Hello, I am new to the xda forums and I thought I'd ask you knowledgeable folk about my dilemma. I currently live in Canada and am going to purchase an unlocked Galaxy Note 3 from Negri Electronics. I was about to buy the N9005, I presume that works on Bell's LTE service correct? Because I saw also on the site a Samsung N900W8 Galaxy Note 3 LTE 32GB (Bell) (Unlocked).. which confused me. Will the n9005 work on my LTE network or do I have to buy the second one? Thank you.
you need LTE on 1700MHz/AWS for Bell... N9005 does not this.
N900W8 is better if you want LTE

I don't know if this is the correct forum to post in or not; I'm just trying to get the maximum exposure possible so as to hopefully get the best response or attention:
I know that for the Note II, you could take a T-Mo or AT&T branded device, flash the N7105 (Int'l LTE Note II) firmware, and then flash the AT&T/Rogers/T-Mo specific modem.bin, and you'd essentially have an International LTE Note II working in North America. This is what I currently have.
So, what I want to know is, can this be done for the Note 3 as well? I imagine you'd want to use the T-Mo Note 3 for its unlocked bootloader. Supposedly it has been confirmed that the T-Mo and AT&T Note 3 are identical as far as hardware is concerned (despite conflicting advertisements).
Has anybody thought of this yet?
Hi, I am aware that Rogers' i337M (Galaxy S4) can be unlocked to work with Wind or Mobilicity, and unlocked Rogers Galaxy Note 3 can work with Wind or Mobilicity as well.
Now my question is, do they have same internal hardwares? e.g. CPU/GPS chip etc.
The reason for me to ask is, I need to decide whether to purchase the S4 or Note 3 from Wind. If the hardware is different, then I better buy Rogers version and unlock it, because Rogers or big 3 versions has larger community supports so I can get more custom ROMs 2 years down the road.
Thoughts?

I would first check to be 100% certain that the LTE bands are 100% compatible. Actually the 2G/3G bands too
Hello folks,
Will the Verizon Note 3 work in Doha, Qatar? Is it better to get an international plan or a local sim?
thanks!
Hello all,
I am new to XDA, so I apologize if this question has been answered before. I am coming from an iPhone 4s to (Hopefully) a Note 3; however I need to figure out what model to get. I have Metro PCS, so I would need an unlocked model. But my question is which should I buy to be able to use their 4G LTE towers / data speeds? I saw on another thread that one note 3 doesn't work with USA 4G LTE, so you can understand my concern.
TL;DR: I have metroPCS in california (USA) and want an unlocked Note 3, which model do I need to buy to use 4G LTE
You Need SM N9005 international variant & is fully unlocked.You can use LTE on that
