Any Canadians know when Telus is getting the Note? I'm on T-Mobile USA and this supposedly having AWS bands.
Thanks

It does not have AWS bands. It is not a repackaged Hercules. It's a repackaged ATT SGH-i717, with the same bands. It will be the SGH-i717D.
Telus doesn't use AWS, they just happened to get a T-Mobile "leftover" once, with the SGS 2X.
As for when it'll be here, within 30 days since it has a "coming soon" page already.
that sucks! I was hoping it would have the 1700 on it. I really want to try the note, guess I'll wait for s3.

He was hoping to be able to use T-Mobile 3g. The Unlocked Note will only do 2G(edge) on T-Mobile.

the telus version will have 4 capacitive buttons, different cpu, lte, nfc *identical to the ATT version*
the n7000 is still the one you want if you can find one at a good price.

Up until the internal memory dies, anyway.
I9000T has it.

Does the problem affect other Galaxy?
If not, how come only Bell's Galaxy's were affected?

I found one on eBay Australia a day or two ago, finishing today and it's about A$350 at the moment, can go for under A$450 quite often. But if you don't want to get it off eBay, Telstra have it outright (the 850 version) for A$960 outright (not recommended) or you could find it (850/NextG version) online at places such as MobiCity (also Australian) for A$729 outright.
Hope that helps, that's all I know from living here in Australia
the new batches of SGS Bell i9000m seems to not have the internal SD problem
only the original batch from launch time.
if anyone needs help purchasing a brand new original I9000M from a Bell store, just let me know via PM
The canadian telus fascinate uses is compatible on att, the us fascinate isn't.
It may be a miracle. I was using the International Samsung Galaxy Note and was only receiving edge on T-Mobile. I learned why this was and hoped it would change. About three nights ago exactly I was trying to use my data which was edge which did not work at all. I was not sure why. Then the following night I was at a dinner party in Cougar Mountain Drive which is in the Bellevue area. All of a sudden I turned on my data and guess what I saw. A big H+ staring me back in the face. I was so overjoyed I could not even begin to explain. But alas, I could not longer see the H+ when I returned home in the Seattle Area. Is T-Mobile finally refarming? We can all hope can't we? What do you guys think?
Probably Tmo rolling out 4G in select areas.
You can always apply the Tmo radio to get 4G

that's only with the at&t version. I believe OP was referring to T-mobile expanding their network bands to the ones used by at&t

That's awesome advice....not. Are you trying to get him to brick his phone?
This is an N7000.
T-Mobile has been working on standing up the 1900 frequency, which is the same band AT&T uses, and the band included in all international phones. They have been using AWS which is the 1700 band. This is why all new-ish T-mobile phones are pentaband. You must have been in an area that they already converted over. It is supposed to be complete sometime in 2013.
I have a similar story. While visiting in Concord, CA. Downtown where the Old Spaghetti Factory is: I was able to get HSPA+ on my Infuse i997. Looking forward to the refarm taking place all over the usual spots.

Yes. That's my dream is to ruin other devices. Its already been successfully done with the AT&T Note. Do some research.

:| You didn't bother reading the rest of the thread did you? It can only be done on the ATT note because ATT was preparing for their merge wit T-mobile. "Do some research."
Its the same reason that the Skyfire can be flashed to t-mobile.
Post it on airportal.de because it is the only way to track it besides HowardForums.

It's okay to be ignorant but no need for remarks like that. International note and at&t are different.

I now understand its not those models. It was my fault for not realizing. People on this forum are so quick to pounce on someone's mistake. His comment wasn't necessary and neither was mine. Simple.

I understand that T-mobile has re-farmed 1900 MHz for 3G service in the Boston, MA area.
Is this service available to T-Mobile pre-paid PAYG customers? On the $3/day plan?
Is there any requirement for a GBA SIM? Or any newer SIM?
Are there any specialized APN settings?
Any specialized phone settings? "Force" WCDMA 1900 MHz only from the Service Menu?
I have an international un-locked Samsung Galaxy S II (I9100), and a 7 year old T-Mobile pre-paid SIM.
I have been able to use GSM data (2G: GPRS/EDGE) as recently as July, 2012.
My visits are brief so I use the $2/day plan but would like to be able to use 3G.
current reports,
no specific deals with TMO regarding network sharing,
i'd doubt AT&T will lend the networks without a fair price

Please help me. I have a motorola atrix 4g. Unlocked. Rooted. Running on t-mobile network. I have 3g contract but all i am getting is edge (which is fricking slow). I know it possible for you to be able to change atrix automatic custom network (which is at&t) to work with t-mobile. Youtube doesn't help cause all i see is bell, sprint and metro pcs. I know it something with the radio. But i need your help thanks.
Do you have any friends who have tmo that you can ask their apn settings? That's my suggestion.

This is true. Carrier radio frequencies do differ in the USA. Wifi is the only high speed you'll get in the USA if you are not on at&t using the at&t Atrix.

Im so angry. But hope something comes up
If you're not locked into a t-mobile contract I suggest going to straight talk, they have a SIM for AT&T version phones and that should get you 3g. Or go for h20 wireless which should get you full 4g speed.

Lol, despite its name Atrix 4G does not have 4G... You need a carrier working on one or two of 850/1900/2100 3g frequencies.

i'd still consider HSPA plus more 4g than Sprint's so called 4g and that wimax thing the original evo has
and I'd consider verizon's 3G more like 2g hahaha
Man im disappointed u should have never brought this phone cuz a friend said I can hack the Motorola custom radio which was at&t to T-Mobile. But he was wrong.

That entirely depends on where you are or what market you're in. T-Mo is in the process of moving all their HSPA+ service from the 1700MHZ band over to the 1900MHZ band in order to make way for its future LTE services. Most markets are still on 1700. If you're in one of those markets still, then the Int'l Note 2's HSPA+ will not work (because it does not support 1700MHZ HSPA+). On the other hand, if you're one of the lucky ones in a new 1900MHZ T-Mo service area, then you're all set to go!

Can't u wait a week for one from Tmo that'll work with all their hspa+ networks and future proof for lte with actual warranty for the same price? Heck you waited this long already what's another week for lte and warranty?
I'd wait personally. The T-Mobile one should have LTE too so you can take advantage of that once they start firing up those networks.
I just bought a galaxy note 4 SM-N910U
I'm trying to figure out if it supports LTE in Canada (Rogers)
I've read conflicting sites that say it can do LTE and some other sites that say it won't.
Whats the verdict on this?

4G and LTE are referred to the same thing.
