Canadian Variant G900W8 own forum? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had the note 3 and we didn't have our own forum but Tmobile roms works well with our phones due to ATT having the boot loader locked problem.
Looks like our variant keeps the unlocked boot loader and download booster which was taken out in other models. Which forum can we look to for custom roms when they start popping up? I hope we can get away with the international snapdragon version seeing how that was out earlier.
EDITED 4-24-2014
We dont need our own forum because we can flash other variants except SM-G900H
Flashing SM-G900H Can cause all sorts of problems including brick because its the octacore version not Qualcomm.
I have flashed F and T base roms just fine.

I just got my device. Wondering what forum to use too.

There never seems to be a forum for the Canadian verisons.
Since you have the phone already, do you know what LTE bands the Canadian model variant has?

US Cellular has the same problem. I think sprint is what is most compatible with ours with a couple adjustments.

I beg to differ....
I had the s3, s4, note 2 and note 3 and Att and Tmobile roms always worked better with the right modem flash of course.

I was referring to the LTE frequencies it supports.
This trick works on the S4 so I think it should work on the S5. If you go to the dialer and input *#2263# it should open up the band selection menu. if you click on LTE band preference it should show all the LTE bands it supports.

Yeah its probably due to the Canadian version. I hope we get our own forum, it would make finding roms and other things a lot easier instead of diggong through the american device forums.

True, but the s3 got merged with AT&T section, so maybe the same with the s5.

I installed the update, using KIES. No obvious difference, like you said.

One more vote for a separate section or at least a merged one if our S5 is compatible with another carrier like the S3 was with AT&T, stuff is getting hard to find .

This could be the result from what they've learn from the previous SGS I nightmare when it comes to update all the variants
just wondering, and going off topic, which Galaxy S Variant besides the I9000, i mean like in the USA
would be the best there is?
Vibrant
Captivate
and the others i can't remember names right now...
which one would be the best? I think Samsung may go into THAT carrier with the original phone, maybe, just maybe.
I really do hope its left untouched. Updates will come quicker since it was the variants of the original galaxy s that were getting slow updates cause of the carriers.

Well, the Vibrant sold the most out of all the variants in the US (over 1 million) and the Vibrant was also the closest to the i9000 in terms of appearances and internals.
Hopes its real cuz my vibrant is screwed an i am looking for phone an this is top on list
nice
Looks like a nice phone.
Really wish T-Mo would rethink this whole ATT merger thing...they could easily rise as the 3rd/2nd biggest US Carrier behind Verizon seeing all these phones that are going to/could be released for T-Mo.
Vibrant hands down. T Mobile removed the least amount of functions from stocl os and did not put to much bloatware in there. My wige has captivate and its junk compared to my vibrant

I think they are getting the Snapdragon S4 version as I believe they have an LTE rollout there as well? I could be mistaken.
Still, this is going to frustrate those who have the standard international edition, I can imagine.
Then again, Samsung is a Korean company, so I guess they're showing their locals some love.
here goes a dumb question maybe:
will the korean one work in europe?
I know it`s korea only, but if i buy it from there...will it work here?

I think Korea uses one 3G band the same as Europe at 2100.. but everything else is different.
If it takes a U-SIM, then you should be able to use it in Europe but only with 3G.
(i think this is correct.. I had a look into this too because I wanted to get a few phones from Korea)
This the setup I am hoping the Note 2 will have also

Sorry guys, but one website says this with no proof whatsoever and you all believe it?
I'm not saying it definitely isn't true, but stop complaining about it until we get official confirmation!
If this is actually gonna happen, this could be well good. If the baseband processor is the same then it might be possible to flash the baseband with the EU firmware to make it fully compatable with EU 3G bands.
We'll need to wait and see what the internal hardware is first.
Im hoping this will be a goer.

Two things have been confirmed though. Korea is getting LTE with an Exynos as the research and development was with their 4G LTE when they developed the phone.
Now 2gb of ram is the question I guess.
If it becomes true (4 cores + 2gb), wondering what will be the bettery performance... I guess, will drain at least, a little bit faster than the other versions.

LOL.. not fair, kidding... samsung could make that for the US i think, except that it would only be compatible with probably AT&T, it would be unfair for other carriers so they didn't do it.. just guessing
I'm wondering if these sites are just getting it wrong, because the model of the Note that was released in Korea had LTE and it ended up using the Snapdragon instead of the Exynos. I think that a bunch of places reported it as being a 1.4Ghz Exynos though.
What the chance of korean LTE band working on US AT&T?

