Why do so many people get sprint CDMA devices and expect them to work in GSM only countries? I may never understand but my suggestion is get a device that will work naively in your region

The reason why they get a Sprint device is because it's supposedly cheaper to buy a Sprint Note 5 than a global variant of the Note 5.
I think it's better to get a global variant and avoid the headache. It can't be THAT much cheaper.

I agree. Even if it's a hundred bucks cheaper, is it really worth the headache to get it working? For me, I'd say no. There are plenty of great unlocked devices that'll work anywhere in the world (Moto X Style, N6P, N5X, Moto G, most phones actually, now that i think of it), idk why they wouldn't look at those first.

I see in your words I have no solution

what did you do?

Sprint note 5 support gsm and cdma bands. All phones from note 4 and newer have all the radios to run on both . Do ##data# go to lte bands and look at all the band's available. If you run moar rom or have your msl code you can change the band priorities. I'm running my sprint note 5 on metro pc gsm with lte and hspa full bars most the time. [email protected] sim also works also on my note 5 too. Wish i had got the dual sim model

Note 3 N9005, keep or not?!

Made a boo boo and purchased the N9005 variant and I'm a straight talk user. I'm sure you can put two and two together and realize I'm only getting 3G service. Now I'm debating to keep the phone or purchase the N900A variant? Either be patient and wait for a tutorial release where At&t's LTE bands are readable or go purchase the N900A?!

Can't remember whether I said in your last thread or not about it, but I'll post again lol. Do you need/want 4G/LTE? - if you can live with 3G then keep it, Plus a few people testify that the Snapdragon model is the better one AND there's more in terms of development and ROMs.

Yes actually I do need the 4G for the use I put into the N9005. Where I'm located. There is no data sent over 3G network. I went to send a text yesterday and I had to downsize it because of no data.

In that case, you kinda answered your own question. Probably better to sell up and get that old N900(A) badboy :good:
You may get lucky and find someone who wants an N9005 and has an N900A, nothing is impossible these days.

Selling it wouldn't be an issue. I'm just looking for an answer "If anyone is actually looking into tweeking the N9005 to read At&t's bands or not." Why I kind of posted this question if I should keep the phone or not. Hate to sell it, two weeks later. Someone found out how to add the two bands.
The bounty for changing the bands has been up a while, now the HW does support it, but there is a reason someone/people haven't changed them (yet) - plus there is a legal side to changing frequencies in countries etc

Which is why I'm thinking with the whole legal spectrum of it. The tweek hasn't been released. :crying:
Could possibly just keep it for a rainy day and have both variants.

Indeed you could, if you can afford to have both then do so, you can play around on the 9005 variant with ROMs etc or use as a media player or a backup phone.

Still have yet to break her in but noticed the N900 variant. Would that be classified as the unbranded version of the variants At&t and T-Mobile are running or?

Yes would be similar/same as unbranded
The difference is the A and V variants have a locked bootloader - whereas the 900/9005 don't iirc

Not to sound "stupid" but I am sounding stupid. Therefore that variant would read At&t 4G/LTE? Google isn't very friendly when trying to search this.

It should do yes, unless ATT have some stupid agreement with Samsung which I doubt.
Give ATT a ring, ask them if they support the N900 to be 100%

Aussie Users

Just wondering is there are any Aussie users of the G Pro 2?
Obviously its not available here, and the grey imports only work on the Optus network
They are so cheap at the moment - wondering if I should just get it
It's a great phone, I brought mine off becextech. I've got my 32gb black model running pretty well on Telstra. The problem is if you wanna do customisation (you will want to with this phone) you can't due to all its restrictions. I think you should do a little more searching around because it's not perfect.
Thabks for the heads up.. Do you regret getting it?

Just Got Galaxy Note Edge through ebay(Docomo) Now What?

Hey guys just recieved my Note Edge. Its the Japanese Docomo version. I totally misread the LTE band listing thinking it would work with T-Mobile LTE but it does not. But all is not lost i feel. I did some research and there is a way to unlock LTE bands on Qualcomm devices(as the chip does support all LTE bands world wide) It is a amazing looking device BTW and i Am very happy( I can use my Note 4 until I figure out how to unlock LTE on the EDGE for TMO) So i guess i have a few questions now.
1. Would rooting be theoretically the same as a note 4?
2. Would changing the modem once rooted allow for additional LTE bands to be used ?
3. would rooting using the Note 4 method change the note edge status ?
Just some things i was pondering, if anyone has suggestions I can test with the edge and let you know the outcome in the development forum
:good:
Congrats im so jealous. Ebay?
Congratulations on your purchase!! Mine should be arriving by Friday, I can hardly wait.
I hope you get it unlocked soon.
Could you please test one thing for me?
I wanted to know if you have the ticker panel on the edge screen? If so, can you get Yahoo sports information on it?
Regards.
Just chatted with AT&T. No new info on date.
Sorry! Wrong thread. Mods please delete or move.
Glad you got one. I am still waiting for tmobile to open preorders.
As far as the unlocking and rooting goes your probably have to wait. Not a lot of people have them yet. The note 4 method might be the same tho since most parts are the same.

I was thinking the same, im thinking of trying out that root method just to see if it works. but i hope i dont jack it up in the process. Also the ticker does not have the Yahoo one at this point. im guessing because its the Docomo version.

Good luck with trying the root, I really hope it works. I know I will have to root my phone in order to remove all the Korean bloatware that will come with it.
Is it possible to change the settings on the ticker? I think the Korean version will also have something locally based other than yahoo. I hope it will be possible to change to something else?

