You don't need to unlock it

You do not need to unlock the phone to work on Straight Talk. When you order your sim card you get to choose Tmobile or At&T card. If you are going to use it on the Tmobile Galaxy Note II, then you do not have to unlock it just works as long as you get the right one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
Totally agree. I went with Solavei, which runs on the T-Mobile towers, and did not have to unlock.

Tmobile Straight Talk Speeds on Tmobile Galaxy Note 2

I keep seeing alot of people posting about their experiences with the Tmobile Galaxy Note 2 on Straight Talk AT&T, but I was wondering if anyone has used the Tmobile Straight talk sim, cut it to size and used the Tmobile Galaxy Note 2 on it. ...What were your speed Downloads? Why cut or use the Att Straight talk sim?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
I'm using a straight talk tmo sim in my note 2 the highest I've hit was about 15mbits down and 5mbits up. Seems to work just fine, I just cut my full sized tmo st sim down popped it in the phone and put the tmobile straight talk apn.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Samsung_GS3:
Wow those are pretty great speeds. I am currently using the AT&T straight talk sim in the T-Mobile GS3 and I dont get anywhere near that speed. I have been planning on buying the White Note 2 from Tmobile (outright) full price but they havent put it on their website wihtout a contract yet. Only the grey one. So I'm hoping I can just walk in to a Tmobile store and buy a full priced White one that way. Thanks! By the way...have you run into your speeds being capped/throttled for too much usage on Straight Talk? I ran into this a few days ago but I simply called Straight Talk and they reset my network....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
Yeah it's all about the HSPA+ 42Mbit on tmo it's pretty fantastic.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Samsung_GS3:
Im so torn between the note 2 and the nexus 4!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
I bought the Note 2 and it will NOT be leaving my hands anytime soon cause it's a BEAST of a phone!! That being said, the Nexus 4 will be in my pocket asap as well cause the price is so low I can't say no... I love it! :D I would go with the Note 2 if I had to pick just one though... Just my opinion of course...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Samsung_GS3:
You're not making this easier for me!!!! lol....you are right about the price for the nexus 4...its so low its hard to resist...the thing is the nexus 10 tablet isnt that bad of a price either and if I bought both the nexus 4 and nexus 10 id still be around the same price range as the note 2 by itself (without a contract).. I already have the GS3 and im scared itll be alittle too similar to the note2...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] browniegirl:
Call around. I called 6 tmobile stores before I got one that would let me buy it off contract.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
I haven't been capped at all I used at least a couple gigs last month I flashed a few roms so I don't have a consistent count, the consensus on Howard forums seems to be that it's far easier to get throttled on the att side.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xpprofessional1:
yes if you are a new custome

you will have to wait, hey let's be fair folks i would not put this phone on AT&T/STRAIGHT TALK the phone speed is much faster on TMOBILE network.

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

there's no phone on the market similar to the note 2 hahahahaha.

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

well if you want to buy the note 2 at full price, TMOBILE online is not the best place to look. what you need to do is, do a seach on your pc for tmobile store locator for stores in your local area and call them one by one and ask if the will sell you the note2 at full price, and if they say yes. you make sure you ask to speak to the store manager just to make sure, because sometime store rep will tell you one thing and when you get there it's a different story i've been in that position before and you don't want to waste time going from one store to an other store. that's the best way to get your note2, and after you get it if you are already a tmobile customer for the pass 60 to 90 days you can get your unlock code for the note2, just wait for a week to go by before you call and ask for an unlock code. because if you call them right after from purchasing the note2 they wil send you an email saying that you have to wait for their system to see you using the note2 before you can apply for an unlock code.:D:D:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
I am with you on everything except your first comment... I bought my phone off-contract the day it came out at my local T-mobile store and I already had the $30 plan so I waited a few days (like you said) because their system must be in the dark ages to not be able to tell what phone your running on their system but that's what they told me as well so I waited 2 days and asked the agent if my phone was coming up in their system and she FINALLY said yes so I requested my unlock code and had it the very next day in my inbox... I switched to Straight Talk because their speeds are more faster and consistent in MY area so it's going to differ for a lot of people on which service to go to... Straight Talk or T-mobile.... If you are in an area like mine than Straight Talk is going to be faster than T-mobile ever has been and I live in an area where Verizon first started to build out LTE so idk why T-mobile has not upgraded over here yet?? Anyways, long story short, you have quite a few carrier options with your unlocked T-mobile Note 2! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] davidowens1990:
How did you get tether to work with Straight Talk?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Samsung_GS3:
what apn settings are you using?

