Not sure if I'm posting in the correct section.. but wanted to ask the experts if there is a ROM that will allow me to have the Hot Spot Feature with my business plan... but NOT effect the WIFI calling performance? It's an absolute must that I have a good consistent WIFI calling as I have ZERO reception at my home office!

Thank you for any advice or help!

PS. I know that the S3's were having major issues with the WIFI calling up until a couple of weeks ago.. I heard it was on TMobiles end however.

I could be wrong, but as long as your flashing a touchwiz Rom, you should expect the same, ideally better, performance as stock.

alright guys the thread has been reported for movement. no one else needs to tell him that it's in the wrong section the mods know. as to the question all touchwiz roms that are official port such as wicked,frosty and such all have the wifi calling feature. As to the root method

this one is for JB http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426451

and this one is for ICS http://androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390135922294522635

go to this thread it will explain how to do everything http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687
hope that helps:good:

its not intended just for you, it causes more clean up for mods as well and that's why they put the report option so the thread wouldnt be filled to the brim with comments about it being in the wrong section and Flaming the OP.

on another note have you flashed any of the roms yet?

Just got back to the house... I plan on flashing probably later this evening or tomorrow morning. Do you happen to know if there is any backup that literally mirrors your phone image? IE Text Messages etc?

One more question if you dont mind... I noticed on the way home I would pickup up Edge and "G" on my GS3... assuming this is AT&T.. the only way the phone was able to even see the signal is when I made some adjustments in the Roaming / register with the network settings. Is there any Rom or Flash that will allow the phone to work on the AT&T towers? I noticed I wasnt able to actually place a call on the network ... or at least not consistently when the phone saw almost full bar AT&T.

Thanks for the heads up!

well when roaming all roms intended for a t mobile version will switch to at&t towers but if you want to be constantly on att towers you would have to switch over to att.

also if your on jb right and root then just flash another jb rom touchwiz of course the settings will carry over msgs and such. same goes for ICS but if you wipe during the flashing process all of those settings will be lost. the way i do now is im on cm 10,1 and when ever a update comes out now i just press update no wiping is done during the process.

Thanks again for the advice.. I'm downloading the recommended link that you sent me for Root 66. Which Rom do you recommend for best all around performance & keeping stock touch wiz so as to not screw up the WIFI calling feature?
