Are US and International Note II ROMs compatible? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The US variants wont have the multitasking bar. Can we root then flash the cooked international ROMs which provide this instead?

I've been meaning to ask this as well.

just picked up my Note 2 for T-Mobile and would like to know as well. i'm assuming yes since internally the US variants and international are the same except for the modem. i'm itchin to flash a rom on this...

i read post one thread they try flash G7100 rom over G7105 and got stuck in boot loop. You can search in general thread and find out

i specifically want to know about using a TMOB variant on AT&T

Ditto on the OP question...waiting in front of TMO US tore now and hoping to get ARHD 3.0 on this bad boy ASAP!
I sure do hope it would work...

I am sure some dev will cook something up, since all the phones have the exact same hardware (for the first time!), Can't wait...

SAME
:laugh:

I'm itching for root...and a port of paranoid.

Root is fine In my exp, but flashing international ROM gives you the wrong baseband and you loose cell services.

just don't flash the radio (modem). probably needs some RIL fixin' and what not. then i think these roms will work across most variants.

I believe it has something to do with isis. The rep told me that all SIMs are isis now.
To maintain security, I am guessing it has to be the TMO baseband.
I could be wrong.

that's easy. just flash the correct modem from the carrier. this is going to be fun.

Yeah, this should work just fine. Does anyone have the modem files?
I have a request into Samsung for a complete dump for recovery, but no word yet.
I flashed Omega 4.1 which had a modem in it. :/

you might be able to extract the radio out of one of those OTA updates. not sure if there is one or not.

SGH-T989 vs SGH-T989D

Hi, I might have a chance at getting a deal on a SGH-T989D from a former Telus customer. But almost all the roms here are described as being for the SGH-T989. Are these phones not the same where you can run the same roms? Definitely don't want to buy a phone that has no developer support even if the deal is good.
It can run the same rom.

If you are on TMO you should be able to flash a TMO radio without any issues as well ..... as long as the phone is UNLOCKED ...

I'm using the Telus version (T989D) and as far as I can tell, the only difference is the button combo to get into download mode. I've flashed a number of roms from this sub forum and they don't work any differently.

Mainly to differentiate from the i9100 SGSII variants.
Also, the T989D has no exterior Telus branding.

It's really hard to get the ICS ROMs to work sometimes. They seem to be pretty finicky. I've read some users have had to do a Superwipe, flash the ROM, then wipe the data and cache again and reflash.
I can confirm that Racing's, RaverX3X's and the Cleansed ICS are all capable of running on my T989D.
Are you sure these two are identicial in terms of hardware?

Yes of coarse, believe me I love Telus ROM better. well not just ROM, the exterior of T989D looks even much better as hideous T-mobile logo is nowhere to be found.
Since I am on T-mobile network, I just wanted to try T-mobile stock from the core. Reinstalling drivers now, before reflashing odin.

It keeps failing at the very end of flashing process. while doing this toward the end of the flashing process-> amss.bin

I gave up on Odin flashing my T989D with T-mobile stock.
I have tried both KID and VK but both fail at the same spot. It would fail at around at 98% mark.
I flashed Telus Stock now and then rooted it again. It's running flawless.
Too bad I can not try T-mobile wifi calling. I never use wifi calling on other capable phones anyways but I wanna have all the options available
Please let me know if any Telus owners out there who have successfully odin flashed T-mobile original stock unrooted on their S II X.
also one has Corning Gorilla Glass and the other doesnt I believe the telus one doesnt have it.

Hi, If you want to enable T-mobile wifi calling you can pull the kernel out from the tar.md5 by using 7-zip and/or WinRAR. You should see boot.bin and or boot.tar that will have the kernel modules KinetoGAN required for wifi calling. You should be able to fine a flash package in the T-mobile section that will enable the RIL switch. I would suggest this process:
Flash stock Telus
Flash CF root
Flash RIL package for T-mob
Flash the bin file you extracted from the T-mobile ROM package
Run the CF-unroot script.
Done!
PS: I stumbled across this whilst looking for info in the SGH-T989 for making a kernel for a non-developed Galaxy Tab 8.9 4G/LTE...I know a little about wifi calling so thought I would throw that in there for you goodluck

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.