So i just got my Tmobile Galaxy note 2!!! I put the (cut-down) tmobile straight talk sim in and entered the recommended settings but all i could get to work was the internet. I was wondering if you were able to get mms working? What apn settings do you have? also, have you unlocked? You would be a life saver if you could tell me these!!! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] diamantericos:
Yeah but att towers are better more coverage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] blb1980:
So to be sure.... I can use the ATT version of the Note 2 on the Straight Talk Sim service - Right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rebel4g:
Omg I get 15 to 20 mbps .. if I had to deal with 6 as my best number I would trip straight talk sucks nogga
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] _atlien_:
Yes. When you order your sim card from Straight Talk be sure to select the AT&T sim not the T-Mobile sim.

dont mean to revive an old thread here, but i was wondering if anyone noticed the AT&T sims are not available on straight talk anymore
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
Wow that's strange, I don't show them as available anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mowgie:
Yeah for a day or so now, kind of a stir in Howard forums. Can still buy on Walmart.Com last time I looked, at least the mini size.

I used to be a cell tech...back in the day when phones weren't even color yet. I stuck to a razr2 forever, got a G2 from a job, then got a note 2 as a present to myself... i love it... i want to write sweet code on those beastly sweet titty'd quad-core nipples...

Never more will there be more inappropriate photos taken from any phone hehe...except maybe the note 3 that's due out in september of this year
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] funziebear:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sassyness77:
I see they have included pogo pins on the nexus 10 as well as nexus 7, but opted out on the nexus 4 which comes with wireless charging. Now why would they move away from this, one if the good things was the charging & audio dock, which I mounted in my dash for torque, music, nav etc. from my gnex. Just curious as to why the switch now...I just wonder if BT audio will be acceptable or sound terrible.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iJimaniac:
I have been wondering the same thing. Why exclude a technology that they've been putting on all other devices? That said, I don't think many will miss this to much, since 4.2 introduces miracast, and since the phone has wireless charging.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sassyness77:
I know it was a bit odd. Why include with the new nexus 10 and drop it with the phone. I'm just wondering now what will be the easiest/cleanest way for me to stream audio to my car since I'll simply use the charge dock for charging and mount :)

Hi, I want to switch from CWM to TWRP.

I tried flashing TWRP on SGH-T989 before but I started from unrooting my phone then root it (just flashed TWRP instead of CWM and flash SuperSU)

I would like to know if I can just flash TWRP using ODIN on this phone if I'm currently using CWM 5.0.x.x?

Please let me know.

Thank you

Thanks for the answer guys but I can't seem to flash it through goomanager. Tried 3-4 times already. it just keep saying invalid md5 file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] whassupmyninja:
You dont flash anything. You open goo manager hit menu and press "install open recovery script" it will open up directly to the right file for skyrocket recovery and then download and automatically install. Simple

But before you do anything now on.. Read this thread about how to install http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622917 so you dont do something bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anon1992:
Hi, my bad I just used the wrong word. I did exactly what you said above but goomanager just keep force closing / just stuck there and nothing happened. That's why I flashed it on Odin with my SGH-T989 because the same thing happened.

