whoa dude
1. android 4.1.1 would be cm10, not cm9. unless you're selling a phone with android 4.0.4, which would be cm9. don't confuse the customer.
2. this phone has a 3G radio only, no 4G.

correction
You are correct and i knew that i was totally mesmorized by the sick ass boot animation which clearly states CM9 BTW can someone tell me how to extract that image and install it on my S2 T989?

Skep, i believe his new phone (or phone he is posting from) is the s2 t989 and old phone is fascinate.
The most stable 4.4 rom in my opinion right now is paranoid android beta 3

next time google the phone specs lol
obviously there is no magic involved here if the phone didn't support 4g from the factory then it never will you are talking about differneces in hardware
something you *should* know by now
also I don't recommenced selling a phone preloaded with cyanogen mod the customer may have issues getting it to activate with verizon afaik last I checked you can not activate a phone running cyanogen mod you need to be running the stock firmware first activate THEN flash to whatever

Im more of a software guy never once had or will have verizon as a carrier or sprint so I wasnt sure and the guy asked so as a stand up guy instead of bull****ting him to sell the phone i asked and phone is advertised with cm rom installed and also for the choice to be flashed back to the powerwashed 2.3.4 GB so thanks for the input but I do *KNOW* how to list and sell a phone.

:thumbup: hey no worries from me, was just trying to keep the q&a in one thread. You were basically asking same question at two spots.
Not yelling just friendly suggestions.

Yes sir.I believe I have a good grasp of at least how not to use the Q&A ? thank you for your time

I'm gonna out on a limb and say no. But ask entropy. I figured there would be a lot more devs on this phone, but it is brand new so...
No dont. They are no the same. They use different radios for one. Do not attempt to do that.
yeah don't it could brick the phone (easy fix if you know what your doing) but this was something that was tried out at the beginning with the first sgs phones all the phones were different so the roms didn't really work and when ported over still caused problems for the phones that the rom wasn't built for. :/

No one has figured out a "hellraiser" style strategy for the I777 yet.
Don't know if one will be identified... It's more complicated than just swapping a 777 kernel/modem in, I tried earlier today. Haven't had time to review the results, other than I've got a logcat full of errors.
Different size screen, radio, cell technology, and processors. Yeah it might work.

Antenna Problem help!!!

Hi guys I have been getting slow speeds, on my 4g galaxy s is really slow the top is 0.12mbps beyond that it can't even touch 0.13, is something wrong with the radio?, i called my service provider and they said that my service was fine and it could be a problem with the phone. The phone is brand new and it started a couple of days ago, they also say it may be a problem with the towers in my area. It has to do with the phone I think because the tower cant be bad for days
are you on stock or a custom rom?
have you tried a different modem driver?
Why did you make 2 threads with the same question?
Also, go over to the galaxy s 4g section, as that is your phone and more people can help you. This is the vibrant 3g section.

What should I do to get it on the AT&T network?
I have already purchased the phone and the sim card from AT&T is already on its way here.
I have tried searching but I only find threads on rooting and flash custom roms but I havent found one that states which rom would work for International phone on ATT's network
Any help would be appreciated. Cause I am now worried I bought a $700 paper weight I cant use.

The international one WILL work on at&t, I think the op was kind of misleading.
It seems slim thought you were asking if international roms will work on US S3.
Tbh I thought the same.
Any rom in the development section here will work on your phone. No problem.
Just as long as its the international model, GT-I9300.

My bad. Yeah, it's one of those confusing sentences. If you have I9300 then whatever is in this board will work.

[Q] Help Rogers SGH-i717R Can't find a working rooting + recovery and rom flash guide

I hope this question is not a stupid one...
I want to say that I tried searching and all guides come either outdated with broken links or just designed for a different model.
I have a Galaxy Note SGH-i717R which is a canadian version. I cannot find a current working rooting method that will guide me through installing a CWM or TWRP recovery plus let me flash CM or any other KitKat based ROM.
I have downloaded:
CWM-TOUCH-i717-6043.zip but I know I can't install it until I root. But all rooting guides are outdated and do not work.
I have a good idea on how to root and install custom roms, I've done it on various phones including on my Nexus 5 and 7.
Can anyone give me a link or a quick breakdown of what I need?
I can't stress enough that this is a SGH-i717R not SGH-i717, i have a Canadian Version.
Thanks in advance!

With all the different variants of this device, no two are as similar. There have been many to flash the US version to Canadian model. I see no harm, but it is your device. Have you read the Super Everything thread?

I think i've read that thread too and i think most of it did not apply to the R version of thsi phone. Also someone was mentioning that the phone since it is a canadian variant..will reload the stock ROM back on under reboot. Is this true?

Its running 4.1.2
And its not i717 but i717R.... something about the Canadian R variant make its almost impossible to flash with AT&T versions of the ROMs. OR I am not reading the threads correctly.

It's been so long since ICS, I'm not sure if you have to flash JB before going to KK or not. Look for any thread with JamieD81 on it. He's from Canada so his should work.

Its not really a big deal weather i get CM on this phone or not, but since I have it as a spare phone next to my Nexus 5, I really want something more modern running on it.
