I am waiting for Mobilicity to push OTA update to Canadian version Galaxy S3 T999V, but it is not coming out yet. So I am planing to flash tmobile rom to my phone by using Odin. I know that Modem is different between T999 and T999V, but the Odin T999V rom is in one file, I do not know if it will update modem or not. If I fresh T999 rom but the modem is wrong, will my phone still boot? Can I fresh a T999V ICS modem after I install the T-mobile JB rom? Thank you!!!
I'm with Wind, but your phone is exactly the same, and I chose to install jellybean for TMO.
Use "Mobile ODIN" and not ODIN. This app will allow you be more selective with the update. Update all partitions except the modem/radio.
I don't even know if ODIN can do it, I'm sure it can, but I'm just not comfortable enough with all of ODIN's features to try different options. I have only used ODIN to install back to factory with the original firmware (all partitions including radio).
I suggest you try Mobile ODIN, but have the oem 404 firmware also available, in case you have to use ODIN to do a full recovery.
I want to flash back to stock rom 4.1(cant recall if 4.1.1 is the newest one or not) in a similar manner to how I flash to custom roms such as:
MAKE A NANDROID
Boot into recovery
Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache
Flash ROM
Reboot
I'm currently on PA ROM stable. So here are my questions
1) Can I flash like this instead of going through ODIN and losing root etc
2) Can I keep my root and flashing this like a custom rom, but in actuality a stock rom
3) If this is possible can ATT stock rom work on Roger's i747m, i suspect it would as long as i dont touch the modem. Not sure if there will be LTE issues.
I couldnt find anything on XDA or google, it seems that all stock revert it to original setting and no root.
Thanks

Really could just move media and photos to an ext sd card and Odin a stock rooted 4.1.1 ROM.
Link is under the step 2 and rooting in his thread

Well i must hang my head in shame for not being able to find this.
This is a good way of flashing a "custom" stock rom without odin and keeping root.
Have you heard of any issues (LTE or any other) with ATT stock on Canadian i747m?
THanks

You'll have to flash the stock for your carrier if you don't want issues.

It's just that I noticed this part of the forum referred to AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus, I wondered if they would be interchangeable.
A lot of the ROMs out there like CM10 and AOKP support ATT but can be ran on canadian i747m's, so thats why I was wondering if ATT stock can run ok on i747ms
EDIT: in beerdroid's link he did enter "**WARNING!** All information and attached links are for the I747 and I747M ONLY!"........so I'm going to assume that the ATT stock rom can run on i747m's without issue.

I think it would be for the most part, would just have to change the modem (I think?).
Either way, always safer to go with your carrier's.

Good find. I had forgotten about that one.
Typically, if you flash an att modem on a Canadian phone it will destroy the imei. I would think that the same would be true for Canadian modems on Att s3's.

Just wanted to put that out there. I'm on mobile app so i can't really see sigs. Appreciate the heads up
I have the sgh-i317 unlocked and working on tmobile. I wanted to flash the stock 4.1.2 firmware from tmobile, but of course I can't use the tmobile modem on the att n2 unless I want bootloops and/or loss of imei. I can unzip the tmobile stock firmware file to look and modify the content folders. So my questions is, Can I just remove the tmobile modem.bin file from the tmobile 4.1.2 zip folder and then go ahead and flash away with odin. Or better yet, can I replace the tmobile 4.1.2 modem.bin file with the att MC3 modem.bin file and flash the whole thing together in Odin. Or is my best path to just flash the whole tmobile 4.1.2 firmware (including the modem) and then right away flash the att MC3 modem and then do the reboot? Any direction and help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
... Do you only have Odin to work with?
... Are you rooted with custom recovery?
If you have a recovery, I'd find a stock cwm/twrp image for T-Mobile, then restore my modem.

Can I convert my N900T into a complete N9005..??
ROM, Kernel, Baseband (except imei )
will it support.. As I heard early there are N9005 roms that can be used on N900T. But need N900T kernel and some fix.. Without them is there any way?? Like Download stock N9005 and JUST install the rom using ODIN.. I never tried before.. And I don't want to brick my devise
Is there any one who tried it already???

There is no problem or issue in flashing a twrp/cwm flashable N9005 custom or stock rom.
Be sure to do a clean and full wipe before flashing the twrp/cwm compatible zip file rom.
After you flash the N9005 custom/stock zip file rom you will need to download and flash
the "wifi-nfc-bluetooth" fix file using twrp/cwm recovery to flash.
Here is the direct download link for the fix zip file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/Needed_Files_BT_WIFI_NFC_Flashable.zip
After the fix file is flashed you will be good to go.
The only thing you will find missing is Tmobile's "wifi calling" feature.
Everything else will/should work fine without issues.
Note: Do NOT try Odin flashing the official stock N9005 firmware!!!!!
Note: Do NOT Odin flash any N9005 modem/baseband or bootloaders.
The Tmobile baseband/modem and bootloader will work fine with N9005
twrp/cwm flashable zip file roms.
Good luck!

