I know it can not sure if you need to do the aws mod or not but I didn't think so.

Yes it will... I'm actually testing Straight Talk AT&T this month, and LTE works just fine.

It works great, but only shows 3G for AT&T, no 4G as it shows when it's on T-Mobile sort of 3G/4G network..
Actually quite honestly, I don't see much difference in 4G/3G difference is there when we go to LTE

No, I mean will the at&t GS3 unlocked work on T-Mobile's 3G/4G network?
No teh radio on the att version has the T-Mobile bands replaced with the lte bands so T-Mobile on a att gs3 will only werk on edge...
Yes "werk"

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.

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.

Is this possible?

Is it possible to buy an AT&T Galaxy S4 and flash a T-Mobile Radio onto it to get 4G? (Anything but EDGE)

That's not really what he's looking for...
OP the only way to get 4g with T-Mobile on a non T-Mobile branded device is if you are in the 1900MHz 4g spectrum. T-Mobile uses 1700MHz for their high speed data. A couple areas may have 1900MHz spectrum but most are 1700MHz. I've been testing my areas out and every area I've been has the 1700MHz frequency. I was thinking of getting the s4 active from att and using it on my T-Mobile phone. But not anymore lol

Yes air! However I don't think the att variant of the s4 has the frequencies for aws. I'd have to look it up on GSMarena.com

That guide is supposed to enable aws. I assumed the ATT had the correct frequencies but they were disabled.

Acording to GMSArena the ATT S4 does not support 1700MHz frequency. And they go off of what the hardware is capable of, not what carrier/samsung says.. I would like to see a *#2263# WCDMA screenshot of one of the ATT S4s whos gone and done that mod/patch.
Im not saying its not possible, im just very skeptical of it is all. Which is why i kept my T-Mobile S4

[Q] Tmobile firmware on ATT phone?

Is it possible to have the Tmobile firmware for Samsung Galaxy Note II installed on an ATT phone? If so, how?

Hopefully i get some good answers....I'm really hoping to hear "yes, this is how.....".
Just keep the I317 modem and bootloader. The firmware etc will do fine. For network compatibility you may need the AWS mod. Don't Odin anything for the T889 on the I317. Lots of people migrate from AT&T over to T-Mobile just fine.

thanks for your input.
I'm just trying to take advantage of some of the software functions from Tmobile specifically the call over WIFI function since my signal is horrible inside my house.
