The T prefers the 850mhz band over the 2100mhz for 3G.

Are GT-7105 rooting mechanisms ok for GT-7105T?
Hi guys,
I'd like to root my Telstra (TEL, Australia) GT-7105T but don't want to rush ahead as CF-Auto-Root devices don't list the 'T' suffix version. I imagine it would be fine - someone has already used it successfully - but I don't want to affect the function of the radios without realising it.
Any clues?

And I'm wondering if the CM for N7105 works on N7105T.

I rooted my N7105T with no problem and installed the Telstra rom from the N7105 section. Phone works great. No issues at all.

Hi XDA,
I am currently on a T-mobile contract, but I will move to a different country for business purposes.
I know how to do the device unlock (thanks to youtube), but I was just thinking of different issues that
might come across when using different GSM network.
my device is rooted, running custom rom with T-mobile radio.
my questions are:
1. even if i unlock my device, shouldnt i flash a different rom that is compatible to other networks? (different radio too?)
2. could i use the roms and radios that are used in international version?
if the process is more complicated than I am thinking, could someone light me up?
Thanks in advance.

Never flash anything from an international model as you will brick your device.
I am planning on buying the T-Mobile Note II on the day of release, and I was wondering if the currently-available rooting methods/tools are LIKELY to work on it, or whether I will have to wait for a new method to be devised for that specific branded model.
Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place!

you should be able to install CWM and flash the SU zip and you'll be good to go. seems all of this stuff is somewhat universal to other variants. since the hardware is all the same (minus radio) it should all work just fine!
check out the Toolkit in the development section.
I'm seeing a whole bunch of different model numbers including here on this forum. I have a new (used) Note 8 with LTE. I'm seeing the following which I am familiar with:
N5100 - 3G
N5110- Wifi
N5120 - LTE
But I'm also seeing these two in this forum and I don't have a clue:
4.2.2 N5210 for i467M Only,,, Flashable via Odin
i467M
So what is the N5210 or is that just a mistake, and what is an i467M which is what I have?
Thanks so much for any help.

Does that mean I can install any ROM with a 5120 designition or is there anything special abode the Canadian Rogers or Bell version?
Hi,
I just purchased a Note 2 N7105T outright. I want to change the firmware to either an Optus firmware or unbranded version.
Can someone please guide me on how to do this?
Cheers,
layziebone
Hi mate, you can swap ROMs but the antenna is not going to work as well between N7105T & N7105 as the T version is tuned for 850mhz 3G while non-T is tuned for 900mhz / 2100mhz 3G.
Interestingly enough I have a N7105 (Optus ROM) that I use on Telstra. I would much prefer the T / Telstra version.
Perhaps we could do a trade, I can see that you are also in Melbourne. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Please read this first #15. Moved here as this does not belong in the Development Sections.

You did no research. You shouldn't have bought that phone.
Verizon is cdma. Telus is GSM.
I'm on Telus as well using WWE/International firmware.
Telus/koodo and bell in Canada are also a CDMA/gsm company. This phone should have no problems with telus/koodo. How is the wwe firmware do you see a difference in signal. Is your phone root and are you using any custom ROMs.

Click this link, and scroll down to "So can I use my Android device on other networks?" (Actually you should read the whole article. It's quite informative.)
I'll quote the second paragraph from there for you here:
First off, if you have a CDMA handset (the lack of a SIM card is a sure fire indicator) from Bell/Virgin or TELUS/Koodo (that isn't a world phone) or from the US (Sprint/Verizon), it is impossible to use the phone on a Canadian network other than the one it came from as Bell and TELUS does not allow the import CDMA devices from outside their network.
I'll say it again, you didn't do proper research. If you would have bought a GSM phone, you wouldn't be having this issue.
The link also has a chart that shows the compatible carriers for the different bands/frequencies that are available.
