Since there is not a consolidated thread/forum for people who bought the unlocked t-mobile note 3 and use it on the AT&T network, I will make one here. This is for people who have any complaints or praises of their phone.
How is the reception of your phone?
Any problem with rooting or custom rom?
How is the performance after rooting or with custom rom?
Any regrets on buying the phone?
Then it should be on the AT&T forum.... People using the T-Mobile model on AT&T will probably go there to check for help.

Actually I think it fits this forum more. I was trying to figure out which forum is best and I think the t-mobile is better because of the hardware. Later on more ROMs and modding of the device would affect it.
It be better if it stay in T-mobile because every thing else about this particular model is here. So i personally would like to not jump between two different sections. IMHO.
Aren't they the same model?

I am trying to find a Thread which had APN settings for various providers including ATT and Straight talk. But i cant find that thread. I wanted to at-least reference that thread in this one. To consolidate helpful information. For those of us who are using Tmobile N3 on ATT network. AHA... Found it!
[Guide] T-mobile Note 3 on AT&T's Network/Root info/LTE Confirmed
If we put an AT&T rom from the AT&T rom development forum, it may mess up the t-mobile phone since they have different frequency band. Therefore, it is best to use the t-mobile ROMs and report any bugs here in this thread.
Both being same devices except for radio bands, we will see most of the roms being cross compatible.
In any case if the phone is factory unlocked you can put any room designed for the 900t on it and use it with att.

what i meant was u can put a rom compatible with n900a( att version ) in N900T ( tmob) and vice verssa .. But i would wait till someone tests it out..
Yes rom* and what I said is what I meant but of course some 900a roms MAY work with it but simple comparison is like using a n9000 (unlocked international model regardless of rom) on T-Mobile. Easiest method is to use the 900t roms and enter the apn for att of course. Just to clarify.

I am an ATT Subscrber using a TMOBILE NOTE 3. The original NOTE I purchased I did the CF CHainfire Region unlock and it unlocked my SIM - but, I flashed a rom and did a Nadroid restore and borked my phone into constant bootloops - I picked up a second phone rooted it - and STUPID ME - tried flashing a second rom - this time I made the mistake of flashing an updated version of TWRP that ultimately BORKED MY PHONE AGAIN. ARGHH. I am not a noobie - I have been flashing roms for years and never had these issuses before.
I have my replacement NOTE 3 (I love TMOBILE customer service, though I don't think I can ever show up there again) and tis time I am being much more careful. I am rooted but I won't flash a custom recovery until I am certain things are more stable. Right now, too many phones are having issues - too many users in constant bootloops.
anyway - that is my experience so far. I love the NOTE 3 - Reception is Awesome - LTES speeds are just as good as they were on my ATT S4 - absolutely no complaints - EXCEPT I hate KNOX - which I think is the ultimate root of the problem so many people are having with Bootloops -
That's my story ..... happy to be here - and to be honest, for those that suggested we use ATT forum for this Thread - I think this belongs right where it is. We are using a TMOBILE PHONE - this thread belongs in the TMOBILE forum. Those are my two cents.

Weren't able to go back to recovery? Typically if you're stuck in a boot loop the phone is obviously still responding. I hope you didn't toss the og notes!

Well said. I vote to leave it here as well. I will be looking for roms on this site...I have rooted my unlocked T-Mobile Note 3. Flashed recovery thru goomanager, and...flashed Darthstalker rom version 2. No KNOX or carrier id...running very smooth and loving it very much. At the same time, I plan on being very careful after listening to all the trouble many have had with recovery. Hang in there Guys. We are just a few days into this big journey.
Too scared to do anything with mine, stock N900T.

I like every other person who was experiencing the Bootloops of death tried everything to get the phone working again - once it started I could not get past the bootloops regardless of what was tried - I ended up tyring to restore with ODIN but that didn't do any good - and once I had done that, I only had stock recovery - I could boot into Stock recovery - but couldn't do anything to get the phone to actually boot up. I have heard talk from others who said they think it was KNOX locking up the phone - others said it was patitions that were bad - I have no idea - but anyway - the only option I had was to return the phone. I am only grateful they gave me a new one. And no, I didnlt have any OG notes - not even sure what they are...? Go into the QA section and you can read all about the problems I and others have had - and it not just a few people - it is a pretty significant number...
You said you bricked the note I (og note as I was referring to) I was talking about that the whole time, not referencing the note 3 whatsoever...

Yo!
I am now a member of this party. Currently scouting this out on the xda.
Information still seems a bit conflicted at this point.
I too am too scared to do much to the phab at this point, and am concerned about getting ROMS. Like my LTE Verizon Tab 10.1, there may be very few of usin the group, and we will have limited options but hopefully like another post said, the T mobile ROMS should work, just add the APN. With the Verizon Tab, it had different issues from the wifi versions and ROMS were hard to come by.
Is our phone different, meaning it has more LTE bands than the ATT?
Could we get a zip file to overwrite the modem files in ATT ROMS if it is?
Any way to get the APN as an executble or zip? Just to make it easier than a mistype?
I am not a dev, and not a noob, but can be absolutely completely daft at times! I use my phone, and its not a disposable toy, but can have some toy nature to it. This might be a good place to exchange information, since we probably are gonne be a small group.

Can anyone tell me if you can run the same ROMs for these two phones. I will be getting the SGH-T999V on Wind Mobile in Canada. But I'm a little concerned for developer support for this phone, in which case I may get the SGH-T999 instead. But it would be much cheaper and easier to get it from my own carrier. So if anyone can let me know typically if the Canadian version of T-Mobile Galaxy S series phones are able to run the same ROMs, it would be much appreciated.
Hey. I just got my s3 from Videotron, it is also the v model. Personally, I would wait until the Canadian versions are out. Just this noob's opinion.
I'm also wondering this, but I've seen some posts saying how the modems of the SGH-T999 and the SGH-T999V are incompatible which means that a lot of ROMs won't be shared from the T-Mobile version to the Videotron version
Does anyone know the answer to this? pls and thanks.

You are wrong. I got my T999V from Wind canada, wiped and flashed TMOUS stock ROM right over it. Its been working solid so far.
Tried a couple of other TMO ROMs also but am a stock ROM kind of guy.
Average speed of 8Mbs download and 2.25Mbs Upload in the DC area.
I intend to flash TMOUS stock modem this weekend and see if the speed would crawl into the upper 2 digits.
IMO it is essentially the same phone w/ same internals. Only reason for getting was to stick with my grandfathered $5.99 T-Zones which works PERFECTLY with the thing.

I never said they weren't the same phone. I only said that I've seen people posting around saying that if you flash a T999 ROM that changes the modem on a T999V, then you'll run into problems. Am I wrong about seeing posts by other people that the two phones have different basebands?

How do I sound like one? Saying one "is wrong" Take it easy cowboy. All I stated was my experience with the phone. No need for name calling.
On a lighter note, it seems the modem are totally different thus a Tmobile modem baseband would definitely not work on a wind or Mobility variant and would render the phone unusable. In conclusion Roms could be shared but modem/radio files can't be shared. Again I am stating my experience, "no need for anyone to wet their pants"

You could've stated your experience without starting the post with "You are wrong", period and all. Try responding to someone else stating his/her experience in a real life conversation with those three words before anything else and let's see how many people would think you sound like a douche. Not wetting my pants here or anything man, just sayin' that you came off sounding like a real total douche right off the bat.
But back on topic here, as soon as someone pulls the modem files off the T999V model, I'm sure a lot of the devs will update their ROMs to be completely compatible with the WIND/Videotron variant.
The majority of roms you run into will not include a radio. So when you flash the rom your radio will remain untouched.
It will be noted in the OP for the rom if the radio is included. If its not mentioned its generally safe to assume its not included.

Good to hear that T-Zones works on the T999V GS III. I have T-Zones myself and was looking at the T999V. Where you able to flash a T-mobile radio and get better speeds? You would think the T999V would hit double digit download numbers on the regular.

No no no please don't flash a tmobile radio. I did that on Friday and phone became a $500 ipod, imei was null/null and baseband was unkown. Couldn't connect to a network. Finally restored it yesterday. Currently I hit speed of about 8-11mpbs not bad for my everyday use.

if you are using cwm, make sure you have the latest version which I believe is 6.0.1.2
older versions of cwm fails to flash cm10 on sgs3 with jellybean baseband
Just install TWRP and use that instead. Not saying CWM is bad but TWRP for me has been a much more pleasant experience
Looking to remove all bloat/Rogers crapware.... Better battery/performance always appreciated. I just got the phone today, I'm about to look around.... But if anyone can suggest a rom, I'd appreciate it
Thx
Anyone? Thx
Well theres not a whole lot of ROMS yet and Diet ICS is partly based off the Rogers rom so if you wanted to try a ROM I'd say try Diet. However, I'd suggest rooting your device and just removing bloat yourself for now.
Do you have a new thread up on redflag yet about the Rogers model you have? I read your i9100 last year and i9300 this year.
You probably know this but the i9300 has a lot more development at the moment so don't be shocked seeing only a few roms here and there. It will take time as it always does on the variants.
Not yet, I just grabbed this device last night because the price was right.... I just unlocked it now.... Now Rogers boot screen, so I guess it's just uninstalling apps? I'll give that a go, thx

Yours has a Rogers boot screen when you boot the phone up? I got mine at launch and it doesn't have any boot screen other than the Samsung screen that comes up. Just curious if in fact it does have Rogers branding during boot.
The problem right now flashing ROMs is that really only the AT&T ones work and you may end up losing the ability to turn off LTE since AT&T removed that ability. Also, you may end up with AT&T boot screen. I gotta tell you, I love LTE but I hate variants. lol. Miss my i9300 but don't miss the HSPA only connection which was very slow downtown

Note II Owners, Developers, & XDA Members:
I briefly mentioned this in another, related thread. However, considering how unique and specific this is, I thought it best to create a thread dedicated to it. Furthermore, I am fully aware of just how counterintuitive this is. As a matter of fact, there was just an article on XDA News this week that discussed doing the exact opposite. So, without further adieu, here's my question.
Has anyone tried flashing an I317 (AT&T Note II) ROM onto an N7100/N7105 with an N7100/N7105 modem? I know it seems counterintuitive, but what if you really wanted an AT&T Note II, complete with all the stupid AT&T crapware, but still wanted an international IMEI? Anybody tried this yet?
Now, before a flood of criticism comes my way, let me save you the trouble. You're right. It makes much more sense to flash an N7100 ROM onto an I317 instead of vice versa. However, there are a few AT&T-specific features that are included in the I317's stock ROM that I would like to explore on my N7100. So if anyone has any experience or good advice to help get me going in the right direction, I would REALLY appreciate it. Thank you for taking the time to read this. You have my gratitude.
Thank you,
Ed (Mister_Mxyzptlk)

I want to do this too
AT&T cannot (or WILL NOT) correctly provision unlocked phones so I can't get 4G speeds with my N7100 international Note 2 - haters! But the saleslady told me if I could get it to broadcast to the network as the SGH-i317 it would automatically pick up the 4G network. I have a little flashing experience from my Samsung Captivate, but isn't there a way to go in and change the network settings without rooting?
I think it would only work with the N7105 since the two phones are pretty much identical hardware wise. That being said, you'd need to grab an SGH-I317 ROM, run it through dsixda's Android Kitchen (making sure to extract the CSC as well during the working folder set up process), then delete modem.bin from the root of the working folder, then build the ROM - that would be the bare minimum required to take an AT&T ROM and make it flashable to an N7105 (because if you flash the modem, you're screwed and will need to restore the proper modem).
And look into making proper EFS NV item backups, along with the mk9efs partitions.
just upgraded to att note 4. i was using my rooted s4 with my appradio and AR unchained successfully. i was having an issue getting the phone rooted at first due to the software update carrying an updated kernel. i ended up flashing the s4 with the previous kernel version, which allowed me to then root the phone with towel root.
so my question is, why can't this same thing be done with the note 4?? my understanding is the s4 had a locked bootloader as well. i am not an expert on this stuff, but it seems to me that this should be possible with the note 4. i really just want to be able to continue use of AR unchained with the note 4 so i can get full mirroring in my vehicle.

That is a really good question. I'm a newb so quite uninformed but my one guess is maybe there's something really device-specific about kernels, so a device won't boot enough to be rootable, say crashes before it can.
But that's a good idea and something worth trying at least. We have images from AT&T phones and the T-Mobile phone, so the ingredients might already be there.

Yes Kernals are device specific. A S4 Kernal will not work properly (if at all) in a Note 4.
Ok, device specific kernel makes sense. I suppose I wasn't implying that the same kernel would work for the note 4, but more of just a suggestion as to how a root may be possible by manipulating the kernel to be note 4/root compatible.
I have the Note 4 developer edition. You must have root before anything can be started on the retail version.

