Hi, I am opening this sub-forum for N7005 variant as its a closer relative to I717 than the international N7000 note.
So far, as read and tried from other earlier posts, I managed to root, flash CWM, flash TWRP and flashing of various roms from this I717 Forum without any issue, yet. No changing of modems. So far, no issue with basebands so 4g still works great.
Roms I have tried, the original Paranoid Android and the Cookies & Cream. Both are great roms.
Hope that the Mod dun close me down on here.
Cheers!

Are you trying to say that you had use the same firmware to root your lte note using i717?
yup..
Followed this method.. TWRP same as I717.

Original thread that I read was from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1876490&page=2
This is a good thread. I have been trying to find the N7005 all over google and got very a little and mostly, 'irrelevant' results. I believe the note LTE might be a different from the N7000.
Would also like to know if you already have successfully installed the I717 custom ROM on your N7005?
Yes.
I am starting to believe ours have the exact same hardware as I717. It just carry a different model no because of the different baseband.
I have tried ( and successfully flashed ) the original Panaroid Android, the Cookies & Cream, Unofficial CM10 and Liquid Jelly. and also a kernel ( cant remember the name..) All worked well apart from issues with the standard bugs from the current developement of Jellybean. Just be careful not to touch the modem.
There is one little problem though.. I cant really find a convienent way for ours to flash back to stock or remove root if I ever need to send back for official servicing. The only solutions on the web suggest flashing US Carriers specific roms , which does not apply for us.
Well actually, there is a way to go back to official stock.. 2 day ago there was a minor update from samsung. so I flashed and it remove the root. And my firmware now read, Official Samsung.
I haven tried flashing again as I felt that though all the developers are working very very hard for JB and I do really appreciate the efforts , imo its not that stable yet.
Its pretty safe, I tried and they worked. BUT, PLS DO A BACKUP OF YOUR STOCK ROM!! Need any more info, I can share.
Disclamer: I will not be responsible for any kind of damage, bricked or blow ups...
And, U have to understand that if things goes wrong during flashing or any weird errors appears later, the developers are not oblige/not able to help as the I717 stuffs just " happen to work " on our device.

I'm currently still stuck with my SGS, looking at N7005 when my contract expires. You said don't touch the modem, why is that the case? From my understanding you can just flash the baseband back on my SGS, is there an issue if you flash another modem on the N7005? Region issue?
The SGS have great international and local support. Any resources are readily available.
I717 is pretty much confined to the US. Their modems are specific to their baseband's bandwidth. There is no such modem in our region that u can safely flash that is guaranteed to work with our carrier. I know HK they have a forum for N7005 but its all in chinese. I am not too good in that. And, I dun see any real needs to flash the modem as well.
BTW, for local users that have a habit of flashing roms, I wouldnt recommend this model at all. The device is great but zero local support. I have even checked with Official Samsung Singapore and they dun even know if N7005 is getting JB but Original Note N7000 will be and the Note 2 will launch with JB. Go for more sensible options my brother...
I bought this purely because it was cheaper that time. And I traded in my nexus so this phone was basically free.. Then later I realise I will have the flashing "issues"..

I did look at the original note and S3, but what I wanted was larger display and I have a budget so I might not consider Note 2. I wanted to get LTE Note since it supports LTE and it would be a waste if we didn't make use of that.
I did see on starhub website that it states it is upgradeable to JB, but their website is always providing inaccurate information. Thanks for the recommendation, might reconsider. :good:

Can I have the link, please?
The 4g would come in handy for sure. I actually turned that off coz its eating my battery like theres no tmr..
Regards the HK forum, I dun have the link anymore.. ask Google my friend..
I realised the information on our local telco (Starhub) said processor is 1.4 Ghz, but the SHG-I717 is a 1.5 Ghz Scorpion.
Also the firmware stated on Samsung website says it should be ICS instead of GB, where Starhub says its GB and upgradable to JB?
So which is correct??
Look elsewhere for information. Believe the opposite of starhub. The specs they listed belongs to the international note N7000.
Hi dude, can u please show how u did to sucessfully to flash this stock roms to pandroid rom.. thank you in advance

