For any of you who want to have your cake and eat it too, you can now flash the international N7105 firmware onto your AT&T branded i317!
What does this mean? It means that you can give AT&T the middle finger by having unlocked firmware with none of the restrictions and bloatware. By extension, this also means that you can benefit from the development going on for the international devices.
Finally, this also means that you can reap all those benefits without sacrificing LTE access in North America!
Now that this has been confirmed to work with the i317, I wonder if the T889 is next...
Check out the main thread over here.
This is nothing new.
Well known information.

news to me. Just got device a week ago. Was wondering why most mods were compatible.
Why do we have only 5 of the same roms in development section?

We tried flashing the international N7105 firmware onto the i317 using Odin, but that didn't work. However, the procedure seems to be working if, instead of using Odin, you flash a re-packaged stock N7105 firmware using a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP, just like flashing any other custom ROM. Once that's done, just flash the AT&T modem/kernel, and you're all set!
Unfortunately, there hasn't been much development for the N7105 yet. Root, CWM, deodexing and all the other basics are there, but that's all for the moment. Devs are still trying to work out N7100/N7105 inter-compatibility. N7100 firmware will flash to an N7105, but the modem won't work, so that's pretty useless, and that's what we're all trying to fix.
At least, in the mean time, you can enjoy a stock N7105 experience in North America without AT&T/Rogers sticking their fingers in the pie
Is the 7100 the non LTE version and 7105 LTE? If this allows us to get FM Radio on our North American Note 2s, I'm going to be very happy!

Very nice.
Upon thinking about it. I believe there is a way to use this method to give us international firmware and also retain our NA CSC's so we keep carrier specific settings such as Wi-Fi access, Fast dormancy and the like too.
Currently working on it and will get back to people once I am finished.
Glad to see someone else was working on this as it was something I wanted to get around to messing with but have been busy poking into Bootloaders and dialer codes.

Agreed however, no one knows for sure it isn't present in our devices and that Samsung just removed the driver at the request of the greedy NA companies. They don't want us listening to something for free when they can force us to connect and use data. Maybe the driver is in the 7105 firmware...
My phone is rooted, what is so good/different about the international version?

Did what Miscom had done and got the latest GT-I7105 Unbranded firmware release LJ5, with this one I injected the Canadian CSC's and everything seems to be working except a few carrier apps that check for the proper model number they would force close on me.
Going over this firmware, seems okay but doesn't seem to be any better then the stock LJ2 that came with the phone.
My main hope with using an international firmware would be unlocked dialer codes, and I was correct in my testing, any carrier locked dialer codes are controller within the firmware + check what CSC you have as well.
Got some working that I couldn't before hand, however the main one that I wanted to use was the *#7465625# to view network lock status, it was one that I couldn't get working, but I believe that it wasn't working because my phone is already a factory unlocked one so to really know for sure I'd half to have one that is known to be locked.
Anyways, glad this experiment worked, I will definitely be looking at this again in the future, however I know that the Samsung Canada is planning on releasing an updated firmware for the phone at the same time or soon after the Canadian S3's get their Jelly Bean updated, and it is also rumored that they will be 4.1.2 as well. So with this possibility I will be going back to Bell's Stock firmware and see what we get in a few weeks.

To my understanding, yes. I am downloading it now and will be flashing it shortly. I'm curious if the Wallet issues were NA specific to ATT as well? I should reread those threads to see what the problem was...
Does it not piss anyone else off that the Samsung galaxy s3 for AT&T still hasn't gotten 4.1.2 or even any news on it. The galaxy s2 even got the update for AT&T, so how is it not yet out for the s3.
It's very annoying indeed. However, there's plenty of custom touchwiz roms with 4.1.2 features and they're debloated.

Not being from the US I can comment on ATT, they are probably making sure the N S A can still gather information on the general public......

Yes it does.
Did you call, email, or contact them in any way to let them know of your displeasure?
They don't read these forums. If you're unhappy, you need to let THEM know. I did - and if enough paying customers threatened to go elsewhere, they'd pay more attention.

Yea I spoke to them, but they kept giving me the BS that they were waiting for bug fixes for the sgs4 to be fixed. Theyre 2 different devices, so why does that affect the s3's update?
One thing at a time,I guess. And if it bothers you that much, maybe look at the nexus line of phones
the only way i can sleep at night is hoping their just skipping str8 to 4.2.2

Because they probably only have one software team, and only work on one Samsung device (or just one device - period) at a time.
How to get the Samsung 4.1.2 update:
1. Root your phone with chainfire's CF autoroot method.
2. Install chainfire's app Mobile Odin from the play store.
3. Download the T Mobile T999 update from samsung-updates.com.
4. Flash everything from the update EXCEPT the modem.
Enjoy the 4.1.2 goodness...

Yeah, I've seen that one. My response was aimed toward the most "stock" experience. Not everyone wants deodexed/busybox/toggle mod/etc...
Personally I'm using the tmo rom, with the T-Mobile bloat uninstalled, Google keyboard, and aosp mail.
how to flash the system without the modem ? because the download rom is one part
I read some where yesterday the reason for the delay of the galaxy s3 and note update is because a new touchwiz is being developed and is supposed to bring us up to 4.2.2.. Time will tell there is alot of B.S. on the internet as we all know.

Samsung released 4.1.2 to the carriers awhile back and all the carriers but AT&T have completed testing and pushed it out. The delay is entirely on AT&T's side at this point.

Roms has nothing to do with getting the phone to work on T mobile.

You would need the tmobile rom. . .
You also need to unlock the sim card.

Yea you re going to have to flash a carrier file for that. Also make sure your phone is sim unlocked.
If you want to keep all the stock touchwizz apps from samsung you want to flash a touchwizz rom.
I recommend JEDI, Its stock, fast and comes with all the features anyone would want.
Wait we can get Wifi Calling on the ATT version with a carrier pack? What is this wizardry and how can I do it?
Carrier file = tmobile rom.
Does anyone know how much of a difference there is between the international ROMS and the T-Mobile ROM ?
I don't think they will work the 3g and 4g bands are not the same

If its the same as the S4 LTE then all you have to do is use a TMO kernel.
I'm pretty sure the GN3 Int LTE & TMO will be the same since they are Snapdragons compared to the Int non LTE with Enyxo (sp).
Bands have nothing to do with ROMs since you can add your carriers APN yourself.
With that said, we will find out soon enough. Just have to be patient since they device just got released.
This is probably why I'm waiting a few wks to months to buy the GN3.

Ah, and yes that is very true. I'm gonna guess at least a month or more before we start seeing custom kernels. All depends on devs getting one anytime soon.
I'm so impatient, I knew reading these forums would be bad. Yes, it's always better to blame someone else instead of yourself, LOL. I just came home with the white GN3.

Congrats on your phone. Im really considering getting the TMO version and use on ATT. I cant imagine being stuck with 1 rom with no root. thats horrid
how can i check on my s3 if its LTE version?
the fastest easiest sure fire way is to open the battery cover to your phone and remove the battery and check the white sticker.
The model will say SGH-T999L if its LTE.
SGH-T999 for a regular original S3 with no LTE.

Yes, all models can get the ROM running currently. But only the original modem without LTE (the SGH-T999) works with data. '
November 25th is the LTE release date officially. As for SGH-T999 users, we DO NOT know when we're getting it, but we can either speculate the same day, or within the month.

I'd not say they have left out. The fact that I already got the new 4.3 Modem tells me that the whole 4.3 updated to T999 is right around the corner.
