[Q] N900W8 questions - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I'm an N900W8 owner. I have flashed N900T NF1 rom with some download booster and Kids mode functions. However, those functions doesn't work on my phone. I don't know if it is caused by the baseband issue since my baseband is still in N900W8 NB7.
My questions are:
1. Does the baseband affect the download booster functionality?
2. If yes, can I Odin N900T NF1 baseband/bootloader on my N900W8 phone?
Thanks.

Jason, you are fine to flash any ROM as long as it is for your specific model e.g. N7105 (yours) and not for another model. Being on 4.1 you may find your current bootloader causes intermittent problems on a 4.3 ROM. There are two solutions, upgrade your bootloader to MJ5 prior to flashing 4.3 ROM or flash 4.3 ROM then flash drketan's wifi fix.
I also recommend NOT flashing from Sammobile, instead go to Android development forum here on XDA and select an appropriate ROM. That way the Knox feature present in latest 4.3 ROMs can be avoided.
I have deliberately not included links for you - instead read & read install instructions from the ROM thread of your choosing. You will be fine as long as you understand each step & all the terms & points mentioned in ROM thread.
Good luck

Install NB4 or M17 Rom with N900T UVUDNF1 bootloader?

Hi,
Just updated to N900T UVUDNF1 bootlader and ROM and not quite happy with a few things. I was on Jelly Bean till now. Is it possible to install a NB4 or MI7 Rom even though I am on the new boot loader and radio? Would it work? I need to switch to a TW ROM because of WiFi calling.
Thanks much!

NB4 is not jellybean it's kitkat 4.4.2 TW firmware.
MI7 is jellybean 4.3 TW firmware.
Both the NB4 and the MI7 are Tmobile N900T TW roms and both have
the wifi calling option as long as your phone is a Samsung N900T
Tmobile branded device and you are on the Tmobile network.
If your radio/baseband is NB4 then you cannot downgrade to MI7,
however you can upgrade to NE6 or the latest NF1 firmwares which
are Kitkat 4.4.2 TW firmwares and both have the wifi calling feature.
Good luck!

Hi,
I am already on NF1 firmware. Upgraded yesterday(was on M17) and think I may have made a mistake upgrading to it so soon based on my usage of one the new NF1 custom roms.
So I cannot use a M17 (JB) Rom, but could I install a NB4 Rom since it is KK? I have TW recovery(2.7) installed.
Thanks!
In case anybody wondering I installed [NB4][AROMA] Hyperdrive KK RLS3.1 ║║ Hyperdrive just right now and it has been fantastic so far
No issues yet. GPS locked inside the house in a second on the first try.
So NB4 Rom works on an NF1 firmware imho.
Cheers!

Bootloader and CM questions..

Colleagues,
I have an SGH-i317 AT&T Galaxy Note II. It is rooted, has TWRP 2.8.1.0 and SuperSU 2.46 and TitaniumBackup all of which work just fine. I used Odin 3.10. I'm about to flash custom ROMSs CM10.2 and CM11. I have a couple things I don't quite understand before I flash. Hopefully someone can help. In the past, AT&T forced OTA upgrades so I'm at runnign rooted 4.4.2. (Specifics on my firmware are below.)
1. I know Android has broken a third party app's ability to save files to the external SIM. Is this problem inherent ONLY to vendor 4.4.2 builds like AT&T's, or does CM and other custom ROMS that are based upon 4.3 and 4.4 suffer from the same dumb limitation?
2. I've read online that the boot loader software became vendor-signed-package aware and is now a "locked" bootloader. AT&T forced my perfectly good 4.1.2 to go to 4.3 and consequently to 4.4.2. Is it not possible to actually replace that bootloader? If not, why not? Is that not possible at this time?
3. I noticed that for my SGHi317 that there is no such thing a an t0lteatt anymore for CM11 since they have merged their development branches. So will the latest t0lte work for SGH-i317? Do I need to do anything special other that flash it and the correct gapps to the phone?
Thanks for the help!

Good Evening, Everyone,
I just bought a used SGH-i747M 4.4.2 i747MVLUFOB3 3.4.0-1784548 [email protected]" BUILD KOT49H.I747MVLUFOB
Seller said It was on Koodo.
Might I ask you a few questions ?
1) Are there advantages to flash Rogers radio as I'm on Rogers ?
2) What is the newest Rom (Lollipop ? Marshmallow ?) that you have been using Without-Losing the Stock driver to enable the use of a MHL Cable (I have one) ? MHL means: USB->HDMI .
3) Any steps you feel I should know before ? Ok, immediately flash TWRP, then Full backup with TWRP.
Any signed TWRP flashable with stock recovery ?
4) Flashing this will Unlock the Provider ? Rogers' modem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/general/modem-4-4-2-modems-i747-i747m-t2856577
Thank you All.
Flash the latest stock ROM from Sam mobile which can be found here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-I747M/RWC/
Rogers, bell, and telus all use the same bootloader and modem. The only difference between the carrier firmware is some app customisation included with each ROM.
Kit kat is the last official ROM.
Once the phone is running the latest bootloader and modem, you can flash twrp to install a custom ROM.
