Possible way to push OTA on AT&T Note 8.0 abroad - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General

OK, this is mostly theory until someone tries... I am not going to attempt as I don't want my AT&T Note 8.0 to run 4.4.2
Download AT&T Care Module from AT&T support site. Download Tunnel Bear for PC and tweet to get an extra 1GB of data.
Connect to the US.
Connect the AT&T Note 8.0 and launch AT&T Care Module... Don't know what it will do as, I will not connect my device. Seems too automated and may force my device to load the update.
The programs are free to the public, and will take a few moments of your time to see for yourself if your device can be updated to 4.4.2 while abroad.

[Guide] How to switch from AT&T to T-Mobile and keep your SM-N900A fully functional

[Guide] How to switch from AT&T to T-Mobile and keep your SM-N900A fully functional
** DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A DEVELOPER. I DO THIS AS A HOBBY AND SHARE MY FINDINGS IN CASE SOMEONE ELSE FINDS THEM USEFUL. **
** THIS WORKED ON MY DEVICE BUT IT MAY NOT WORK ON YOURS. APPLY AT YOUR OWN RISK **​
Background
I always hated AT&T. When I got my first US cell phone in 1998, AT&T was a dominant force and Cingular was the underdog that provided better service. So for years I went out of my way to keep it Cingular through all of my relocations and phone number changes. Then AT&T bought Cingular and I was forced to become an AT&T subscriber. Then the iphone came along on the AT&T network, with the unlimited internet plan, which sealed my fate with this carrier for years.
At some point AT&T stopped offering the unlimited plan and I was one of the lucky ones who had their iphone plans grandfathered in. That prevented me for a long time from switching, but it became increasingly clear that AT&T has no intention of letting me use my plan as intended. All the signs were there: from threatening text messages every time I tried to tether my phone, to insulting slow-downs of data transfer after 2-5G of usage. At some point one gets tired of feeling like a criminal who is constantly trying to trick the carrier to squeeze a little more service here and there.
The last straw was when they made it very clear that they will not allow me to use a tablet as a phone, even if it has phone capabilities, even if I let go of my unlimited data plan! Their solution? buy a new data-plan only for your tablet. I am done with this $#(^. T-mobile had me at hello. All it takes is to notice the choice of music they play for you when you are on hold with the customer service: ATT: elevator music, T-mobile: Miley Cyrus.
So, here is what I did to make the switch and keep my note 3 issued by AT&T to use on T-mobile network.
Why?
If your phone is unlocked you can certainly pop the new sim card in and it will latch on to the T-mobile network. However you will be missing all the goodies that come with a T-mobile issued phone. Hence my journey to T-mobilize my SM-900A. A T-mobile Note 3 has an unlocked bootloader. I cannot have that transferred to an AT&T phone. But there are other good things that can be ported over. For example T-mobile's WiFi calling is implemented at the OS level and you cannot just copy over an APK to make it work. So if you follow this guide you will be able to turn your phone on and boot it up to (almost) exactly what a SM-N900T looks and behaves like.
Requirements:
1- Your phone should be on Jelly bean 4.3. Mine was on N900AUCUBNB4 but lower versions will work too. I have no intention of upgrading my phone to Kitkat anytime soon because I simply do not see the advantage. However, an experienced developer should be able to modify this process for Kitkat.
2- Your phone should be rooted.
