I can confirm this does not work currently on the wind mobile phone (sm-n900w8) with the n900w8vlubmi5 firmware. Any chance of, when Rus firmware is released or publicly available, of having this made for that phone? Sorry if this is asked earlier by me but I think the post didn't actually work it didn't come up on my computer or phone so I think I didn't press submit. And sorry for this not being tmo related but I figured it's good to know what this does and does not work for. Btw my phone did not have the region lock sticker on the box. But I tried this program and then tried my roommates bell SIM and no luck still wants unlock code :(

T-Mobile Store version vs Negri T-Mobile version

I was wondering if there was any difference(except maybe price) between the T-Mobile store version and the version T-Mobile version Negri sells?

Negri version

http://negrielectronics.com/samsung-galaxy-note-3-32gb-lte-t-mobile-unlocked-black.html

And would I be able to get the Negri version to run on ATT (after running CW app) without any issues?

Thanks

i was wondering if anybody knows if you can use this method starting with an activated tmobile sim card vs using an unactive unregistered one, if someone could let me know that would be great. thanks!

The Negri device is already unlocked so you would have no issues and would not need to use Chainfire 's app

Please help.

I am just buying a Rogers Wireless N900W8 Canadian variant. I need to use the phone with Bell Mobility.

Can I just root the phone using <> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2471340 <>

and then follow this guide?

Can anybody confirm if these steps work on N900W8 Rogers variant?

Thanks

Went to T-Mobile today, bought a Note 3 outright, didn't get any plan at all, came home rooted using CF-Auto Root, and ran the Region Lock app from him. Everything went fine. Using my AT&T prepaid sim in the Note 3 now. Getting LTE. I never had to get a plan from T-Mobile.

I have an ATT note 3 and my question is simple i hope i am new ish to Android so still learning. I travel back home to England ALOT so my question is this. If I did this method to my ATT note 3 could I get a Vodafone sim and be able to use it ? or would i be better off returning the Note 3 and getting a Nexus 5?

Just chiming in to say that this seems to have worked for me too on my N900T. My phone's already activated, but I ran the app anyway & chose reboot later. Turned it off & put in one of the AT&T test sims from work, and booted it back up. Didn't get a data connection cause the test sim wasn't activated, but I did get 2-3 signal bars & the phone didn't ask me for an unlock code so I assume it worked. Neato :D

Rooted via Root de la Vega and did the steps in the OP with an active T-Mobile SIM. I put an unactivated At&t sim and it worked fine. Didn't get anything prompting for an unlock code.

does this work on tmobile note 3 in the USA?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bp328i:
I used it on my T-Mobile Note 3 because I'm going to Australia for a month and T-Mobile won't give me an unlock code until the phone has be activated for 40 days and paid in full so I bought CF's app and now I'm good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] B0nes424:
I'm giving cellunlocker until dinner time and then i'm going this route....pretty tired of having a phone with no network connection lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bp328i:
He also has a free version here on XDA, but I bought mine because of everything he does for the community. But if you already paid for a code you might want to use the free version.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] B0nes424:
maybe...but I really have no issue with paying the extra 3.00 if it will work. CellUnlocker is really disappointing me. 49 hours and counting. I get that it takes longer on the weekend but c'mon. I was told initially 1-5 hours and again yesterday 1-5 hours from the time of that email.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] teknowiz23:
I am thinking about eating the $25 and trying this as well. only problem is as it states that you are supposed to activate the original sim card first, I did. So I'm hesitant to do it because it sounds like this method only works with Unactivated sims. I may have to go buy a new sim I'm assuming then.

I have been waiting for 28 hours now..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Black Moon:
Hi, with CF app, you have to root the device though right? Yeah they also said I have to wait for 40 days for the code with my fully paid phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jerdog:
Root your device with CF auto root and the use this app. You won't need your unlock code. Read the OP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Black Moon:
Thanks. I've read through the thread, and remember that this CF unlock app will not stay permanent right? i.e. everytime when we up new rom we have to run the app again? just to make sure :) thanks.

That has not been confirmed, and is probably not the case

worked on Galaxy Note 3 Canadian version locked to Rogers

Used version 1.0 tried it about nine times using this method and it did not work then I decided to download the latest version from Chainfire's post version 1.3. To be exact it was the free version anyhow I tried it once again and it said successful then I selected reboot later and it turned out to have worked and it stopped asking for a SIM unlock pin. Keep in mind this is a Canadian model and I was using a ChatrSIM card on Rogers lock and the card I tested was a bell Micro SIM card and it worked. Going to buy Chainfire like 3 beers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JUSMEJOSE:

Hi,

This might sound stupid. But I have a note 3 that is locked to ATT - which Chainfire CF auto root thing should I download?

I am on their website now http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/

and none of them seem to support N900a? Does that mean it can not be use with ATT note 3?

Thanks!

Rock an Roll, worked like a champ.

Data LTE super fast on att network, just add the correct att apn settings...bam, done.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] @rbiter:
I dont think so. I think chain fire's root is for unlocked bootloader. Look around in att note3 forums. There should be a couple root methods floating around if none have been patched yet. And next time get a T-Mobile phone with unlocked bootloader. Lol.

I used chainfire's regionlock away on my tmobile note 3 and inserted my net10 att Sim card and the cell service is working great (incoming and outgoing calls) but when I try to set the new APN I get no data service.

Does the app only unlock cellular service and not data service as I thought it did? Or do I need to use different APN settings other then the one net 10 says to use for that Sim card?

Or do I just need to have my phone professionally unlocked??

Tried the Sim card on a Att note 2 and worked great. Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks..

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------

Never mind, got it! Anyone else that wants to use net 10 on their sim locked t mobile note 3, just use Chainfire's region unlock app from play store, use straight talks APN settings, and good to go!!!

Hi All

Followed the directions exactly but when I rebooted with my current AT&T sim, it continuously looks for the network and when I try to manually connect to the AT & T network in the "Available Networks" screen, it is unable to connect and says to try again later.

Anyone have this problem?

I didn't even have my t-mobile sim inserted.. I inserted att sim first and tried it without regionlock app it asked for network unlock code.

Also I used ROOT de la Vega now available for T-Mobile Note3 :) for root.

After following instructions I went to mobile networks -> network operators -> scan now, after couple minutes of searching it showed me 3 networks: ATT, T-Mobile and 311660

Selected ATT and viola - registered on ATT network (I did have to add APN manually otherwise it only went to 4G (5mbps)

I just got off the phone with metropcs for an hour and it seems that since my neighbor has Tim Lee.mobile and can't use his phone in a huge area where I can I thought my s4 was a cdma and GSM device and switched somehow to T-Mobile when metropcs was not getting good -reception I find this not to be true if said GSM cannot use CDma network, so I asked the metropcs. Rep how is it that I got full signal and hspa + while ,my neighbor can't even make text or call and she said even though T-Mobile owns metropcs ,metropcs customers on a GSM phone will get metro coverage and T-Mobile's hspa+ & even lte when available, when T-Mobile customers will not.lol sounds like metropcs customers came up while T-Mobile stays put to me. I don't know if it's true all I know is that my neighbor has to stand 50 feet from his unit to get a signal as to my cell phone works fine and when I go to that spot I get lte....crazy huh?

Or could it be that he has a older phone and that is why? Or is that ruled out because the sim prl or whatever it is that tells this phone where to receive the signal is outdated?
