Enable AWS on AT&T Note 3 for T-Mobile Service

[PowerMan572]

I searched the form and haven't found anything regarding this. I'm a bit shocked since you can do this with the S3 and S4.

Do we know yet if and when we'll be able to enable AWS bands on the AT&T Note 3 so all variances of 3G, 4G, and LTE would be used if you were to insert a T-Mobile sim card?

If I unlock the AT&T Note 3 and insert a T-Mobile sim card, I would only get LTE and "4G" where they have refarmed their network, correct? Everywhere else would be the Edge network? This is what I'm trying to avoid, thus asking about the AWS.


Thanks!

Good question. Maybe you can ask the dev over in the S4 forums about it and make sure to mention that you have obtained root access. His method might work the same but doesn't hurt to ask.

I've been looking for an answer to this as well since AT&T devices run cheaper than T-Mobile devices. I've used an AT&T Note 2 on T-Mobile with that method (the method was discovered on that device) and am currently using an AT&T S4 with my T-Mobile $30 plan with no issues.

so does anyone know a method to enable the AWS bands on AT&T note 3. This it the only post about it

So far doesn't look like it :crying:

Stinks too because I just bought the Note 3 for T-Mobile off of eBay for full price! and selling my S4. Will probably still have to pitch in $300 or more.

I was really hoping to find something, because I know of a loop hole in AT&T's system that allows me to get any phone at the discounted price, and then I cancel the next day without getting a early termination fee. This is how I've gotten my last 3 phones without having to pay full price. Now that I'm with T-Mobile, I will only be able to do this if I can get the phone from AT&T and then unlock T-Mobile's frequency band(s)

We need someone to make a QPST backup from a T-Mobile model and zero out the IMEI in the QCN file (or put the AT&T device's IMEI into it). Then restore that backup onto an AT&T Note 3.

Has anyone asked anybody in the T-mobile note 3 forum?

 

[Product F(RED)]

I just asked on another forum. Waiting to hear back. Still need someone who's feeling lucky to flash it though.

stop it already.....that is for the note 2!

 

[Product F(RED)]

I just went from my AT&T S4 to a T-Mobile Note 3. If someone can tell me how to remove my IMEI/any other identifying information from the QCN file that I can make, I'll post it here for people to try.

I think people will brick if they use that file. Can anyone confirm this? Phone to expensive to break.

ESN doesn't need to match. But stop trying to flash a Note 2's modem NVRAM backup onto a Note 3. You guys are asking for a brick.

Like I said, I can provide you guys with the QCN file if someone can tell me how to get my IMEI out of it (so my IMEI number isn't written to your phones).

READ: I CURRENTLY HAVE AND AM USING A T-MOBILE NOTE 3.