3- You will need about 5G of empty space to install the T-mobile ROM.
4- Read the instructions below once before you start anything. If any word or phrase does not make sense to you STOP, google, ask questions, make sure you understand it, then continue.
Instructions:
1- Always backup your important stuff before doing a thing like this to your phone.
2- Root your phone if it already isn't. Your options that won't trip knox are Kingo and Towelroot. I recommend the latter.
3- dwitherell has done a great job of preparing a Jelly Bean T-mobile Rom for porting to AT&T. Download TweakedN3v2.0.12614 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625946
4- This ROM is pre-rooted but contains a few things that should be removed or tweaked for our purpose. Unzip it somewhere.
5- Delete vrtheme directory and bootcolx.img and bootstock.img
6- Replace defaults\install.prop with the file attached below.
7- Replace META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script with the file attached below.
8- Re-zip the whole thing again and call it N3-Tmobile.zip (or whatever you want)
9- Copy that to your sdcard. It may also be a good idea to copy a file manager apk like "File Manager HD" on your sdcard as well so you can later install it when the T-mobile Rom is in place.
10- Install Note 3 AT&T Safestrap 3.71 for Jelly Bean on your phone. It can be found at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572978
11- Boot into Safestrap recovery and create a Rom slot. Call it T-mobile or whatever you like. Activate it.
12- From the Safestrap main menu, install the N3-Tmobile.zip that you created in step 8 into the T-mobile slot. Be careful not to mess up your Stock Rom slot. The installation may take 3 to 10 minutes. If it takes longer, reboot the phone, wipe this Rom slot and try again.
13- When it is done, go to Safestrap main menu -> wipe -> advanced wipe -> select ONLY Dalvic, data, and cache, and the hit the wipe button.
14- Turn off the phone. Take out your AT&T sim card out, DON'T put your T-Mobile sim card in yet. Turn the phone on and reboot to the T-mobile Rom. Don't enable Wifi in the initial setup.
15- Now your T-mobile Rom is up and running but you don't have internet or cellular connections.
16- In your /system/app directory rename the following to [file_name].apk.bac (this is where the second part of step 9 becomes useful):
FotaClient.apk
FWUpgrade.apk
LocalFOTA.apk
SPPPushClient_Dev.apk
SyncmlDM.apk
16- Turn your phone off, put the T-mobile sim in it, turn on and enjoy.
If you want to swap the sim card back to AT&T, all it takes is to reboot to your stock ROM. Everything will be still there as you left them.
does it work?
Screen shots
Here is how well it has worked for me so far. I'm in Sweden now and their free sms abroad and unlimited Internet has so far worked as promised (although at data rates close to 100kb/s only which is expected. In the first screenshot I'm turning wifi off and as you can see the phone registers on to the local carrier. In the next screenshot I turned wifi calling on which allowed me to call back to the US for free. There was a half second audio delay but the quality was very good. Finally I attached my home screen shot that shows the T mobile apps that you get after this installation.
So far everything has been working great in the US and in Europe for me but please post your experience here if this has worked for you too.
Just to make sure we are on the same page, you had an ATT N3 and did this guide to get the TMO network. Is your baseband and broadband tmobile? That is what I am looking at. The ATT N3 works but I want the TMO Broadband / modems. Can you take a pic on the broadband page please. Does this chicken stract make sence?

