You would need to find an RUU update for AT&T.
I just looked at the RUU collection and it looks like there is none for it unfortunately.
Search the web though. Might get lucky!

[Q] Using Captivate Glide in Europe?

As there seems no progress from the Samsung side to get the Captivate Glide to Europe, I thought about just buying one online from the USA. The question is whether it will work
From the specs it should support the european GSM and UMTS frequencies just fine. The AT&T branding is something I can live with, if it does not mean the device is locked to AT&T
So just to be sure: will the Glide work in Europe with my Vodafone.DE SIM?
Please say yes
You have to unlock it... sorry

And the Rogers version from Canada?
Or is the AT&T version easy to unlock?
Both are easy, just use the Galaxy S unlock app in the market!

Use the one by helroz, I used it on 3 different SGS devices and working. And the good thing is, you can re-lock the device just by re-flashing the stock ROM.

I've used the helroz app to unlock four of the original Captivates, but on my Glide it reboots during step two. I've rolled back to busybox 1.17.1 and I've checked the read/write permissions of the efs folder but it reboots the phone each time and the phone is still showing up locked. Any advice?

Using Samsung Captivate Glide in Germany
Hello,
I got a Samsung Captivate Glide from the US and an unlock code from eBay Member american_unlocker. Works like a charm. Now I use the Captivate Glide with the E-Plus network in Germany. There are of course some problems with the software. Some of the AT&T Software doesn't work without a AT&T Number. The Media Hub doesn't work either. And google books also can't find a lot of books. Thats a problem of the German IP. But all other things are very fine.

Try flashing the Rogers kernel and ROM and see if it is better for you. The A&T specific software you can ignore since it is bloatware.
Hello,
thanks yes I will do some ROM flashing now! Android is really great and for Linux users not so difficult to understand !
Yes the AT&The stuff is really irritating. Hopefully tethering will work then.
I purchased a AT&T Samsung Captivate Glide and got the unlock code from cellunlocker.net
Took 5mins to get the unlock code emailed to me and cost $28.99 USD. Could of got one cheaper on eBay but alot say they will only mail as email is against eBay policy.

You should definitely try Rogers ROM. AT&T ROM doesn't allow you to select GSM networks manually and you may have problems when roaming.
Where and how did you guys bought the Glide? Can you get it shipped to Europe?

[Q] ATT Samsung Galaxy S3 Tmobile Sim

Hello everybody, I am currently planning on coming to Tmobile from Att and I have a unlocked Samsung Galaxy S3 from ATT. I know it will work in terms of service, but my question is when I come to flash roms, would I flash them from the Tmobile section of XDA? Or the ATT section of XDA?
The phone originally being ATT with Tmobile Sim card was really throwing me off and I didn't want to do any thing stupid.
Thank you so much for your time.

After inserting a Tmobile sim card into your UNLOCKED phone you will be able to flash
any of the roms here in the Tmobile thread as well as in the AT&T thread.
If you flash a AT&T rom the only thing you need to do to make it work properly is to
change the APN (Access Point settings) in the phone to be "T-Mobile US".
The phone can do that automatically by going into:
Settings>more settings>mobile networks>Network operators>Select automatically and select "select automatically"
and it will find that you have a Tmobile sim and it will change the apn to reflect that.
The phone will work just fine either way, however there is one main difference between
the roms found in the AT&T thread and this Tmobile thread.
The difference is when using Tmobile roms which are not ported from other carriers you
will have built-in wifi calling as an option when using the Tmobile roms.
Other than that you will not notice much of any difference at all.
Good Luck!
I bought a new SS S3 and ordered it for Tmobil network, but instead recieved a ATT phone...
SGH-I747
Everything works fine, and its not unlocked that I know of, but the whole reason I bought the phone was to use the wifi calling option of T-mobil, this att phone doesnt have that option.
Am I screwed? Should I send it back for a t-mobil phone or is there a simple way to update this phone to T-mobil and get the option of wifi calling from T-mobil.?

Hey robomas1. Would you be interested in trading your AT&T s3 for a brand new T-Mobile s3? I have a similar situation as yourself and got a T-Mobile version galaxy s3 but I wanted an AT&T phone as that's what carrier I use.

When you are flashing any custom roms after you get your Tmobile sim chip you should flash the
Tmobile Touchwiz Jellybean 4.1.2 custom roms for the very best results.
If you do flash an AT&T cwm/twrp flashable custom rom you will find that even though the phone will
work fine you will loose the free Wifi calling feature in the phone if it's not flashed with a tmobile rom.
Flashing the official Odin flash Tmobile firmware on an AT&T phone even if it's unlocked and rooted will
cause the phone not to be able to make or receive any phone calls.
The reason for this is that all the official Tmobile Samsung Odin flash firmware contain a modem/radio image which
is not compatible with an AT&T phone even if it's unlocked and rooted but none of the Tmobile or AT&T CWM/TWRP
flashable stock or custom roms contain the modem/radio image file which means you can flash them without any issues.
Good luck!

