To my understanding, 4.1.2 allows home screen rotation and minor performance enhancing (i may be wrong) but if you flash a rom and it puts you on 4.1.1 its not a big deal as there are mods you can flash that will enable that option and it's actually built in to some roms. There's tw (touchwiz) roms and there's aosp roms, I suggest you do your research about the difference between the two before flashing either and of course make a backup before flashing anything in case something goes wrong. I also suggest no matter what rom you flash read the OP and at least the first and last 10 pages of that thread, that will give you a good idea as to what issues users have ran into and most likely the fix. Im no expert by any means and I do more reading than posting because just about any question i have has been asked and answered already. You can't go wrong with any tw rom and they all have different mods/tweaks...nothing wrong with trying them all...and the developers are incredible and more than willing to help you out (users are too) as long as you did your part in trying to find the answer your looking for before posting in they're threads. I can't say much for aosp because I stick with tw but I'm sure the devs/users there would help out as well. I can't stress enough about doing your research before flashing anything and always make a backup first. You had a successful root so your off to a good start, good luck man :thumbup:

T999, T999L, T999N or T999V DEVICE!!!!!
ONLY FLASH EACH MODEM TO THE DEVICE IT BELONGS TO!!!!​
CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED!!!!​
DISCLAIMER:
Flashing radios on your phone should not be done if you do not understand what the modem/radio is! Yes, it is a simple flash, BUT, if you do mess it up somehow, it can at best prevent you from obtaining a signal, and at worst possibly brick your device!!! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE INDICATED MODEL DEVICE, DO NOT FLASH!!!!! If you have a different device or are with a different carrier (such as Sprint, AT&T, etc) T-Mobile radios are NOT likely to work. It has been mentioned by just a few users that you can in fact safely flash these to other US Variants without bricking your phone, but it probably will have no connection.
IF YOURS IS AN INTERNATIONAL MODEL GALAXY S3 (I9300/I9305) YOU MAY BRICK IT IF YOU FLASH ANY OF THESE!!!
I have tested each T999 modem on my own device with no issues, however, you flash at your own risk! The others should be perfectly safe for their respective models. I have never been told of any problems with them in the past!
Individual Releases
All modems are flashable from within TWRP or CWM Recovery

T999V Modems
These modems are ONLY compatible with the T999V!
Note about these Canadian Variants: All three carriers (Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron) phones have an identical Build and Baseband. Because of this I would say the modems are likely all the same, and so the Wind modem should work on the other two carriers and vice versa. I have no way to verify this so I will err on the side of caution and continue to offer all three. If you do use one carriers modem on any other carrier, I make no guarantees that it will work. (But please let me know of any success or failure if you do give it a shot).

Team Sonic - Modem Flasher For All {Out-Of-Date}
clark44 has ported over his Modem Flasher from the Sprint Galaxy S3 variant. This is really an awesome tool and can make flashing and testing these radios super easy! You only have one file to keep track of rather than the many individual ones below! It uses the aroma installer which allows you to pick which modem you want to install. This is great for testing to find your "best" modem! Huge thanks to clark for putting in the time and effort to port it over for us! I have considered taking over and updating it, but have not decided for sure yet as we would probably need 3 or 4 versions due to the other variants and sheer number of modems available.
Flash the tool from TWRP or CWM Recovery.

Maps & Modems​
T-Mobile GS3 Modem Map​
A Public Map to track which modems work best in a given area!​
No longer do you have to ask, "Whats the best modem in my area?"
Just click the link below the title and enter your location in the Google search box to see if anyone close by has entered their results!
Don't see any posted information close by? Then please run some tests of your own and help everyone out by entering your results.
I encourage everyone to run their own tests and to please share your findings. Even if there are already 3 or 4 entries for a location, please take some time to add to the map. The more tests/results posted in an area, the more reliable the map becomes!
I suggest that everyone use the SpeedTest.net app by Ookla from the Google Play Store. If you use another method, please mention it in the map information you post.
*I got this idea from meleii of the AT&T forums. Thanks to him for the idea and allowing me to copy it for use here! If you see him, Thank Him!
*Thanks to vnguyen972 for getting the map set up for us so quickly. Thank him too!
INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure you are logged into your Google account
Click the link below the title, or click HERE to open the map.
Enter your City, State and Zip in the search box. (I recommend also entering a nearby intersection to produce more accurate results)
Click on the Map Marker
Click Save to Map
Select TMobile GS3 Modem in the drop down box and click Save
Now click on your location in the panel on the left.
Please use your City, State and Zip for the title.
Enter your information into the description, then Save!
Should look something like this:

