or is there any stock ROM that has the toggle for 3/4G option?** kindly reply
Hi Folks,
purchased a SGS2 while on a trip to india. I'm on Tmobile in the US and got myself a 4G sim only to realize that the phone only allows me to be on GSM.
the guy at the store asked me to root and flash it for 4G speeds.
1. is it possible? and is there roms available?
2. should I just wait it out till US SGS2 comes out next month and install one of them on the phone??
kindly let me know..
i love my phone, unfortunately its not worth paying for 4G if i cant use it!!
thanks for your help in advance..
Ive been recommended to use Cynogen Roms ( not that i know any difference).
any help would be appreciated in advance!
my mother just bought a rooted at&t galaxy note i717 from a friend and it is carrier unlocked. i have experience with flashing/rooting but i just wanted to ask the community before i do anything wrong... can i flash an at&t custom rom and a t-mobile radio?? are they interchangeable?? anyone have any good rom/radio combinations that work well?
it seems like this thread has a decent radio for the moment but the download links are down:

thanks in advance..
I recommend using the flappjaxxx UCLF6 build 4.
And the T-Mobile radio ..
This device is very new , and development is just starting . Some users are reporting call quality issues, but most are running well on that combination ...g
If I get the gs3 from metropcs will I be able to install roms from here onto the phone? I see there's roms and stuff for sprint and other carriers but nothing really about metro so any info about what I can do with the metro version of the phone would be helpful because I might buy it.
This forum is for I9300 only so unless that's the model you buy the answer is no .###

Hey guys. I couldn't get AT&T to unlock my s3 so I downgraded to android 4.1.1 to do the free unlocking method. It worked, but my phone has AT&T apps in it, and when updating it says crap like updating from AT&T server or w/e.
When using ODIN, was I supposed to install the AT&T or the T-Mobile version of the 4.1.1 android?
I figured since it's an at&t phone I have to reinstall the at&t so it doesnt mess up the drivers or anything (I totally made up that conclusion myself).
Also, I don't get 4g LTE now and only get E internet. Do I have to do some settings so the phone cooperates with T-Mobile?
As always, thank you very much for the helping hands.

You're probably going to need to setup the apns for Tmobiles network to work for your phone fully.
It automatically made one called tmobile but I dont know if I have to edit it.
Was I supposed to install android 4.1.1 for at&t or tmobile?

As far as i know you should be fine on the at&t rom, You're just going to need to edit those apns probably.

Well, how about this? I install the T-Mobile rom. Shouldn't that have the proper apns?
Now another question comes to mind. Since this is originally an at&t phone, will installing the T-Mobile rom mess it up?
Anyone? Help plz
