No, that'll only be temporary, as with 2.5.

Get the PC49IMG.zip file for that recovery, put it on the root of the SD, reboot to bootloader, it'll scan and will ask to install, select yes, you're done. :)

First GPS fix will take some time, maybe from 2-10 mins.

I've only flashed the .20.10 Radio. It worked for me...

Or if you have a sense rom or the backup of your stock rom, give the guide a try...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristianPe:
Try this radio file. link, worked for me under cwm 2.5.0.7
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakebar:
My fault, there's something I should make clear.

The radios I've been talking about before have been installed on the first Wildfire, the one I said the GPS was working (and in the meanwhile it proved to be untrue as I discovered the GPS icon has never showed up before flashing the radio). This one Wildfire has CWM 2.5.0.1, installed with Unrevoked. The second Wildfire (which I'd like to use as my usual phone) was rooted with PC49IMG as Unrevoked wouldn't work with it and is running CWM 3.0.0.6, which I've reported in the first post.

For now, let's discard the CWM 3.0.0.6 phone.

It is on the CWM 2.5.0.1 phone where I've temporarily installed 2.5.0.7 and flashed the radios. Could it be relevant?

(maybe I'd better update the CWM anyway)

Uhm, link is broken. My CWM 2.5.0.7 looks to be working properly anyway.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristianPe:
stick with 2.5.0.7 recovery and 20.10 radios, that worked for me using Navitel, as for file here.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakebar:
Flashed Froyo 2.2.1 shipped ROM... and GPS didn't work on it either. Great.

I've restored my CM backup and found out all my link2SD linked apps to be screwed in return. Vanished. Link2SD says there's soooo much free space in that second partition... can't imagine when it's been formatted, but nevermind.

I've already got that radio version but tried to flash the one you've gently provided me, well, same as the other radios. Icon showing but no activity at all.

I give up.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristianPe:
where you at?, i might be a weather-related issue?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakebar:
Unlikely, it's been some days I'm testing the GPS on the phone. But I shall test it away from home to be sure.

I'm from Naples, (IT) by the way.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakshan_456:
Not really sure if CWM matters or not, we use 2.5 to flash radios because the flashing script is different from currently used ones.

Ty upgrading anyway,

Are you sure it isn't a hardware fault. If GPS doesnt work in stock rom, it could possibly be a hardware issue...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakebar:
Too weird it happens on both devices, even if... well them both have had a nice dive in the sea :rolleyes: but GPS used to work before flashing the new ROMs on each phone.

Sure there's something not correct in my procedure but can't find it out.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakshan_456:
Well, I'm sorry mate. unless its a hardware fault or something I'm not in the know of, there are no more solutions I can think of.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakebar:
Behold! He's thinking back.

It just looks like it's not able to track many satellites. Well, at least that's a relief.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakshan_456:
Indeed it is, atleast it wasn't a hardware issue :)

Well done mate...

P.S. :- I'd recommend using 'GPS status and Toolbox' app which is much better than GPStest.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakebar:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joshjunskorean:
Hi guys, I tried upgrading my phone from jellybam 10.2 to 10.3 and also tried to install the kangbang 2.0 kernel, but my phone ended up getting hard bricked. The light won't even turn on when connected to my charger. I already chatted with a samsung employee and got a repair ticket prepared and ready to go, but I was wondering if they'll be able to find out that I flashed my phone and would then void my warranty if I sent it in.

So I was wondering if I should send it in to Samsung or pay for a JTAG service. Thanks for the help!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ShadowCodes:
wellll

im currently working advanced technical support for samsung and i can tell you that, yes they will be able to tell if you rooted it.

this DOES technically put you out of warranty but a software reflash is free of charge even if you are out of warranty.

while the software reflash may not fix the issue as im sure the agent let you know, they will attempt it for you.

if for some reason the reflash doesnt work and additional repairs are needed, they will deem the device out of warranty by condition and contact you with the price for a OOW repair, standard charge $70.36.

also, turn around time for repair is going to be about 2 weeks (2/5-7/2 bussiness days)

there are ways to reset the flash counter (you can find those on here), however im pretty sure they require you to be able to get into the device

hope this helps answer your question! good luck getting it running and have a great day!

There's an app that resets it. You do have to pay for it I think its like $4.99 its called. Triangle away its on the play store. Also you can reset it through command prompt

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeropcs:
Essentially I am on AT&T in Chicago, I would love to buy an International edition this go-a-round. Get the updates faster and not deal with AT&T bloat. However I am curious if any country other than the US will carry a LTE variant of the Note III that will support AT&T LTE out of the box (with the correct APN settings) or am I stuck buying the AT&T version if I want access to their LTE network?

