Recover Note II That Won't Boot Past Samsung Logo - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hullo all!
So, I recently sold my Sprint Galaxy SIII to upgrade to a Note II, and decided upon the T-Mobile variant (my carrier supports T-Mobile wireless calling since they use the T-Mobile GSM network). I browsed eBay for awhile and came up with a very nice looking deal. There is a Note II for 118 dollars, but it won't boot past the Samsung logo. Curious, is there a possibility that this is a hardware issue and not software? If just software, is it fixable without too much work on my end? And, is it worth the risk?
Thanks,

[Q] samsung galaxy s4 with simple mobile????

I currently own a samsung galaxy s2 from tmobile and im using simple mobile. Now i want to buy a samsung galaxy s4 but i can't seem to find out if the tmobile samsung galaxy s4 will work with simple mobile. I'm planing to buy it from best buy so i was wondering if the tmobile s4 will work with simple mobile or the unlocked s4? If anyone know any kind of s4 that will work on simple mobile can you try and find a best buy link for it??. Thank you in advance
Yes, but only the tmobile version of the S4 since it has the 1700 band for both 4G and 3G that simple mobile requires
Not sure if you will get data

I unlocked my T-mobile Galaxy S 4 and now I am trying to use it on Red Pocket mobile. For the life of me I can not get data connection to work.
So I will be curious if you are able to get data connection to work. It seems there is some type of block on this phone and I have posted this in another thread and no one has yet responded with a solution.
I thought there would be many people purchasing the T-mobile phone then using it on AT&T towers to avoid the locked bootloader on the AT&T S4 however I can't not find much information if others are having success on using it on an AT&T mnvo service.

I have a S2 I bought from T-Mobile and use Simple Mobile and want to buy a S4 from T-Mobile also. T-Mobile won't sell the S4 to me outright because I don't have a plan with them. I am going to buy the Google S4 because the first thing I would do is debrand the T-Mobile S4. I really dislike the T-Mobile on/off noises and bloatware.

So I was wondering if this worked? I use a Simple Mobile SIM in my S2 without unlocking it, and when I cut and put the SIM Card in the S4 it detects that there's a SIM card, but there's no data and I can only do "Emergency Calls Only".
So my question is, do I have to get the phone unlocked to use it on Simple Mobile?
You need to get it unlocked.
To the previous poster you can buy a T-Mobile one they just don't give you a unlock code since you are not in their service.
If you downgrade the software you can unlock easily thru a workaround bug using the dialer or can buy a unlock code online.

[Q] Galaxy note 3 Unlocked (N900, N9000 or LTE N9005) Which to purchase

Greetings all,
I am thinking of upgrading and replacing my GS3 with an unlocked Galaxy Note 3 from a third party dealer. I am in Southern California and a T-Mobile customer. Apparently there are several versions, the N900, N9000 and the LTE N9005. I am not sure which one I should purchase. My intention in getting an unlocked phone is so that in the future I can switch carriers easily if I choose. This is not something I expect to do any time soon, but it would be nice to have the option. Obviously, I also want the best performance. Any info would be appreciated.
Thank You,
--Jim

[Q] Buying an unlocked Note 3 for MetroPCS/Tmobile or buying Tmobile Note 3

'm on MetroPCS and I want to move from an S3 to a Note 3. Now I've heard there are problems with KNOX so I don't know if this should be a deciding factor or not.
Should I settle for a Note 2 since it would be cheaper or should I move on to a Note 3. It seems finding one that's 4G and region free is impossible these days.
Has anyone here successfully used an unlocked Note 3 on TMobile for LTE. If so, can you link me the store.

Are the screens the same for all GNexus'?

I bought a Sprint Galaxy Nexus a while ago because it was cheap and I needed an mp3 player (bad esn with sprint). Now I'm going on vacation and need an unlocked phone. I have a SGH T999 Galaxy S3 with T Mobile that is on 4.3 and apparently I'm not going to get it unlocked (I haven't spoken with TMo, but from what I can gather, it isn't likely to work). I was wondering if I could switch the LCD/digitizer from the Sprint G Nexus with one I purchase from ebay with a busted screen but is GSM unlocked (seems like the cheapest route, since I already have the phone). Is this possible, or should I just buy some cheapo unlocked phone for travel?
thanks in advance for read and replying =)
They have both the 4.65 in HD Super AMOLED with RGBG-Matrix (PenTile).
I have only the GSM unlocked version but searching on Internet I can't find differences on their screen.
I think it should fit.

Samsung Galaxy S III SPH-L710 - Can it be flashed back?

Hi,
A few years ago I purchased a Samsung Galaxy S III SPH-L710 off of Ebay. Soon after I paid someone on Ebay to flash it so that I could use it on PagePlus.
I just purchased a Note 5 so no longer need the Samsung S3. Can the S3 be flashed back to 4G to use with other carriers or is it pretty much nothing but a MP3 player now?
Thanks.
Anyone?
