Hey
Go to the AT&T specific forum

Downgrade to MJ1

Hello everyone.
I bought n9005 from UK and it has SIM lock or region lock
It has 4.3 ROM
Baseband MJ4
build MJ6
I was trying to use Chainfire's app to unlock region but it doesnt work.
It's said that the app works on Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 (MI7, MJ1, MJ3 firmwares).
Here's the question.
What am I supposed to do in this situation?
Downgrade it to MI7/ MJ1/ MJ3 or upgrade to use this method http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-note-3-how-unlock-sim-free-1442071
On this ROM this code "*#197328640#" doesnt work.
Thanks in advance for help.

Almost certainly it has SIMlock or is blacklisted - check the IMEI with *#06# and if it does not match the one from under battery then you can most likely sell it for parts, if the IMEI is OK I think the safest way is to buy an unlock code.

What does mean that phone is blacklisted?
Software IMEI has 17 digits
Under the battery there is 15 digits.
The only difference is that there is no "/01" at the end.

What is your Note 3 variant? International or branded? What is your CSC? ...
Use Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app to get all detailed info of your device.

Hi, n7505 is Note 3 Neo that support LTE, not Note 3.
For Note 3 Neo, you may need to ask the question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-neo
What is your CSC code? Germany is a country, not CSC code.

please help me

Well, it's both. It's for the international model (n9005) but it is for Thailand Region - with Asian firmware you need to be careful as a number of them have different partitions to rest of the world and they can cause problems.
Unless you wish to get into the nuts and bolts of ROM updates, best to stick with the same region your phone currently is set to - there's an app called Phone INFO Samsung which can give you all the details about your set up.
