention that the CyanogenMod Wiki contains some good information about "D2LTE" here. Please remember that you will never be able to flash anything for the i9300 or the i9305 for now. Flashing those specific ROMs will cause your device to brick and possibly need a JTAG to fix it.

Anyways, I will mention this thread and see if the author wants to post it on here too.

[Q] PAC man ROM toroplus??

Is the PAC man ROM for the toroplus, maguro, toro, crespo etc etc etc?????
look in the dev section and you will see which gnex version its available for
.........
Thanks boss.....I am pretty sure I did that and usually on goo.im it will say which it is for but there is only one d/l i am seeing im going to check again.....I just wanted to ask: is there universal ROMS.....(ex. a developer only makes one rom but it is hybrid on ALL devices, it just has to be flashed, cache cleared, etc) I have read extensively about Android Rooting for a good year now, and I have NEVER seen something like that so I basically am answering my own question, but maybe I am wrong........
no there are no universal roms for the gnex.. you have to check if they are maguro or toro, and then flash the one that you have
It is for the gsm gnex I am currently in communication with the developer and I have a beta to test for the Verizon variant of the ROM. It cannot be released without testers though so if you know someone with the Verizon gnex and wouldn't mind testing the ROM just have them pm me. I have the ROM link. There will also be a toroplus version soon also.
whats going on did the the dev or devs ever port PACmann for toro plus??? I see team syence is that official or a port of a port got a topic/question for senior members and android rooting gurus..... Which ROM do you guys prefer and for what reason..... Jbsourcery4.3, paranoid android(latest builds) and for what reasons.... And would PACman ROM even compete with those two Roms.....? And those two ROMS r my preferences

Noticed there wasn't really any PAC builds for the toroplus. I just compiled one if anybody would be willing to test it as I don't have the device.

[Q] OmniROM Variants Misidentify Device Type

I've tried to install the latest builds of OmniMetal (metalspring) and OmniROM HOMEMADE (PlayfulGod). Both installers seem to misidentify my device as "toroplus". It's a Verizon GNEX, so definitely not toroplus. I would say it's a problem at the OmniROM source level, but it doesn't officially support the GNEX. Thoughts?
Posting here since I'm not allowed to post in the appropriate dev forums
Well, that was a total brain fart. Before I started flashing the ROMs, I upgraded CWM Recovery and managed to install the toroplus version

[Q] Why no Cyanogenmod forum in the Custom ROM Central section?

Why there is no general section to discuss Cyanogenmod on the forums?
Because it depends on the device .. All devices cannot accept the same version CMs

So do the other ROMs in the Custom ROM Central section
Wouldn't a separate CM section provide easier access to general information, than digging in countless device sub forums!?
CyanogenMod is massive, so is there website which even has it's own forums: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/
I think that's why they don't bother having one here
I'm really hoping for a cm12 soon with a new update

Noobish question, but how does an Official build differ from an Unofficial? IE, CM12 vs DU, is DU considered Official because it is unaltered AOSP?

if i'm not mistaken, official builds are done and maintained by a group member from the developing team of any given rom. Unofficial builds are done by any member who does not belong to the developing team and who decides to build any given rom. Also i believe that any lines of code used are not officially submitted and supported and any support would have to be done by the unofficial rom builder and not the developing team.
hope this makes sense and helps in any way.

Makes sense, thanks for the explanation
My last phone was running CM 7.3 Gingerbread, so please bear with my noobness. I'm not big on flashing new ROMs. I like to find a daily driver and run with that.
Right now, I'm trying to decide which ROM to try after stock. I'd like to get rid of a lot of the bloatware and gain more customization. I've heard great things about your ROM in the past on other phones, so am leaning towards it.
Things I absolutely want:
HDMI/Slimport out. I don't know if this feature is ROM specific, or if the G3 does it automatically thru hardware. It works great on stock.
LG's IR Controller apps. I like that the G3 has the IR feature. I have it programmed to replace all my remotes currently.
I'm with MetroPCS. They use TMobile's towers. Should there be any problems (I haven't seen anything on this in search for the 851 and don't think it would be, but thought I could ask people smarter than I).
Do those features work on your ROM? If not, does anyone know what ROMs those features/apps are functioning?

Do not ask about other ROMs, this is NOT the thread for that, flash and find out, you don't like it? Uninstall it, it's simple. Also, regarding asking about if d851 supports METRO, ask the carriers, not in this, this is for the ROM questions, nothing else, please keep the OT to the minimum
Oh, I am sorry. I thought I was in the Q&A thread, not the developer section. Oh wait, I am.
I apoligize for asking about other ROMs... but asking about this specific ROM in it's specific Q&A thread?
Yeah. Replies like yours will definitely keep a lot of stuff to a minimum. Keep up the good work.

freezes
For some reason it freezes when doing heavy task. For example on the web or listening to music it freezes and the system slows down to the point where lock screen takes about a minute to lock. A simple reboot fixes the problem. I am coming off a Clean flash but stock kernel.
Anyone have any luck with using a slimport out to HDMI on this ROM?
Just checking...
I've got a Lg G3 D851 (32GB) but its not the T-mobile version. Does this still mean that I can flash this rom? Or is there anything else I should do?
Can't wait to use this rom so reply as soon as you can people.

I'm kinda new to all this so please don't mind the 'noob' questions. I was under the impression that its not a TMO version if it doesnt say T-Mobile on the phone. :silly: Thank you though, will flash rom right away.
One more question... Is this a stable version of the rom or a test version? Cuz I couldn't figure out which one it is; stable or test version.

its not worth the typing but official says it all....
Bluetooth...
Just installed the rom and its awesome. Just one problem, the Bluetooth doesn't seem to be working properly. Can't connect my smartband. Whenever I try to turn off Bluetooth I get an error saying that Bluetooth has stopped working. Any solutions?

The only reason it would be doing that is if you dirty flashed from another ROM

Nope... I'm 100% sure I did a clean install. Did a clean install again for a second time around 30 minutes ago... still no luck.
It's probably a BT LE device. If you read the last page or two of Bliss Pop or Resurrection you'll see they have issues. Probably something in the base code. I know the Bliss Pop dev says he might have a fix but hasn't released an update.

This may be a stupid question, but does this rom support the knock code?
Thanks!

Oct 20 PAC-ROM download link?

I see a very tempting note on the PAC-ROM thread that there is a 10/20/15 release, but the link goes to the Sept release. Is there a new release? Where? And, d2att is being actively developed, can I switch from d2tmo to d2att without any problems? I understand there are some build prop edits, are those necessary, and if so, what are they? I don't care if my phone reports the wrong version necessarily, but if there are important edits, let me know. But most importantly, I'd like to get the correct link to the d2tmo 10/20 version, if it exists. Thanks!
I am using this d2att rom http://galaxys3root.com/category/t-mobile-galaxy-s3-roms/ ... and it works fine on my t99l.. although it thinks it is a sgh1747.
it doesnt seem to affect the operation any, so Im not going to change it...(It runs faster than stock )
As for the rom you are looking for http://galaxys3root.com/ seems to be the most up-to-date besides XDA..on the internet.. Check there.
I don't use non TW roms personally, but if I remember correctly all the d2att, d2tmo and d2can (T999, I747 and their variants) were merged in to one, d2lte. So the roms in the AT&T forum will probably be what you want. (There's a lot more activity there so they might only be maintaining threads for those roms over there. Just a guess)
