will NON lte roms work on an LTE 8.9? - 8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i do NOT care if the LTE works, i just want a rom that works on wifi. the crdroid rom i have on my non-lte tablet won't boot on the LTE tablet.
any rom EDIT: 4.2 android or HIGHER please END EDIT that is somewhat stable would be fine, any suggestions?
SIDE NOTE: i got a response from the "re-formed" liquidsmooth" team, they say they must not have saved / backed up the jem roms. that was all they replied.
UPDATE. the Android 7.11 crdroid rom works great on my wife's LTE model. HAVE NOT TRIED A SIM CARD!!! But the ROM installed and does have all the LTE data options in settings. END UPDATE.

[MOD] Unlock ls980 on any aosp based rom for NON US GSM carriers

Hi all. Just want to share what i did and finally made it to make any aosp rom i have tried so far to recognize my sim card with great signal and data (can't test 4G not supported by my carrier). The only aosp based roms that anyone with ls980 can have gsm unlock without doing anything at all are omni and all omni based like dirty unicorns. These need the JB baseband though (i had no sound and auto rotation with cloudyfa's kk baseband).
In the past days tried many aosp with no luck. I was going to phone information (*#*#4636#*#*) and changing from there the preferred network to gsm only/gsm auto prl etc and rebooting but after the reboot not asking for sim pin code and when going to phone info again it was like i changed nothing. What finally worked is from same settings set the preferred network type to GSM auto PRL and then pressing the 3 dots at the top right corner>select radio band and setting USA BAND. Then rebooted and finally sim recognized asking for my pin code and all working great with auto apn settings already there for my carrier. Hope i help anyone being in the same situation. Confirmed working with Alegen Rom-temasek's Build - V7 (my current choice), mahdi and vanir all with kk baseband of course. Sorry for my English.:good:
Tried this on crDroid Marshmallow on my LS980 and it worked perfectly with T-Mobile US. Thanks so much!

What are other omni based roms?

Android 6.0 Marshmallow for jflte(Unofficial cm13)

After impatiently waiting for that day to arrive, here it is: Android 6.0 for our dear s4 is there thanks to our great dev @AntaresOne.
He brought us an unofficial cm13 for the unified s4 variants (jflte) which is stable enough to be used as a daily driver. All credits go to him.
Almost all the basic functions work.
FYI, it's a goodbye gift.
Download link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63729768&postcount=312
Please, used the gapps suggested by the dev. Otherwise, you may face bootloop.
Enjoy but remember to thank @AntaresOne for this awesome work!

I'm downloading it right now and going to give it a shot. Hopefully everything works out, including using streaming services like Netflix or Hulu Plus. Will report findings soon.
I have read that cm13 will support tmobile wifi calling will it work with the s4 builds? Is it implemented in this build?

It should work if the signature verification is skipped.
Also be sure that the downloaded file is correct; some of the mirrors do not yield the correct file andd have a different checksum.
The checksums should be:

Successfully flashed here. However internal and external mic don't work as well as auto time zones. Other than that, I haven't noticed an issue. I guess at first glance it also does not appear to be rooted.
Trying this on my Metro PCS S4 (jfltetmo) since it's not my daily driver and not connected to their network. So far it seems to be stable, but the battery usage is not good at the moment. The top of the list shows "Uncounted" using the battery the most. Not sure what that means. I am willing to help with testing this rom for this model jfltetmo, so if you want any info from this phone, let me know what and how to get it, and I will gladly share.
This thing did not work for me, leaving the phone stuck at the Galaxy S4 screen at boot. Restored using Odin and stock image, my device is the M919V.

Everything works fine but microphone. It does not work at all; call, skype, hangout, voice recorder, etc.

It's a known issues in all cm13 built. No fix for it yet.
Is this ROM dead? or will it be updated to work with microphone fix?

It cannot. Since ICS, T-Mobile's WiFi Calling has depended on TouchWiz to work. Sadly, for the S4, TouchWiz is stuck on 4.4.4 KitKat and likely won't be moving up to Lollipop. As of now, I keep a working KK TW Rom backup up as a Nandroid in case I need it but I've since resigned myself to moving on.
Need something to fix 6.0
I downloaded the Android 6.0 marshmallow for tmobile and the 6.0 gapps i flash them with TWRP recovery on my galaxy s4 I cannot create an APN because it says my device model is unknown and sims card is not inserted what do I need to do to fix this or is it just a CM bug.
Same^ any help
i used these micro gapps http://opengapps.org/

Any 4.4+ stable ROM for D2att?

