DONT WANT A BRICK? Check here

As of right now, the roms for your S3 are not meant to be used on other S3 variants. Bricks might happens or a soft one might happen. Before flashing a Rom make sure you are in the right development section an you read the entire op, twice. Until other devs or experienced users find a way to make them cross compatible, please refrain from using other carriers S3 roms.
Also wind mobile an Tmobile are interchangeable, just don't flash the modems.
ONLY FLASH THE ROMS IN THIS FORUM!

I second this, guys PLEASE don't risk it. It is not worth it. Right now I think most devs are working on their own ROMs, but we should have a patch soon to allow cross-compatibility.

think some peeps are confused by whats before tmo development. (AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III) just my opinion but good idea on thread.

Mr Highway:
Could you start another thread for Windmobile Android Development?
In the past all Windmobile phones are just T-mobile phone rebadge.
In this case, it does not in terms of kernels....(and may be baseband)

I am working on this so that all roms will work on all carriers

AMEN!! Some fool I know ALREADY called me with a bricked gs3! I'm gonna sit back and let the pros do their thing, and that's DEFINITELY the safest bet!

thanks for the reminder and jsut to make sure ....
i have rogers sgh-i747
i want to be in this AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III - xda-developers thread for everything correct ?
and not in the Samsung Galaxy S III I9300 thread ?

I keep seeing posts about ROMs that can work on these variants of galaxy S3s. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the ROMs supposed to be specific to GSM or CDMA? When I flashed windows based roms on my touch pro II, that was one of the things to look out for. Is it possible to create a ROM for all carriers?

Yes and no.
With the use of aroma-installer, we could set it up to detect your phone type (well, not we....I don't know that much about it but I saw the thread discussing this) and aroma would be able to install the necessary files based on your phone.
As of now, for instance, mine works across all GSM carriers. clark44 is current working to get everything switched up so it also works for Sprint (mostly appears to be the apk files and XML files) that are specific to the phone. As of now, he has it booting and working fine except there is a large rush of FCs on initial bootup but then everything runs fine.

I wasn't even aware you could make a patch to allow cross-compatibility! XDA never fails to surprise

Just a thought, but maybe they could do it like the SlimROM on multiple devices. He has a common base ROM and another flashable for each device supported. It works out perfectly and multiple ROMs for multiple carriers.
I figure it will be easier than doing it for different devices since I read that all the US variants are essentially the same. Not sure but worth a look.

Will there ever be any SGH-T999V development?
Does anyone think that someone with a SGH-T999V Wind Mobile variant will ever be able to root their phone so they can overclock the cpu, etc?

Why not? I am using a custom rom and overclocked to 1890 at the moment.
Just use the windows way to root. I knbow it works
I have not tried the toolkit.
If you are going to flash a custom rom just make sure it does not contain the boot, modem and amss file in the rom that you are flashing.

What about using i9300 themes and mods? Will this cause constant FCs or other issues?

I am curious of this too. I have the wind mobile galaxy s 3 and I was hoping to put cyanogenmod on it. Is this possible? Let me know, any help would be appreciated.

I'm more curious as to what exactly the differences are between the 2 variants (i.e. t999 vs t999v). What could possibly make them so different from each other that ROMs from tmobile wouldn't work on wind GS3?

What if you accidentally tried to flash i9300 rom and your phone is not turning on.
With the forums changed I accidentally flashed the wrong version rom on my phone. :crying:

Thanks for the link, unfortunately the phone will not go into download mode for odin, it won't even turn on.
After doing some research it looks like I have to fix it through jtag.
I think I could do it, but you need some expensive jtag box that connects to the computer(It's called the Riff Box), but it would be cheaper if I just sent my phone into here it costs $60. Not ideal, but not a complete disaster either. Unless there is some other way to JTAG I am out of options.

Using the "Jelly Beans" ROM on Rogers Galaxy S3

Hey everyone,
I'm new to the whole flashing phones thing (I've recently had the guts to try it out) and I was wondering if it was possible to flash the "Jelly Beans 10" ROM originally from the Verizon Galaxy S3 thread on my Rogers Galaxy S3. This is the first ROM I have considered trying out and all the features look pretty cool, but looking around the forums it seems I can only flash roms that are specific to my phone(?) so I was wondering if it indeed is compatible or not. The link to the original ROM thread is below:
http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973982
Thanks for all your help and I hope to hear from some of you guys soon
Cheers

Most likely, NO...
The Verizon model has different wireless module and it would not work. I wouldn't risk it.

Oh okay thanks a lot Do you happen to know of any ROMs that are similiar to the Jelly Beans ROM that are compatable with a Rogers device?

The roms you want to install are the i747 one these are the at&t rom that work with your phone, be sure to check your model number to be sure. yours will probably be i747m the "m" doesn't really matter that I s just for the canadian variants, there are a lot of roms out there for your device, just make sure you read the reviews and follow flashing inductions properly. Thumbs up if this helped

Port unofficial stock 4.2 rom

Is there any skilled developers that can port the pre-release 4.2 rom released by Samsung for the S3 I9300 so it can be flashed on to my Telus I747M S3.

You don't want to flash a international version of the firmware to your canadian S3.. That will brick it.
Also, if you searched a little, you'd know that we have 4.2.2 ROMs all over here. Please take a couple hours and go read the stickies.

Ok and when I bought my phone I did try flashing the other i9300 rom, but it only soft bricked the phone. I easily unbricked it by flashing the stock rom. It's just that I noticed that some developers ported some roms from sprint to AT&T. What I really wanted was multi-window. But thanks anyways.

