Hey guys and gals, I have the ATT note 2. I want to bring my phone over to T-mobile...and, I'm not quite sure what I need to do. I've searched around and I don't think I found an exact answer / guide on what specifically needs to be done. And I'm not positive that what info I did find was in date.
I'm running Dirty Unicorns for my rom, so I'm off touchwiz. What else is needed besides the obvious new sim? Is it as simple as flashing a new radio?
Sorry for my ignorance; if there is a guide and I'm missing it, I'd love the link. Thanks!
Well I am on Wind Mobile, which is T-mobile north
All I had to do was do the AWS mod. If you look in my threads there is one that has the link to to the site that gives a step by step. There are a few threads that give there. It opens up the bands you need to use.

Hello everyone -
Newbie here at this stuff, and I was wondering if I can download the Universal ROM AKU3.5 and install it on my Verizon XV6700 phone?
Thanks.
P.S: Universal means it's for everyone? or is it another brand like HTC, Apache, etc.

Universal is a BRAND, just as Apache is a BRAND.
I suggest you read the Apache Wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Apache
Not much info on there right now, but it will get you started. Also, do a forum search for the Apache or the XV6700 to find out if other owners are successfully able to flash to a new ROM and the steps they took to do it.
Good Luck!!
Thanks for the reply, one question though, you mentioned about new ROM for XV6700 over Apache forum, and I'm assuming u mean the Sprint AKU2.2 ROM right? If so I already got it flashed in my Verizon XV6700 and working now. What i'm interested in is the AKU3.x ROM. Is it possible at this moment?
Thanks.
That's a question you'll need to answer yourself from reading the thread that has the ROM you want to flash to. Each ROM has it's own prerequisites for a successful upgrade, so I wouldn't even want to presume to know whether you can or can't.
Here's the link to Molski's AKU3.2 ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286988
However, it's in the Wizard upgrade section, so you might not be able to use it on your Apache. The only way to know for sure is to read the ENTIRE thread to see if you could use it on your device.
If so, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY!!
If it's a Verizon phone, it is not GSM based, therefore it is TOTALLY different from the Wizard, and most other HTC devices.
If you can't do it yourself, learn. If you can't learn, wait for someone else to do it, and find out from them.
Now go have fun!
OK, I know there's been other threads, and recommendations to check the wiki, etc etc. I've been looking through old threads for probably a half hour, and the only threads for official rom's I can find are for the MR1 or MR2 updates, or other threads asking for where to download the official ROM. And I can't check the wiki, since it's apparently down right now.
So...is there any chance anyone knows where to get a copy of the full ROM, and will let me know where it is? I want to check out some of NRG's awesome looking ROM's, but not before I get a rollback option in place in case if I do something really stupid and brick my phone. Any assistance would be awesome. Thanks guys.
Hi, I am a noob at this but after looking around on the net for a day, I'm already confused...
OK, here's the situation, its fairly simple... I bought a brand new Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE i9305 (UK EE) but want to unlock it.
It is running Android 4.1.2 and therefore "The Trick" doesn't work as it is missing the final option...
1) I have therefore read that I can downgrade it to 4.1.1 and then use the trick...
2) or I could "Root" it....
Which of these is most straight forward. I don't mind Rooting it cos I gather it's not THAT risky...
So far, I've downloaded Odin but don't know what to do with it....I also just want to use Stock ROM and don't know where I can get that... there are too many other ROMs to choose so just want to keep it simple.
Please can someone help?? I realise other people may have asked this question before, so therefore if someone could point me in the right direction and show me a simple and easy to follow guide, I would be most grateful.:good:
Many Thanks in advance!

Wrong forum. Ask your questions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1563
Hey guys, before I begin, I've attempted to search the forums & I've been unable to find an adequate answer, so if there is an answer out there to my question & I missed it, my bad.
My question is thus. I have a Galaxy S3 LTE, model sgh-t99L T-Mobile branded & I'm considering rooting & installing a custom rom. I have done this previously with a HTC Sensation 4g successfully & I'm comfortable with the procedure. However, I've been unable to find any information on if it is possible to root the T-Mo S3 LTE model, if there is a way to restore the device to stock after rooting it, and the necessary tools to do so.
I'm happy with my device as is, but I like to tweak things, so I'd like to at least know if its possible to root my device & if anyone would be able to point me in the right direction.
*Note at the time of posting this, the search feature was "unavailable"*
Thank you guys for your assistance

Ok, first thing you need to know is this is a question, and as such should be asked in Q&A. Also if you were to look in Q&A you would find a dedicated thread for the T999L that is almost always on the first page. And if you read the stickies you would find a link to it in the roll-up thread.
Not lecturing, just helping so you know for the future. Also, when xda search is down, you can Google "xda T999L info" or similar and it should show up.
Your questions are already answered in that thread btw. Link is also in my Sig.

Hi all...
Trying to find definitive answer, and new to S3s. I have cobbled together an L710 from parts, and now want to install CM10 or CM12. I originally started the project with an i535 from Verizon, and got one with a version that was "knoxed", so could not go to CM.
Is MK3 knoxed? if it is, can I assume (like on the i535) that tryng to install another bootloader will trip and brick?
I have done some searching, but don't see a similar thread that has big warning about Knox, like on the Verizon forum. If anyone knows where that is, please do point me, so I can RTFM.
Thanks in advance...Eric
OK...been reading through the noob thread, and if I am reading correctly, even though 4.3 and later are knox'd, it does matter, since it can be disabled.
Big difference than the SCH-I535 Verizon model, huh?
Am I reading correctly?
Eric