As far as just joining to trade phones, I am genuine. I read the forums regularly and finally joined. This forum helped me to unlock my T-Mobile galaxy s3. However, using the tmobile phone, I can't run the update, as the unlock does not hold after and my AT&T sim no longer works.
That's my reasoning for wanting to trade for an AT&T galaxy s3.

Just curious, what do you mean the unlock doesn't hold? Once unlocked it should remain so whether you flash a rom, firmware, mod, etc.

Well I had to flash back to stock rom to unlock the phone. I have avoided running the network update, guess was afraid that it wouldn't work. I really didn't want to have to flash it again and have to unlock it and be back where I started. So it should be fine to update, should cause no issues amd run fine with AT&T sim still?
Thats what you're saying right?
Thanks for info.
As I understand it, that is correct. Once its unlocked, you can Odin flash firmware, recovery flash roms, flash modems, etc.
If it helps, Ive never seen a single thread or question where someone was relocked.

Haha. I'll post back. I'd rather not have to trade if it works fine. Other than the annoying notification, the phone operates wonderfully.
If i flash the tmobile s3 rom on my att s3 will i get the 1700mhz band? I thought an att s3 on tmobile will only get 2g/edge service. Please let me know if someone knows.

4G data on an ATT GS3

Hi
So long story short, my Tmo GS3 got stolen at my work :/
So my mom gave me her ATT GS3 cus she was up for an upgrade,
i been reading its possible to get 4G on an ATT GS3 but so far no luck,
i know i have the right APN cus i copied the one from my Nex4 to my GS3, i set the network to manual and choose Tmo, but still all i get is Edge.
Does it have to do something with the way i unlocked the phone?
I been reading it has to be factory unlock and i unlocked mine by dialing *#197328640# and doing the required steps.
Can anyone help me with this?
Maybe you should try posting in the ATT S3 forums? I'm pretty sure that most people here have the TMO variant, while you are looking for tweaking of the ATT variant.

Don't flash a T-Mobile modem, it will brick. T-Mobile and AT&T use different frequencies for hspa+ in most places, and the AT&T version doesn't have the hardware to pick up the most used T-Mobile frequency I believe. So you're probably stuck with edge

You ARE stuck on edge.... I know it sucks. unless you are in a refarming area http://www.airportal.de/ , (major cities) your AT&T S3 1900/2100Mhz high speed data (4G) band will not work on T-Mobile's 1700/2100Mhz networks. I would sell it on e-bay or craigslist and got your T-mobile S3 again. or get the T-Mobile S4 after you sell your att S3 :cyclops:

What i desire to do is move it to straight talk. because Verizon does have signal at my house. So from this point, is there any way to get this Galaxy S4 to see the Verizon towers and work on the Straight talk network using those Verizon towers?

Can't be done. T-Mobile is GSM, Verizon is CDMA, incompatible networks.
Straight Talk resells service for the major carriers but for Sprint and Verizon, who are CDMA carriers/networks, you have to get phones compatible with CDMA to use on Straight Talk and vice versa for T-Mobile and AT&T.
ok how about this

Neither the T-Mobile nor AT&T variant will work on Verizon. Period. There isn't an unlock you can do, no ROM you can flash, no special code you can put in to change that fact.
For ST or Net10 to use the Verizon towers you need a CDMA phone, which the M1919 S4 is not. As was mentioned in the post above mine, you DO have the option to run off of T-Mobile or AT&T networks either through the respective carriers or use those towers via Net10 or Straight Talk; but using the Verizon towers in any way is impossible with the particular device you purchased.

Where'd you buy it? I bought mine from TMO and was told I can return it within 30 days for a full refund. As others have posted, you can't do what you want with that phone, period.
Edit: Reread your original post. If you have to have Verizon then the phone you bought won't work. Just like a AM radio won't pick up FM stations. It's that simple. Take it back to Walmart and get a refund. BUT, if you can live with using T-mobile away from home and have wifi at home you can get a T-Mobile plan and use wifi calling and internet access at home, and the TMO network elsewhere. You want to use wifi at home anyway because it doesn't count towards data or calling usage. It's all seamless, so there's no problem using it that way.
Dude seriously I find it hard to believe you don't have Wi-Fi in your home. Because if you do, your problems are solved. Your phone supports Wi-Fi calling and messaging (SMS/MMS). This is why I switched to T mobile.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe the AT&T and T-Mobile variations are able to pick up 100% of each other's bands so this argument is invalid.
