Availability of the A501 in Germany / Europe / the world?

Hi there,
I am interested in the A501 as I need a 3G connection. I wrote to the Acer Support in Germany and they just said that the release was put back but they make a secret out of a possible release date.
So, I am really angry and thinking about buying another device. However, before I do that, I wanted to know if you guys have some more information about when it will be available in Germany or Europe or even somewhere else in the world.
Thank you!

I live in New Zealand and I just bought one yesterday. So it's available here.
Samsung Galaxy S I9000T
(Telecom NZ)

you can buy an Acer A501 in France it's available since almosts 4 weeks... I assume there are no compatibility problem between French and German release

It's already available at amazon germany.

I bought one in Germany and it works fine.

hi thanks for the reply ? do you get samsung uk warrenty with it ????

No but I don't live in europe anyway.
I would hope Samsung would honor any problems but not expecting any.

[Q] Is my SM-N9005 back at stock? (especially for UK SIM-free users)

Hi, I've done what I think is necessary to ensure my Note 3 is back at stock from previously being rooted. I'm confident I rooted without ever having tripped Knox, so I'm sure there should be no trace of root. I'm selling and want to ensure the buyer is able to update to Android 5 Over The Air if they so choose. However, when check for any Over The Air software updates it says it's up-to-date, despite being on Android 4.4.2 - I thought all Note 3s could be updated to Android 5 by now including sim-free in the UK.
So my question is, with the info I give you below, is it all fine or could it *not* be truly back at stock?
Hardware:
SM-N9005 32GB sim-free (i.e. never network-locked)
Bought new and sealed on eBay ages ago!
Samsung sticker inside the battery compartment has a UK address (Yateley, GU45 6GG) but the back cover and box have the 'LTE' branding rather than '4G'. I would've thought a phone for the UK would brand its connection technology as 4G. It came with English paperwork but more paperwork was in Arabic, and the back of the box has Arabic text (as well as English).
Software:
Flashed using Odin 3.09: N9005XXUGNG1_N9005OXAGNJ3_N9005XXUGNG1_HOME.tar
*#1234# shows:
AP: N9005XXUGNG1
CP: N9005XXUGNG1
CSC: N9005OXAGNJ3
Thank you for any help, I'll be sure to check back

Android 5.0 isn't currently rolling out to UK unlocked Note 3's. My misses has a Note 3, never rooted and no software update for her yet. Yateley is under 10 miles from where I live (Hampshire) so its definitely a real place. LTE is exactly the same as 4G so I really wouldn't worry that it says LTE and not 4G.

Thank you speedyjay that's great news (for me if not Note 3 users ). Puts my mind at rest. I suppose I could've installed an earlier firmware to check it would OTA to the current one the phone is on, but I know I've done everything the right way. So your reassurance wraps this up. Cheers.
PS I know Yateley is a real place ha ha I was wondering why it has UK branded labels like that whilst including things that don't appear for the UK market! I didn't make that clear.

No limitation. The only thing is when you setup device initially - the default language will be in the language of the device origin. I have a german DBT Note 4 myself - imported to Ireland. So on initial setup I'm greeted in German - so have to change to english.
Other than that you should have no problems. Likewise you will receive updates based on the territory you bought your device, so if the UK get lollipop OTA update - don't expect your own to get it at same time - you will get that when the update rolls out for the territory your device was originally bought in...
Unless you flash a clean new official rom and change your CSC. But familiarise yourself with the Note 4 before worrying about doing anything like that.

you'd only face the real limitations if you had a US SIM, as the European note 4 models come with a temporary region lock to discourage import.
since the UK is part of Europe, there shouldn't be a problem.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge - Any difference between UK and EU versions?

Hi,
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge that was advertised for sale with the UK's SM-G935FZDABTU model number.
During the initial set-up of the phone I was invited to logon to my Samsung account, which I did.
When I later visited the Samsung website, I found the phone I had been sold had the model number SM-G935FEDAATO instead of the standard UK one.
I've been unable to find the specifications of the phone I have other than the fact that it is available in several European countries, particularly - if Google search results are anything to go by - in Austria.
I got the phone for a good price and want to keep it if I can. On the other hand, I would like to know what comprises I'll be making if I do so.
Can anyone give me an idea of what the differences between the UK and EU versions of the S7 Edge are likely to be?
Thanks for reading this

There shouldnt be any differences between all eu models. Mine is bought in Germany and is running UK BTU firmware. If it runs exynos proc. Then its eu model because snapdragon is for usa only as im aware.
