totaly different radios bro it will brick

based on what I've read, T-Mobile's note 2 has the same hardware as the international version. just different radio chip, so theoretically, delete modem file from ROM should do the trick. just my 0.02 tho.

Thats what im thinking. Grqnted, I dont know anything but im very curious if you replaced the modem file if we could run n7100 roms. Can we flash n7100 kernels?

since it's t-mobile branded, there won't be many modem choices. so i wouldn't touch the stock modem at all just in case if you wanna return your device later on.

Make Tmo note2 to att?

Is there anyway to completely erase everything from the tmo note 2 and flash att rom to work as a att note 2? If hardware is the same as att note 2 why would it not be possible to turn this phone into a att note 2 with full LTE?

Im almost a 100% sure that if you have it unlocked and put in an ATT sim card in you should have service. To make it better just flash an ATT modem/radio to the device and that should give you the best results. ATT and T-Mobile's GN2's have the same LTE bands in them so you should get ATT LTE with this device. Good Luck

Hey DROID... I tried that and got stuck in a boot loop. I even tried to recover my back up and still boot loop. .. had to Odin stock firmware and re root. .. Any other ideas?

Make sure that the ATT modem/radio is compatible with the tmobile GN2. If not then you will get a bootloop. And also i suggest flashing a custom ROM.

I'm on jedi x rom. .. I haven't send att modems compatible with tmobile note 2 do you have any links?

Thank you!! Will do!!

It's because the hardware is not the same. You can flash radios but hardware is different enough to cause a bootloop if you flash the entire rom.

[Q] Specific Radio for T-Mobile Users???

Is there one, if at all?
I know some rom's don't come with a radio and sometimes I try to tend to flash those types of rom's.
But I was just wondering... Right now I'm on Jedi XP12 for the i317.
Also my phone is AWS hack/enabled, so do I really need to worry about a radio?

Dont flash any radio accept for att note 2 radio. If im not mistaken it will brick it

Yeah I know that, I was just wondering if there was any modded radio or modem made for i317 users on T-Mobile.
Or what would be the best recommended radio/modem for i317 users on T-Mobile, if any at all?
I typically try to stick to rom's with no radios/modems, so my phone isn't uselessly searching and searching for AT&T Signals since it's on T-Mobile... If that makes any sense, plus just to save the battery a lil bit more, since I don't need them.

Hers the newest modem from TMO. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102380
I loaded the latest b4, the newest release on my buddies GN2 and his signal improved drastically..

Okay so it's safe to flash other carriers modems and brickable unsafe to flash other carriers radios?

When ya did that was it cause the newest one wasnt out yet?
I'm on 4.1.2, so I wonder if I should use the 4.1.2 version, also the modem ya can just install through TWRP or do I need to use Odin? I'm thinking Odin instructions is for the factory image..
I'm curious.

Hrmm...
Okay tried that made sure make a nandroid backup including my existing modem, flashed the new modem and it'd recheck the app's then finish that and sit there stuck and frozen on sorting app's, had to restore from nandroid.

Could it because I'm running a rom that has a modem already installed on it, let alone a AT&T modem?
I'm using JDEVIL's rom right now.

Ok, you have a TMO GN2 right? And your saying the you have a AT&T modem on there? Because that will brick the phone. But if you have it up an running then your good to go. My buddy has the TMO version. So when I switched or his modem with the new one his speeds increased. So I'm saying if yours if a TMO GN2, then you'll b ok flashing a TMO modem!

Naw vice versa kinda, I have unlocked AT&T Note 2 (i317) on T-Mobile, I know better to cross flash rom's so to speak (Ya know flash a T889 rom onto a i317), but I was just wondering since there were so many AT&T Note 2 users on T-Mobile if there was any sort of a hacked and modified T-Mobile Radio/Modem for the Unlocked AT&T Note 2, to get the most out of our signal, connection and speed.
Also if it was needed at all since we have the AWS Mod.

I don't think there's one out there! But you can always keep searching tho. That's why we have Google for!! Especially if you have the AWS working already!
But I understand what ya mean, and saying. Just looking for something a lil better..
LOL

At&t Galaxy s3 using tmobile galaxy s3 rom

Hi
so i have a at&t galaxy s3 phone with jelly bean and its unlocked so im using tmobile on it, the problem is that theirs these at&t crap apps that runs only for at&t and uses my memory so i was wondering if i find a official Tmobile galaxy s3 rom and install it on my at&t galaxy s3 phone would their be any issues. I' m fairley new at this so sorry in advance if its a stupid question.
Thank You

Use search or browse the GS3 Android Development there is a couple multi carrier ROMs.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 4

so a tmobile rom on a at&t phone would be out of the question?

Its not out of the question. Just make sure before flashing it that it'll work for the ATT variant. Which is should.

Or you can download titanium backup from play store and freeze the apps you don't want

Metro S4 on T-mobile, root related concerns

I just picked up this MetroPCS S4, it is unlocked, I get LTE using my tmobile sim and all that good stuff..
My question is, are ALL the T-Mobile roms compatible???
Another possible concern, even though it's working, it is still using the metro apn, and depending on who you ask, there is all different T-Mobile apns. Which one is the actualy one the S4 came with on T-Mobile?
Thanks in advance.

The T-Mobile ROMs will work. Just don't flash the T-Mobile modems.

Thanks! don't most of the roms come with the modem when you flash them?

No roms come with modems.. That would be a disaster.. Use the fast.t-mobile APN, although if it works with your current APN and don't have problems I think it'll be ok.. I think metroPCS and T-Mobile apns are backwards compatible, I've used T-Mobile APN on metroPCS before and never had problems

Cool, could I use a stock T-Mobile rom on my metro s4? Or is there like a stock prerooted flashable metro rom?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

You can just use the T-Mobile ones.
I don't think I have seen any for metro floating around yet.

I can even use the stock T-Mobile rom? What about if I Odin back to stock? Would a tmobile image mess it up?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

You won't be able to use the odin ones.
But the custom roms to download will all work fine.
Just don't flash a tmo modem on it.

So I can't use a stock T-Mobile rom? Not like Odin, but like a deodexed version or whatever?
