Hello to all. Is it possible to transform a Tmobile Note 2 into an ATT Note 2 using this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568537 ? I tried searching but couldnt find anything on it and since the ROM says its multicarrier I wanted to know if it was possible. I intend to use that Note 2 on net10 by the way. Thanks in advance!
Whatever you do, don't flash the AT&T note 2 modem. You can't make a T889 into a I317. You can make it look and mostly act like one though.

So, If I intend to use the T889 with net10, which modem should I install in order for the phone to get LTE?

As long as your note 2 is unlocked, you will be able to get LTE on AT&T. You can use the current ROM that you are using now... Nothing had to be done/changed. Just pop in the new SIM, put in the correct APN, and you're good to go.

I see. Well then problem is my T889 is not unlocked, so I was thinking about downgrading it to 4.1.1. unlock it and then upgrade to 4.3. Thing is, How do I upgrade to 4.3? Cant seem to find the 4.3 stock rom here. The instructions on the jedi rom say one needs to be on 4.3 for wifi to work.

UVALJ1 modem on a T889 *should* get you to the point of being able to unlock. If not, odin the whole package (UVALJ1). MrRobinson's root66 works great.
If you have the 4.3 knoxed bootloader you may have issues with reverting.

I see. Well I have a T889 that had to be sent to samsung because the board died. Before it died, the phone had 4.1.2 and when it was returned fixed, the phone had 4.3. So, If I flash the UVALJ1 modem on my 4.3 T889 (stock non rooted) will I be able to unlock using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176721 or is that only for 4.1.1?

Ok. So I tried flashing in Odin Mr. Robinsons 4.1.1 image in order to unlock my phone, Tried it 3 times but it always resulted in a Fail. I searched a bit and apparently the Knox thing prevents from downgrading so I flashed Mr. Robinsons 4.3 image and to my surprise the phone booted back up like it was before, all my settings, everything was there. Only new thing is that now my T889 was rooted... Which is a good thing but still I cant unlock my phone

You might have luck flashing the UVALJ1 modem only. If that is successful, the unlock should work.

I've got the same phone and, thanks to my recently flashing (with Odin) to 4.3 Stock, I think I'm in about the same situation if I were to want to revert. As I understand, once you've gone to the stock 4.3 bootloader - however you got there, via Odin flash, OTA update or factory returns phone to you with it - you can no longer use Odin to revert anything because with Odin you're flashing an entire image - bootloader, modem, ROM, Kernel - and you now need to cherry pick non-bootloader items you'll revert. You can't get rid of the locked down 4.3 bootloader at all.
I am hoping we can still use Odin to at least go back to stock 4.3. I'm actually going to try that in a bit and mess with my flash counter - it seems to not want to reset that's another subject.
I'm not sure if the 4.3 bootloader prevents going back to an older modem or not - I might try that too and see what happens. If it does not, then these steps might get you back to an unlockable state - might also trip your Knox Warranty Void along the way in case if that concerns you. Mine is tripped and I'm really not sure why or when it happened.
1) Get GooManager off Play Store and use it to install custom recovery - you need this because you can no longer just flash an entire pre-4.3 image thanks to the 4.3 bootloader
2) Using custom recovery, flash UVALJ1 modem & Odexed or Deodexed ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102380
If it'll boot at this point, you should be able to do the unlock thing - this is how I originally unlocked mine last April - but that was pre-4.3-locked state for me. If we cannot get back to that unlockable state, I'm going to be really sorry I knowingly let myself get locked down by 4.3 - I assumed at the time last week that it wouldn't affect that much but in hindsight I'm afraid I shoulda thought about it a bit more lol.
Hope this helps!

Well, Flashing the UVALJ1 modem on my T889 with the Jedi Master X 4.3 custom ROM worked like a charm. There was no need to flash the whole image. Just the modem was enough. Hope it helps for those who are on 4.3 and need to unlock their Note 2.
Let me ask this using the same thread just to not open a new one. Well my new question is, After I flashed the UVALJ1 modem I was able to unlock the phone but I noticed I cant get 4GLTE anymore. So If I flash the newest modem for 4.3 will I lose Unlock on the phone? Thanks in advance!
No unlock sticks

You'll be fine. It should stick with you.
As you found out, UVALJ1 doesn't support LTE. It gave my phone epic battery life though. The original rom was phenomenal on battery. Subsequent releases lowered battery life until LTE was support dropped then battery was relatively crappy. It always had to hunt for LTE which sucked as it released when Las Vegas was the only market tmo supported.

