I currently have a VERIZON Galaxy note 3 that has a bad motherboard - I am being given a SPRINT Galaxy note 3 that has a busted screen / Digitizer.. but has a good motherboard.
I want to put the Sprint motherboard in my Verizon note 3 and use it on Verizon 4G LTE. I've been told the bootloader is unlocked, but that the sim is locked by Sprint and can't be used on Verizon or any other carrier, let alone 4G LTE.
Can anyone confirm or deny this? I want to use Alliance ROM (Verizon) and keep / use my 4G LTE. I don't care about any of the Verizon or sprint apps. I usually delete those.

Go ahead and give it a shot. Both phones are jacked from what you say so it won't hurt anything and will give you some knowledge on swapping internals out on the phones themselves.
Good luck and keep me updated on how it goes. Thanks.

It's my understanding that even flashing a Verizon ROM on it won't let it work on Verizon.

So I found someone I might trade my S4 for an HTC One, Its not unlocked but I know several places to unlock it, as I have AT&T.
How well does the T-Mobile HTC One work on AT&T are the correct 3G/HSPA+ bands there? Would LTE work?
100% fine.
Yes, T-Mobiles HTC has the bands for ATT so it will work great
I love my HTC One. I've seen my friend's S3's and this is by far a better device. And to me, the S4 is an overhyped S3 . Just saying

I'm leary of that. We all said the same about the Note2 but I can't get my Note 2 to get LTE service on ATT. Before I grab a TMo One, I'd like to see posts confirming it works out of the box.
Thanks.

I have my Tmobile HTC One on At&t LTE right now and I have done a speed test reaching 35mbps. You do have to make sure your account has had a prior LTE device on the account or the device might only get 3G speeds. I told the phone rep to put my wife's unused HTC One X on my line and gave them the IMEI of that phone. The reason for this is because At&t does not have the Tmobile models in their database, so the only thing they can do is link your One to your line as a generic 3G device.

Ah, that's good advice, and may explain my inability to get LTE on my Note 2. I've never owned an AT&T LTE phone, and never will. I guess picking up a TMo One with intention to unlock and use on AT&T is not going to work for me.

Your tip worked on my Note 2. Once I got ahold of an LTE devices IMEI to give the AT&T rep, they were able to provision my account for LTE and now no issues.
I just picked up a T-Mobile HT One to do the same thing with (I have accounts on TMo and ATT), but the sim unlocking service I usually use is having troubles giving me an unlock code. Weird.
i'm in the same boat but I want to root as well. I have the tmobile phone working on att i think but now do i use a rom from the tmobile section or from the att section? Does it even matter now?

You're gonna need the correct ATT LTE Apn...this is the one I used to use on ATT when I was with them. Data and MMS working.
Same situation here: I bought a T-Mobile HTC one, unlocked it, took it to AT&T, and after a lot of wrestling with them got AT&T LTE and HSPA+ both working (you will need to make sure: your AT&T account is provisioned so your data plan is LTE-capable; you have an LTE-capable SIM card; you have endless patience to push AT&T to give you a 'dummy' IMEI in their database of an LTE-capable phone).
Here's my issue, though: it runs hot whenever the wifi OR the data are on. I'm wondering if it's because I'm running the T-Mobile radio (4A.14.3250.15_10.34.1150.02L) on AT&T's network.
I've been told Android phones "just run hot," or that heat is a product of a rogue application (so far, nothing seems to be running when it shouldn't). I am new to the forums so I can't post over in the development area yet.
Anyone have any thoughts on whether trying a different radio would address the heat issues? Any other heat-diagnosing tips?
Thanks in advance!

