More like carrier versions have started receiving the update, whether the carrier versions are sim locked or unlocked has nothing to do with it.
And yes, US unlocked version still hasn't seen the update as of yet.

att now getting it. so add that to vzw then unlocked follows after tmo and sprint locked.
Forgive my ignorance I have been team Pixel for many years. I am using unlocked phone on Verizon. So I am waiting for unlocked update correct? The carrier is not relevant

Yes you will get when Samsung pushes the update for US unlocked model. Which carrier you use the US unlocked model is irrelevant.
Received on Snapdragon AT&T last night. Not seeing much of a difference though.

Thank you, it's so weird being on Pie when I was on Android 10 for so long with their development preview.

I am thinking about switching to US Cellular and getting the GS3 from them. Is the GS3 rooted yet? Is the bootloader locked or unlocker?

I would love to know this as well, as I am ditching VZW for this phone on USCC. Better signal, customer service where I live. I hope there is going to be support for this version of the phone.
Indeed, U.S. Cellular is king in Wisconsin!
I'm going to dump Sprint for an S3 on US Cellular. I too am interested whether I will be able to root.
I saw on TeamUSCellular.com that there may be a $100 billing credit starting on July 16th.
I have the USCC GS3 (SCH-R530) and rooted it via the method used for Sprint phones. Works great!

I have US Cellular and i have the GS3 phone. I also wanted to root my phone but didn't know which version to use. Did any of you got a custom rom installed on the US Cellular phone yet. I would imagine that you could use any rom for that i guess. Any experiances with that anyone ???
Hi Guys,
I was looking to purchase this phone off of ebay for my mom. We are on the t-mobile network but since VZN Note 2s are supposed to be unlocked I was looking at them too. However, I'm looking at them and there are quite a few Verizon Note 2s around/under $200 on Ebay. Is that where the phones value is now? I thought they would be around $250 at least. The one thing all of these have in common are that they are the Verizon models. The tmobile models are still pretty high. Is there something wrong with this model? Are these like those fake chinese clones? Or is the value just at that and I should buy it ASAP? I don't want to throw money down for some random clone
Vzw has the bootloaders locked down

Sorry, I'm still a bit of a noob, Does that just mean that custom software can't be installed on it? Like I said my mom is going to be using it so it will probably stay on stock.
Correct, no custom roms or root...depending on what version the phone comes with. What did you mean in your op when you said 'unlocked'?

aren't they unlocked to use sim cards since they are world phones? I know i have to change up the APN to get tmobile data but I don't need to put in random codes or anything right? I'm getting my info from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044449

Step one in that guide says 'ensure your phone has root' That is game over if the note 2 has the latest update. You can't root it.

What about Method 1? Or is that not possible at all cause its a custom rom?
Method 1:
See Adrynalyne's post below (Post #2) for a flashable mod (via custom recovery) that will enable the Add APN menu by removing Verizon's block. (For deodexed roms only)

That requires a deoxed rom, so the note would have to be bootloader unlocked and had a deoxed rom flashed.

Yes they are sim unlocked all you have to do is pop the sim in and add the correct apn's although you'll only get 3g and H+ (no 4G lte)

No offense to that guy but he's wrong bc I and many other put their Verizon note 2 on other carriers with no issues (see forums like note 2 on other carriers there plenty of them)
Now as far as the whole bootloader deal goes for custom rom and root depending on the android version but just to use it stock on another carrier it's sim card unlocked out of the box no root or custom rom needed
I had my Verizon note 2 with a locked bootloader android 4.3 on straight talk (att sim) for months no problems

I'm on the verizon network, and I have the N6P. My question is, what phones on the verizon network are truely rootable? Unlocked bootloader and all. I had the note 3, which is rootable, but you could not unlock the bl,and you could only run aosp roms. That didn't work for me. I'm just wondering, so when I change phones I know which phone to get. Thanks
I believe if I'm not mistaken, that most Verizon androids are locked on the bootloader. That doesn't mean that root isn't impossible, it just means that exploits would need to be used to create a root.

Noobie here: haven't been on android since 2012. Can't you ask the carrier to unlock the phone or is that a different thing?

It really depends on which phone you have, I'm almost 99% sure that the bootloaders for the Nexus 6p's can be unlocked without the carriers permission. Google is really great about that, but on the other hand the Verizon S5 has a locked bootloader.

We need carrier specific forums like the s8 and all previous Galaxies. I Wonder why no carrier specific forums for s9? It would for sure help with stuff being posted in the right places. I heard there was an ATT RC6, Where might one find that? Also need a U1 Unlocked section as well. At Least separate the exynos from the snapdragon since NOTHING is interchangeable. Two completely different phones.

I can see having forums for different model numbers, but from what I understand, all of the US carrier versions have the same model number, which means you can interchange the firmware. For instance, I'm running the ARC6 (TMobile) on my ATT device.
While I've had no luck on all of the other firmware out there, whether it's a Google Pay or Samsung Pay issue (I need both), it's nice to have options.

Yes, but you will be stuck on v2 bootloader. Once you go to ARC6, there is no going back.
