Best Buy sells an unlocked version of the G920T - http://goo.gl/bk4ukE
It's not T-Mobile. It's unlocked and has no carrier bloat - just the usual Samsung stuff. It shows "4G" for LTE. (Edit: Correction - after the OTA referenced below, it shows H+ and LTE)
It came with 5.1.1 out of the box, build ending in COG3.
It had a 272mb software update immediately available that took it up to the build ending in COK1 and added the Android Security Patch Level line showing 2015-11-01.
Just curious how this model fits into the other unlocked models (f, i, etc.). Did Samsung simply take the T-Mobile model and sell a variant unlocked with no T-Mobile influence?
Sorry to bump this but I'm seeing a few more of these in the wild now and trying to figure it out. It's gotta have the same internals as the T-Mobile variant since the model number is the same, I'm assuming anyway? The full model is SM-G920TZKAX, but the packaging and phone just shorten it to T. The T-Mobile model is SM-G920TZDATMB. I guess knowing what the letters after G920T mean would be helpful.
From what I've read it appears to be a unlocked version of the T-Mobile variant. Can't find much information about it.
I purchased the unlocked version from Best Buy yesterday for $450. Rooted it and could not be happier.

What method did you use? I'm concerned about doing any mods due to not having the right software to flash back to (which we don't have right?).
I used the follow root method:

As for going back to stock, you can always use smart switch, or ODIN back to stock rom.

It's been so long on a Samsung device... no idea what smart switch is. Need to do some reading to get caught up. Thx
Smart Switch replaced Samsung Kies, which replaced Odin. Welcome

I just bought this yesterday as an open box for $380. I was worried that is wouldn't have LTE band 17 for AT&T as the normal 920T is listed as missing this band. The Best Buy version does have band 17 and I'm connected on it now. Very happy with the phone so far.

you can also see the specs for the phone on Samsung's website. http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-G920TZKAXAR
4G FDD LTE: B1(2100), B2(1900),B3(1800),B4 (AWS),B5(850),B7(2600),B12(700),B17(700),B20(800)
Firmware?
Love the phone with no carrier bloatware, would have preferred 64GB but I can make due. I would like to root it but not without having factory firmware to fall back on. Even though it's a 920T it's has no T-Mobile apps so I'm pretty sure I can't load a T-Mobile ROM on it. If anyone runs across formware for a SM-G920TZKAXAR PLEASE let us know. TIA
Does this work with Samsung Pay?
Has anyone tried getting this to work with Samsung Pay? I saw on a Slickdeals thread that it will not work ... would love confirmation.
Also, and I know this is a very, very slight chance anyone will know this, but -- will this work with my old, granfathered T-Zones data plan?

Yes. You can load T-Mobile firmware onto it. You just get all the TMobile extra stuff. Thats the same "unlocked" model sold by Rent A Center.

I have the 32Gb LTE version with an AT&T Sim installed (5gb data plan), Wifi on as well.
I was at the latest KitKat update and noticed that lollipop had been released a few days ago. Every time I goto about tablet / system updates it says its up to date, but still on version 4.4.2. Bought the tablet new from Newegg when it came out. Never had any problems with updates, even using TowelRoot in between updates.
I have reset back to factory and still am not having any luck getting an OTA update, No error messages it just returns with an already up to date message. Any ideas?
Download it and flash it manually.

After looking around .. it seems that AT&T hasn't "approved" the LTE version and since the damn thing ships with an AT&T sim card ... yeah .. doesn't matter that it works with TMO (which I'm using) ... we're not getting it for a bit for the 32GB LTE version.

Yep. It's working well on mine as well and I'm getting 40mb/13mb on TMO's LTE. Really nice. I just forgot that I'd rooted mine with a GUI tool instead of the normal way so my bootloader was still locked ... when all was said and done ... fresh start.
Ah well .. a quite Titanium restore and I was back in black.
I'm considering getting the s7, but after hearing about the bootloader issue I had a few questions. I use Titanium backup, Pandora cracked, and lux, and I was wondering how being unable to root has affected anyone else?

