wats the diff b/w indian version & other countries Galaxy note?

Hi all, it will be great if someone clarifies on the difference between indian version Galaxy note and other countries Galaxy note.. Am an Indian living in Kuwait and I wanted to buy this mobile from India as it s very cheap there. But will there be any difference in terms of GSM thing and quality of manufacturing?

I do not think so! there shouldn't be any differences as such...
Tapashocked via my gt-I9003 with a random keyboard of my choice !

Hi,
I am going to buy Galaxy note.
But i have a doubt.
Does the Indian Galaxy note have GPU(Malli 400) built in it?
Cause i cant find in the specifications of the Samsung India site.
I want to buy it today but i am worried about the presense of GPU in the Indian version of it.
If anybody has details regarding this please reply.
Thanks.

India has 3.5G in all (yes, all) cities with multiple operators (3 operators likely in wherever you go for 3.5G) and soon operators are launching 4G.
2G is GPRS which being in India, i have never seen on my phone in past 10 years, even in remote areas, there is EDGE which is 2.5G network and manages a 10kbps speed minimum (that's for villages too)
There is no NFC in note.

Since when did the Euro-spec Note ever include NFC? I have that, and there's no mention of it having NFC anyehre. If you have it, can you post screen shot's for proof please? Also include shots of firmware and build. Thanks!

True. But the flipcase is really crappie. Not practical at all.

Definitely don't agree with you... I love the flipcase, it barely adds any bulk and gives many more options to grip the phone (espy when taking photos)

Oh don't worry, as soon as I get my phone, there will be pictures and possibly an unboxing.
There will be information to be shared!

Hey...
I just pre-ordered my S3 from KT this past weekend. I have been a iPhone user for a long time and wanted to try out Android. I hope I like the jump

I have no doubt that you will enjoy the jump.
Most people do!
It is tough for us in Korea, because there isn't much English support for our phones, that is why I opened up this thread.
We have a really good thread with lots of people actively participating for the Galaxy S I. That's the phone I have right now.
So this will be a good place to post questions and answers to help fellow English speakers here in Korea (or who have bought the Korean version).

Will anyone signed up to buy one so far be able to test if they come unlocked? I know they should do but confirmation (both from KT and SK possibly LG users too) would be great. It's not that I don't trust the salespeople in the stores here but would love to know for sure.
I'm not sure if this can be done via software or you physically have to put in the other SIM card to see, shouldn't be hard though if a friend is on another network.
I'm excited about the possible upgrade!

Call the service center (dial 114 from your device) and tell them you'll be traveling so you need your device unlocked. They should take care of unlocking without problem. It took me 5 mins to completely unlock my KT iPhone. Simple and easy

Are you serious about this?
Without any charge at all? That is pretty cool if that is true!
But, how can you check to see if it is unlocked after....just put in a different SIM card?
Anyone know the number to dial to check from the phone settings?

Do you have an existing phone line? Which carrier is it? I'm pretty sure that SK and KT can unlock your phone with no charge.
Edit: I can confirm that as of September 2010, all devices sold by SKT and KT except the iPhones are factory unlocked. If you want to make sure, just check in with the CSRs!

My device (SHW-M110S) is the Korean SGS I.
It is not unlocked. I took it back to Canada about 2 months ago and put in a local SIM card. It did not work......But, I did however buy that phone at the end of August beginning of September 2010.....

If it was locked, you could've talked to the CSR for an unlock code. Your device was probably locked because it came out before SK brought out the policy. But yeah, the new ones including the GS3 should be out unlocked.

Interesting to know what are the frequencies of LTE and WCDMA in SK unit
Hoping the SHV-E210S supports the following frequencies:
WCDMA: 850/900/1900/2100
LTE: 800/1800/2600
Exynos 1.4 Quad and 2GB..
With this spec, definitely i will import one to Australia.
One question tough, not sure why the SHV-E120S support 80 char messaging and i am hoping the E210S support 160 chars just like all other normal phone.

Has anyone heard exactly when the phones are coming out? I am a bit excited!

I am jealous of u guys in SK, Quad Core 2gb LTE, meanwhile I'm stuck having to get the US Variants here.

It's a korean thing, any msg over 80 characters turns into an MMS
You can avoid this by running a 3rd party sms app though easily enough.

June 28th for 3G version (SKT exclusive). I'd expect the LTE models to come out in early July. I feel like SKT is going to have them first, as Samsung seems to favor SKT more than any other carriers.

Will the new Google version of the Glaxy S4 work in UK?

Hi all,
I am thinking about buying the new Pure google S4 thats coming out, but i am not sure if it will work on the uk networks.
Does anyone know if it will work in the uk (the 3 and vodaphone networks)?.
Seeing it works on tmobile USA and AT&T is it possible to know what frequencies it operates on???.
Thanks
Corey

Yes it will. It's just an i9505.

[Q] Which model for Kuwait then USA?

Love my Verizon S4 but unable to use in Kuwait. Will be in Kuwait and would like the S4 version that I can use there and when I return in a year, use in the US. Which model do I get and do you know which carrier is good in US?

Buy only GT I9505 that is LTE for use in your country.
Next is question about what US carrier provider to choose when back home.
have a nice stay there.

You can buy any GT-I9500 3G or GT-I9505 4G-LTE.
Galaxy S4 black edition is also available..
GT-I9505 4G-LTE & S4 Black Edition are preferable though

if you are choosing between the N9005 and the N9002,
in terms of hardware, they are practically the same except the dual sim version (N9002) supports only 3G up to HSPA+
while the single sim (N9005) will support LTE.
another thing of note is that the N9002 is a China exclusive model; it will still work for most carriers worldwide but the main catch is that it does not come with Google play store and google apps pre-installed. This can easily be rectified though by rooting and installing a custom ROM.
other than that, the N9002 is currently the king of dual sim phones worldwide; with premium flagship specifications.
so the choice would depend on your priority for LTE vs Dual sim.
