I have both! What I can tell you is that both are unlocked. And that I can get LTE on the TMO GN2, with my AT&T SIM in there. And on the TMO I also flashed a AT&T custom Rom SKY NOTE!! Which leave the modem in tact but changes everything else. But I don't have an active TMO SIM too check to see if I can get LTE on the AT&T GN2!!
But I get it..on one of them:thumbup:

No. Only edge network will work. 3g and 4g work on completely different spectrum and radio frequency

If that was true the galaxy note from att wouldn't get T-Mobile 4 g which it does when flashing a blaze 4g modem I also want to know if this will work on the att s3

That may be true about the Note 2, but an ATT S3 does not have the T-Mobile 3/4G frequencies.

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.

Yeah, because they live in one of the small parts of the US that uses the 1900mhz band for HSPA. It will not work everywhere else.

What about the other way? A T-Mo SGS3 on AT&T? What does that get you? I know NO LTE but what about HSPA+ ?

Yes, HSPA+ will be fine. But as you said, no LTE.
Guys,
I so want to buy the note 2 like today. However T-Mobile has no coverage in my area. If I buy the phone at full price I can get it unlocked. Am just wondering if T-Mobile note will work on at&t lte Or hspa+.

The phone does support HSPA+ on AT&T out the box since the bands are included. The phone also has T-Mobile LTE frequency as well, but is said to be locked down by software since T-Mobile does not have LTE up and running yet. I believe T-Mobile and AT&T do use the same frequency for LTE. Only way to know if someone unlocks their device and puts in an AT&T sim.
According to AnandTech review it WILL support ATT LTE. So how does a non-Tmobile user unlock this phone??? I want to use on ATT.
From the review...
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6386/samsung-galaxy-note-2-review-t-mobile-/9
One of the most interesting things about the Galaxy Note 2 on T-Mobile is that it literally is the same hardware as the AT&T Note 2 with LTE. Sure, the model number is different, but the T-Mobile Note 2 includes support for LTE bands 17 (which AT&T uses) and 4 (AWS, which AT&T has specced devices out for and T-Mobile has confirmed it will deploy LTE on). This is to my knowledge the first T-Mobile handset with overt LTE support, and thus a solid future-proof purchase if you’re determined to have a T-Mobile handset that will work with the carrier’s upcoming LTE on AWS plans.
In addition, if you unlock the handset there’s no reason it shouldn’t work on AT&T’s LTE network that I can see. I managed to unlock the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 but not before leaving the AT&T LTE market in Dallas. It does however work as expected on WCDMA 1900 in my own market on AT&T after unlocking.
Will the Note 2 work on streight talk as well?
I'm curious if the note II would work on att's 3g network. I'm with Sprint atm but I'm constantly roaming due to poor coverage so I'm assuming it won't be long till they nix my contract and paying $100+ for limited data is just ridiculous to me so I was going to go with TMobile but they only have.edge coverage around here no 3g so I was hoping if I went with TMobile I could use AT&T towers and actually have a decently priced plan with real service.

Im in the same boat im going thru the same thing I have both simplemobile/tmo and Att for work and i played with the international version and ofourse it was fine with my Att sim i didnt try my simplemoble/tmo sim at the time but im hearing the tmo version is exactly like the att and international one so imma just use my work phone/att to save some money(I use google voice so it doesnt matter what phone i use same number) and plus im suppose to get a discounted price so lets say i can possible be very happy this weekend!! but imma take the chance all the info i read states it will work with Att hspa+network so well see soon! if nobody tries it before me...
I took the plunge...
I bought the TMOB version
Cellunlocker.net unlocked it (I selected the international note 2 option)
Pooped in my at&t sim

thanks.
LTE band might just be software locked since T-Mo has yet to get LTE, FCC filings showed LTE capability. YMMV
So how does one unloxk that?

Hacked radio. Prob be a while for that though. Need att radio drivers most likely.

Make sure your using the right APN....... if your not using the right APN you won't get lte
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Most likely your going to need the At&t radio just how At&t note 1 worked on t-mobile 4g by flashing the radio... maybe even a full on rom from at&t version since all the phones now come with the same hardware
Hey guys! I just got my Galaxy Note 2 today and i am already ready to mess with it.
I was looking around and saw some threads saying that T-Mobile and At&t versions of the Galaxy Note 2 have the same LTE band and frequencies. And that you could run a T-Mobile GN2 on At&t LTE...since T-mobile doesnt have it just yet.
I am currently on T-Mobile with a t-mobile SIM. I am curious to if I flash an ATT modem/radio to my T-Mobile GN2 would that give me the ATT lte capabilities?
I don't want to jump the gun and brick my phone the first day i got it lol.
No that doesnt work...no one has gotten it to work yet. But one member is getting an update from tmo for their lte and is gonna upload a backup so the devs can hopefully turn on lte on the phones so when tmo turns on there towers we will get lte

My wife has T-Mobile note 2 unlocked on att sim she gets 4g all day every day it supports 4g icon if that tells you anything.
It Doesn't say lte but says 4g and fast as he**
If you unlock the note 2 via hidden diale menu and throw in att sim, its 4g immediately no APN configuration needed

I will be using a T-Mobile SIM so that is out of the question. But thanks for the information
Im looking to trade my iphone for a note 2 and i want to know if the tmobile note 2 will be able to use at&ts lte since im still in contract with at&t
You would have to unlock it first and I'm pretty sure it would only work on HSPA+

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.
