[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingmagauk:
I just want a clean stock rom with a smaller navigation bar/soft keys so that I go to use my nexus like in expanded desktop on custom rom but still be able to use drag down notification bar.

Any suggestion guys on how am I able to do that?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Expanded desktop can be set to only hide the nav bar in some roms. I use that in SlimBean.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingmagauk:
Yup that's obvious. I know that. But I want it to work on stock rom.

Thanks anyway

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tom540:
Or you could use

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=be.ppareit.hidebar&hl=en

and then install pie control if you want it, this way you can keep the stock ROM? Its a lot easier to just use a different rom though

Again not feasible as it would not have any power required.

Those cards are designed for the likes of cameras where you don't have to plug into your PC to transfer files off it. As there is no SD slot on the nexus 4. You would require another device with an SD slot to power it

Is hardware US Cellular Galaxy S3 same Verizon Galaxy S3 ?

I want to install rom Verizon Galaxy S3 for US Cellular Galaxy S3

Is it will working fine !
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manojcitc:
Don't do that,it will break your phone ...

Don't do that..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apas100:
Do u mean it will break the phone ( the phone will not power on ) or break carrier

Because I don't care about carrier , I am going to flashing it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Yes the hardware is the same so go ahead and brick your phone. You fail to comprehend the fact the ROM has to be ported for us cellular for it to actually work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apas100:
Sorry I didn't get what u mean :(

I want flash a Verizon ROM onto the US Cellular Galaxy S3 , Is it will working coz it same hardware :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
The fact it is the same hardware doesn't change the fact that you have to alter the software/ROM to work on another carrier. That is where porting comes in and lucky for you there are some ROMs here that are multiple carrier ROMs .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apas100:
I am going to try this rom Galaxy S3 Verizon (I535VRBLK3) for my phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
You are still not getting it. It will not work it is meant for those with Verizon as their cell phone carrier. Plus it is stock version not a ported custom ROM meaning it isn't altered and made to work on another carrier. Let me put it in caps "DON't FLASH IT AS IT WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE" I hope you got that. See you are on US Cellular and must flash ROMs for that carrier so you can't flash the ROM you want to flash but that same ROM I can flash because I HAVE VERIZON so i won't f**k up my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apas100:
I didn't do it yet :( , I want u to know that , I don't care about carrier

I will use it out US , so I just care if the phone will work or not after install rom Galaxy S3 Verizon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
Your phone will not work if you install that ROM. Do not install it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
In all 3 of my posts I stated that it won't work and why it won't work and yet you are still asking the same question. Either you are trolling the site or you are really are lacking intelligence as I stated that it won't work and it doesn't help that your posts make you sound like English is your second language. If you are using it outside the US then a different ROM won't help you but unlocking the SIM card can.

He doesn't comprehend that is I posted that now 4 times already and he is causing me to want a bottle of scotch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
Yeah, you posted 4 different times in 4 different ways he shouldn't flash the VZW ROM, and he still wasn't getting it. So I spelled it out as plain and simple as possible. I figured like you did he is either trolling or English is a second language, or not even a second language. I also figured with as many times as you responded, you might actually bypass the bottle of scotch and go straight to hitting yourself over the head with a hammer :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apas100:
Sorry to make u angry :(

I just looking for way to use my phone

Because I can use Verizon for GSM in my country but US Cellular I can't

I was thinking like that because both of them has same hardware

Sorry again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
My pet peeve is having to repeat myself which makes me angry despite being a mellow person. I just got through blowing the heads of zombies in Dead Island so I am back to being mellow. You will have to SIM unlock your phone if you're going overseas and insert a Verizon SIM card onto your phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfetaz:
Im gonna try to tackle this in a certain way:

There is a thing in mobile phones called firmware. It is like a combo of hardware and software. One thing it allows is software updates to how the hardware works. You know how you can update your bios on your desktop computer? This is a firmware update.

The firmware on US Cellular and Verizon versions of our phone are different. When you flash a verizon rom to your phone, it writes information to the firmware in a way that verizon phones are designed to work with. The US cellular firmware is different, so flashing a verizon rom on your phone will corrupt the firmware and make your phone dead.

Basically, even though the hardware is the same, the part that updates the code within the hardware is different, and verizon roms are not compatible with us cellular roms for this reason.

You can only flash roms designed specifically for US cellular phones. Some roms on the forum have the tag D2USC. These roms will work with your phone.

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
I will also add that ROMs that are multi-carrier compatible are compatible with US Cellular just make sure you choose your current carrier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apas100:
Thanks sfetaz for elucidation

So is there any ROM Supports GSM & CDMA as ROM Verizon , Can I use it with US Cellular
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HHF2:
Just go into the development section and download Axis. Make sure that you root your phone, unlock your bootloader, make a nandroid of your current image, back up your IMEI, and choose US Cellular in the options screen for carrier. You will then have flashed a custom ROM to your phone.

READ everything about all of the steps and UNDERSTAND what you are doing before you start or you will brick your phone!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Darkhlmt:
Okay, just happened across this line of interesting conversation. But, I do have a question. Is there any way to change a phones firmware to allow it to expect another carriers ROM or is that simply a pipe dream?

This is strictly a mental excersize....

Thanks,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FlashHappy78:
Darkhlmt I'm not sure what you're looking for, but I know people with the Canadian variants can edit their build prop to accept d2att ROMs, but they share model numbers (Canadians add an m at the end)

APAs, there are a few ROMs compatible between vzw and USC and I mean few. You're better off hitting the forums at teamuscellular.com for your device, rather than risking bricking your phone

flashing verizon rom on to a us cellular

i read the post about a member asking if he could flash his us cellular s3 to a verizon s3 rom every one says no but i have a question. I have been flashing the us cellular mesmerize to the verizon fascinate rom which is verizon and it works flawless why is that different from the s2 or s3 just wondering why it would brick the s3 and hasn't bricked any of the mesmerize phones. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mtsprite:
The point is that losing carrier is the least of your worries, flash a Verizon rom and all you will end up with is a useless phone. There are specific versions of some roms that are made specifically for the US Cellular s3, those are the only roms that will work. You can find them in the Original Development Section. Also just becuase the phones have the same hardware doesnt mean they can flash the same roms. it has to do with carrier specific files that can, and will only work on that caries phone. (sorry if at any point i sounded mean, im just trying to educate you.)

Restore your EFS backup. No backup ? You're cactus.

Edit - OK. So you got your IMEI back. There clearly seems to be some kind of issue with some stock firmwares that causes people to temporarily lose their IMEI's. It's been happening on here too often lately. Why that is, who knows ? I run custom roms personally & have never used a JB stock rom so haven't experienced the problem myself. Perhaps that might be a 'solution' of sorts for you ?

Eliminate Banner Ads

Backup Everything on Your Phone

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kreoXDA:
This is a very good list. I would just add one more PRO: rooting lets you buy a new phone more often (because you brick your old ones more often) :)

Seriously, one of the main reasons to root for me personally is to get rid of the banner ads for phones I prepare for older people who are prone to clicking on the banners and installing spam as the result.

Basically rooting is for people who like tinkering with their hardware.

OP, since you asked the question, I assume you have not rooted before, you should read up more about this, and maybe wait a few more days, to make sure rooting methods are stable, and you are fully familiar with the procedure. Believe me you do not want your phone accidentally bricked.
