Hey guys im gonna get off topic for a second and if im out of line here please ignore me but I cant really think of a better place and any better group of people to ask for help than here.

Im going to visit 2 separate TMO stores tomorrow and ask a whole bunch of the same questions at both and come to a conclusion given the information from both places as to how I should prceed with my switch from VZW to TMO.

I currently have a N2 S3 Charge and Samsungs 10.1 LTE tab all verizon equipment. Im going to ask a couple questions because I would like to enter these stires equipped with as much info as I can and if anyone here can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

1) will I be able to use the current equipment list with tmo and if so will there be any restrictions being that it all came from big red? Prdog mentioned something about this a while back I have to searh for it.

2) my plan is to pick up an N3 for myself, hand the N2 down to my son who is using the Charge currently , keep the s3 for my wife if possible and use the tab as wifi only with no data plan. Would I be able to keep my current phone numbers for the three phones?

3) one of the reasons fir my switch is to reclaim unlimited data. Is this going to be an issue going forward with TMO? In other words are they trying to get away from unlimited such as VZW is and will give me a problem trying to obtain an unlimited plan?

4) is there anything else that I need to know of any significant importance before I commit to this switch?

Since we are being double teamed now by Dwith and Alexia (wait that didnt sound right lol) I cant imagine N3 Tweaked being anything less than perfect for the N3. I cant friggin wait.

Thank you for any help and if I am out of line pkease ignore this post. Thanks

I have made Verizon phones work on Tmo but only on Edge wich is basically 2G. Looks like you may be late for unlimited data. http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...rtised-select-value-plans-over-next-2-months/ :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Oreo13:
Actually you are incorrect tmobile does have unlimited everything for family plans.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
I'm just referring to article. I read it as they are being discontinued. Says can keep unlimited if already on new plans. Don't know what plans they are offering to new customers. I am grandfathered on Verizon. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Oreo13:
Yeah. But the article only states that it is only moving over grandfathered plans. Not they did not have or couldn't maintain unlimited data which is what he was interested in. I know for a fact his phones are going to be iffy because he will have to look into buying a new device or hopes he has a device compatible with tmobile. Which some are and some aren't. I wouldn't know because been a loyal tmobile customer for 10 years and still going strong.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Yea. I can't use in Texas. Travel too much. TMO pretty worthless down here. Get off freeway and don't have anything. :laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Oreo13:
Same here bro eh its gotten better over the years while my friends have verizon they switched over to T-mobile and they haven't complained since then. He has the N4 lol. He just couldn't pass uo the google phone ha ha.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
I got Rezound to work on TMO for my son. Everything worked except Data was like dialup. Remember when couldn't get TMO service inside any building. I had to give it up. Never looked back. Haven't found anywhere Verizon doesn't work even in the sticks. lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
Thanks guys sounds like I may have to get 3 new phones. This turning into a costly endeavor but one im still willing to entertain. I guess ill see what happens tomorrow when I speak to them. Seems like every carrier is trying to get away from the unlimited plans. Verizon has been pushing very hard for it offering all types of incentives including a $250 visa card same as cash.lol sucks

I just went on tmo website and after selecting a plan it asked if I wanted to purchase a phone or use my own. I chose use my own for n2 and s3 and it showed that it was compatible with their sim. Is this wrong?

Did you verify they were Verizon models. Not sure. There were rumors some phones are but not sure if it is still just EVDO and not LTE. The sim will work and the LTE radios are there but may be locked out like usual. HSPA may be unlocked. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
No I didnt. I just tryed the site to get an idea of a monthly cost and to see if I would be able to obtain unlimited data. It came out to 130/month fir 3 lines without any phine purchases and UL was available on the family plan I chose. Im going to do the actual transaction in store. I didnt see any option to verify verizon though. Going to look again. Thanks pr

Verizon Worthless in alot parts of Texas where you dont have any signal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Dead mans lands in mid WestTexas where no one lives and there are no signals from any carrier. Parts off freeway between Houston and Dallas no TMO signal. During Hurricane no TMo even in Houston. That why we keep Verizon. Once TMO gives up their share to Fema there is nothing left. I don't travel into West Texas unless going to Vegas. Have had a Verizon signal everywhere else for years. Have to hand my phone to son a lot of times cause no TMO. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
My brother lives in a little town close to Bryan Tx. He has VZW because nothing else works.

