Help installing this ROM? - Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys! So I've been trying to install this rom for quite some time now, never successfully. It says that is compatible with our beloved janice, and I 'd like to give it a try, just for testing. Can anyone get me on the right direction? I'm currently running THIS Android 4.4 ROM.
Thanks!

Don't' flash it. It contains several issues with gti9070 like phone keep crashing and no sim card .

[Q] Supernexus rom cannot read my SIM card.

Hey guys, first post here so let me know if I'm doing anything wrong!
I was feeling ambitious today, so I went ahead and installed the Supernexus 4.0 rom on my i9305t. Install worked fine, and all was well and good until I noticed my SIM card wasn't being read.
I did the classics - rebooting, reseating the card etc.. with no success. Reinstall didn't work either, nor did an alternate version of the rom (check the linkdump).
Any ideas? I'm pretty excited about the rom, so I'd rather not have to flash stock!

[Q] VERY worried about flashing miui rom and new bootloader.

I have just recently restarted using this phone due to my uscellular S4 getting turned off. I am now back on my LG-P990 currently rooted and running CM10.1. BUT most importantly to me is the fact that I have all my wonderful apps on my s4, I want to be able to use them by using the LG phone as a tether and calls not much else BUT CM10.1 tethering does not work, so i find myself flashing rom after rom, avatar rom, older CM mods, none would turn on tethering, so i flashed a modded version of MIUI for this phone and it worked except for ONE thing no signal, tethering turned on just fine so i decided to look around for other roms and found Slimrom TRYED to flash it didnt work, try to flash actual MIUI roms off there site, didnt work, met with an error in CWM Recovery after some searching I found its because Im running the OLD Bootloader -_- THIS is the issue im having IF MIUI does NOT work is it possible to downgrade the bootloader again so i can restore my CM10.1 backup? I have been working at this for a week, if there is something here about this can someone please just point me at it? I would appreciate any help.
On a side note i DID soft brick the phone the other day and found a program called nvflash witch flashed an install of CM mod. Dont know if that will help any.

I really do not understand how other ROMs deny Tethering. Did you flash the latest 2.x kernel by pengus77 after installing the rom? Did you make a clean install(wipe everything then install)? On the other hand, yes you can switch bootloaders as much as you like, just remember that changing the bootloader wipes everything on your internal memory, so do a backup. Did you try just plain old stock 4.0.4? Should work there. Ask anything you want, if you're still having questions.

As to the flashing to stock i lost the original rom backup i had made along time ago and cant find the original firmware anywhere online. When I flashed CM 10.1 I just ran with it, when i go to try tethering it says "Turning on portable wifi hotspot." and it stays on that no matter what untill i restart, left the phone running for 2 days once and that was still stuck on that before i restarted. As for flashing a 2.x kernel i had no idea about that. But yes when i did the installs i would do a clean wipe and install. Most of what i read online led me to believe that there was an error with CM 10.1 nightlys that was not being fixed for the tethering. So that is why i decided to go to another rom. Two questions one how do i go about finding the original firmware for this phone and two how would i go about updating or downgrading the bootloaders and could i be pointed to the files please?

Okay, This is SFSP by @sgspluss which is a pretty fast, stable and battery-friendly slimmed down version of stock ICS. It is available for both Old and NewBL, so you might want to try that first. This is AIO Toolkit. I know that you've used it and bricked your phone, but try again, and for the love of God install the nvflash drivers because most people skip that part. You have to do it manually and if you're running Windows 8 you need to disable Driver Signature Verification. But yeah, you switch bootloaders with this.

can only boot anykernel-versions on cm11

Hello everyone,
I've recently been experimenting a lot with my p880, flashing a couple of different custom roms and kernels.
Whenever though I wanted to flash a kernel that doesn't say “anykernel verion” I ended up in a bootloop. Oppositely, all anykernel-versions are working fine.
I do look at correct smartphone model, cm version and not stock (as I'm currently running the newest cm11 nightly), make a couple of reboots when the first one's unsuccessful, read the developer's instructions and so on...
This is actually not a big deal, but I am still interested in what might be causing this...
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Phil
No ideas? I don't need a solution, but maybe someone has a thought as to in which direction this problem is pointing.
For instance I thought that this might have to do with the way my sd is formatted...
Still would be great if anyone can think of something.
All works great now changing from cwm to the newest twrp recovery.

Complete Recovery and ROM installation issues

Hi everyone. Please bear with me, I did my best to search for the solution to my problem but I've run into dead ends apparently and need help!
I tried to flash an update to my stock sm-g900a, it was a while ago so I don't remember exactly what I was flashing... Basically now it says "Firmware Upgrade Encountered" and that's where I'm stuck.
All I wish to do is install a fresh ROM, whether it be stock or custom, and a recovery if needed. Every ROM and the SafeStrap that I saw seemed to require the phone be rooted, which it is not. I would prefer if it was rooted though. I simply need someone to point me in the right direction as to which ROM and recovery (if needed) to flash in Odin (I do not have an SD card) and to tell me in which order they must be flashed. I honestly thought this would have been a straight forward thing, by no matter how much I searched on here and on Google by no luck. I'm not picky as to features in the ROM etc. but would prefer root if possible.
Thank you for all your help, sometimes you just need a hand from a person with experience!
