[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Hi Friends,

I just got a T-Mobile Note 3, that came with Firmware: NB4 (Android 4.4.2).

Can anyone confirm that they were able to Root and then use Region Lock Away to SIM Unlock their phone to use on other Carriers? I would like to use mine on AT&T?

If not possible, what did you do? Can I downgrade via a Custom ROM and then use it? Does installing Custom Recoveries STILL trip the Knox counter? Is there any way around it?

Thank you so much for your quick help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Techngro:
I was able to root with Chainfire's AutoRoot, and then I used his RegionLock Away app to unlock it as well, so yes, it does work. Just follow the instructions carefully.

The method I used tripped Knox, but I don't know if there may be another method now that doesn't trip it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phil.culler:
I don't know of any way to downgrade your firmware but towelroot came out the other day that

should

work with our phone that claims to not trip Knox. I believe it works on the NE6 (latest) firmware. As for Region Lock Away, check the website to see if it has compatibility issues with NE6.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Thank you for your responses guys, I *think* the Firmeware I have is "NB4"... does that sound like a valid release?

And Techngro, could you confirm that you have "NB4" or 4.4.2 and Region Lock Away still worked?

I have been on Sprint N3 for a while, with last ROM installed 6 months ago, just Stock Rooted, Odined. I assume there is still NO WAY to install custom ROMs and Recoveries without tripping Knox?

Thanks again guys!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
when I was on nb4 I was unable to use region lock away and have it carrier unlock. things may have changed, but you will have to trip Knox if you want a root method for nb4. towelroot works on ne6 without tripping Knox, but again BBB unsure if region lock away has compatibility issues.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Thanks for chiming in bud!

I guess, the most important thing to me is getting that SIM unlocked since I want to use it on the ATT network.

The Knox trip seems inevitable to me as well, since I really want to enjoy my Note 3 with all the ROMs and Themes out there, Sammy won't honor my warranty anyway, since I bought my phone from Craigslist...

So can anyone confirm or negate, if getting the SIM unlock via NB4 is possible? If so, how did they exactly do it?

If not, and I have Custom Recovery installed, can I just jump to ANY older ROM and basically get the Region Lock to work?

Thanks again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
Once on the 4.4 bootloader, you cannot roll back. You can definitely just use cf autoroot, and try out region lock away. It will trip Knox, but if inevitable, might as well take the plunge now and give it a try.

Or, upgrade firmware to ne6, use towel root, try region lock away. This way you keep Knox in tact and can report back.

But why do you need region away? Is the phone not paid off? If it is, just get unlock code from t-mobile. Mine only took 2 days.

Fusionized tweaking tapatalker here...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Thanks for the very helpful advice there, bud.

Let me see if I understand these correctly:

1. No way to NOT trip Knox on NB4 and Root

2. To root without Knox I have to take a Firmware update to NE4 then do TowelRoot

3. Even if I have the Knox 0x0, there is NO WAY on the T-Mobile Note 3 to install and use Custom ROMs, Recoveries, Themes, and/or Kernels, correct? Because I thought ATT allowed that via Safe Strap?

I bought my Tmo N3 from Craigslist, probably never gonna have anyone honor a warranty on it - Sammy or Tmo. I am not a Tmo customer and wanna use the Tmo N3 on an ATT Prepaid MVNO, like Straight Talk.

That's why I need the Region Lock Away or SIM Unlock to work...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
correct. if you came from jb to nb4 release, then you could've retained root through a work around method without tripping Knox.

but... since you are already on nb4 with Knox 0x0, there is no root method that doesn't trip it.

also correct that you can upgrade firmware through ne6 and use towel root without tripping Knox.

lastly, if your phone is paid off though, whether you have service or not through t mobile, they can provide you with the unlock code, because the phone is in fact paid for. unless it is not, then I can see the reason for region lock away.

Fusionized tweaking tapatalker here...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Again, thank you for the great response bud!

Another root method I heard *may* work without the Knox trip is the Kingo Root... any thoughts?

Can you (or anyone else reading this) confirm, that if I wanted to install Custom ROMs and Themes on this phone, there is NO WAY I can do that without tripping Knox?

Lastly, I think if you are not a Tmo customer in some capacity or another, they just will not give you the code, I think... So I need the Region Lock Away :(...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
Kingo root only works on 4.3. will not work on your current firmware.

Give T-Mobile a call first, you just may get it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Thanks much bud!

