Have you tried the "T-Mobile" Development section?!
Believe it or not the Canadian Variant Note 5 is exactly like the T-Mo one!
You'll be able to find Note 7 Roms that have been ported for Note 5.
Good luck.

Thanks @samteeee: have you tried those Roms. I haven't done this in a long time, so I just don't want to brick my phone by flashing a TMO Rom on my Canadian Note 5.

Well, anytime you attempt to flash a rom, you're risking a possibility of something to go wrong,
more on Samsung smartphones than any others! Yet we all do it! So you gotta be a little brave,
but if you find a step by step "how to" and there are many in this community, you'll be alright.
You can try DARTHSTALKER or Express. Nemesis Rom is pretty good too.
Good luck.

TMobile version of note

I know it's only been out a few weeks but are there any roms out for this phone yet? I'm rooted just haven't seen any roms yet. I understand if I use a att ROM data won't work.
I have been away from the Note forums lately, but wouldn't flashing the ATT ROMS then apply the TMO fix work? I'm asking, not telling.

did you REALLY have to post this 3 times??
There was no need for over posting this question search and look
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
I figured 3 post would give me 3 x the answers.... lol it was a mistake guys ... its funny how everyone seems to get a woody out of correcting things around here.
I've searched all over and cant find anything about installing ATT roms on the Tmobile note. I found out how to root the phone but that is it.

Best I can tell...the ATT rom, using the TMO modem will "possibly" work...
keep searching, I remember seeing a thread or two in the QA covering this...
(flash at own risk)
And please...stop posting threads asking the same question.....1 is sufficient...g

Come on Todd. You're not a newbie. Please search for information before making new threads. Especially on how to root when you know it's been covered a bunch of times.
and this is xda, not cyanogenmod.
Smh, No Todd, not at the moment. We have a locked boot loader. This means no custom kernel, and no AOSP based anything.
Sorry Senior Members

My apologies to all. I have been out of this type of thing for a while, was overseas and not really connected to the real world and trying to get back into things. I'll try not to let it happen again. Sorry for not following protocol.

I would say I agree but all s5 roms work on all s5 devices as long as they're not for the "s5 active". That means they work on all carrier models except for Verizon because they completely locked their bootloader. In theory, we should be able to flash the rom without any issues but that's looking like it's not going to happen unless we get a skilled Dev in here to help.

Its a lot to ask on someone but maybe if someone is willing to odin the hong kong(i think thats the region or place that this miui was created) firmware with the regions bootloader and firmware then flash the miui rom to see if that does anything? This wqs created i think back in march or april on the forum this rom was posted in so maybe they have something we dont? Because if i remember correctly the asia galaxy s5 differs fr ours as far as firmware and modem goes because i have had issues booting certain cm11 roms with the wrong firmware/modem. Just trying to offer any help but again i do not have a computer and am worried to flash other firmware that may hard brick my device :/ sorry...

[Q] Custom Recovery?

I was glad to see the Root posted, has anyone seen anything on a custom recovery, such as Clockwork Mod or (preferably TWRP)?

I didn't know ROOT was available until I saw your post - I checked out Chainfire's CF Autoroot thread and found that he did indeed post a download for the TMOBILE NOTE 4 - you will find more information here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/orig-development/sm-n910-cf-auto-root-t2897428

I really wanted to hold out too. But I just cant anymore. especially with all the great developers getting on this device. I know the Custom ROM support will be great and it helps to really debloat the device. Anyway I wont be going without any protection. Im getting the Note 4 and then i will purchase SquareTrade's $100 for 2 years Insurance in case anything goes wrong. I still haven't voided Knox on my Dad's S5 or my Note Pro 12.2 because I'm so paranoid.

Refer to this link. There are different ROMs for different users, they can' t start a rumble and go for the best. One man's ROM is another man's paperweight.

This is because there is always a person asking for best rom/kernel in here, which is tiring to manage. I suggest you do what I did, root your stock phone and use it for a while. In the meantime, read through threads on problems encountered by other users and take note of their solutions. There are plenty of threads on how to change from custom and stock ROMs, these are the ones you are more likely to receive support from.

If you don't want to brick your device and don't want to care to READ then please stay on a stock rom.
