T-Mobile Note - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

http://www.phonedog.com/2012/04/24/...-itself-off-to-the-camera-android-4-0-in-tow/
I am debating returning my note and getting a tmobile one. I just wanted some advice first. Do you think the modem from the tmo version would help us i717 users on tmobile?

That's what im wondering. Did samsung just patch the radio or did they just add a new modem to support the band. I have no idea how these things work, but im hoping its a radio fix that we can just steal.

this will equal cross compatible roms most likely... like the skyrocket and tmobile galaxy sII

Yeah probably. I'm wondering about the modem though

The best thing about this is that maybe they will release the source with the phone so we can have some 4.0 modded goodness.

Question/suggestion for you T-Mobile users. Friend of mine used the radio modems from our note on his skyrocket and said it improved his data speeds. So I suggest* that possibly you guys can take the modems from T-Mobile galaxy s II and try them on the note.
* just a suggestion/idea not sure if anyone tried this yet.

Since tmo doesn't have lte does that mean itll use the exynos processor the international one has?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium

I don't have any proof, but I bet it will use the same S3 processor as the AT&T version.

No it will probably have a s3 or s4 chipset because of tmobiles 42mbs hspa+

I just noticed that it has ICS. Nice.

Anyone notice how it's on 4.0.3 official?!?!
Means were so much closer.

Excellent! Now to sell my AT&T Note on CL, pay the early termination fee and use the surplus to buy the T-mobile version of the Note

Sgs3

SG3 would be cool CharlieB but i, like most, bought the Note for the 5.3 screen and S-pen. The SG3 wont change that. Although im sure the specs will be awesome.

Sadly Scyke, i think you're right.
They're probably just keeping the AT&T version and just adding the T-Mobile logo rather than the AT&T one...

Pretty much. And removing the lte

If I was t-mobile, I would use a portion of that 4 billion from the failed merger and bribe Samsung to cram in a Tegra 3 or S4 in the T-mobile version of the Note

The Note 2 or the Note S will have a similar if not one of those processors.

I can't really answer your question. The one I have is over a year old. I just went from the Captivate to the SGSII over the weekend and they actually didn't give me a new Sim card. However, my download speeds a are twice what they were on my Captivate, obviously because of the 4G.

The old blue and white one is compatible with regular 3g and hspa+. The new orange and blue one you got is for LTE, but it will work in non LTE phones. I switched from the old one to the new one recently and have not experienced any increase in data speeds
The one I'm using says Cingular on it.
the 8 or 9th, or 9th & 10th,can't recall without looking tho, are 2 5.. so if right around there you see a 25 then you have a 4g sim card.

That is a 4G card, I didn't specify but by 4G I meant LTE.. notice the 25. Faux G, AKA HSPA+ doesn't need a new sim card, a 3G will work just the same.

I had an old "At&t 3G" Sim Card and couldn't connect to the HSPA+ "phone" apn, would only connect to "wap.cingular". After a good hour on the phone with At&t and the rep "provisioning" my plan for "4G" nothing worked. Went to the at&t store and got a new Sim Card and that allowed me to connect to the "phone" apn.
My old sim looked like the one Red5 attached
And my new one looks like the one the OP had in his xperia
To the OP i'd recommend blurring your phone number on your first pic...

It will work. This phone is like Samsung Galaxy S2 on Telus Mobility Canada, which works on T-Mobile USA AWS Band. Another option is to buy Rogers/AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note LTE and flash it with T-Mobile SG2 modem bin.
Rogers SG2 LTE works on T-Mobile USA once you flash the modem. Modem on these chips support LTE & HSPA. If LTE 1700 band is supported then 1700 band on HSPA is also supported. It is a single chip, so they can't enable 1700 LTE band and then disable 1700 HSPA+.
Is it possible to buy just the phone and have it shipped to the US?

