[Q] Latest STABLE Cyanogenmod or other rom for Boost Mobile Variant

I would like to find a Rom for My Boost Mobile Galaxy S 3. I have used a couple different roms and none were very stable, Kept getting "android UI has stopped" issues. I am looking for the latest stable custom rom for Galaxy S 3 Boost Mobile Variant.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers

By CM or other do you mean other AOSP type, or TouchWiz included? ND8 /NDC TouchWiz 4.4.2 is very, very stable.

I am cool with a touchwiz ROM but I want to be able to tether and stuff like a aosp ROM. Really prefer an aosp Rom. Though. Link to that touch wiz ROM?
Thanks cheers

Almost every TouchWiz ROM has native free tethering any more. It's easy to flash it on stock rooted TouchWiz, too.

The first one is Wicked X. Stone of the early versions you still had to flash the tethering mod after, he might have it all worked out by now.
The second is what I'm running now, and he's making it more and more to look like AOSP, like all the way, so maybe you'd like it better. I believe it includes tethering and haven't tested that yet but again if not it's easy to flash.
You have to Odin the stock ND8 tar the first time before you flash any ND8 or NDC TouchWiz 4.4.2 ROMs. You'll find it in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2738533
That will wipe your internal storage so back that up first. The Odin the latest Philz Touch Recovery, use it to re-root, then flash away.
Never Odin anything older than ND8 after that or you'll brick your phone. You can still flash from recovery anything you want except not an older modem, too.

Your auto correct makes this question difficult to understand. What exactly is the issue? Ktoonez kernel is compatible with this device. Many folks swear by it. What's your issue please?

It is compatible. What modem are you using? Are you on KitKat? Try reactivating your phone by going into your phone dialer and pressing ##72786# give it awhile. Sometimes custom kernels take awhile to capture data.

[Q] Can a S3 be returned to stock?

Greetings,
I am very new to the sprint S3 and i have only owned it for a few weeks now. I love the phone and its a huge upgrade from what i have been using. I have rooted a couple of phones and have used custom rom's and such but never on this device. I had a lg optimus T that i rooted and flashed.
I am thinking about rooting and flashing this device to cyanogenmod ( and i think the automated installer will work from the looks of it so far anyway ) but i have seen several times over the internet that some features of the phone might not work properly after the flash. Would i be able to return the phone back to stock rom if i flash over to cyanogenmod? Mind you right now i have no way to backup the nand or factory rom.
My phone has been updated to kitkat also if that matters.

To go completely back to stock with stock recovery and everything you would use Odin. You say it has been updated to KitKat. I assume you mean stock OTA ND8 so if that is true make sure you DON'T Odin anything lower. You will be able to start over on a shiny new phone if you do because this one will be toast.

Yes, you would just use Odin on a PC to flash the stock ND8 tar file and it would be fresh as a babies bottom. Well, maybe not but it would put everything literally back to how it was when it was brand new.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2738533
It would also wipe your internal storage, so make sure you save pics, videos and downloads off of it (move to the MicroSD card) first.
Just NEVER ever Odin anything older than ND8, or try to flash an older modem than ND8 or you'll brick your phone.
It's a great phone, especially with KitKat! Enjoy and have fun!
P.S. FYI, questions go in the Q&A section.

Play Store disguise request.

I have a galaxy s3 rooted with cm11 and cm cwm based recovery and I want to download magic 2014 directly from the play store yet I will not let me install it and I know it is compatible. Is there a way I can disguise my device from the play store as another so I can download it?

Change the build.prop. "d2spr" is the identifier for the S3 , there are three instances that you have to change. Change them all to "klte".

I have d2lte mine is a newer s3 and d2spr does not work. And all of the ones I changed did not allow me to download. Can you label the lines to see if I have changed all that are needed?

There are three. If you changed three then you changed them all. Go into Application Manager, then All, then Google Play Store, then wipe data and try downloading again.

by newer s3 do you mean the "T" model?

I mean LTE

I am just going to post my build.prop.

the D2LTE is literally all US s3's cause all of them have LTE and it was easier to develop for them as a unified branch as apposed to the D2SPR or D2BST/D2VMU, D2VZW the list goes on and what will work fro you phone is to see what Carrier you have ie Sprint/Boost or what ever it may be....but if only D2LTE works for your S3 then.....i have no idea but as ryan said change what's in your Build Prop

I have and it is refusing to work.

Did you reboot? Wipe Play Store data?

This is the reason I no longer develop for AOSP, the simplest stuff just doesn't work and other devs don't take the time to do bug fixes because they are doing multiple devices that they don't even have. Sorry for the rant.
My ROMs: Wicked X & Wicked S5 Xperience

It's alright

No 3g or LTE on custom roms, only 1x.

I've made sure I was on ND8 before flashing, yet I still have no 3G or LTE on either of the lolipop roms I've tried. I've also tried backing up and restoring APN files from stock, and that didn't work either. My PRL and profile are up to date, I made sure before flashing.

if you have the Sph-L710T then that could explain it...if not then i don't know what could be causing it..

You found try the dialer code for reactivation if you're on TouchWiz- ##72786#

I'm on the SPH-L710. Turns out the standard rom just displays 1x RTT as 3g. I've been on 1x the entire time I've had my pone. I don't get proper 3g or LTE at all.

will this wipe my phone?

No. But you have to be on TouchWiz.
