Hello there, I live in France and I currently own a galaxy s3 but I really want to buy a galaxy note 2, the cheapest way for me is to buy one on pay as you go with another carrier but would I be able to unlock it on my current carrier ??
PS: I can't buy one with my current carrier because I've just upgraded for my GS3.
thanks

Try this link http://www.sammobile.com/unlock/index.php?phone=N7100, as Sammobile is a reputable site this should work. The N7100 is allready listed and it costs 15 euro`s for an unlock. I have not used it myself as i do not buy locked devices.
Please report back if you are going to use it to tell if it works, for other users
'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.
Hello,
Which Note 8 should I buy?
International Version
Unlocked Version
Sprint Version
I heard the processor for the International Version is best I think it stats with an E. Should I get that?
I would like to root.
Does it matter or should I just order one directly from Sprint?
Please Advise.

Get a Sprint GT - N5100 and root it. They are cheap now for 3 year old devices. One of the best Note 8.0 inch tablets.

Will this work with Sprint?
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Factory Unlocked Phone - 6.3" Screen - 64GB - Midnight Black (U.S. Warranty)
This one from Amazon?
Should I buy that one above from Amazon or buy it directly from Sprint?
Can I root both of them?

Dude, you are in the wrong area, go to the Note8 peeps thread. This area is for Note 8.0 devices, and the info pertaining to devices could cause issues if you should follow and use on your device.
I placed an order for my Note 8 using the Verizon website, they sent me an unlocked international version
Anyone else notice this?
It is an SM-N950U not an SM-N950V...
Also has no carrier branding, first time for me getting a Verizon phone with no branding lol

I believe it is carrier unlocked yes
All the snapdragon phones are U, the unlocked version of snapdragon is U1.
Mine also says 950U for Sprint but under system updates, it says its locked to sprint sims only
All U.S. models of the Samsung Galaxy Note8 are SM-N950U .. as shown below:
SM-N950UZKAXAA - Unlocked
SM-N950UZKAATT - AT&T
SM-N950UZKATMB - T-Mobile
SM-N950UZKASPR - Sprint
SM-N950UZKAVZW - Verizon
SM-N950UZKAUSC - US Cellular
Just like with the 6T and 7, we were able to use the One Plus tool to turn tmobile rom to the international rom. I can buy the 7T today from tmobile and was wondering if someone is working on that tool for the 7T yet? you all are wondering why I don't just buy directly from One Plus? I pay for all big purchases in cash and that means buying through tmobile.
I had to buy the T-Mobile variant as well because I'm a T-Mobile employee and get a $300 rebate for doing so, so I'm looking forward to this as well! I remember being surprised at how quickly it came out for the 7 Pro.
Just bought my TMobile 7t and was wondering the same thing pretty sure the international version is already on version 10.0.4

Also T-Mobile's version numbers seem to have no correlation to the international versions. I remember with the 7 Pro T-Mobile was on a number that was like two higher than the international but it was like four versions behind.

I just checked my current build and its 10.0.3 on my t-mobile OP 7T
I currently have the OP 7Pro Sim unlocked running the international software. I’ve been running the developer preview of Android 10 since day 1. I was able to update using Oxygen Update when OnePlus released the OTA. The One Plus phones are as close as I can get to a Nexus. I miss the Nexus line. I remember the pure Google experience for a fraction of the cost
I’m not turning in my OP 7 Pro until I can flash to international. If I decide to switch to the 7T below are the gains and the loss:
First I’ll lose 128 GB of storage but I’ll gain face unlock, finger print sensor. I don’t like to use the face unlock with the 7 Pro because the camera has to pop up.
Oh yeah one other thing the last time I checked, the 7T has a brighter display then the 7 PRO. I have issues with view the display in sun light. Ugh!? Hats off to Samsung their displays are super bright ?
I had the International phone but I drop it had to get insurance replacement and it was a t-mobile branded phone
trying to get the back to International

I would reach out and have them correct that. Having a T-Mobile branded phone when you paid for an international isn't right. This link will help you convert that device into an International one.