Yeah I noticed that flashing the UVALJ1 modem gave my Note 2 excellent battery life. Since here where I'm from T mobile just has 3 small areas of LTE and none apply to me then Ill just stay with UVALJ1. Thanks again!

I never had any issues with my old M919, which is still sitting in a drawer awaiting a new display assembly I cannot afford. It was running CM 10 perfectly and no issues with HSPA or LTE. I was suffering for a while with an HTC Espresso which I could not S-OFF due to HBOOT being incompatible with AlphaRev. Anyway, I ended up with my old roomate's M919 about a week ago and have had nothing but issues getting mobile data to work properly.
It already had the MK2 Baseband installed-though I did not bother to check if it worked on the stock 4.3 ROM he had already installed. Nor did he ever say anything about issues. Anyway, I tried almost all of the Infamous ROM's(and all the kernels available with AROMA) as well as Cyanogenmod 10.2. All ROM's have major issues maintaining mobile data connection regardless of network mode or which cell I am on. Wi-Fi works flawlessly however. Also, to note, my fiance is running MK2 on her stock M919 so I have had a reference of which type of cell we are on and its signal strength.
So, finally I flashed the MK2 modem manually and rebooted into CM 10.2. That just made it completely unable to connect to any type of network although Wi-Fi worked just fine. So, now I am attempting to reinstall Infamous S4 from a full wipe to see if that will work, but after that I am out of ideas.

Have you checked your APN settings (versus your fiancés) to make sure they are correct? And to be completely fair, you could post in one of the many CM threads like this one here, you will target a much larger and focused support base. :good:
The whole mdl / mk2 radios are a mess. There are 2 radios, one for lte and one for hspa and below. The LTE one stays mdl and only the other is upgraded because of knox installation that some people are worried about (their warranty).
I believe what you may want to do is install the ota official for 4.3 to get all the correct radios and just forget about the warranty. There have been ways to reset the knox counter later down the road if you want to claim your warranty but I do not recall any guides.
I've started a thread here too for some clarifications on this subject so check that for answers too

First, there is currently NO METHOD to reset your KNOX counter, please do not give wrong information (which is why we have THIS thread).
Second, a link to this thread of yours would be useful, if you only linked it.
Third, "correct" radios are already freely available on XDA without taking the 4.3 OTA. He may have flashed an improper or incompatible modem.bin file, which is why his problem is occurring.

Correct radio's without knox means that there is still an old LTE radio which creates and has been creating lots of problems for people.
I don't care about a flash counter anyway, and sorry did not mean to spread mis-information.
My thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2609962
the only answer I was given was one that told me to do the exact thing I didn't want to do, which is to flash the GSM MK2, but leave the LTE MDL.
-------------
I'm looking to see if anyone can help me find a way to flash the OTA update which contains KNOX (which includes the MK2 LTE) and also the MK2 GSM radio's.
The only downside I see to flashing KNOX (and the MK2 LTE) is this flash counter. I believe I heard somewhere you may not be able to flash new kernels, but I'm not sure if that is correct or not. If it is correct and I can not flash new kernels, I also do not care and don't know why so many people are okay with LTE radio's that go out all the time vs a flash counter+stock kernel

It's okay, we are all learning about information . The modem.bin file you flash in Odin replaces your old one (which is why the name of the file HAS to be modem.bin, otherwise nothing will get replaced).
Why do you WANT KNOX? KNOX is part of the bootloader for 4.3+. The guide you linked is how almost everyone has updated their modems on 4.2.2 bootloader.
If you are on 4.2.2 bootloader, follow these steps:
1) Download the 4.3 modem.
2) Place phone in download mode (Vol Down + Home + Power)
3) Open Odin and plug into computer.
4) Select "Phone" and then choose the modem.bin file.
5) Uncheck "Auto-reboot"
6) Press Start and wait 30 seconds after it says "Passed."
7) Restart phone.
I can almost guarantee you that this will work because this has been proven to work hundreds of thousands of times. I am on 4.2.2 MDL LTE (since I am already on 4.2.2) and I just flashed the 4.3 MK2 modem. I have no problems at all with data now.
EDIT: I am also using a 4.3 MK2 modem on 4.2.2 and have no issues.

