I know the AT&T note 2 and att galaxy s4 were unlocked to utilize tmobile's aws bands. I checked the specs of the AT&T note3 and it appears that technically that it can access those tmobile aws bands. Can somebody let me know if I buy an AT&T note 3, will I for certain in the future be able to access those tmobile aws bands if I install the correct baseband? Are there people working on this unlock?
Hi.
AT&T and T-mobile variant of Galaxy S5 have a lot of LTE bands, but Verizon Galaxy S5 has only 2. I wonder if there is a way of enabling more LTE bands on Verizon S5. I know some phones have support to do more bands than what they are shipped by default.
If i unlock a Verizon galaxy S5 will it work with wind in Canada? Verizon is cdma so will unlocking the Verizon S5 to gsm cause any limitations?
Can you use a euro s7 edge in the us on sprint?
Doubtful. Sprint (and Verizon) use CDMA, and Europe has standardized on GSM for calling. I doubt the Exynos versions of the phone have CDMA radios.
While Sprint is limited on which unlocked and international phones work on its network, if you *are* able to activate it on Sprint, here's info about the limitations:

Can you use an unlocked T-Mobile S7 on Sprint? I'm not sure if it has all the bands (CDMA & LTE) to be compatible. Would you need to flash Sprint firmware or is it simply not doable.
not possible cause it doens't have CDMA internals. CDMA phones on the other hand can, cause they have both CDMA and GSM internals.

Figured but was hoping that wasn't true. Thank you.
all of the snapdragon s7's are the same internally.. you just need to flash g930u to it
Well, because it is unlocked, you CAN use it on Sprint, BUT you can only use it on LTE. Because it doesn't use CDMA, you won't have 3G and below. This is problematic in spots where you don't get LTE because you will instantly drop to no signal.
What about an AT&T S7 Edge? Would it work on Sprint? Model # SM-N935A?
All of the US S7 variants are exactly the same hardware-wise, meaning they all support CDMA.
You could flash the U firmware on it but you won't be able to activate it on Sprint becuase it is neither an original Sprint or an original U variant unit and hence isn't in their white list of allowed devices on their network.
