Hi,
I live in the UK but I was wondering about all of the different stock roms for the one phone are all about. For example on O2 there are a lot of roms all running 4.0.4 but I cannot see the difference between them.
I also want to know what are BTU roms?
I am hoping someone will be able to explain to me what they are all about.... I apologise if this is a dumb question!
Thank you in advance
Steven Chorkley
There are a lot of roms for the s3 and all come with different features but most used to customise and make the phone faster and for better looking ui.i tend to flash new rom after i buy the phone because i have experience but its very easy with samsung phones just install one app flash the root file then choose a rom to flash (im using omega) if u dont want a new rom and just want a stock phone with more features you can try flashing kernels the same way, it will enable you to overclock or even underclock for battery life.you also get updates faster 4.1 isnt even out in the uk and some have 4.1.2
Hope i helped,hit thanks

Different ROMs have different CSC and some are carrier branded. BTU in particular is unbranded. Each carrier has its own ROM. Apart from these, they should all be the same.
Thanks again

Hey
Flashed this any everything works apart from my phone cant find any network nor data signal. Tried flashing different kernals and modems but nothing works. Some people have had the same problem but no luck either.
Does anyone have any idea's how to fix this?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Enter network settings manually is the normal first step .

Thanks will give it a shot

No voice NOR data signal? Sounds like the modems that came with the ROM you flashed aren't compatible with your network. Try the modem thread.
So if i found a t mobile modem for example then flashed that, it should work?

Yes. Provided you're meaning T-mobile Europe. (NOT T-mobile USA)

Just be sure you use I9100 modems. Don't use modems intended for any other models of phone...
hmm not having too much luck finding a t-mobile modem. Know where i could potentially find one ?

Shipped modem thread.
Doesn't seem to be anything that specifies which are used by T-Mobile of any particular country though. You could ask around and see if any T-Mobile users in your country can tell you what modems they are using in their phone.
I don't find a "hydroxygen mod v1" ROM when I search. Are you referring to "HydrOG3NMOD V1.2"? If so, it may be better for you to post in that thread asking if any other users of that ROM are experiencing the same issue. Maybe some additional steps are necessary.
But if you don't get help there, I'd suggest you reflash a stock ROM first (from Intratech's official stock firmware thread) and make sure you get voice/data signal. Then reflash whatever ROM you're looking at, but remove "modem.bin" from the package before flashing so you retain the modems that work.
Thanks alot man really helped and sorry my bad. Meant the one you posted the link too

Hi there.
The ROM doesn't flash modem, as this is user based preference.
I'm using Ki4 here. In France.
And here is HydrOxygen Btw.

Hi,
Does anyone know of an ICS ROM for the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100T model?
You can use any rom for the I9100. Makes no difference.
Just flash your i9100t modem back on ics works for me.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Hi, thanks for your reply.
I already installed an ICS ROM intended for the regular model, and it is very very buggy. The internet connection is very bad.
I did some research on the Web and what I understand it's a problem with the modem. The modem for the T model is different.
I'm in Israel on the Pelephone network.
Hi 7t
I wrote my comment just as you wrote yours, so I didn't see it.
From where can I download a modem for the T model?
Thanks.

wondering. thought that it would have, because of i9100T ,.. but apparently just orange UK (and france) have it. then you can install any i9100 you want.
I9100T doesnt mean nfc it is optimized for 850 mhz network.

As 7tOny4 says, the T thing is about the modem, nothing to do with NFC.
No NFC in Israel anyway.
Thanks anyway.
I have a GT-I9100T and have been using various ICS roms, including the CM9 nightlies, for the past month or so. At the moment, I'm running Resurrection Remix.
The modems included in the latest roms have all worked fine for me, so all I've had to do is re-add the appropriate APNs If for some reason it doesn't work with the included modem, just flash a modem file from your carrier or another local carrier that uses similar frequencies.
There's a collection of modem files from different carriers globally on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
With the official release of ICS today, I expect that we'll be seeing updates to all of the main one-off roms within the next few days, including updated kernels and modems.
I have a gs2 i9100T and running remix ICS 9.6. It is fast, smooth and stable.

Can someone please tell me what the difference is between gt-i9100 and the gt-i9100t?
Would a custom gt-i9100 rom still provide full gt-i9100t features?
Thank you
I9100t is optimized for 850mhz network you can flash any rom but you may have to flash your modem back on it afterwards but dont flash a i9100g rom on it.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Different SAR values , which means different radio output, which as 7tOny4 said means works better with 850mhz network.
I9100t's tend to get better connectivity/data speeds with modems specifically for the I9100 T (but not always), dependent on location & network.
Yes I9100 roms provide 'full features', as there are no I9100T specific roms given the slight difference as per the above. If you find you're getting good connectivity/data speeds with the modem you're using now across all locations you use the phone/all times of the day (using it at one location at one time of day is nowhere near a proper test), no need to change the modem even if it is an I9100 modem.
If you do ever have problems with connectivity or data, you need to keep trying modems till you find one that works. A Google search with XDA appended to your search terms will yield you plenty of posts on here that link to both I9100T/I9100 modems.
THE DIFFERENCE IS ALMOST NOTHING, EXCEPT THAT THE I9100T WAS MADE FOR SPECIAL COMPANIES, LIKE VODAFONE, IF YOU WANT TO FLASH IT YOU CAN USE ANY I9100 ROM EVEN STOCK I9100 ROM, THEN WHEN YOU TURN IT ON IT WILL READ I9100 ON THE BOOT LOGO, SO THERE WONT BE ANY DIFFERENCES AT ALL, BUT YOU MUST DO A FULL WIPE, AND BACK UP YOUR EFS FOLDER BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING, HERES THE GUIDE, I MADE IT MYSELF, PLEASE AS I HELPED YOU, HELP ME AND PRESS THE THANK BUTTON
He didn't ask about flashing, so go flog your 'guide' (i use the term loosely) somewhere else.
P.S - stop using all caps. Makes you look like an idiot.
Cool, thanks guys. I was thinking that would be all it was. Was asking cos I got a vodafone sum but bought a Telecom SGS2 as the gt-i9100t was $100 cheaper than the gt-i9100. Don't like the Telecom splash / boot screen

Do i need to flash anything else other than stock rom?
No not really so far as I know search on Google Odin stock flash tutorial.
If you don't trust it flashing with Odin then you can extract the firmware and make an update zip with dsxida kitchen and flash it with recovery.

so I heard about ROM FoxHound for SGS3 that the RAM doesnt get higher than 400mb when working with this Rom!
im using stock s3 and my ram goes up to 667MB which is lretty low because I got the international version of s3.
so what is this foxhound Rom? how can I install it? and is it better from stock? what are the advantages and disadvantages?
sorry for long post and many questions.
thanks

I guess you should try S5830DDKQ8.
Have tried almost 10-12 custom Rom on this Baseband and never showed problem plus wi-fi drivers of this ROM are considered the best by many ppl incl me.