Has anyone else had success with Region Lock Away on NB4? If so, what was your Root Method?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Techngro:
Sorry for the long response time. Yes, I believe I was on NB4 when I rooted and unlocked, but I don't remember for sure. I know I am currently on NB4 though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Anonymous777:
What exactly do you mean by getting an unlock code from tmobile?? For about the past month I've been in Arkansas and i swear all they have is at@t towers and Verizon. I'm basically using my edge network the whole time which doesn't suffice. Is this unlock code something that let's you pick up off the other towers or would I need to go another route?!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
This whole thread is about SIM unlocking the T-Mobile note 3 to use on another carriers network. The T-mobile note 3 is able to pretty much use any GSM carriers sim card (i.e. AT&T, Straight Talk, AIO/Cricket Wireless...) if you receive your unlock code: either through t-mobile themselves (by having a paid off phone), by using the region lock away by [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] (may not work on all firmwares), or purchasing an unlock code from one of the websites that offer sim card unlocking. Once unlocked you can get one of the pre-paid sims (like AIO or Straight talk) for $10 and use AT&T towers, or just completely switch carriers.

This is in no way shape or form speaking about using root on these phones with an unlocked bootloader, which seems to confuse most people. I know you didn't ask this, just wanted to put it out there for anyone else who may be confused.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Anonymous777:
Okay that makes sense, thanks man!

Couple months ago my original S4 came to a decision that it would no longer make sound, other than a buzzing sound. Got a refurb sent for a replacement and now it had decided to just die, wont even charge. Still able to get another free replacement but I'm not going to keep it, sell it and get something that will hopefully have a longer life.

[LG G Flex] ajsmsg78:
I just went back to Stock KitKat, took the new OTA (T-Mobile) and rooted with towelroot. Everything went fine. When I was removing some bloat and restarted I get the LG Boot Logo and a Security Error underneath it. I cannot get into the Bootloader at all. Holding volume up and plugging in the usb cable does nothing. I can, however, get into stock recovery and wipe but that doesn't fix anything. Does anyone have any idea how to get out of this soft brick?
[LG G Flex] ajsmsg78:
I gave up and went into T-Mobile and purchased another line with a Note 3 and swapped the SIM. T-Mobile overnighted me a new G Flex which I'm gonna use as a second "house" line and use the Note 3 as my primary line. It's so much easier to deal with a Samsung Phone as it's not locked down like the LG phones are. Thanks to everyone here who has been trying to get a KitKat recovery working.
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
I thought the note 3 on kk was locked?
[LG G Flex] ajsmsg78:
I don't think it is. I got the new phone, took the OTA to the latest version (NE6) rooted with CFAutoRoot, installed TWRP and AOKP and it was as easy as it was when I had my Note 2 and 3 on Sprint.
[LG G Flex] wase4711:
I believe the note 3 has been unlocked on TMO for a long time..

when I got my flex in February, there were already tons of roms for the note 3 on TMO
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
You know I was about to edit my post I knew there were a ton of roms cuz I used to be on a testing team for beanstalk builds but someone remarked that if you took the kk update it locked the note 3? Eh I'm probably misinformed like usual lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nYdGeo:
I can't believe that I'm posting a battery drain issue, but I'm new to Samsung and for the first time in years, I'm not rooted.

I've had my Note 3 for about 2-months. As a norm, I have no issue with the battery life that I get with this phone, being able to use it regularly throughout my long day, rarely ever needing to change it except overnight. However, on three occasions, a system app has appearantly hung up and drained the battery at an alarming rate, and at work around 1:00 or 2:00 PM, I'm getting a 15% battery warning instead of the usual 75% - 85% remaining.

Today it was the Gallery app. It was only used once late this morning when I made a screenshot, but discarded it. The previous time it was Maps, which I had not manually used, and the first time is was Google Search. All three different, the timing seemingly completely at random. I can determine no pattern to it..

Curious if anyone has observed similar behavior, and/or has any useful information on the topic that they might share.

Thank you for your time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] phyba:
U have location services on?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nYdGeo:
Yes. That service could indeed be tapped by all three of the applications that have been involved in these incidents. You thinking maybe its the location services that's tripping them up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jdelano:
check out better battery stats it will show you what is running amuck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nYdGeo:
I may do that in an attempt to learn more detail about the issue, but the culprit is clear. Since first noticing the Gallery eating things up days ago, the attached image shows what has become the norm. Rebooting, closing the Gallery and clearing cache, etc., nothing changes this. The Gallery app has gone crazy. May try resetting the phone over the weekend and see if that clears up whatever has caused this.