Yes, i have an att n3 and i want it to work on t mobile network. The only thing this method flashes onto your phone is a /system partition. In fact that is all that you can do with safestrap. In one of the steps I am instructing you to remove the baseband from the zip so when you are done your baseband is still ATT.
I'm not sure why you want to flash t mobile base band on your ATT phone. The ATT BB (at least the BNB4) is fully capable of handling t mobile 4G LTE and other data bands.
What do you mean by "a picture of the broadband page?"

Second screenshot didn't include a blackout on the I.P. Considering you did that in the first screenshot, just pointing out you might want to for the second one as well.
I don't have a Note 3, my dad does. I'm just browsing the forums for an unlock method for SIM for NC(2?) firmware. I like where this one is going. Dad doesn't want me testing sh^& on his phone though, so no luck there. Sorry, but if another tests and claims it works, I'll have all permission to experiment.

Thanks for pointing that out. The reason I did not mask the second ip address is that in the second picture the phone is on wifi and the ip address is an inside-the-house ip address. These addresses are typical in all internal networks and do not contain any identifying information.

Switched from AT&T to T-Mobile
I switched from AT&T to T-Mobile and wanted to use my 2 Galaxy Note 3's SM-N9000A on T-mobile with all the benefits of T-Mobiles service (e.g. Wi-Fi calling, etc.). Firstly I had to get my phones sim unlocked, and then to find a rom that would port over T-Mobiles rom SM-N900T. After searching diligently to find answers I came across this thread. Najoor helped me get the rom installed (over PM's) and I unlocked the phones (cellunlocker.net under $30), and I am happily an ex-AT&T customer. I like having control over my cell phone plan, which I believe T-Mobile provides. Thanks again Najoor!
The big question still remains: Why? Just to add wifi calling and t mobile app? The 3g bands are still not enabled so it's either 2G, 4G LTE, or 4G. Does this add native wifi tethering? But you can do that with towel root and xposed framework.
I like to keep my AT&T option open, switching between T Mobile(cheaper $45 for 5GB, no tax) and Go Phone(1GB, $45, but better coverage, no tax also), but I recently rooted to take advantage of the tethering which does not work natively on T-mobile since it's an AT&T phone. I can't imagine being on T-Mobile if the signal is so bad that I would need WiFi calling and the t mobile app works just fine on the AT&T Note 3.
Wait so even if I flash another modem I can't enable the 3G bands? I'm pretty sure I just did
Was looking for something like this.
So, the latest TMOBILE based ROM is only jellybean 4.3 ? Is there a kit kat version.

Look at how to enable the AWS band on the note 3 thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516224
I don't think it has been done. Are you getting 3g in some area? I'm in a good coverage area and only see 4g or 4g LTE. Haven't taken it outside the good coverage area yet but I'm expecting edge only after I leave the 4g area.
I'm having an issuse.
I did exactly what you said, installed safestrap sucessfully, made a rom slot, extracted tweaked whatever, deleted bootstock and bootcolx and vrtheme replaced the two files, installed Tweaked-whatever on that rom slot, deleted Cache, Dalvid Cache, and data and rebooted. It doesn't work. It just gives me a black screen!
What do I do? This doesn't make any sense
EDIT: Didn't realize this thread was dead! Oops!

Hello buddy. I would like to try this method to use wifi calling. Where did you get the mod?
It doesn't work.
Just go to Cricket. $60 a month prepaid unlimited talk, unlimited text, and 10GB of data. All on the AT&T network.

[Q] How long does until Verizon Update is available on Verizon Upgrade Assistant?

Hello, I have a Verizon Note 4, but I am living internationally and not connected to any Verizon network. I need to try and download the update with Verizon Upgrade Assistant or Kies because I can't do it from my phone. Every time I connect it to the Assistant it says the software is up to date. Does anybody know how long it takes to get uploaded to the servers? I am not sure if it is already uploaded and I just cant get it or they haven't made it available on the upgrade assistant yet. I think it is the latter. Anyone have experience and can shed some light? Does it usually take a few days to upload the new updates to the assistant. I NEED this update for my Gear VR to work. I would also take any advice on how to upgrade to the newest software through any means necessary. I would be so appreciative if somebody has an answer! Thanks

