[Q] Galaxy Note 2 7105 with Paranoid Android - How to unlock it?

Hi everyone, I bought a Galaxy Note 2 7105 from someone and it is rooted with Paranoid Android. I would like to unlock this phone and when I type *#197..... it won't go into the supposed menu where I can unlock it. I believe it is because of this paranoid android rom. I really need to unlock it to use it on Tmobile sim. I also tried to look up to put STOCK rom on it but I am not getting anywhere
My question, how can I easily unlock this phone?
2nd, how to put the stock rom on it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Q] Canadian N900W8 [Rogers, Bell, Telus etc] 4.4.2 Bootloader

Hello everyone!
I would like to know if any of you N900W8 owners have upgraded to 4.4.2 bootloader successfully and have any issues? Didn't make the move to 4.4.2 yet. Which bootloader did you flash? Thanks for your time!

You can upgrade and root the exact same way as the TMO users used.

[Q] DN3 on my Note 2 ?

Hi,
Sorry for the noob question, I have N7100 international version with the bad bootloader (associated with 4.3). Did some modding but I would like to install DN3 which I downloaded (DN3_v3.2_by_E-Team_(Vegeta_Edition)). Is it possible with that bootloader ? My version number ends with XXUEMK9
No
Need flash new bootloader first

If your bootloader is MK9 then you don't need to upgrade to latest bootloader which is ND3.Only drawback of being on the older bootloader is that you cannot charge your phone by turning it off it will turn back on.If you don't care about this then stick to MK9 if you want to upgrade to ND3 then you can do that after flashing the ROM.Also my advise for you to is to flash DN3 V5.2 it's the latest release and based on KitKat 4.4.2.
DN3 V5.2 scroll all the way to the bottom for the links,there are two versions full and lite only difference is that lite has bloatware removed such as samsung apps and all that full version has all that but while going through aroma set up you can choose what you would like to keep.
nd3 bootloader to be flashed via pc odin using the bootloader tab only after flashing DN3 ROM.
Thanks very much for your help. Noob question number 2 : how to know what my bootloader is ? And number 3 : I thought the bootloader going with 4.3 was locked and couldn't be changed so I feel lost, could you explain this ? Thanks already !!
Hey, did it, it works flawlessly. Thanks for your help I appreciated it.

Sorry I just happened to check your reply on the thread since you didn't quote my post while replying.Glad it worked out for you.To know which bootloader you are on download phone info app for samsung from playstore it will tell you that.Regarding 4.3 bootloader from 4.3 onwards all bootloaders knox and they can only be upgraded not downgraded so if a newer bootloader after ND3 arrives you can upgrade to that but you won't be able to go back to ND3.
Just lost my wifi/bt & wifi hotspot after using dn3 5+ for a several days.. I return back to 4.3 custom rom and stock rom hoping to fix this problem but no luck..

Oh, yeah sorry I'm not used to quoting. I am really happy with this rom except for two things : battery life is a little shorter (didn't install greenify yet), and there this app always stopping when I play music with deezer : soundalive. Changed it for the other FX something I can't remember but now it's OK. Thanks!
