[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Therrm:
[MENTION=4572305]hatnim[/MENTION], II'd like to buy my Note 3 with a subcription to reduce its price but 'd like to stay away from China Unicom as they have crap netwrok coverage, I moved to them 1 year ago to finally have 3G on my iphone but I really regret it. From what I understood the 3G Chinese network can also be used in other regions of the world can't it?

How did you manage to internationalize it since there is not yet a Chinese version of the SM-N9005? If you have a SM-N9002 or SM-N9008, they should not be compatible with international roms (at least that was not the case with Note 2, in my case, I had to purchase the N7100 Chinese version to be able to use it with internatiol roms).

Additional question: tt seems you have the Exynos version but it's still not out in China if I'm not wrong. Where did you get it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hatnim:
Okay.. im on mobile now so would just give you the website（bbs.gfan.com）..but if you are not familiar with chinese i would get you the link to download the official n9006 rom later.. and you can root it with chainfires cf auto root ..

Well subscription with china mobile is good but you cant use 3g or higher when outside china ..you would be stuck on 2g.. they have their own homemade 3g spectrum or something.. if that isnt a bother you can go for that.

The chinese version n9006（sd800） is different from the normal n9005.. to get playstore and other google stuffs stripped off , you would have to install the hk version or taiwan version（roms that start with zs）..hk/tw is not restricted like mainland..

Yeah i did buy exynos because the sd800（n9006） they were offering here was 16gb and had no lte compared to the n9005.. so i got the exynos 32gb for 600rmb cheaper and its from hk or other place..

Yes..very true..but use english next time ...xda rule

你说的是对的。下次用英语吧。。就是一个规则。。呵呵
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Therrm:
+1 for your support Hatnim! I think I'll go for the international version. But one last question since you seem to know a lot about chinese band. Do you think if the International version will receive China Mobile's 3G and HSPA+ signal?

Btw, for how much did you pruchase your Exynos version?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hatnim:
I got it for aprox. 3550RMB online (i guess you know of taobao, .and here is the catch, if you have a chinese friend with CC you can have it on installment plan,like mine is roughly 310 x 12months)..

And sadly no to your other question.. China Mobiles 3G (TD-SCDMA) is home made and i havent heard of any other carrier using it... Your only bet would be Unicom which uses W-CDMA ...I know Unicom really sucks..
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HNevenEG:
Note 3 is no problem!

Hi,

I have a N9002 for about 1 Week now and it´s working good!

It took me only about 3h to root, install Google apps including PlayStore, and the Nexus Keyboard to get more languages.

All you need you can find at XDA!

I took the N9002 because I need dual Sim AND need to run it all around Asia and Europe.

For the dual sim version you will find nearly no custom roms, but that´s not neccessary for root, Google Apps and Keyboard!

Only the China Unicom Version works in Europe and most Asian countries!!!!!

I don´t know why you had so much problems with the Note 2?

I had the Note 2 (also dual Sim version from China Unicom) for around one year and it worked perfect. Also rooted and injected Google Apps and Nexus keyboard.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htcclone:
I could be wrong, but isn't the n7102 a dual sim note 2?

---------- Post added at 12:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------

For custom n9002 stock based rom, try searching "SVA N9002" in google. Made by a Russian developer, charges 12 usd.

I purchase the Chineese version, SM-N-9006. Does your post mean I can flash any firmware for the SD800? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorinkundert:
Close to impossible with a Chinese phone, the Government mandates a locked bootloader where a major part of their surveillance mechanism is located, go to Hong Kong where the phones are open.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dabgoo:
You can still root the device, will trigger knox, but if you're overseas it won't matter much. Once rooted, you can install Google apps, facebook and even youtube. I have done it on my 9002. Works fine. Gmail, Contacts, Calender and G+ to name a few.....oh yeah and Play Store, which works great, can select stuff on my pc and have it sent and installed on my Note 3 with NO PROBS!!

You can flash anything, you just have to be careful because there are 2 types of N3 out. One has 16gb and the other 32gb memory. This results in different size partitions for the different system directories. That's why so many people wind up with bricked phones.....technically it's because the PIT is different. (Partition Information Table).

