[Q] difference between n900w8 and n9000-n9005

Hey everyone.
I'd like to ask what's the differences between the n900w8 and the n9000-n9005?
I live in Canada and I would like to buy the note 3 but the only model offered here is the n900w8 and I don't know if there is any support here or i can flash different roms/kernels etc.
If I can't I will order an n9005 from Europe or USA.
Thanks!

About N900W8
it s one of the LTE edition of Note3
it means thr s same support for it like N9005
But thr might be difference between date of update or something like this
but kernel version and ROM will be same unless firmware or some minor update
So don't worry about buying it
:good:

If it's the snapdragon model then it may be possible to use 9005 roms, I wouldn't bank on it too much though as there is obviously differences in kernels, modem and firmware though.
Has anyone tried flashing 9005 roms on 900w8 ?
Yes cause hardware is same but u will have same kernel but rom maybe different

Reception/Modem/Baseband

Hello,
I recently upgraded from Xperia Arc S to Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505.
I bought my device from Hong Kong, with HK firmware. After I opened the package I put my SIM inside,
the reception was not very good. I was instructed by the company to use GSM only since there is no
LTE network in Israel as of today.
I flashed a couple of ROMs since and today I am on MIUI v5 which is my favorite, the reception remains
the same in all ROMs, quite bad compared to my old Xperia Arc S.
I was wondering about basebands and modems, I have been watching those two names floating around
the forums quite a bit and I never got around to playing with those.
So my questions are as follows:
1. Is there a different between modem and baseband or are these two just different words that refers to the same thing?
2. Does changing a baseband/modem can help get better reception?
3. If the answer to 2 is yes, which one should I get?
Thanks,
Oded
Yes modem/baseband are the same thing. Go to SamMobile website Google it, then go to the firmware section, choose the S4 find your carrier and see the latest rom for your carrier in the file name will be some letters and numbers like XXNA5 etc. This will give you a base to start with. Or tell me your operator and I can take a look.

Thanks for the quick reply. How do I find out which firmware I need to download? Israel is not in the list. My carrier is called Orange. http://orange.co.il/
behind the battery it says:
GT-I9505
SSN: -I9505GSMH
RATED
Made by...
Imei...
S/N...
EDIT:
You didn't answer if the incorrect baseband can cause bad reception... it sounds to me like it does but I just want to make sure.
I also noticed that when I reboot my device it goes back to WCDMA only automatically so everytime I reboot/power off I need to reset it to GSM only using *#*#4636#*#*
BUMP

1. Same thing .
2. Yes.
3. You can check it from here that Base from your country/Provider . And you can download it from here
The problem is that Israel is not on that list, I think because we don't have LTE network and my device is LTE.
My carrier is using GSM network only.
Israel don't sell the I9505 officially, they have the I9500 available from your carriers.
Looking at the I9500 with Orange the latest I9500 modem is: I9500JKUEMJ9
Obviously do not flash the I9500 modem but you can try XXUEMJ9 from the I9505 instead.
From here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
Download the modem and flash via Odin. You can any of the I9505 modems. Just try until you get a good one, and as for LTE it doesn't matter in the network settings you will obviously be choosing 3G option instead.

I see, well, it didn't work, I flashed about 7 different modems and I still get bad reception indoors and good reception outdoors.
I will try to test other SIMs of other carriers on this device to see if reception improves.
Thank you very much for you help!
4.4.2
Anyone knows which modems can I flash in a stock i9505 4.4.2 rom?

Really? I ask this question because when flashing stock 4.4.2 I had to flash a specific modem otherwise it wouldn't work. If I flash another modem different from FNA5 won't it cause problems in the ROM?

Depends what bootloader your on, I'm assuming your on the new bootloader so you need to flash both the LTE and GSM modems. I'm on a GE 4.4.2 rom and old bootloader running on an older modem and not got any issues. Try it and see what happens you can always flash another after or go back to a 4.4.2 modem.

OK thanks a bunch. If not too much trouble can you point me to a list of the modems you speak of? And is there anywhere where it's detailed how to flash both modems? When I changed modem in the previous ROM's I only had to flash one.

This thread has all the info you need:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
A small tip to whom ever is reading this: If you have reception problems just go to someone with the same phone model and just write down the information in about phone section such as: baseband, core, build etc so you know which one works 100% if your phone is the same model.
Anyways, nikzDHD, I9505XXUEML6_MODEM worked best, I flashed 90% of the modems... took me forever :/

Note N900A

Hi all,
I just bought N900A, but I am a bit confused.
What is what. I am in Europe. And my N900A have 4.3 version and it says there is no update.
In Europe I see usually 9000 & 9005 models.
Also, I see that N900A have different usb charger than I am used (some usb 3.0 charger)....Is this same on all Note 3?
What is the "exynos" version ?
Can anyone tell me how and which rom should I install for europe.
Give me as much as possible informations as you can guys
I am not a new in flashing or rooting, but I need a starting point
A starting point.
Ok. I understand. But is it possible to install ROM from the EU models on this N900A model ?
I see forum is splitted, but I really would like to have EU rom, and not the US one

No idea - as you said yourself, this isn't the right forum, so there's not much point asking here. You need to go here.

Try to answer some of your questions
- N900A is Note 3 for AT&T network. While N900 and N9005 are international models. N900 uses Exynos chipset from Samsung, while N9005 and N900A use Snapdragon chipset from Qualcomm.
- You can install firmware from EU models (N9005 model)
- Because you are now in the oversea region, you may not get the OTA update. You can, however, download the stock firmwares manually and flash using Kies or Odin. You can check for the latest firmware by installing Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app --> open and press Menu --> select 'Firmware Browser'.
So, all N9005 roms are ok for.my N900A? I am right not on 4.3
What are your experiences. Should I upgrade to 4.4.2?
Not all. AFAIK do NOT use firmware for N9005 Hong Kong (TGY) and Taiwan (BRI) regions. Other regions should be ok.
I personally still on stock 4.3.
I want to use europe version. Not the one for us 4.3 or 4.4.2 however. If it works

Hmm..I just now saw that you wrote two times same model...:S
N900A has a locked bootloader, which means NO CUSTOM RECOVERY OR KERNELS.

No, you can't flash a N900A rom on a N900P! You'll brick your phone.

N9005 Roms on N900V??

Hello, will I be able to flash note 3 international variant n9005 roms into the n900v and expect it to boot up and work well? Any help is appreciated.
Put some effort into it and use the search function !
OP this is not the forum for your phone .

One of my note 3 devices is a n900v and i tried most of the customs roms initially made for n9005 without any problem (AryaMod, Phronesis, temasek, Purify, RR ....) . But I must specify that I use a GSM network outside the united states.
Before flashing, i have to check an important thing : Some developers use the "assert" function to restrict the installation of their rom to certain variants, so i make sure to add mine.
Last thing, several roms comes with a proper kernel for each variant. Otherwise, you have to flash the proper kernel for n900v just after flashing the rom. And that's why you must read carefully each OP.
