Tmobile on verizon note 3

I have a verizon note 3. I am on tmobile now. Using a jelly bean rom, I have everything working except for wi fi calling? Anyone know how to get it? or how to load a tmobile rom on the verizon note 3?
I tried loading a tmobile rom but the wifi would not connect?
Thanks,
Kevin

Unless I'm way off here, Verizon uses cdma where tmibile us gsm. How is your Verizon note even working on T-Mobile to begin with?

where you able to get wifi calling? do you have a link to the rom you used?
thanks

Verizon has world phones, that have some GSM capabilities, they also have SIM cards, because LTE is GSM tech and SIM is part of LTE specs, so yeah it should work at least on some frequencies. The only ROM that has WiFi calling, as far as I know is T-mo. There was some guy claiming he loaded pretty much all different ROM's he could get into his Note and it worked, but don't remember details, do search maybe in International Note 3 forum and see if T-mo is mentioned. Not sure if you care, but right now loading ROM's could trigger Knox flag, so maybe research this before hand and I have a feeling soon we may have some new breakthrough, when loading any ROMS is no problem, but not sure if Knox flag can ever be reversed, once tripped, there is no way for now.
BTW I'm not sure if you're aware, once you have WiFi calling, you can call home from around the World on WiFi for free. Don't let other people call you, but you can make free international calls home as long as you're on WiFI. It does not work for local calls. That is outside the new international calling plan T-mo has.

My Verizon Note 3 worked somewhat on T-Mobile
I had my Verizon Note 3 functional on T-Mobile for about a week but ended up buying a used T-Mobile Note 3 after having random service issues. With the correct APN settings on the V Note 3, 4G worked and I was able to browse just fine but the phone was not reliable. Quite often after making a call, it would switch away from 4G (sometimes to Edge) and would take minutes to re-establish a reliable data connection on 4G. During this time, whether it was possible to make another call was a hit or miss. Even when it said 3g, or Edge, calling was sometimes not possible. Usually I would wait a while before trying again. Data was in and out at times. I was on the latest official Android release: 4.4.4. And other users with T-Mobile phones were not having similar issues in the same location so I know it was not location specific.
I thought about downgrading to another rom and rooting, then enabling LTE band 4, but I wasn't sure that would fix the service-related issues. Now with the T-Mobile version, I have zero service problems. We had a similar experience on T-mobile with a Verizon Galaxy S5 and after getting the T-Mobile version, the problems were fixed.
So, IMO, the V Note 3 does work on GSM networks like T-Mobile. How reliable it works compared to the other Carrier specific models is debatable.

Can't get my Verizon Note 4 (n910v) on T-Mobile. No service.

Hello everyone,
I was using the Verizon note 4 on tmobile until I got the 5.0.1 lollipop update. Now it won't register on tmobile at all, and there is an "x" next to the signal meter, indicating that it isn't getting any service. I triple checked my apn settingssettings, network modes, restarting. Nothing works. Did the lollipop update simlock the phone?

Anything is possible culprit..I would take out the battery and make sure the Sim card is inserted properly..and if that doesn't work do a factory reset..

Getting TMobile 4G_LTE Working Again
Hi,
I had the same issue with my Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910V) edition. I needed to go back in and add the APN for TMobile US LTE, then all was well. I have included snap shots of mine for reference. Also, make sure you set your "Network" to Global.
Best of Luck

In my situation, I'm a tmobile user but had the chance to get a verizon note 4 at a cheaper price. At this rate though, I may just sell it and get a tmobile version.

Has anyone figured out the issue?

I got another N910V with 5.0.1 today, it has the same problem (not being able to use other carriers' sim cards). I'm pretty sure the 5.0.1 locks the phone. WTF Verizon??

Sorry you're having that issue. I bought a Verizon Note 4 on swappa the other day that already had 5.0.1 and Build ID ending in BOAF. I was able to get signal on it, no problem. Downgraded to 4.4.4 and service was still available. Have your SIM card replaced at a Tmobile Store to see if that resolves the issue. I'm curious as to your APN settings and whatnot.

Honestly I don't think they did that .. I tested many sim cards and it works all the time.. try maybe new sim?

I have a verizon note 4 and a T-Mobile one too which i bought because of not 100% reception.. My friend updated to lollipop he has verizon note 4 service is working perfectly , try keeping the network mode at lte cdma for little while and then go back to global , or try an at&t sim card in it .. if your phone just got bad esn T-Mobile will not work on it too as T-Mobile do not let any bad esn phone run on their network .. i am 100% sure lollipop has nothing to do with it

Well I can't say for sure either, but there are too many people having the same issue (no service on tmobile after upgrading to 5.0.1) to deny that 5.0.1 has anything to do with the problem. Also, the ones that are saying lollipop has nothing to do with sim lock, can you guys check if you're using 5.0 or 5.0.1? The ones that are saying that they stopped being able to use the N910V on tmobile are all on 5.0.1.
EDIT: If you're on lollipop + tmobile on a n910v, can you tell me if you're using the new ISIS sim card?

trouble with note 4 mobile hotspot
Need help, when my verizon note 4 was root, I was able to turn on xposed tether for mobile hotspot. I was able to connect other devices to it, but had limited connectivity meaning no internet. I tried everything but had no idea. I almost want to give up note 4 even love it. Is it because xposed tether does not work on note 4? I have same issue with foxi. Is sqlite editor better, can someone help me with setting for sqlite for Verizom note 4 to try? Thank you

Has anybody been able to get it to work on metropcs? I get an x next to the signal bars. I used the fast.metropcs.com apn and i tried with the 3 network modes ... I was able to get it to work on tmobile but not metro

Found solution.
For those having issues with not service when changing SimCards after 5.0x.
The solution is http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
Just disable Verizon activation (VzwActivationAgent apk) app. NO ROOT NEEDED
I also disabled some Knox services that where already pre-marked.
Now I have service with T-mobile Sim and don't have the annoying "unkown sim" message.
The tool is created by @gatesjunior so, show your appreciation on his thread.

