Hello,
I am going to Toronto in a few weeks and wanted to see if using my i957 would be as easy as switching out the AT&T simcard I currently have in there for a Bell Sim Card. Any help is very appreciated. Thank you.
you need to unlock it

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!

Its a CDMA device you are free to use any compatible CDMA sim cards in it. You can't use gsm or 3g sim cards as this device does not have this technology. Is it CDMA network locked? Do you mean that it is carrier branded and can only run that service provider's sim from which you bought... if that is your case Google is your friend....

*bump* anyone?
Impossible. The Verizon variant can only have the latest Verizon firmware installed

Does this mean the SM-925V is useless in Mexico?
I cannot seem to pickup LTE and I keep getting "SIM Card is not from Verizon"
I'm trying to use a Telcel SIM card.
Seems I was thinking the same as the above, using something like PingPong to switch.
You need to add the apn manually. Then deactivate notification of verizon service

Apologies in advance if there's a thread for this i can't find it.
--Situation:
I have galaxy note 4 verizon 910v
I switched to tmobile, just swapped Sims everything is fine
---Now what I want to do and is this possible:
Root phone
Put tmobile rom on this device
If this is possible can someone help me I been rooting and flashing Roms for years this is my first time doing it like this
The N910V has its own Roms thread, changing the Sim doesn't change your phone to a N910T from an N910V. Do NOT use N910T Roms unless the Dev specifies that it works for the N910V as well. Enjoy

There is no root method for the 910v I have 1 along with the tmobile version. It's only a root method for the dev edition vzw N4
Thanks guys. There's no root yet for the retail n4 910v??

I quit Verizon and traded my Verizon Note 4 for a T-mobile Note 4. Best purchase I've made lately :highfive:
Verizon locked up their Note 4 'til doomsday.
I was wondering if it is possible to unlock this sim slot for any carrier use? Also, is there a better root method than this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/help/guide-how-to-root-salaxy-tab-s2-t817t-t3383736
Considering it's based on 5.1.1, Im currently on 6.0.1 and have little luck in finding any other method. I'm not sure this method would even work considering its 5.1.1.
All help appreciated! Thank you!

I have been using my T817W issued by Bell Canada but I have used local SIM in Japan and Hong Kong without any problem. Yours is a T817T by Verizon?