Ping: 146-733
8-13 / 1-3 (Down / Up)
If you care to go a step further, the following would also be helpful:
Any related build.prop tweaks (More information to come later)
Any other info you feel is relavent
Of course, everything is optional. You don't HAVE to use the above format, but I think if everyone does, it will make it much easier to read.
Remember, the more data we collect, the more reliable it becomes! You are, of course, more than welcome to enter test results for more than one area. (Home, Work, Wherever you want!)
Sometimes when you search for just your City, State and ZipCode, the map marker can still be a number of miles away from where you are. If you also enter a nearby intersection you can get the Marker closer to you. I don't recommend having it point at your house!
NOTE:
If you want to help or encourage people to find and take part in this project, Please link them to this page/post rather than posting links directly to the map all over the place. This should help keep all related questions and comments here, and help prevent a bunch of extra threads which will needlessly clutter up the forums!
Thanks in advance to all who choose to participate!!!

Data Speeds! build.prop Tweaks and More!
Tips and Tweaks​
In this post you will find tweaks, edits and anything else which may have an affect on your data speed.
This being the Baseband/Modem/Radio thread, I only plan to include those tips which are related to your data connection.
In the future I may start a new thread with lots more information on everything else!​
build.prop tweaks​
In this section you will find different entries which can be changed or added/removed to your build.prop, located at /system/build.prop. I will do my best to define and describe what each entry does and the available values you have to choose from.
First a little general info about the build.prop file.
During boot, the system reads the build.prop from top to bottom. This means that if you have duplicate entries, the last one read will be the one applied. In this case you may feel free to delete any duplicates to clean it up a little.
You must leave a blank line at the very end of the file. Otherwise it will not be read.
When experimenting with different values, it can be handy to comment out the original and leave it there as a backup and reference. To comment out an entry, simply put # at the beginning of the line. Anything on that line after the # will not be read by the system. This is a good way to leave a quick note for yourself if needed.
If you see an entry here, but it is not in your build.prop, you can just add it in. If it is already in your file, just edit the value.
IMPORTANT!!! Make a copy of your original before you edit anything!!! Stop Here and put a copy of your build.prop on your EXTERNAL sdcard! ​
There are certain lines in this file which, if incorrectly edited, can cause your system to not boot. Don't Panic! Got your Towel?? Good! All you have to do is copy your backed up original back to /system/
How? Easy! Just reboot into recovery (I am assuming that if you are editing your build.prop you also have TWRP or CWM installed). Once in recovery mount your system partition if it is not already done. Now, using the built-in file browser, rename your edited build.prop and copy the original back to /system/
Reboot! (I know for a fact that the file browser is built into TWRP. I am assuming it is the same with CWM. If it is not, let me know and I will post another easy solution for you.)
==================================================================================================================
OK, I think we have covered the important pre-edit stuff!
I will start with just a few to get this going, and I will try to continue building on it until I run out of information.
I will be adding more to the list soon! (I will also probably play with the format a bit to try making all of this easier to read)
And Now......The build.prop tweaks!
Default
ro.ril.hsxpa=1
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
Usually recommended
ro.ril.hsxpa=3
ro.ril.gprsclass=12
The radio in our phone has the following capabilities:
HSDPA Category 24 (42.2 Mbps)
HSUPA Category 8 (11Mbps)
GPRS Class 12 (?) (4 Downlink Timeslots, 4 Uplink Timeslots, with 5 Timeslots simultaneously active) (It may be capable of a higher class, but I am not sure at this time)
64QAM (wave modulation)
T-Mobile's networks support the following:
HSPA+42 supports HSDPA Cat 24, and HSUPA Cat 6
HSPA+21 supports HSDPA Cat 14, and HSUPA Cat 6
HSPA+ (will verify later) (believe D=10, U=5)
HSPA (will verify later) (believe D=8, U=5)
The ro.ril.xxxx properties are used to define the target network.
So if you are in an area that has HSPA+42, you should try these values:
ro.ril.hsxpa=3
ro.ril.hsdpa=24
ro.ril.hsupa=6
For areas with HSPA+21, try these:
ro.ril.hsxpa=3
ro.ril.hsdpa=14
ro.ril.hsupa=6
Check the HSPA+42 Fact Sheet to see if your area has been upgraded yet!
ro.ril.hsxpa defines the target networks available technology. (I have not found anywhere to verify for sure, so this is from others definitions and my own reading)
0 = 3gpp Release UMTS r99
1 = HSDPA
2 = HSDPA/HSUPA
3 = DC-HSPA (HSPA+)
4 = ?? (Maybe LTE related, or HSPA+42?, testing needed)
5 = ?? (May not even be defined yet, but likely related to LTE)
ro.ril.gprsclass defines the GPRS MultiSlot Class to be used on the target network.
10 = Slower Uplink, ?Uses Less Battery?
12 = Faster Uplink, ?Uses More Battery?
If we can verify that my theory for these is correct, I will post the HSPA+, and HSPA values as well. But you should be able to figure those out on your own.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALL AVAILABLE VALUES
ro.ril.hsxpa=0-3
(I have seen 4 and 5 used, but cannot confirm they are really defined values, likely LTE related if they are)
ro.ril.gprsclass=1-12 and 30-34
(I have seen and used ones in between in the past, but they are no longer listed)
CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
ro.ril.hsupa=1-9
(10-12 may be defined at this point, but I could not verify this)
CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
ro.ril.hsdpa=1-16 and 19-36
CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
ro.ril.enable.dtm=0,1
DTM = Dual Transfer Mode -- EDGE ONLY --This defines whether or not the target network supports simultaneous transfer of both voice and data. Likely not needed at all.
ro.ril.hep=0,1
(??? I have seen this used in many places, but have never been able to verify its use) Likely not needed.
ro.ril.enable.a51=0,1 Weak, hackable encryption used to provide privacy for voice communications. Not needed.
ro.ril.enable.a53=0,1 Weak, hackable encryption used to provide privacy for voice communications. Not needed.
***These both are weak and have been easily hacked. I would imagine it would serve only to slow things down a little. Of course, there is the argument that some is better than none! I leave it up to you to decide for yourselves.​
As far as I can tell, the ONLY real tweaks you need to make for now are HSXPA, HSDPA, HSUPA, GPRSCLASS. I am aware there are others that can be added as well, but I have not done the research or testing yet and would like to nail these down first! Any help/feedback is appreciated!

