[Q] Sprint Note 3 SM-900P

I've tried searching this question with no answer to avail.
I've seen people flashing roms from this Note 3 forums...
Does it matter if you have a sprint note 3?
Or rather, are the roms in these subforums universal to note 3s?
If not the forums for the Sprint Note 3 are pretty bare, there are so many roms in
thses subforums that I would love to use.
Thanks

Do not buy International if you use ATT LTE!

It was very difficult to find a concrete 'yes' or 'no' answer on the various threads here (a lot of discussion of bands and such which may be insanely intimidating to a new user / member). So, from what I've discovered from use and forums, and please correct me if I'm wrong, is that if you are use the 4G LTE network in America you will not be able to connect and use the enhanced speeds on the G900F model. Instead, you'll be stuck with 3G (if you're lucky) and 2G speeds.
Like I said, if anyone knows otherwise and if so can correct me in a very direct (and respectful) way so as to not intimidate new users (like my self) please do so. Especially since I'll be selling my G900F shortly. I truly do thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster that I kept my G900A version just in-case I found any problems with the international version.

Thank you gee2012 for feeling the need to be insulting instead of adding anything productive. Because I am a new user to the Android OS, mentioned that I scanned through the forums here and did not find a clear and concise answer to my very direct question, and found conflicting information through google searches as well as threads here I thought I could possibly help out other new users who may have the same question and feel a bit daunted by the sheer wealth of technical information here. I thought helping each other out, especially those brand new to the OS, was the XDA way. Not responding with a purely negative message to someone trying to be helpful.

I`am not insulting or dissing anyone mate but you only had to compare for instance the G900F supported LTE bands with the used ATT bands on Google and you`re question would have been answered.

No disrespect meant and I apologize for not being specific in my response to you. When I say conflicting information it was based on a google search for what I felt was a basic question, "Does the S5 G900F support the ATT 4G LTE network?" That query led to websites with conflicting information (a few said it did, a few said it didn't, and a few more said 'maybe'). When I came across more information via these forums and more google searching there was no clear and distinct answer that was readily found. What was found, like you referred to, was information on base bands. Because I was new not only to the Android OS but the complexities of phones outside of the walled garden that is iOS I investigated what a base band was. From here I continued my search into the ATT bands and compared them to the S5 G900F model to see if they were compatible. Once figuring out that they were not I had answered my own question. After realizing that there are others out there who either don't have the knowledge, access to, or time I thought I'd share my 'discovery' (and yes, I realize it was not really one) with others.
So yes, you were insulting when you said I "'layed [laid] back to wait for others to answer your question" as I didn't. You assumed from my simple and brief post that I had not taken the time to do any actual searching and was lazily waiting for someone to answer my question. It was an incorrect inference which led to a seemingly sarcastic response (and associated ) which while it won't dissuade me from posting or asking questions does not, IMO, represent the helpful community aspect of XDA.
With that said I see you are a Recognized Contributor, so thank you for the information you've contributed to others throughout XDA.
I am noting more than you are. Just trying to help others by reading and trying to figure out how things work.

[Q] Will ROMs from this forum work with the T-Mobile Note 3/HLTE?

I've seen a couple other threads, but I don't think any of them really definitively answered the question...will the ROMs from this thread (Galaxy Note 3) work with the T-Mobile version of the phone (T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3)?
The threads seem to have different ROMs, but they all list "HLTE," which is the name for my phone...even though it's T-Mobile. Thanks in advance for the replies!

[Q] another s5 from vzw to att thread

joined those not happy with vzw, especially since move to mass. I have s5 I want to use with att, but with additional concern I have yet to find answered in my research.
because vzw 4g lte phones are not carrier locked--so vzw says, I gather there should be little or no problem with an att sim in the vsw s5. research confirms many with no problem after the transfer. however, and this is the reason for the thread, what happens when no 4g lte signal from att?
please excuse my ignorance if common sense should reveal that answer, but I am so angry with vzw right now I can't see straight. the ignorance is the s5 capability regarding signal drop to non-4g lte with vzw purchased phone and att network.
why? I started service with att, another phone, to see how the signal is in this area, prior to the transition, and I rarely have lte and often with hspa, not hspa+.
not impressed with the cellular service just outside of boston yet both vzw and att claim strong coverage. go figure. anyway, I hope someone can help me understand what the s5 can do versus what the carriers have done to them. recommendations or whatever, please fire away.
thanks.
nothing?
20 views and nothing?
maybe this will help if unclear: rarely do I have lte on the screen. sometimes I have 4g, not often. so, is it possible a 4g lte phone can drop to 3g? if so, does the cdma/gsm difference come back into play?
it would be nice to see from someone with vzw to att experience.
thanks.

The lack of replies might be because your questions have been asked and answered many times. There are more than 20 existing threads on this subject that answer your questions. Why not read the wealth of information in those threads first? More than likely that would answer all of your questions. And if not, then your remaining questions would be better informed.
In short, a Verizon phone can be used on ATT but it will always be a poor fit that won't work well in many circumstances. You can find the particulars discussed at length in existing threads.

I know this is not the first effort at xda-dev as my subject indicates, but I have yet to find the particulars once a transferred phone is in a non-4g environment. did I miss it? if it is here, yes.
I get the sensitivity some have for repeat entries, but it is a forum for sharing information and that often evolves. It is not always practical or the information uptodate or even accurate or whatever to think it unreasonable to have another instance surface. okay, I could bump one and see where it goes; some will cry about the thread is old. doesn't it make sense to revisit just in case new information or whatever?
with that said, I have not read that is it a poor fit in Many circumstances..still looking. Thank you.
moderator, please close the thread; no longer attending.

[Q] Is it possible to dual-boot any custom ROMs on the Note 4?

Hi guys,
I have been looking around for options to dual-boot on my Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910F. I have not been able to find anything... All of the options stop at the Galaxy Note 3.
I have looked around on the Google Play Store and the apps that allow you to dual-boot are the apps that don't support the Galaxy Note 4 or Samsung devices at all.
Has anyone found anything, or can anyone find anything on this subject? I'm not bricking my device as a guinea pig to see if any existing method works. A lot of effort replacing my phone through insurance and putting everything back on.
Ask here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447534 this is for SG4 but also works on N3. Maybe it will work also on N4.

Thank you for your response quick response... Whilst this does answer most of the questions I do not think that there any any custom kernels for the Galaxy Note 4 that support the dual-boot function as of yet. I will have a quick look, followed by a more thorough look followed by a head-butting of my keyboard.
Thanks!
You're welcome ☺
