Hi, I have a SPH-L710 that's flashed to pageplus. I heard somewhere that flashing an aosp rom would break the pageplus flash, but that touchwiz roms are okay. I wanted to ask and see if anyone knows if it'll actually break the flash or not.
Bump

Make a nandroid, flash and see, if it doesn't work restore your nandriod
Does a nandroid backup the files from the flash?
Going to take a leap of faith and just flash it. Ill post back how it goes
The nandroid should back all that up
Yes it works. You can't flash a phone to pageplus on a aosp ROM, but afterwards you can use one

I want to make sure I have a few issues as possible, but I also want a less time consuming process.
I'm currently on darkside evo 3 v8, bi I'm ready to make the jump to jb since there is a stable base now.
I would've searched, but searching on the mobile app sucks.

Just wipe and flash. No point in unrooting and then rerooting again

I suggest you go back to stock firmware and then try the code. Just make a nandroid and backup your pictures and stuff.
Some say it being rooted will make a code note work. Never tried myself

Thanks however Is this a fact because I would like to avoid flashing back to stock if possible. I guess it would be the safest thing to do but definitely would prefer not to.

The code will not work unless you are on a stock TW rom

Just make a backup of your current setup and go to a stock build. It's really easy. I always leave a backup of the stock rom on my phone in case I ever have some weird issue

Ok so I'm hoping you guys can help me out with this, but I decided to root my T999 S3 tonight and after installing the custom rom, I'm left with no signal, no IMEI, no nothing, I've tried searching and every thread for some reason has links to other threads but I click on those links and they dont work Anyway I rooted using Odin and installed the latest version of Paranoid Android, any help is greatly appreciated guys!
Alright, by the grace of God, I somehow managed to fix my problem and get data back! Back when I was installing the rom I first installed it and then thought, I should make a backup, although I should have made the backup before installing anything, but I was too excited and it was already too late, but after the backup I decided to reinstall the rom and after booting up ive had problems. I reinstalled to he rom but still no network. Anyway I decided to go back and restore to that backup and BAM! I got data and everything! well I just thought I'd update the thread with what happened and my fix.
Flash the room again, if you get the same problem again, reboot your phone. It's apparently an issue with 4.3 roms.

Yup, that's just assuming though. You never actually told us what exactly you were flashing. For the future, info like that is extremely helpful.
In my T999L thread, linked in sig, after root instructions you will find how to backup nv data. I suggest you do this before anything else.

I am still on android version 4.1.2, with a non stock modem running cwm recovery and clean rom 4.8.
My question is do I need to mess with my modem before flashing clean rom 5.0?
Do I have to worry about my Android version if I wish to flash pac man rom thats 4.3?
Sorry for being a newb!

You don't have to mess with your modem when you flash any rom.
Thanks! So if I flash clean rom 5.0 ill keep the modem I flashed? Some roms contain modems?

As Ranger stated....your rom will not be touched unless you choose to change it..
Cleanrom does not contain a modem.bin.....g
Ive been having problems with my modem which is why ive changed it. Its mainly when im connected to wifi but not always, it says I also have 4g but I cannot make/receive calls or texts.
So simplest way to change it would be to select a rom that has a built in modem?
Thanks again
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
4G is the data side of the connection. The sms and voice goes through the GPRS connection. They are not related. It sounds like a location problem or antenna problem.
Just changing the modem is easy - download and flash.
Does your sim work correctly in another phone?
Ive tried variois modems to no avail. I cannot test my sim bc I don't have another phone to test it with.
Ive decided to unroot and reset counter and return to stock so I can bring it to an at&t store. I did part of the process last night but I think I did it backwards.

If you can offer insight please follow the link. As you will read I think thats what I have to do just looking for a "yes" if I am correct.
Thanks

I can't offer a link. . . when you do these things to your phone you void your warranty.
I'm sure I will get flamed for being old fashioned or called a douchebag, but everyone is warned about this.
Hey. I got the phone to work on virgin mobile with 3G data. But I'm rooted running stock 4.1.2 and custom recovery. Here are my problems.
1. Battery life sucks!
2. I'm scared of losing my flash do to the 4.3 rom list.
3. I have the lG2 bandbase.
I guess I'm being a noob here. But can I flash a 4.3 rom and not lose my flash. I spent 18 hours flashing it. Dont wanna go thru this again. I had the htc evo lte flashed before and ran 20+ different roms but the more I look into flashing roms to my flashed s3 it scares me.
Thanks for any help or what should I do