Oh, just noticed "Tag Buddy" is enabled in the Gallery app. Killed it so I can see what effect that may have.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
In addition to tag buddy, turn off Picasa in account settings for your linked Gmail address, and from gallery, see if Dropbox sync is on. If yes, kill it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nYdGeo:
Thanks for the tips. I actually have all of them disabled. Didn't have time over the last few weeks to do so, but if I cna find the time I may try wiping the phone this weekend.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nYdGeo:
Well, yesterday I nuked the phone, factory reset. Went through the entire process to reset it up and guess what? The same frigging thing! I guess I'll nuke again today but no tlet any of the apps install. Just setup accounts, set my preferred configuration and see what happens. Then add apps back one at a time. Gonna take forever to get it back to where its useful on a dialy basis, but I cannot find any information anywhere regarding this issue. Wild to think of all the Note 3 users, I'm the only one experiencing this.

While I'm at it, my only other issue with this phone: anyone know of a setting somewhere to make the voice-to-text work well? I work for the federal government and speak clearly with decent annunciation, yet this device misunderstands worse than any device I've ever used. It gets things like not even close, and I'd love to find a way to make it work more accurately.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or suggestions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nYdGeo:
After reading a great number of posts all over the web, I resolved the issue. It was one of two things or both, or both and one caused the other. My micro SD card, taken from my old HTC Evo 4G LTE (Jewel),had been formatted using Ext4 which worked great, just as it had in my wife's identical phone. However, when I moved these cards to the new Note 3 phones, my phone seems to have had difficulty accessing some of the memory card. It cannot write to or delete from some locations. This may be why I found a folder of what appears to be pictures, but were somehow corrupted and could not be copied. There were scads of them so I've no idea how many images I've lost.

I copied everything that I could off onto my PC. Then I formatted the card from within the Note 3, probably crappy, old FAT, and finally copied what I needed back onto the card. The issue ceased immediately, so it was probably the Gallery app trying to identify/access those corrupted files, or something similar.

Live and learn, right?
[General Questions and Answers] YourNotAboutThatLifeBro:
Hey everyone ^^. Im new to XDA and sort of new to the Android modding scene too. Im curious if i can install any Rom on my Galaxy S5. I know they have to be specifically designed for that phone, but are there certain Roms that are tied to a certain phone carrier/variant? Specially designed? I guess my question would be could i take a Rom made for the Galaxy S5 Dev Edition from Verizon and use that Rom on a galaxy S5 regular verizon variant? Sorry for being such a Newb :/
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
generally speaking the rom has to say its for your exact model/variant/carrier/etc or you will likely have issues and even possibly brick.

as far as specifically a dev rom to your phone, im not positive, but following the rule above, the answer is most likely no you cant.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emoon08:
so i recently towelrooted my att gs5 and superusersu asked to diable knox so i did, later i had some issues so i factory reset the phone. however it says knox 0x0 so it is not tripped. However it says in application manager that knox has 0.0 mb of data. i just want to re install, or re enable knox. can someone tell me hoe to do that or if its even possible. I thought that sense it was not tripped i should be able to still recover it so i can use private mode and art runtime. THANKS!:good:

Hey guys!

For all the owners out there who have the S4 Active running 4.4.2 NC9 with the MF1 modem.bin, don't worry anymore!

If you're rooted, you should be able to do this, and if not, have a computer with Linux or a Terminal emulator for Windows.

Follow this link and it should teach you how to extract files in a tar.md5 format to flash through ODIN. Someone can extract their NC9 modem.bin and upload it for the rest of everyone having problems.

If you're wondering why I didn't do it myself, ask my parents XD

As always, leave any comments below, and you're welcome!

OH and another things, this is really for the owners that don't have the NC9 modem.bin (and NON-HLOS.bin), that's really it. Other than that, you an use it for whatever. Credit does not go to me, I only found it on Google, credit goes to the poster on the forum the link has you following.

Hi,

I'd like to introduce you first game of newly established studio - Eldritch Games. The game is a slot machine type, with 3 different table concepts, containing bonus games. It's totally free of cost, no in-app purchases, you can add bonus coins every hour and get them for reaching subsequent levels. Game offers over 50 achievements and global leaderboards. To make it different from other slot productions, we decided to use Cthulhu theme, with dark and grim hand-drawn graphics. Music composed especially for the game builds worrisome atmosphere. I hope you will like it and please feel free to comment.

This is the worst tablet in the world, so expensive and slow like a crap river...

Please help me, i install al lot of roms, and still work slow...

Sorry my english...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Make sure you are on the latest bootloader, make sure you don't have a slow sdcard in, do a full wipe of /data in the latest TWRP, flash CROMi-X or CROMBi-kk and profit ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] magem:
Thans

First, THANKS!!! for answer fast .

humm, i will try to don't use the sdcard, now i have Clokworkmod v6.0.4.4 installed and i will install the new CROMBi-kk (i always do a full wipe).