I want knox because I want the LTE radio which is tied to knox. I don't care if I have knox or not. My phone is not under warranty anyone, and if that is the only thing that is scaring people away then I have no reason to worry about knox.
I may try out this scenario but right now my phone reboots all the time and I've heard people having issues with LTE on 4.3 ROM's so I am not looking forward to spending hours configuring my phone only to wipe it all again, but it may work out better than I am thinking so I will give it a shot.
For reference, if there is a flashable full 4.3 ROM/.tar (with knox and the MK2 LTE included) out there and you could link me, I would appreciate it. I can't seem to find any which is odd.
Cheers

There are 4.3 flashable ROMs out there but they will not give you what you want. You will HAVE to Odin flash a stock file to get what you're after.
Here are some links for the stock MK2 with KNOX included (choose whichever one is faster). :good:

Open up odin, select PDA, choose the tar file you just downloaded.
Then put your phone in download mode (vol down + home + power), then connect it to your computer.
Once odin detects your phone, press start. It will take 15 to 20 mins and it will restart by itself.
After it reboots and for some reason you get stuck on the tmobile screen for more than 10 mins, go into recovery and wipe/data factory reset and wipe cache. Then your phone will boot up fine. Enjoy ^_^

Both M919's are set to fast.t-mobile.com, although I haven't checked to see if the settings all match. I will definitely check that later.
As for threads here and elsewhere to solve the problem, I have tried pretty much everything I have seen. Most of what I have been reading on both CM and custom TW ROM threads is "me too" or "I don't have that problem".

I'm not waiting 4-8 hours to download a ROM. Yes, I understand those estimates are ads to try to get you to buy "premium membership" but still, do you have a legit mirror?
Hello there. Just wanted a question answered. I just bought a note 2 (coming from the HTC One) to try the note line without breaking the bank. What I wanted to know is if I could flash international note 2 ROMS on the tmobile version of the note 2. I'm loking for a ROM that basically mimicks a lot of the note 3's functions and also has unique looks and customization with exposed and wannam. I think I came across one on the At&t forums so I also wanted to know if we could openly flash At&t roms on this variant of the phone as well without issues. Also, ive read a little and have seen many posts about issues with wifi and fixing it with some kernels. Can someone elaborate on that please? Thank you for your time.

If your T-889 is still on a 4.1.2 software version and hasn't been updated to 4.3 you may experience wifi initiation problems on 4.3 touchwiz based roms.
You can remedy this by either updating to the new official 4.3 version which installs the knox enabled bootloader, or use PC odin to flash Dr Ketan's bootloader to enable the rom and device to work out wifi start up. A third option is flashing a custom kernel specially the devil kernel by derteufal1980. I have had mixed experience with devil kernel but overall it is good. I personally stock with the stock kernels as they do everything pretty well.
Personally I would go with the Dr Ketan bootloader patch option as it doesn't "burn any bridges" or limit future use like the official bootloader can (causing version regression hassles, allowing knox to pop e-fuses etc). Using the bootloader patch will allow things such as triangle away to work so that you can get back to official stock status for whatever reason you have (selling the device, return for factory service etc).
Others will tell you differently for a variety of reasons that are, at least partially IMHO, valid in a practical sense. Their opinion is valid for their circumstance, I have different needs than they do. YMMV.
If you flash the Dr Ketan bootloader patch you will also want to flash the current modem. There's are odinable versions and some for installation with a custom recovery. They are all the same except for the installation method. If you choose the official upgrade methods you will automatically get the new modem during the process.
There is no downside to installing the current modem, it makes signal acquisition for LTE quicker and I haven't seen it do anything worse than the previous versions.
Before installing anything read all the applicable thread info and check your md5 data.

Got cha. Thank you! I was checking out that rom too. Looks clean and nice. so im assuming being t-mobile phones, if we want to flash international version rom, the section that must be used is the 7105 correct?

