What do you mean Stock ROM? Are you talking about a Vanilla ROM made for the Vibrant (which there are none yet) or are you talking about the Vibrant version of Touchwiz. Either way they have different stuff that will not allow a simple load of it. There are many codes that would have to be changed to work on the Captivate. Its the firmware that will not allow it, not the hardware.

Rogers Captivate the same as At&t Captivate?

Any one know if there the same? hardware wise? Like if I where to flash a US/at&t
based rom would it run/work on a Rogers Captivate?
Its my understanding that some of the at&t roms work with the Rogers version...But do all of them work?

From what I understand, they will work, but there are caveats, though they can be fixed some way or another.

Well like I said, I'm just assuming, but here is a Rogers ROM that you may be interested in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914284
But I know that they will work. You can try flashing one and seeing for yourself what issues arise.
Ironically, there is little if any Rogers left in that rom.
I have an i896(rogers), and so far everything is good. I have yet to flash a rom, but the kernals work as well as the modems.
On the sticker inside the battery cover, the only thing that says i896 is the model number. Every other designation on the sticker refers to the phone as an I897
my build number is 1011.
Guys, the rogers captivate is literally the exact same, other than the model number. Every rom I've tried has worked without a glitch, and I've been flashing for a few months now.
Thank you for your input Escapist! You answered my question!

How are we supposed to flash this if this is quincyatt?
From what I understand they are cross compatible. I flashed the T-Mo stock rom onto my unlocked At&t Note since I use T-Mobile for my service which allows wifi calling.

1st post after years of lurking:
My i717 is an unlocked ATT and rooted - to run on Tmo. I wonder if the rom (bloated as it may be comparred to the ROM I'm using) will install well on my 1+yr old ATT model. I suppose only one way to tell. (crossing fingers).
Anyone tried to see if nfc beam works by default on this updated / stock rom?

It will work on either unit. I currently am using an unlocked and rooted I717 and have run successfully both T-MO and AT&T ROM's.
I just need to get one that's not stock T-Mo to get the Wifi Calling working because I need it for my new place where I get NO reception LOL.

Tmobile rom on AT&T Note 3?

Is this possible to install a tmobile stock rom on the at&t note 3 or will the locked bootloader prevent this? just curious as i'm gonna be moving to tmobile for the unlimited LTE and would like to use the stock apps as well with it. Does anybody know if this is possible? I looked around a little bit and couldn't find any information on doing this.

1. This should be in the help section
2. I've flashed verizon roms on my note 3 without a problem so it's possible. All you'll have to do is update your APN settings. It can't hurt to try it, that's the point of safestrap!
Yeah I'm not rooted so was wondering if the tmobile rom via Odin would fail or not

900A info please.

Hey all,
I just purchased this NOTE3 SM-N900A, the dork didnt send me a SM-N900T. In any case what I would like to do is root it with an custom ROM. I have tried ODIN about ten times this morning using the T-Mobile md5 file and I keep getting an error about Secure Magiccode Check Fail: Recovery.
The phone is suppose to be rooted but I cant tell.
I have Samsung Sii,SII and S4 but this one (Note 3) is giving me some problems.
Any and all information will be greatly appreciated to get rid of the ATT stuff and just install a custom ROM. I dont care about any warranties and or the KNOX stuff.
I want to install the TMO firmware with the correct modems.
All suggestions and or comments will be greatly appreciated.
on the ODIN SCREEN it states WRITE PROTECTION Enable.
Videos are welcome too!!
Ciao~

Honestly you may be best off selling the 900A. AT&T has locked the bootloader, so custom roms are limited to one's that work with the stock kernel (basically only touchwiz based roms, no AOSP, CM etc...)

Well Damn, what I really want to add the TMO Firmware. I have it unlocked and rooted, but I want the TMO modems.
It's been done before, there are several threads about it on here somewhere...

[Q] T-Mobile to AT&T

I was using T-Mobile and I'm now on AT&T do I need to use an AT&T Rom? The custom Rom I'm using for T-Mobile does work but wondering if using an AT&T Rom would be best regarding the radios, etc.

there's no such thing on a nexus device as custom roms for different carriers. they are all exactly the same, and will work on any carrier.
So you're saying I can use any Rom on this phone? Since there are custom Nexus 6 roms for T-Mobile and AT&T here so that's my question?

Doesn't matter. I've run the T-Mobile on Sprint. Only radios will have a role in your reception.
Thank you! Do I need to flash the AT&T radio along with any version ROM I choose? I really appreciate the help I just don't want to mess anything up.

No, you only flash a radio once. Unless you want to use a different one. Find the one that works best for you and keep it.
