[Q] Telstra firmware on AT&T tab?

Hi,
I'm in NY at the moment but I'm headed back to Australia later in the week. The AT&T Galaxy Tab is $649 and the Telstra version is $840. I gather that SIM unlocking either version is not a problem. I spend a fair bit of time in both places. As the Telstra version has voice enabled, I was wondering if it's possible to simply flash the Telstra firmware onto the AT&T Tab? Would this cause any issues? Would it then be essentially an identical device to the Telstra sold tab?
Thanks.

It looks like you will be the first to find out. Sorry couldn't help mate

Find us Telstra firmware and we can at least test that the phone works here in some way.

I posted a similar Q a while ago. I want to flash my T-mobile Tab into a generic Euro (GT-P1000). After that I would like it to work with upgrades through Kies etc.
If I just understood the risks or pro/cons I would go.

I bought the telstra tab. It is unlocked out of the box and has voice enabled. It uses the same bands as att. So I am guess ing this firmware would work fine on an att tab.

It should, but please follow my backup thread and backup your existing firmware before you flash the Euro firmware. Someone, maybe even you, may need it someday.

I don't think I will need to flash any other firmware. The telstra firmware has voice calling and side loading enabled out of the box. It is also sim unlocked. I should be able to put my att sim in, change the apn and go!

[Q] how to flash Galaxy Tab Sprint to another operator?

I have Galaxy Tab Sprint cdma.
I want to flash it to another operator.
how to do this? help please!

If its gsm, root it then download galaxy s unlock from the market and run it. You are now carrier/sim unlocked.

Do you know if that would work with my sprint CDMA galaxy tab?

Sprint is CDMA operator.I want to flash another CDMA operator.

there is a thread about flashing the Sprint tab to Boost mobile, it's not a simple process. As far as a CDMA carrier overseas you'd have to check to make sure they are using the same CDMA frequencies.

We have operators that use the same frequencies that Sprint and Verizon.
I can not find anywhere instructions for flashing galaxy tab to another operator.
where I can see how the stitch Sprint tab to Boost mobile ?

Hey OP http://tinyurl.com/3mqe495

Usually you don't have to do something manualy with your TAB. Visit CDMA operator service and ask them - they can do this in 15 minutes.
I've did the same at Intertelecom.

HELP! What to flash next!!

Hi I have rooted and s-off'ed my HTC ONE but I do not know what version of recovery to flash.
There are options for t-mo Verizon sprint ect.... in the htc one toolkit but not for O2.
I am assuming I should install the international version...is this correct?
Also are the roms in this forum all compatible with a UK O2 model or do I need to be looking for something in particular.
Sorry for the Dumbass questions!!

All your assumptions are correct!

to help you out in the future.
International, T-mobile, AT&T, O2 = GSM
Verizon, Sprint = CDMA
Anything international will work for your phone.

Thanks just being ooo-ber careful with my new toy dont want to brick in the first few days

need some advice for note 4

Hello I have a verizon note 4 and am using it on tmobile my question is this, Now that the 910v can be rooted what happens if I root it and download a tmobile rom and install it on the phone? Will it work or will it brick the phone? I have no idea if there is any real difference between the verizon note and the tmobile note besides the carrier. Any input would be appreciated as I cant stand the verizon bloatware and would love to have my tmobile stuff back
thanks in advance

As far I know not possible
Tmobile is GSM model and verizon is CDMA frequency bands different.

I did something similar with AT&T G2 and loaded a Tmobile ROM on it. First you need root and TWRP or equivalent. and then some developer have to created a modified bootstack that are tailored for your phone model to work with the rom. Once you load the bootstack, then you load the rom without the radio. Not for the faint of heart.

Question [SOLVED] Unlocked Canadian Carrier Info?

SOLVED!
Samsung Official Unlocked Firmware:
Canada = XAC
United States = XAA
---------------------------------
I'm looking for anyone who knows a little more about the firmware's for Samsung phones. Or anyone who has ordered the S21 Ultra from Samsung and lives in Canada.
I just got mine today through Bell, and because it's a carrier phone, it has a bunch of Bell bloatware on it that can't be deleted.
I know that the U1 model phones are the unlocked from Samsung, but as far as I could find, those are all to US residence, do they also ship U1 phones directly to Canada and we have our own carrier tag on SamFW.com?
I'm using the T-Mobile U1 firmware on my S20 Ultra and everything works fine, but we also don't have 5G yet, and with this phone, Bell is giving out the new 5G SIM cards so 5G is coming, and I just want to be sure all 5G bands are going to work. I looked it over and it seems that all T-Mobile bands are the same as everyone in Canada (for any US people out there trying to help, all Canadian Carriers use the same bands) so T-Mobile has a pretty good match for us up here.
However, before I flash the T-mobile SM-G998U1 firmware onto my G988W to remove all of the Bell bloat, does anyone know if there is a Canadian specific or direct from Samsung firmware for the unlocked devices directly from Samsung sold to Canada?
On SamFW.com, for the Canadian SM-G988W, it shows as follows
BMC -Bell
BWA - ?
CHR - Chatr
GLW - Freedom Mobile (@Devhux)
KDO - Koodo
PMB - Public Mobile (@Devhux)
RWC - Rogers
SOL - Possibly Shaw? (@Devhux)
TLS - Telus
VMC - Virgin
XAC - Samsung Official Unlocked (@Devhux)
I couldn't figure out what any of the unknown carrier tags are, and are any of those for the direct from Samsung firmware? (no carrier bloat)
The same goes for the US SM-G998U1 firmwares as follows
ACG -
AIO - Cricket (@iBowToAndroid)
ATT - AT&T
CCT - Xfinity Mobile/Comcast (@iBowToAndroid)
CHA - Chat Mobility
FKR - ?
LRA - ?
TFN - ?
TMB - T-Mobile
TMK - Metro PCS (@iBowToAndroid)
USC - U.S. Cellular
VZN - Verizon
XAA - Samsung Official Unlocked (@iBowToAndroid)
XAR - ?
XAS - ?
Are any of those the direct from Samsung unlocked firmware tags?
If you don't know which is Samsung official unlcoked, but do know what any of those tags are, feel free to post below and I'll update the list so we can get more info on what all of these are.
Thanks

GLW - Freedom Mobile (formerly owned by GlobalLive Wireless)
PMB - Public Mobile
RWC - Rogers
SOL - Shaw? (Guessing)
XAC - ?
Not sure if this helps but here's my Software Information screen from my S21 Ultra purchased from Samsung Canada.

Hey you figured it out, deadly! It says at the bottom under carrier info XAC.
So XAC is the official samsung unlocked firmware.

I missed that! As for the SJR tags, I almost wonder if that's related to Shaw (like how it downloaded the Shaw network settings). SJR = J.R. Shaw (founder of the company)? That would be an interesting tidbit if so.

Need some advice. I have an unlocked S21 Ultra coming from Samsung USA. Should I flash the with XAC or just use it with XAA which is what it should come with?
If it matters I am on Koodo.
Also, I am new to firmware flashing. If I need to flash XAC do I set up the phone with or without a sim card right out of the box and then flash it.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Not sure if there are any other advantages to flash unlocked firmware outside of removing carrier bloatware. Are there others?
