I currently have an HTC Evo V from Virgin Mobile, but that's annoying to have to do S-OFF so I just said forget it.
I'm thinking of changing to the Galaxy S III 4G LTE.. my friend says the Galaxies are easy to root and get KitKat running. True or what?
Should I be looking at Omnirom, Cyanogenmod or other?
A question posted in the wrong forum .

FYI, here's my input.
If you're on the Evo 4g currently, that means you're on Sprint. If you're asking specifically about the Galaxy SII for Sprint, you're asking the wrong group of people.
The Galaxy SII for Sprint is the SPH-D710. That forum is here.
THIS forum is for the GT-I9100, which is the international version of the Galaxy SII. Mostly sold outside of the US, but it DOES work on AT&T fully with mobile data speeds up to HSPA+. It also works on T-Mobile USA, but T-Mobile will only provide mobile data speeds up to Edge. This phone (GT-I9100) will not work on Sprint at all.
Hi a friend of mine wants to trade his Galaxy S II for my Evo Shift. I'm pretty sure it's worth the trade but before I do I wanna know what's possible on it first.
What all carrier(s) can the Galaxy be flashed to?
What's the best performing/fastest carrier available?
And is the flashing process easy?
Thanks in advance

What country? And what model of Galaxy S II does he have? What carrier did he get it from, if any?
There are over a dozen different models of Galaxy S II, and they are all different. Some are GSM, some are CDMA. Some have LTE, some don't. So what carrier the phone will function on will depend on what model it is.
EDIT: You say you have an Evo 4G Shift, which makes me think you are on Sprint, in the US. Is he also on Sprint? If he is, then the Galaxy S II he has is not the same as the one this forum is for.
THIS forum is for the GT-I9100, which is a GSM phone... which means it works on AT&T and T-Mobile (but only with Edge on T-Mobile) in the US.
The one from Sprint (a CDMA network) is the SPH-D710, also known as the Galaxy S II Epic 4g Touch. (Its forum is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281) If this is true, then I've heard you can flash the Epic 4g Touch to other CDMA carriers (like Cricket, Verizon, US Cellular, etc)... but I don't know the details. If he indeed has the Epic 4g Touch, then you would be better off asking in the forum for that device.
Ok I was not aware of that. But yes it is a sprint version which would make it CDMA. I didnt realize there was a difference between carriers. But thank you anyway for the help!
I know this is an S2 forum, but can't find an S3 one just yet. I want to get the unlocked international version of the S3 before it hits the US. Will the Intl version be able to get LTE speeds on AT&T? The main reason I would upgrade to the S3 from my I9100 is to get the LTE.
s3 forum here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1563
And no you won't get lte because the international one doesn't support lte.
Hello everyone, I'm about to start rooting my s 3.
Previously, I owned a HTC evo 3d and in forums it had two sections, namely GSM and CDMA.
But I fail to see sections in S3 thread. Could someone please explain why?
Does it mean that any ROM designed for S3 will work for both GSM and CDMA?
Because the i9300 is GSM
Hey guys, i got the HTC One today ^^ and i'm not sure if its the same as the AT&T version. I had the One XL that same identical to the AT&T version but it said in the forum name too, and here is nothing. So will the mods and roms work the same on my rogers htc one? i dont wanna screw up this beauty in my hand yet
Yes also same as international. All roms are interchangeable.
cool, nice to know that. I am on Rogers HTC One & I was wondering which one to select, when I was trying to flash the Android Revolution 7.1. There was 3 options popping up, At&t, International or T-mobile. The Rogers was in the same group as AT&T in AR7.0, but not anymore in 7.1
thanks!!!:good:
