Tmobile on verizon note 3

I have a verizon note 3. I am on tmobile now. Using a jelly bean rom, I have everything working except for wi fi calling? Anyone know how to get it? or how to load a tmobile rom on the verizon note 3?
I tried loading a tmobile rom but the wifi would not connect?
Thanks,
Kevin

Unless I'm way off here, Verizon uses cdma where tmibile us gsm. How is your Verizon note even working on T-Mobile to begin with?

where you able to get wifi calling? do you have a link to the rom you used?
thanks

Verizon has world phones, that have some GSM capabilities, they also have SIM cards, because LTE is GSM tech and SIM is part of LTE specs, so yeah it should work at least on some frequencies. The only ROM that has WiFi calling, as far as I know is T-mo. There was some guy claiming he loaded pretty much all different ROM's he could get into his Note and it worked, but don't remember details, do search maybe in International Note 3 forum and see if T-mo is mentioned. Not sure if you care, but right now loading ROM's could trigger Knox flag, so maybe research this before hand and I have a feeling soon we may have some new breakthrough, when loading any ROMS is no problem, but not sure if Knox flag can ever be reversed, once tripped, there is no way for now.
BTW I'm not sure if you're aware, once you have WiFi calling, you can call home from around the World on WiFi for free. Don't let other people call you, but you can make free international calls home as long as you're on WiFI. It does not work for local calls. That is outside the new international calling plan T-mo has.

My Verizon Note 3 worked somewhat on T-Mobile
I had my Verizon Note 3 functional on T-Mobile for about a week but ended up buying a used T-Mobile Note 3 after having random service issues. With the correct APN settings on the V Note 3, 4G worked and I was able to browse just fine but the phone was not reliable. Quite often after making a call, it would switch away from 4G (sometimes to Edge) and would take minutes to re-establish a reliable data connection on 4G. During this time, whether it was possible to make another call was a hit or miss. Even when it said 3g, or Edge, calling was sometimes not possible. Usually I would wait a while before trying again. Data was in and out at times. I was on the latest official Android release: 4.4.4. And other users with T-Mobile phones were not having similar issues in the same location so I know it was not location specific.
I thought about downgrading to another rom and rooting, then enabling LTE band 4, but I wasn't sure that would fix the service-related issues. Now with the T-Mobile version, I have zero service problems. We had a similar experience on T-mobile with a Verizon Galaxy S5 and after getting the T-Mobile version, the problems were fixed.
So, IMO, the V Note 3 does work on GSM networks like T-Mobile. How reliable it works compared to the other Carrier specific models is debatable.

Verizon sm-605v on tmobile

I won a Verizon N10 contract free. I want to use T-Mobile for data. How do I go about it?
I rooted with towelroot and everything seems good. (Xposed/wanam). I ordered the tmo data starter kit. Do I just install the card and make sure network is set to global?
My other minor issue has been getting it to connect to my 5g wifi. I have tried to change the channel but it still won't find it.
Thanks

Sorry no clue about Verizon to Tmobile. As for wifi..it might be your router not sure. Mine (Same tab as yours) has 5g and finds it and am on it now.
You you please post what you find about going from Verizon to tmobie? I would REALLY like to know if that works. Thanks

Yeah I have to update my router firmware so I might see if that helps.
Here is some info I found on the 607, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2780422. Apparently the Verizon 607 is sim unlocked.

Okay I got my sim card today. Interesting that the data sim kit comes with a phone number. I am going to have to look into that for kicks.
I needed up getting tmobile to work on the Verizon 605v.
After I inserted the sim card. I powered on. >
Turned off wifi >
Setting > mobile data > global.
You have to change the APN. Easy to Google t mobile app settings.
I used the fast tmobile which is for lte.
Then restart.
So far it works. I haven't done anything much except make sure it is working. I will check more this week and update.
I have set mobile data off when at the house and will turn it on when I am out.
3 GB and unlimited music for $10/month for a year is looking like a great deal plus I can always tether to my Verizon phone when needed.

Can't get my Verizon Note 4 (n910v) on T-Mobile. No service.

Hello everyone,
I was using the Verizon note 4 on tmobile until I got the 5.0.1 lollipop update. Now it won't register on tmobile at all, and there is an "x" next to the signal meter, indicating that it isn't getting any service. I triple checked my apn settingssettings, network modes, restarting. Nothing works. Did the lollipop update simlock the phone?

Anything is possible culprit..I would take out the battery and make sure the Sim card is inserted properly..and if that doesn't work do a factory reset..

Getting TMobile 4G_LTE Working Again
Hi,
I had the same issue with my Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910V) edition. I needed to go back in and add the APN for TMobile US LTE, then all was well. I have included snap shots of mine for reference. Also, make sure you set your "Network" to Global.
Best of Luck

In my situation, I'm a tmobile user but had the chance to get a verizon note 4 at a cheaper price. At this rate though, I may just sell it and get a tmobile version.

Has anyone figured out the issue?

I got another N910V with 5.0.1 today, it has the same problem (not being able to use other carriers' sim cards). I'm pretty sure the 5.0.1 locks the phone. WTF Verizon??

Sorry you're having that issue. I bought a Verizon Note 4 on swappa the other day that already had 5.0.1 and Build ID ending in BOAF. I was able to get signal on it, no problem. Downgraded to 4.4.4 and service was still available. Have your SIM card replaced at a Tmobile Store to see if that resolves the issue. I'm curious as to your APN settings and whatnot.

Honestly I don't think they did that .. I tested many sim cards and it works all the time.. try maybe new sim?

I have a verizon note 4 and a T-Mobile one too which i bought because of not 100% reception.. My friend updated to lollipop he has verizon note 4 service is working perfectly , try keeping the network mode at lte cdma for little while and then go back to global , or try an at&t sim card in it .. if your phone just got bad esn T-Mobile will not work on it too as T-Mobile do not let any bad esn phone run on their network .. i am 100% sure lollipop has nothing to do with it
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app

Well I can't say for sure either, but there are too many people having the same issue (no service on tmobile after upgrading to 5.0.1) to deny that 5.0.1 has anything to do with the problem. Also, the ones that are saying lollipop has nothing to do with sim lock, can you guys check if you're using 5.0 or 5.0.1? The ones that are saying that they stopped being able to use the N910V on tmobile are all on 5.0.1.
EDIT: If you're on lollipop + tmobile on a n910v, can you tell me if you're using the new ISIS sim card?

trouble with note 4 mobile hotspot
Need help, when my verizon note 4 was root, I was able to turn on xposed tether for mobile hotspot. I was able to connect other devices to it, but had limited connectivity meaning no internet. I tried everything but had no idea. I almost want to give up note 4 even love it. Is it because xposed tether does not work on note 4? I have same issue with foxi. Is sqlite editor better, can someone help me with setting for sqlite for Verizom note 4 to try? Thank you

Has anybody been able to get it to work on metropcs? I get an x next to the signal bars. I used the fast.metropcs.com apn and i tried with the 3 network modes ... I was able to get it to work on tmobile but not metro

Found solution.
For those having issues with not service when changing SimCards after 5.0x.
The solution is http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
Just disable Verizon activation (VzwActivationAgent apk) app. NO ROOT NEEDED
I also disabled some Knox services that where already pre-marked.
Now I have service with T-mobile Sim and don't have the annoying "unkown sim" message.
The tool is created by @gatesjunior so, show your appreciation on his thread.

I followed the instructions and also disabled "VzWActivationAgent.apk", still unable to get TMobile sim to work. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Can I flash T-mobile ROM on Verizon Note 4 910V

-I am no longer using Verizon anyway
-Can I get T-mobile ROM from Sammobile and Flash it on Verizon Note 4 910V AND continue using the phone on T-mobile network
-I am already using Tm on 910V but Verizon is terribly slow at delivering 5.1.1
-TIll today I don't get it
-I don't want to deal with Verizon anymore + Verizon ROM comes with tons of Verizon bloatwares
-More:
-http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/development/rom-jasminerom-v1-0-t3113771 >> this seems like a promising ROM no bloatwares from VZ
-Can Note 4 910V owners flash ROMs? (as in; I DON'T have the DEVELOPER EDITION, I just have the normal retail 910V - where one gets from Verizon retail store)
-I don't actually need ROOT, I just sick of Verizon's way of handling software; it's slow to update; and they don't seem to care

Not going to happen, probably ever, it seems.

....................all I had to do was pop in the t-mobile sim in and make the suggested setting adjustments. In my area I got 4g on my sm-n910v on the t-mobile network. No problem

I'm in the same situation can we flash a tmobile note 4 rom onto the verizon note 4 910v with no issues?

TMobile Note4 ROM on Verizon Note4?
I too am in this dilemma of wanting to switch to TM from VZ because my VZ 4G has gotten so slow compared to TM.
TM has told me that they are not sure if my SM-N910V will work on TM yet it works on ATT. My Note4 IS unlocked.
I tried popping in a friends SIM at TM store and the rep changed the settings, but it just would NOT connect. Of course he only wanted to sell me one of their phones.
I just bought this Note4 Oct 2015 from a third party and it works fine, but lately VZ is sucking HARD!

Any news hear?

It WILL work. Sounds like they just wanted to sell you a phone I've been using TM on my 910V for the last 4 months with absolutely no issues whatsoever. With the T-Mobile sim card inserted, go to Settings -> Network Settings -> Access Point Names (I'm on CM13 so the names might be slightly different)
From there, create a new APN, then name it whatever you'd like. Enter information into the fields from T-Mobile's website here: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-2090
Then, save the APN and select it in the APN list by toggling the radio button. It should work just fine now.

Thanks. I use the SM-N910T and SM-N910V.
I've loaded sooo many custom ROMs on the Verizon Note 4 that work fine with T-Mobile.
IF I load a semi-stock or stock Verizon ROM, the device refuses to work on T-mobile.
(No matter what APNs are used.) My guess is the newer BL.
This is just ANOTHER way our lovely US carriers grab us by the balls and say, "Your device is Unlocked and Free to use on any other CDMA/GSM carrier."
Don't you believe them!
On another note; Has anyone been able to Unlock the BL on ATT models yet???

Out of curiosity, what bootloader firmware were you running when you had trouble with this? I had stock ROM + CPG2 and didn't have any issues using T-Mobile.

Hey guys, so I successfully unlocked boot loader, and flashed twrp. I Am now flashing the hybrid firmware. I will then boot to recovery, wipe, and flash a T-Mobile Rom. Correct? By the way I use cricket service. Thanks

Its more about the radio inside and which frequencies it uses......so if tmobile doesnt use a bandwidth that verizon does or your phone doesnt pick up what tmobile puts out you will have a useless phone......that is if you can find tobile rom that will even boot on your phone....some phones do cross over and run on different carriers....ive personally seen an att Iphone running verizon...but every phone is different and results are sketchy depending on the area you live in due to the frequencies used are also different in different areas!.....I wish I could give you specifics for your phone and area but I just dont know that kind of info....it is available but you will have to research that! Good luck!

Verizon Note 4 to T-Mobile Note 4
I've inherited a Verizon Note 4 (SM-N910V) Retail from a grandfather who can no longer see to use it. He was on Verizon (obviously) and I am using T-Mobile. I was going to use this as my daily driver to replace my Honor 5X. Obviously, the Note 4 is a better phone and the 5X doesn't really work all that well with T-Mo's features anyways.
I've tried just inserting the sim and adding the T-Mo APN, but I can only get phone service in the Akron, Ohio area, no data. According to GSMArena here https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_4_(usa)-6758.php the phone should have Band 12 (which is supposed to be T-Mo's 4G in my area).
My goal here is two-fold: to fix the bootloader to allow rooting and remove the Verizon and Samsung bloatware, and then flash this ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/romtesting-t3380186 The Resurrection Remix ROM 5.6.8. This would "essentially" make the phone a T-Mobile phone and is supposed to allow their Wi-Fi calling feature.
The Note 4 phone I have is running Android 6.0.1, baseband N910VVRU2CQ12, and Kernal v. 3.10.40 from Sep 4, 2017.
The question is: What is the safest and easiest way to root this thing, and has anyone here used the Rez Remix T-Mobile ROM?

I've tried just inserting the sim and adding the T-Mo APN, but I can only get phone service in the Akron, Ohio area, no data. According to GSMArena here https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_4_(usa)-6758.php the phone should have Band 12 (which is supposed to be T-Mo's 4G in my area).
My goal here is two-fold: to fix the bootloader to allow rooting and remove the Verizon and Samsung bloatware, and then flash this ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/romtesting-t3380186 The Resurrection Remix ROM 5.6.8. This would "essentially" make the phone a T-Mobile phone and is supposed to allow their Wi-Fi calling feature.
The Note 4 phone I have is running Android 6.0.1, baseband N910VVRU2CQ12, and Kernal v. 3.10.40 from Sep 4, 2017.
The question is: What is the safest and easiest way to root this thing, and has anyone here used the Rez Remix T-Mobile ROM?
I've been reading through many threads that explain the process:

Flash a custom ROM and add/edit the TMO APN settings....
Verizon phones cannot use Band 12...BTW....
I've been trying for many months to see if Band 12 could be enabled, but no success.

I too am in this dilemma of wanting to switch to TM from VZ because my VZ 4G has gotten so slow compared to TM.
TM has told me that they are not sure if my SM-N910V will work on TM yet it works on ATT. My Note4 IS unlocked.
I tried popping in a friends SIM at TM store and the rep changed the settings, but it just would NOT connect. Of course he only wanted to sell me one of their phones.
I just bought this Note4 Oct 2015 from a third party and it works fine, but lately VZ is sucking HARD!

i believe phone companies only say that because they want you to buy one of there crap bloatware phones its a marketing strategy or trick to lock you into a payment plan

UDP VZW Wifi Hotspot

What is everyone's thoughts on whether there will be a way to turn on the wifi hotspot on phones that are on a grandfathered VZW Unlimited Data Plan? I think I remember hearing that one of the Nexus phones the hotspot worked out of the box without any special app's (Foxfi) or root. Thoughts?

6p works unlocked, running stock.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using XDA-Developers mobile app

I can confirm that the Nexus 6p, out of the box, will run the wifi hotspot on VZW UDP, on both 6.1 and 7.0.
I can also confirm that the Nexus 5x, out of the box will NOT run wifi hotspot on VZW UPD, without rooting and modifying build.prop (easy to do if you are bootloader unlocked).
Reports are that bootloader will be locked on Pixel for phones sold by VZW. I'm not very optimistic that wifi tether will work
I have an upgrade on VZW - which I wanted to use for Pixel, but might have to buy Pixel (or iPhone?) and trade/sell to get an unlocked Pixel, which should be bootloader unlocked, but probably won't have VZW wifi calling available.

I have one on order from Verizon and that's the first thing I'm going to try. If not I'm returning it. The Verizon Bloatware is removable so I hope it's not baked in.

The wifi calling and verizon features should work on the unlocked pixel, just as the features worked on the unlocked Motorola Nexus 6 because verizon sold their version of the Nexus 6 so it should be safe to say the unlocked pixel will work 100% as designed to and on verizon also. Google lists the Unlocked pixel works on all 4 major carriers they never listed that for the Nexus 6p I believe, so them listing it will work on all four carriers should tell you otherwise they would have to list that there may be features that will not work on some of those four major carriers. I would have to say 100% by that that everything all verizon features should work on the unlocked pixel being used on the verizon service, just as they do on the verizon version of the pixel and pixel xl.

Thanks for the replies... My wife and I fell into the Note 7 debacle so we are trying to decide if we are going to tempt fate with the "safe" Note 7's or switch to a different phone and the Pixel caught my eye and something that might be worth having. So, aside from how the reviews end up, I have to have the wifi hotspot since our phones are our only access to the internet in the area we live.
Thanks again!

i have ULD with Verizon as well. i preordered today, when the phone arrives i will definitely post my results as well!

Did you preorder from Verizon? Please update us on whether tethering works with ULD out of the box!

Sad to report...
Got the phone yesterday, I confirm that wifi hotspot does NOT work out of the box. I preordered the phone with VZW and have grandfathered ULDP with no hotspot subscription. It says please subscribe for this feature or something.?*
On another note I have read that PDANet wired USB tethering works, I have not tried this yet. Will try this weekend when I have time.

Let us know if it works.

Hotspot works, I am using it now. You have to install Network Signal refresher lite, activate it then right away switch the toggle for the system hotspot. This works on Verizon and Google purchased Pixels.

Download network signal refresher... Turn it on and immediately turn on native hotspot... This will bypass the verizon certificate

Doesn't work with the lite version. I hit refresh and immediately goto hotspot, it says there is no connection. I wait until I get LTE back and get this screen

Try tapping the hotspot button from the notification pull down right after you hit refresh.. It just worked for me

8japps is the developer of the app, make sure you downloaded that right app

Confirmed Network Signal Refresh Lite works to get native hotspot working on VZW ULDP
I tried a few more times after it failed and got it to work just like the other poster said.
Press Refresh on Network Signal Refresh and hit you all apps button and switch to your hotspot setting.
Click it and it comes up .
Slow as hell tho, but still works. Useful in a pinch!!!
Check screenshots for proof!!!

Once you get used to it, it takes just as long as FoxFI did on the Note 7 so I'm happy.

I can also confirm. Refresh, turn on hotspot from pull down menu. You'll need to edit your menu and add hotspot for easier access. My speeds appear to be normal via computer via speedofme. Peaking at 20Mbs

Has anyone had issues with hotspot turning off after 15 to 20min . Ive read in another post this is happening to alot of people

Does anyone worry this could be patched by Verizon? I'm waiting for a Google pixel because I can't afford Verizon to block my wifi tether with udp. If I knew that this would work indefinitely I would just get my phone from Verizon
