International N7105 firmware confirmed working on i317!!!

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.

I'm confused now. Is there an international ROM we can just flash onto our at&t device?

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...

4.2.2

So I read that an official update is coming for the note 2. However I have since left att, unlocked my phone, enabled AWS band and rooted . (How ever I'm running stock room) when this update comes out. Do I do it. ..do I wait for a cracked release. ... If I do it do I lose aws... do I lose my root.
Thanks for your help.

Rooted devices generally do not play well with OTA updates.
You would want to be in stock configuration to take an update, in order for a complete backup to be made, then root again.
Unless of course you want to remain stock.
But either way, updates while rooted and modified "WILL" give you issues.....g

What about the aws bands? Would I lose that?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

Returning to stock yes...
Taking an update while rooted with custom files ??....unknown.
It would largely depend on the type of update, and the files being replaced. We have no way of knowing what Samsung will push to us, if ever....g

It was announced today on their facebook page... note 2 and galaxy 3 getting 4.2.2. By the end of may....

Often they refer to our overseas neighbors and not the US market.
I have no doubt it will come to us, but when is the question.

stop at&t ota update notice from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2?
Hi everyone,
I hope this is the correct forum. How do I stop getting the OTA update notices from At&t on my SGN2? I rooted it in March and I know that accepting At&t's updates will have negative affects. The notice pops up everyday all day and it's annoying. Does anyone know if there is a 4.2.2 update available on this site for my rooted SGN2 and if this will stop the notice from At&t? If so, will you post a link? I already have TWR installed.
Thank you,
tsairox

Titanium Backup (paid version) will give you option to "freeze" AT&T download.
This will stop notice.

I've had TB Pro for years. Never messed with it much. This worked fabulously! Thank you so much! No more annoying AT&T notifications!

I would also be very careful in updating. Galaxy s4 has a locked bootloader. I would not be surprised if 4.2.2 update for note 2 also locked the boot loader. I would rather apply a rooted and confirmed 4.2.2 update from here one xda once a developer confirms it's safe or has their own version.

I'm sure that won't be an issue. If I recall correctly, the devs on the s4 managed to fix that fairly quickly. Also, we have awesome devs here

I have an s4 also and the boot loader is not unlocked it is just a bootstrap fix like Motorola phones had. Samsung can easily patch the exploit in newer firmware releases both for galaxy s4 and note 2 if they choose to lock the bootloader always safer not to apply official ota updates. Any boot loader signed with a 2048 key is unbreakable currently unless somebody working for Samsung leaks an unlocked boot loader out.

To root or not to root?

Upgraded from a note 2 to a 3 and I'm loving it. I always root and are coming from jedi roms. Is the note 3 that noticeably better rooted? I've read alot of threads where people have many problems. I genuinely wanna root asap but are hesitant. Someone help push me over the edge to flash land

Ok. Let me push you over the edge. I had never considered rooting a phone until I got the note 3. I decided to root so I could customise the pen widow ap. It has been the best thing that I have ever done with a phone. Yes the note 3 can be a little temperamental when attempting to flash ROMS but there is a lot of support and if you need help pm me and I will help to get you going. Going to put in a plug here for my ROM of choice. JEDI ROMS are good but I have not found a better setup so far than X-Note. Any questions about it and I will be glad to answer. Don't let other people's problems change your mind about rooting. This is a must root device.

Thanks mate, is that compatible with tmobile. I checked thread and it looks pretty sweet. I liked the air command themes. I got some questions, I'll pm you

Totally worth it man. Very easy to do as well. Not only the customizations mentioned above but also aosp roms and such are wonderful. W03 Slim is fantastic!

It's so easy to unroot the phone and go back to stock, so you might as well give it a shot and see how you like it. Unless you're completely incompetent then nothing too bad should come out of it. I personally like having my phone rooted without any custom ROMS. But that's just me, a lot of others would say different.

I am hoping to unlock SIM for a t-mobile phone / region unlock. I understand I can do that by rooting it. Can I root and leave it with stock firmware, and will I get OTA updates? Also, is it safe and easy to unroot. IF it's unrooted, will they know it was rooted (i.e. warranty void?)
Thanks

Rooting doesn't void warranty either. I was skeptical too. Rooted on 4.3 and loving it.

Waiting for my phone. Hopefully it's still on 4.3. So can someone confirm I understand everything all this correctly.
I can root with Root de vega (if still on older firmware) and it won't trigger anything to void warranty. I just want to use region unlock to try unlock the sim/region. After that...I can either unroot? or keep it root. IF I keep it root...but I want the latest firmware (not custom)...is that possible? I've seen video about flashing the firmware from Sammobile with Odin which brings it back to unroot stock...but what if I just want the newest stock firmware without unrooting? Do I need some other recovery and flash something else? Will putting in different recovery cuz the warranty tracker to trigger?

Rooting a T mobile Samsung Galaxy S4

Hi I am coming over from the sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 to T Mobile. when I had Spring and the S3 it was rotted and running The Peoples Rom. I know I can;t run TPR with T Mobile ( already asked Kennyglass ) BUT I DO want to root my T Mobile Galaxy S4, if nothing more so I can run Ad Away and get rid of those darn ads.
And I'd like to run a firewall so I can keep certain teenagers in my neighborhood out
I need complete instructions on the rooting process too, I'm 51 years old and not exactly the best at remembering stuff anymore

Verizon SM-T807V Root?

Hi I was just wondering about the Verizon version of this tablet SM-T807. I just got this one from VZW, and I've searched everywhere to try and understand what root methods are available and it's proving to be kind of confusing. I've rooted all my phone's for the past 4-5 yrs Droid, several Samsungs, LG..and have never had to ask a question on any of the threads here...I have plenty of experience using Odin, ADB...etc and alot of other tools. But everything I find seems to be for the 800, 805, or 807 for Sprint and ATT. The Verizon rep started the lollipop upgrade before I left the store, so I hadn't been able to try the unified tool or any other possible methods since I need to downgrade to KitKat to make it all alot easier. So I guess my question is, is there any method that may work for my tab now that's running 5.0.2, and if not is there an Odin-able image for the VZW variant to flash back to stock? I just keep reading conflicting info from different places and don't wanna brick it beyond repair. Thanks for any help.

That rep has just killed any chance you had of getting root.
There are no other root methods available for your device.

I don't think the Verizon tablet has root for KitKat either?
I started looking into this last night also since I'm considering Verizon as my next carrier.

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the reply.

is there any root to date that works, i still have a 4.4.2 and i just got the tab today.
Im going to get forced into the update sometime in the next day or so now that the tablet downloded it.
I've spend 6 hours so far trying to root this.
No luck so far.

Just copy the update to another folder then disable any more future updates. Updates are not compulsory.
What have you used to root, there are several options for root.

Well when you come up with the bootloader unlocking method you'll be a hero.

I wish this could be downgraded to kitkat, the lollipop on t807v is causing problems with my touch screen and I have read a lot of comments from users facing a touchscreen problem after the upgrade. Lets pray its sooner !
Thanks

My t807v is freezing a lot too. I bought it on eBay and thought it was defective but it seems to be a widespread problem I'm going to try to take it to Verizon and ***** at them because mine freezes every 10 seconds or so. Makes it unusable.

It can't be rooted without a system exploit.

It took 2 years to exploit the verizon note 4, shouldnt be much longer on the 807V

Is there any update on this? Do we have a stock rom to downgrade to 5.5 available
