Hi,
I am thinking of buying S3. I currenly have S2 (Black I9100 International Version) and I am currenly on Unlimited Data Plan (Non Smartphone). I am thinking of having the same data plan on my S3 I9300 International Version. Which version of S3 is not flagged by AT&T ? in case I9100 it was the white I9100 that was flagged as a blackberry device.
Thanks,
Satish.
It would be nice if someone could reply.
Thanks,
Satish.

I have a blue German vodofone i9300 I got from a third party seller at Amazon. Using unlimited $10 internet from ATT for 2 months now. No problems.
Any i9300 will work on the current plan you use for your i9100.

I am interested in the International Model (more development and better specs).
I know what you're trying to do, I did the same thing with my i9100. Got the unlimited dumb phone plan. It worked for a few months, but then they somehow detected I had the Galaxy S II, so they throttled me so bad I thought it was worse than GPRS speeds.

Sorry, but they don't throttle MediaNet plans.

were you using a lot of data when you were on MediaNet ie. unlimited plan ? I mean I heard some people using 10-30 GB.
I've been using my i9100 for a year now averaging about 12gb of data per month getting between 6-8mbps. Never been throttled.
Edit, just checked it I averaged 14gb the past 10 months, yet to be throttled.

Look at the thread in my signature. There has been an exhaustive discussion on this topic there.

I am thinking of buying a China phone. It does have AT&T WCDMA and GSM bands.
I am concerned that when I put in my SIM the new IMEI may trigger AT&T to make my
unlimited feature phone data ($10 mo) jump to a smartphone plan.
Anyone have experience bringing a China Smartphone onto AT&T and getting the Dreaded
"AUTOmatic Upgrade to 4GB a month plan" sms from AT&T? Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

hi
Thank you for this valuable training.
Which carrier will you use for your Note 3? (Or are considering using)
I currently use Sprint, but I'm disappointed with their lackluster data network so I'm fairly certain I'm converting to t-mobile (with an outside chance of using AT&T, but unlikely).
I'm curious as to what the breakdown is amongst Note forum frequenters. I apologize for the lack of options for non-U.S. carriers, but that information is not of interest to me (Although the proportion of international users is useful, I suppose) I'm a statistician by trade, so the purpose of this poll is to satisfy my (and others') curiosity.
If I get a Note 3 it will probably be a tmobile one because of the unlocked bootloader. I'll use it on ATT. The tmobile S4 works on ATT without a problem.
"technically"
AT&T for me, but, it will be via straight talk, now that they are going to start doing LTE. I was thinking
about AIO, but now that ST is on LTE, I'll probably stay with it.
i don't use much data a month, less than 2 gig. Most of my data is wi-fi anyway. Been happy with
ST, so I don't see any reason now to switch.

I went with Sprint ~2 years ago out of principle (the only carrier I could get unlimited data with) but their network has been so slow for me I can't take advantage of the service. I can get discounts for both t-mobile and AT&T, but I feel like t-mobile offers a stronger value over the next two years for my usage. Depending on how aggressive the throttling is with ST's LTE network and how reliable the service is I'd definitely consider giving them a go, too.
Verizon for me.
I've still got their true unlimited and I'll be damned if I'm giving that up.

So you will be paying full price for it?
well im looking to get full price.. im on att and i been reading that it will be locked and now i read that tmo is unlockedboot..
will tmo work on att 4G/LTE? dont the S800 chips support LTE-A? att is going to get it first or has it already in some places ?
i need a phone that has rom support and needs root.. cant stand bloatwares
I will be using at&t as usual..... The locked bootloader I'm sure will be resolved or bypassed so I'm not worried about it! The most important thing to me is root which should not be a problem!

still new to this rooting thing.. so unlocked boot lets you use the phone on other carriers ? and root just lets you get root access so you can install roms/uninstall bloatware ?
im going with att buying it full price and maybe go back to t-mobile..will the att work on t-mo network?
Unlocked bootloader will allow for custom roms and kernel along with custom recoveries! Root is what it sounds like it gives root access to all system files. Sim unlock releases use on other carriers. And yes at&t device will work on T-Mobile bands.

Is better the other way around... AT&T Note 3 does not support the T-Mobile 1700 band... So you are better of getting the T-Mobile version and using it on AT&T... Since it supports all T-Mobile and AT&T bands...

AT&T LTE - > yes
LTE-A -> yes (same hardware)
Yes it supports it...
As someone mentioned before... More to gain, nothing to loose. With the T-Mobile version
Not to mention wifi-calling with T-Mobile... With the T-Mobile rom...
I do crossovers for the note 2... I have the AT&T Rom on the T-Mobile note 2 forum and the T-Mobile rom on the AT&T note 2 forum...
And the truth is that from my experience T-Mobile Roms are much more smooth than AT&Ts... Plus leessss bloatware.

This is exactly what I'll be doing. Purchasing a T-Mobile variant of the note 3 at full retail price to unlock and use on AT&T's network! :good:

I'm planning to order the Note 3 from Negri Electronics to use it with AIO Wireless, but I would like the option to use it with TMobile in the future. I also want to be able to root the phone to get rid of the bloatware. I was going to get the ATT version when I started reading these posts.
For what you're saying it's better to get the TMobile version because the 1700 band. However in the product page in Negri, for the ATT version, 1700 is listed as supported:
4G Network LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 (I cannot post the links to Note 3 product pages in Negri since I'm new in the forum)
Does that means that the 1700 listed in the ATT version is not the same as the 1700 that TMobile uses? Do you still advice to get the TMobile version over the ATT version?
I'm new to all this stuff and will appreciate any help deciding.
Thanks in advance.
I want to use the service that you would normally have to pay for, not the native hotspot. I need to find out how to stop CyanogenMod 12 from blocking the hotspot check and provisioning. How would I do this? I only get 2.5 gigs of high speed data and can buy 2 gigs of hotspot for my phone. I have virgin mobile BTW.