I can tell you why I am looking to go to ATT its because T-Mobiles coverage sucks. I have constant issues with their network.
Also when you think about it why would you offer a connection over wifi, shouldn't their phone work.
I bought a prepaid card just to test but I didn't connect to their LTE but I think its because they haven't provisioned it properly.
Time to go back again. I think I want to keep the HTC one because its a good phone can't see getting the S4.
Now att has next but still has the rate plans up there. I like t-mobiles pricing but ATT service is much better.
Find a nice AT&T Salesperson
I used to work at AT&T and i've just used a generic IMEI to provision LTE on a non AT&T phone. If you find a nice salesperson to help you they'll be able to look up a generic IMEI in the systaem for you. Its an internal tool they have to look up an IMEI for you. Hope this helps.
I've done some research on the topic but am having a hard time finding a definative answer on the topic.
I bought my phone thru Verizon (paid in full) intially to ensure I would keep my unlimited data plan. Since this purchase I've discovered that T-Mobile has s $30/mo plan that fits my lifestyle just fine. My intent is to sell my plan (craigslist/ebay/etc) to get out of our contract and make some $$$ on the side.
When I bought this phone 1 of the major draws I saw was that, even though it's a Verizon phone, it wasGSM compatible. I've read plenty of posts about users throwing in a ATT sim card and being good to go. On the tmobile side of things, the results aren't as clear.
So.... Long story short, I'm looking for a definative answer if the Verizon GS4 will fully work on T-Mobile's GSM network and if so, where might one find some guidance on what I need to do if there are any necessary steps involved.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Plain and simple... No, the Verizon GS4 will not work on Tmobile. Verizon is cdma and tmobile is gsm. It will not work

These questions are tricky. Work!? You have to define that word before you get your answer. Voice works and so as data IF you add APN manually (or if it comes automatically from T-Mo). Now by data you mean 2G(EDGE)? 3G(HSPA)? 4G(LTE)? It also depends on whether you are in an area where T-Mo has re-farmed 1900 HSPA. If you are in one of these areas then you got 3G for data. If not, 2G for you. No 4G anywhere for this phone on T-Mo.

Yes, it is %100 possible. It's involved...to the extent that it might not be for those who aren't willing to turn their phone into a PDA.
In this post I explain (condescendingly, because some guy was so sure it wasn't possible) that phones nowadays are capable of multiband...because it's just not cost effective for manufacturers to produce one phone for CDMA, then one for GSM, one for LTE, one for AWS bands, etc etc...you get the picture. If you look up the specs of the chips in the S4 (probably the same across the carriers) you'll see that it's a pentaband phone.
Short story long...I come from a time where there wasn't a "It's not possible"...my job bought me a VZ S4 which I plan on using with my Tmobile simcard...because I don't feel like carrying a Nexus 4 AND an S4...I'll post my progress in the forums for all to benefit from. Until then...
I only tested it for a few minutes.... but I did get lte on it but not sure about aws... on T-Mobile. Sorry I couldn't do a more extensive experiment.

Yes it is possible. And it is actually not that much work.
#1 be rooted
#2 put in tmobile sim and restart phone (cant change apn with vzw sim)
#3 change the apn settings for voice and data to t mobile (google it)
I have been using a verizon i545 S4 on tmobile for 3 weeks now. I have voice text and 4g h+ data.
The S4 is global, even if verizon tries to lock it down.

how are you getting 4g? I'm only getting 2g ;-; i'v ebeen asking everywhere but everybody seems to think it cant be done i guess? I just get ignored by the usually helpful community.
I am also on hyperdrive, have you looked at their coverage map? And what apn are you using tmobile has 3. Standard phones, smart phones, and I believe one for hipsters aka apple? The proper apn starts with fast. (Its 645 in the morning google it yourself)
Another thing to consider, you might be getting 4g or h what ever, t mobile is half as fast as verizon. I had to use xposed framework to turn on the proper icons.
The steps I posted are all I did, other than being on hyperdrivre rom. Try setting to gsm as your preffered network?
Im sorry people have ignored this and claim its impossible, the tmobile guy in store actually got his manager to come use my phone after I got it working in front of him in store. The store manager told the employee I must be some super hacker and this isnt possible for normal people. All i did was imout the apn and the sim nothing crazy.

