I'd like to get one and my easiest way of acquiring one is through a local carrier, but I'm worried if it will have some kind of pitfall. Will I stop getting updates? Will they be slow to arrive? Can it be turned to a stock pure version without the bloatware via a stock rom? Is it worth it? Keep in mind it's the XT1563 latin american version. And the carrier is Nextel.
I bought mine from Mercadolibre (XT1563), I wasnt aware I got the double sim version until I opened it, it seem mine runs with the iusacell rom.
I have been asking my self the same questions.
Updates may be a bit slower to come out. As for bloatware, the only one I found on my Koodo device was the Koodo Self Serve app.
I got mine through Telus, it doesn't have anything extra (Telus bloatware). Updates come in not to bad from them (timely).

Do you try 4g LTE networks with other carriers like Telcel?

Yup, 4G works really nice, at least on Telcel network in my area.

Woah! Nice find!
So, first date for ICS on Tab 10.1 is May2012!
Hopefully this means WiFi model is a month or so earlier.
Finally, an exact date. No more time waiting everyday xD
I guess now one way or another my wifi tab will get a good working ICS by early June. Good news.
nice find , looking forward to May!
Oh...I'm sure there will be leaks.

I wouldn't bank on it, wifi only is still on 3.1 in Canada and the only carrier to offer an upgrade is Rogers which is ridiculous as Samsung Canada have not pushed the updated to wifi only Tabs nor have they said why they haven't

Hi, if i am buying the n9005 instead of n9000 then will it work worldwide? The thing is that N9005 only has Snapdragon 800 whereas N9000 has Octacore 5420 which is faster.
Better off buying 9000 if you want full capability minus lte. 9005 is the better choice if you want lte but don't plan on using lte in the USA. And claiming either one is faster is moot because they're both fast. The choice for me would be which is more efficient if you're not including lte into the equation.
Region Lock
B"H
It appears that all the phones, including the N900 and the N9005 are region locked. Meaning, if you buy a Euro version - it will not work with a USA sim card, and vice-versa.
Samsung really screwed this one up, big time.

One bought in the Americas. There is a thread in the Note 3 General forum discusssing the specific limitations of the "unlocked" Note 3 which now turns out to be only partially unlocked.

I know this question has been asked and answered several times but I swear I have tried everything and still no luck. I talked to ST support but they are no help.
I have a nexus 4 and I just moved to straight talk and ordered an activation kit directory though them. I am up and running but cannot receive MMS.
Thanks for your suggestions and help!

Well I bought the activation kit directly though Straight Talk. Sim says Trac on it.
Att sims are blue.
Tmoble sims are pink.
You're gonna need to tweak your APN settings.
Here's my tmoble APN.

New ATT sims are white. This thread has the settings you need.
Hello, I bought the AT&T Variant not looking into the Developer Forums and not Knowing AT&T also Locks bootloaders, Coming from Verizon on the GS4 (Rooted/Safetrap/Hyperdrive Rom) i should of known better and did a little more research on the device but it was a quick decision since i was already in the AT&T store and this just dropped that week, i had to have it. Fell in love, compared with the N4.. Eh wasn't that impressive i wanted something no one had and to make my iPhone drones friends envy. So i was gonna activate with AT&T but i remembered that Straight Talk uses the same Towers as AT&T i decided just to buy a kit and run a few tests myself, quickly learning how to get the best APN and doing multiple tests with different APN's i finally hit that sweet spot. and im glad to share my results on how to have a massive power horse at the tip of your fingers for a fraction of that high ugly contract bill from AT&T.

I totally agree with you.
Coming from a Verizon Note 2 and using it on Straight Talk, H+ wasn't doing it for me.
And since it also has a locked bootloader, I kind of killed it with the new root.
I need the phone for work so I took the dive and bought the phone yesterday from AT&T.
Today I find out that it also has a locked bootloader but I'm not going down the root path anymore so no big deal there.
I inserted the 4G LTE Straight Talk Sim card, set up the APN and it's AWESOME. I finally know how it feels to have LTE speeds.
Hi guys.. I have a freedompop g2 (ls980) I'm not quite sure what they programmed with but some kind of custom rom for their service?
I had this phone working on ringplus but then they booted me/canceled me :angel:
But when I popped this phone on my other ring+ account.. it didn't exactly instantly come up.. I had to program the msn/phone number manually.. and then I got voice service.. but past that.. the 3G/LTE just won't work.. the phone is constantly caught in this mode

So I'm not sure what the problem is.. as I see it
it could be
1. software?
2. ringplus?
when I dial the programming code ##775# it crashes.. (hitting activate this device also causes a crash) I also see this problem is for others on ring+ but this phone used to work perfectly before ring+ kicked me off a certain account.
I am rooted have twrp on there.. and have put on this mod and taken it back off.. and I do have it on the wifi.. there is a myth or something that the prl can be programmed by wifi?? but doesn't work in my case.
PRL is built in by different operators, in this case, Its a Sprint service. It won't work if you're not using Sprint I think. 3G and LTE won't work because of different CDMA bands/frequencies.
all I can tell you is I got 1x/cdma working.. I wonder if I can dump my lte sim into another sprint phone and expect it to work?
ahh unresolved.. unresolved..
gonna go to used phone store.. and test my ring+ sim's I get to see if they get data.
