I don't get why people buy the Sprint Note 3 for international use. Why not just get the international version of the Note 3?

Because they don't read and they are cheap.... Sprint one is much cheaper on eBay

Steps to get back 100% to sprint.

Flash MJ4 or most current tar

when phone comes up dial ##72786#

congrats youre back on sprint

(also use this method if you need to start the unlocking process over again it completely undoes everything)

Can I go back to sprint by just doing a flash recovery through twrp? And would it also work if you did a backup after it is unlocked for tmobile. That way everytime you want to switch carriers, you can just do a restore thorough twrp to switch back and forth. Hope this is not too confusing, seems like this trick might work.. Well seems like a good idea

##scrtn# resets network data settings and phone will reboot and do hfa it wont change any rom settings or userdata. recovery through twrp or the like wont do this.

If you use a lot of data 20 to 30 gigs they are a LOT cheaper..
I just used mine in the UK no problem..

What does the amount of data you use make the phone cheaper?

Sorry maybe I missed the point, if you are just buying a phone and not the contract then I would get the international one. I almost did but in the end the $199 BB price sucked me in, I have 5 lines and I'm the only one who uses the upgrades so I don't have to worry too much about getting the wrong phone lol..
The sprint n3 worked great for me overseas though so I don't see why it would not be good here on gsm other than no lte.

Ah ok. What I was trying to say is, people who don't live in the US but the Sprint Note 3 and get sad when it won't work overseas.... Why not just buy the international version... But I realize why.... The Sprint note 3 is cheaper than international and I guess people don't understand it won't work without having a Sprint account and asking Sprint to unlock the sim for international use.

 

[nipzthegreat]

will it revert if i switch roms?

Exactly the vzw one is unlocked but fcc mandated that when they last divvied up some spectrum to vzw .. Sprint doesn't have to yet so it only has to unlock the phone if they want to. People buy blocked esn ie... Stolen or phones people haven't paid bills on because they are useless on sprint so they have to sell cheap
