Are / is there a compiled list of ROM's available for the Galaxy Tab 2 from AT&T, SGH-1497? I've got the tab rooted and with custom recovery but haven't been able to find much development or 4.3 ROM's for it. Any direction is appreciated. Thanks.

There is nothing more than what you already have unless you want a stock deodexed version. There has been no other development for this version.
Awe, that's less than satisfying. Was hoping for a 4.3 ROM. Any ideas if anything is going to be developed. I'm not a ROM builder by any means.

Honestly I doubt it. Just not very popular with the devs since it is so much different than the unbranded version.
Well pooh. Guess I'll just have to wait for official updates and make it as pretty as I can with launchers / apps. Thanks for the info.

Maybe you could root it and remove the bloatware and stuff..? That should help speed it up.

Ok, so I'm not a dev and I don't get most of the terms being thrown around here (although I think I've actually picked up a decent amount). Basically, what I'd like to do with my phone is to root and then upgrade to JB as soon as possible (and to Key Lime Pie as soon as possible once it comes out too). With how the bootloader stuff stands right now, will I be able to do that safely once ROMs start coming out or would I have to wait for Verizon's OTA's?
Which phone would that be, sgs3? The bootloader is encrypted but I believe you can flash roms with stock kernels as its been rooted. But there are several threads explaining the options... Get a gnex!

Yeah I was leaning towards the GNex but if I can get custom roms on an S3 then why not get that (as long as I'm ok with stock kernels)?
Yeh that's what I'm not sure of...especially with this 'developer' sgs3 from Samsung. I have given up on skins from oems who won't give into Verizon's ridiculous demands. I'd be very cautious attempting to flash anything yet as its very new.

Hey guys-
I use Good for Enterprise on my gs3, currently running stock ICS. I want to flash the new stock rooted JB leak (11/15 kernel) but since Good is not officially supported on JB with this device, my supervisor is telling me not to do it since it could cause the app to not work right. I am rooted with an unlocked bootloader just itching to flash this...
Getting new PINs for the app are not an issue, since I am one of the Good admins in my company.
Anyone know if it is ok for me to do this? I think he is being ridiculous about this, considering we know it has gs3 support and JB support. Sprint has has JB for weeks already!
Doesn't this app check for root? The company I work for uses Good and a buddy had a S3 rooted (Sprint) and the admins said he couldn't use it because he was rooted. If you put on a stock not rooted image then I would think it would work unless JB gives it problems.

Try it. Make sure you do a nandroid backup first. If you run into a problem you can just revert back to what you were using before you flashed and pick up like you never wiped all data apps and info are restored.

I have been rooted for a few months now, and have not come across an issue... I have read that it checks for root also, but maybe the way my company configured it, it doesn't matter?
I am the guy in my office that configures the PINs and i can see device status for everything, and mine seems normal.
Go ahead and give it a try if your comfortable doing it like the above post has, make a nandroid and go at it!

Your employer can choose whether to allow Good on a rooted device. Mine allows it, and Good works fine on my GS3 with the first JB release.. Except for the "secure browser".. Apparently that does not support JB yet.
Samsung released the official kernel for the Galaxy S4 Active. It is from the launch MF2 firmware which has since been updated to MF3 to fix issues with some phones not powering on without a battery pull and reinsert. STILL PROGRESS...

If you're on MDL and want MF3, I recommend rooting and installing a custom recovery while you can, and then flashing the neutered MF3 update. Root is in the General section, many MF3 ROM's can be found in Development sections. Make sure to read the whole OP in whichever you go to before doing anything.

i did just that....but know i get samsung text to speech has stopped as well as music has stopped...factory wipe and clean did nothing as well as restoring terminator back up of all things i uninstalled...nothing help so i figured fresh install of mf3 firmware would do the trick but i guess no one has that yet

I just really want the update so I can open the extra LTE bands. Also the Apps to SD would be nice. The Rooted roms dont fix the LTE bands. Also i dont care about rooting. Looks like CM is going to be coming out with a non root flash method for thier roms anyway.
You can unlock them... You don't need the update. Google.

Yes, you may be able to just flash the MF3 modem after a factory reset. That would hopefully resolve your current issues and open up the LTE bands.

The extra bands are unlocked through the service menus. Not through a modem. If that were the case, the update would unlock your device for any GSM carrier. AT&T is not going to do that.

Yeah AT&T opened up access to lte band 2 and 5 with the mf3 on their modem. Probably for international oversea purposes/partnership?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
If you want the MF3 rom and/or kernel, check out this thread. If you want just the modem (baseband), check out the latest addition, File #11 in that same thread.
Otherwise, I think this thread has been hijacked enough, and the original purpose has been served, in my opinion. The MF3 source is practically useless to anyone except Devs that want to build their own kernels.

Could the kernel source also be useful to those looking to find an exploit in MF3 (to unlock the bootloader or something to that effect), or is the kernel too high-level for that sort of thing?

Pretty sure it's too high level. It might be useful for finding a root exploit, but that's been done already for MF3. It wouldn't be useful for finding a way to unlock the bootloaders, but the only slim help it could find in this area is perhaps providing clues to understanding "aboot" more, and how it checks for signatures on, and loads the kernel. But even still, that's a longshot. TBH, anyone who might be looking for exploits here should already be aware of the source code's existence, plus this sort of exploit would brobably be little different between MF3 and MDL.
EDIT:
Also, welcome to XDA!
Excuse the possibly noobish question here, but what does this mean for the new root status? My phone came with MF3 and I really would like to get some custom ROMs on here. :?

Unless you want a TouchWiz ROM?
I could be wrong but aren't those ROMs for the Tab 1 10.1? Flashing those on a Tab 2 most likely will turn your Tab 2 into a brick. And there are no ROMs for the ATT Tab 2 except for a deodexed stock ROM. Devs just don't support these tablets.

They are for the Tab2 (considering I pulled the link for the first one from this forum).
The CM builds support both the T779 and the P75XX series Tabs. Also, the I497 is supported also (however, there could be issues with it such as only edge data and something weird with the system partition). There are quite a few ROMs on tabletroms.com that support the I497/T779 also.
Correction... there used to be... Looks like I haven't been over there for awhile. Sorry about that.

First link you pulled is from the Tab 1 forum and not the Tab 2 forum. And those 2 Tablets are not compatible. They have different cpu, gpu, and chipsets.

So I can or can't use any roms?

Will this work with the T779?
That is for the Tab 1, so no you can't. They are 2 totally different Tablets. I have the AT&T I497 which is basically the same as the T-mobile T779. I have looked extensively for a custom ROM for either device. They just don't exist. I can deodex a stock ROM but I am not talented enough to port a ROM over or I would try.
Is there anyone out there making a rom t779 compatible? ?

I think will be any Hellraiser.zip with modem and kernel and other system files for SGH-I497 like i have on Samsung Galaxy S II I777AT&T. first i did install custom firmware for GT EU model then install Hellraiser and all worked! May be someone know how collect Hellraiser for I497 ?
I have a rooted SGH-T779, if anyone still cares. I found a TWRP recovery that can be flashed through Odin here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...p-2-4-4-0-espresso10att.2228332/post-84234909. I know it says sgt-i497 but that is the AT&T version of the Galaxy Tab2 10.1 4G. It's same hardware, CPU, etc. as the TMO SGH-T779. Once the TWRP is flashed you can flash CF-Autoroot and you shall be rooted! Sadly I haven't found any cool ROMS for either the SGH-I497 or SGH-t779. As the years roll by I keeping hoping but it doesn't seem likely.
