I bought an used galaxy note II. I already have a N7100 but I need a T889 because I´m moving to T-Mobile. The thing is that supposedly I bought a T889 and the back says so but when I turn the device on the system says it is a I317. By the way the phone has been rooted and has CWM on it already installed.
Do you think it is possible the flashed the wrong ROM? I am not getting the HDSPA bands on T-Mobile that run at 1700MHz but I suppose this might be a modem issue.

Ok first off. I have the same phone, flashed with a AT&T Rom. And it says the same thing i317 but if you look at the modem it should be a T-Mobile. Here's a pic for ya:

There practically the same phone. But the modem AREN'T interchangeable!! Between the two devices!!!
So if you want it back to a fully tmobile device just flash yourself a tmobile stock Rom, or choose a custom without all the blot!!
Just my 2¢®

Thank you for the answer. I already figured out something like that... In fact the build is skynote as well. I reflashed a T-mobile modem just to be sure and it gets all the signals right now. I´am downloading a deodexed stock rom, and from there I´ll try to move to a good ROM. Any suggestions?

I have a Galaxy Note 3 from T-mobile and I have heard Galaxy S5 is coming out soon next year. If I flash Galaxy S5's stock rom on to my note 3, which they both run snapdragon 800 processor, will I brick my device? I am curious because they run the same hardware except for the camera.
Ummm..... Seriously?

If you find a S5 ROM, please share...
Either way, you can't just straight flash another phone's ROM to your phone, doesn't matter if it is the same SoC or not, still different parts, etc...DO NOT FLASH ROMS NOT MADE FOR YOUR DEVICE. YOU WILL BRICK.

Sammobile found a test firmware for the Galaxy S5, but they did not share it to the public yet because it is too early and device hasn't been released yet. I will post the link later if it comes out. Thank you so much!!

Why would you post it to the Note 3 forum? Belongs in the Galaxy S5 forum as it is not usable on the note 3.
i know this is kind of a noob question but i just recently got a virgin mobile s3 because my sprint phone got shut off and i used to flash roms on my sprint s3 all the time...mostly wicked sensations but would i be able to flash roms that are for sprint on my virgin mobile s3? i know there different services but does it matter since there the same model and since virgin runs off of the sprint network anyway, or does that mattter, please someone reply soon, i want to put a rom on my phone but dont want to brick it or something, thanks.

im talking about putting roms on my phone...not rooting
Yes, definitely doable. But you will probably have to change your APN for data and mmsc URL for MMS. I would back up your APN with an APN Backup app and the other is easily fixed through dialer codes.

Ok so how would i change it on the rom?
I flashed a i9300 rom to my galaxy s3 r530u (us cellular), is there a brickfile? What can i do, it is bricked. There's no bootup but a red LED when i plug my phone into the wall, without the battery.
First of all, why did you do that? And second, try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2740469

You have a different model the L710T. Use Philz Recovery, go to Philz Settings, hit reroot.

your one of the few people who got the NJ3 update....and Ryan is wrong this time you have the regular L710 NJ3 will be going out to Virgin and Boost S3's that aren't the T model...but i would still try PhilZ to see if that will root your phone and if that doesn't work flash PhilZ again but then flash this http://download.chainfire.eu/642/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.41.zip
So I was plagued with the task of rooting an s3...
I managed to root and flash twrp. However I want to make sure before I flash a rom. Is the bootloader locked on NJ1 firmware?
SANSUNG-SGH-I747
VERSION 4.4.2
I747UCUFNJ1
it's probably been asked already but I haven't been able to find an answer. Thanks
The bootloader cannot be locked if the phone was successfully flashed with twrp.
The bootloader on the att s3 has never been locked, unlike many other phones from att.

Awesome thanks! Would you happen to have any insight on why the phone would be stuck in factory mode? And would flashing a new rom take it out?
What do you mean by factory mode? What message appears on screen when you boot the phone?

You have the international version of the s3? The North America version is either i747 or i747m?