International Tab A with S Pen

Found someone selling the international version of the Galaxy Tab A with the S Pen, model is SM-P585 for $160 and got him down to $130, haven't looked at it yet so don't know if it's in a different language or not, and obviously no warranty. But looks like it's the LTE model, won't be using it. Said it came from Korea, looking at the specs between the US version and Korean version looks the same except the Korean version has 32 gigs of ram vs 16. Only thing that worries me are updates down the road and compatibility with the app store. Will certain apps not load if it sees it as an international version?
hard to say
i did exactly what you are contemplating.
The unit i received boots and works fine via wifi. It does not work on wireless (cellular) networks, even though it has valid SIM card installed. Which is why i'm here, since i am going to try to flash firmware of a different region that has compatible bandplans to where i am. I've researched all that info on the web, and have chosen a "most likely" candidate.
The firmware it arrived with seems to be Singapore and Vietnam based. I'm going to try to flash Malaysian firmware and see what happens.
FWIW, the device will not upgrade via the built in upgrade option (in settings). It returns an error. Current android V 5.0, but i know htere is valid 6.0 firmware available. (which is what i'm going to flash).
I have verified using "System info for android " app, that it sees a network, but is simply not connecting. the curious thing about the situation is, that although the tablet will not connect to the cellular network, it does show the onscreen icon for network strength (which is very strong, 4 or 5 bars). So the device is recognizing a signal, but will not connect. I have used sim cards from several carriers, and "scanned" networks" which gives a list of expected locally available networks, but the device will not connect to any of them.
If anyone reading this has any ideas, i'm happy to hear them.
Good to know thanks. I don't plan on using it for the cellular part just WiFi, don't want to spend money on a data plan. I did find several sites that had marshmallow but you had to use odin I believe. Also found this thread incase it helps you.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/help/sm-p585-flashing-firmware-variant-t3498225
I had the Tab A 8.0 with S Pen (SM-P355) the international version capable of making phone calls. I don't think it was ever sold in the US. I had no problems loading any apps from the Play store, including banking apps and others that were regional or required authentication, like Uber.
The last version I received (before cracking my screen) was 6.0, pushed via OTA update.

three verizon nougat questions

I am currently on 935U, Marshmallow 6.01 PL4 (phone is a verizon Edge s7), unrooted.
1) I have read that the samsung dialer is no longer on Nougat , nor is the Samsung caller id?
Can someone verify if this is true? From reading further, I am not sure if it is the aesthetics that have changed or the actual dialer. My favorite feature of the edge 7 is the suspected spam id and block that comes up as a call comes in and also, sthe small window that comes up at the top of the phone to answer a call when you are in another app. Can anyone who has taken verizon nougat tell me if these features are no longer available?
2) I have read that tethering is not available on nougat without tweaking. Is this the same as mobile hotspot? I currently use mobile hotspot for my tablet when I am traveling and wifi signal is poor. I connect to the mobile hotspot using bluetooth. Can someone verify whether or not this option is available on Verizon Nougat without tweaking?
3) Lastly, my phone has lagged up greatly lately, I am considering flashing back to verizon software and taking nougat. If I am unhappy, will I be able to go back to 935 Marshmallow (currently on PL4) or is reverting back to Marshmallow not a possibility.
thanks in advance!
I'm not sure if it's the dialer either, bit give hiya a trt. It's by whitepaper and blocks spam really well, plus you can submit numbers as well for blocking.

This has never been available on Verizon firmware. Not even on 6.0. Verizon ripped the feature out to force you to buy "Verizon Caller ID" instead.

"Mobile Hotspot" and "tethering" are the exact same thing. Most people who say "tethering" are referring to PDANet or whatever, because they're on grandfathered UDPs and refuse to switch to new plans. I have Wifi, Bluetooth and USB available as options for sharing my phone's LTE connection to a computer or tablet - I can even plug my phone into my router and have my router use it as the modem for my entire home network.
3) Lastly, my phone has lagged up greatly lately, I am considering flashing back to verizon software and taking nougat. If I am unhappy, will I be able to go back to 935 Marshmallow (currently on PL4) or is reverting back to Marshmallow not a possibility.
thanks in advance!

Generally, "lagging" is due to rogue apps and/or a corrupt cache. I would look at any apps that have suspicious permissions (why would a flashlight app need to access your contacts, for example) and dump them, and clear the cache.
As of right now, I'm running Verizon's 7.0 side by side with U 6.0.1 on two different Edges. 7.0 is beautiful and fast, but Verizon changes too much and removes too many features. If you only have one device, I would stick with the U FW and wait till next month for the U 7.0 update. My two cents.
@raduque Really appreciate the detailed answer!
You're welcome tmord1!

