From what I hear the phone is restricted to what kind of sims it will read and needs to be unlocked so that I can use it in europe. Is there any way I can do that by myself following some instructions or do I have to take it somewhere?
Please help

You need to unlock the phone, not the sim. Call T mobile and ask for an ublock code.

Hi guys I have one question that maybe was already asked here,so I am sorry if I am asking stupid questions.. Anyway, I want to give my galaxy s to my brother but we are not using the same network, and my phone is locked to my network. So how safe is phone unlocking ? what is the procedure for unlocking the phone and is it shortening phones' life? Also,my brother will be using it in another country...Thanks in advance!

I've never had a problem unlocking a phone.
Just buy an unlock code online. Check eBay first.
After you have the unlock code, give the phone to your brother and when. He inserts his SIM card, he will be asked for an unlock code. Once he enters it, he can use the phone...

Interesting, I thought it was much more complicated than that.. I am in Serbia now using Vip mobile, my brother will use it on Vodaphone Malta, you think that there would be no problems if I buy code from uk ebay? Is it than unlocked for every other network in the Europe? Thanks

Just make sure that your brother's network is compatible. (AKA he uses a SIM card and that the network specs are compatible) and you should be fine...

Ok,but how should I know if they are compatible? What should I check first?

Try typing your question in the thread, not as the thread topic...
If I was to order s att lte sim card and when they ask for a imei no. If I was to give them one from a regular att prepaid non smartphone could they tell that the phone wasnt a smartphone and if I could get by that if I got the prepaid $50 unlimited everything monthly you think that I could take that prepaid sim card and put it in a smartphone and get unlimited Lte data.Does anyone think this could possibly work. Thanks

You should've gotten the T-Mobile version if you wanted to use it on T-Mobile...
Yeah you should be able to use I it on t-mobile not sure if lte will work though

You'll need to put Tmobile APN settings to connect to Internet and send/receive MMS. I believe you CAN also enable LTE band 4 so you can connect to Tmobile LTE. See the service menu thread on how to do that.

The best root I've used is Kingo Android Root HERE. Doesn't even wipe the phone.
Hi
I have an american att note 3 that I would like to use in europe with another sim card.
Is putting another rom on it will be enough ?
Thanks

It'll work fine providing you've sim unlocked and/or region unlocked it, you won't get LTE either usually just H+
