Change Device Status - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm on the tmobile version of the S3 and am running the latest radio with a JB leaked rom via XquiziT v34 and kitchen v10.
I am wanting to alter the Device Status settings so it reads from "modified" to either "normal/unmodified" or "Not available." The reason I would like to change it is not for warranty reasons, but because I want to be able to get AllShare Cast to work. I just purchased the dongle and previously had it working on another rom, wanamlite, and I would like it to work on this rom I'm currently running. I've also used Triangle Away to reset the counter back to 0.
Knowing what I've read from all around the forum, I've found out that Samsung doesn't want rooted users who have a modified rom using their exclusive products. And to do that, they created those measures to prevent the usage of their products from modified versions of their stock rom. So unless you have a completely stock rom, you won't be able to get it to fully work. I've tried just about everything else I could think of like flashing various radios, kernels, roms, and triangle away. I was only able to get it to work with a stock rom.
So if anyone can either show me how to alter it, or point me in the right direction on how I can achieve that, that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Mod installation

Hi,
I'm new here and can only imagine how many time seniors seen that sentence... But I've got huge problems with basic stuff.
For instance:
I've found this lockscreen and don't understand how to install it - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2148339
Tried using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144464
Doesn't work
I'm on a rooted LT18i stock ICS.
I'd really appreciate some help.
PS I'm pretty sure there is aguide somewhere here but I couldn't find it
I'll use this thread to ask some other questions as I go if that's allowed.

[Q] "Pure" android ROM

Sup guys. I may be retarded, but I searched everywhere for a stock android KitKat (or even Android L (which is way less likely)) rom and I can't find any.
Is there a "Google Play Edition" Galaxy S5 rom? Or an Unofficial cyanogenmod rom? If so, please link me to it, cause I can't find this anywhere.
Thanks

You really didn't search nor read the rules of posting in development section.
Link to Q&A section where this should have been posted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help​
Link to Unified Development:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/unified-development​
Finally, one reason you didn't find anything in your "search" is because there really aren't any usable options yet. No Google Play edition (If you had checked Google's store you would have seen that there is no S5 for sale). CyanogenMod is hit or miss with people reporting calling echos, wake locks, and other issues such as no camera. Since all other "AOSP" ROMs are usually built using the CyanogenMod base, all of those ROMs are having the same problems.
@github is correct, and it's obvious that this is a Q&A thread, not a Development thread. Thread is now moved to the Q&A section.
Please see the rules link in my signature if you are unclear on anything - I put the applicable rules below for easy access.
Applicable Rules:
Rule #1: Search
Rule #15: Keep threads / posts on-topic

Need help 9860 - rollback from Chinese firmware SM-N9860_CHC_N9860ZCU4FVI6_fac

The great Chinese programmers of the Samsung corporation in the firmware SM-N9860_CHC_N9860ZCU4FVI6_fac blocked the installation of many applications, including google play. At the same time, an attempt to flash ODIN3 to the N9860ZSS4GWA2_13_4File_Hong Kong (OZS) version does not lead to success. I disabled my Samsung and Google accounts, but we still have an error during the firmware process. How to roll back to Hong Kong. Tell me the latest stable hong kong firmware for 9860 thank you. And what else needs to be enabled or disabled in this phone so that the firmware is successful.