New unlocked AT&T tablet SM-T727A for grandparents abroad, to flash or not?

Hello, please give a little advise.
I bought an UNLOCKED used Samsung AT&T S5e (SM-T727A), and another UNLOCKED used Samsung Sprint TAB A (2019) (SM-T517P) from eBay for my grandparents abroad in Argentina; mainly for the SIM capability to use with Whatsapp with me, and their grandkids all over the world.
I have no experience with LTE tablets, but have rooted phones here and there since 2012 thanks to you guys.
I feel very hesitant to root, or install roms on these tablets, since I won't be able to be there for them if anything happens, other than remote assistant pre-programmed for them to hit one button, but even then... the struggle a lot with basic things, and only know Whatsapp.
I have put my SIM card from T-mobile on my Note 8 here in the US on both devices, but although the T-mobile LTE text appears on top, none of the tablets changed Startup intro, or installed T-mobile apps/Removed AT&T or Sprint apps. The Sprint tablet shows an annoying Sprint OMADM notification, and the AT&T tablet won't let me use the dialer.
Both tablets can use LTE from T-mobile fine with great speeds, but need to use alternate dialer to make calls.
Should I install custom ROMS on these to remove their carrier's bloatware? Am I definitely tripping KNOX on them? Will installing these rooms, or unlocking bootloaders mess up with future updates, and leave my grandparents stranded?
Please help; what should I do?
unlocked AT&T Galaxy 727a tablet
I am wondering if you ever got a response to your questions? I too have the same tablet and I want to root it to remove the AT&T software because I also use T-Mobile. I am going to keep searching here in the forums. I don't think I want to flash a rom though as I kind of like the Samsung feel right now. Plus I only had it 2 days so far.

I am still searching, this is my first LTE tablet, and I believe we ARE NOT meant to use ROMs for the WiFi variant on it (maybe wrong), so that leaves flashing lots of ROMS out... there maybe a few out there, but I doubt many DEVs have these devices available to work on.
Anyway, I decided against flashing roms for now; my only problem with the AT&T Tablet now is that the default Google dialer will not work unless it's with AT&T, so I have to use third party dialers now... no good.
I read somewhere that you can change something called the CSC of the tablet without rooting or flashing, to maybe get rid of the AT&T bloatware, and maybe T-mobile bloatware will let me use Google dialer??? I will try putting my T-mobile SIM today, and do a factory reset of the tablet with the T-mobile SIM in it. This has worked for me in the past with phones by the way, but never tried tablets before.
I may also try using Titanium Backup, and freeze some of these apps, but that will require rooting I believe, and I don't want to do that yet because I worry that unlocking the bootloader will leave that ugly "bootloader unlocked" message on every boot.
luck?

Have you had any luck, I also have this tablet.
I am with the same problem, I have a Galaxy Tab S5e LTE tablet (SM727A), which is unlocked, but it does not allow me to make normal calls (like a cell phone) due to the AT&T call launcher. does anyone know any way to make calls? I have the tablet outside the USA
This thread is a year and a half old without an answer, doesn't seem right, I have similar issue why no answer?
I am in the US, and I can't get calls to work with Samsung s5e SM-T727UZKAXAA Unlocked Tablet.
Ordered this tablet for my elderly mother with the idea it could basically becone a 10 inch phone for her since she has serious difficulty seeing even the largest phone displays.
I took out her Motorola One sim and inserted it into the new tablet. After all the software updates were complete, I have network connectivity, data (seems slow tbh), and can eveb send/receive texts, but it will not receive calls? This tablet has that functionality, so I'm trying to figure out what exactly I'm missing?
I am using T-Mobile, and am on the Magenta MAX plan for all 3 of my lines including this one that I tried. Any help at all appreciated, thank you.

Buy a global version like SM-T725 to use full feartures.
Unlock version give you Data connection, sms, but you need connect to Samsung phone to call.
