    Thread Compiling ROMs for the non-beginner

    I'd like to get some opinions/resources on compiling custom ROMs, only been able to find beginner guides involving Linux basics and the Android kitchen etc.. I'm more interested in starting from scratch, extracting specific components (system/bootloader/kernel etc) and partition breakdowns...

    Thread Coverage inquiry

    I'd like to get some opinions on the quality of 4G service in different areas, Im considering switching to T-Mobile from Verizon, I have the d2vzw GS3 with unlimited data plan and If I were to switch, it would be for the N5 with unlimited but that's besides the point. It seems whenever someone...

    Thread CM10.2 - Switching network modes

    I recently switched from CleanROM 7 to CM 10.2 and switching between 4G/3G and WiFi seems buggy, sometimes a reboot is required when leaving a WiFi hotspot to get data working correctly. Is there a fix or radio I should flash? Thanks! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

    Thread Switching to T-Mobile or ATT

    New data stats for 2014 are out and it looks like ATT is giving VZW a run for their money with T-Mobile trailing as a close third. ATT data plans are a little cheaper than T-Mobile, but they do not have an unlimited tier, T-Mobile does however and they finance the Nexus 5. From my...

    Thread Project Ara, thoughts?

    Haven't been on these forums in awhile, I'm due for an upgrade soon and wanted to get some opinions on what to get. Still have the grandfathered unlimited data plan, so I'm thinking of holding off for the new moto modular phone which is basically an iteration of Phoneblocks, if you haven't...

    Thread Who's jumping ship after their contract is up?

    I have to say, after 8 years with VZW, I'm finally throwing in the towel and moving onto another network who actually respects their customers. With the lack of updates and feature support to their tiered data plans, it just doesn't seem logical from a consumers perspective to stay with a...

    Thread AOSP & data speeds

    So I've been running CleanROM 5.6 for awhile and it hasn't been updated in awhile. I really want to give AOSP a shot but last time I flashed CM10, I had constant data drops, it was actually pretty bad compared to CleanROM. I was hoping to get some opinions on some AOSP ROMs, data stability...

    Thread Samsung JB Source

    Has the Samsung JB source dropped yet? I've been waiting patently for a 100% stable JB AOSP ROM for GS3 since I got it in June, and since we have official TW JB build now, I was wondering when we can expect to see a fully functional CM10 build, it still looks like there are quite a few bugs...

    Thread Data speed tests : CM10 vs. TW

    I've been wanting to flash CM10 for awhile now but the first few times I did, my data speeds were poor compared to Touchwiz based ROMs, about a 5-10 dBm drop. I work at a corperate server and use FTP Cafe a lot which requires a strong data/WiFi connection. I was wondering if anyone has run...

    Thread Screen protector compatible with Otter Box commuter case

    Just like the title says, I recently scratched my screen protector which is pretty noticeable. I noticed the one that came with the Otter Box commuter case doesn't cover the entire screen because the rubber part covers the edges. Is there a particular screen protector I should use? Thx! Sent...

    Thread Crappy FiOS reception in proximity to GS3

    Idk if I'm just imagining things, but every time my GS3 comes within a few feet of my FiOS box, the reception on my TV gets very distorted. This started to happen just after I got the GS3, anyone else? Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

    Thread New GS3 OTA

    Could someone please chime in on the new OTA from Verizon? These threads are all misleading, some say it will brick if the bootloader is unlocked, which mine is, and others say just Odin back to stock and accept the OTA. I'm very weary of accepting the OTA with so many mixed opinions. It's...

    I'm currently running a SynergyROM r64 nand and my lte doesn't seem to work. I checked my IMEI in phone info -> stats and it's the same as before I flashed CM10 beta 9/3 build. Could flashing CM10 have corrupted my IMEI? Before I flashed, I entered su reboot nvbackup from andriod terminal to...

    Thread Flashing any GS3 ROM?

    I'm wondering now that our bootloader is unlocked, thanks to Adam Outler and all the amazing devs here, is it possible to flash any custom ROM built for the GS3 regardless of the carrier? I imagine there would be some issues with IMEI loss, but the hardware seems identical across all carriers...

    Thread Odien(kexec) Vs Sprint's unlocked bootloader

    I'm contemplating whether to return my GSIII and cancel my Verizon account within the two week period for the unlocked bootloader from Sprint, touchwiz is bad enough WITHOUT all the VZW bloat! I'm hesitant because of VZW's premium coverage and my monthly rates were grandfathered, but I'm...