Should've been clearer with your question. Either way, don't flash a I9300 ROM
As for multi-window, some ROMs offer that feature but you'll have to search for them as I don't use it myself. Sorry I can't be of more help.
Good luck!

Its easier to go to and from AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile because of the similar hardware. I'd you need a port its pretty simple.
Unfortunately the international ROM has different hardware (quad core CPU, 1gb ram) which makes it very difficult to port over to our ROMs. Most devs don't even bother.

Oh I see now, thanks for the info.

I am trying to understand that porting process as well. Could you not flash a bootloader and a kernel to make the i9300 rom launch on the i747? Sorry I was just wanting a touchwiz rom that was later than 4.1.1 for the i747. Sorry I am sure this is a ridiculous question but I just want to understand the portion of this that makes it so difficult. Thank you.

They've such different hardware that it would just be a pita to make it compatible.

Ditto Note 4 (DN4) Rom for sgh-i317

I flahed this rom http://electron-team.com/dn4.html on my AT&T Galaxy Note 2 and i loved it! smooth and fast. but i cant find a radio/modem thats compattible with it. i practically did everything trying to make it work: extracting modems from other stock firmwares, flashing UCUCNE5 modem, restoring efs back ups...
i dnt knw if its the 4.4.4 version, but i guess its for the GT-N7100 only.
so an patiently waiting and hoping for the devs to make this rom available for us i317 users
if there any any thoughts about the DN4 rom for sgh-i317, post them here :good:

Ok man. Sounds great.
I'm about to think that all Galaxy Note are the same expecting Radio firmware. Gonna give it a try on the n7105.
:laugh:

Ok I tried it on n7105:
No GSM / 3g / 4g (wifi works)
No stylus recognition.
Runs smooth by the way.

Hi Prezzi,
So I have the AT&T Note II SGH-i317 version and I am thinking of updating the ROM to RN4 by Electron-Team. However, I would like to hear from you if it's working fine or not since the E-Team are stating that this ROM update is for the n7100 version only.
You mentioned that you can't find a radio/modem that is compatible with SGH-i317, what effects does that have on the phone? Does this mean you cannot access 3G/4G network now?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Here is a quote from sawdoctor who is maintaining (along with bajanman) the DN3 ROM for the E-Team...
sawdoctor said:
I'll try and explain it to you so you understand a bit better. Porting n7100 to the s3 is very easy as the framework is almost identical (I could do it in 10 mins). Porting n2 lte variants to s3lte or verizon is very easy framework is almost identical. Samsung in they're infinite wisdom decided to completely change the lte variants framework after 4.1. AFAIK only one person has managed to port between lte and none lte variants and that was the s3 and s3lte. To get dn4 work in on our device requires completely rewriting the framework which is why no one wants to do it. The eteam are very busy with work atm so it's been left to me and bajanman to rewrite the framework. We have done 2 of the 5 folders needed and will try to do the rest. It might happen it might never happen. Editing smali is not easy especially when you don't understand it lol. The eteam are actual developers not chefs like most so called devs. Anyone can make a rom with a kitchen you don't even need linux anymore.

Im using DN3 v5 on my sgh-i317m canadian variant note 2 everything is great it run fast and smooth I like this rom alot. I have flashed a few different roms and this one is my favorite by far. I tried to flash DN4 it was successful other then it didnt read/recognize my sim card I asked me to install a sim I tried to go in to the settings and see if I could change my apn for my provider telus/koodo but it wouldnt let me access the apn due to the no sim did I do something wrong during flash? Or do I have to download something to get it to work with my provider?

The DN4 rom only works with the n7100 version only.

yes the ROM works fine! smooth and runs well.
but since the modem is not meant for i317, there will be no 3g/4g network, so u wont be able to make calls or anything pertaining to mobile network. still waiting to see if someone will port it to the LTE varients

note2 to note4
hi guys i dont remember where i get this flashable, but it has the 4.4.4 towchwiz with t0lte rid and radio, so, i think it could help porting dn4.... i will send you a link to download by PM im sorry i cant post outside links yet.
im so sorry about my english...

The place
Just wanted to be sure this is the place to be with the i317 variant? I know the original file was made for 7100, but hopefully it can be ported to the i317 model.
Evethough I don't have the 7100 I flashed it, just to see whats on it. Some exciting stuff! It really felt like a Note 4! Great work guys! I will check in hoping to one day find the i317 is ready to go. For now I will just use another great ROM DN3 5.2.

Im not understanding everyones trouble with running DN4 on the sgh-317 because i have now been running it on mine with full network, features, and stylus support. Its actually really smooth and enjoyable to use. There is a whole thread on it in the n7105 forum. I do know people where having trouble flashing all the updates and having them take but there is a custom CWM recovery that fixed all of that. Hope this helps give hope.

Ita been running very smooth, great battery life, and no reboots or network issues either.
I just followed this post in the N7105 section http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2/development-n7105/addon-dn4-n7105-v1-0-31-12-t2988848 which also works with the sgh-317. At first i had trouble flashing everything and getting it to stick but someone posted in the thread linking to a custom CWM recovery that made it flash and boot properly.
Hope that helps you. If you have trouble i can make a step by step of what i did exactly.

Flashed from my I-317 DN5 V2. Confirmed it's working. The FM radio has been removed though I think it's because of the bug reported in original post for 7100. Couple minor things don't work such as dual clock digital in the widgets but i doesn't bother me. Overall, it's smooth and stable as the DN5V2 sofar.