Hi Guys,

But the camera app isn't updated and after updating it doesn't work, the original Samsung keyboard doesn't work properly, there is no private mode in it & message app doesn't work either.
So looking for a Note 7 ROM that contains less bugs.

If your using Sprint service, I agree with @JAMRZ69, the UN7 rom by tx_dbs_tx was made specifically for Sprint.
But feel free to try others to, as long as they have a sprint fix.
Also try to apply AlternateSmsMmsSendingFix_UN7_Hybrid_by.txdbstx to any of the roms you try, as it might help with sprint service. It's on his thread.
As far as private mode goes, i don't think any note7 ports have it. I could be wrong about this part though.
Thanks guys,
I will surely try this ROM and post my feedback.
BTW, is it just me or do you guys also feel that Sprint carrier phone has very less Custom ROMS compared to other variants..
Also lucky are those who have international variants because I've seen ROMs that have almost 0 bugs..

Yes, I can agree with that. I'm kinda lucky in that apect,as I'm unlocked using gsm service (cricket). So it's easier for me to get the other roms working.
To explain why, from what i understand as I'm not a sprint customer, but from what I've studied here. Sprint is one of the hardest carrier's to get working, as they have an extra layer of software to connect to their service, in a sense! Plus Also the predominant service, worldwide is GSM. So there are more GSM roms and it's easy to get a certain gsm rom to work with another gsm provider, and also it isnt super hard to get cdma roms to work with gsm. BUT it is difficult to get GSM roms to work with cdma, especially Sprint because of their setup.
Hope that gives you some insight! At least this is how i understand it!
Plus also, there were actually a lot of sprint roms, they're just older lollipop or not being further developed. This is because the device is aging and all the devs moved on to another device. That's why we must be grateful for the continued development of roms on this device from these great developers. Hopefully some young learning devs like me can keep it going. But I'm just am old dog learning new tricks!

Yes, I can agree with that. I'm kinda lucky in that apect,as I'm unlocked using gsm service (cricket). So it's easier for me to get the other roms working.
To explain why, from what i understand as I'm not a sprint customer, but from what I've studied here. Sprint is one of the hardest carrier's to get working, as they have an extra layer of software to connect to their service, in a sense! Plus Also the predominant service, worldwide is GSM. So there are more GSM roms and it's easy to get a certain gsm rom to work with another gsm provider, and also it isnt super hard to get cdma roms to work with gsm.

I am using an unlocked sprint phone myself.. Would that also allow me to flash custom ROMs which are for other GSM variants? If that's the case, then I can get hands on some really good ROMs.

Yes, how it usually works is, you install the rom, then you need to install a separate kernel for your device (in most cases they'll suggest the Ram kernel), Then you'll need a data fix. Which usually can be found, or you make one.
If you try a rom and have trouble, I can try to help you with making a fix. They're pretty simple for gsm service. What I've found out is, to stick with installing sprint kernel, but since we use gsm, you can use a tmobile data fix most of the time.

Thank you so much for making this easy for me, because I was only searching for Sprint ROMs.
Now that I know I can install any CUSTOM ROM on my unlocked SPRINT NOTE 4. Can you recommend me any good ROM?

Omg, there are so many options. It's hard for me to say. I have a few post on Sprint section, giving my opinion, explaining some different roms. But it was just comparing newer Sprint roms. When you bring in the international thread, there's just so many options. And all of them are good. Its gonna come down to what works for you. Browse some of the current work going on, and try one. If you don't like after a trial run, try another. If anything, it'll give you xp flashing your device.
But just to name ones that I've actually had running, here's a list in no particular order:
Enhanced
Norma
Nemesis
Dr Keaton
Nameless
Auroa
Emotion
Resurrection
Lineage
Just off the top of my head. That's not counting the ones one the Sprint thread like, UN7 and Dtux.
Read, do some research, look at screenshots and pick one.
Once you pick one and if have trouble getting going with data fix. Let me know I'll try help!
Happy flashing!
Remember, it has to be a Snapdragon Rom.
im curious if anyone has found a nice rom to put on the N4, I just got a replacement the other day and im hoping to load something fun onto it. It came with marshmallow 6.0.1...
the last thing i had was UN5 running, im a little afraid to try UN7 knowing that development has stopped for it..
