Hi all,
I just got a N900T which is sim unlocked
Device status is official
android version 4.3
baseband version is n900tuvubmi7
kernel version is 3.4.0-1670611
built number is jss15j.n900tuvubmi7
I personally have H2O service and would like to use this On H2O, what sort of steps I will have to do to upgrade this to the newer version of kitkat, root it, and possibly upgrade the modem to take advantage of ATT LTE, and a ROM which is provider neutral, deblouted, stable and fast.
Ill appreciate any help

Step 1: Chainfire Auto Root to root your phone

Step 2: RegionLock Away to SIM unlock it

As for upgrading the modem, I don't think it's necessary.
This is from the thread that discusses using the T-Mobile Note 3 on AT&T:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2464498
Will LTE work on AT&T?
Many people have confirmed that LTE works. There is no speed difference between an AT&T branded phone and the Note 3. Documents obtained from the FCC and also on T-Mobile's site say it supports the frequencies used by AT&T. Do NOT give AT&T your IMEI to your Tmobile Note 3. If you do, AT&T's system will remove your LTE data even though it works perfectly. Give them another AT&T Android IMEI if you have to or if you are coming from an Android phone don't even talk to them. Just remove the SIM in your old phone and put it in your new phone. If you mess up and give them the IMEI some people have gone to the store and gotten the IMEI off the demo unit then gone home and called ATT to change the IMEI. You can also get an AT&T Android LTE IMEI from a family member or friend's phone. It will not effect their service in any way. One user also reported explaining the issue to a rep that changed the default plan and manually made it a plan with LTE. I'm not sure that a lot of reps on AT&T's front line know how to do this though.
What APN settings will my Note 3 need for AT&T and MVNO's?
NAME: ATT Phone
APN: phone
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri
Then go to the home screen menu setting, more networks, mobile networks, network mode and change to LTE/WCDMA/GSM.
Although, you might want to try the settings that H2O has on their website to see which one gives you better speeds:
https://www.h2owirelessnow.com/mainControl.php?page=dataManualConfig
Step 3: Install ROM of your choice. My recommendation, Hyperdrive ROM. It gives you Aroma installer, which lets you customize basically every aspect of your install. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2709867
I hope this gives you the info you need to get up and running.
Thanks a Million

I am having great difficulty in setting up MMS settings for AT&T on an unlocked TP2 from Verizon.
I was able to get the unlock code from verizon and the phone is now unlocked with the newest wm 6.5 rom that was released a few weeks ago.
I have been able to set up the data settings for ATT and can get data and internet but only on Edge(I know 3g for ATT doesnt work on it)
The problem is that I cannot edit the mms settings. It is currently locked and does not allow you to edit or create a new setting.
I do not know how to do a registry edit so cannot do that unless someone showed me the program and how to do it.
any help on getting mms settings for att to work on verizon touch pro 2?
Flash a custom rom
Which custom ROM would you suggest? I am not sure if I would need to get a CDMA ROM or if I can just flash a GSM type.
Sorry if I sound kinda new but my last experience was the iphone with one OS so I am at a loss when it comes to flashing roms and types.
CDMA type. I am a GSM user and the GSM roms have a setting that auto configs for the network.
To unlock the MMS server settings change this in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\UI
and changed the key
EnableServerEdit from 0 to 1
What specific program do I need to change the registry? Sorry fit the questions I am just unsure where I would go in to make the change.
SKTools!
If you have read my previous posts you will know that I recently tried to update to Doom Kernel and Ice Bean. I couldn't get wifi or 3G working so I tried flashing Arc Knight and Jelly Sandwich. I got Wifi working but still no 3G.
Using flashtool I changed to stock .431 firmware but I still don't get 3G. I live in South Korea and have a South Korean model Arc (LT15i) on SK Telecom. I think they use a slightly different protocol here for cellular communication (wikipedia says UMTS/HSPA), could that be the problem? I have searched the forums and the internet and not been able to find any original Korean Firmwares.
Please help, I really don't want to be using the stock firmware because of all the crappy bloatware! (I should mention that 3G/HSPA was working on the stock gingerbread firmware I was using before.)
Info: the phone's SI number is 1247-0400
Thanks
Edit: Just had a look around on some Korean sites and it seems that the global rom is working OK for them. Could it be the internet settings are not downloading from the operator correctly?
Are your antenna at WCDMA/GSM setting??
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
Yes it is. I think it was something doom kernel did
OK... after much digging around and testing of my Korean skillz I fixed it! As I previously suspected the internet/data settings were wrong and the 'download internet settings' button wasn't working.
In case of anybody else with a Korean SK Telecom phone here is what I did:
Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names
Use the menu button to bring up the option of making a new connection and use these settings:
Name: SKT
APN: web.sktelecom.com
mmsc: https://omms.nate.com:9082/oma_mms
MMS Proxy: smart.nate.com:9082
MMS Port: 9093
Authentication: none
Menu button and save. Return to the Access Point menu and select SKT.
That's it!

Did you check the APNs to make sure the internet.windmobile.ca APN is there already?
(If you haven't go to: System Settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names > check for Wind CA)
If you don't have Wind CA, press Menu > New APN > and in Name type Wind CA, APN: internet.windmobile.ca, MCC: 302, MNC: 490, APN type: default,supl, APN protocol: IPv4 .
Hope this works!
HOLY! Thank you so much Man you just saved me thanks a lot!!!1
Hello!!!
This is my first post to the forum and I hope someone can help me.
I currently have a Samsung S3 i747 on Rogers (Canada) which uses the same frequency as AT&T in the states. I want to switch over to Wind which is the equivalent to T-Mobile.
The hardware itself is compatible however I am having trouble enabling the band. I followed the following post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2344627 thoroughly but I am having trouble getting QPST to locate my phone.
The QPST version I have is 2.7 Build 378 and I have tried the newer version but same result.
Through device manager, I can see my phone
Within QPST, I add the new port:
I then get the following message of NO PHONE:
I am at a loss as I do not know what else to do. I can't afford a new phone right now and I do not mind the S3 for all of its problems.
My drivers are up to date. I am on Windows 8.1 as I heard the OS could be the problem but I could be wrong.
Has any one ever been able to enable this band on the S3?
Please help

Yes, I used these
Assuming you're using a Videotron LTE compatible SIM card, you may need to contact them and have your phone re-provisioned.
