I know how to root then flash my phone, but I'm in Japan and using a Japanese provider. The phones here are fairly locked down and I don't want to run the risk of using a custom ROM and being unable to use my provider.
Does anyone know if there are any problems with installing a custom ROM and using a Japanese provider?
I'm using a Galaxy S6 and I hate the Samsung default.

T-Mobile Galaxy S3 LTE SGH-T999L
Hi there. I just want to flash the latest version of stock Android (L if possible, KitKat otherwise). The Google Now launcher isn't enough; I want the improved performance and efficiency and I want all the useless Samsung apps off my phone. After I root my phone, where do I get a simple stock ROM? All I can seem to find are custom ROMs with all kinds of mods. I just want stock Android or a very lightly-modified alternative. As far as I can tell right now the closest ROM would be CM.
Thanks.

Can't find an Android L ROM for your device.
But you should ask in the T-Mobile, Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron Samsung Galaxy S III > T-Mobile Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
You can check the T-Mobile, Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron Samsung Galaxy S III T-Mobile > Galaxy S III Android Development > [Firmware/OTA's] [root66] SGH-T999(All Variants!) Official & Root66 FW & OTA Updates! thread for latest official firmwares.

Hi, I recently joined XDA to get information about how to install or modify custom roms.
I firstly tried to search before making this thread, but I couldn't get exact information that I wanted. (Or, my searching was crap..)
I'm very new to Android (was using iPhones), so I would be very appreciated if you can help starting from basic knowledge.
Device Type - Samsung Galaxy Note II
Model Number - SGH-T889V
Android Version - 4.4.2
Baseband Version - T889VVLUDNH2
Kernal Version - 3.0.31-1736364
Build Number - KOT49H.5889VVLUDNH2
Carrier - WIND Mobile
1.
What is the most stable Custom ROM for my device?
I saw Cyanogen, MIUI, OMNI, etc.
However, I couldn't select anything since I didn't know wheter they support my device or not.
2.
Can you help me to find information about installing them? (from #1 question)
3.
I saw that Note 2 can have Note 3 or 4 roms.
I want to know the difference between note 2 and note 4 roms. (like more stable, fast, compatible, etc)
4.
I saw that my device could be locked by WIND.
How can I check if it's locked without getting new SIM card?
If you need more information, I can definitely provide them, so feel free to tell me!
Thanks to whoever would help me.

Hi and welcome to XDA.
I see you've found your device forum. As the galaxy ace 3 is not that common here please allow people time to respond to your query.
The rooting guide is here > Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 > Galaxy Ace 3 General > [GUIDE] [Root] [CWM] Samsung Galaxy Ace 3