Speedtest.net Alternatives
I personally do not find the SpeedTest.net app to be very reliable or indicative of real world speeds. You can choose different servers and get wildly different results. However, as with most benchmarks, so long as you are being consistent with your use, the data can still prove useful. This is why I still recommend using only that app for posting your results to the Map.
Your results can be heavily impacted by traffic, server choice, distance, routing, etc. I have had terrible speedtest results, only to turn around and download a large file super quick! So remember, no matter what you use, these tests will not give you a very accurate reading into what you can expect with real-world use.
Below you will find listed some alternative websites where you can test the speed of your connection. I am listing them here so that you can possibly find a better testing alternative to use for your own results. If you use any of these or know of others, please share your experience and maybe we can find something better and more consistent for everyone to use!

Hey guys, I saw something pretty cool on the AT&T forums.
In their modem thread by meleii he has set up a public map in google maps where their users can enter their location and enter information about which is the best performing modem in their area.
I have seen a lot of people asking what modem is best where they are, and this may be a good way to figure all of that out. Provided enough of you would be willing to perform honest testing and enter your results on the map that is.
Ive never used public maps, but am willing to learn and implement if this is something you guys would like to see.
(As if I dont already know the answer to that!) Anyway, if you have any feedback or pointers or anything else to add please feel free to do so!

I live in Bucks county- still testing the newest ones out. I will report back in a few days. The modem flasher is awesome as it allows you to quickly change without too much of a hassle. SO far the latest leak (UVLI5) is the best for me followed by UVLG1. I am still running some tests on the latest leak though.

Nice idea.
I created a map here... now if we all could join and contribute
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF&msa=0&msid=206376864302453711738.0004c96ebcfb8b7b4df9b
Instruction copied from the ATT thread:
Please click the above URL and follow these steps to add yourself to the map:
Use the search box to locate your city, state, and country.
On the marker that appears, you’ll see a link that says*’Save to My*Maps‘*within the bubble.
Click the link and select the*TMobile S3 Modem.
Put your name as the title for the marker, and within the bubble provide whatever info you’d like
Thanks man! Awesome!
Ill add this to OP later this evening when im at my 'puter!
Now lets hope enough people use it to make a difference!
Haven't had time to keep up and thoroughly test them all yet, but I will definitely be adding to the map soon!
Thanks again for getting that done! :thumbup::thumbup:

It's best to use your computer to add your location on the map. Google needs to figure a way to make the Site a little more phone friendly.

I still cannot figure out how to add my location to google maps. I read the post above me and I still do not understand where the "map link" is. I was able to install the modem flasher and I got the latest modem flashed without any problems. Im just confused about the google maps part of it. Any help would be sweet..thanks

How can you tell which kernel you are currently running?

