is there a way to get the sprint spark icons on or back on the Note 5,if they ever existed? I personally like the Spark icons,and TW for that matter,and would like to have them.

I would love to put Ubuntu Touch on my Note 2, it is a sprint version phone. I'm guessing that this means it won't have an actual cellular signal at this point though, and that kind of defeats the purpose of putting Ubuntu Touch on the phone. I would want to use it as a phone / messaging device.
If i'm mis-informed about where the development is at on the Note 2, let me know.
Everything I've found indicates that GSM is not working on the Note 2, but what about CDMA? Haven't seen anything specific to that...so a link to a developer thread specific to sprint versions would be great.
Any progress? The official version just got released so good stuff should happen.
This question may bite me back but still going to ask… so bring it!!! Nicely please , any way if I was to flash a tmobile stock or custom rom I think it would brick my phone. Right ??? Just tell me so I could stop trying to find a way to tmobile, cant return, can't sell so am stuck. ??
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? My sprint note 5 runs great on t-mobile. I get faster data on my sprint note 5 than on my t-mobile note 3.
exactly what you have , how did you get it to work on tmobile
The download booster feature is not on Sprint rom

Hi 954wrecker,
I also have a Sprint Note 5 (SM-920P) which is running perfectly on Ting.com using GSM.
Why on GSM instead of Sprint? I changed jobs and GSM coverage is better than CDMA at my new location.
Anyway, What DOES work. . .
1. Calls
2. Automatically Switch between GSM LTE and GSM 3G (when needed)
3. Send/Receive Text (but need to use Textra with Port 80 to send Receive MMS)
2. WiFi
3. WiFi Hot Spot
What does NOT work is. . .
1. my VoiceMail Notifcations icon. If I get a message, I never receive the "Voice Mail" Notification icon at the top.
Question-1: Does your VoiceMail notification icon work? (when you get a new VoiceMail message)
Question-2: Would flashing the SM-920T(T-Mobile) Stock ROM on my SM-920P(Sprint) brick my phone?
Thanks ! !

Don't know about voicemail. There was a little voicemail notifier applet around somewhere that might work if you can find it. You might try just removing all sprint voicemail apps.
You cannot odin other phone firmware. You could try flashing a tmobile custom rom with twrp but you also have to flash a sprint kernel along with it that matches the bootloader/firmware you are running or it probably wont run. I recommend one of the beastmode kernels.
Sprint phones need a sprint rom for the cellular radio to work. If you want a wifi tablet you can flash any gsm rom. Try visual voicemail see if that works, i dont use tmobile anymore just ringplus.

I'm looking to see if this is possible too. When I got a Sprint Note5 in exchange for my T-Mobile Note5 because of issues, it works but I lost a lot of good functionality. Video calling, download booster, just to name a few...
I'm eligible for an upgrade on my Moto X. I'm looking hard at the new S7 and so far I like what I see, but I'm wondering if anyone has heard whether or not it has Voice over WiFi baked in like the iPhone 6 has. My wife has the 6+ and all I had to was flip a toggle to enable her to use WiFi when there's no carrier signal - which is the case where we live. I'd love to see Samsung add this to the S7.
Even on the iPhone, I believe this is a carrier-specific feature. I've got a Note 5 on T-Mobile and there is also a toggle for me to turn WiFi calling on and off, so I think if you're on Tmo, or another carrier that allows it, you should be good to go.
Every smartphone I've had on TMo has had WiFi calling baked in. If you flash a custom ROM, it'll have to be based on a stock ROM. Personally, despite any initial bloat, I've found such ROMs more stable than AOSP based ones, although YMMV. I've also never been willing to give up WiFi calling, so it's always been an easy choice.
To start it off, On my Note 3 SM-N900T I got tired of the T-Mobile data indicators and decided to spice it up, i found that by changing the product build from SM-N900T to SM-N900A made the data icons change to AT&T's data indicators which I preferred much more. After using my T-Mobile Note 5 for about 4 months i decided to do the same for it, except after rebooting I now had the international data indicators instead (4G,H+,3G,H,E,G) i was wondering if since long ago the AT&T icons are no longer included in samsung carrier branded devices? If thats the case, is it possible to change them with root? Any help is greatly appreciated
Alright... I'm so excited for my 2nd note to come. This is also my 2nd sprint but who cares right? My last note was the Note 4 from at&t and i kinda miss it. But the battery kept overheating and I couldn't flash a rom on the phone. But I know I can if I have a sprint or a tmobile galaxy. Lol I seen YouTube and XDA.. So What's the Best Rom for this note?
I need everything for this thing.( Recovery,Rom...(S8/Note 8 port), everything). I'm using my s6 edge on tmobile and the signal is really low. I mean I still get good 4g lte signal but around 1 to 3 bars. Especially when I'm on the phone with somebody. Wifi calling is included. Hotspot is included. Almost everything works except binge on and visual voicemail. I can get the phone unlocked it's been paid in full.. I just need this thing to run like it's successor (note fe or note 8). it be cool to have the sprint 4g lte icons and the sprint boot up screen and make it feel more authentic with Better speeds and everything and I think that's what sprint has one up on. But I love tmobile so thats why I want this to run as a sprint phone using tmobile. Especially with extended range? I need help and input.
I'm not sure n920p is going to work well for you from a WiFi calling standpoint. Sprint WiFi calling isn't compatible with TMobile's system so the ROM will have to be tailored to work. I had a similar issue with Mint Sim with my Sprint Note 5.
