ok, so here's my condition.
i got my note 3 from saudi arabia, and brought it here in india. now the problem is the the same which is common to most of us here. the region lock thingy. so my note 3 is on mj7 firmware. now what i need to know is that is it possible, that i install xnote 7.0 and will get past the region lock thingy. or is there any other way ?
i have read that cf region lock away isnt compatible with the mj7 firmware. so please give me some advice.

Try it and see, 99% of the time it does work.
Hey everyone,
I live in Turkey and I bought my N9005 from Germany (Saturn-I think it is DBT version)
I contacted samsung.de and they provided unlock code for region lock.
and it is officially region unlocked.
I've been waiting for kitkat update for DBT version but nothing came online yet.
So here is the question,
What happens to my "unlock", if I flash poland or any other FW via Odin to my N9005?
will I need to contact samsung.de for a new unlock code , which takes 10-15 days to get one.
or it will stay region unlocked after Odin flash of any FW (european)
Thanks in advance for the answers.
Hello all,
I own a Galaxy Note 3 which has an Orange branded rom (France carrier), and I'm thinking of flashing a stock unbranded rom of France.
I'd like to know if there is going to be a region lock problem and also if the knox will be triggered.
You see I'm living in Greece and not in France. (If the region matters) ?
Thanks in advance.
No and No to both questions.
You can flash an official unbranded ROM over an official branded ROM. If you stay in the same region (EU) or even more safely, the same country, then this won't trigger KNOX.
Just grab the newest XEF and you'll be fine.
(I get people to do this with TNL and PHN on a daily basis)
Hi Guys,
I have bought here in Israel a i9505.It in in 4.3
Just root it and installed CWM.
If i look at the box, i can see that it is coming from Europe (i don t have the sticker with region lock but i have a list of countries...)
I can''t know if it was region lock or not but it working with no issues with my Israeli SIM card
My question : if i upgrade to an official 4.4.2 ROM, will it be still region unlock or will it be lock ?
Thanks dor your help
Have a great day
Dan
Hello everyone.
I bought n9005 from UK and it has SIM lock or region lock
It has 4.3 ROM
Baseband MJ4
build MJ6
I was trying to use Chainfire's app to unlock region but it doesnt work.
It's said that the app works on Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 (MI7, MJ1, MJ3 firmwares).
Here's the question.
What am I supposed to do in this situation?
Downgrade it to MI7/ MJ1/ MJ3 or upgrade to use this method http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-note-3-how-unlock-sim-free-1442071
On this ROM this code "*#197328640#" doesnt work.
Thanks in advance for help.

Almost certainly it has SIMlock or is blacklisted - check the IMEI with *#06# and if it does not match the one from under battery then you can most likely sell it for parts, if the IMEI is OK I think the safest way is to buy an unlock code.
What does mean that phone is blacklisted?
Software IMEI has 17 digits
Under the battery there is 15 digits.
The only difference is that there is no "/01" at the end.
