How to Get 3G on ATTs Galaxy S3 on T mobile Networks

Okay I have been looking at threads everywhere doing my research on How to get 1700MHz for ATT Galaxy S3 i747. Basically if your trying to use T mobile sim US only on a Atnt GS3 you will only get 2g(Edge). Well i found several ways to get 3G/4G to work! I will be making a Video tutorial for those who dont know much about Flashing and stuff like that. Tutorial will include How to flash files and what to do if something goes wrong! (TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK) i have done it to many devices and it worked successfully, but you never know. I will show you guys everything from scratch how it only gets 2g(edge) to after the whole process when 3g/4g is enabled!
But to make things clear im taking credit for basically doing a video guide which i will upload to YouTube and post here soon. And the other thread was getting messy for new users to find main post

Thanks for this! Few questions:
1. Is it possible to revert back to at&t if needed and how?
2. Is the master reset (complete device wipe including internal storage) a must?
3. What if I'm on the LK3 4.1.1? Will this still work or do I need to revert to the 4.0?
4. After completing this will i be able to flash new roms as desired or will that bork it up?
Oh and... First!

1.Yes you can flash files back to ATT i will be mentioning on my video when uploaded. But usually just find m5d files and flash back the atnt files
2. No factory rest/wipe not required for these files.
3.No you can do it off of any Android version. if for some reason doesnt work. revert back to stock version on your atnt s3
4. yes you can root and flash any rom

no need it automatically show when sim is inserted, But files need to be flashed with odin in order to unlock 1700MHz bands to use tmobile 3g/4g/lte depending on your location you might get 4g/lte speeds or only 3g

Ok my gs3 is running great with 3g speeds! Next question: Should I root this using the methods from the att forums or go over to the tmobile forums and use their root methods? Also can I flash an att rom or does it have to be a Tmo one?

You have to use the ant s3 root file to flash instead of the one given on this form to root. I will be including on my video, but give it try the regular way. If it doesnt work reflash files. It should but if not ill will include in my video for you stay tuned

I rooted using this method while still on 4.1.2 and it worked flawlessly.
I then paid for and installed SuperSU Pro and activated "Survival Mode"
Lastly, after the OTA update was COMPLETELY finished, I followed this simple procedure to get root back again.
SuperSU disables Knox for you on 4.3 which is also nice. I should have qualified here that I am COMPLETELY stock other than root. I have not "frozen" any apps., deleted any Samsung provided files, etc. and I have stock bootloader and stock recovery. This will likely NOT work if you have done any of those things.

Is there a flashable version of this? If not, can somebody make one? Thanks.

I'm running a custom rom and rollouts/updates from vendors freak me out because I don't trust not one of them. Knowing AT&T they have thrown in some bit of encryption that locks the bootloader. I understand this might not be the case this time but I do know none of them can be trusted.
Now if you excuse me, I'm 1/2 done with 1984 the book and my tin foil hat is making me itch.

Guys I need help I am stuck, I am using unlock att with tmobile, I check software update but it days interrupted, and I even tried with kies but it's not connecting at all, I tried 2 pcs.... Any help... What to do to update it... Please

I have a few questions for you and/or those more in the know:
If I were to do this same thing, would I be able to flash a custom recovery (like TWRP) and/or flash custom ROM's/Kernels like I can already do now? One of my main concerns is that the stock kernel doesn't support Boeffla Sound, and that really makes for better audio on this device...might as well take full advantage of that Wolfson DAC...
I have to admit, it would be nice to be able to use pure AT&T stock, but rooted, as a base...this is why I loved the old CleanROM AT&T SE so much...
TIA for any guidance you can give on this.
Side note: after ODIN'ing back to 4.1.2 MA4, it says I have a 741MB update I can take....I'm sure that's this 4.3 update...Culpeper, VA here.

I did the same as marchusdavis but it resulted in a total disaster. After I downloaded the OTA update from AT&T I restarted my phone and it installed through CWM-Touch. At the end it asked if I wanted to ensure root was maintained and of course I said "yes" there (as well as through my SuperSU Pro Survival Mode). When it booted, my WiFi no longer works AND I lost root.
If anyway has any advice on how to get to a stock 4.3 from here please let me know!

Ugh, having trouble updating atm.
Goes up to 30%, then my phone reboots and says
"The update was interrupted" or something like that
On stock 4.1.2 rooted with stock recovery if anyone can help.

