New user here, tried to post a question on the original ROM thread but I don't have that access due to being a new user.
Had a question regarding Foxhound ROM for GT-I9505, it is flashable and fully functional on T-Mobile phones since I have did it on mine.
The ROM:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303239
So...
-Since I have flashed this ROM, my model of my phone changed from "SGH-M919" to ----> "GT-I9505"
-Due to flashing an AT&T Rom, I have lost my T-Mobile Wifi calling feature.
Question:
Is there any way to extract that feature out of a stock T-Mobile Rom and somehow incorporate that into this rom?
Thanks.

I successfully flashed i9505 Omega ROM v7 on I337M (Canadian)
Everyhing works fine but the wifi. I can't seem to turn my wifi on.
Tried looking into it, something about flashing a kernel. So I tried but doesn't work...
Anybody else have same problem that can help me?
Did you manually add in your apn settings, because that rom does not add them automatically, and you said you flashed a different kernel, was it one for YOUR device...i337m kernel?
These 2 things will get you data and wifi for sure.
The Ax says good luck!
v11 on i337m
I didn't want to start a new topic as this one seems to be titled correctly and am hoping to keep XDA clean and getting all the Omega Rom and i337m questions in one place.
I installed Omega v11 on my i337m (Samsung s4) and the ROM worked perfectly however I was no longer able to bring up my IMEI number. When entering *#06# my phone would just show a black screen where the number should be shown. I of course got scared and ran around in circles for a while before calming down and flashing stock FIDO firmware. (phone was originally rogers, was unlocked and used on bell then sold to me) I rooted the phone, installed Omega and then had the issue with it not being able to show the IMEI.
Flashed Omega v11 for i9095
(also bought the omega files pro app because it's a bad ass ROM.) Hoping to go back to it but need to clear up this issue.
Any ideas on why this would happen?
A lot of people want to do the reverse (install a 9505G ROM on a T-Mobile M919) but I want to get T-Mobile's wifi calling on my 9505G. Is it possible to install a ROM made for a M919 onto an unlocked, rooted, ClockworkMod recovery-flashed 9505G? I tried downloading a ROM from the M919 section of the forum but it never actually finishes booting. If this works and anyone has done it, I'd love to get info on how you did it. If it's not going to work at all, I'll stop trying to cram it onto my phone. If it matters, I haven't flashed a different radio or anything, just what comes in the flashable ZIPs that ROM creators upload.
Thanks!

Just install DarthStalker's rom for the i9505. Its in the Original Android Development forum. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419809
It is for this phone and wifi-calling works. I am on T-Mobile and it works for me.
Hi all,
I just sim unlock my sprint s4 both international and domestic. It come with the NAE modem. while unlcok it, I odin to MDC modem.
I have signal and text on AT&T network on this phone now. ( Phone is not rooted yet, I did edit the build.prop to add ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL. I am not sure if not-rooted matters).
Right now I am looking into flashing a rom to use on AT&T network. Lots people suggests Fenny's T-mobile rom. and some suggest SACS CUSTOM ROM
I am not sure which is better if I am using a GSM network.
And If T-mobile roms are better for GSM rom, how could I flash them? Do I need to flash NAE modem back?
Thank you for all of you idea/suggestion.
I just asked pretty much the same question in the following post...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2764201
I think we have to build the roms for the device ourselves, but I was reading about calling issues on unlocked phones so I'm trying to find out what to do as well. Flashing recovery is easy enough, then the rom of course, but getting this right rom zip seems to be a little tricky in our scenario. Not hijacking or anything, but check my thread too in case someone answers on mine first.
BTW, this is the post I was referring to about phone issues with non-stock roms on an unlocked sprint s4...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2539794
Well, it looks like the 100% sure way to get this working is to do the outlined steps in the post linked above to the nightly builds of CM11, which I will link below (notice the spr/att designation at the end of the link)...
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=jfltespr
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=jflteatt
Other way looks to grab a jflteatt labeled rom from the Sprint Android dev subforum, but it looks more hit or miss. I might be way off and overthinking this, but I'm gonna try the mix/match way.
Well, I ended up working this out myself. I grabbed the nightly CM11 spr and att jflte builds, then followed the directions from the post I linked before that showed how to mix the 2 so the Sprint boot.img was in the AT&T build, including changing the updater-script so that the assert line read "jfltespr" in the 3 locations it had "jflteatt", then flashed the jfltespr CWM recovery from Heimdall, used recovery to wipe data/cache/darvik, installed the mixed rom from recovery, then installed the Chronic kernel (blackscreen without this), and the gapps apk for CM11. Once I was done everything worked perfectly, I only had to change the APN to the ATT Phone one for HSPA+. From what I can tell the CDMA portion of the phone is pretty much gone, and it shows the phone model as the AT&T version instead of the Sprint version (ie shows l337 instead of l720). The correct phone number from the SIM is now properly displayed as well. Also, with the Chronic kernel (slight OC) and CM11 the phone is lightning fast and responds instantly. Overall I'm very happy with this. Hope this helps anyone else in the same scenario. BTW, still using MDC modem from Odin flash during the domestic unlock.
Hi,
Currently I have a i337 galaxy s4 which I am using with tmobile sim card. I made it unlocked by ATT before I switched to tmobile. It has baseband UFNI1 and Android 4.4.2 installed. I managed to get it rooted using the Odin software, so I can use the tethering with the tmobile.
Now I am trying to find a way to use the Wi-Fi calling. I searched it a lot and figured out that I need a tmobile rom installed but it quickly got very confusing. It looks like what you need to do also depends on what android version you are using. For some you need safestrap, change the kernel for some you don't. For some you have Wi-Fi issues and need to change the modem etc.
So, I am trying to find the easiest and safest way that will make the Wi-Fi calling work. I don't necessarily need the very latest android version or the fancy custom roms etc,I only need something that will work without any issues. I am perfectly fine with a tmobile stock Rom if that's the most convenient way.
So,I would really appreciate if someone can help me on this. It would be great to have a set of noob friendly instructions. Thanks a lot.

Hi There,
Were you able to root your device for Wifi Calling. I followed the instructions of http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...nvert-i337-to-m919-wifi-caling-t2896719/page6 and went into the same issue. After TMOBILE stock rom, the phone does not boot. I was able to install the first rom and then able to get onto the latest version and able to use phone again with AT&T latest software update (android 5.0.1). Actually, this is the version I have when I started rooting.
If you find any solution, please let me know as I am on the same boat with you on installing TMOBILE ROM using the other thread.
thanks

You cannot install a T-Mobile stock ROM to an AT&T device. Samsung has safeguards in place to prevent it. You would need to root and then install a custom ROM, which on an AT&T is difficult to do with its encrypted bootloader.
However, this is not the appropriate location to ask this. Questions related to AT&T devices belong in the AT&T S4 forums.
Hey Guys,
I have a BELL Samsung G5 - G900W8 locked to BELL running CyanogenMOD 12 custom ROM... I seen posts from a year or so back saying that at that point in time you CANNOT unlock your SIM service for any other carrier. Just wondering if this still is the case....
I have my phone customized the way I like it, so I do not want to flash back to a stock ROM and have to do the process all over again (Unless there is a way to save my current ROM, run a STOCK ROM in the background to put in the UNLOCK CODE (IF THIS IS EVEN POSSIBLE))....
Lets see if I can get some good news today!
Thanks in advance
best bet i'd say, buy your unlock code then try it with while under your current rom, if it doesn't work, you surely can backup your rom and flash a stock rom to do it then restore your custom rom.
