Note 3 on MetroPCS?

[Lawkev]

If you flash to a new Carrier then no, carrier updates from Verizon will no longer appear to you.

Especially considering carriers control when updates go out to your devices.

However, if you are flashing to a carrier that runs on another carrier, like Straight Talk runs on Verizon, then Verizon will still control your OTA updates.

Have the latest updates been any good? The only problem I have noticed was with the sound. I could go to straight talk for a month to get updates if I really needed them I suppose.

Not being annoying we're here to help

Sometimes the metro workers are kinda misinformed.
Her note won't have access to the 1x network at all. Only GSM/HSPA & LTE if you choose to do the rooting method.
This is how you would be able to turn on Band 4 after rooting and get LTE if your area has it. http://androidforums.com/verizon-ga...ot/796420-how-enable-band-4-aws-sm-n900v.html

The difference between LTE and H+ on Tmobile is that in most areas currently LTE is about 10-20mbps faster

I rooted the note 3 and enabled band 4. It worked on and off for a few days and now the 4G lte does not work at all. It was working on the global setting. When I switch to the GSM setting I get the hspa network. Can anyone tell me why the 4G is not working? My band 4 says idle enabled when I select the global setting.

thanks in advance

I bought a Tmobile Note 3 from Cricket wireless. It works with no unlock. Just pop in the sim and activate. No need for unlock. I got it for $665 new

My does not seem to pick up 4g signal well. It comes and goes. The metro phones have better 4g connection. Does anyone know why that is?

Thanks