Before you flash anything, boot into stock recovery mode and check if the screen has a line saying knox warranty void or something similar. If I only has device counter you can go ahead and do what you need to do. Once the knox bootloader is installed, there is no going back (a big reason why I prefer the patch option).
If it has one that mentions knox counter don't bother with flashing any bootloader stuff as it is already been taken down the 4.3 update path.

Wow, Seems like knox is a giant headache from what you;re telling me. But even if it has the knox bootloader, will i be able to root, flash a custom recovery and custom rom or knox totally just kills that?

Knox is an obstacle to be dealt with. You can do all those things with it. Doing things like reverting to previous versions of Android are more frustrating (and less obvious) than with the old bootloader.
Also, once the knox bit is tripped there is no known revert method. If you ever need knox functionality you are out of luck. Most people will never need it at this point. Samsung may or may not decide that the warranty is invalid based on knox counter status. People have stated both Ok and void results. YMMV.
Rooting a knox enabled rom can be tricky but doable as long as you follow the processes outlined in the guides.
Me personally, odin flashing the wifi patch (and modem) was by far preferable. Both can be found in the Tmo gn2 forum right here in river city.
Having said all that, some quality time reading and deciding what is important for you personally will take you far with this device. It really is a great phone and extremely capable.
Best of luck to you.

Great. thanks for your time! really appreciated.
I have a AT&T Galaxy S3 and I have been searching the forums for a solution to this, and have come up with some answers. From what I've gathered I am by no means at the end of my ropes at recovering the device, but I'm having trouble actually making any ground on it.
I read that flashing back to stock using Odin would get me by the yellow triangle of death, but I can't find a stock download anywhere. All the links I've found link to hotfile, which isn't up anymore so that's been creating some problems. Maybe I'm wrong on that, but all I need is Samsung's stock 4.0.4, right?
I have a HTC Sensation and Nexus 10, both rooted, and I thought I had a pretty good grip on what direction was up from working on those devices but this S3 really has me stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It might be better if you could mention what exactly you did to get your device to the state it is in.

Woops, sorry. I flashed CF-Root-SGS3-v6.3.tar using Odin and the process failed.
What OS were you running before trying to root? If it's 4.3, you won't find an AT&T stock 4.3 rom to re-flash your phone. Do not try and flash anything with a bootloader that is older than the phone's current bootloader as that will brick it.

In my opinion, don't go near 4.3.
I'm sorry, I feel like this should be obvious, but how do I know which of these I want to flash?
So you're sure you were on 4.04 when you tried to root? If that's the case, I would try the July version.
By flashing in Odin, you will wipe everything off the phone, including your data.

100%. On the box the SW-VER is listed as I747UCDLK3, should I still go with the July version? And I use the PDA function in Odin for this, correct?
Wait, DLK3 is 4.1.1, not 4.0.4.

Huh. I reset the phone to factory settings last night before I started tinkering with anything, and it was for sure listed as 4.0.4. I could be mistaken though, but I'm fairly certain. I'd rather not go against what's listed on it's box though. I'm sure the factory knows better than me.
I'm not sure what to do now. Does the imei # match the box?
That it does. I have to wait another 2 hours before I can even download the stock firmware, so it'll be awhile before I can even try flashing it.

I'm not sure what I would do in your situation since the box indicates you have 4.1.1 while your phone has 4.04.
You were right, I talked with someone who was there last night when I was working on it. The phone is 4.1.1, thanks for the catch.
Okay, at least it is definitely not 4.3 which is good.
What you can do is install a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM.
So should I not even worry about going back to stock then?

You need to download and Odin flash the official stock N900T NE6 firmware.
Here is the direct fast download link for it:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358537528
The zip file also contains Odin, CF-Autoroot and TWRP 2.7.0.1 recovery.
Unzip the file into a new folder in windows desktop.
Be sure to go into recovery before Odin flashing NE6 and do a factory data reset
and a full wipe. Then Odin flash the TAR/MD5 firmware.
After successful odin flash, put the phone into download mode again and
flash cf-autoroot and the TWRP 2.7.0.1 tar files.
If you want more information and or instructions here is the link:

run triangle away v3.26.apk from chainfire, when you apply the info. it will shut down, power off, then boot to bootloader and flash firmware, that was the easiest way for the modem, baseband to stick....