The way unlocking works with this Canadian carrier is that you pay upfront and after 30 days (if you are new customer) they will send you the unlock code for $50.
I don't think they will ship it to US. Wait until Feb 14 2012 or Feb 17 2012(Bell sales person told me they will have it on Feb 17 at the store) to see if they allow shipping it to US when ordering online.
If AT&T don't sell phone outright, buy it from Rogers. I know Rogers will ship the phone to US/Canada if it is a Business line.
Galaxy international looks to have the radio

Seems i can get a connection to wind as well, tried my data sim from my huawei stick in the note, and connected to 4bars to wind..but in debug basic it showed gprs connection lol. So with some modem flashes, we should be able to enable it. I believe there is a thread with a bounty on it here as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400816&highlight=1700+wcdma here is the bounty thread, i d watch that.
Modem flash will only work with LTE Version of Samsung Galaxy Note as is the case with Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE Rogers (has 700/1700 LTE, if you do modem flash on this with T-Mobile USA, you will get HSPA+ 42 and no LTE support). Not on the international version of Samsung Galaxy Note. LTE Version of Samsung is PENTA Band.

Wait, so is the Canadian version different than the other LTE ones or could I get any one of them like the AT&T version which would probably be easier to pick up here in the US. Do we know that you can flash it or is it best to hold off and wait until someone actually tries it?

OK OK . I'm sure if I searched I'd find exact answer but from quick looking I did I see exynos international note and an lte s3 note.
It seems people are trying both to get T-Mobile 4g to work.
Would the exynos be 21mbps hspa
+ if succeded and the lte be T-Mobile 42mbps hspa+?
What are the chances would you guys think of this happening?
I read something about skyrocket doing the same you guys are attempting on lte note.
Sorry if this was easy to find but my gf has developed a hatred for me on phone cause all I do is read forums so I gotta chill it out tonight..

Once there is a kernel with clockwork mod, then we can flash a t989 modem to try.
My guess is by next Fri, we will know for sure.

Taking note back... What a shame...

I finally got the note... The phone is awesome... This is the phone of all phones.... The only thing i dislike is the data service AT&T offers my area... The service kills every thing about this phone is capable of doing.... AT&T doesn't have lte here... But they have the 4g... Which is not consistent enough to even call it 4g.... It picks up 4g and then switches to regular 3g... I won't pay AT&T an extra 20 bucks a month for this service... After half a day with this service, the note will be returned to AT&T and hope Verizon gets it very soon...
For the mean time galaxy SII on the Sprint network will do very well...

Don't take it back. Wait until after your first month and then go to the AT&T store and tell them you want to buy your contract out ($324). Now unlock your Note and use it on any carrier! This is what I am doing. Got my Note for half price ($149) and next month am buying out my contract and using the note on Straight Talk!
$324 + $149 = $473
Have fun with Verizon's 1.5Mbps "3G" network versus AT&T's 7-14Mbps FauxG network.
My company-use Vivid regularly sees 5-7Mbps in my town. My buddy's work Droid RAZR MAXX? 1.3-1.7Mbps.
Have fun with Straight Talk, too. 3.2Mbps max download and pray to all the Gods in the universe that you never have an issue that requires you to call in to customer care.

Sorry to hear. It is a great phone but it would suck if the network is not cutting it where you live. A poor network would take away a lot of the GNote's potential in my view. Hope you get it on another network in the future.

But doesn't straight talk still use ATT lines? Or are you saying the cost is low enough to endure the poor ATT network where he lives?
@mred, not to get off topic but what font is that and where can I get it?

I'm retarded never bothered to look at stock fonts.
Hey the Note is awesome. Wireless networks fast or slow are amazing, considering what you can do on them. Remember the Zach Morris bricks we use to carry? Besides at&t has 40 or so million smartphone users and over 100 million total data users. It's amazing that the network is as reliable as it is. Kindle, Nooks, PlayStation Vitas, UPS, FedEx ATMs Vending machines you name it the **** doesn't happen by magic.

at&t is not blocking the 1700 radio frequency, they don't use it, Tmobile wanted to use a different frequency than everybody else , go figure that one out!

Anywho, GB is giving me more stable data connections. I'm waiting on a ICS radio that is stable enough before using ICS as my daily driver.

Why don't you just flash the UCLA modem? On every 4.0.3 ROM I've been on I'd always flash it because the ICS one is terrible for me.