Is there any other easy methods?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
That's as easy as it gets man. Must be user error if it's happening on 2 different phones. Works fine for everyone else.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anon1992:
So in this case can I just flash it with Odin?

Or should I unroot the phone and start from 0?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
If there's a tar file for twrp sure, make sure it's the right file.

I don't know what Rom you're on or what you're doing, but I know the open recovery install works and its very easy to do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Anon1992:
I will try to restore to stock and do it again.

and yes I do have the tar file for twrp but my question is do I need to unroot my device or it is fine to just flash it by ODIN?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinesthetix:
Hi there,

This is my first post so go easy on me please... (and yes i tried searching first)

Basically I'm not certain how I did this, but I get a notification that says "Fast Charge is ON - Phone is in charge-ONLY mode" and that I won't be able to mount SD storage.

The funny thing is that I have never been able to get the USB Fast charge toggle to work. I can add it and try and toggle it, but the toggle never shows on or off.

Furthermore, plugging my phone in to my PC, I can access internal and external SD storage with no issues which makes this really weird.

I tried reflashing with the Siyah kernel and Dorimanx kernel but I can't find where I would have toggled this on or off.

Can anyone suggest where I might look or what I might do to turn this annoying notification off?

Thanks!

[Motorola Atrix 2] Aimless Rambler:
Any suggestions on how to regain root after the OTA ICS update using Linux? I've read through various posts scattered about the innerwebs regarding how using Windows but I'm a stubborn Linux user. I've downloaded the A2_ICS_Root Zip and explored the contents but not sure how to properly utilize them. I've rooted the phone in the past manually using Android SDK, Linux Terminal, push/adb shell commands and Motofail but of course lost root with the ICS update. If I don't get an answer I may attempt to follow some of the scripting used for Droid/Razors post ICS, of course tailored a bit. Although my Superuser app is still showing it's pretty much useless, like others with the same issue I've read about, it's still written into the system but no longer rooted. I've tested phone access in terminal but get the R/W error message ... no permission, etc. So ... I thought maybe folks here may have an answer for us semi skilled Linux users.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Axis_Drummer:
You should be able to just run the root.bat if you have the folder with all contents extracted to desktop.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Use the process and scripts I created for the leak/OTA. All you need to do is step 6 in the following link, and use the shell not the bat as others noted... if you are running linux, I am sure you already knew that. ;)

Link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1779968

6) Boot into ICS, and root using the zip below, you will connect the phone to your computer and use the root.bat (unzip this folder to your desktop) for windows and root.sh for linux/mac.

The script and root files:

[Motorola Atrix 2] Aimless Rambler:
Re-Rooted!

Thanks Jim! I actually figured it out on my own, of course using the same zip file you provided which I had found in another thread.

I extracted the file into it's own folder, put the phone into debug mode and made sure MTP (media device) was checked, hooked to USB then ran a few checks in Terminal to make sure the device was recognized. Then I dragged "a2_ics_root.sh" into the open Terminal window and let it do its thing. I already had Superuser installed in earlier root (prior to ICS) so maybe that's why I got the "cannot stat 'su': No such file or directory cannot stat 'Superuser.apk': No such file or directory" error but then it said "You are rooted!". So to check to make sure I was actually rooted I ran the adb shell command and got this "shell@edison:/ $" then entered su, and got this "root@edison:/ #"

Success!! :)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aimless Rambler:
Hmm

Well I don't have root after all? Once unplugged from computer I ran a terminal emulator app on the phone and tried to access root but it says I don't have permission, as well as a few other apps I tried to install. Strangeness. As it looks above in quote is it just a temporary root? One thing I did notice after the OTA ICS update is that the superuser app remained. I tried a factory data reset thinking it would take it off but it didn't. Is my original rooting (GB Motofail) SU somehow stuck in perpetuity within some system file somewhere which is fouling up this root? So how would I go about a clean install of Superuser? I updated Superuser on Play Store but no difference. Hmm
