Who says?
You don't have to do anything but put in a t-mobile sim and type in the code you got from at&t.

I just unlocked my wife's note and it was on 2.3.6 and i followed the galaxy s2 T-Mobile version instructions the one with the hidden menu and worked but mine is on 4.0.4 and the hidden menu is different so i want to downgrade to GB to use the same method and unlock it.

You have to buy a code or get it from at&t. This phone isn't the same as the S2.
But you can enter the code in any rom version, so don't bother with the downgrade.

Does not install as a .EXE (Odin) on Cdn Rooted Note
Everyone seems to like to use ODIN with these leaked UCL ROMs and basically folks it will not install on the Canadian (Bell, Rogers, Telus) devices. Samsung explains that the Canadian Galaxy Notes actually have a processor upgrade which the AT&T didn't get (because they went so quick to market).
I've had an engineer in Rogers Data Centre (who knows a thing or two about Samsung devices) and he has been unable to get any of the bundled installs in .exe format to install to a rooted Canadian Note. Both others that are .zip and with CMW installs with no issues.

Need help. Australia I9300T???

Guys i just don't understand the difference between international S3 and Australia Vodafone S3 with code T
Does anyone figure out any differences?
And are there any customised roms that fit this type of S3?
Thx
No difference for development purpose. Both are same. Only difference is that T version is more customised for 850 networks.
The only thing you need to make sure is to use modem version that is more suitable to your network. But that does not mean that other modems can brick your device.

So it is nearly no dangers for flashing international version S3 roms? And all i need to concern is which modem works better? Am i right?

From reports I have read on Whirlpool, with the Galaxy S2 there was no improvement on the 'T' version on Telstra, but Telstra actually 'detuned' the 900mhz channel....
I had issues on Telstra with my non- T version S2, losing connection in my kitchen etc.... I used a friends 'T' version- absolutely no difference, the same asu etc right next to each other, same data rate, same issue of people not hearing me from my kitchen...
I know that is not discussing the S3, but it wouldn't surprise me if there is no difference at all, just marketing a way to promote some sort of exclusivity. When I was on Telstra with the S2, other modems than the Telstra one actually gave me better data rates...

Now my I9300T is under the 2-year contract with Vodafone. The net lock hasn't unlocked yet.
Is there anything I should do before flashing any rom I want? I mean do I have to crack the net lock before flashing via odin or CWM?
Just got mine today from vodafone.. unlocked it in 30min.. did a SIM swap @ Telstra. Got home flashed cfroot the revolution hd superwipe then revolution hd2.2

Cool and thx:good:
Actually I'm just from I9000 which I used for 2 years. It seems that the ways of flashing roms through odin or CWM are excetly same.
I'm new here. Looks like XDA has several forums for different versions of S3 (ATT, T-mobile, etc). So next time when I want to find some roms or discuss with you guys, shall I post in the forum named "Samsung Galaxy S III I9300" or other S3 forum with a specific tele company name ?

[Q] [Help] How to downgrade from jb to ics?

I recently bought my galaxy note i717m from Bell in Canada and unlocked it with network unlock code purchased on internet. Then, I got someone from kijiji to root my phone and upgraded from ics to jb and made the phone to work with wind/mobilicity. I am now using a wind sim card on my phone but i found out that the jb system is very buggy and crashed too often, Anyone knows how to downgrade jb to ics or recommend a more stable jb rom? Does downgrading to ics or changing to a new rom will make my phone not supporting wind/mobilicity anymore? I dont know anything about android btw, anyone kind enough to write me a simple guide? Thanks a lot!

how to check?
Okay restart the phone by pressing power+ volume up and down at the same time until you see the first Samsung logo tht will take you to recovery that's is how you will see. Seems like you are new to this. Most of all the jb roms out there are good but buggy and also battery drainers I speak of past experience long story short if you want stability keep stock ics until jb is officially released...

Nice guide, thanks so much! However, my phone was bought from BELL store in Canada,does it the same stock rom as AT&T? When it was bought, it was locked to bell, unrooted and only support 1900/PCS frequency, does not support 1700/AWS frequency till I got someone from kijiji to help me turn on the AWS radio frequency support in the phone by flashing rom, rooting and stuff. If I follow your guide, would my phone get locked and lost support to AWS frequency?

