He was told in that thread there's no way out of that. I understand JB has a different bootloader than ICS.

strange..that some people can unlock on jb, some not (excluding people like me, who are unable to unlock in general ^^)
so maybe Asus is providing an updated version of the unlock tool in the near future...a working one would be really nice...

Just unlocked last night after upgrading to JB the night before.
I know it says for ICS only, but it worked just fine for me on JB.

Did you try to unlock on ics or was this your first attempt?

First attempt. I never tried to unlock it on ICS since I didn't want to void the warranty.
I upgraded to JB via the US_epad_user_10_4_2_15_UpdateLauncher.zip flash from micro-sd, and lost root in the process.
Since my warranty is almost over, I said the hell with it and unlocked with the UnLock_Device_App_V6.apk tool from Asus, so I could get root back.
Worked perfectly on the first try!
Good to hear! kwineon's experience had me thinking it wouldn't work.
I'm going to pull the trigger and unlock/nvflash soon. I've held off and postponed the OTA.

Use droidstyle's guide. Section 1b has odin to stock. Use the vramc3 file and it will be on the latest ota and relocked.

After going through the unlock process on the Verizon Note 2, would I be able to then use a MetroPCS sim card in it? I went through the entire process in Casual, it said I was unlocked, but when i popped my metro sim, it wouldn't recognize it.
I'm guessing I either messed up somewhere, or it isn't capable of doing it.
Can anyone shed some light?

No, the bootloader update is locked so you cannot go backwards at all. That's VZW's way of saying "we love our customers" :good:

I only have 3 root friends in real life. 2 of them will fight it till it works even if they don't know exactly what they are doing. The other one, is buying a windows phone next upgrade because he had a poor experience(because he bought the htc one x instead of the galaxy s3..)

Does the dump include the modem? We desperately needed the modem to be ported to the international versions (I-9200 and I-9205). HSPA+ signals are very inconsistent and I believe porting the modem from the AT&T version will help us a lot.

You would ideally need a new stock Rom which includes the modem.

No roms will work, if ever, on this device because it has been "protected" by Att from running unsigned boot and recovery images.

It's just a matter of time. The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that of all the millions and millions of android phones that ATT sells......why would they decide to lock this ONE phone? Just not logical....the Intl model can be rooted...I feel strongly this one can also.

Ok. I made a 100% stock rom based on the touchwiz kitkat note 3 international leak. I need a couple people to test it for me because I don't have a developer edition device. Which is needed because of the updated kernel. Contact me at [email protected] on Hangouts. Warning retail owners do not message me because it won't work.

You will need to install the kernal. Which SS does not do. Even getting it running you would have lots of issues with a 4.3 kernal.
