Hey all,
I'm headed to Korea this week and I was going to reflash my ROM to allow for GSM data. So I'm looking at the Venasaur (Charmander if it gets released in time) or MIUI. I'd still like to use it on CDMA until I leave, but easily switch it to GSM while in Korea for data usage.
What's the easiest/best of the two to use?
I'm currently on Scott's ICS Dev Edition as I prefer the stock ICS feel. I could put up with a theme for a couple weeks while I'm there though.
Otherwise, I'm using my old Captivate while I'm there as I know that'll work, but the GPS is practically unusable.
Thanks!
Super
Pretty sure you can run GSM on your current rom. Settings>Tweaks>Misc>Phone Info. The antennae selection is on that screen.
You can get gsm on any rom, its sending sms and a couple of other issues that only miui or any sense 4 rom work it out using the gsm fix patch.
I'd say use miui, both cdma and gsm is working out of the box with cdma sms sendung being the only issue.

Thanks.
Data's the big concern. I don't plan on using voice too much, if at all on this trip. I mainly want data for Internet, GPS and translation.
Have people been able to use data without trouble on other ROMs besides those two?

Yeah data is a go but you're probably have to manually set up your APN.

That part I usually expect while I'm abroad. Vodafone in Prague had me up in running with the APN info in under 5 minutes when I was there last.

I would just use vennasour. We know it works and you never know in an emergency what type of service you might need whether it be voice, texts, or data.

I'm not trying to hijack this thread, but I was wondering if Korea uses the same kind of cellular networks as China? I might be going to China. Would be great to keep the rezound and swap sim cards.

Thought the latest ruu from androidpolice (4.03.605.2?) had easy to access global capabilities, but not officially released yet i guess.

That RUU came from the last official update, so it SHOULD work fine. But when you usewords like "perfectly" then all bets are off..
Nils BCS ROM based on 3.6 is supposed to be global. There are probably others tho.

None, now. But for future reference does 3G and SMS/mms work for t mobile?

Look in the GSM threads, they will tell you.
Flash any sense 4 rom then look up the gsm patch from the GSM thread in the Q&A section, its linked on the first post.
Or you can.just flash the MIUI rom in the dev section, its gsm based and active out of the box.

Or you could check the MIUI thread in the dev section. I think MIUI works out of the box for GSM carriers, except for some data bands.

If you flash MIUI or the SMS fix on a Sense 4 rom, you can get SMS and MMS working on a GSM carrier, but none of the GSM carriers in the united states will get 3G on the Rezound. Including T-Mobile

Just wondering if anyone knows whether we can use the International HTC One roms for our AT&T HTC One....I've noticed they have a lot more active development on their forums compared to ours and a much wider selection of roms too.
I assume it would be the same considering they both have the same internals, including the processor, etc. but I just wanted to make sure if anyone knows / has tried it before I take the chance and brick my phone.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help, greatly appreciate it!

I normally use cleanrom. How does it trickdroid compare to cleanrom? Which one do you prefer?
I actually prefer trickrom with the mods zip. It is much more customizable.

So it seems all international ROMs have some issues in regards to the AT&T setup. With Trickdroid, Android revolution, Renovate etc. you can select AT&T during Aroma, but you are left with issues. My main main issues is not able to use the native hotspot function. How do you guys work around this? Do you use other alternatives for the hotspot or do you just install the international setup?
I'm running this on my AT&T One, no issues, hotspot works.

I'm curious as to what happened in my situation. I live in a thriving LTE location where anywhere I go I get full LTE strength. When I first got the device, as stated, I had full LTE signal everywhere I went. After a few days I flashed TrickDroid (and have flashed every update henceforth) and just completely lost my LTE connectivity. I absolutely love TrickDroid, but the best signal I get now is HDSPA+ and I've been searching far and wide to figure out why I have this problem. Other AT&T users that have flashed TrickDroid report no effect on LTE capabilities.

It relies on the sense framework. So no... Of you tell us what specifically you like about the sense framework then we can probably find you an equal or greater aosp one

I have flashed the developer edition ruu to skip the T-Mobile tethering restrictions. Is there a way I can add wifi calling and still receive OTA updates or can wifi calling be added? I would use the T-Mobile rom if there was an easy way to get tethering working.

Wifi calling does not work on any developer edition ROM.
I read there is a zip to add WiFi calling to any sense Rom even the international but I can't find it.

There is no way to add it to 4.2.2 roms until a tmobile 4.2.2 rom is released. The only reason the international 4.1.2 roms had it was because they were able to extract the necessary parts of the rom and apply it to theirs, but those don't work on 4.2.2.

It should be under settings, select more under wireless and networks, and it's at the very bottom.
The developer edition does not have 4.2.2 I have 4.1.2. Is there a flashable zip to add it to the developer edition or does it only work with the international rom? Search isn't working for this because the keywords are too short and common.

You cannot just "install an .apk or .zip" it just doesn't work on AOSP.
So many features of this phone rely on Sense I can't understand why anyone buys the Play edition. I love AOSP as much as anyone, but it seriously hampers the experience of the One.
Yes, ROMZ and such, but pure stock is good by me.

What are you talking about? The developer edition is sense 5 and runs the same software minus the WiFi calling. I have the tmobile one but used the developer edition ruu. It's the same software. The developer edition should receive updates faster and tethering works.

Ok. That's something I know and didn't ask about. I thought you were referring to the developer edition. Great thing about this phone is that it can be converted to any of the models. The s4 is unable to do this.
I would use stock tmobile if I could get tethering working.

I haven't seen a flashable zip so Idk about it, but I like to use trickdroid 5.4, it is an international rom that has the option to flash tmobile WiFi calling. Sucks though because I don't think it's available through their website anymore. I have the zip if you're interested. I'm not sure that was the latest version before they switched to 4.2.2 though.

There is no T-Mobile wifi calling options for any Rom 4.2 and above, due to T-Mobile not releasing an official 4.2 update. I hope 4.3 come sooner rather than later, then it can be ported to all custom roms.
I have said this so many times. The developer edition is 4.1 just like the tmobile Rom. Is there any way to install it? Where are the files needed.
