[Q] needed help to unlocked i717 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

hi i bought locked in calgary galaxy note i717 (already have cynogenmod version 10.0.0-RC0-quincyatt & paranoid android version 2.21)
how can i find carrier of my i717

I don't understand your question. Are you asking what carrier the phone is locked to? Model number under battery will tell you that? Are you asking how to unlock phone for any carrier? I believe with Canadian Notes it is better to use a third party unlocking service (like from ebay) to get the phone unlocked if it already isn't. But on the other hand I think some Canadian Notes come unlocked from factory. If the phone is unlocked, maybe you just need to enter the APN for your carrier.
For future reference, questions should be posted in the questions and answers section.

OP yes please explain your question and this has been moved to the Q&A. Thank You

Go to www.samfirmware.com and you can find the stock carrier rom. You can flash it with Odin software and a pc and the charging cable.
When you flash it your phone won't be rooted anymore.

I thought my answer was sufficient but OK.

Where is your answer Sir? I only see the post I quoted. Maybe the Tapatalk app doesn't show all replies? I don't normally jump in on a good answer, and I don't much like it when others do it to me, either.

It got deleted because I advised op to stab himself in the thigh with a fork to make sure he was awake because there are so many copies of this thread lying around within the first few pages. No search utility even required.

Ok, that's a good answer. But I was pushing for a solution. I like the cockroach joke in the other unlocking thread three post from this one.

Well Sir, your jokes or comments are not helping....there is a right way and wrong way to provide assistance and your way is not right.
If it bothers you so much that individuals are asking and looking for assistance, then stay out of the Q&A threads. Now I do not mind showing members assistance but bottom line they have to figure it out them self's. Teach them, not bash them.
Again if I see you bashing instead of providing, Stand By Sir. Thank You

Why do you refuse to enforce the first rule of XDA? SEARCH!
This is allowing the boards to become a haven for laziness and helplessness.

Dear All seniors
Thanks for your valuable suggestions
the phone which i bought was locked to roger. i flash last night with stock rom
now i have 2 question
a how to carrier unlock galaxy note i717r
b which rom should i flash my galaxy note so i work with mobilicity
thanks

You have to get an unlock code. That is something you purchase from ebay.
The Rogers rom is ok, but you have to flash a modem. Any modem compatable with t-mobile will work for you.

Dear just unlocked my phone
only one problem is left which is to used with mobilicity
so can u send me the link to get flash with a modem so my phone can run with mobilicity

[Q] Network Lock Status Code Not working.

Hey everyone.
I have the Canadian SGH-I747M model S3 from Bell Canada.
I try'd to use the Network Lock status code to see about SIM locks and *#7465625# doesn't work. Appearently it works for teh AT&T model I747 though so what does this mean? Is my phone completed unlocked and locks were never even setup at the factory to begin with or is there something else going on?
I try'd asking in the AT&T section Q&A but my question fell on def ears no one knows/cares.
Thanks.
Code works fine on international model.
Appears you device model just doesn't support the code.

No problem.
Sorry for a lowly User answering your question.
As I said, obviously the code doesn't work for your device model. Your model is not the international I9300, so your posting on the wrong forum anyway....
Maybe change your title to "Devs need only reply"
Edit: you didn't mention you new the code works for the international version, that's why I included the screenshot of what to expect.

You miss understand me.
I ment a dev or someone with more in dept knowledge as to why the code is not working such as the possibility of being with out any locks or something other then "oh well it just doesnt work with yours" not helpful . I also mentioned that the AT&T I747 model works with the code and it is the exact same phone hardware wise, only difference is slight changes in firmware by the carriers.
I have already said I asked in that sections Q&A and got no where, and so I am here looking for someone more experianced, I came here because the more experianced devs and knowledgeable people work on the international model.
Theres no need to be rude.
On the contrary mate, I deemed your response to be rude :banghead: We're all here to help each other
As I said, you never mentioned that you knew the code worked on our model ! Otherwise why I would post the screenshot?
Learn to be more specific in your posts buddy, then you'll maybe get the answer you need, and without wasting users time.
Sorry for not being off any help
Peace

