I have a galaxy s 3 but am getting ready to buy a Note 2 off contract. Since there the same hardware and same price should I go with INT version for more developer support?

I guess if you don't need LTE. The H+ N7100 one is the only one of the international ones with a lot of support. Most the International LTE guys are using AT&T roms it seems. Last time I was in the N7105 section of the international forums, there wasn't a whole lot going on.
Get the at&t version. Since the phones are the same any new update the international lte one gets we can port over easy!!!!

I have t-mobile, but if I had att I wouldn't switch just because of handset availability.
If you are out of contract you should weigh the pros and cons of each in terms of coverage in your area, pricing of comparable plans to satisfy your needs, and THEN device selection.
Plus if you wait a lil longer you can maybe get your hands on the red version!
You realise you can get the AT&T GS3 overnighted to you. You just have to call up and ask for one.
I have a new line with the one x and I'm within my 30 days maybe I'll just see if bb has them. I would switch carriers based on horrible service that att has

I wouldn't switch.. far as I know ( and correct me if I'm wrong ) the T-Mobile version of the SGSIII does NOT have LTE !! To me, that would be a waste.

It has badass hspa+ (42mbps) though which can just as fast as lte depending on location. And it doesnt kill battery like lte, so id say the tmo version is a great option..

LOL, Best Buy is not selling AT&T Galaxy S3's over the counter! I dont know where you have heard that, but you definitely haven't been following either of the 2 Official Best Buy Galaxy S3 threads.
If Best Buy does have them in stock for AT&T, which is a HUGE IF, they are saying they cannot sell them because AT&T has not announced an official release date/launch date. I know, that makes not sense and is a huge lie, but that is what they are saying.
So NO, Best Buy is not selling AT&T Galaxy S3's over the counter.

Yes this guys right. Take a look for yourself:
ATT Galaxy Note Specs
T-Mobile Galaxy S3 Specs
ATT Galaxy S3 Specs
Notice how the Note and the T-Mobile Galaxy S3 have that 1700 Mhz frequency? Thats what T-Mobile broadcasts their 3G/4G spectrum on. If the phone doesnt have those frequencies, then it wont work no matter what you do.

That's different. It is a whole different phone with a whole different SoC.
Let's not say things that we cannot prove.
Don't shoot this guy completely down. It will get T-Mobile 3g/4g as soon as T-Mobile refarms their network.

Yes, HSPA+ will be fine. But as you said, no LTE.
Would it be better to get an international s4 and unlock to use on att or should I get an att s4 instead?

you can get one from att cheaper subsidized but you will be locked in for two. years.. If you use lte you only have a choice to get att version as internation will not work with let..
The International has an octacore while the att will only have a quad because of lte

Not true. Some international markets will receive lte versions. I'm unsure of the processor included with them. It seems Europe is starting to upgrade their networks to lte

Correct. You will have to be knowledgeable of the different model numbers (i95XX,etc) and know which one(s) are lte. I'm not sure of any of these devices hardware spec differences yet. Soon.
Locked since its not related to ATT SGS3. Use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192630
Hi,
I'm thinking moving from AT&T to T-Mobile and was wondering if I can keep my unlocked Skyrocket (Galaxy SII), flash a T-Mobile rom,a modem, change the APN and be good to go.
Will I be able to get 4g?
Thanks for your help.

If you're somewhere that tmobile has 1900 MHz service, you should be fine. Why lock in to another contract or payment plan if you don't have to?

You still have to run a ROM from the skyrocket forum. You can use T-Mo modems or skyrocket modems
I use the T989 on At&t and get better performance with a T-Mo modem

Going to T-Mobile with their new "non contract" plan will save me $50/month without signing for 2 years, I think it's a really good saving

'Uncarrier' plans, remember? There are no free phones anymore (though there are ones with no down payments, but the SGS2 doesn't qualify). Even the absolute cheapest phones must be fully paid for now as shown on their website.
To the OP, I highly recommend getting a new phone. The i777 is good, but it lacks the 1700 band, so you won't have 3G. Choose whatever phone you like, though, personally, I intend to get the HTC One myself as soon as I can.
I am looking to buy s4 but can't find Tmobile variant at cheaper price than compare to att version. I live in Chicago where I guess Tmobile has switched on the 1900 band. I think? If I were to purchase the att version would I get the same data speed as I would with Tmobile version. 4g or lte ? Please advise.
