The T-Zones I believe are a part of your Account. They come via your SIM not your ROM. So if you use Unlocked S3 or Note should be able to work with it. Give it a try. If it does not work you can always return the phone next day.

Good to know. If I were you, I wouldn't let the carrier know about your change of device. They'd ask you to replace your Sim For Free. However the new sim won't play ball with the setup you have.

Question regarding SG3 and tzones.

I currently have an iphone on tmobile, and i only get 2G because of the clashing frequencies. I want to get a Tmobile SG3 and get 4G, but if i unlock the phone will tmobile still be able to read the code of the phone and make me upgrade to a actual internet plan.
So my question is; should i buy the international SG3 or the tmobile SG3? Thanks for anything you guys can tell me.

Answer, Wrong section. Move to Q&A.
they will find out regardless. even if you buy it from somewhere else. and they will make you upgrade unfortunately.

i had a feeling that was the case, so it seems that i would need to get the international version to get around that

[Q] Can we flash a Samsung Galaxy s III to Boost Mobile?

Hi,
I want to know if we can flash a Samsung Galaxy s III to Boost Mobile.
And one more thing that I want to know is should be the phone originally from Sprint only or Verizon is also fine?
I do not have any idea and that is the reason I'm asking.
FYI. I want to buy a Samsung Galaxy S III on Ebay ( Sprint or Verizon ) and use it with a $50/ Month plan.
So if Sprint works fine then I will look only for Sprint on Ebay. Otherwise I can look for Verizon also.
So kindly please advise. Once I get some information on this, then I should start looking out for the flashing services.
Thanks.
AJ
No offense, but did you even do a search? It's right there on page 2.

Aside from price why would you want Boost? Boost is owned by Sprint and uses there network
lets see. flash to boost $35 a month in 18 months.
on sprint $80 minimum.
I would say thats a pretty good reason to want it on boost hehe

I-747m and I-747 question

OK my sister in law and her fiance bought gs3s yesterday from att here in Louisiana USA.
One is i-747 and one is i-747m, now I did some research and figured out the "M" is the Canadian version per say.
Now they are letting me go flash happy with them I've found ROMs and rooting etc but I've seen issues with modems and etc maybe....
But since they are for sure USA phones does it really matter on what I flash? Or do I have to make sure the "M" gets special attention?
Sorry for the longevity of this just trying to be precise for its not my personal phones lol
Is that a hemi? No silly its Paranoid Android!

I'm in Canada so I have the i747m and I've flashed AT&T Roms with no problems. When I do flash AT&T Roms though my phone becomes branded as an AT&T model(i747) but other than that nothing changes. As always make a backup and happy flashing.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
im also in Canada and i have the i747m. The AT&T Roms work fine.
Thank y'all, I was pretty sure it wouldn't be a big deal, but again not my personal phones so I wanted a triple reassurance
Is that a hemi? No silly its Paranoid Android!

[Q] *tmobile galaxy s4 says no service after unlocking

I unlocked my tmobile galaxy s4 m919 per your instructions. I wanted to use Walmarts family mobile, which is powered by tmobile, everything was fine until a week ago. They blocked my ime# and I can't use my phone. Were they only able to do that because I was using a network that they power? Or is my phone not unlocked? I wanna exhaust all avenues before buying another phone. A phone call to tmobile will not get this phone unlocked. ..trust me.

You most likely used some un-orthodox un-locking method ...
You will need to contact SAMSUNG and see what they
can do for you. (not tmobile).
Good luck!

AT&T Phone unlock

Hey guys,
I need a hand! I bought an iPhone 4 to try out, and Im on Tmobile, but its an AT&T phone. Would anyone mind requesting an unlock on the website for me? I cant find anyone with AT&T to help.