But if the international version doesn't have the hardware for the US, he's ****ed. And I've heard VoLTE and B12 doesn't work on the international version.
International isn't an option. Need to get it thru tmobile for the monthly payments.
How would I know what international version to get that will work with my Tmobile US service?

I am with Rogers in Canada and was upgrading my plan that included a good deal on a s7 if I wanted it - they dropped the phone off at my office but I believe it's the Bell version - is that correct SM-G930W8? I've not opened the box as I plan to sell it - should I ask for the Rogers version, is it better for some reason? Thanks
Sorry, I'm a Nexus guy, don't know the Samsung phones really at all
w8 is the canadian version, when you pop in a carriers sim it'll download their appropriate bloatware.

Kinda, but im sure if you flash a w8 kernel the rom will work since all the roms are made for exynos. Your other option is the 930f which is the international version, but that's no reason to get rid of the w8.

I have been reading about people who get their s8 network unlocked and try to flash to a different carrier firmware only to find that it does not change but stays on the original.. did samsung block this or is odin outdated? Theories??
I just got my unlock code for my ATT S8+ too and was sad to see that this may be true.

I wish it was possible but I've been told I'm just not smart enough to figure it out. I would have thought in two weeks we would have seen proof of people doing it by now.
I believe we're waiting for a newer version of Odin before we will be able to successfully flash. There's a userdata file I believe that we need to flash as well.

On the S7e it took someone making a modified ODIN to get it to work. Was very handy once completed though, but the normal ODIN could not do it.
Has anyone tried the modified Odin? I know it's linked in at least one of the Tmobile S7e threads.

Also all the US models are "u " models and others have been successfully flashing other carriers firmware with regular odin.

LR&D Carrier Switch/Root Snapdragon
https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?ur...share_tid=3597473&share_fid=3793&share_type=t
Somewhere around page 45 start reading.
However this makes it generic Canadian firmware. So no volte or wifi calling. I'm guessing we're still a few weeks off to be able to move from US carrier to US carrier.
The userdata odin change is the important part (as well as using the Odin that doesn't check firmware hash).
I'm going to go Canadian this eve and then reflashing with my T-Mobile SIM in back to the 955u firmware. Which I'm guessing won't work. But we'll see!

The S7 got what we called ENGBOOT root. Which was not really full functioning root. It required you to flash a Samsung created engineering kernel, that is purposely unstable, but is designed to help Samsung repair shops fix corrupt devices.
With some tweaking root was achieved, but the bootloader stayed locked. And the performance was so degraded by the engineering kernel MOST people went back to stock and never used root.
Sadly rooting and ROMing most phones is going away. Especially now that Google is providing an easy way for developers to turn off access to an app if the user is rooted. Right now even if you have root you can't use Netflix, Samsung Pay, Android Pay, among many others.
If you want root still I'd look at a 1+ or the Essential phone or the international model if this phone. Otherwise you are probably out of luck.

Yes.
I have been using AdClear for a while now and it works great including in YouTube. The development team has an xda thread that has the downloads and a bunch of great info. Just search xda.
I use BK Package Disabler to freeze apps. It lets you freeze individual processes in apps as well which is great for blocking only certain features of apps. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kunkunsoft.packagedisabler
For making a back to restore I actually like Samsung's Smart Switch. Works great to backup your phone to a computer.
Also in Developer settings you can manually address your DPI, and over in the S8 International threads there is a list of about 40+ fonts that can be installed.

So AT&T firmware has advantage over this? Will it matter that it has AT&T firmware using on OPTUS Australia?

One of the phones I may try to sell when over there, though the buyer will have to get his own USB adapter

Awesome. Will flash when I get a chance. Hopefully no issues on OPTUS.
This may seem like a stupid question, and I am assuming the answer is no, but does flashing an official firmware lock it to that carrier ?

No as long as you sim unlock it first there should be no issues