As far as I know the Verizon Note 2 works on AT&T and other carriers because in addition to being VZW device, it is also a world phone, meaning it has a GSM radio in addition to the CDMA VZW radio.
The AT&T Note 2 is a world phone by default due to AT&T being GSM so it only needs that one radio.
I do not think the AT&T version has the required CDMA radio in it to access VZW service.
I will do some checking and post back in a few.
**EDIT**
I checked the AT&T forum for the Note 2 and can not find any mention of a CDMA radio or anyone successfully using an AT&T Note 2 on Verizon.
**EDIT 2**
Verizon also gets to "approve" any device they let on their 3G CDMA network, so without some fancy hacking that we are not allowed to talk about on XDA.... you probably could not even activate the phone on Verizon.
^I believe you are correct...I was thinking the other way around not att on verizon.
i looked around the forum and i didnt seen to find an answer. and i dont know if this can be done. at least iam beeing honest. but is it possible to converte a SPRINT galaxy note 2 to verizon NOTE 2? for examble taking a verizon note 2 stock tar file and with odin flash it to a sprint note 2? i know on sprint phones you can flasha boot mmobile tar for example on the galaxy 2. epic touch. but since both phones are CDMA version and same model i dont know if this can be done or if trying this will this brick the phone or something? reason of doing this is use my existing sprint note 2 on verizon. please let me know thanks guys.

Once upon a time, We activated a Sprint moto q on the Verizon network after flashing but we had to get Verizon's Tech Support to add the phones' MEID to the Verizon network manually. Good luck getting that to work these days.
EDIT: I just remembered ,A Sprint Note 2 doesn't have the SIM card slot needed to work on the Verizon Network. So I don't think it is possible.

hi there doctor-cool. well see what iam trying to do is convert my sprint note into a verizon note. so that i can use the CDMA portion on straight talk since straight talk runs CDMA on verizon network. since i guess sprint note 2 cant be flash to straight talk. i did flashed the DEC from my straight talk into the sprint note 2 but it didnt work. so maybe converting from sprint phone to a verizon version maybe it should work. i tought the SIM card on verizon was only for LTE and not for CDMA.. now iam confused.

So I am currently in possession of a Verizon branded S6 edge+ which I am planning to use with TMo, as far as the XDA community I've seen this subsection as well as subsections for the different carries ex. TMo S6 edge+, Verizon S6 edge+ etc I was wondering what the difference was, also was wondering which ssection, my guess is the Verizon subsection as the phone's innards are specific to Verizon's version but I'm just asking before I get Into the rooting (rather be safe than sorry)
Also has any one else done this? Is there any discrepancy with the signal or anything else?
Any help would greatly be appreciated, thanks

You can't root the Verizon variant of the Edge +. It's impossible. KNOX will hard brick the phone if it detects the /system partition is modified in any way.

working absolutely fine.
Only issue is Verizon S6 edge+ doesn't not use Band 12 which TMobile uses.
So in other words, if you using DATA and phone call comes in, you will loose data, once phone call drop your data is back again.
and you can use 4G not LTE on tmobile network.
Thats my experience.

Right now I have AOJ2. The updates for me anyways, have to be done manually. I get both wifi and t-mobile 4G service. What t-mobile APN are you using? I have the fast.t-mobile.com one set.
Does the tmobile sim your using work in any other phones for tmobile or any other. You may need to reactivate the tmobile sim because all verizon phones come with the gsm part unlocked for voice from Verizon so If the sim is valid it should work on voice right away.
Check your advanced calling settings. Im on vzw so i use the advanced calling option for hd voice and hd video over 4g lte so you might have to disable that. Also is the sim card your using work in tmobile lte service or just 3g?
To date has anyone figured out a way to root the Verizon variant of the s6 edge+? I'm currently using on net10 with android 5.1.1

It's impossible. KNOX prevents root. Locked bootloader. Even if you enable "OEM Unlock" in developer options, it still bricks the device and tells you that you warranty is void and you need to buy a new phone.

I don't think it will work. T-Mobile uses GSM technology and Verizon uses CDMA.

I know this is old, but you sir have been lying under a rock for the past four years?
Wifi Calling
Can I get wifi calling to work with the Verizon brand s6 with an tmobile sim card?