I have a Galaxy S3 Sgh-I747 and every ROM if i install in my phone have a Snapchat issue or random boots
Please help!
What is the snapchat isdue?
I'm using an old cm11 4.4.4 build that has been rock solid, I was also getting random reboots on just about everything. I had to install an old chrome browser apk, and an older voxer. Some apps won't work with the kitkat roms, but I don't care, this rom rocks and hasn't had a single bug.

the front camera looks compressed or something
You can do nothing about it. It's a known problem with CM/Lineage on all phones degrading camera quality.
Which ROM would you recommend for daily use? That is not Slim6 because that is what I currently have and has several errors.

That's what i said in the first reply, most of these roms are based on lineage and they have the same camera problem which lineage degrade. If you want the camera quality back you have to go back to stock 4.4.2.

There is a ROM that worked perfectly, the camera was fine, it is very fluid and above it is super attractive to the eye and very customizable, that ROM is MiUi 7. But there is a problem, that when it comes to start it takes a lot to do it . And it is not that bootloop because the ROM if it starts, only if I turn off the phone for any reason to turn it takes 5 to 10 minutes.
Do you have any idea of this?

Yes miui was not based on CM. But i have no idea about the boot problem because i tried it once and i didn't have any problem with it.

For me the problem is the kernel because I installed another kernel and the problem was solved but when turning it on you could use the ROM but it had some graphic faults like that the screen was blinking, the icons were glitched, it worked fine even though it was difficult to use , but the ROM started well. Then I'm looking for AOSP kernels for android 4.4 to see which gives solution to the problem

I realize this is an earlier post, but thought I'd comment anyway! I'm not sure how many of us are out there, tinkering around with the 8+ year old Samsung Galaxy S3 i747 . While I am a newbie, I have enjoyed flashing Custom ROM's , from CyanogenMod, thru various versions of Lineage, and now CrDroid. The newest O/S that I flashed is CrDroid ( based on Android 8 ). Runs great. Stable. Long battery life.
I have always used ODIN to INSTALL a 'recovery' system such as TWRP ( which is a .Tar file )
After TWRP is installed ( using ODIN ) I unplug phone from my computer. Then boot into TWRP recovery ( holding down the three buttons ). I do a clean install (flash) of the newest O/S that I can find ( Android 4.4 is really old ). It is that .Zip file that I flash, then reboot the phone. Always works for me. Eventually I learned how to back up all my contacts, SMS, logs, photos, etc.
BTW I am totally free of Google; no Google Play Store, no Google Pay, no Google Framework, no Gapps, no Google spyware, no Google bloatware, no Google tracking etc.
I download all my apps as APK's which are readily available on the Net ( Google them . . . just kidding! ).
My older Samsung S3 i747 was a 'd2att' originally locked to Rogers, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Then switched over to MTS (Manitoba Telephone System). Now running on Bell Canada. My replacement is also a Samsung S3 i747, originally running T-Mobile in Arizona, now running on Bell Canada.
These are damn fine phones.

What ROM are you running on your S3 now? I flashed lineage 14.1 on to mine but it wont accept incoming calls. I really just need a ROM that will work for calls but I'm having trouble finding any to download, the links are either dead or all I can find is for the i9300 variant.

I am running CrDroid. Best ROM I've had yet. Ran LIneage 14.1 and it was good, but little problems such as: phone not ringing, camera problem.
I always go the extra mile & clean flash. Lately I've made the effort to back things up! Saves a lot of headache. Wish I would've learned that earlier.

