Tmobile - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hey I was wondering, how come we can't do like the skyrocket and get 3g/4g on Tmobile like they do?

maybe because the skyrocket and the tmobile gs2 are the same damn phone?
the i777 isnt anywhere near the same.....

Because we don't have hardware 1700 MHz support.
The Skyrocket hack takes advantage of the fact that the T-Mobile T989 and Skyrocket are basically identical except for the modem firmware - flashing a T989 modem effectively turns the Skyrocket into a T989.
(AT&T uses 1700 MHz for LTE)

Okay oh thank u, and thank you for not being rude

This is the international version. You can buy it unlocked and use it on AT&T, but the U.S. Variants haven't been announced.

This is a phone discussion forum, not a carrier forum. I see no reason why you should post this here. Try the off-topic forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=261

Why does everybody assume that the big two will get it first? The Vibrant was released first on T-Mobile, it might just be that case this time around too.

correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't T-Mobile USA just bought by AT&T? just sayin'
You think they're going to let an 80 million subscriber company swallow a 30 million one? And plus, that doesn't get in the way of phone releases. There's still a year to go: plenty of time to sell a variant of the SGSII on T-Mo.

Alright so I was off on the subscriber numbers. That still doesn't change the fact that this deal right now is most likely not going to happen. As the articles you posted say, removing T-Mo from the picture would relieve the pressure the carrier puts on the others with its low prices not to mention a significant amount of people that are against the acquisition, including several members of the FCC.
EDIT- Fixed a few grammatical errors.

You are right. do not know why you are being harassed here
TMo will be doing its own business for at least a year.
It will release its own variant of SGS2. I would not be surprised if ATT again has a unique to it shape.

Why bother waiting for a contract-chaining, feature-deprived, update-delayed, support-deficient, bloat-filled, subsidized version? The international version is 100% compatible with AT&T.

Oh I see your point. But "att already has it" is not correct, speaking your language it WILL have it on May 1st.
And to answer your "why bother question" - because it will be 3.5x cheaper subsidized, it can be freely swapped at AT&T if anything is wrong with the set, and it will carry a one year warranty. Some people prefer this to having no bloatware .
And I HOPE since there is no more exclusivity to iPhone, AT&T won't be maiming features of its android phones.
That said, if I hear that AT&T is releasing at end of July, I will probably buy an import
Wow... quite descriptive.
Ultimately, you will enjoy this device more as how Samsung envisioned it. Although, if you cannot afford the international rates, then the ATT / TMO versions will not differ to much aside from the Software. That can always be modified later on.

Galaxy Note ATT on Tmobile 3g?

Hi, I have been reading some posts in the Radio thread reporting that they are using the T-mobile Modem. It was unclear whether they had it working on the T-mobile network or just using the modem on the ATT network.
Is there anyone here using the Galaxy Note on T-mobiles 1700Mhz AWS 3G band and getting internet and sms and everything no problem?
I just want to make sure before I go out and purchase one for a lot of money and not have it working.
I will test it once my Note comes in on Wednesday.
My plan is to unlock it here [ http://www.cellunlocker.net/ ], then Odin a t989 modem and test away.
If anyone already has a Note is willing to try this then go for it.
The Att Note does NOT use the 1700mhz band for AWS. I am on my phone but if you want a link Engadget wrote a whole article on it.

Yes, because out of the box it doesn't work. The skyrocket required a t989 modem, so its safe to say this does also.
Now it very well could still not work even after a modem flash... but its worth a try

easy to say it's worth a try when it's not your money
my advice to the OP.....save your cash, wait for some other guy with money to burn to try it. Maybe itsjusttim would be kind enough to bust out the greenies to give it a whirl

Can people please stop referring to the Engadget post. All they are saying is that it will NOT work by just unlocking it out of the box. Please see I have posted some questions for Myriam on Engadget that posted that article and she said this article was only meant out of the box in her replies since most people will not root and stuff she was simply talking about out of the box.

No idea, to my knowledge I don't think any non-T-Mobile has worked with WiFi calling, but then again... I have not done enough research on the subject.
Hope it works. I'm thinking of getting one on Friday

I don't believe that one would work.. our best bet for that is to have a developer who is partial to T-Mobile and takes the version from the t989 and adds it to a rom.
I'm sure it could be done, but we would have to convince a dev to help.

No. The only phone works with T-mo 3G is the ones released by T-Mo. Stop ask this question over and over again.

don't be so sure, I was corrected when I said the same thing, apparently this phone can support t-mobile 3g/4g network with some modifications, check the development forum.

The ppl who asked this kind of clueless question probably won't have a clue how to mod the modem of the phone either. Besides, I haven't seen any post about successfully done such transformtion yet.

Now that it has been a long time since rooting..

What is now the fastest most efficient way of rooting my friends Sprint Galaxy S2 (USA so I am assuming its i-777)?
Ultimately I simply want to root him first and install AOKP rom on his phone.

It looks like it is the ATT mega, so you should be good. Looking at the posting, it does say it is for ATT so i wouldnt worry. Also, looking at the pics, i see the ATT logo on the battery cover
