Question regarding the NOTE

the I717 is the NonAWS version while the T879 is the AWS version.. can the T879 be bought overseas or ONLY from TMobile? the N7000 is the international version but doesnt support AWS, I know there is a hack to get it to work but heard the reception isnt as good...

The hack is for i717 and not the N7000 I believe. TurboE's Note was an i717 on Mobilicity.

you could be right,

Note I717
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100

So the hack is to get the LTE band working, which would make sense for it to work on Wind/Mobi..


So is there a hack for any LTE phones that has 1700 to work on Wind/Mobi?

i717 (all canadaian versions EG: i717R etc) can be modded to work on Mobi (yes i have done this.), but you can buy the T-Mobile version. its better all around. works on Wind fine too.

Anyone know decent place to get screen replaced. Dropped from 1 foot up and cracked screen. Fml

sick and tired of my n7000

im still on gingerbread and i check for updates every now and then to ICS but always "update not available". Don't want to do it the unconventional way.

What gives???

fortune favors the brave.:awwyeah:

I'm already on Jelly Bean

Thinking this would make a great travel phone if I unlocked all the bands. Does the mod make the phone pentaband? Or just one or the other?

honestly i don't know. I don't have a LTE SIM

isnt the galaxy note i717 available in canadagsm the pentaband version? sorry for the noob question...which carriers will this work here in Canada and US?

I think they pre mod it for you. It'll work on all major carriers here including wind and mobilicity.

canadagsm sells them ready out of the box. Of course the box has to be opened.

unlocked and ready to go on ANY carrier, well not public mobile i guess. Don't forget you still have the option of using LTE :D

I'm on Wind now, I hit 6Mbps down this morning and 1 Mbps up.

Wifi reception kinda sucks tho.

I'll peruse craigslist for a cheap one lol. I already have a work iphone with 1gb NA data so this will just be for fun :)

i've been checking CL and they're still pretty dam expensive even with the note 2 being released :okay:

my nexus s screen is looking too small now :lawl:

Well the Note 2 isn't quite out yet so I don't expect the Note 1 to drop yet. I've been seeing anywhere from $350 up to $500. I'll wait until the price drops since this isn't going to be my primary phone. It'll just be for travel/gps/ebooks probably.

anyone tried any of the jellybean roms for the i717/n7000?

or can recommend a good ics rom, the stock international ics rom is really laggy for me atm...

thanks in advance

^^well for which phone? you listed two.

anyway, i'm running flapjaxxx AOSPxXx rom.its a JB one. pretty good and only 200 MB footprint. i like the no frills roms.

find it at rootdev.org. updates almost weekly

^^^ go get the pandawan rom its probably one of the best ICS roms and battery efficient as well

Running Paranoid Android on mine.

He's actually asking for both haha

Flapjaxxx for i717 and kingdroid for n7000

yea i am asking for both
ill give the suggestions a try

is there a way to re-flash without losing all your stuff and apps?

my stock ics rom is just way too slow time to try jellybean

If you're rooted you can use titanium backup to backup and restore your apps. Best purchase I've ever made.

or you can also try app2zip as well :D

just flashed the flapjaxx rom..cant seem to get stable lte...what modems u guys usuing?

flapjaxx has a new AOSP xXx rom today 20121010.

im still using the blaze modem cuz i'm on AWS networks