I recently drove to Vermont. I had Verizon 4G all the way across Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. It finally became hit or miss in Vermont. Of course Vermont is extremely mountainous and has more cows than people. Then it finally died away completely in the northeastern most corner of the state. From my son's place you can walk to either New Hampshire or Canada in less than 5 minutes.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kal-El7:
lol!! Yup! Already did it. Knox, u don't scare me! hahaha...

I'm loving it. But still not as stripped down as Tweaked, obviously, so my battery isn't a stellar. But WANAM Xposed (a single xposed module with a million options) is orgasmic as for right now. It makes stock ROM look like any 3rd party ROM with a lot of the same tweaks that I've come to enjoy in 3rd party ROMs.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Yeah it's pretty amazing - options are a beautiful thing, but it sort of takes the fun out of tinkering...

*goes back to tinkering anyway*
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kal-El7:
lol...awww, man, Dwith! No, no, no, buddy....look, I NEED Tweaked. Trust me. If Tweaked was in the Google Play Store (as it should be, you crazy man, you) I would purchase it.

I didn't know you knew about wanam xposed. It's a deadly module. But it doesn't make mms/sms work over wi-fi (in "some" cases) nor does it allow my battery to go on for eons before needing to charge it up again, etc....all technical things I require more so than cosmetics. =)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
LOL - well I don't know if I can lay claim to most of the things that are good w/ tweaked, but regardless I'd much rather play around with it myself to figure it out. That being said - the wanam xposed module is an amazing piece of work. I imagine it will be included in just about every stock modified rom so the rom can lay claim to all the great benefits it bestows. I'm just stubborn and want to know how it all works lol

D, you the man bro!!!! Wanam is only temporary till we get some N3 Tweaked.

I don't want anyone knowing about it. Only Tweaked!

Besides Wanam will only work on the Note 3 right? My poor old GN2 is getting left out. I got a feeling I'm gonna be going out of my mind before I get one of them.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] AkaTheMacDaddy:
I got my N3 but no way I'm putting any of the roms on it that are in the N3 forums. I also don't do modules no matter how good they are. That's like me covering the leather seats with Walmart seat covers and putting regular gas in my high performance racing car. I'm worth high quality coded craftsmanship and Tweaked is worth the wait!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Warrior1975:
I haven't flashed a ROM either. I've decided to wait for Tweaked as well... Definitely added mods though, I can't stand the stock theming.

Side note, I thought I saw a blue T-Mobile visual voice mail apk, anyone have that by chance?

I just heard the S4 got 4.3 officially. Won't be too long now for us I hope!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Hmm... was this working and then started to not work? If so, have there been any changes you've made since you last noticed it was working? Things like apps installed/updated, mods flashed, themes flashed, new/updated xposed modules... things like that... any of those?

If it didn't work right away, if you switch to the Note2 stock SecMms do the same issues occur?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I'm kinda excited about it too but there is one thing I'm a little nervous about. I love the ViPER4Android app but it doesn't seem to work right on 4.3. Of course those who are having all the problems are on CM nightlies. Maybe it'll be good on a Tweaked official release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
Did you check and see if people are using it with 4.3 on stock n3 and having any issue? That will kinda tell you whats to come. And even if there is some issues im sure they'll iron them out. A lot of people use viper.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kal-El7:
I agree. I definitely do modules too. I don't think models cover up the beauty of a ROM, if your attitude about it is right and you control yourself. I think modules are supplementary to a ROM. They can cover up a ROM or add technical functionality---mods can serve either purpose. I have installed 53 modules in the Note 3 already. Not all modules are for cosmetics. That being said, I used modules on Tweaked that added some sort of "functionality" that may not have existed in the ROM, but I never used a module in Tweaked to add visual flare. I like the leather seat analogy used by AKA. However, if Tweaked is considered leather seats (and it should be), then certainly stock ROM is McDonald's hard plastic seats and could benefit from a little touch-up. Haha

Since the Note 3 doesn't have Tweaked yet, I flared up the cosmetics on the stock ROM as well.

Also, please refer to the attached photo. This icon is on my status bar, but I have zero processes running. Greenified everything as well. Does it look familiar?

