To Canadian owners of the I747 GS3, welcome to your new home! XDA has officially added your devices to this forum! As such, let's all work to make the moderators' and developers' jobs easier by doing the following:
Threads: Would all of you who have started threads in the previous forum that relate to Rogers, Bell, or Telus, please indicate in bold in the thread title that it should be moved here and specify which section you want it moved to.
Update - 07/30/2012: There are still a number of Rogers/Bell/Telus specific threads in the old section without any direction to move them. If you are the OP to any of these threads, please edit the titles to reflect which carrier and section they apply to so that they will be moved to the appropriate new section. Time is running out so please do this asap, as per this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803287
Development: Being added to this forum does not mean that anything has magically changed from the previous forum relating to compatibility of your device. If, for whatever reason, an AT&T mod was not safe to flash before, it is still not safe to flash! Continue to read the OP, search, and post in the thread, if you are unsure whether something is safe to install on your device. You alone are responsible for the health of your device, so please exercise that responsibility fully.
If there is anything else that you feel should be added to this thread, or you have any questions, please feel free to either send me a PM, or post in the thread below.
This change was definitely the right decision, as most of us are already spending the majority of our time on this thread, given the almost identical nature of our phones. Looking forward to working with our US GS3 colleagues in building the great community this has the potential to be!
Excellent, thank you!
OP updated, please update titles of threads from the old section you want moved asap.
So far I see no problems with AT&T mods and rogers. Some minor issues. But would be nice to have our own section

This is our section. Without our at&t friends, development would be a 10th of what it is now. As we pretty much have the same phone, this is the best structure for all i747 owners.

That is correct. I updated, no problems, through kies. I then re-rooted using the Samsung Rom toolbox to flash cwm through Odin, and superuser through cwm. Finally, set the trip counter back to zero with the triangle away app (you can get it through Google Play). The whole process was flawless.
Update upgrades us to the latest modem, LH1, way faster lte speeds. Also some other minor ui changes to the stock messaging app and browser.

What! So upgrading will lose root access?
What per se is Samsung Rom toolbox if you don't mind me asking, is that JRummy's Rom Toolbox you're referring to?
Sounds like a bit of a process, I was so proud of myself to finally tackle installing cwm via adb. Now that was all for nothing?! Dang...care to post a few more details and links for those who are still a little shy of turning their phone into a brick? Pretty please.

don't even need to wait for it to install successfully. Sometimes a "fail" is actually a success, so if you're having problems of it flashing successfully then you should check your app drawer.. its probably in there already.

For anyone having issues reading this, here's the English translation:
AT&T ROMs work on T-Mobile phones
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987023
I flashed this AT&T ROM, and it works. You just need the T-Mobile modem. If you want to use JellyBean "gap," just look for and install it. My Internet is too slow; it doesn't let me search for it to include the link. Sorry guys. Just letting you know that AT&T ROMs work on our phone. Be safe and back up first.
Now, as far as this post goes, I'm not sure why it was posted in the first place, seeing as the same ROM is available natively on the T889.
1. Lmao
2. Thank you for that.
3. Is this really the case? I thought I read that several of the Roms for the AT&T note were not compatible with the T889.

Well actually to be fair, the OP posted this before that ROM was available in the T889 forums (and it's actually not native for the T889, it's the same exact rom that was first posted in the AT&T section and it's from an AT&T build)
But yes it does work on our T889's fine! I'm using it now, it's flyin

Hi I am new here and I would like to root my device to make it my own and get rid of all the apps that came with it, but I have a few questions.
1, Once I am rooted which rom is the best for my AT&T GN2?
2, Will I still be able to update my GN2?
3, What happens if I messed up during the rooting process?
4, And how often do I need to change roms?
5, Is rooting the way to go?
I am going to be dead honest here, I am a girl and some of the steps of rooting I dont quite understand, if someone can help me explain things I will be so happy.

1. Try each rom out and find out what YOU like. I personally use CleanRom 4.0.5 with no problems.
2. Why update when custom roms are better than stock roms?
3. If you mess up thats on you. But its not to hard root. I rooted and installed a custom rom before leaving the att store.
4. If you find a rom that you like you will most likely flash a new rim once its updated.
5. Yes rooting has many advantages. Ex. Wifi tethering, removing bloatware, custom roms, etc.....

Another question, if I root it with Exynos Abuse Apk do I need to install a rom aswell? sorry to ask too many questions
No. You can be rooted using the "stock" rom you are using now out of the box. You will have the ability to delete apps using the app mentioned before.
If and when you do decide to install new roms. You will have to install a recovery. Which that exynos abuse apk does not include.
A recovery is a whole other thing.
For recovery I use twrp.

I'll be honest, this smells of a "phone won't turn on" thread in the near future. You're not ready to root your phone and go playing around in recovery. You might be ready to root once you'd studied up on exanose abuse and the rooting concept in general. But right now I would hold off if I were you. TBO the Gn2 runs so well out of the box that you're almost there anyway. Make sure you are confident that you will know how to do each step BEFORE you attempt to root, and are sure you have another web-enabled device so that you can come here for questions while your Gn2 is down.
Let's us know what you decide...