Thank you,
Well I actually I need this conversion because I need 3G video calling menu instead of wifi calling or voice mail button on dialer.
Because Im in a different country which can use 3G video Call (support by network)
And in this country 4G LTE only work with Band 3 (1800Mhz) supported handsets instead of North American Band 2 (1700Mhz) handsets
Here, this country its support 3G video calling and 4G LTE on N9005 (this has Band 3 support).. But not with my N900T (no band 3 support band 2, 4, 17 only)..
Thats why Im asking this (convert N900T into N9005) because these two phone have same hardware instead of different software.
And could you tell what are the reasons that Baseband/modem of N9005 not to install on N900T??
will it causes to bootloop or signal issue or something else?

The reason NOT to install baseband/modem is because every region uses
a different baseband. If you are able to make and receive calls and messages
properly right now then it means that your N9005 baseband is the proper one.
I am not sure about bootlooping with the wrong baseband but I would be that
you would not have any signal if you were to odin flash a Tmobile N900T
baseband version.
If you change to a Tmobile N900T baseband then most likely you will
not be able to make and receive calls and texting will not send/receive
messages and any other region specific application in your country will
not work properly .
The good news is that none of the twrp/cwm flashable zip file roms
contain any basebands/modems which means that most any N9005
twrp/cwm flashable rom should work fine after flashing it to a Tmobile
N900T phone. (after flashing the wifi/nfc/bluetooth fix zip file.)
So in other words regardless of which twrp/cwm flashable zip file rom
you flash it will never change your existing baseband/modem.
Good luck!

You didn't exactly answer the question. You spoke about using ODIN to add the N900T bootloader and modem to the N9005 (I don't know why anyone would want to do that for any reason that gaining WiFi calling). The original poster need this to be done the other way around by placing the N9005 bootloader and modem on the N900T. I'm in the same boat as the original poster, where I have a N900T, but T-Mobile isn't my carrier and I want to get the full N9005 modem and bootloader so that I can flash fully stock international ROMs. I'm not interested in flashable zips as they rob me of having the full experience. So far, I've flashed the N9005 SYSTEM partition onto my N900T using mobile ODIN and used the WiFi/BT fix, but I still feel that the phone can be fully converted.
I attempted to force a complete update using the desktop version of ODIN, and it produced an error when flashing "aboot", letting me know that it wouldn't simply ignore the mis-matched bootloaders.

yes that is correct!
I don't know how i stumbled onto this thread and i know it's been A while since anyone posted but you cannot flash n9005 base onto the n900t. You can however flash something like bobcat rom which will give you the video calling features as well as the other bells and whistles of an international rom. I have been running n9005 Roms for a while because they actually make my daily phone run a lot better.
What I want to know is if it is the MODEM and Bootloader that is different between the two?

I would have to guess yes, they start with the same Samsung base and then put in their modem, bootloader, all the way up to their bloatware. O would guess at the heart of the matter of you wiped the phone completely and started over that you could put the n9005 firmware on. (I'm not a dev though, but i try to learn when i have time)

Great question but way above my pay grade.
Hi guys. I have a problem like that. I have SM-N9005 Note 3. I wanna put N9005 stock rom it but Odin shows me error (aboot fail) . My phone 's baseband version is n900t but model version is n9005. So i dont put n9005 stock rom. The reason is baseband version ?
From where I will get Cwm/twrp flashable n9005 ROM
Hello, I am using a N900T model and u want to convert it to N9005.. I read all those quires in this and I don't know from where I'll get that custom recovery flashable ROM.. Please provide me the link of that.. I tried flashing N9005 stock ROM using Odin.. But it failed..
Please help..
Thank you..
If you just want a debloated KitKat Touchwiz interface, then you would stick with your stock N900T ROM and use mobile ODIN or desktop ODIN to flash only the N9005 system partition.
how to get N9005 system partition.
From where I will get system partition of N9005.. Or how will I extract only the system file from the official N9005 stock ROM.. ?? Please help..

This is easily done by downloading it from: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and copy it to your external card
You would then download and install Mobile ODIN from the Google Play store. Using this, you would select only the SYSTEM partition after selecting the file from the external card.
It makes sense to wait for the official T-Mobile lollipop ROM that's been released and debloat it once rooted.
I'll be doing this shortly when I download it.
so, the main topic
is not possible to write only n9005 modem to the n900t?
I have cyanogenmod 12.1 and this converted my phone into a n9005
the wifi works until phone lose the signal, when signal is back, wifi stop working and seeing any wifi spot
I read something about a WIFI NFC fix, but am not sure if this would be necessary on the cm 12.1, but I will give it a try.
I noticed this tmobile phone modem, wont work very stable on 2gonly networks like here in my country (CUba), i was planning to write the n9005 modem only to the n900t and see if phone would become more stable, but after reading this thread, I think I will not succed.
what would happen if I write n9005 QCN file?
Well topic was dead for some time now. I hope someone can bring some clarity. I got N900T, but would like to convert to 9005.
Can someone explain steps that I should take to do that. Is N900T has same hardware as 9005? Does that mean that LTE bands are locked by software?
I soft bricked my i747m with Telus and I need to flash the stock ROM via ODIN but I'm not sure which file to use. Can someone point me in the right direction and possibly give me a link? Thanks.
What bootloader is on the phone? You can use any stock ROM from sammobile.com as long as the ROM from sammobile contains the same or newer bootloader than the one currently installed on the phone.
I believe the latest Telus is FOB1
