Any suggestions on a minimalist rom that works on the SPH-L710T?
No rom I try works.
Most builds are for the 710 not 710T.

This phone is the triband model and not the standard 710.
This model also appears branded and sold by Boost Mobile.
The stock rom on this handset is bloated and slow. I just can not stand using it. I want to install a custom and more minimal rom such as Carbon or CM10 or CM11.
The problem is most custom roms were designed for the 710. The 710T has incompatibility issues because the modem and bootloader appear to be different than the 710.
I can install most of the custom roms that are made available for the non-triband model. The problem is the radio doesn't work. The phone can not register on the network because there is no working modem.
I have tried flashing the NF4 radio after installing a handful of custom roms but the modem functionality doesn't appear to return. And the baseband information will display as unknown. Each attempt forces me to flash the stock 4.4.2 build to get the phone working again.
Does anyone have any working suggestions on how I can dump this stock rom and place a more minimalist working rom on the SPH-L710T? Or have I painted myself in a corner by buying the triband model instead of the standard non-lte model?
I have reviewed the other thread that covers known working roms for the SPH-L710M. But I am not clear on the steps to make them work. I tried installing CM11 and flashing NF4. No success.
I have tried CM10, CM11 and Carbon roms. But most of these roms were designed for the 710. The radio doesn't work. I have tried flashing NF4 after installing these roms but still I get no radio. I always have to revert to the stock 4.4.2 build which is SamBloated in order to get the phone in a usable and working state again.
