It appears that Samsung has quietly released a new member of their Galaxy S II family. The Samsung I929 Galaxy S II Duos is the China telecom version of the extremely popular http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i92...h_dualnetwork_support_surfaces-news-3569.php#SMARTphone and is the first Galaxy S II device to come with both CDMA2000 and GSM support. The I929 Galaxy S II Duosis built around a 4.52" WVGA Super AMOLED Plus screen and features a 1.2 GHz dual-core CPU. The company hasn't published the exact details of the chipset, but the clock speed of the CPU suggests that the Galaxy S II Duos runs on a modified Exynos.

Sir,
According to Specification, this phone works with CDMA2000. Can it work with WCDMA? Can I change the ROM so that it can be used with WCDMA?

No, it doesn't have a WCDMA radio (it seems) so there is nothing you can do.
If you want one with WCDMA (aka UMTS or HSUPA/HSDPA) go with the international i9100 if you want GMS/UMTS there is also the SGH-T989 which goes by the SGS2 name but has very different hardware Qualcomm vs samsung exynos.
Depends on which part of the world you live in.

that's correct it will work on wcdma only. In china, different telecom companies use different radios. China telecom uses CDMA 2000 while China Unicom uses WCDMA. China Mobile uses GSM only.
I ask my self why Samsung can't or whon't to release an I929 for europe with WCDMA and all that we need.
-why only for china????

N9000 camera Vs N9005 camera
Hello guy
I'm so confused about the camcorder differences of N9005 and N9000 version.
Does N9000 has 120fps filming?
I heard somewhere that the only difference is that N9005 has 4K capability. However, some say that N9005 has 720p 120fps filming, a capability that N9000 lacks.
Can you please clear this up? Are they only different in terms of 4K filming?
Those who have N9000 version please post a sample of 120fps filming if their phone has that capability.
Thanks in advance

do you think 4k resolution is that important? the max resolution we may see is 1920x1080, so even if it up to 4096×2160 (4K), you don't feel any difference.
there are many difference between N9000 and N9005, like N9000 is with Exynos 5420, supports WCDMA/GSM, N9005 is with Qualcomm Snapdragon 800, supports LTE 4G/WCDMA/GSM
so many version....
the mexican version with telcel is n900w8, ad stated in tecel official page

YES, it is a huge difference for some people like me, who use the note's camera for slow motion footage and 4K resolution videos, because not all of us watch the videos only on the note, but also on a 4K screen. (or using a screenshot of a 4K video as an image -> editing in photoshop etc)
So i think we would like to know the detailed specs and differences of course. In 2 years there will only be 4K displays on sale for TVs and computer screens.
According to: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_3-review-996.php
Video recording:
N9005: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
N9000: [email protected]
N9005: Quad-core 2.26 GHz Krait 400 CPU, Adreno 330 GPU; Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset
N9000: Quad-core 1. 9GHz Cortex-A15 & quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7, Mali-T628 MP6 GPU; Exynos 5420 chipset
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (the Snapdragon 800 edition) premiers 2160p video capture, more commonly referred to as UHD 4K or just 4K. It translates to videos of 3840 x 2160 resolution, or in other words, four times the resolution of 1920 x 1080 FullHD clips. The latter is also available on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in standard 30 frames per second mode along with the smooth [email protected] video recording.
Note that in 4K video shooting you can't use Dual Shot mode and doesn't allow stills capture during recording, while in 1080p recording you can snap full-res 8 MP 16:9 aspect images.
30 fps FullHD videos carry the bitrate of around 16 Mbps, while 60fps movies take about 30Mbps. Audio is captured at 122 Kbps with a sampling rate of 48 kHz with 2 channels (read stereo). The more interesting 2160p video recording mode carries a very high 47 Mbps bitrate (almost three times that of 1080p videos) for the same 30 fps framerate. Audio is recorded with a bitrate of 123 Kbps with the same 48 kHz sampling rate.
During 1080p video recording you can zoom up to 4x times with the Galaxy Note 3 retaining the same quality up to 2x zoom (because the camera is capable of the double 2160p resolution). Beyond the 2x zoom, things start to downgrade rather quickly.

I have a SM N900, there's no N9000, Samsung phones used to have the model in thousands but this phone is simply N900 in the international Exynos version
I can film at [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected]; contrary to what you've heard.
And I'm using this phone in IUSACELL Mexico and it works perfectly, no problem whatsoever didn't even need to unlock or anything just inserted the SIM.

So it might be the phone itself?? have you tried to use it with any other carrier?? i mean it supposes to work just inserting the chip, i have bought plenty of international samsungs and this is the first time I got that type of issue
I'm in the US. How does one pick the "best" version of the SM-G935F from the tons of eBay sellers?
For example, this version lists the CPU as "Quad-core 2.3 GHz Cortex-A53 + quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A53", while this other version lists it as "Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo".
Both spec sheets appear copied from GSMArea some time ago (one of them still lists the phone as "Coming soon"). Many other listings list both Exynos and SnapDragon for the chipset.
When eBay sellers don't give much **** on what exactly phones they sell, and don't bother responding to questions, how do you ensure you get the phone you want, and which version of the phone is that?
If it's Global version, it should be Exynos.
935F is the global version with exynos processor.

My question was about the dual-core vs. quad-core.
Just look at the model number. SM-G935F is Exynos Octa-Core. I wouldn't buy or trust a seller that lists the processor differently.

Country / Region Cell Phone Provider Model Number Chipset
Canada BELL MOBILITY SM-G935W8 Exynos 8890

That's what I'm puzzled by: a bunch of eBay sellers have copy/pasted some spec sheet that looks like this:
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge SM-G935F (FACTORY UNLOCKED) 5.5" QHD, 32GB
PLATFORM OS Android OS, v6.0 (Marshmallow)
Chipset Exynos 8890 Octa
CPU Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo

One of those sellers is never-msrp, which I've seen recommended here on the forum.

Yeah that's wrong, it should be:

Shouldn't matter which one you buy you can flash any region firmware on it
Anyone can tell me all G950FD Duos model is made with Exyonos chipset or can be with Snapdragon as well? Saw an ebay a lot of G950FD model, on specification listed as with Snapdragon chipset. I tought G95XFD is International unlocked model with Exynos, it is true?
Yep, should be Exynos
As far as I know Snapdragon is sold in USA and China due to the fact those countries use CDMA and Qualcom has patents on this. Everybody else, who uses GSM only has Exynos. USA does not have dual SIM models, but China probably have dual SIM on some models, so I say it's possible to have Snapdragon with dual SIM, but I'm not in China so have not seen one myself.
Yes. Exynos

My company will sell that model for official carrier bundle, and yes, it would be exynos,
Snapdragon is only for north america region afaik
