Hi everyone,
I had a Note 2 on the Three Network here in the UK. Fine no problems at all. Got the Note 3 (SM-N9005) and the data connection is dire. Only difference - apart from the phone model of course - is the Note 2 was on Jellybean.
Should I attempt to downgrade, will it make any difference?
Thanks in advance.

Attempting to Downgrade on a device that is not a W8 variant means you will trip your KNOX and fail to Downgrade at the end.
Don't bother.

Then try a different modem, software usually doesn't affect the baseband but the baseband firmware itself does.

So long as the region is fine, it doesn't affect Sim-Lock - I'd just hang tight and let KIES do it's thang man, safer that way
Too bad then. Since I'm in Asia and that firmware belongs to Poland.

I'm in the same boat mate. Got my Note 3 a few weeks ago and was surprised to find a different mdoel N9007. Don't care about the knox status and really want to get rid of all the carrier bloatware. I can see the HK version of stock Samsung rom but not sure if it is suitable for our devices.

if it's the same model then it should work. You should check against your PDA version when you type *#1234#, if it is N9007ZH download the HK version, if it is N9007DI download the Australian version.

Firmware is available on Sammobile but yes they are all carrier bloated.
For those of you still wondering, as long as you are on the 4.4.2 bootloader/modem, you can flash any aosp Rom and have no issues with mobile data or lte. The model number on your phone will change in the "about phone" section, bu if you can live with that, then no issues at all. I've just tried the Lollipop alpha build, and that worked fine, along with a bunch of other 4.4.4 AOSP roms and all ran smoothly.
Is there any difference between the models? Can I flash fw from 910C to 910H with out bricking anything?
I have 910H model & i flashed 910C sweet rom in my 910H without any problem. B4 u flash the 910C firmware do nandroid backup.

Do keep in mind that the modem must remain 910H

Thanks guys. I suppose now I can be a little more adventurous. Is there any hardware difference?
AFAIK, the difference is N910H doesn't have LTE
How do I do that? Or can you explain me what exactly do you mean? I have a N910H and I'd like to flash roms down the road (maybe if some AOSP comes out later) but I have noticed most roms so far are coming for the C version.

You can flash the f/w. I am using WanamLite for N910C on my N910H and it works fine. Of course 4G/LTE is not functioning.
The only last step to the conversion is establishing if the modem of N910C will work on N910H. Until now, we know that the modem hardware is the same on N910H and N910C. I haven't tried to flash the modem on my N910H because I really don't want to brick my 800$ device I bought last week. Down the road someone is bound to try it, then we can even enjoy 4G on our N910H variant if it works

Is the modem included with the roms? Like, if go to the dev section I see a lot of 'C' roms. Will I be able to flash all these roms without affecting the modem of my 'H' variant? or is it included with the custom rom?

I've flashed WanamLite and SweetRom (N910C) and both worked fine without affecting my modem. Make sure you change the network to WCDMA/GSM insted of LTE/WCDMA/GSM.

1) Is this going to be the case always? or are there roms that include the modem when flashing?

1- As far as I know, no, the modem stays untouched while flashing custom ROMs through CWM/TWRP. Maybe someone with more experience on the matter could confirm this.
2- Both are much better and have noticeably better battery life.

Hi guys, so I deccided to update my Kitkat to the new Lollipop. Biggest msitake this week. Its been 4 days that I've been tryign to fix this with no luck.
So I lost my LTE connection and I cannot get it back. I flashed so many modems and bootloaders with no luck. Some will give me 3g but never LTE even though the modem says LTE on it. Random reboots. Can someone please help!?