I followed the instructions and also disabled "VzWActivationAgent.apk", still unable to get TMobile sim to work. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Verizon Note 8 on Cricket - Has anyone done this?

I bought a Verizon Note 8 which are factory unlocked and simply put my cricket sim inside and changed the APN settings to what the Cricket website recommends. However I'm have issues getting LTE Service and voice quality in general.
Has anyone every encountered this with the new galaxy devices on cricket? Should I look to flash the unlocked or ATT firmware to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I just bought a Verizon Note 8 off craigslist. Works fine w/ my Cricket service. Didn't have to fiddle w/ APN settings either. I got LTE. I don't like the stock Verizon ROM however, I'm gonna put either the SM-N950U1 stock rom or a custom ROM.

Will a Verizon Note 8 work if you put a SIM card from cricket in?

I used a Verizon s8 plus on at&t for months. Flashed the unlocked firmware and had zero problems

I realize this is an old thread, but I also have a VZW Note8 being used on the Cricket network. I flashed the U1 firmware, which workds great, but calls are handled over H+, data over LTE. Cricket/AT&T is sunsetting their 3G network beginning 2020, so this will cause issues with my calls. Does anyone know, is there a firmware I can flash to enable VoLTE over the Cricket network?

Verizon Note 8 running on Cricket
Cricket wireless ran smoothly and fast, but I don't like Verizon bloatware. Flashed it with a SM-N950U1 bloatware free and reinstalled Cricket sim card and no problems, but one a cracked screen that still works.:good:

Yup it works
only problem is update to pie made free wifi tethering go away. Haven't figured out how to get it back yet. My LTE and voice work fine, also my APN settings happened automatically. Maybe delete the APN you created and let it do what it does. I'm so not an expert, but mine works fine.

I had Verizon Nougat on my Note8 originally... Using it on Cricket. I switched it to the unlocked carrier Oreo ROM several months ago. Wifi tethering worked. I upgraded to Pie last night using Smart Switch on my PC. It upgraded my Note8 to the unlocked carrier Pie ROM. Wifi tethering still working for me.

original tmobile devices - is your wifi calling still working?

Trying to problem solve here team.
My verizon branded s8+ which I switched to tmobile via carrier switching and firmware flashing, got a tmo update today, and now no longer has wifi calling. I've reflashed new tmo firmware and carrier switched again but no dice.
I'm trying to find out if people who have an original tmobile s8+, got the update and now are on G955USQU2BQK5, do you still have wi-fi calling? If so, it's likely a specific device issue like I'm having and i'm screwed.
Any help/response would be appreciated. Thanks!
tldr - is your device originally tmobile? if yes, does your wifi calling still work after the latest update and now your baseband is G955USQU2BQK5? Thanks! :highfive:

Yes, mine is working fine. Original T-Mobile S8+ and I did the update yesterday. I just did a call on wi-fi prior to typing this.

No problem.

Unlucky with Carrier Options on AT&T in USA after flashing.

NOOB / FNG here and my brain is fried. I have purchased at Best Buy an unlocked GS9 SM-G960U1. I have flashed with ODIN and AT&T firmware. I get the ATT bloatware and welcome screen but no IMS Features, VOLTE, WiFi Calling etc.
I have tried different versions of the AT&T FW with same results.
My AT&T SIM card is 2 years old and out of my ATT Unlocked GS7, which has all working IMS features.
Forgive me if this is a repost. I have read and studied and cannot figure where I went wrong.
Thank you in advance for more of your wisdom here. It is much appereciated!!!

When you flashed the AT&T firmware did you have your sim card in the phone? The other thing you can do is have At&t hard set your Galaxy S7 IMEI in their system(put the sim card back in your s7 and call AT&T and say your hd voice and wifi calling isn't working, and they will ask for the IMEI).

How long has it been? It sometimes takes a few days for some features to show, especially from T. I'm guessing you power cycled your phone with the Sim card in it also.

Yes, I flashed the phone with the AT&T SIM card inside the phone. I called AT&T and spoke to a rep who wanted to help and put in a ticket for me but he was told no and that I had to flash the FW on my phone.
Rebooted and waited several days, IMS setting still greyed out in the *#*#4636#*#* dialer.

Did you call while the sim was in the S7? Do your settings look like the attached?

Yep, I can call out on WiFi Calling with my S7. Works great.
And those wifi options I do have on my S7.

So this is the mobile carriers working end users over.
According to Android and Google the idea behind Preferred Carrier Options and Unlocked handsets was to be that each carrier would have an App that the end user could down load to use these IMS features on their unlocked hand set.
To date, no carrier in the USA does this. So why lock it down?
The idea was not to do what AT&T is doing.

Also, the second I remove my AT&T SIM card and insert my MINT SIM card my IMS settings become available to select/unselect.....
