Hey guys, I just swapped phones to the GT-N7005. I have been going through the forums since morning today and I cant seem to find a definite answer to which new i717 ROMs (if any) are compatible with that phone. I saw that the rooting method is basically the same as the i717. I tried an individual search in some of the most popular i717 around to check their compatibility with the N7005, no luck.
Help would be greatly appreciated at this point, thanks!
I used a few N7005 roms on my i717, so they are compatible.
Hello rangercaptain, thanks for your reply. Would that be possible the other way around? (i717 roms on n7005)
If so, is there a possibility to brick the phone and render the 4G unusable? I read in a few threads that flashing an i717 rom will mess with the modem of the phone since those 2 handhelds are a bit different.
I have been flashing devices since winmo 5 but I cant seem to figure this thing out.
I am a bit (actually a lot) confused, any clarification would be of great help!
(I am starting to regret that trade haha)

I was about to get the SGS2 LTE and plan to flash it soon after getting it.. however I noticed all roms are currently made for the original 4g model.
I am not an expert but I know what I am doing for the most part (being an HD2 owner for 2 years). there are two issues I see... sorry, in advance, for the lingo i use
1) the LTE has 4 soft buttons in the front (like the infuse).. whereas the original has a hard button in the front. which means "Base rom" would be different, no?
2) I don't this is a big problem but ill ask any ways... All current roms are made for 4G so will that mean that the phone will only work on 4g, assuming the button problem is resolved?
If there is another thread that will answer this please let me know and ill remove this thread. I just could find anything. I clicked search thread, but only threads regarding random discussion about the lte version pop up.
Lol the LTE model hasn't been released yet... Sooooo yeah.

Rogers Samsung Galaxy S 2 lte
The Snapdragon processor will mean a delay on any custom ROM cooking until it is released. I pre ordered but feel confident it will get a lot of the ROM' s and kernels from G S 2 HSPA+ i9000.
What is the device name for the LTE? ~model. Number

I only ask because I was about to pre-order the phone as it will be coming out soon in canada for the rogers network and i need my custom roms
Different hardware so it wouldn't work unless you looking to make a nice paperweight.
thanks for the info ... even though it made me cry a bit

Here you go, http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1399 That's the thread for the AT&T Skyrocket but the Rogers version is identical.
thanks verry much appreciated !!!!!
Hi. I'm a new Galaxy S user. But I have a banged up EVO that I loved and hated. But that's veering off topic.
What I need help with is finding a root solution for mine, and my wife's phones. I've been searching Google for leads ever since I got this thing. But haven't found out whether the old guides (sometimes for a different model ) will work for me.
Anyone able to uncover anything useful?
hey everyone. ive looked everywhere and can find nothing related to porting roms over to the gs3. is their a certain phone i cant port rom to it from? or is it just at&t gs3 to say sprint gs3 thats available? im asking cause i was able to port from multiple devices on the galaxy s 2 skyrocket, thought it would be the same on the gs3! :silly: guess its not that easy! lol any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! :fingers-crossed:
i have been using the droid x2 for about two years. it has a locked bootloader, and very limited abilities as far as flashing roms goes. kernels will be a new thing to me. i have noticed that in most rom install instructions, there are no specifications on what version to be on. lol not something i am used to.
could someone point me in the right direction for some reading material on the subject? this phone specifically? i understand a fair amount about being rooted and performing various things within recovery and android in general. i just want to make sure that before i go messing around with my s3, i know exactly what im doing. thanks in advance.
also, i have read a decent amount already, and it seems like this phone is fairly easy to brick,? also not something i am used to. the droid x2 with its locked bootloader was next to impossible to brick.
cant wait to join the ranks.! thanks again.
read as many threads in General as you can

Good choice, mate!
Which S3 is it? I see you're in the USofA. There are several variants of S3 in the world. American/Canadian S3's are the Snapdragon variant, not the International variety, which is what this forum is for. If it is not the GT-I9300, anything you flash from here will definitely brick your phone.

We can only guide you further once this question is answered. Good luck!

thank you sir. ! i guess i would be getting the non international version. :highfive:
international version has many developers than the other variants. once you start flashing custom roms or kernels or mods, there is no guarantee that your phone will not brick. flashing without damage to the phone depends on how you do that. goodluck.

please let me know if i'm wrong and CLICK thanks if i help

Yeah Make sure you're in the right forum for your phone. Follow that chart for your carrier.
Also if you happen to be getting T-Mobile,there is a new variant that has the LTE radio T999L which is a hardware difference and not a simple software upgrade. So if you did happen to get T-Mobile, hopefully you have the LTE variant.

This site is huge! A wealth of information. You peoples have put a lot of time and effort into this site! I read and read but I get a little confused.
I just rooted my phone today, but I am having a hard time finding a custom rom, or any rom as a matter of fact that will work with my
rogers sgh-i9747m is the AT&T one the same or Bell. I am sure that there has been a thousand threads like this and I am sorry to have asked it
again. I am currently running 4.1.2 jellybean and would like to upgrade.
Thanks in advance. I will be here for awhile reading
So I found a jb 4.3 rom, still unsure if it will work.... the title says at&t, rogers, bell, ect... but there is no instruction for rogers i747m again, at&t the same? Seems like this phone is hard to update...
no input...
