phone freezing on ND8 kk any ideas - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

so i updated the wifes S3 to ND8 KitKat and now it keeps freezing, did the full wipe and install, ive used wicked 7.1, and tribute rom both have the same issues running kt with both, i've full wiped and reinstalled both, seems like if you try and do to much if freezes, there is nothing installed on the phone yet just what comes with the roms, not using anything yet and still does it, any ideas, should i use the stock kernel, or stock rom.. this should have plenty of memory... any ideas to lean towards??? need help happy wife happy life lol

Take the SD card out, Odin the stock ND8 tar after backing up what you want from the internal storage, try it without the SD card in. If the problem doesn't reoccur that way, back up everything you want from the SD card, format it on your PC and only put back what you absolutely must on the SD card, if anything, then put it back in and see how it does.

thank you, i actually done that anuways, the first time i updated her phone to kitkat i lost everything on her card, she wasnt happy, but i ended up finding the stock kernel and it has solved the problem, seem to be something with KT

Good catch. Yeah, for some reason not all of the "same" phones work exactly alike.
You're welcome!

[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.

Heimdall and l710 what am I doing wrong?

OK my s3 is fully up to date if that helps anything. I'm using ubuntu 14.04 with heimdall and heimdall fronted installed from the repos. I'm following this guide http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_d2spr but i never see the mentioned blue bar when flashing and I can't boot into cwm despite being told that the flash was successful.. What exactly am I doing wrong? I want cm on my device but i need to do a full nandroid backup of stock first which I can't do without a custom recovery. It's kinda a catch 22.
Using heimdall is iffy. Odin through Windows is probably your only sure way of getting it to work.

Except the only windows machine i have is a netbook and it's hard to find a dl link for odin. Anyway I used the towel root metod and flashed with rom manager which worked surprisingly.

normally i'm not the one to say this but its very easy to find the download link for Odin if you search through google.........and i'm on a windows netbook myself and its been working fine with both Heimdall and Odin.....and nice that you used the towel root method...........but i would suggest going to philiz touch recovery, i personally went straight for it when i came to the s3 but hey rom manager worked nice

Install the app through a file browser like Astro, run the app, click the button in the app that gives you your MSL.

Galaxy s3 4.4 kitkat question

Guys I have a galaxy s3 from boost mobile. I never did the OTA update for 4.3 because I didn't want to get KNOX. I have flashed 4.3 roms with CWM recovery and KNOX removed but never like 4.3 so I would always restore my nandroid backup of "The Peoples Rom" which is running 4.1.2. I have read that if you did the OTA for 4.3 you'll have KNOX the device will brick if you try and do something like that. Now heres my question......
I want to try out a 4.4 kitkat rom for the galaxy s3 sph-L710 variant but read that you NEED the ND8 modem or kitkat wont work. The problem is I read ND8 will put KNOX in your bootloader. Does that mean I wont be able to restore my nandroid of "The Peoples Rom" on 4.1.2 without bricking? The actual 4.4 roms dont have anything KNOX related but the modem does? I have asked around and people arent really answering my question.

[Q] Data dropping at random, any help?

Hey, this is my very first post here, so hopefully I'm in the right place and not repeating questions already asked, however my searches are turning up zilch in regards to the specifics of my issue.
I've had this problem follow me from rom to rom. I don't know if it started while I was still on Jellybean roms or after I hopped onto KitKat, but it has been with me for a while now.
When I'm going about my day, data will suddenly drop. The icon still displays 4G or LTE, but apps that need data won't connect and the browser just hangs. After rebooting, nearly always, the phone will be in 3G, even though the location has great 4G. It will work from here on out, or until it decides to crap out once again. It has done it with 3G too, though, the problem is not only with 4G.
In fact, I've noticed, especially as of late, that my service is awful. I can be in areas where I've usually had full bars, now I have just one bar.
On stock, I could just click PRL update or whatnot, but that's not an option anymore. Could it be that these sort of things are out of date? I'm really only familiar with flashing roms, not flashing kernels or radios.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Carbon Rom (Nightly - released 07/07/14, I believe)
KitKat 4.4.4
Previous KitKat roms, same issue:
SlimKat
CyanFox
Carbon
Cyanogenmod
Paranoid Android
Make a nandroid backup, flash an MK3 (TouchWiz 4.3) ROM temporarily, if you're on the MD4 bootloader.
Then in the stock dialer, ##72786#.
After, update PRL and Profile. Then restore your nandroid and find out if that helped. You could also check to see if Sprint is working on upgrading your area.
