So here's my situation : I'm located in Chicago with Tmobile and I'm currently on the grandfather plan with web2go/tzone data plan. I don't want to get rid of my $5 unlimited data plan, so I did some research and found that it's possible to flash the N7105 to N7100, or I could flash the T889 to N7100. <--Please correct me if I'm wrong. Which one of these will phone will work best for my situation? Newcomer to the forum, I thank you in advance for any advice/recommendation.

Don't get the T889. Since that's the T-Mobile model, they'll know you're using a smartphone.
So I know this may look like a dumb question, but I will ask anyway. So I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (SGH-T989) but I am on Walmart Family Mobile's Network. If I root this phone, will my network be messed up?
Not at all, rooting your phone its only a open door for custom roms, kernels, radios, etc.

Thanks Now I am going to root. I just didn't want to take any chances that my baby(my phone) would get screwed up
Lol... Just make sure don't flash anything else that t-989 roms, once you're rooted, download titanium backup , rom manager, back up everything. and even there's a way to un root your phone again, un case that something goes wrong, or need to return your phone. Good luck buddy and welcome.
FYI, I'm using P.A.C.man 20.1.0 rom with cerux kernel, and UVLI4 radio, and my phone is so fast.

Yeah welcome. I have the same Walmart phone, but have T-Mobile service.
Be sure to use only T989 ROMs, as the others said. We have different guts compared to the other SGS IIs.
On a side note...what is your bill with the walmart family thing? I have two lines with 2GB 4g speed, unlimited messages, 1000 min for $80 per month. Thinking about upping the data plan, as the 4g speeds at my location have gone up greatly....

For three lines it's about $117 a month. 40 for the starting line, and 30 for each line, and some tax. And that's for unlimited everything. But 4G speeds are like 3.5G Speeds on this plan.

Maybe ask in the dev thread of the rom. Or better yet, search and read thru the thread. I'll bet that issue has been covered many many times in the aokp thread.
Anyway,try there....don't ask in an old unrelated thread.

hey man thanks so much for the response let me assure you i did search, i have been rooting and rom'ing since the g1 days i feel confident in my xda user abilities so i know that that information was not readily available without a push in the right direction (ie the nice gentleman who promptly responded to my thread in q&a) but i gotta say it seems like if any thread available in this specific portal this is the most related thread LOL but anyway thanks again
Hi all,
Been modding my s3 on t mobile for a while. Moved to washington, and t mobile has no service in about 10 miles of where I am. Att has full 4g here, so I unlocked it and got the sim for their go phone plan. Had to put in the proper apn, but have data working fine now. Unfortunately, some t mobile processes keep telling me that my sim is "invalid". It's annoying. Can I flash a custom att rom, and if so, can I use the modem flash as well, or do I need to avoid flashing the att modems?
I'm running the d2tmo frosty jellybean V11.6 currently.
Thanks

Hello guys. I'm on a roadtrip trip right now in usa for 3 weeks and bought a sim and plan for 70$ from tmobile worst service ever. They told me I will have 4g from Oregon to vegas on i5 highway... So not true all I was getting was edge and g. I was wondering if att is better if I have note 2 T889V would it get data with att prepaid? Some lady at att said I won't have Internet at all. Not sure if it's true or not. Just wanted to clarify it with you smart guys.

Tmobile does not have the signal coverage that Verizon and att have.
As for you question, as far as I can tell, it may be possible to flash att radio on your model n2: there has been 1 report that someone has succeeded but no confirmation and no how-to. Others tried and either didn't work or bricked their phone.

Not possible without changing radios? To use Att?