Any insight would be awesome. Thanks...

Im 99% sure the exynos processor would only receive 3g on ATT whereas the qualcom gets the full 4g LTE.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeropcs:
You are correct, the Exynos would get me HSPA only... I am hoping that countries other than the US will carry the Snapdragon 800 and that it would be AT&T compatible for LTE.

I edited the OP to clarify.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LxMxFxD:
If its any help, my International Note 1 gets anywhere from 3Mbit to 13Mbit on HSPA+. I've tested with service from both AT&T (straight talk) and t-mobile now that t-mo has re-farmed the 1900mhz spectrum to hspa in my city.

Not sure how fast LTE is but probably at least twice as fast depending on congestion. The real question now is battery life between LTE version and exynos non LTE version.

And in my opinion, its very much worth having the international version. Big drawback though: NO samsung warranty in the USA. To some that might be an issue.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeyfan:
This has been discussed a lot. The international SD 800 variant, from what I understand, should be able to work on AT&T LTE. I guess we won' t know 100% for sure until someone in NA who uses AT&T orders the international SD800 and can confirm that it does work on AT&T LTE. As as this (and ability to root) is confirmed, I'll be ordering my N3.

Phone for ATT

I too am looking for purchasing a phone either T Mobile or International and using it on the AT&T network. It will be my first foray into GSM but so far I have found the following about the 3 different US GSM versions of the Note 3.

http://negrielectronics.com/

ATT

2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100

4G Network LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

T Mobile

2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

4G Network LTE 700 / 1700 / 2100

N9005

2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100

4G Network LTE 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600

What I don't know about GSM smartphones is if its possible to flash different modems and enable different bands/frequencies. They have the same SOC but such a variance in frequencies... to me it sounds like a modem mod, but I'm by no means an expert :D

Anyone whom knows more want to expand on my comments? It would be appreciated!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daraj:
I have a pretty good feeling that you cant flash different modems, the modem needs to match the device or else it will brick. But then again I could be wrong.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
I was quite delighted to find that there was LTE support for the Tmobile version

---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------

we have been doing that for some times already since Galaxy S2 and Notes and Blazer phones were released.

people have been flashing back and forth HSPA vs LTE radio back and forth without a problem.

The only gotcha is Battery drain rate is horrendous on non-native phones using the other radio

some ROMs managed to optimize this to one degree or another, but it's definitely not the same as using a phone that was originally made for that radio.

But the point is, it's do-able and it works.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holycow1:

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharl1987:
I thought AT&T used 1700/2100 band for LTE :confused:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
That is correct, they also just got the go ahead to use 700.

The N9005, LTE Int'l version is missing 700/1700 which means you won't be getting LTE on AT&T.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeyfan:
CRAP. And all this time I was hoping the N9005 might actually support AT&T's LTE bands.

Why is this? Why don't international unlocked phones support AT&T's bands? Does AT&T have some sort of global monopoly on 700/1700? Or is it because AT&T already has it reserved in NA so that there's no point in adding in these additional bands for international phones?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aalupatti:

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Komodo Rogue:
The online store Negri electronics that everyone is talking about is selling them sim-unlocked, and it's widely believe that t-mobile version will be bootloader unlocked.

However, will a note 3 from t-mobile be sim, or carrier, unlocked? I sincerely doubt it. If you live in the US, as of right now, it's still illegal to unlock your sim-locked phone without the carrier's blessing, so don't expect tutorials - for me, I know I would never be able to figure that out on my own, I always followed tutorials in the past and never really had the slightest idea what I was doing :p

I suggest everyone on Note 3 forums make this distinction for a while, so that nobody buys an unusable phone, or worse yet, bricks it!

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
I'm with AT&T and under contract. After reading all this stuff about AT&T's GN3 locked bootloader, carrier network lock, Samsung's new region SIM lock, the incompatible LTE bands of international N9005 LTE variant and 32GB only of internal storage on AT&T's GN3, which in reality probably translates into ~24GB of available user space - I've come to grips with the realization I'm not getting GN3 at lunch, even though AT&T gets it first, out of all US carriers...

I'm leaning towards waiting until somebody successfully flashes AT&T's modem on international N9005 and successfully enables LTE bands 4 and 17 on it. Then I will find a carrier unlocked, region unlocked and bootloader unlocked international version of N9005 with 64GB of internal memory, buy it and flash AT&T modem onto it. This should result in carrier free, SIM region free, AT&T LTE capable, rootable version of GN3 with 64GB of internal memory and 4k UHD video recording. This might take a while, but I think it's an attainable goal and well worth the wait.

