Please help

There is no Asian firmware for American models. The only ones are for the international version which are incompatible with our phone.

Is it possible if I flash CM10?
I am afraid that after I flash CM10, my phone will have no SIM service or brick.

CM10 will change your phone to an aosp style rom. I'm not sure of Asian support. Your phone will still be an i-747 and since it's an American phone you will have a hard time finding Asian support for it. And for a brick you just have to know what your doing.

CM10 won't give you an Asian firmware(not totally sure what you mean), if you want another language just change it in settings no flash required. Flashing cm10 might give more regional support then say the AT&T stock rom though. CM10 will not break your sim unlock, your thinking iphone. Android phone roms aren't tied to the baseband so you wont have any issues.

As long as your phone is unlocked, you'll be fine with flashing roms. I used aokp rom on my i747 in korea and it worked fine.
It seems like your apn isn't set yet. Google for the appropriate apn settings for that carrier.

Thank you for your idea. rightnow, my phone is rooted and already installed CWM.
and now, I dont know where should I start. should I flash CM10 first or modem first (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898)?

CM10 is little rough around the edges. Try CM9 - it is good and very stable. Or try my ROM - it's enriched CM9.
I'd first unlock the phone - get in touch with AT&T to help you with that, it will be free since you are in another country.

I live in India using the at&t gs3 running cm10...

How i can restore now the Stock Rom? I've tried to root my Phone but idk why it doenst work. I Cant boot my phone, i get always this screen.
you are in the wrong section. Did you try to flash something in our section? If so that explains it.
If you can get in download mode try to ODIN a stock file (MAKE SURE IT IS FOR YOUR PHONE NOT OURS)
If you can't get in download mode you need a USB jig (google it, ebay it)
Soory, and yeah i've tried that...^^
I can now to Download Mode and to Recovery, i can now boot and device runs, but i need a Stock Rom or something like, can you give me pls a link?

I have checked and you have the i9100 model. You should be able to find the stock ROM and any custom ROM solution in that part of XDA forums.

Replacement GNex loosing cell service with screen off

On Thursday, I dropped and broke my original phone. Luckily, I had a full CWM backup (CM9) created that morning. I pulled the entire /sdcard partition off the phone and onto a laptop.
When my replacement showed up yesterday from Asurion, I rooted it using the GNex tool, copied all the data back onto the new phone, then flashed the backup.'
Everything works great, almost seems a bit faster even. But now I am dropping calls and loosing service all the time. The cell radio seems to be turning off with the screen after a while, but will also seem to turn off randomly.
I just updated to the latest CM9 build attempting to fix the problem, but it didn't seem to help.

Are CM9 and IMM76I mutually exclusive?
Im on AOKP Milestone 5 based on IMM76I.. No issues at all.. Give it a try

I'm on verizon. My first 2 GNs dropped calls a lot (not like a screen off issue), but losing 4g like every 10 minutes. My 3rd nexus holds all signals steady, so you may try to ask for another replacement again.

Your flashing a radio file not a ROM, which is non dependent of the ROM you are running. You can find the official IMM76I radio file here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12866-vzwfastboot-radiosbootloadersrecoveries-updated-may-1-2012/ which is flashable using clockwork recovery.

Yeah I checked but this device is weird as you know and I wanted a bit of assistance not wise ass remarks. I'm new on this part of xda and with a flashed phone I know some roms don't work correctly. That's why I asked not to be lazy. Check my stats I do a lot of support for the one xl. And one thing I wouldn't do was post a link to a totally different device, someone with less common sense could brick with wrong info.

My bad, I read that as G2, I apologize. I was confused as to why this was posted here. If you want a ROM that works correctly go with TouchWiz. AOSP ROMs are pretty buggy on this device, especially KitKat.
What do I need to do to go from stock rooted this is a confusing device and I also still have stock recovery

Get Mobile Odin, flash this kernel (.tar format)-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2244781 in Mobile Odin and that will give you a custom recovery
Would u recommend wiping dalvik and cache? Or is it safe to just reboot into the stock rom?

If all you flash it the kernel, its safe to reboot without wiping anything. However, I would follow any and all directions given by the OP of any ROM or kernel you flash to the letter. Otherwise, you're asking for issues. This is a confusing device, and there are so many little nuances that need to be done just right to avoid problems.
If you take nothing else away from this post, remember this website www.rwilco12.com, it will save your device if you run into issues or just need anything for the device. Every ROM, kernel and modem leaked and/or released for this device by Samsung is on there and will return you to stock in a heartbeat.:good:

Answer is obvious. All you need to do is read on this forum. Seriously, these questions are coming up weekly because people don't read.
Plus, if it was, don't you think it would've been done??

hey there, clever idea trying to use legit roms from tmobile to get around the bootloader that's set only to take official roms! however the bootloader was locked by att and is using their own signature (security key), so unfortunately t-mobile roms won't work. neither will official Samsung roms, only roms by att themselves will work. the most you can wiggle here is to flash the att official rom with another tool using your computer, but it's the same att rom with nothing changed in it.
as for unlocking the bootloader, sadly that hasn't happened either. there IS a semi root available on 4.4.4 of this phone if you're willing go to back a few versions. the reason I say "semi" is because once you turn your phone off and on again it will go away. so you'll have to re-root it after each reboot.
hope this helps, I know the information overload on here can be overwhelming to sort through, especially if you don't live on the forums *cough ^^^ *
You can't downgrade if you are on firmware OC4 or above. *cough*

First t-mobile roms aren't compatible, secondly they wouldn't flash because of the locked bootloader and 3rd t-mobile bootloader isn't compatible with at&t note 4.