This one you have to Odin it but ur ain't hard just make sure you back up all of your internal sdcard stuff since this Odin will wipe the crap out of the system lol happened to me luckily the external SD didn't got wiped. By the way
By doing this you will loose root and also clockworkmod you have to re root the phone

That means the phone would not support wind sim card and its AWS frequency just like when it was bought at the bell store, locked?

[Q] Second-hand Bell i9100m to stock

A friend of a friend was giving us a lift today, and she asked if we could turn on navigation on her phone since she was in the middle of driving. Her phone is a Galaxy S II, definitely i9100 and not the other variants (4.3" not 4.5", physical home button). She was running it on Telus but she bought it second-hand a few weeks ago so I assume it was a Bell or Virgin model.
Anyway I could see from afar that it was most definitely still running Gingerbread, and I wondered why it hadn't gotten the ICS update. I asked if I could see the phone and I went to the About screen - it's running 2.3.6, and the build number says Super ROM. Then I looked in her app drawer and saw Superuser. She is not the type who knows how to root a phone or would even want to, so the likely explanation is that the seller had installed a custom ROM and neglected to revert it before sale.
I've never owned an i9100... If she were to ask for help returning it to stock, would the simplest way just be to flash the Bell ICS ROM using Odin? Are there any precautions I'd need to take in case something the last owner had installed would be incompatible with the flash?

To be clear, she is a non power user. The ideal ROM for her is whatever would've been on there by now if it had never been hacked. So I believe that'd be ICS.

Just flash the ics of bell version since shes not a power user i did the same for wife shes has no intentions of using any custom roms for her just basic use
and i assume you know where too get that and yes flash in odin the stock version either from here you can get it or samfilmware ics version for 19100m
cheers
Thanks!
Actually I should add... The SuperROM she had on there said the device was i9100G. Is it possible that's just because it's what it says in the ROM, and it's still really an i9100m? Cause now I see they have different processors...

Hey. You better first make sure that the Galaxy S unlock tool isn't there, otherwise that's how the seller sim-unlocked the phone. Putting it on ics may lock it back up but you can unlock it again. If you move it to jellybean though, the unlock tool doesn't work yet. Ics is good enough for her.

Hey I'm also looking to update my phone and I'm sort of in the same situation as this girl. I bought my phone second hand and found out later that it was rooted and has CyanogenMod 7.1 on it. My model is the I9100 and my provider is Telus. I was looking to update it to CM10, but one of my concerns is that it might get locked again and I won't be able to use my phone on Telus. Should I just settle for CM9? Will it for sure get locked again? I'm a noob.

Presumably if it's genuinely an i9100G and not m (I'm not sure, as I only saw the phone once), it wasn't from a Canadian carrier. In which case who knows how it was unlocked.

at&t radio for verizon note 2??

im using my note 2 with at&t.. i get 3g/hspa+ now untouched stock 4.1.2 verizon note 2. would it be possible to flash a custom rom then a at&t radio to pick up lte?
I'm interested in this as well. I'm currently using Straight Talk (AT&T) on my i605. 4G would be awesome! I've done some reading, and supposedly it's just a software restriction holding us back from connecting to that band. I could be wrong.

i dont think it'd work without bricking/killing the radio to your phone all together, but i could be wrong, especially since I'm still running on vzw.
Maybe flashing an AT&T modem would do the trick. I'm scared to try though. I don't want to end up with a paperweight...

no you do not want to flash another carriers modem/radio unless you want to permanently lose data.

agreed, but you do not want to flash another carriers radio/modem or another carriers stock firmware via odin. Flashing a .zip rom in recovery that has been properly modified for another carrier is different.
I'm on Net10 and I'm running a AT&T rom . only ROM I have found that let's me run 4.3. I tried T-Mobile but couldn't even get it to flash. But one att rom worked for me. Didn't have to add any APN setting. Just worked flawlessly
