I've got a Galaxy Note SGH-I717M from Bell Mobility. I wanna get rid of the Samsung bloatware, load up fresh 4.3 and change the modem software so that it works on Wind Mobile. How the heck do I do this? :fingers-crossed:

I've heard of people doing what I described, so there's gotta be a way...
4.3 doesn't exist for the SGH-I717 in fully functioning form yet. The only "release" I've seen was from JamieD and he pointed out right up front that the sound did not work on that ROM. I flashed it and ran it for a while and it was very smooth but not ready yet. Won't be long though so hang in there a little while, there are a lot of us waiting for 4.3! :laugh:
4.3 isn't a huge update anyways lol

Ok cool, so what do I do to upgrade to the latest stable ROM and change the modem software so that it works on Wind?
When you say "stable", it can be interpreted in different ways.
The absolute rock-steady stable will be stock-based ROMs, like blackjelly and Padawan.
If you mean "stable enough" for a daily use, you can use any of the 4.2.2 roms. You will have to research and read to find out what is working and what isn't. For me personally, I am using uXylon rom with Uber kernel. Mostly stable, except reboots occasionally.
And you will have to find a modem and flash it separately. I believe you will need to flash a t-mobile modem, but I am not sure. You can search the forum to see if anyone else has done it before. I am sure it was asked before.
thought i would chime in since some people are giving extremely bogus information and should just not comment.
the only difference between the Telus i717d, Rogers i717r, Bell i717m and the ugly one of the bunch the ATT i717*I HATE PHONE BRANDING!* is the bloat loaded onto the phone and the firmware/baseband versions
every single rom in this section will work on every single i717, it may react different on some as not all phones are made identical but in everyday terms they are the same phone...
even the modems are interchangeable between all of them, i run an unlocked att i717 with telus modem, before that i had an i717m and ran telus modem.

I im thinking about getting this phone and was wondering if you can flash ROM's from the international version of the samsung galaxy s II, i know that on my inspire 4G i can flash desire HD ROM's, thank you.
Not yet 100%, but it's on the way. It's called Hellraiser. Go check out it's thread in the dev section.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
Many I9100 roms can be flashed using Entropy512's ROM Hellraiser for I777. Check out the thread in the development forum.
as said use the hellraiser just make sure its a samsung rom otherwise it won't work completely if i remember correctly
thank ya'll very much it seams very interesting
Yeah, CM7-derived ROMs can't be Hellraised - but we already have native CM7.
All the different ROMs that I have tried (Criskelo, CheckRom, Sensation, Villain) have worked fairly well with the Hellraiser package. There are supposedly a few small problems which didn't really effect me at all but will be ironed out eventually.

[ROM_LEAK] AT&T Skyrocket ICS leaked (Same chipset as Note?) [DEVS ONLY] get it here
Not sure where to post this, but as it's ROM related with sources I'm hoping here is the best place.
ICS for Skyrocket ROM leaked, which has to be extremely close to the same code base for the Note's LTE QComm Snapdragon S3 chipset.
Is this something our ROM devs can use for a solid ICS foundation for our Note? If not please forgive my mistake, just trying to help out...
DL from my mirror here
Original source info http://rootzwiki.com/topic/21384-ics-leak-for-att-skyrocket-4g/
Yeah I was reading about this in the Skyrocket forum last night or this morning and was quite excited hopefully we can make something of it and i have no problem donating webspace/storage and money to help out devs.
Belongs in general but thanks for the link
Thanks let see of devs can make this work for the note

leak is cool . but we need kernel source if we intend to port their base to ours so it would be a kernel dev 's work ..
I m thining we ll have a leak soon .. if ics got leaked for skyrocket it certainly exists somewhere for the note .. just need to be patient
Just as well, AT&T released a list of phones that would receive the ICS update. The Note was on it as well as the Skyrocket. All of this bodes well, and further suggest what i was the first to say. We'll get ICS shortly after its released for the international note, the Angry Birds Space app would be a new app....not an update to an existing app like some suggested (this made absolutely no sense to me) and that the premium suite would be a host of s-pen apps and updates (i stated all of this before the video was even close to being released. Im on a roll!!

Maybe we'll get lucky and get a ics kernel source leak for the note soon, so DA_G can work his magic, not like I'm in a rush, I'm enjoying gingerbread but I do miss ICS.