I don't believe so, as I am completely stock, bootloader and all. If you want to install other ROMs, you'd need to use a different method I believe. Likely downloading this update either via Kies or something else, and use ODIN to do everything. If you search around a bit on XDA, you'll probably find someone who has done it successfully and posted how. While I like custom ROMs, I have not had a need to use one yet on this device. However, if Samsung doesn't eventually give us Air Command, that might be enough to make me try it!

Is it possible to get the official update from the leak or do I have to downgrade to 4.1.2? I tried updating from the leak but it said it's the latest version.

[MDL Bootloader Only!] How to flash 4.4.2 NB4 Modem

I would like to start off by saying that this is for 4.2.2 bootloader only! If you see a KNOX counter in your bootloader, that means you have a 4.3+ bootloader!
If you want to flash the 4.3 modem, please follow my other guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544612
I have updated the modem package with the official Samsung modem.
This process can be done on any firmware.
Alright folks, back again w/ a tutorial on how to flash the 4.4.2 modem on your T-Mo S4!
*Please make sure your phone is in download mode before starting this procedure.
1. Download my 4.4.2 modem package here: http://goo.gl/09W6fR
2. Unpack the rar file to anywhere on your computer, as long as you can access it.
3. Open up the included Odin and uncheck auto reboot.
4. Click on phone, select the modem.bin, and press start.
5. When you finish the flash, manually reboot your phone back to download mode and flash the modem.bin one more time.
6. When the flash is complete, reboot and you're finished!
It should look like this after the flash:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

If anyone has issues w/ their GPS after flashing, try downloading the Google Specific No-SSL build from http://goo.gl/ha1KC0 and flash it.
Credits to @Fenny for his patched 4.3 modem before the official release.

/fantastic. On 19505 B8 From almost no bars to full bars.

Is this is just the modem and not the LTE radio. Sorry if my terminology is off, but I remember there being problems when the 4.3 radios came out and flashing the LTE radio messed things up.
Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply and clarification. Looking back through my radio files NON-HLOs.bin is the LTE file then.
About to flash per your OP.
Thanks!!
---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------
flashed per OP and baseband is now NB4.
AND I have 3 bars where I normally don't. I hope this is real and won't go away after I click post.
Thanks fenny and shiamatsu!

This can also be flashed if you are running a non-stock kitkat rom with the MK2 bootloader and want to try your luck with the new kitkat modem (gsm). Unless I'm missing something. Why do you call it "patched" modem? did you do something to the modem.bin? I could swear it was only necessary to pull the modem.bin of the kitkat release and flash it, without flashing the non-hlos.

Patched as in I manually took the modem files and updated them using the patches in the OTA. So, these ARE the official modem files.

Is there any suggested way to flash this from the phone directly?

Is the modem partition of the tmobile variant in /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 ?
We could take rockratt's at&t flashable modem zips, substitute the modem.bin with our own for tmo, then edit the partition where the modem is in the updater-script and we'd have flashable zips. No?

If anyone tries mobile Odin or already has please let us know the results?

Thank you so much. So it is confirmed that Samsung did the same thing with the latest (4.4.2) as they also did with the 4.3? Going forward, this will be a necessary flash to allow for the coexistence of the "Knox-free MDL boot loader" and any future "Stock TMo TW 4.4.2 ROMS" ? (By coexistence I mean Roms that have working audio and WiFi and data). Is this correct, or am I way off?

Yeah Samsung did the same thing with this modem. I don't think it's necessary at all to use a 4.4.2 modem on a 4.4.2 TW ROM. I mean, I used a i9505 4.4.2 ROM with a 4.3 modem and it worked fine. But I would do it just to keep myself updated.

Does anyone have any info on downgrading from OH1? I've yet to see any info on it, though it is apparently the latest modem for this phone, and quite frankly, it blows. I tried dropping to the MD4, and lost my MEID and things. Thankfully I had a modem backup and it worked coming back, but man, I hate that I can't update my data profile on AICP and none of the Touchwiz roms list compatibility with this new modem.
I'm new to the Samsung scene and all this extra crap I couldn't do with other devices is confusing as hell at 1am and no sleep or coffee. I know OH1 is what was there after the Stagefright update, but it may have been there when I bought the phone. Ideas and suggestions would be awesome on getting back to stock or switching to TW without losing service programming.
Please keep in mind I don't have a PC but I do have Mobile ODIN and the latest TWRP.