Is your Docomo Edge SIM unlocked?
Just wondering if you had to do anything special to use a foreign SIM card in your Docomo Edge.
I'm trying to find a way to do it without going through Docomo or going to Japan.
Thanks for any advice you can give.

CDMA Galaxy s6 modem

So it seems the CDMA s6 uses the qualcomm MDM9635 modem instead of the shannon 333. This is surely because of the fact CDMA patents are largely owned by qualcomm (something along the lines of that) . What I want to speculate on is the fact that both the sprint and U. S. Cellular version have more lte bands listed than the Verizon model. Most notably 12 and 17. These would be great to have especially if someone ever wanted to jump ship to T-Mobile or AT&T (I'm sure for that exact reason verizon probably asked for them to be disabled). I'm wondering if we ever received root, and that's a big if, we could theoretically unlock those bands also. All in all it would make this phone more globally and domestically appealing. What are you guys thoughts on this? Hopefully we can have some devs jump aboard once we achieve root to make this happen.

Just a guess but I don't think just having root would allow this as at bare minimum it sounds like you'd have to modify the RIL.
Just get a Canadian variant G920W8. No CDMA support, but full LTE interoperability with SHANNON333 modem supporting Band 12, 13, 17, 2, 4, 5, 29.

If CDMA wasn't an issue I would have got the international SM-G925F because that has plenty of LTE Band support. But at least for the next few years verizon still has a CDMA network and where I'm at that's the only provider I get good service with.

Well in all honesty the sprint galaxy s6 uses the mdm9635 as per a sprint rdf file on the phone. I was just making the assumption that the Verizon one would use the same one.
I'd love to hear if anyone else succeeds w/ this. I need more LTE bands than the crap list that Verizon supports on this damn modem

The hardware is definitely capable. It's just a matter of someone more experienced tampering around. It should be on a software side that the bands are being disabled. Unfortunately if there is code within the kernel itself that's blocking these bands we may never be able to utilize them.

Verizon supports very few other LTE Bands for international users. Those in Asia do not have LTE coverage.

The thing is its stated you might need a custom kernel for these changes to stick. Seeing as our bootloader is locked most likely we will never get anything more than a custom rom. I don't really think any devs are looking into this. Modem work isn't really my cup of tea. Hope eventually someone comes up with something.

Can I flash ee uk firmware on unlocked snapdragon s8 plus?

I've just bought a galaxy s8 plus on gumtree and just realised it's an American unlocked version. I wanted to flash EE firmware to enable Wi-Fi calling but I'm not sure if it's still possible using Odin as the uk phones have different chipsets.
Can anyone confirm either way?

flash exynos rom on snapdragon , great idea if you want a brick. No joke, it won't work for sure. and if you flash the Exynos firmware with odin , including bootloader , it would be an hard brick, won't turn on , no more recovery or download mode, just completely bricked. So just no. and wifi calling is nothing to do with the phone but with your carrier and or your current subscription. if your carrier doesn't support wifi calling you won't have that option, so other firmware or even force to show that option changes nothing as you would have the same carrier .
and of course a csc (firmware depend of the country) works only with the right SIM card , I mean samsung block the phone if you use an American SIM card on a European phone. European phone works only with European SIM card and European carrier

The other person could not be more incorrect your phone works fine in the UK, along with every other high end us phone for the last like 10 years
I hope you still have it and didn't dump it for cheap because someone decided to open their big mouth without actually checking that their gut reaction has any basis in reality.
I don't know if there is full CSC support for the UK carriers, but all u1 phones are direct from Samsung and sim unlocked at the factory so you will be able to pop any uk sim in there and be able to use data/sms/voice etc no problem. What provider do you use? I can check my /system/omc directory and see if it's preinstalled by the standard is CSC package.
It's also quite likely that if not you can install the local CSC package that comes with exynos phones on yours. Not only are the other posters 100% wrong about the SD/exynos phones habing incompatible operating systems*, but even if there was a shred of truth to it the CSC package is mostly config files and images and whatnot anyway, so there little execution going on
*It has nothing to do with exynos or snapdragon they are both arm64 lol. If anything it's because Samsung kneecapped them to make sure it wasn't possible for licensing/snapdragon bootloader security or some other stupid thing.

Hi
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a long and in depth reply.
I did reply to the guys post earlier stating that it the phone works absolutely fine on 4g LTE. I just thought he misunderstood me. Or vise versa. I've not dumped the phone because it works fine. Even if I can't get WiFi calling sorted I will still be keeping it. As long as I can still get updates ota I will be happy..
I bought a note 5 a few months ago not realising it was an AT and T model. That was a pain because it was stuck on lollipop and wouldn't accept any ota updates without an AT AND T sim card.
So I was just a bit wary of that happening again. But with this phone being unlocked I'm sure updates will be just the same as UK phones. (hopefully).
Just for the record my phone is running on E.E. carrier.
I've not checked if it's ever been rooted before.
How would I check?
Would a root checker app do this?
Thanks again
Simon.

I've just bought a galaxy s8 plus on gumtree and just realised it's an American unlocked version. I wanted to flash EE firmware to enable Wi-Fi calling but I'm not sure if it's still possible using Odin as the uk phones have different chipsets.
Can anyone confirm either way?
Thanks in advance.

I bought my Galaxy S8 from New York, after a while I realized that my phone is US unlocked version, now I live in UK and I don't get any updates for my phone at all since last year, I tried to flash it but it didn't work.
