Can an international Galaxy Note 3 (model SM-N9005) work with Verizon?
From what heard.. I would have to get a replacement SIM card from VZW and use it on the SM-N9005's first boot
Cuz,
You will always have to get the sim from the providing service carrier unless you are willing to pay long distance charges!
You can get a Verizon sim for an ATT network, you may occasionally use a competitors tower but the service COMES FROM the sim!

I acquired a Sprint n900P Note 3 but I don't use Sprint. Can I get it unlocked to use on another carrier? I'm not seeing any services that offer Sprint Note 3 unlocking, is this possible or anyone have any suggestions?
it's the N900P
mistake - i originally wrote it's the N9005, it's the N900P

I have actually not seen Sprint Note 3 unlocks available Let alone Verizon Samsung Unlocking
Best move to either AT&T or T-mobile phones.
just curious, does the note 3 on sprint have a micro-sim?

yes, it does have a slot for micro-sim. but it does not require a sim card to be inserted to receive/make calls etc. If you put a different carrier's sim card, it displays invalid sim message.
RegionAway
I tried RegionAway on the Sprint Note 3 and it didn't work, can anyone confirm this? I reboot many times and nothing seems to work.
Not lucky for sprint note3 ....to be sad.....
These new att plans have me intrigued. I know I put a T-Mobile sim in my Verizon note 3 I get lte. Is it the same for att? If I put their sim in my Verizon note 3 do I get lte as well?
Thanks to anyone who knows 100%
I'm no expert but I'd say no. Since att is gsm. And Verizon is cdma

yes but slower than original gsm phone should had
Wow

I just had to chime in. I hate when people give this response. LOL
Most of the LTE phones on verizon are CDMA & GSM. I used an AT&T sim card in the Verizon Galaxy S4 and got HSPA+ speeds. got about 6 Mpbs up and 3.5 down.
NOTE: VERIZON PHONES DO HAVE SIM CARDS AND YOU CAN USE GSM SIM CARDS WITH THEM. THEY ARE CDMA & GSM.
NOW PLEASE PLEASE STOP GIVING ANSNWER LIKE ""I'm no expert but I'd say no. Since att is gsm. And Verizon is cdma """"""
I get 4g download speeds on my Verizon Galaxy note3 on tmobile. Has anyone With experience tried a Verizon note 3 with an att sim card?
Verizon 4G Phones are unlocked and SIM compatible with CDMA/GSM/LTE.
Most phones using Qualcomm chips will get HSPA+ and some will get LTE depending on the radio version. I've been able to get LTE on both the GS4 and G2 on AIO wireless
(ATT).
My 2 cents
Really ? youre gonna talk crap? He said would he get lte speed.. the answer is no. because atts lte bands arent the same as vzws. So chill it with the all caps. and not to mention your example of a s4 getting hspa+ speed (which is not LTE ) didnt validate what your answer to the OPs question anyway... There was no reason to bash what i said. seeing as how your post did nothing to help the OP at all. Neither of us knew 100% Need to learn a little respect. Cant we all just get along without it being a pissing contest??? Just trying to help here. Heres a link from some others that have already answered the question.

I think at&t uses a different frequency for 4g than tmobile. Google what frequency at&t uses for 4g and what 4g frequencies are supported on the Verizon Note 3.

I'm a straight talk user living in the USA. For me to continue using straight talk what phone do you recommend? Should I get the AT&T or T-Mobile version of the S5?
My S3 is an AT&T version.
Thanks.

T-mobile..has unlocked bootloader
What about HPSA+ and 4G/LTE on T-mobile?

Thanks. I had read some message traffic that says AT&T version would be able to fully use 4G/LTE networks while T-mobile is limited to HPSA+? Originally I thought those were two different names for the same thing (AT&T calls LTE, HPSA+) but apparently they are different. Doesn't LTE provide better speeds than HPSA+?
Also for my S3, I have a Straight Talk AT&T SIM. Do I need a different SIM for Straight Talk using the T-mobile version of the S5?

T-Mobile does provide LTE speeds as well but straight talk's T-Mobile is only 3G so your best bet is to get the T-Mobile S5 and unlock it and use straight talk's AT&T Sim card you currently have (given that it's a micro Sim card)

If i have a tmo s5 that i want to use with straight talks at&t sim do i need to buy the unlock code or can i just flash an international Rom?
And either way would i get full LTE?
Thanx

Hey everyone. I am new to the whole factory unlocked phone game.
Recently I acquired a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 that was factory unlocked from Amazon to use abroad, however, I would like to use for Sprint or Verizon here in the US. When I put in the SIM card, the device will not work. I am curious as to what needs to be done to get my SM-N910H to work? I thought unlocked meant usable on any carrier?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

First of all, Verizon and Sprint are CDMA carriers, thus they do not use SIM cards. Unlocked devices won't work on these carriers. Return the device and you need to purchase the device from Sprint or Verizon.
Unlocked means you will be able to use it on any GSM carrier (carriers that utilize SIM cards), not CDMA.
I am aware of that, however, that statement that Sprint or Verizon does not use Sim cards in incorrect. Sprint and Verizon use UICC Sim cards. I checked my buddies Sprint Galaxy Note 4 and it has a sim card in the sim card slot in the same slot as the GSM device.
T-MOBILE S7 Edge works on Verizon, ATT with unlocked Sim card! I also have LTE on All 3 Networks.
First question is how did you get your phone unlocked? I thought tmobile made you wait 45 days before they would unlock the phone

A lot of times if the phone is paid off, it'll unlock as long as it meets 1 requirement.
Sweet Verizon is super fast and coverage is virtually anywhere.

Does it have CDMA support?
I am able to make calls. I'm not sure because I use dialpad for all of my calls.

I said that I was going over seas for a trip. Then the device unlock app was activated.

Verizon uses a lte sim card for data only. There will not be(shouldnt be anyway) any call support because the 935t does not have cdma, unless verizon is using different bands on newer devices like tmobile(band 12 - 700a)