I tethered wirelessly on T-Mo recently during an Internet outage that we suffered. Watched The Walking Dead from early evening til 5am non-stop to help my girl catch up. On Tweaked.....no issues.

As for 3 Dot Menu crashes on the Note 3. It renders the device inaccessible. I had to muscle my way around it. Beware.

Private Message is best for this.

Great Job Dwitherell!

Any major differences from RC5 to 2.0? RC5 running smooth as butter for me :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Some minor things - updated pbj kernel, some changes to popupbrowser and sysscope - the rest were fixes on the installer side.

EDIT: Also made one last fix to the basic installer prep (aroma) zip - so make sure to check your md5s with what is in the downloads post to make sure you have the most up-to-date one :)

So.....lol (noob) flashed. Everything perfect. Now I wanted to try pbj kernel. When I try to from the basic installer. Wont go. Is that a one time thing from first flash? Pretty sure im completely in the wrong. Lol. Or is that why there is an advanced?:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
You really have two options. First use the advanced approach and reflash it or the easier download the modifinicator which is still aroma

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] cwalker0906:
First off thank you for your work. I am far from a noob but I read the op and still confused on how to flash this. Even basic instructions dont make sense. It says the preinstall zip creates a zip to be flashed? So when do I flash the rom?. Again dont get me wrong I want to flash it and glad you made it....but what is the purpose of all these zips and pre installers instead of simple aroma? I just maybe be slow today but if I cant figure how toflash a rom maybe you just oover complicated a simple procedure that didnt need fixing. Im gonna make a back up and dive in and see what happens. Thank you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] punkkloser:
Morfic kernel running smooth here. After almost 2.5 hours of screen time, I only lost about 17% battery
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kenbals:
I had same confusion. Backed up. Downloaded 2.0. .basic installer and modificator. No problems here. And im a noob. I think.lol. now im doing it all over for advanced. Was way to easy. Time to edit. Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jay661972:
Nice but got bootloop twice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Sorry for the confusion. While it may be true that I over-complicated things, it's simpler than you might think. First, there are not as many zips/preinstallers as might be implied by the statement "all these zips and preinstallers" - and second, aroma has it's own issues, but of relevance here is the task of the often-flasher... having to go through and re-select the options you want every time you flash the rom. I offer a possibly-over-complicated alternative that only needs to be done once - then as long as the files aren't deleted from your sdcard you won't have to do it again. To excerpt a bit from the OP, with a few parts bolded for emphasis:

To over-simplify things a bit, this is what this approach does:

1) There are two ways to complete the first step - either using an aroma installer that doesn't actually install anything (basic approach) or by manually editing a text file and placing it in a particular directory on your sdcard (advanced approach). All the basic approach does is make, edit, and place that file for you.

2) Flash the main installer zip - this is the actual rom, but it no longer has the aroma interface (selections have been done ahead of time now)

3) If you decide to reflash the rom, flash something else and then come back to this one, etc. - you no longer have to reselect your desired options (you still can of course, you would just go back to point 1 here instead of point 2 - just flashing the main installer again).

The complications come at the beginning (cost), but future flashes are then much more easy/convenient/efficient (benefit). I could have just stayed with things the way they were, but I wanted to try something different. Different doesn't always mean good, but this felt interesting enough to give it a shot (at least to me). Hopefully people give it a chance :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I sure wish I could flash this. Wrong carrier. Maybe it will make it over to the VZW GN2 sometime. Mainly I wanted to post something here so it will show up on Tapatalk for me. I like to keep up with developments over here so I have some idea what to expect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] cwalker0906:
Ok....so I flash the basic zip choose my options then just flash rom? If I decide I want to change something I have to go through the 2 steps again? I like all the options in the change log looking foward to this just wanted to make sure. I hope I didnt come off like a jerk it was not my intent. Thank you

Edit: nevermind, I figured out how to install correctly. Just needed that Redbull to kick in haha.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Never noticed that before, but I took a quick trip back to stock to double-check and this appears to be stock behavior (the not staying unchecked after reboot). The same goes for date/time. I have a feeling it has something to do w/ being connected to the network, but that's just a guess. I could dig into it and see why it auto-checks, but no promises on undoing it until I know more :)
