Hey guys, is there a difference between the Tmobile Galaxy Tab and the non carrier Galaxy Tab?
Because i want to know if i can flash etc with the ROMs in the forums on a Tmobile Galaxy Tab?
Any tab with a sim card is flashable. So, no difference.

Hi all.
Im really familiar with Galaxy phones, and have flashed mine countless times.
Ive got the opportunity to buy a Galaxy Tab outright from telstra here in australia, for $299.00.
The unit is apparently locked to their network.
I have a plan with Optus for my Galaxy phone, and was hoping to use the Optus sim in the Tab.
Will flashing it unlock it so this can be done?
Dont wanna go and get a new plan just to use it if possible.
EDIT : After some googling, im pretty sure that the UnlockCode app, designed for the Galaxy S, will probably also work with the Galaxy Tab.
Greetings,
I am in the market for a tablet and I am considering the Galaxy Tab 8.9. AT&T in the US is offering a deal where if you buy and activate an AT&T locked 8.9 Galaxy Tab you get a free Samsung Galaxy S2 or S2 Skyrocket.
Here are my questions:
1. What are the benefits or drawbacks from buying the AT&T branded and locked Galaxy Tab 8.9 versus the unlocked Galaxy Tab as shown here on Expansys: http://www.expansys-usa.com/samsung...16gb-android-tablet-black-850-1900-3g-223265/
2. Is the AT&T Galaxy Tab easy to unlock and use sim cards from other countries when traveling abroad?
3. Are there any other differences hardware wise between the AT&T Galaxy Tab and the one in the link above? I cannot find any and have checked multiple sites for information.
4. Would it be possible to flash the rom of the unlocked Galaxy tab to the AT&T Tab?
Any help or opinions greatly appreciated!
I will try to answer you the best I can.
1. AT&T version is faster and newer from my knowledge, but with far less developmental support. ATT supports 4g and LTE while the old tabs only do 3g and wifi. The older generation tablets have good developmental support with an ICS port in development. No custom ROMS at the moment for the ATT version.
2. No experience here, sorry.
3. The old tabs have tegra2 chips, while the ATT version uses qualcomm (snapdragon) chipsets. ATT is 1.5ghz while the 3g one is 1ghz. Both dual core. ATT battery capacity is ever so slightly larger as well. ATT version is 2 grams heavier (lol). The ATT one is considered snappier and more responsive from what i hear, but if the 3g one receives ICS then they could be comparable. The ROMS and Kernels from the older tabs are not compatable with the ATT LTE one. The closest thing to the ATT tablet is the Galaxy S II Skyrocket.
4. ATT Tab is only rooted at the moment through a custom kernel. No CWM or ROMS yet.
Hope this helps, and if I am wrong anywhere someone correct me. Thanks.
Thanks for your help that was very informative! I am still curious about the unlock on the AT&T version though because I travel a lot. Anyone else have any ideas about unlocking the AT&T Tab? I did several searches but could not find specific information for the AT&T version. Thanks.

2. It's unlockable online.
SIM unlock
Has the question about unlocking solved? I was looking at the tablet too and wanted to find a way to unlock it? Is there a way to do it after rooting it? I don't want to buy it from one of those unlock website.

What is the code name (ex. d2att for the galaxy s3) for the Wind Mobile Galaxy S6?
Also, I'm pretty sure the Wind Mobile Galaxy S6 is like the T-Mobile Galaxy S6 (just like the Bell Galaxy S3 is like the AT&T S3) so does that mean all T-Mobile ROMs will work with the Wind Mobile Galaxy S6? Does the ROM have to specifically say the model number of the Wind Galaxy S6 is compatible (ex. if a ROM says it's for ABC-123 I can assume it will work with ABC-123W?).
I think the Canadian one are sm-g920w8. Same bands as the sm-g920t. Not sure if the roms will work though.
