From AT&T Custome ROM to TMobile Custom ROM? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey guys, I have been having more than normal dropped calls and poor signals so I have decided to move to an actual TMobile ROM to match with my T889 phone.
I am coming from an AT&T based SKy Note Air G2 ROM with the MK7 modem and PSN_AGNi_pureSTOCK-v3.9.5_N7105_4.3_AROMA-signed Kernel, I also had to do a WIFI patch because I upgraded from the 4.1.2 BL to avoid Knox issues. I have TWRP back from March this year. I was wondering if I need to do anything special before installing the JEDI ROM.
Any helpful guides to install this ROM? I have checked the ROM page but couldn't get the info I want.
Can changing back to a ROM native to your carrier help with service signal?

TMO T999L questions

Hello I have a couple questions about my T999L I am running a stock deodexed rom but the baseband and the build #s don't match baseband is MK4 and build MK7 is this a problem ? Also I am on version 4.1.2 I would like to get up to a custom 4.3 Rom what ones can I use? I had to come back to this because my wifi wouldn't work? thank for any help.
Its quiet possible that you had different Modem than your Rom. No issues. It sounds like you got this phone from someone else. They may not have flashed insecure kernel. That's the reason for Wi-Fi Not Working.
So long you don't have signal issues, its fine to keep that modem. As to 4.3 Roms, there's plenty to choose from.

manual 4.4.2 update for m919 vs m919n

Quick question?....now that the 4.4.2 ota official update has came thru. Does anyone know of anyone working on a stock rom mirroring the 4.4.2 ota.. In a flashable rom zip form... Not g.e or miui just the same ota 4.4.2 in a rom form ... for those that dont want to update to 4.4.2?
Alot of people use the Metro PCS s4 m919n which is the same as m919 literally besides the metro bloat and we use tmobile m919 roms..all day on Metro s4 thats why i asked ...
becasue it may be a easy way to get 4.4.2 on metros m919N which as far as i know has yet to se a 4.4.2 update.
If this is possible im thinking about flashing Odin uvuemk2 on my METRO S4 making it a official stock m919 4.3 then trying the 388mb update.zip that someone has managed to mirror from the ota. That should put my m919n on tmobiles 4.2.2
Dont believe any bootlaoder or baseband issue will arrise these phones are super identical And run eachothers roms from 4.1.2 all the way too what we currently have.
Any insight will be great

No bootloader or baseband issues will a rise, I've successfully ODINed quite a bit of tmo specific stuff onto my M919N and it works perfectly fine. It's now a M919 of course.
I'm a bit confused about your question though, so you do want 4.4 stock tmo on your S4 or not? Or are you asking of the possibility of getting a 4.4 stock M919N ROM that's still metro? Because if you just simply want 4.4 stock tmo, all you have to do is odin the stock firmware like you said and make sure to triangle away if your device is custom then you'll be able to OTA and get 4.4

what modem is best for tmobile network

I unlocked the att note 2 and I'm trying to use it in tmobile. I get 4g but my call signal keeps dropping and it says emeegency calls 9nly from time to time. The signal bars keep dropping out. Im currently running tmobile rom on mk6 4.1.1
i use the official ATT modem that was released with the 4.3 ROM. And use one of the ATT rom as well. Unless you really need Wifi Calling, I think just stick with ATT rom and modem
MK6 or even new 4.4 modem work fine on T-Mobile. I'm using eZkat 2.0 ROM (KitKat 4.4.2) with no call issues.

Moving to another ROM (JEDI specifically): THings to be Aware of?

New note 4 owner in need of some guidance..

Hey guys! So i now have a sprint note 4. Looking for a touchwhiz rom, prefer 6.0.1, with theme options, bluetooth, and air command. Any suggestions? Currently on stock rooted pg1, and if i coukd change the theme of my slide down tray, i woukd be satisfied, but the lack of theme options are killing me. Thanks for any info in advance!
If you only want to use "themes" option (which means that you prefer to be on "Stockish based" ROM), then I would suggest you 2 ways:
1. You can flash Dr. Ketan's Galaxy S7 Ported ROM (I have created a thread for it here). It has all the new features along with the Note capability of S-Pen.
It would require you to first downgrade to OK1 boot-loader & modem.
2. If you don't want to downgrade the boot-loader & modem, then you can try Galaxy Note 7 Ported ROM (I have created a thread for it too). However, if you are on Sprint network, It might not work for you as it is meant for users of unlocked N910P variant on GSM network.
Select as per your choice...
Else wait for some time. @carlosggb will soon be releasing a new version of his ROM that might have theme support baked in.

I havnt looked at dr ketans rom, but will. Tried Carlosggbs rom last night, but borked it somewhere along the way. Ill look at thr first today, and will try to flash one of them tonight. When i odin back, i need to do the stock tar and bootloader, or does the bootloader get changed along with the stock tar? Thanks...

Full stock tar includes the bootloader and baseband.
The bootloader and baseband thread has its own purpose. Depends on what you're doing. Personally, I try to avoid those ROMs that require a different bootloader for data but may use the bootloader to revert back to an older TWRP backup. Not so much lately though.
I've been happy with Marshmallow and Wanam unofficial Xposed. PG1 has been the best on battery and fixed a Wi-Fi Calling issue for me.
But if tx_dbs_tx figures out that Note7 port with MM bootloader and kernel on latest update, I'll be all over that!