I'm still running the stock rom (with DaG's Kernel and supercharger) and my experience has been pleasant. I havent the need to flash a rom yet, but that day is coming soon.. waiting for a better theme for the SolarisPrime to come out
These comments are the antithesis of Dev only^^
On topic: we won't be able to get it booting without a kernel as said previously. And without source out a hacked one would be a mangled **** show so for now we have to wait.
If your interested though gb skyrocket roms boot with one of our kernels. We still needs a new one but it would be something to work on till we get source or a leak
T-mobile galaxy s2 boots with the skyrocket kernel...anybody willing to softbrick to try it out?
I have on my my t989 and my galaxy note. I'm using the galaxy note as my daily driver, but the t989 has the leaked skyrocket rom on it, so there are some things missing. I don't want to rely on it if I bork my note and don't have time to fix it. My Gnex is at home too...otherwise I'd just do it and see how it goes!

Not running Saurom myself right now, but from a GB perspective, I could not agree more. What makes the device great is the device itself. To me, ICS is an A while GB is a B+ at absolute worst, so like you, I will gladly wait.

I used holo and da_g when I tried and it boots I didn't try with skyrocket kernel mainly due to the likelygood of no spen support. Although you never know. I have work all day otherwise I'd try again

I dont think that means anything.
I'm sorry but this question has been bothering me for sometime. I have googled this question but have had no luck. What is the main reason there aren't a lot of custom roms like the international one has? I know our device is newer so I'm just simply asking. This isn't a complaint, ETA or a rant, its simply a question. I know when the atrix came out there were some pseudo roms out until the bootloader became unlocked and then the floodgates opened. Will most of the international roms make it over to this phone eventually. I'm sorry in advanced if this question has been asked before but I really tried to find it first.
the international phone uses a different chipset than this one so no none of the roms will work. the reason we dont have so many roms is because we dont have as many devs as everyone else does (my opinion) but this phone isnt that greatly wanted because of its size so we may never have a lot of roms. the ones we do have are great we just need more themes to go with them. you can port a rom from the skyrocket or t-mobile gs2 if you would like to. im currently running t-mobile ics rom now
Im hoping that theres lot of roms to come but what do i know. The phone is great, not sure why its not popular, yea its big but still sick.

I believe someone tried to flash a skyrocket rom to their note... didn't end well.
The moral of the story is: you can't.
Edit: unless you port it (something not so easy), as smartguy044 said.
You have to change a few files but it works. Im using tmobile rom with everything working great and a theme for the skyrocket

Eh. The main reason is because this phone is so new. It hasn't even been out for 2 months. Thats not long in the dev community. Hell, it took like 6 months just to unlock the bootloader on my atrix and even longer for ROMs. With ICS rolling out and the note gaining traction, you will see an abundance of dev help in the coming months

I agree that the Note is "wanted", which will eventually be great for future rom development. However, the figure is 5 million sold globally since the global version's release, not just the US market.

Better than I expected.
We just had a few new dev's join our team, announcement of upcoming cm9, ics release... i'd say we're in pretty good shape for some solid roms coming very soon.

Newest is always assumed to be the best; however, the reliability and functionality of the modems vary by your location. What may work exceptionally well for me could produce lackluster results for you. Your best bet is to try them out for yourself. Flashing them is easy enough.
Good luck.
Thank you for your help!
I was also attracted to the leaked packages, until I realized:
Leaks have even less quality and effort put in, compared to the horrible firmware actually released. They're just early.
The leaks may be some android version, but they've been mangled by Samsung AND AT&T. Vanilla is now my only flavor...
(maybe the leaked nature of the leaks is appealing in itself? Makes you feel like you're getting one up on "the system"? BYPASS the system with CM9!)
All 3 of the leaks work well for me. UCLD3 is GREAT and I will run it until another leak (or an official release) comes along.
With that said...no ROM is perfect.
You will have the most choices and dev support using ported firmwares that are originally developed and others ported work.

with your experience on XDA you should know, what is going to be an excellent ROM for somebody else, may not be for you. I don't know what kind of user you are.
not sure what your last phone was, but we have quite a bit of variety here.
here is my rundown and I am sure you know basics
ICS 4.0.4...........super stable by know beings update official updates have gone beyond
JB 4.1.2...........Touchwiz based pretty darn close to stock (debloated) and DAMN stable. only a couple out there but rock solid. some theming and mods out there for personal touches. not many updates needed
JB 4.2..............these would be AOSP, AOKP and CM based ROMS. lots of customizing. basically 3 ROM's in 1. with bells and whistles are some shortcomings. random reboots being the biggest flaw. many have success using alternate KERNALS built in conjunction with certain ROM's, giving options for OCing and UVing. different tweaks here and there can better chances for success. lots of updates on these.
JB 4.3..............still early in the game. smooth but working out a lot of kinks right now. its coming along
just an honest everyday user here giving an honest opinion m my experience here. folks are great funny and very helpful and a LOT of talent in development here.
good luck my friend. I am sure others will be along to correct me on SOMETHNG