Yes, you will trip the Knox flag, currently no method to reset it. TWRP is fine, just do some reading about restoring backups.. If done incorrectly, you will experience what's been coined "The Brickloop"

Just root it using Odin and Chainfires auto-root method, I'm not familiar with the custom kernel as yet, so I won't comment on that. Once you root, you still keep all stock functionality, just have administrative rights, so to speak. If you're not too familiar with rooting, flashing, etc.. I wouldn't recommend starting right now with the Note 3, still early in the aftermarket development stage..

Considering all of the challenges that people have faced with Fierce bootloops - and for a while no way way to fix them, this is a situation where you would do very well to do some reading before you do anything. There are two root methods currently both are outlined in the Original Android Development Section for the TMOBILE NOte 3 - you can download everything you need from there - and I think it would be very helpful for you to read thru what others have done and experienced before you do anything - then you can make your own decision about which root method is best for your needs.
I don't mean to sound sanctimonious or anything but if there ever was a time that reading thoroughly first was a good thing to do - this is one of those times..good luck

What did my post have to do with your asking for a link? Well, I didn't want to be this direct but If you simply opened the Original Android Development thread and took less than a minute to read, you wouldn't need to ask for a link. You would see that there were two threads available that offered details that would give you exactly what you wanted. Two different ways to root.
In fact, in less time than it took you to write your post and wait for an answer, you would have had exactly what you were looking for.
My response to you was a gentle reminder that reading is a good thing.

The fact that you took all this time to write all that and ridicule me is ridiculous when it would have been easier for you to have just been nice and post the link like the last guy did. .. Sorry I didn't see it however easy it was, but that's why we are here to help one another. ..so please next time either don't comment at all and let someone else who wants to help, help, or just help someone out. ..It goes a long way and makes this place more civil. ..

I am sorry you felt I was ridiculing you. That was not my intent at all. THis forum is loaded with people who have have had major issues when flashing a recovery which is often the next step after rooting - there are more reports of people who have had to return their note 3 to TMOBILE than I can remember seeing on a single phone in a very long time. My Suggestion for you to read was purely intended to help you - it is easy to let others do the work for you - when often trouble could have been avoided by being more educated. What struck me as odd was the fact that it was so easy to find the link you were looking for - if you only opened one section of the forum in the Original Android Development you would have found it. But that is besides the point.
My comments were always supportive - and intended to help you. Period. I am sorry that you are so caught up in the " I want what I want when I want it "- that you can't see that. XDA is a forum designed for people to learn more about their phones and to ultimately try to get more out of them than you can get in a Stock phone...I have been in your shoes before and done exactly what you did when asking for a link - and have gotten a similar reply to the one I gave you. I am grateful it happened to me because it forced me to take a step back - do a little reading - learn more about the challenges others have faced and in the end, avoid those same problems myself.
Once more, I am Sorry you feel I was ridiculing you - couldn't be farther from the truth - I wish you well and hope you enjoy your NOTE3. Have a nice day my friend.

No problem. .. Just to let you know that thread doesn't show up in my app which I always use.. It only showed up on my computer. .. That's why I didn't see it. ..
After I rooted the system it said modified and ota wouldn't work. .. so I installed xposed framework and then wanam xposed module and there is a setting to set system to original and that works for ota...

I may be wrong but I thought that using that option in Wanam Exposed was cosmetic only. It changes that to Official in Settings - but doesn't really effect how your phone is recognized as being 'altered" - LIke I said, I might be wrong, but that is what I heard. You might check with someone who knows more about this than I do
Good luck

That's what I thought also but when I tried to go to the ota update setting it told me that this is a modified system and when I use that module then it told me that there was no further updates... so I guess that made it work. ..

This is true.... for the N7105, N7105XXUFNE7 firmware.
The i317 4.4.2 is not.

Its also true for the i317m. Which is identical to the i317 except the bloat. And being in India i doubt it would matter if it had At&t bloat VS Rogers/Bell ect

Understand.... Just merely pointing out that you told OP to search for model number of phone, which guessing is SAMSUNG-SGH-I317, based on signature.
Way cool the i317m is online. Should mean the i317 should be up sometime soon,

My Note is unlocked, and I'm running it on T-Mobile, so I will NEVER get the chance to update. So, I took it upon myself to update via this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2589891
Works fine for me!

GG, see. The thing is no one here has AT&T. My family is all T-Mobile or MetroPCS. I'm screwed until I find a friend that has AT&T.
Guys does anyone have any news as to how long sammobile gonna take for the kitkat att capture ? Is it a better idea to just hit the deodexed by dicksteele till it does surface?

might be a long wait... but you never know. Last i317 AT&T firmware posted [on Sammobile site] was in Jan2013 which was the official MA4. Seems like every update since [i.e., MC3, MK6] have been appended "updates" to current firmware. IMO, one our our stellar developer's packages is your best option.
Thanks for the quick reply, yeah I guess sticking with the xda devs sweet roms is the way to go, and with so many tw roms out already there is always so much choice