A forum search turned up nothing, so I'm asking here:
On most Android phones, you usually go to Settings->About Phone and look under the "Kernel Version" section to see the name and version of the kernel you are running.
With my Galaxy Nexus, I don't see kernel names. Instead, I see something like:
Code:
3.0.31-g6fb96c9

No matter which kernel I flash, it always seems like the same type of info but no names or version numbers.
I was okay with that as long as I remembered what I flashed last. However, I recently reverted to stock but the kernel looks like it stayed the same. Is there anyway to check if I'm back on stock kernel or still running the last kernel flashed (franco, in my case)?
I'm running leankernel 4.3.0 it says the version

Most (if not all) kernels have a name similar to stock. But there is usually something amongst the numbers and letters which point to what kernel your running.
For instance my phone running trinity.
I know its trinity because it says dirtymorfic, morfic being the xda name of the trinity kernel developer. I only use stock kernel and trinity so can't comment on the others, but it will always look similar but also always have something pointing to the kernel your using. Hope this helps

1. Kernel and rom are developed much earlier, you weren't cheated.

Best Lean kernel version for note 3
davwman said:
My setup is something that needs a book to describe and how to get where I am. I don't use power save, I don't greenify, no uc, I do over clock and have a total of 190 apps which includes all essential system apps and my personal use apps. Think titanium backup and removing close to 175 apps that I never use. The only thing that is touchwiz on my phone is the dialer and calendar app as well as the camera.

Which kernel is the best out of the following 3. Lk 3.8, 3.8.1 or 3.12?
No problems with this Kernel. Anyone know when FauxSound will be included again?
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
Does this kernel support fast charge with trickster mod
Relatively new to ROMs etc. Started after the Samsung Note 3 4.4.4 upgrade borked my GPS. I play Ingress so GPS is critical. I found Dialler input string that made things better - temporarily only. It seemed to accumulate something that sent it downhill again after a couple weeks.
Unfortunately flashing the CM11 M8 didn't help and it totally borked my Dialler. I could answer calls but it would take a couple of minutes to get screen control back after the call, and forget about putting it into speaker mode - black screen. Meanwhile you had to hope the other person would hang up for you...
I installed a CM recovery and C-ROM and it kind of fixed the GPS problems - only kind of. And similarly for the phone calls. I know - who uses a phone to do phone calls right? But when you do, you want it to actually bloody work.
Unfortunately C-ROM seem to have bailed, and there's been zero contact for months.
So I'm looking at flashing Dirty Unicorns.
One thing I'm wondering before I start is, given the core system issues I've been having, should I install a different kernel? From what I've been able to read, it's the kernel that does the actual system interface, and the ROM is just the person-friendly front end. So perhaps the phone and GPS problems are kernel-related?
And if so, what one out of the files (there are a lot of them under the link) and how do I do that? Where does it fit into the flashing ROM sequence? I'm finding it pretty hard to find clear guidance on this.
Thanks for your help.

Hi I would like to know if the kernel lean run on lollipop beta ?
Deep Sleep with Bluetooth
Hello,
I was running CM11 M12 snapshot on my Note3 for a while and decided to flash lean kernel lk_hltecm-v3.16 . Right after the flash my phone wont go into Deep Sleep anymore if Bluetooth is enabled.
While it's enabled "msm_serial_hs_dma wakelock" is constantly running. When I disabled Bluetooth or flash back to the stock kernel everything is fine.
I even did a full wipe and flash of lk and the only app installed is Better Battery Stats and I still have the same issue.
Any ideas? I would love to use this kernel but it looks like this would kill my battery when my phone is not in use with Bluetooth enabled.
Thanks.

Testing
Tested beta 4 earlier and loved it minus the sdcard issue. Everything worked on my n900t. Even my VPN and rdp apps that let me into my work servers worked as well as wifi calling...which is a must. Also all around fluidity was great. About to test beta 7. Looking forward to end results. Keep up the great work. I'll drop a reply and a log if I notice anything drastic that stands out but it looks like the finish line is close.
hello, does this kernel work with the exynos version of the note 3(sm-n900)? I'm using lollipop
Should I wipe dalvik cache before or after flashing the kernel or should I wipe cache and dalvik both before and after?
Has anyone else experienced an issue with moving the apps to sd following the update to 6.1 kernel? I flashed back to 6.0 and that function works ....maybe a bug of some sort?

I have a GROM V-Line system installed and it has been giving me hell these last 11 months and I am unable to get a refund from the buyer. It is android powered and uses a custom rom etc. I was wondering if anyone out there has any knowledge of these units and can guide me through a way to maybe update the system to remove custom ROMs so I can use it as a normal android type device.
The current set up is running on Android 5.1.1

Not sure if there is anything I could, I am ready for throwing this out of my motor now.

I was initially pissed too but after several resets my system is pretty stable.
One item that remains an issue is crashing when I have any SD card installed...As long as no SD card installed then system runs pretty good.
Several issues via launch controller were fixed with a $1.99 replacement launcher named AGAMA by altercars.ru. https://altercars.ru/#about