Hey to all. This is my first post here, even though I have been using the wonderful advice of XDAers for quite some time now. My questions is this. I am looking to flash a custom kernel to my phone, but have not been able to figure out if I would require a specific kernel for my phone (techinally a T999V, but flashed with TMO rom, so a T999) or can I use any kernel from any Glaxy S3 variant? I know with ROMs you must ensure the correct one is used or you end up with a paper weight. Would the same be true for kernels as well? If I did happen to have a bad flash, would ODIN/NANdroid save my bacon?
Mmmmm...Bacon...
Thanks in advance guys and gals! Looking forward to being a contributing memer to this site, and helping out wherever I can!

Just like when flashing ROMs it is even more important to make sure the kernel your flashing is specifically meant for your device. That being said I would recommend taking a look at this guide that's lists available Touchwiz and AOSP kernels for the T999 Galaxy S3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36426656&postcount=2. Only flash kernels for your version of the Galaxy S3 and never flash an international version Galaxy S3 kernel on a US/Canada version Galaxy S3. It is sometimes possible to recover from a bad flash through a NANDROID backup, oftentimes a ODIN restore will be needed.Let me know if you still have questions .

Awesome, thanks! So in other words, I need to ensure my kernel is specifically for the T999 or T999V model of GS3, I cannot use one for ATT or VZW or anything, dtrictly TMO T999 or T999V...
Thanks!!!
Part 2 - I dont quite understand the difference between TW and AOSP, as during my learning days AOSP and AOKP were explained to me in a false way...Thanks!

Yes, you need to ensure the kernel you are flashing is specifically for the T999 or T999V model the of the Galaxy S3. DO NOT use one for ATT, SPR, VZW, etc. only for the T999 or T999V. In answering your second question, TW stands for Touchwiz which refers to the proprietary skin and features Samsung includes in it's ROM it is what the stock ROM that ships with your phone is based on. When browsing ROM threads, the threads title will indicate whether the ROM is based on Touchwiz (TW) or AOSP. AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project and refers to ROMs that have been compiled from source using the Android Open Source Project source code and guidelines ROM thread titles will mention if the ROM is based on AOSP. Many popular ROMs such as Cyanogenmod, AOKP, Paranoid Android, and others are based on the AOSP. AOKP refers to the Android Open Kang Project it is based on a combination of AOSP and Cyanogenmod source code but includes it's own set of unique features and enhancements, you can learn more about AOKP here.
Hi!
Is it possible to use custom roms on korean versions of S2, which my sister happen to have - if yes, how can I do it (had customized sgs, now Nexus5 so I'm not new, just need to be sure I can do no harm to this little guy since it's from korea)? I was looking all over the place and found only tutorial on how to make International version out of korean one ( http://androidhelpsl.blogspot.com/2014/02/how-to-convert-your-samsung-galaxy-s2.html ), so my question stood still.
Thanks a lot for helping me!
This is my first LG phone (well, the original Nexus 5, but that doesn't really apply) I'm wondering if down the line I would be able to find some of the custom roms (AICP, Slim, Resurrection Remix, etc) for this phone. It's starting to make me think I should have done more research before picking it up. It's a nice phone, but I guess I got spoiled on all the options nexus phones and even the Note 4 had.
First thing is that you need to have the T-Mobile version of this phone. Both ATT & Verison have everything locked down and there can be no custom roms until this has been solved.
If you have the T-Mobile version the jump over to the T-Mobile specific forum and they are there already : http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10
So I've messed around with my Galaxy S3 in the past and did a few custom roms a long time ago but as I've been learning about my new tmobile variant of the S5 I've seen more than a dozen kids bricking phones from doing things wrong. I don't want to be that guy.
I'm running 5.1.1, I'm rooted, (twrp recovery, ODIN flash SuperSU Beta method) G900TUVS1FOL1
My questions are as follows.
1. Do I need a rom designed specifically for the FOL1 baseband version?
2. If so is there a way to change it one of the many others I've seen?
My goal is to get a debloated stockish rom, I'm tired of all the bloat that comes on this thing. Thank you guys so much in advance.