As for the surveillance mech, I am skeptical that the Chinese Gov would mandate a locked bootloader, do you have any evidence?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obanna1:
Your phone KNOX is still 0x0... warranty not lost... take it to samsung , they will Jtag it and it will work.

Also if you have the original rom, .PIT, pda, phone,csc... you can flash through odin with repartition ticked... however your prevent reactivation means only Samsung...

BTW, you can buy 9005 and 900 in china through HK parallel export and vendors after some bargianing, would offer a 1 year store warranty... I have 1..
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hatnim:
I havent been following the SD800 development that much since i got the Exynos one... and in the beginning i heard the 16gb sd800 was different from the 32gb sd 800... dont know about now... you can check on bbs(.)gfan(.)com about the progress on that...

How Change firmware N9002 to american version

hello friends I have the problem to buy a SM-N9002 in hong kong rooted, but as I change the firmware to an American version? as the root account samsung applications like "find my phone" are in Chinese.

That the android guru can help me?: Eek:

You can't update firmware to American version. What you can do is to "westernize" the Chinese firmware.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirumil:
Hello guys,

I have a soft-bricked N9002 and I am trying to unbrick it.

I tried to upgrade to the latest official firmware, CHU-N9002ZNUENG4-20140805155712, Android 4.4.2, through Odin but I ticked "Nand Erase All", which I think was the mistake. The phone is now bootlooping to the China Unicom splashscreen, with the mentions "RECOVERY BOOTING...Set Warranty Bit: recovery" and then vibrating twice before bootlooping again.

I am not accustomed to Samsung phones, but from what I have read on the forum, I would need to flash a PIT file to re-partition the phone.

So my question is, does anyone have such PIT file, or where can I get it?

Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, so i was trying to flash my Gs3 to VM and my data worked had 3g and all, but my calls wouldn't work, searched and found i forgot to change my esn and meid, so i followed this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkXQFgvfD6o&feature=c4-overview&list=UUmoc6r7GJZyhC02tf4u0X6A to the T and now my esn is permanently 0000000000 and when i went into DFS to fix the problem my spc didnt work... so i tried to get it again from "get my msl" witch worked before. and it shows my msl as blank, i opened my 85 i had saved on my desktop and all it says is NULNULNULNUL....

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] snekiam:
I know it may sound like a pain, but I went through this before, while doing flashing work. I believe that ##72786# worked for me, and I was then able to get my msl. It was awhile ago, so I do not fully remember.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] symbiiote:
i did that and my phone restarted, is this normal?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] snekiam:
Yes, this is normal. Try your flashing again, and it should work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] symbiiote:
i can flash roms no problem, i cant get my msl because its blank. if i flash with odin, can that help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] snekiam:
Yes, when changing carriers, it is called flashing. ##72786# is a network reset, which should give you your MSL back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] symbiiote:
i already know my original msl code, its when i changed it to 000000 now no password i in put works at all

You can try flashing an LJ7 Rom. Then use the method from THIS thread. Also you may want to check out the thread HERE. Especially THIS post.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] symbiiote:
ive done all of this and ive seen that guys videos, thats where i learned it from. its just after i changed 85 like his video my msl became unlock-able and now i cant do anything with the phone... i have the same rom as him and everything, even flashed that radio to.... im running out of ideas:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeremy112683:
I had to go back to stock unrooted before I got my MSL. I wrote it on the battery cover so I'll never have to search again. It took me hours before I got it

thats the thing.... i already HAVE the MSL code but when i tryed to CHANGE it to 000000 it got corrupted some how.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
You may want to ODIN back to Stock. Then try and start the process again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] symbiiote:
did that yesterday... nothing... i guess its hopeless....

They are not random, they appear if the phone detects that you have used the microUSB-charger. Probably if you've switched microSD or microSIM as well, basically they show up when you do anything related to micro.

never had any such notifications at all. charging via micro usb flap so thats always opened.

i cant see there being flap sensors else it would be in the diagnostics app.

that and its not really in sonys interest to put them there

Makes good sense. I haven't had it appear after usb charge, but it could very well have popped up on me after the microsd change.
