It's been two years already. Most people are enjoying CM12 on their gear s and others are still looking for root on the att version. Anyone working on this?

I very much doubt it since the one that is able to be rooted only has one developer. Unless some new dev faces show up in here.

You could always do what I did and sell the At&t version to buy the Tmobile version. Then just buy the sim unlock code on ebay for a few bucks, pop in your At&t sim. Wash, rinse, repeat...

Yeah, I should just go ahead and do that. I'm playing with the k9 smart watch, full android right now. Nice watch but small keyboard.

I've been looking at that K9 also. Like I need another smart watch. I already have 9 others, but the pursuit of perfection is fun. Does the K9 actually have true 1900mhz 3G in the US like another poster stated?
Att works just fine. Not sure about tmobile

Would you mind installing the speedtest.net app and running a test? If you are getting 3G speeds with AT&T then it should work the same with Tmobile. I'm just confused because the specs on the Gearbest site say that its frequency is: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz WCDMA 850/2100MHz. Which would mean that it gets the pokey slow 2G edge speeds in the US. As far as I know the WCDMA needs to be 1900MHz for it to work with US 3G/4G networks.
Right now the watches are on the way to Maryland. I dropshipped them from everbuying to a customer on ebay. The customer said they didn't work so I had them shipped to me and it turned out their tmobile Sims weren't activated. I used my att Sim from my gears and it said 3g. I don't know about speed but I do have a picture of it showing 3g. When the customer gets them I'll have them do speed test and I'll report on here.

What the watches actually look like. I'll post the 3g pic when the customer sends it back to me. Think I accidently deleted it.

So if I'm reading your chart correctly, the international version is not capable of working with any kind of 4g. ? I'm hoping this is the case as I bought one and in order for it to work on my companies plan it needs to be a 3g phone only

Yes. Correct.
There is an upgraded version of this phone, with Double the ram and 4G, but that is the I9305.

Perfect thanks. I have a company issued at&t blackberry curve 3g that I removed the Sim out of and use in my captivate. tried to upgrade that to the infuse long while back but found out it would not work because it was 4g .Long story short, my company would not update my plan to 4g to allow the infuse to work as my company doesn't authorize the use of Android devices. Did some research on international versions and figure I would try one more time. Hope it works out I have a 500 dollar paperweight again that I gave to try and sell and will be back to being stuck with my captivate. Not that that's a bad thing.

not like many carriers have passed 21mbps , or people really need more than that. they data plans are capped
This is why they haven't released jellybean yet

I have been looking for a gear s for a little while. And since in have the extra cash I'd like to get one. But I'm a little confused. I have seen the international unlocked ones. And I have seen the T-Mobile unlocked ones also. I am looking to add it to my Verizon service so I'd be getting a Sim card from Verizon to put in it. But which one would work? If someone can fill me in I'd greatly appreciate it.

In your case you need to bite the bullet and get the verizon gs if you are going to put it on your verizon plan. The gs have different cell bands.....international/gsm (att/tmobile)/cdma (verizon/sprint). You cannot put a international/gsm gs on a cdma network. Cdma networks are very limited not like gsm where you can unlock...etc..to switch to another gsm carrier with the same cell band.
Thanks dude. Sucks but I guess I'm gonna do it.

But I can goto sprint and buy one if it is cheaper.
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Free mobile app
Talk to Verizon first if you are going that route and asked just to make sure.. Verizon might not allow cross over from Sprint.
Buy a t mobile one for cheaper and pay the 15 month to T-mobile that's what I did I also have verizon just way cheaper and you also can have root this way

T-Mobile is totally the way to go....
I have been having issues lately with it. Like my test messages images wont send but if I use my Wife's Note 4 APN settings it will work then some days it stops working so I have to go back to my previous APN settings which is not that good.
Can you share yours?

Don't edit my post.
All AT&T data plans are LTE plans, it makes no difference whether the device is capable or not. @shaolin95, I'll post my APN details when I get home from work.
Here's as promised the APNs from my C6806, first up AT&T LTE

When you flash cm12 based roms do you lose LTE
I have not had Stock Lollipop as a daily driver due to the bootloops that Xposed causes with the amount of apps that I have on my phone, and I've tried every custom Lollipop ROM made available here, never lost LTE.

I don't get bootloop with xposed never not once. Which version you use? But when I flash cm 12 I lose my lte icon. I think I have the speed still. I'll take screen shots. Do you use APN cm provides?
I had someone on here remote unlock my Xfinity s9+. I put in a different sim, enter the code and it says successfully unlocked. Is this the only type of unlock it needs?
Someone asked me if it's network unlocked or sim unlocked. I'm noticing it's all listing Xfinity under all the carrier info, such as, the notification bar and under mobile settings. I am using the phone with straight talk.
Both the Verizon compatible and TMobile compatible sims work. But service cuts out often and kind of sucks.
Can the carrier re-lock it if it goes unpaid? Any info would be great. Also is there a way to remove the Xfinity boot screen?
Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Without root you're stuck with the boot screen for whatever carrier firmware you have installed..
Surprised the Verizon sim is giving you issues since that's who Xfinity uses for their network.
Are you really saving that much using Straight Talk over Xfinity? I mean I pay $45 for unlimited.
Both are giving me issues. Now today I'm not able to recieve calls. When I did recieve a call, I could hear her, but not vice versa. I don't believe there is a way to root this particular model?

Flash the Unlocked stock rom, that way it has the correct CSC (TFN) for TracFone NVNOs and it will say Verizon for the carrier.
I'm a little confused about wifi calling. I'm on US99830B using a Straight talk sim. I found out they offer wifi calling now. I just need a new sim from them. But, does it work with the version of Pie that I'm on? I thought I read that it didn't but I see others saying it does.

Straight Talk what? Straight Talk AT&T, Straight Talk Verizon, Straight Talk T-mobile, Straight Talk Sprint?
You can't just say Straight Talk. Straight Talk uses underlying carriers and many options depend on those carriers. For instance, since T-mobile allows Wi-Fi calling on US998 (which is NOT a T-mobile branded phone), any Straight Talk T-mobile account would probably also have Wi-Fi calling.
But since AT&T does NOT allow Wi-Fi calling on non-AT&T branded phones, then neither will Straight Talk AT&T.
So, you need to find out what particular carrier your Straight Talk SIM card is using, if you don't already know. There are codes and colors that will tell you that. Straight Talk will tell you if you ask hard enough. They like to pretend they are this standalone company, but they are just re-selling the 4 major carrier services but with lower prioritization and adding lag.
I used to have Straight Talk AT&T and eventually dumped them to go to what is now AT&T Prepaid. I was already using AT&T carrier services and the part that kept screwing up was Straight Talk's fault. So, I cut out the middleman.
You're right, I forgot to mention that. It's ATT

Don't think so, since it's not an AT&T branded phone. (For some reasons iPhones or at least some iPhones seem to be an exception.)
But check this link. It's for all Tracfone companies.
Good luck.

The link tells me exactly what I said. I would need a new sim card. But, my question was is wifi calling even working on US99830B?

Yeah, T-Mobile allows it. Not sure AT&T does. I know it doesn't on AT&T Prepaid on US998.
