I've got a locked Samsung S10 plus and a Motorola x pure edition unlocked and rooted and I cannot get NFC to transfer any files from one phone to the other vice versa is there a way around this?

I bought a used Verizon Note 3 and the shop I bought it from set it up to run on Tmobile ... I would like to try a Tmobile ROM and want to know if that will cause any conflicts with my service from Tmobile. I don't care about wifi calling, if that makes any difference ...
All responses appreciated!
Not possible to install TMO Note 3 roms on a Verizon Note 3, as long as your Verizon Note 3 has LOCKED BOOTLOADER. I don't think there's a way to unlock it. Bad Verizon, Bad ATT, pure evilness.

I think you can get around it with Side Strap. That's what I have on my rooted Verizon Note 3.
Took a Sim card from a new AT&T Note 5 manually set to gsm/LTE mode, manually set up APN. Not only did LTE work perfectly it also instantly connected to my micro cell.
att and tmobile should work just fine, just like droid turbo and droid maxx. but they will be tied to verizon software.

Right. It you want AT&T and T-mobile, the better choice would be the Moto X Force -- the OTHER Kinzie.
You can unlock the bootloader, root, etc.
Hi everyone, hope will get my Moto Z play but I don't know which should I get.
I'm living outside USA. We have 3g only. to LTE in country. so there are propositions to get Moto Z Play Droid (Verizon I assume) unlocked for any carrier.
And MOTO Z Play international version.
How do you think, will I have some issues if I get Droid? Firmware compatibility, battery life, something else?
the price is the same.
Thenk you in advance
Why would you even get the Droid, outside of the US mind you, instead of the International version?

Yup i agree. Anyone should go for international ver.
For wider compatibility of frequencies
I'd imagine the Droid version would have more bloatware you'll not need as well.
Do not get the Droid version. You will not be able to unlock it or potentially even root it (you probably can currently with dirty cow). The only reason to get the droid version is if you need CDMA support, which almost all countries outside of the US (except china) use GSM.
There's no reason at all to get the Droid, you'll get a completely locked bootloader and bloatware, there's no benefit to it.
But if you use Verizon (me) then I have to get the droid version and stuck with a locked bootloader and no root until someone finds an exploit?
I have AT&T service.
I live in the country and my only internet service is on my phone (Satellite sucks). I can get 4G in certain spots in the house.
I'm considering buying a Verizon Note 4 (because it's cheaper than any AT&T Note 4).
I did this last year for my wife's phone and had no real problems switching to AT&T -- sim, data, phone, hotspot... all working. The problem is all the Verizon software. I want to get the myAT&T app so I can check account level data usage (and if I must then I'll add all the extra crap AT&T loads).
I'm considering buying another Verizon Note 4, rooting it, and replacing the software with AT&T firmware.
I have some questions:
1) Is there a certain version of hardware to watch out for? (I've read that some Verizon Note 4's LTE hardware is not compatible with AT&T -- is this really a problem?)
2) Are there many problems attempting to root a Note 4?
3) Is there an up-to-date AT&T firmware download site?
4) What's the best (and up-to-date) site for instructions on updating the firmware?
Should I just pay the extra $100 and get an AT&T model?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
as a user of BOTH the AT&T and Verizon variants of the Note 4
The Verizon Note 4 is better for personal customization
AT&T Note 4 for the full band use
1. no, I am using AT&T service on my Verizon Note 4. Full 4G LTE service at my city, messages, and calling is not a problem as the Verizon variant has both CDMA and GSM radios
Meaning, the Verizon Note 4 is compatible with AT&T and T-Mobile
You just need to set up the APN yourself
But a google search will fix that problem and AT&T has the APN info on their website
so everything works in the end
2. only need to unlock the bootloader and use moderate use of ADB
but ONLY if you have the Samsung eMMC motherboard in the in the Verizon Note 4
there is Samsung's and Toshiba's
Only the Samsung one can be bootloader unlocked
No luck for the Toshiba variant
3. there is a way to overcome that. Custom ROMS, the thing is. There is no AT&T ROMS for ANY Note 4 except its own phone
And you can just install an ASOP Custom ROM (i.e, Lineage OS, EmotionOS, CyanogenMod 14.1, CyanogenMod 13, etc...) and install the AT&T apps from the Google Play Store, or remotely remove all the Verizon bloat with Titanium Backup with TouchWiz (That's what I personally did)
either you are a modder, or an average user
If you are a modder, get the Verizon variant, unlock the bootloader (If you have the Samsung eMMC), install TWRP, and install an ASOP ROM and install the AT&T apps on the GPS or root the phone with Samsung's TouchWiz and remove the Verizon Apps with Titanium Backup
If you are an average user, root, custom ROMS, TWRP isn't a necessity to you
Soi just get the AT&T Note 4
Me, I will NEVER buy another AT&T phone for as long as I live
I'm done with AT&T locking bootloaders
But it's up to you my dude
I'm just stating my opinion
BTW, Verizon and AT&T do have different hardware
Install Verizon Software into an AT&T phone or install AT&T software into a Verizon phone
WILL mess up the device
and probably brick it because even if both of them have locked bootloaders by default
They do have differences in the booting sequence and installing a bootloader into a phone that does not support the software
You WILL hard-brick the devices
or not
I really don't know and i would not want anyone to try it out
I hope this answers your questions
Peace my dude
Hi. Idoont know if you can flash at&t firmware on vzw note 4 but I do know its unnecessary. The Verizon model isn't sim locked . all that's needed is at&t APN info to be entered into network settings. If the Verizon apps bother you flash an international base (910f/g) . they have no carrier bloat. If you use a specific at&t app (god I can't imagine why) it can most likely be ported
Hi! I'm using the Verizon Variant of the Moto Z2 Force on Red Pocket Mobile right now. I'm using AT&T towers and everything works great except LTE. I can force it into LTE, but my calls won't work. When it's in LTE/WCDMA mode it falls back on H+ everytime. While H+ isn't slow and has been good to me, i'd still like to get LTE. Can I flash the AT&T stock ROM to my variant with success? Or is there another method of getting my phone to lock onto LTE while still having WCDMA/GSM on standby so I may receive calls also?
I previously had a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus which had the same issue on RPM, it wouldn't lock onto LTE. To fix this issue I flashed the international ROM with odin and it worked great locking onto LTE instead of H+ after flashing the ROM until it took a tumble down my basement stairs. So that's why I thought it may be possible with my Verizon Z2 Force.
Thank you!
We can not cross-flash between variants without unlocking bootloader. ATT and VRZ are both bootloader locked ones. It seems no one had done it before.
Wow, that bums me out to hear that.
Hey, I too am using the VZW version with ATT service, and I know exactly what you mean! Same problem here.
