This is my third Android phone and the first one that its a Canadian one. I used to have GS AT&T and just followed guides here because everyone had AT&T and no problems there. Now that i got Wind Mobile i dont know where to start. I did unlock the bootloader so thats one thing done right. Now all the ROMs i see in Dev section are based on T-Mobile version. Will i be able to flash them?

yes you need to flash the kernel using easy kernel flasher tool. each rom has its own kernel

Whatever ROM you flashed go back to the original thread and look for the kernel.
The ROM i am using recommends CWMFauxKernelv007 but that did not help or maybe i am doing it wrong? I just copied boot file form CWMFauxKernelv007 and flshed it with Easy Kernel Flasher. Did it 2 times and still no Data.
Flashed stock ROM back and 4G is back. Looks like APNs are gone. Is that something i must do every time since i am using T-Mobile ROMs?
Is this rom working in turkey
I just picked up a i717 and I'm trying to root via this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740367. I first tried to flash CWM with odin and then I tried a root file with odin then TWRP with odin but after all of them I still cannot get into recovery (it's still stock recovery). Any help would be appreciated.
Read through THIS THREAD.
I had issues when trying to root my Bell i717 as well. All the links to everything you need should be in there...just read...and read again.
in case you miss it or read too fast..
there is a point where you pull the battery so you dont have your recovery overwritten during boot..
once i was in cwm recovery i flashed a custom rom that did not have that "feature"

ahh I c thanks. Any suggestions for which rom is best?
It all depends what you are looking for.
I want something I can record calls with, and something not bloated.. so I'm still searching for just the right Rom. I used to use wanam on the sgs2 and he spoiled me for all other developers.
written in your mud with my stick
Just got my note. Previously had the gnex. I have always used aokp. I plan to install it on this phone once i can get root lol.

I have the Rogers note and running ICS BlackStar X as my daily driver without any issues. Been hearing good things about the Novena rom but haven't tried it out since I'm happy with my current setup.
okay so I read through some of the threads and I still don't know how to fix my issue. I rooted my phone using Odin v 1.85 and used siyah 3.4.2. I did it successfully and everything was good. I then gave the phone to my cousin and he said he performed a factory reset to get rid of everything on the phone ( contacts ,etc). Now when I turn on the phone it shows the samsung galaxy display with the triangle and then the screen goes black and just blinks. It still goes back into download mode I just dont know what to do to fix the problem. I know I'm a noob but please HELP!!!
Development section. You'll find the stickies that show how to flash stock packages with Odin. Go back to stock to fix your issue. You should then be able to load a new kernel and flash a custom rom.
Oh, and never let that cousin touch the phone again.

You will need to root first. If you did not flash the stock plus root package already, flash that, and then install a custom kernel which has ClockworkMod Recovery. Then you can flash any firmware.
There is a good guide linked in my signature.

Thanks. I Used "Odin3 One-click Downloader I-777 UCKH7 Stock + Root No Bootloaders" to go back to stock.
I'm going to install Mobile Odin lite, I already found the flash kernel for the I-777. After installing both of these I should be good to flash the ROM of my choice by just putting the rom on the sd card right?

Flash a kernel with ClockworkMod Recovery, then boot into recovery and flash the firmware. Mobile Odin can't handle the CWM flashable zip format.
There is a Siyah kernel for gingerbread that would give you CWM so you could then flash a custom rom. It would be in the development section. Just make sure you grab the version for gingerbread and not ics

I assume you mean nandroid backup from ClockworkMod Recovery? No. It's mainly a space issue, where you want to store them, because they take up quite a bit of space, especially if you have several.

The general answer you will get around here is try them all. You can see what I like by looking in my signature.
I like both Shostock3 and the collective's rom. I don't think there is a bad rom on here.

I have flashed paranoidandroid 3.15 on my galaxy s3 a couple weeks ago, aside the occasional screen that win't turn on I haven't had any problem, but I set my mind on flashing a new kernel in order to be able to change thez governor. I tried to flash air kernel on, I did exactly what I was told: Boot into recovery, clear cache/delvik, installed kernel from sd card, and rebooted. But after the phone being rebooted, I still had the stock kernel.
My question is, why did this happen, and how do I fix it?
All help is appreciated

wow, you're lucky the updater-script saved your phone. Flashing wrong firmware will kill it
Glenbun. Only mismatched, corrupted, or missing boot loaders can kill a phone.
yeah-yeah, but we should scare the noobs away from flashing the wrong firmware that potentially includes a bootloader

Well, I don't really know either of them, I don't mind stock, but I want to change things, sometimes it just isn't up for the task, or uses up battery when I would rather it didn't, without even knowing what they do, and looking around, I found the perseus kernel, I would like some opinions on the kernel, I would be very grateful if you told me if it fits me, if it's compatible with ParanoidAndroid, and finally if you have a better suggestion for a kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691401
read the first post of the thread to find out if it's compatible with your ROM.
and try it to see if it suits you
If I'm running TWRP can I still download kernels that say they are meant for CWM?
yes
Okay so here's the low down. I recently rooted my sprint note 3 via CF auto root method. Shortly after I experienced random reboots. I found out through system tuner app that only one core was online. So I ticked "Force all cores online on boot complete", which seemed to fix the problem. Now, whenever I play games I set cpu governor to performance and OC to like 2.7something.. But halfway through my gamei realize the cpu gets set back down to a lower frequency. Also experiencing lag in games (which IMHO should not be there.). Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be causing this problem?Any help is greatly appreciated.

I would try going back to stock, that's usually what I start with.
Sent from my SM-N900P using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
How would I go about that. I'm new to rooting so I apologize. But I have one backup from when I was freshly stock but rooted. Or do I need to do a full unroot/ factory reset? If so how?
To go back to stock rom easiest way would be via odin. U will need
1.odin software.
2.usb driver
3.stock rom files (modem, pda, csc files)
Do say if you need more detailed instructions.
I would appreciate it. I have Odin and the USB drivers already.
Ok so u just need stock files to flash..
. And the problem is?
Is that mj4.tar? I need a step by step. Odin tar then what?

Still got a boot loop. Wiped cache and dalvik like 3 times. Wiped everything except internal. Flashed rom and kernel. Also on boot loop it says
kernel is not Seandroid enforcing.
and set warranty bit: kernel. And every once in a while I get a very frightening orange bar flash on screen then fade out.
