It would be just like the S4 I'd assume when you try to flash a non AT&T FW. It won't boot and it will give that error.

I'm trying to find out now if we can flash the 9005 roms to our T-Mobile Note 3's and I haven't had any answers yet.

With the GS2 I just got the file, put it on Odin and it was done so I have no clue about HTC phones. My phone is unlocked but has my networks firmware on it and I cannot update to newer firmware unless I get the stock firmware I'm guessing. So I'm just wondering where I can get that and how I do it?
Thanx.

Just about everything on htc phones is done through custom recovery.
If you have bootloader unlocked the you will need to flash a custom recovery I recommend twrp. After that just make a backup then download and flash a rom.
You can download and flash roms with just the phone no computer needed once you have the custom recovery

No I mean my network doesn't lock the phone but you get their firmware which is annoying. I have no idea how to check the bootloader, never even heard of one before, everything was much easier with Samsung lol.

Custom ROMs are tweaked so more than likely it will be snappier and more battery efficient compared to stock ROMs. Also some custom ROMs have different themes, wallpaper or look than a stock ROM. The only ROM I know that doesn't have ANY visual changes is ARHD ROMs by mike1986.

You need to flash a custom recovery to be able to flash a custom ROM. Read the guide that was mentioned a couple of post above. The steps år basically like this.
Unlock the bootloader through the HTCdev website
Flash a custom recovery
Make a nandroid backup of your stock rom from recovery
Download and copy a custom ROM zip to the SD card
Flash the custom ROM from recovery
No, Samsung was not any easier to modify . I have rooted and modified several devices from both Samsung and HTC. You just have to learn the steps.

If you haven't unlocked bootloader then it is locked you can't root before you unlocked the boorloader

Is it possible to flash a tmobile stock ron onto the verizon note 4?
No, without proper files I wouldn't bother. Even if you successfully boot it up, data ...WiFi and important things of that nature won't work

Nope. Verizon and AT&T models have encrypted bootloader that won't be unlocked to flash a custom ROM or another factory ROM not signed with the correct Samsung firmware keys. Sell it and get the T-Mobile version if you want everything to work properly and have full control over your device.

I was afraid of something like that. I knew it was potentially possible because I have done it to my S4, went from Telus to T-Mo.
Hello Guys , i have the T-mob n4 , my question is: can i flash a unbranded n4 firmware on my T-mob ?
Does anybody have the oem recovery for the tmobile t817? I rooted but need to get back to stoc. Backed up everything else. If there is a better way let me know.
Maybe i should ask a different question, how do you return to stock after rooting?
You need to state which t817 you have?

t-817T for tmobile.

Hi recently few members oriented me about the note 3 att version issues when trying to add a new port to it. I read a little and now i am looking for recommendations to get the best (fastest, clean, uptodate) por for my phone. Opinion recommendations are welcome. I am looking for something stable.
If the n900a is running a 4.3 or newer bootloader, the bootloader is locked which means twrp cannot be installed to the phone and the phone will only run custom roms that can be flashed with safestrap or possibly flash fire.

I think is running the old version. I checked the AP and it ends in OC2
With oc2, the bootloader is locked.

and there is a way out of this? i cant really be sure some posts says you cant soe post there are ways to get something up
Nope, I know of no way around the locked bootloader. Same situation exists for the AT&T Samsung s4 which also has a locked bootloader.
I have never seen a post where someone can run twrp or cwm on an at&t s4 or note 3 with a locked bootloader.
Ohh well there goes my hope i guess i cant do anything. Any other kind of modification i can do to this phone?
You can root to remove bloatware. You can also use safestrap to flash some custom ROMs. Look in the development thread for ROMs that work with a locked bootloader. Here's an example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786666

Do you have a link to any tutorials showing how to root a n900a without needing TWRP? All the guides I am seeing are not n900a specific or tie-in custom ROM flashing as well which is obviously not applicable in this case.

It would help, but I'm already on 5.0 OC2. Is is even possible to root at this point?
It only takes 10 minutes to Odin back to 4.4.4, which can be rooted.

Then I highly recommend the AryaMod ROM. Insanely fast and the battery lasts forever.

Combo files?
Combo files are only available in the android version the device was released with, that being lollipop for this device.
So unless you are prepared to run lollipop then not much use.
I take it your attempting to root with KingRoot using the eng boot?

You mean flash the unlocked bootloader? Those were just regular stock firmware files for the T818w not combination files.
You just need the stock firmware for the T817w.
