Paranoid Android (N7100) to LTE (T-Mobile, ATT Variants) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

So, I hear that you can flash a N7100 rom to our Notes just by flashing the modem? If that's true, where are the modems so I can flash them after I install it or edit the package or something.

Where did you hear that? I am pretty sure the 7100 has different hardware and the roms are incompatible. You can port roms to our versions but as far as I know only 7105, T-Mobile, and att roms will work

N7105 ROMs are OK. No need to flash modern unless the ROM you flash has the modem included (very few do). I wouldn't run N7100 ROMs as there is enough of a hardware difference to potentially cause problems.

Damn, why dont they make ports for our phones? I like PA and Its only for the N7100 =/ Nobody updated the ports in the forum in months.

Are US and International Note II ROMs compatible?

The US variants wont have the multitasking bar. Can we root then flash the cooked international ROMs which provide this instead?
I've been meaning to ask this as well.
just picked up my Note 2 for T-Mobile and would like to know as well. i'm assuming yes since internally the US variants and international are the same except for the modem. i'm itchin to flash a rom on this...
i read post one thread they try flash G7100 rom over G7105 and got stuck in boot loop. You can search in general thread and find out
i specifically want to know about using a TMOB variant on AT&T
Ditto on the OP question...waiting in front of TMO US tore now and hoping to get ARHD 3.0 on this bad boy ASAP!
I sure do hope it would work...

I am sure some dev will cook something up, since all the phones have the exact same hardware (for the first time!), Can't wait...

SAME
:laugh:
I'm itching for root...and a port of paranoid.
Root is fine In my exp, but flashing international ROM gives you the wrong baseband and you loose cell services.

just don't flash the radio (modem). probably needs some RIL fixin' and what not. then i think these roms will work across most variants.
I believe it has something to do with isis. The rep told me that all SIMs are isis now.
To maintain security, I am guessing it has to be the TMO baseband.
I could be wrong.

that's easy. just flash the correct modem from the carrier. this is going to be fun.
Yeah, this should work just fine. Does anyone have the modem files?
I have a request into Samsung for a complete dump for recovery, but no word yet.
I flashed Omega 4.1 which had a modem in it. :/

you might be able to extract the radio out of one of those OTA updates. not sure if there is one or not.

Yes you can flash N7105 ROMs on your T889. They're pretty much the same phone just the N7105 is the international version. Pretty much any ROM you see for t0lte is safe to flash on N7105/ T-Mo/AT&T Note 2's. There is a list of ROMs in the dev section also. Just make sure you always have a backup of your current ROM in case you run into any trouble.

If the rom does not have a option to retain your current radio.. after you flash the rom . you will have to flash the correct t- mobile radio ..
So read the OP Post carefully in that rom thread. or ask the op about this..There have been people say they have lost imei number due to incorrect radio.. So understand what you are doing first..
If your not experienced with android and so on. Its SAFER TO STAY With roms in the development area of this forum... Thou some in the other forums do state to work with what your asking..
Its not always the same for every rom. so there is really not a true yes or no answer to the question..
as said above they will all work.. but might need modem change

Yeah any ROM for t0lte is going to be AOSP, which is pure Google I.e. nexus devices. AOSP ROMs dontn have spen features or multi window features. So if you want those features and want an international based ROM I suggest JediX 16. It can be found in the Dev thread here. It's Samsung TW so it has all the functionality you need and had the latest N7105 4.1.2 base. So check it out. Hope I didn't confuse you.

[ REQ] Please port this tool

This is a tool from international gn2 section. It is intended tobe compatible with any 4.3 tw custom rom, installing all gn3 apps. If one of the very talented devs here could port this to our device, I'm sure it would be appreciated by many here.

I'm not a dev but I'm willing to do anything I can do to assist in making this happen.

Why don't you just use one of the roms that has the Note 3 features inside it already? All you have to do is flash t-mobiles modem on top of the rom install and it'll be just like stock + the n3 features.

Sorry if this is a stupid question: when flashing a modem after custom rom install, does the modem have to be in a .zip format? If so, where can I find a Tmo note 2 modem in .zip format?

Yes it does, but it has to be a signed .zip file. You can just download the latest one that's already been signed here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760975430

[Q] which Roms should I be using? rogers note 2

Which roms should I be using as it appears there is no rogers specific t0lte Roms. There is an att and a T-Mobile one (as well as a generic t0lte) I don't want to screw something up and I've found various answers on google(saying different things) and I trust the people on here so I figured I'd just ask here. (Sorry if this had been asked before search wasn't working)

most of the time the ATT version (i317) should work, but if you just want to be absolutely safe check whether it supports Rogers (i317M).

Thank you very much.
Easy: all t0lte GSM/WCDMA/LTE ROMs are interchangeable. Modems and bootloaders are not.
I don't think CDMA (e.g. Verizon and Sprint) ROMs work out of the box but I haven't bothered checking.

Are modems not included in roms? And I didn't know bootloaders were changeable? (I may misunderstand what a bootloader is so feel free to explain)

Maybe: When in doubt, check the ROM recovery zip installer or Odin tar archive.

They're upgradeable, but that's not something you would be playing with most of the time, if ever. You wouldn't normally encounter this on recovery flashable ROMs, maybe on Odin packages. Look up aboot, tz, param.img and SBL for more details.

[Q] all N900T roms working for canadian note 3 N900W8?

Not that I'm aware of. I mean, I use T-Mobile Kernels on T-Mobile roms without Wifi/NFC/BT patches needed for N9005 roms

so I still need to flash kernel (like compulsion kernel) after flashing the t-mobile rom, right?
T-mobile rom in general work GREAT doing nothing else. I tested few of them and all works, I was force to flush the wi/bt/nfc fix when I used the international version. Also after install the fix, you must install compulsion kernel in order to NFC work

Uh.. I actually don't know the answer to that, sorry. What I do know is that Lean/Compulsion/ColonelX all work fine on my phone Never tried stock N900T. You for sure don't need to flash the patch that you normally would for N9005 roms though.