Thanks again.

EDIT:

I hate this tablet, full wipe, no sdcard, new crombi-kk, no apps, open de stock browser tap the navigator bar, try to write "www" (push all this leters in the keyboard), the tablet freeze 2-3 seconds and wrote just one "w".

In the first start (start configuration options) the tablet micro-freeze a lot.

I'm the only one to see that? i have shame to sell this tablet...

Yes just you.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
What's a " full wipe" for you?
[Asus Transformer TF700] DarsVaeda:
It is not just you.

And yes it might be the worst tablet ever for that price.

I had the same issue and got it repaired, helped quite a lot to get a new mainboard.

Now it is at least usable.

Still can't compare it to my Nexus4 but at least I can browse the web :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] huy_lonewolf:
To be fair, I know this is a tough pill to swallow, but you should readjust your expectation a bit. By 2014's standard, any Tegra 3 tablets should be considered entry-level devices, so if you are expecting Nexus-like performance with 60 fps UI all the time, you will be sorely disappointed, regardless of ROMs you are on, simply because the tf700 has really slow internal storage. Having said that, running custom ROMs does make the tablet perform much better than stock and much more usable. You should just follow all the advice above and try all the ROMs/tweaks above to see if the performance of the tablet meets your expectation. If it doesn't, just sell it for a better device. The tf700 right now should be really cheap after all, I doubt that it cost you much to get your current tf700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jacobsensei:
My tf101 just broke, really was good to me.

Saw this for $200, is it worth it?

Any other suggestions in this price range?

Gotta be 10".

I know it's old but that's OK. Gotta be faster than the 101 right?

I want to root for sure...

[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Is that including the dock? If it is, I'd say yeah - it's worth it.

If just the tablet - Newegg, Tiger Direct have the TF701 for $299

That's just 30% more for a much better tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] huy_lonewolf:
To be honest, I remember seeing quite a few people claiming that the tf101 is actually faster than the tf700 (stock vs stock comparison of course), in terms of UI rendering and general smoothness. I am sure if you Google around, you will find a few threads claiming the same thing.

Thanks A LOT, fot your answer.

[Asus Transformer TF700] allendj81:
Sorry for the late recommendation, but you could try C-romiX rom with Data2SD modification. This improves the performance of the tf700 a lot! night and day difference.
[Asus Transformer TF700] magem:
OK

When i use Data2SD, all data go to the external microsd? if yes, my microsd is a HC 4, is too slow?

Thanks, Saludos!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Class 4 is probably too slow but some class 4 cards are quick! My recommendation is stay with a uhs-1 class 10 card if you can.

With data2sd the /data partition now resides and runs off the sd card ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] allendj81:
I can speak for Cromi X 5.4 (which is the official update released by asus but modified by sdbags) its based on android 4.2. It runs great on the tf700 with data2sd mod. Web browsing and download speeds were greatly improved using data2sd. You wont regret doing this. Remember that with this modification, all data will be stored on the SD card you are using (all pictures, music, videos, games, all will go here) so make sure you have a fast sd card with sufficient space. Internal memory will be used only as storage, so if you ran out of space on you external sdcard, you can trasnfer file to internal storage (you can a file manager to do this, I use ESexplorer or root explorer)
[Asus Transformer TF700] magem:
thanks

Guys, I buy a class 10 U-1 microsd, and yes, works better, but slow anyway. (CrombiKK + Data2SD)

Probably wrong wipes and the huge amounts of roms tested, installations and etc, are the problem.

Some Asks

- Rom2SD or Data2SD?

- How can i make a perfect installation? (some some tests left trash)

Thanks for all.

[Asus Transformer TF700] ptnetsurfer:
Hi, my 0,02$. After trial and error, and when I say trial, it's like, I've tryed every ROM and every tweak possible, I've come to a tweak combination that gives me pretty much reasonable performance on my TF700.

After full wipe, and low format the data partition, installed the Zombi-X KK ROM, with fsync and data journaling disabled, browser to RAM enabled. Then, installed the app "Resolution Changer" to adjust the screen resolution to 1280x800 at 160DPI (I know that I could have done that on the ROM setup, but I prefer to do it on the go inside the system, so I can try different combinations, and get back to 1080p resolution with ease, if I want it). I also use the fstrim app, with the memory triming scheduled 3 times a week. Et voilà! It's far from a perfect tablet experience (as it should be, for the its price) but it is much faster and better than stock ROM by far!
