Only 4.3 where you only can root that's it because it locked the bootloader, anything else you can root/flash custom rom/kernel/recovery.

What was your previous full rom before you roll back to 4.0 (ICS)? Once you on one of these JB ROM: 4.1/, 4.1.2/ or 4.2.2 you can flash any custom or modded rom.(4.3 or 4.4 custom rom).

I was originally 4.2.2 before I enter the wonderfully world of rooting n flashing. Do u recomend flashing a backup file or clean install?

[Q] Want the new stock ics ROM but have old Hboot. Any good alternatives?

So, I'm using Fallout 5.0 and it's ok, but I have a gapps.google.com error all the time and it's not working well at times. I wanted to go back to the stock ROM and just enjoy it until I buy a newer phone. But I saw that to get the stock ics ROM you have to update the HBOOT to keep root access. I really am scared to do that as it seems to really do nasty things if I screw up.
So I'm trying to find the best ROM that is closest to the stock ICS ROM that was realeased. What are my choices?

But you will have to upgrade your hboot first.
Yep but anyway, why staying on the outdated revolutionary hboot when most roms actually require hboot 2.00 2002 or 7.00.1002/2002 ?
And 6.98... is write protected.

Most Roms?! No. Ice cream saga, miui v4, stock ics. Only those Roms require a newer hboot. All other Roms ignore the separate /system/lib partition.

Well instead of reinstalling ics, try a factory reset which would delete ur apps and everything excpet ur stuff stored in sd card. So be sure to backup what u need
Or u can root ur phone, install a recovery and flash a custom rom

[Q] BMM compatible MIUI Rom?

I just want to make a sincere request to all our developers.
Would it be possible to port MIUI ROM such that it can be installed in partitions other than 1. Like the ROMs we already have.
Currently I've JB Leak 1 installed in System 1 and I want to keep it as it is.
Thanks.
Miui v4 and 5 both bmm compatible.. U need to check the development thread..
Sent from my ME865 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I understand what you are trying to say. But my concern is, for MIUI, we need to install it over official JB leak 3. And we cannot install official jb leaks on any other partitions. So how will I install MIUI on other partitions? Can't we have a KEXEC type ROM which can be installed just like all other ROMs??

Make a backup of the jb leak 3 via BMM and then restore it on another system then flash miui on top of that. :thumbup:
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.

Use this link if your on the Asia or ME865 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2362411 (its got nightly updates)

Cannot flash Roms anymore !

I have not flash any Roms in a while because I found Avatar Rom was stable for my phone. But since I had trouble with GPS lock, I needed to restore it to stock ICS 4.0 ATT. And then I rooted it and installed TWRP 2.6.1.0. After that, I tried to flash a new ROM, which was [ROM] [4.3} CyanFox (CM-10.2 with extras) 10-05-2013, but it couldn't flash. Tried to flash Avatar Rom stable verison 4.2.2, but failed again. Here is a picture of the error. I don't know what is wrong with my phone.

Exactly that. You see those lines that say "radio test?" they're checking for the latest 4.1 radio. Download and flash ucmc1 and reboot, then you can reboot to recovery and flash any 4.3 or 4.2 rom.

Well, if he doesn't have issue with signal, then you shouldn't have to flash the new ML1 modem. If you want to flash it anyway then here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788313
There are a bunch of custom rom, either TouchWiz custom rom or just custom rom you can choose from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-verizon/development
If you want to stay away from bugs, pick the one that close to stock rom as much as possible.

What is your baseband? If your is already MF1 (I think you are), then just download the ML1 zip and flash it.