You'll need CM or AOSP to have the super quick updates to the latest Android versions. Its the same as basically every other carrier branded phone.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
You already have all the answers to that in my post above, but I'll re-state:

1. T-Mo and all other US carrier versions have only 32GB internal memory, which translates to roughly ~24GB of user available memory (my educated guess, based on long history of internal storage vs actual user storage observations). That's not nearly enough for me and I want the 64GB version none of the US carriers offer

2.T-Mo version is carrier locked - I'm with AT&T and under contract

3.T-Mo version is SIM region locked and will work only in North, Central and South Americas, even if carrier network lock is removed. I want my phone to have voice calling capabilities worldwide
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheeze[iT]:
Apologies for missing your post.

1) can't do any thing there except maybe get a 64microsd and swap internal storage to SD card.

2) when buying outright the phone will be unlocked to use on att.

3) I think both us and Europe note 3 are region locked :( but I think the ones from aus aren't.? Gl in your search I'm in the same boatish....
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
I'm not sure what you mean by swapping internal storage to SD card, but I can tell you that a lot of apps and games do not support that. They either install on internal storage only, or store their data there, and if you move it using something like app2sd - they wont work. Some individual games store 2-3GB of data on internal storage. A lot of users have 80-100 of apps and games installed, and if half of these take 2-3GB of internal storage each, and you got ~24GB of space available to user on that 32GB US model - you do the math...I ran out of internal space on my GN2 like 3 weeks after I bought it...

I think it will be possible to find international version without region lock and carrier lock, because in some countries, like Italy for example, locking phones is illegal and Samsung cannot do that.

At this point I'm searching for international Snapdragon version with 64GB internal storage and unlocked bootloader. Once I find it i'll have to wait for someone to make GN3 compatible version of Odin and for someone to upload AT&T's LTE modem firmware.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daraj:
I think Its been proven that, in your case, when you get the Tmobile version and pop in Tmobile SIM FIRST and activate the phone, only then your your phone will be region unlocked( restriction free) Now if you want to use your tmobile phone worldwide you will have to unlock your tmobile phone with a lock code either from tmobile or online purchase.

long story short once you activate your phone with the correct regional sim, your phone will be restriction free. Makes sense?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheeze[iT]:
I remember doing on my note 2???? that you can swap the External SD card with the Internal SD card. So you if you had a 16gb internal and 64gb micro, there was a way to swap, and the phone would think the 64gb micro was the new internal. So all apps would install to in and what not. Works if you don't remove the SD card all the time.

Let me know if you find anything :p im searching too
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
This is a speculation of course, since none of the US carriers have the device yet, but it doesnt make sense to me. Region lock is not a carrier network lock and from what I've read it's not carrier specific. Samsung just divided the world kinda like DVD and Blu-Ray regions and locked the phones they ship to a certain region somewhere deep in the baseband firmware to that region only.

Unlocked NOTE III SIM Restrictions

Just found this on an amazon review.

"Regarding regional SIM card restrictions, why such inconveniences? The trick is to put the SIM card from the region that you bought the phone first. I have seen top tech blogs comment as "Roamers can relax -- Samsung says buyers of its top-selling handsets can freely use SIM cards from foreign regions, as long as they activate the device using a SIM from their home region or with the assistance of a service partner." The phone will be automatically unlocked and region free. In other words, if you have the "American" version of the phone, as long as you initially activate the phone using a SIM card from within the "American" region, your phone will then be fully unlocked. You can then take it abroad, use local SIMs whenever you'd like. Make sure you ask the person you are buying the phone which region it is and get a SIM of that region or get your local region phone. Of course this is a ***nasty PR situation**** if it is true that you cannot use the phones freely overseas, I will be highly disappointed and will be against Samsung in future. Hopefully this will be clear in next few months. Doing this to an otherwise wonderful phone is ludicrous. Why did Samsung do it?

I can't post the link but paste this when searching on amazon

BNIB SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 3 GT-N9005 32GB BLACK NOTE III FACTORY UNLOCKED LTE 4G 3G 2G NEW (2G & 3G 850/900/1900/2100 & 4G LTE 850/800/900/1800/2100/2600 MHz)

I'm with this guy, why would Samsung do this? I've bought my phones unlocked since the GS2 and used them all over the world with different SIM Cards. I've had the GN1, GS3 (briefly and gave it to my wife), and now the GN2 and I would love to have the GN3 but this is a huge issue. I hope what's in this review is true case.