Except there aren't any that I can find. The latest ones all show something other than OD2 and OH1. I assume I'm stuck with AICP for just that reason, which is crap because I can't revert to a stock TouchWiz OD2 that doesn't seem to exist. I haven't got a PC on my truck so I can't use Kies to get it back to actual stock. I suppose I'm screwed then.
Edit: I've seen plenty of s4 and up OD2 and OH1 roms but nothing for the S3. I know it's old as hell but damn, it's still a fairly solid phone.

Oops, my bad... I thought this was the S4 forum (the latest update is also OH1)... You need to use an ND8 or NJ2 ROM. I have 2 of them for the S3 in the Android Development section.

Same situation kind of...
I too had done the ota update to oh1 on my s3 and the modem turned to crap. I rerooted and installed wicked s5 xperience 2.2. used the flash directions except I used twrp no issues at all dirty flash and then clean flash. Modem works way better... I get signal in places I didn't have before.

i got the same problem

I know they have the triband S4 (L720T), sorry just figured they would have the L710T as well.

I returned my s3 to non-rooted stock NJ2 using Odin and it updated to OH1. I don't have service but want to activate it on RIngPlus. I am having this issue where the display flashes off and power button does not respond as it is supposed to. Wondering if a flash to a different rom will fix it. The problem is not new though. Even when drawing the pattern to unlock screen will go off.

[D85120G] Stock ONLY update.zip from D85120E

Mainly posting this here for any devs that want it.
I have removed the check for stock recovery as well as added a build fingerprint check for TWRP to allow this update to take without Stock recovery.
This is the update.zip that T-Mobile pushed out starting today (10/05/15). If you are not on D85120E stock (might work with root, I have not checked) do not flash this as it should fail but it's your choice to risk it.

I would not attempt to flash this over any custom rom. With stock it is as simple as flashing in twrp. However as I said I did not test with root on 20e

Root 20G?

How did you test it than. Coming from 20e without root? How does one flash it without root.... I'm guessing this is a dumb question however

Just received this OTA. Dumb question but how can I update with my rooted, but stock ROM? I'm guessing I simply can't accept the OTA...

So, how long should it take to boot after flashing this? My phone is stuck on the white T-Mobile boot screen. I think its been sitting there for at least 15 minutes.
EDIT: I gave up waiting. I reflashed the stock rom over this and now I'm waiting though the optimizing process. Why didn't I make a backup first??
EDIT2: I redownloaded it, made a backup and tried to flash it again. This time we're good. Optimizing apps as we speak.

Does anybody know if this fixes the "Settings has stopped" error when going to the tethering menu in Settings?

So I need some clarification please and have a couple of questions. I have Tmo G3 (D851) running stock 20e, but it is rooted. I also have TWRP. Can I just flash this update.zip using TWRP and all will be fine or not? I of course will do a full backup before I start, but wonder about data. Has anyone learned whether this works on rooted devices yet? I think I am already Stagefright protected because I run Textra for SMS and MMS (I do NOT run stock messaging), but should I upgrade to this? I look forward to some expert opinions. Thanks to all.

I had unrooted (through supersu script) in order to setup Android pay. I would recommend you do the same, simply because this has the root script at the end of it anyhow...
So, unroot (setup Android Pay if you care to), flash, reroot...move on with life :good:

Did all your data stay intact? After the update I assume you wiped cache and Dalvik? Thanks for your answers.

No wipes necessary ('dirty flash'). Data stays intact. It will optimize all your apps on initial boot though.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I will do a full TWRP backup and move forward. Thanks again

Running rooted stock 5.0.1 20E. I've disabled supersu and booted back into TWRP to flash and I'm getting this error when I try to flash the zip:
"Package expects build fingerprint of lge/g3_tmo_us/g3:5.0.1/LRX21Y/151451134d07b:user/release-keys or lge/g3_tmo_us/g3:5.0.1/LRX21Y/15227151285fc:user/release-keys; this device has LG/omni-d851/d851:4.4.4/KTU84P/2:eng/test-keys."
Not familiar enough with the file system to know exactly what that is, but I'm guessing some file on my device is reporting I'm still on 4.4.4? Could that be a kernel issue? I did at one point have a custom kernel, but I went back to stock after that and re-rooted? Just hoping to avoid a full wipe and redo...
