Returned at&t Note for T-Mo Note to use on at&t

[jlczl]

13 days in I made the decision to return it and get the T-Mobile version instead.

What I've gained:

Unlocked BL (root/debloat/ROMS)
Download Booster
Samsung headphones
Samsung box
$75 ($750 vs $825)

What has stayed the same:

Still using it on at&t (same speeds, network strength, etc)
Hardware (obviously)
Everything else

What has gotten worse:

Nothing yet
Nothing I can foresee

The Note 4 is a beast but I just could not stand how locked down and limited the at&t version was. Since I also have a T-Mobile account it was a no brainer to get one from them instead (once I read on xda it was completely compatible).

Just an FYI in case anyone else was planning on doing the same thing and wasn't sure about it yet.

Did TMO give you the unlock code over the phone?

I'm using an att one right now. You bough it for $750? I just stayed with the $299 contract price.

I got my unlock code from an unlocking company. Always do because I switch between T-Mobile and at&t all the time and the carriers usually make you wait before they'll give you an unlock.

Yup, the T-Mobile variant is cheaper by $75. I don't consider the 2 year contract price a real price since you actually pay more in the long run usually.
