[Q] [question] HE modem and ROM choice

Firstly, sorry I had posted same question in (I don't know where). But I need to post it here in Verizon.
I have installed HE update, Rooted, Unlocked, IMEI backed up, Recovery installed.
#1 Do custom ROMS include the baseband or not? Meaning, does it override the HE I have installed?
#2 Do ROMS need to be specifically designed for HE baseband, for me to flash them and work properly?
Thanks.
PS I am waiting for the Milestone release of AOKP, how will I know if it is made for the HE, will mess up because of me having HE? Is it buried in the AOKP change log, or does the developer control that?

No and no

I may be wrong, but as far as I know, AOSP ROMs (including AOKP) don't build for a particular radio. Until we get an official Verizon TouchWiz jellybean update, the RIL and other networking tweaks in AOSP roms are made from scratch, and should work with any radio. Some radios may work better or worse for you with any given ROM, so you might as well try them all until you find the one that works best for you.

[Q] Need Rom that can Overclock.

Okay guys hear me out, sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums, I'm currently rooted on the stock build I believe, my specs are as follows: Build Number: JROO3C.WW_epad-10.4.2.13-20120907. Android Version: 4.1.1. I rooted to remove bloatware, and whatnot, but now I want to overclock, and it can't be done with the kernal I have I guess, Stock rom doesn't support it, So I'm on a quest to find a working rom for my build that has been tested and working properly, I have the TWRP recovery I think it's called. And if you haven't guessed my device is Asus TF300T. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll be around waiting for a response, so if you need any other question answered or need more info I'll be around, Thanks for all the help.

SO your TF300T is unlocked ?
Apparently, you have the TWRP recovery.
And you want a rom that can overclock ?
So you have several roms, but the best you can do, it's to click to my sig > index for the TF300t, and you will find all roms based on stock and others based on Cyanogen.
The best thing that you can do is to read a little, choose 2 or 3 roms that you find interesting, and try one after one (one week per rom) and you will choose the best rom for you. It will be your choice.

Yes it's unlocked,and thanks, going to try the Hydro rom I suppose. Are the Cyanogen roms compatible with what I'm running? TWRP and Stock JB?

Hydro ROM does not have CPU OC, I think jb blue and [email protected] has overclock. Latest CM 10 is compatible with jellybean boot loader and latest TWRP.

[Q] TW JB Kernel for Verizon SGS3?

I am rooted and unlocked and was hoping someone could offer an opinion on which kernel would be best to run with stock JB rom. I would like the option to OC and as far as I can tell there are 2 main kernels; KToonsez and Leankernel. Are there any more? Either way, which would be most highly recommended? I realize what one thinks works best might not be the case for another, but I am open to suggestions. I also found the Siyah kernel but I think it only works on international versions.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!

There is another TW JB kernel in the original development section here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063058. There is also Faux kernel for TW JB here:http://faux.androidro.ms/d2tmo/beta/d2tmoatt-faux123-kernel-tw-015b03.zip. Here is the homepage for it: https://plus.google.com/u/0/109078966818501160423/posts/ahiHu35k2p5, and the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785466. It is supposed to work fine on Verizon. I haven't used any of them to be able to offer any experiences.

Rooting Question for New S3 User

I got my new black verizon s3 yesterday and i love it, buttery smooth. I was coming from a HTC Thunderbolt. I had rooted my thunderbolt, however since rooting that phone, i noticed that data connectivity didnt seem to be as stable as the non rooted version of that phone.
Here is my question, do you guys recommend rooting this S3 phone? Has it effected the data connectivity (dropped signals, etc)? Some advice and direction for this new S3 user would be helpful from some of you all who have been S3 users for a while. Thank you!

I would recommend rooting since there is a lot of support for the device. Data should be fine but there have been some problems either user related mistakes or bugs in a ROM. Those problems are fixable. Most of the ROMs are stable even the 4.2 ROMs.

i rooted and i think its worth it. it is easy to do and pretty low risk. I did mainly because i wanted to under clock and get better battery life. I haven't noticed any issues regarding loss of data or anything. i run into some issues at times because i try different kernals and roms that are not 100% in their stable phase. But the act of rooting itself isn't going to cause you any issues.

thanks guys, i am going to root the phone tonight after work. i browsed thru the rooting instructions for the jellybean update software (which i got when i activated my phone). I just didnt want to run into unstable data connections like i had with my thunderbolt.
Can you guys recommend any good 4.1 Roms as well as 4.2 roms? Also what is the difference between android 4.1 & 4.2?

It depends on the ROM as all 4.2 ROMs as of now are AOSP ROMs while the 4.1 ROMs are either TW based or AOSP based.

TW is ok... better then Sense IMO, however I like the stock ASOP feel. I will give a 4.2 rom a try. can you recommend a popular, 100% working 4.2 ROM? I looked in the dev section and there are so many Roms to choose from........ 24 hours of having my S3 and i LOVE it! so buttery smooth!

Blackbean 7 Is the most stable of the bunch as of now.

Ok. If you are going to root and Rom there are some things you need to know.
Your going to want to unlock your boot loader. And make an imei backup incase you lose it during a flash.
Search those up and get them done and your good to go

Do you mean Cm 10.1? Because if you flashed cm10 you're still on 4.1. Cm10 has a stable release while cm10.1 is still on nightlies. I've been running 10.1 nightlies for about a month and have only noticed very minor issues. So minor I can't even remember what they are.

FYI there is no such thing as a good ROM for overclocking as it is the kernel not the ROM that does the overclocking. All the kernels are in the original android development section and are on the first page of that section.

I am running Liquidsmooth's RC1. They are releasing their update soon,
Does anyone have a favorite TW based ROM? I am looking for one based on 4.2. I also heard the international 4.2.1 has been leaded. Has anyone tried creating a ROM based on this release? The TW ROMs just look nices than the AOSP despite all the unnecessary features that are loaded.

The international version of the s 3 has different hardware then the US versions making the leak difficult to port. Also there isn't any TW 4.2 ROMs for this phone as Samsung is working on 4.1.2. Lastly we at XDA have realized that what works for one person doesn't work for others so it is best to check out the ROMs yourself and see what works best for YOU.
