Not really. The G900A (AT&T version) has a locked bootloader which means the kernel and bootloader cannot be changed. I'm not sure exactly what you are asking. There are certain G900F (International version) ROMs that can run on the G900A, but it's still the G900A. For those ROMs you should go to the G900A threads to get more information and ask this question there to get better responses. This is the T-Mobile forum.
Sorry

Again, we need to know exactly what it is you want to do. Then we can advise. You have a G900T and it cannot be a G900F although it can do similar things. Exactly what are you trying to accomplish?

Are you talking about putting a G900F rom on the tmobile version? If yes, then yeah you can do that with on problems.

I have a T-Mobile S5 and am using on AT&T with Omega rom which is basically a G900F rom. But I still use the G900T's modem and boot loader. It works very well that way and is not very hard to do. If you go over to the G900F threads and read some of the ROM threads (such as Omega) it will explain how it's done.
Good Luck!

I get myself a Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300T a few months ago. I bought it from Bangkok, Thailand. And I live in Malaysia. That means : my phone doesn't have warranty anymore.
I just rooted my phone last Monday. And now I'm planning to flash this rom - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43677412#post43677412
And I checked in the google, someone said that I have to unlock the bootloader in order to flash custom rom.
My question is : do I have to unlock boot loader to flash custom rom ? ( I have already rooted my GT-I9300T )
Seniors, please help me. I hope that someone will answer me, please don't ignore me. Thank you. All the best for you.
No. You to not need to touch the bootloader at all.

The only difference with the "T" model is it is optimised for Australian frequencies, standard i9300 Roms work fine, and the modems work ok but if you go to the modem thread you can grab the modem/Ril for the T variant you will be optimised for Australia

Nope. Only official ROMs should include modems. When you flash custom ROMs, modem is left untouched.
SOME custom ROMs may have an option to (or force) modem flash, but this will be seamless so you wont have to do anything special.

So you mean to say that you have installed a custom ROM , in that case you need to go back to stalk (remove custom bootloader )and remove root to get any official Update , if that ever gets ON AIR....

Dosent Matter , Your Bootloader never Lies , what you have got is the At&t /Telus Version , Well as Far as I know the Telus Version doesent have the HTC logo.. but that doesent make it a HOX+ International , internally it is same as that of At&t version of the phone ..

No Sorry Not Yet , I even doubt there will be one any time soon. What ever if you can find a good custom rom with sense 5 or may be Llior's CM (10.2) Roms, they are much better in performance than the overly bloated SENSE ROMS .

You should never flash anything that is not for your model number. Different phones have different hardware, mainly the processors. There are plenty of good ROMs for the Sprint version of the Note 3, even a good Note 4 port. Also if you were to flash software designed for a different device you could hard brick you device which would suck. I'd encourage you to read the forums a little bit, there's great information and most people are will to answer questions as long as they haven't been asked already, plus use the search bar here and that may point you where you need to go. I hope this has helped you out.

No, flashing the whole firmware from a different Note 3 is not a good idea, especially a stock firmware package including modem & bootloader files.
You may get away with running a ROM from a different model using the instructions in THIS thread.

It has been unlocked by Sprint for overseas use.
If someone pops in their AT&T SIM card, will it work on AT&T's GSM network?