HTC One variants [U/UL/WL]

As you probably know, HTC One came out in a few variants. I described these different versions here and here. To sum up:
The important part is, that users with U variant (GSM only) can use custom ROMs based on UL (GSM/LTE) RUU. It is already confirmed by one user, who flashed custom ROM based on 1.28.401.7 m7_ul software on his m7_u unit. Don't be confused - this probably won't enable LTE support on your GSM unit. We are not yet sure if it's possible at all, but it's very likely that once we have S-OFF and SuperCID for HTC One, flashing entire RUU from m7_ul on m7_u device may enable LTE support (of course your network provider has to support LTE as well).
I will keep you posted once I have some more details.
Thanks goodman_east for sharing some info with me!
Very happy about this. With the one x here in the states we had a limited amount of ROMs due to the hardware variations. This is much better news.
Thanks Mike

Was it? As far as I know Tegra 3 never had integrated LTE modem and it was a separate component on AT&T One X+. I may be wrong.
So this means the ATT One and The HTC Dev Edition One, and the European are the same, PN0710000 right? That is great news!! European and US versions finally are identical!! I guess the Mods jumped to soon when creating the separate ATT One Forum.. The One X+ needed separating bad because hardware was different, yet they didnt. Now hardware is the same and they are separated..
I will probably be getting the HTC One from T-Mobile UK ia when they get it in stock. Rather than go with 4GEE, I decided to stick with T-Mobile 3G since the price difference probably doesn't justify it.
Would the phone that I probably would receive from T-Mobile be the UL model?

ah, right! Well, maybe it's correct then. For now I'm sure that m7_u can use m7_ul software. I don't want to make false assumptions, so let's wait until we know for sure what MID has U.S. AT&T or Verizon HTC One.
My AT&T per order says HTC PN07120, does that mean anything? Or are they all PN07120's?

Does the T-Mobile version support micro-SD? Says they support up to 32gb!?
Sigh. I thought we were passed this. I'm having a hard time caring though this time around. Not sure why.
If I were to guess, LG doesn't have the market share muscle to say no and AT&T insisted on installing it.

ATT comes standard 32gb, probably on T-Mobile too. No SD support on USA phone models from what i've read. Maybe T-Mobile offers a 16gb and 32gb model for some reason? Thought it ONLY came in 32gb?
Just remove these two files: found in /system/lib libiq_client.so and libiq_service.so
You need to be rooted one you remove these you can confirm whether the service is dining by downloading an iq checker in the play store. Remember it's the carriers not lg that included this.
Upon further testing phone FCS during a call if u remove these files...so will have to figure out whatelse needs to be done.
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk 4
On T-Mobile, at least for the One and S4, it asks whether you want to opt-in for Carrier IQ. I really don't see this as a huge deal but I mean I'm not against removing it either though.

Hi Fellow Canadians,
I don't understand why there is no separate section for Canadian users on XDA whereas for US every carrier gets their separate sections.
So lets get together here.
I have already booked/reserved my M8 with Rogers.
Share your reservations/thoughts and lets help each other.

No need for separate forums. Verizon and Sprint each need their own (CDMA), but AT&T and T-Mo don't need them since International roms will be compatible with those phones.

Yes but for Samsung as well, We, Canadians have different models, but still we have to find a place where we can get our information.
I have a G2 right now and I know how painful it is when we dont have a separate section here but we have a different device model that is D803.
Never mind we will use this.. eh..
And Turge, for the first time I have noticed that you are from Hamilton, have been using Viper since day one. We are neighbours
I'm going order the telus version and unlock it to use on wind Mobile should works says it has the necessary bands

Trust me.. the Canadian carriers don't bastardize their phones. There's nothing that would belong in a Canadian HTC One M8 forum that wouldn't apply to the rest of the world (except for Sprint/Verizon) except for the 3 APNs. :laugh:

I would recommend to first check the bands here http://www.rogers.com/web/link/wire...ductId_Detailed=ONEGRY&N=52+11+277+4294965972
and compare with Wind's AWS bands before buying.

That's true for HTC, LG and Samsung have some different approach.
Am hoping that I will get my phone by weekend as mobilesyrup mentioned.

No, from Rogers.
See the post here, it says Robellus will ship the orders to customers as early as before this weekend.

Trying to order from Bell, anyone else having issues? Also I use something like shipitto to get the dev edition, but there seems to be no sign of it on HTC's website....(Using a VPN to make sure I am seeing the right one)
EDIT: They are now saying it's a preorder on the bell's webstie. launch date of 19 april (fairly sure that's not true)
I dont know whats wrong with rogers but now am getting this.

What did your invoice say? I didn't see anything specific. Ordered with a contract.
