Canadian S3 i747M is NOT working permanently on AWS 3G at this time. Changes are lost on restart. Kind of like a tethered iPhone. If you would like to try it, please see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36410875&postcount=197

$50.00 I will contribute once there is a solution

I'm just curious. What is the advantage of having 3g on that frequency? Better reception and service?
Thanks

So you can use it on t mobile.
My question is, why not just buy a T-Mobile version if that's what you need. :scratches head:

Probably more roaming options or using LTE in certain situations.

Who said this was even possible? For all we know, these frequencies are disabled in hardware.​

oooh... this is my first LTE phone so I was unaware that it may be hardcoded into hardware...did the the s2 sh!trocket not have the ability to toggle LTE on/off? (even after flashing custom ROMs and tweaks?)

I am trying to be optomistic however so many threads conclude its not possible.

Means some people are saying its not possible to do... I am still optomistic but from reading different threads I was informed that there is a difference of hardware which would make it impossible to make i747m work with tmobile 3g.

Any developer working on this?

Mobile Hotspot on Note 2

Hey guys. I used to have a myTouch4G (stock OS) and I used to be able to open the hotspot from it and connect my laptop wireless when I'm on the road.
I recently upgraded my phone to Note 2 and when I was about to try its hotspot, it was asking me to upgrade my plan to include mobile hotspot.
I was able to do it before with my same plan. How can I do this on my Note 2 without rooting?
Thanks.

pretty sure you have to be rooted to do it..

Actually you can just use foxfi

Foxfi does not work with JB, need to root, use TrevEs modded wifi tether and vpn1click if you want to connect to a laptop.

Thanks for the replies.
Is this not going to require upgrading my plan?

I am assuming you are on the unlimited data plan like myself, so no it will not, what I posted above does work (only solution I have found so far that does). I just played on xbox live for a hour with no issues.

Yes I'm on an unlimited plan. It used to work on a stock MT4G before and its weird that it doesnt for Note 2. I guess I have to root this. I havent tried it though so I guess I have to study it.
Would really appreciate a link for the easiest way of rooting my Note 2
Also where can I get TrevEs modded wifi tether and vpn1click?
Thanks for the help.

Odin as directed in this thread and you are rooted. Super simple. When you are done your set in two ways, your device is rooted and you have experience with a very useful and powerful tool (Odin).
