Samsung Note 3, SM-N9005
Version: Lollipop 5.0
Build: LRX21V.N900VVRUEOF1
Service: StraightTalk, with a New SIM compatible for SS.
*Mobile network state* Disconnected ??
Network: Verizon wireless (thru StraightTalk)
I got the phone activated thru StraightTalk on Wed-Aug 10th.
Transfered service from previous phone:
Samsung Note 3-SM-N9005, version KitKat, 4.4.2, Build: KOT49H.N9005XXUENE3
bought on Amazon and Unlocked..
I can't connect to Google play store, browsers, the Google server for my Email and settings. Not sure whats wrong.
Did a reset today and wiped phone. When I turned back on, it did some kind of update (Not sure if it was the Lollipop upgrade or not).
I got the phone from my Son, it was his thru Verizon but he was done with contract and I needed this phone to connect with StraightTalk thru Verizon towers. Service is bad in the area where I live. In the country and not near major Chicago cities. He lived in city so I know it had no problem.
Not sure what else to do or how to go about fixing it. I never got into Rooting phones yet so that is not an option I want to do yet at this time.
Please Help,
Thanks

The SM-N9005 is the 'world' version of the Note 3 LTE. It is different than the Verizon SM-N900V. They have similar hardware but are setup for different radio bands. The Verizon firmware (build) is NOT compatible with the SM-N9005.

I bought an S7 Edge SM-G9350 Dual Sim that is unlocked. I was planning on using it on AT&T but apparently the Dual Sim model isn't compatible with the 4G LTE in the US. The AT&T rep I worked with called his Samsung rep and verified it wouldn't work on 4G. We checked all the APN settings and bands the device is capable of, verifying it should work. Is there any way to make it work correctly as it seems to be a software issue?
I spoke with another AT&T rep who said it doesn't appear to have the region lock as it wouldn't activate on the AT&T network at all then but he didn't know why it wouldn't work. From the article I read the region lock is separate from the network lock. The region lock is removed if a phone call of 5 min is made in the area the phone is from. Then the region lock is deactivated. Here is the article I found. www . androidcentral.com/your-unlocked-euro-galaxy-s7-still-region-locked-thats-not-huge-deal
Would flashing another ROM work, or what level is the incompatibility? In the network settings there are listings for the carriers and their 2G and 3G settings but nothing else.
Apparently this thread double posted so this one can be deleted by a Mod
really... i'm calling BS on the reps... what is your definition of "working fully"? i have a dual sim G935FD and LTE works just fine on AT&T. the international version is missing 2 bands (29 and 30?), that's used in certain areas. other than that, i personally have not had any issues/ have you tried using an AT&T sim to confirm the phone won't work, use LTE? see below as well (WillMyPhoneWork.net):

I have a SM-935 U device and have been using on the AT&T network. I recently switched to Verizon MVNO (US Mobile). The phone doesn't get registered on the Verizon network. I bought the unlocked S7 edge from best buy thinking that it will work on all carriers. Any help will be appreciated.
The SM-935U do work on all carriers. I have a SM-935V with U firmware on it. I'm with a Verizon MVNO named Total Wireless. Sounds like the phone you go from Best Buy is stilled registered under AT&T...
Not getting registered to Verizon network
When I check the IMEI of my phone against the Verizon compatibility check using their web site, it is fully compatible. The issue is that phone is not getting registered to the Verizon network. I think Verizon is blocking it some how and the MVNO is not able to help me to resolve this.
You ever figure out a solution out to this?

The LTE should work fine, but youll have to set the APN correctly, otherwise it wont get any data, for the CDMA portion youll have to submit the ESN to Verizon to add your ESN IMEI to their database.
Hello. I have an old Samsung Note3 Verizon SM-N900V. I have it unlocked running Android 10.
I want to use this with a PrePaid Card, but does not seem to be available. Does anyone know how to make this work?
The only providers I know that "Could" work are Total Wireless or Straight Talk.
Both Nt10wireless & TotalWireless when I enter the IMEI, it says:
IMPORTANT MESSAGE! Our partners are upgrading their network and your phone is not compatible with the new technology.
on Verizons prepaid activation, when I enter the IMEI it says:
Oops, Looks like your device is no longer supported on our network.
Does anyone know if there is any hope to get this working?