[Q] About Kernels and the SGS3 Bootloader

whats up good folks of the sgs3 thread!! So I was thinking about comming over to vzn via way of tmous and maybe picking up this phone. However I read on lots of places that the bootlaoder is locked. So here is my question, I havent found a hack yet to unlock the bootloader, so how is it that yall have unsecured kernels for the sgs3? Am I wrong to assume that the bootloader would not let custom kernels be fully installed? or does installing roms via odin get past the bootloader? forgive my ignorance ive had the g2x (then the hd2) for the longest time and havnt had to deal with locked bootloaders... anyone care to shed some light on me? Please and thank you.
I don't live in the US but apparently the Verizon bootloader is the only one that is locked. So don't go with them.
I had no idea the phone companies in America had such a ridiculous monopoly on the system over there, it's very foreign to me. I just got the international S3 from the UK.
Yea it does suck for sure. But yea I think your right. And that's been the whole consensus everywhere I read.. No sense in volunteering myself into a crappy position when the same phone is with tmous and unlocked and my contract is done. Ima call them on the morrow and see if they can give me a better deal.

Sorry to tell you this, but based on your experience level and understanding of the parameters of your device, I'm not sure too many people can help you until you help yourself a bit.
First, read! Sounds simple and it is. Start at the top of this forum and read about ROMs, flashing, seeking help, etc. Once you're ready go to the questions section of the forum and frame a specific question with all the pertinent background and relevant information.
Believe me, people here want to help, but only help... not do all the research, analysis, and preparation for you.
Start again and you'll be surprised how easy it is.

I must say... it's very refreshing to see such sage advice from someone with such a low post count.
Op, read and adhere to this advice and like stated it'll be much easier on everyone.
Zancro, you stay cool dude, keep up the good positive attitude, and always keep learning. then I might not have to post as much
Or buy a code from ebay. Then you only have to type a few numbers -- no flashing experience needed.

You might be best to search online and find a website that sells unlock codes for your phone.
Buy the code, insert unknown SIM card in phone and enter the unlock code when prompted.

I think that you can find your firmware on sammobile and flash it on Odin . but i dont think that flashing another modem will unlock your device , that can even cause damage to your device . Dont try to flash zip from another model in any situation

You don't need to downgrade your rom. You can flas a modem even if you don't have root. If you have a custom recovery than just flash the modem.

Better off to say Touchwiz sucks as opposed to 4.1.2 sucks. There are 2 developers that still work 4.1.2 and your going to come off real ungrateful for their efforts. There is not a thing wrong with their ROMs. You just have to know how to fine tune them to your needs. Don't bash them if you can't do it. Just don't run them.
Its not the ROM that bricked your phone

what are you talking about.. at which point in my post did i say anything about the developers and what they do? you should really stop posting things unless your going to help. it seems in every thread i make or post a reply your right there with something to say that doesn't help and your in most of the thread I have read with no help other than to say read and look at the super everything thread. Those arent answers when people are asking questions. If anyone takes the time and reads everything than they wont have to ask questions but that isnt going to happen and thats why forums are created, to help and support and I know i've said this before to you on one of my posts. He asked about downgrading and i said that 4.1.2 sucks. Did i say that the developers or the after market roms suck? No I didn't. I've used several different roms and all the after market roms run much smoother that stock.

Dude, you need to seriously take chill pill. I was quoting you, 4.1.2. Sucks.
I have done nothing but try and help you, including coaching you on your ediquite here. With your clueless way of being vague, you are bad mouthing developers. We are trying to keep them here.
I wasn't the one who recently posted about running a Note 2 ROM on our device. No wonder you bricked yours.
Look at my post count, look at yours.
Look at my thanks count, look at yours.
You are everywhere posting about same issues, multiple times and in multiple threads. Issues that only you seem to have.
I have even PM'd you and tried to help, but you only read what you want to read and question more experienced members who have solid practices. Don't want my help fine, don't post without researching your personel issues. You won't believe anybody anyway.
Good luck..........geeeeezzzzz.
Yes I edited this, as I went on a tangent regarding this, but common decency got the better of me. I hope the other one was read though.

Ok. Don`t know about unlocking stuff. Here is a thread where you can find some stock Roms. The first one is 4.0.3.

Just flash the J2 modem and follow the steps.
I had to replace my main board, so I took the ota update, then rooted, then realized I didn't unlock. So I flashed the J2 modem, unlocked, and kept that modem. It didn't do any better than the new modem that came with the update.
This thread turned pretty nasty for such a basic question.
Yeah it did. I flipped my ignore button to the on position and I'm goooood