I would love to know why that is too. After the iPhone made its way to Verizon, I thought at&t would have been in a really tough spot.
I stick with att because I have multiple phones and love the ease of switching between them with just a Sim card (GSM) . Also I like having the option of using unlocked international phones that ATT does not offer.
att sucks, but so does verizon

i work for best buy mobile and i see more and more people sign up for at & t they have a pretty good reach in rural areas

AT&T is great when you're in an area that doesn't offer LTE. Their HSPA+ puts Verizons 3G to shame. Only reason I don't have T-Mobile is because I didn't get great reception at home. Swapping phones at will is nice as well.
I am using my note on tmobile and I'm getting great speeds on it. Throughout he day I usually get 6-10mbs download speeds. Sometimes I peak at 12mbs. The upload isn't great. I usually got 1-3mbs on my t989 but only around 100-500kb on the note. No biggie. Still fast for me. Only problem is it hangs occasionally and I have to toggle it on and off to get it working. I'm looking for a workaround for that.
I'm just about ready to give up myself tossing this bad boy up on eBay

I'm going to wait it out myself. I ended up ordering a straightalk att sim and contacted T-Mobile for a seasonal hold on my account. If the T-Mobile note is true or if someone finds a fix, ill just have to wait till that or gs3.

no one loves at&t, who are you kidding. anyone with any type of rational would go to verizon. the cheap folks, us, go for the lower tiered tmobile and sprint.

I enjoy ATT and the Note as well. Love is a strong word. These threads are humorous.

I wonder if they're using a new modem for 1700 band or if its just a new radio and if that will help the early note adapters.

What's straight talk best deal? I'm not on contract so I could leave whenever I just don't wanna change my number again and I'd have to wait like 3 weeks till my credit runs out

Too many people b!##h about AT&T. Yet theyre the second biggest carrier in the US. I for one love AT&T Ever since I switched from T-mo. No complains here.
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
I was with att I don't like them I just like big screen phones and this phone is a beast that can't be used to its full on tmobile

Uses att towers; tolerable till the radio fix.

Why 2 Galaxy Note Forums?

i just got my Galaxy Note and i wanna put a custom rom on it, and XDA has 2 Galaxt Note Forums, why? and sorry for my noobness.
Questions go in the question section.
And to answer your question.
One is the international note.
One is the att i717 note.
Thy have completly differrnt hardware.
No the roms and mods are not compatible with eachother
And the I717 covers more than just AT&T...
It's all north American carriers that offer the device, with a designation later for the carrier.
Example, the Canadian carrier Rogers, is called I717-R
But the hardware is the same on all I717 models.
The international has a completely different cpu and cell antenna.
The north American version is literally an overgrown sgs2 skyrocket
Just to add....
AT&T Note​

Aren't you glad you asked ?
Do your research thoroughly before doing anything .IMHO
Thanks for your replies.
I thought he was asking about this...2 development forums.

If note forum heading can be more specific about carrier names like
At&T, Rogers , Bell, Telus Galaxy Note LTE i717
Can be much easier and clear for new customers.
Saving themselves from soft bricking their device by mistaking it with International Note Roms.

i hate the fact this forum is labled as "ATT NOTE"
the i717 was out in canada before it hit att, and there are 4 varients of the i717,
who can tell the people that make forum sections are AMERICAN !
and the 2 dev thread would be good on a high flowing development section forum section such as the gnex. but in our section is completely useless. nothing more then that either.

the only similaritys these phones have are the size of the screen, and the same shape.
inners are different, glass is different, battery and battery door are different ect...

Yes North American galaxy note or galaxy note lte or even branded by its processor would be accurate but I figure the I717 part directs everyone in the proper place. I vote for Galaxy note I717 *

well i can totally agree with having diff development forums
but most stuff in the general forum can apply to ATT, as well definately the international accessories forum, where just about ALL accessories will work on both, and the app thread, not sure what app only works on the international that doesnt work on the ATT one
i commonly go thru the international general, help, and accesoories forums, but a LOT of that stuff still applies to our ATT note

Is the glass half empty ? or half full ?
I'm glad we have both...otherwise....we'd be apple'ish with "no" sections except.....
(how to jailbreak your fruit basket).....(grin)
(Sent from an American, with an American version Galaxy Note SGH-I717) I'm good with it......g
Another vote for Galaxy Note i717. It is what all the domestic Notes have in common. i717 vs N7000!