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

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.

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.

Judging by the main website for them, currently the only SGS4 variant supported (officially) is the I9505, which is definitely not T-Mobile's version: http://www.android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/

Updating Radio/Modem

Hello guys, sorry if this is a noob question for you Sammy guys (I'm more used to Nexus devices), but I was wondering if it is possible to update the baseband version on this device? More specifically, I was wondering if I could update to an international radio/modem? If not, does anyone know where to find the latest radios for each device. I tried searching but only could come up with an older thread for the version I already have (MDL). On my Nexus One and HTC One S we could flash any baseband we wanted, international or carrier release. Thanks!

Do not flash any radio other than the ones made for your device. At best it won't boot. At worst it won't let you Odin back to the correct radio and it will never boot.

Spot on. Apparently, T-Mo is supposed to release their 4.3 update early to mid November (consult General Section for source). Then and only then would we be able to use a 4.3 TW ROM without cell network wonking out like a drunk. Hopefully T-Mobile could be at least 1/3rd useful this time and actually push out an update for once.. (you can feel my hatred towards carriers...... =.=).
EDIT: SOURCE THREAD, towards the last few pages starts the talk of the rumored T-Mo Nov. release.

There is no M919 Tmobile 4.3 dump.
That's the problem, the only dump and the flashable zipfile rom
available as of yet is for the international versions of the S4's.
Flashing an international version of the 4.3 rom into our M919
phones even if it worked properly we would be losing wifi calling
and most like the LTE feature plus who knows what else.
You are wrong there is a t mobile4.3 dump for very long posted in general section : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2478553

We CAN run the TW 4.3 ROMs and have full LTE as normal (except for Wi-Fi calling b/c that's a T-Mo specific feature), the only issue is that data randomly cuts in and out. I don't understand how I could run AOSP 4.3 with no issues but 4.3 TW gives problems...
The thing is, only us T-Mo users have data issues, not the international or any other carrier. So it MUST be the radio version that is the cause of the problems, which is why we must wait for T-Mo to finally release an update...
Has anyone dare to flash international MJ5, JM6 modem? I mean our bootloader is unlock right? If it don't work can we just flash back our old modem? Just a thought.

convert T-Mobile to International

I routinely used International Roms on my Tmob S5 no issues. Simply root then flash whatever. The Tmob variant used the Qualcomm processor so one had to just make sure they flashed the correct International version, which as far as Tmob goes, was the KLTE International model.

Never really a good idea here on XDA asking "What is the best ROM". It is so early in the game right now I would just watch the Forum posts here and on the XDA International site for ROMs as they come out from various developers.

Here is a link to the general section for the Samsung galaxy S6 which references the International site. Plus I have no clue at this time if they will be mixing and matching S6 vs S6 Edge Roms, just because the Edge obviously will have a few more capabilities. Again, this is way too early in the game to be even thinking about a 'best Rom"
Also interested to know if it can be converted to international so I can get international updates instead of waiting for Tmobile to push it out. Flashing roms is a no-brainer. Now that all S phones have the same hardware, I'm interested in straight conversion like HTC phone(s) are able to do.

if I understood correctly , I have G920T (from T-Mobile US), I'll be able to upload the firmware of an international G920F. Settings of LTE will change just as it has a model F ?
What about the wifi calling? You would lose this with the international rom wouldn't you? I had actually been thinking about getting the international (for the green that us disenfranchised Yanks don't get) and then putting tmo software on it.
Considering we have TWRP it should be a matter of time until we are running international roms. If I wasn't going to work I would be flashing it now

I'm wondering if I should attempt to flash an international rom. We do have twrp of course and if anything weird happens it is an odin fix away granted.
I guess I'll be intrepid and try it out. I sort of need to have an int'l rom because I also need to sim unlock the device

Try it out and let us know. Watch out what you flash I'm Odin and take a backup. I'm on way home and since I took a backup already I'm gonna try flashing the Int'l debloated rom after awhile.

Nevermind. It was for the S6. Not the edge. I know it won't flash on the edge 99% lmao