Fix it! I think the baseband is partly to blame for the the data drops in nb4. And I'm getting way better battery life as well. To get the new baseband to stick download Triangle Away then reflash in Odin. Worked for me. Id recommend you wipe your data too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/orig-development/2013-10-04-triangleaway-v3-10-t1494114

Use Triangle Away to reset your flash counter and make it official. Then flash NE6 with Odin/Mobile Odin to get latest baseband.

do i need to be on stock nb4 kernel then use triangle away or does using triangle away good enough to start the process?
Just did this today, you need to be on a stock samsung kernel for triangle away the warning is VERY clear in the app. Personally, when a developer says "do it this way, or you will have a problem" I take their advice.
Read carefully and follow ALL of the instructions very carefully as well.
There are at least two different threads covering how to flash this. One has "stock ODEX" {{ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2713354 }}, the other has "stock Deodexed" {{ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2761451 }}

There is "NO" way to update officially to NE6 if you have rooted, modded, used a custom recovery in the past on you Note 3.
If you have tripped knox in any way, you will already have the bootloader you need to be on, and can flash the new stock rom from the forum.
If you have not tripped knox, have no custom recovery, have never done anything to your phone, then you are free to get the update as TMO pushes it out.

Good luck. I'm switching to at&t this next week. Just paid off my eip. I just want functionality. Going to hit up an aosp ROM later today to compare. When I cone back to touch wiz maybe *all new roms will be updated to ne6. It's weird though because I used to not have any issues, then a week ago I couldn't connect to anything on lte. Was hoping it was just a modem issue, but probably needs kernel as well.

I also tried TMOBILE services - I could not get any signal strength inside my home so the only way to make calls was to use WIFI Calling - (probably why they built that feature in the first place)
Then the data speeds were very slow - the fastest speed I could get around town was around 6mps - but on ATT I get consistent speeds over 20MBS and soemtimes 35MBS and higher - download speeds have been also very good -
I have seen others praise TMOBILE for the high speeds they get - so maybe things are better in their market? Don't know - just that they suck where i live...

In my area they are great if outdoors, but don't cover the whole city. I also have zero indoor penetration. They have bought a ton of 700 MHz spectrum off of Verizon, so that portion should get better soon.
Their LTE is fast where I live if you can get it. I got 35 Mbps the other day. But again, I have to travel outside of the city on jobs and am quite frequently without Wi-Fi or service.... So the jump is going to be made. I use my personal cell phone for work, and if I don't have signal, that is money lost...

that is so wrong, i just did it, i used triangle away to reset my counter rebooted to let it do its thing, then chose download mode, flashed ne6 rebooted and i was at the updated baseband.
Trying to upgrade to custom 4.3 roms and have run into an issue (been at this for almost 48 hours, I can't get anything to work at this point so I'm quite frustrated).
Upon flashing a 4.3 custom rom, wifi stopped working, so I sought a solution to that. After wiping and installing several different ROMs with the same result, i ODIN'd a stock 4.3 (so now i have that knox counter). That didn't work either. I ended up flashing that Dr wifi patch, which finally got my wifi to search properly.
But wait, there's more!
I get no mobile service now. Phone doesn't recognize SIM, no baseband, no IMEI, no nothing. All other 4.3 roms give the same result. All other functions seem to work. Re-flashed modem, didn't fix it. Tried to use NV items reader/writer to write my IMEI back, but every time I try to read the phone it fails.
Also been trying to flash a Jedi x20, but every time it just boot loops me right back into recovery.
I'm stuck, and I need help.

You are on a Canadian Note 2 then. You should flash the LUCMK4 rom for your device's original carrier from this thread and factory reset. Once you have done that boot and ensure that you have baseband. One fellow reported that flashing the a tmo modem was tough to fix on his Canadian Note 2.

You might give Kies emergency recovery a shot. That Canadian modem swap bit is harsh. I think Teshx had a thread about the subject at one point. I think he just ran the tmo modem... That doesn't seem to work for tie device though.
