I currently have the Note 5 - N920i model...
I was perusing through the T-Mobile Note 5 development thread and stumbled upon a user who successfully installed TekHD's ROM on their N920i.
I wanted to see if anyone else has tried it?
If so which model Note 5 are you using?
Also, how do you go about flashing a T-Mobile ROM for our international model?
I think they are on build COI5 for the N920T and we are currently on AOH6 for the N920I.
I would like to try it, I just don't want to accidentally brick or damage my phone in the process.
Only ROM we have now is Dr. Ketan's and it's excellent but it's the ONLY rom we have to try so far.
It seems T-Mobile has more development going on in their thread than we do in our international Note 5 thread.
Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated!!
I guess not... lol

Hi All...waiting for UPS to deliver my pre-ordered Note from AT&T. I use Titanium Backup and also Amazon Appstore so I definitely need to root my Note...Do I use the methods already posted here on the forums? Or will it be different seeing as this is the US version of the phone? Don't want to mess anything up by using the wrong method to root. Also, what about ROMS? Can we use any that are already out there or do we need to wait until the official release of the AT&T Note for the Devs to start cooking for us?
Thanks in advance for any help.
i dont think anyone has the att version yet. so no test has been done
Try rage against the cage method with one click root. Dont bother with the cf kernel root and custom rom here. Unlike the old days of captivate and galaxy. Note is very different between these two models .

Please be careful when doing any mods on the at&t version of the note.
The chipsets are different. I think there is a thread somewhere warning not to
update the rom on the i717 (at&t) with the international (N7000) note and vice
versa. The exploit for one might not work on the other.
Might be best to start a thread on the at&t note forum, just to be safe.
hi Guys,
I was just curious to know if it is possible to flash international version ROMs on an unlocked t mobile Note 4 910T.
Please advise.
Thanks Guys
Yes, there are several in the development forums. They have to be customized to work, and you lose T-Mobile specific features (WiFi calling), but it is doable.
I've flashed a few from the main Note 4 forums. Just be aware (as last poster mentioned) that you'll lose TMO features. Also, be sure to download a N910T compatible kernel and flash it after you flash the 910F ROM, or else the ROM often won't boot.
Haven't had a note in a while and thinking about picking up a note 4. I am with T-Mobile and would purchase the T-Mobile version, I read about different variants and just wanted to make sure they could all be rooted, custom recovery and flashed without issue. In some of the threads here when people have issues, others ask what variant, etc.
Thanks

Get the sm-n910t (t-mobile version). Very mod friendly.

The T-Mobile version comes with the bootloader unlocked out of the box. You can do whatever you want with/to it.
I just purchase a T-Mobile Note 4 on 11/17/15 from one of their store. The model that I got is the SM-N910T3 and not SM-N910T. It comes with Android 5.1.1 installed instead of 4.4.4. You will probably end up with this model. Does anyone know if this variant is still bootloader unlocked? I also read that the TW 5.1.1 rom has root blocking enabled by Samsung, can anyone recommend a custom kernel that can override this to prevent a bootloop?
T is better for ROM Support VS. T3. T3 may be smooother

You want the T version for more ROM compatibility. The T3 version can be rooted and has a few ROMS but supposedly Samsung changed something in the phone so it has alot less ROM support. It does have root and 1 or 2 good ROM's though.
Root for T3
More info on T3

Did you ever end up buying this phone? I have been thinking about picking up a used one on Swappa to use as my daily driver until Samsung releases the S8 or Note 8. I currently have a LG V10 and even though it has an unlocked bootloater and root, there is zero ROM development for it due to issues with LG firmware/drivers.
Hi Everyone!
I was hoping someone with more experience could answer something for me. Does anyone know if we can flash international roms on the n920W8 canadian note 5?
I remember back when I had a t-mobile note 5, I could flash international roms as long as i flashed a working kernel and flash audio call fix.
I would love to try international roms, but I can't seem to get them to boot up.
Any help would greatly be appreciated and I will certainly remember to hit your thanks button!!!
I've just been informed our organization is switching to T-Mobile. We don't get new phones (darn!!). We do get our old Sprint phones unlocked. My phone is a Note 5 (N920P). I understand it to be capable of using T-Mobile once it is unlocked.
BUT.... I could use some pointers to the newest Samsung-based rom - I hope an S7/S8/N7/N8 (aka Note 7 or 8 or even later) touchwiz-based rom - that is stable and would run fine on my (unlocked) N920P with T-Mobile as carrier.
ANY help welcome. I've flashed a lot of roms, but would appreciate a little help and saving myself from having to try every rom I find here.
THANK YOU.

I've been using my N920P unlocked Variant for about 1.5 years now.
But i have it on 6.0.1 still and i do not plan to upgrade it to N. Because after upgrading to N i cannot go back to 6.0.1 anymore.
How's the battery life on android N?
