Solder points on i317 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Not sure which forum to post this in. So here it goes.
I bought an unlocked AT&T Note 2 and using it on T-Mobile. I decided to open it and see what it was about and noticed these solder points.
Has anyone seen these points on there phones and done anything with them?
I've flashed a stocked T-Mobile ROM to the phone to get the features that a T-Mobile Note 2 would offer except the modem and getting LTE.

Those look like the different model numbers...
i317 is at&t T889 i think is the tmobile and im going to extrapolate Cana as Canada or the i317m
Not sure what they would do though. Maybe something to do with the radio. I cant think of anything that is inherintley dfferent between the models but might be to enable different bands or something

I was thinking it had something to do with the modem also.
I'm going to desolder that i317 point and solder the t889 point and see if I can flash a T-Mobile modem with success.

Well, my experiment didn't work. I flashed the T-Mobile modem and it booted up, the Baseband said it was "UNKNOWN", then after about 2 minutes it would reboot and keep rebooting after a few minutes.

I had to flash an AT&T modem and got it working again.
I was hoping that it would work. There has to be someone out there that knows how to get this working.

Are there any traces on the other side of the PCB for these points? If not... Then the only difference between them is the radio module. And these points are only to id the destination of the board.
Why make three boards if all you need is a different radio module and a dot of silver to make an id in the factory.

After further investigation of these points, they are connected to one another. Used a VOM to check continuity.
It's just for identification purposes. Oh well, worth a shot.

Oops

Those points are for the wireless back plate that Samsung was suppose to release for the note 2 but never did. You can find a thread in the n7100 of a user who jerryrigged a wireless charging solution.
As for using your phone on tmobile, why not follow the tutorial readily found to unlock the AWS band instead of just flashing a modem and possibly bricking the phone?

I guess you didn't read the whole thread? Those aren't for wireless charging, identification purposes. All of them are connected to each other, like a common ground.
I already flashed a T-Mobile modem and didn't brick the phone. Already did the AWS band thing.

Sorry I did miss what you wrote. I think those points are carrier identifiers before the software AWS unlock came about. So if anyone has a stock at&t phone and desoldered the point and soldered together the t889 point and stuck in a t mobile sim, I guess it would work fully on the AWS band.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

No problem. I do get UMTS3 and it switches to HSPA+ 15 and its slower than UMTS3 most of the time.
I'm sure I did the AWS unlock right. When I found those solder points I was hoping to be able to get LTE like our S4 does but, I don't.

I been thinking...instead of messing with all that and end up with a brick, why just not sell it on ebay and buy an actual Tmobile one or maybe trade with someone willing to. I would look at the selling price for an AT&T GS3 on ebay and how much would a Tmobile run and if it's not that much difference then pay the difference than end up with a possible brick. Plus I have read some forums where if you flash some things that are not meant for your phone you can even mess up the IME on your phone with no way to flash it back at the moment until someone comes up with a solution for it.

When I put my friends note to t mobile it was the modem you had to flash , if your set on doing it , read a bunch on ways to do the note WITHOUT a custom Rom then find the same files you use in that ( the modem and if I remember right there was one other thing ) then go to the t mobile section in the sgs 3 thread and ask for help finding those files , but do a lot of reading first cause it would be a shame to brick your awesome phone

im looking into this as well, i had the att note and flashed the tmobile modem worked like a charm so now im looking to do same with s3. if i find anything ill let you know

I seriously wouldnt count on it. The two networks run on different technologies. Im pretty sure the hw is different due to this.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Have you guys tried the radios in the dev section by wildchld? I'm not sure it will work either but maybe worth a try. It has a script that backs up current radio and you can revert back. Atleast on T-Mobile s3 it does. Just need to reflash the restore zip to go back to previous radio. Again try at your own risk. There's a huge chance you can brick your device.

I don't think it matters if the Gs3 from T-Mobile doesn't have LTE, I used to have my Galaxy s2 skyrocket with LTE running on T-Mobile 3G/4G off a GS2 Hercules Modem.

Then by all means, give it a shot. I have no problem being proven wrong on stuff like this!
Just remember that was a different phone. And tmobiles radio Im pretty sure was confirmed to NOT support LTE. So they are different.
I'm definately looking forward to hearing someones results after trying! Just do some research on the two radios, and make sure the sw modem is on the same partition for each phone. (I think it will be. But if its not you could end up with serious problems)
Good luck to whomever tries it!

Probably won't, the T-Mobile phone is pentaband so it will run 3/4G on AT&T, but their version isn't. Try it though.

Never flash a ROM not meant for your device.
The Verizon phone looks for a cdma network that T-Mobile doesn't have, they use gsm. Two different technologies

You can flash roms from other provifders if the models are identical.
AT&T and T-Mobile roms can be flash back to back just make sure your modems are correct for your provider.
U CANT DO IT.
SELL UR GS3
AND FIND A TMO MODEL ON CRAIGSLIST!!!
I know it sucks, but thats just the way it.
Okay n00bs leave..
Seriously do some research before posting. My SPRINT HTC touch pro 2 works just fine on T-Mobile. So stop giving false info.
I found this. it may enable more than just roaming on GSM. I haven't read the entire thread or tried it myself well cause I has T-Mobile.
But it appears there may be some way to get it to work.
However from what I read.. seems you would be better off selling and buying T-Mobile (or possibly at&t if your area has T-Mobile 1900MHz) off Craigslist.

[Q] Will a ATT Galaxy S3 LTE work on T-Mobile

Hi
I have a T mobile galaxy S3 that I would like to upgrade to the T999L. I am looking to purchase it used and just sell my current phone, but there are slim pickings on ebay and the like. To open up my search I was considering getting the ATT variant of the Galaxy S3 LTE, but am not sure if that will work on the T-Mobile 4g bands.
Any info would be much appreciated
Thank you!

There's an engineering radio and firmware image that unlocks AWS on the at&t version... So you would get HSPA AND LTE (as long as the coverage is there)

As long as you're familiar with ODIN and know how to read, you will be fine. My caution is because it is not your regular ODIN. It literally was used internally by T-Mobile to test LTE... Don't even get me started on the existence of the T999L and how much of a scam T-Mobile pulled.

No, you can flash other carriers roms. The thing is you have to make damn sure what you're flashing isn't gonna brick you. From a software standpoint all Note 2's are the same, for the most part. You have to be careful not to flash another carriers modem or you'll have no signal. If that happens just flash an AT&T modem and you're good. The kernel is pretty much the same. There might be some minor differences but nothing to worry about. Just read read read. All the info is in the OP, and if it's not just ask in that thread.

I think more than that, you have to enable the ATT LTE bands on the radio itself... that is a change made in the radio itself that doesn't change if you flash ROMs or whatever... ATT and T-Mobile use different frequency bands, so this may be all that you need to change... If you search here, I know I came across a thread about enabling those ATT bands... I don't have a T-Mobile Note2, so I didn't bookmark it... but I know it's on here...
Good luck,
Don

You can NOT cross flash modems. With ANY Device!!!. You'll end up with a lot of PROBLEMS.:banghead: Or even a brick!!
What you need to do is the AWS bands unlock feature!
Check here for what you need. Hope that helped you with your PROBLEMS!

Any galaxy s phone can use modem.bin or mdm.bin from any other galaxy s phone. As long as they are not sprint or verizon.
When did this change?

Well I haven't done anything like that. Don't think TMO GN2 modem will work well on a AT&T GN2... you'll end up with boot loops!!
Try it and let me know you out come.
I understand about the Verizon/Sprint.