Thanks but I don't see a ROM for the S3 i747 variant on CrDroid's site. Only one for the S3 Neo and I see references elsewhere to CrDroid on the i9300 which I think is the European model? But not seeing one for the d2att/d2lte version we have in Canada.
I did install Meeko on it last night which at least does accept incoming calls so that's an improvement over Lineage already.
Are you referring to the CrDroid website https://crdroid.net/ ?
There are versions for Android 8 (Oreo) & newer.
I'm pretty sure that Lineage 14.1 is Android 7 (Nougat)
Have a look at the XDA site of alexenferman : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/rom-crdroid-3-8-9-custom-rom-7-1-2-t4021787
See the part which reads:
Releases
Latest Version: V.3 2020-01-02 FINAL
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DW...T4ZNZieMwIUbAX
Then I downloaded the file: crDroidAndroid-7.1.2-20200102-d2att-v3.8.9.zip
While it says "d2att" I installed it on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Rogers version) anyway. Works great.
I also installed on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Tmobile version) T999. Also works great.
I did not install any Gapps

This is an unofficial build, on the CrDroid website, they only put the official ones, approved by them. To make official builds, you must constantly update it and have the latest version. I clearly don't have all the resources and knowledge. Anyone can compile a ROM for their device.
So if it says "Unofficial", it's not part of the Custom ROM website
And yes, you can use this build with the Canadian i747m/d2can

Best clean / stock ROMs? (Mid-2018 Edition)

I have an old T-Mo S4 on 4.something and would like to play with some custom ROMs. I see that there are several ROMs but am not sure which one to start on.
What's the cleanest, most compatible, stock-like ROM for the S4? Preferably Android 7.x or newer.
Additionally, is there a simple way of reverting back to an official T-Mobile ROM?
I went with lineage, used it for a couple of phones. It's currently in active development, root is optional so I think safetynet is not an issue. I think a couple of other ROMs are based on lineage, so I just stick with them.
As for reverting back I don't know. I had to download stock for an old phone and flash back, this time I tried backing up stock, but didn't back up stock recovery, didn't think of it and not sure if I can. I don't know if my backup of stock will work if I try to flash back. Still pretty new to all of this, or maybe not new so much as I'm not a developer and I'm trying to follow as best I can.

I flashed AlaskaLinuxUser's [ROM][7.1.1] SlimRoms N [jfltetmo] build on my bone-stock SGH-M919 a week ago. It's my daily driver, so I'm glad the 7.1.1 Slimroms ROM has proven to be lean and stable.
It carries the same SGH-M919 model number so IR blaster apps are available.
It is not rooted, so corporate sector apps don't have a cow over security.
It is easily rooted using the recover-flashable SuperSU zip, and easily unrooted inside the SuperSU app.
Portable Hotspot works well, although only in the 2.4GHz band.
Media players are absent (slim indeed), so I had to download AOSP Music+ etc.
Wi-Fi Calling does not work :crying: due to not having T-Mo's proprietary app.
TWRP can backup and restore the whole phone using an SD card. You'll need around 7GB free on the card.

Have you attempted to manually get Wi-Fi Calling working? There are plenty of stock devices - the Moto G6 for example - where Wi-Fi Calling works.

Sprint N910P not working with network - T-mobile, EU - need help

Hello,
I hv a problem with my n910p.
I installed dtuxrom on version 6.0.1 Mashmallow. Everything works ok but I can't use 3G / 3.5G internet. I know that LTE does not work in N4 Sprint e.g. in Europe, but the Internet does not work at all, even 3G. All I can do is call someone or answer calls.
I need help activating the 3G / 3.5G internet function on this phone.
Best Regards,
MN135K0
ust a possibility, but I know that with my n910p in the U.S and Dtux rom with 5DQ15 bootloader and Modem that all of the kernels in the Aroma installer had poor network connectivity. Afte lr a while, I decided to flash the N7 kernel from another updated custom rom and it fixed the network connection issues with my device. I shared this within a few other general posts but none of witch were specifically related to the title itself and It's definitely not something that will easily showup in a general search. At least with the n910p with 6.0MM (N910PVPU5DQ15) in the U.S. its been confirmed to have solved there data issues aswell.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-updated-1-14-2017-t3538051
Best of luck
Thank you for the reply. I installed the N7 rom and everything works fine with data network and rom works in EU.

Hi again! Is it possible to install twrp 3.3 or 3.2 on samsung n910p sprint? I can't find flash confirmation anywhere. I am asking this because I would like to flash rom with Android 9.0 and for this I need twrp 3.2 or higher. When installing the lineage os 16 it is written that rom works on n910p and if during installation error 7 error pops up it is the fault of the old twrp version, the error does not pop up from the twrp 3.2 version and higher. The question now is whether newer twrp for note 4 qualcomm can be flash on n910p?

I believe TWRP 3.3.1-0-trlte is the newest stable version for the Sprint n910p.
