Is there a cwm recovery for I9006v ?
I bought in china, by the time I realise there is no Google app install. How do I get gapps?

Just search for Google play store apk and install it.
Make sure in security you allow unknown sources.

The google play store apk won't just install like most apps, it will just crash or stop working, this problem has been mention in other threads for other samsung phones from china and since this forum is international and most users are using the US, UK or international version phone, a custom rom may be hard to get by, you will get a better chance by searching through some of the chinese community forum.
good luck.
Hey, I'm thinking about buying the G9006v too. Will I be able to root and install a custom firmware?
I saw another post where someone who had a G900i was able to install g900f firmware. I am unclear as to the G900 versions and their compatabilities with other versions' roms

Well, I decided to try, just bought the G9006V and will watch for updates to CWM that cover it. Also, I'll check out Chinese forums later this week and see what what I can find.

from what i found there is already a root for g9006v, in the chinese forum my chinese is kinda bad so couldnt much of it. I can give u the links if u want.
To anyone who is curious about checking out a Chinese forum for this phone:
http://bbs.gfan.com/forum-1443-1.html
You're required to register to see pictures and post replies to see links. Most of the ROOT methods look pretty much the same as what is going on here so far, so I guess they all trip knox. (I haven't figured out how important or unimportant that is ...)
I tried the following post:
http://bbs.gfan.com/android-7340315-1-1.html
and was able to use Odin to flash CWM and then get SuperSU. SuperSu said it disabled Knox, but when I checked (Vol-+Home+Pwr) knox has been tripped. Oh well.
I also got really thrown off by one part of the above instructions, to enter CWM after you flash it with Odin you need to press Vol++Home+Pwr not volume down.

Caution!
If this ROM is anything like the S2, the bootloader will be locked, if you download it, check
it carefully or you will lock your phone.

Mainland Chinese ROMS have different changelogs, some recent regulations require locks and there are differences in some of the
components in the ODIN package (larger) could be something to watch you.
I bought a note 2 while in China, and then found there are no Google apps or market installed.
Can I just simply root and then flash say a UK Rom and I will be away, or do you mean that I might/won't be able to do this?
I really regret buying without doing more research about this at the moment.

Any news on that?
Is there a way to install play store?
is there a way to use a different language? (only chinese and english default)
I am looking for custom roms for the SM-N9108v which is similar to the N9109,N9100, N9106 models. All of which are Chinese variants.
Has anyone here enough Chinese language skill to have had much success finding RoMs that might be suitable?
Thanks in advance.
SM-N9108V
Hi there. Where did you buy the SM-N9108V from? What are they going for? I am looking for one but want to install a rom with play store on it. Will it work?

I skim over 52Samsung.com quite often as there's lots of work going on over there. However, you donate to become a member (which gives access to download links) so even if there was something available I'd only be able to link to something you can't get, unless you're in China and have also donated.

I take it you're in China since you're asking about the specific China Mobile carrier locked, single SIM model number.
Most obvious place to go is your local China Mobile store. Or jd.com and Amazon.cn also have them. Should be ¥5,199 more or less.
You don't need a custom ROM with Play Store pre-installed. Just use the root guides on here and flash Gapps yourself - it's pretty simple. And I hope you have a VPN!

1. Kinghu, thank you for the link. I will look into it and donations for it when work slows down a bit. Right now, I'm semi/happily making do with the Apex launcher for the next week, but I am itching to trial a custom RoM. I envy multi lingual users a bit. Must be great feeling to have access to the Chinese sites and to know which you can trust.
2. I know that I'll be staying China Mobile for at least a year - hence I selected N9108v - it is good advice that people make certain to get the right one. I am now using 4G for the first time after not having it on my HK purchased N9005.
3. Any more sites I can investigate - particularly like the MUIU RoM for Note3.
Cheers.
I think it'll be a while before full custom ROMs like MIUI appear just because the phone is so new.
My last Note was the dual SIM Note 2 (7102) and there were only really modded TouchWiz (stock) ROMs. Some were quite left-field!
Might be different though if you've a single SIM phone. I guess we all just wait and see.

Waouh ! The 32go variant
Same specs as N9100 except rom space
No need custom rom.
Option 1
You could try flashing N9100 HK variant via Odin. It has Google play
Please backup before (in case of problem you can roll back to your original rom)
Be aware : it could break your device
Option 2
install custom recovery (cwmr or twpr) then flash latest gapps package (search in xda)
Root is not needed for having play store

Yeah I have tried the gapps several times. I have twpr on it now. I am building a android test bed for working on roms. Good to know about it being the same as the n9100. I will see what I come up with. Another thing that is wierd is it will not update so when they finally release the andriod 5 for it I will have to do something. From what I saw the other day it has already bean leaked.
I am never going to buy another Samsung while I live in China. N9108v - thank you for the lesson in how to make an awesome phone but-truck useless...

Hey, just wanted to say, I have the SM-N9108v. I rooted using Chainfire's CF-Auto root, worked great. Installed CWM recovery, worked great. I use X-note rom and it's great but for a few minor glitches. About to redo the entire thing using TWRP recovery and try another rom. The only thing you have to watch out for is the radio. China Mobile 4G LTE is a propietary frequency and if your radio changes you won't be able to use the 4G signal. China Unicomm uses the same regular frequencies as some north american carriers.
Just passing on what I've found out through trial and error.

Seems that you are the right person to get me out of my troubles with this phone. I cannot have proper 3G functionality (i am not mentioning 4G since for sure it will not work outside china). How can i load other modem-radio file on this phone and see if i can fix it?

Well, I'm sorry to say that it's impossible to work, since the variant degaslte (which contains connectivity, 4G aka LTE) has another processor, so it will not work, you will not be able to install it, the processor of the T230 variant is the Marvell PXA1088, while the T235 (LTE VERSION) has the processor exynos. That is why the development of roms takes a long time for this variant

So ya i am new to droid but really these threads are totally miffed, like whats the deals with twrp? From what i can tell i have to load 2.7.8.4 or under then i can upgrade to 3.1.1.1degaswifi, or do i have to unlock bootloader first, these dang threads just do not explain properly, i have wasted we3k read7ng them, i swear i feel l am dealing with the government circlejrkm one thread says root first ,when i get to end it reveals if you already have twrp, so i goto twrp and read and those threads lead back if you have root and/or prior twrp install ! what gives even the twrp main website is jqcked with the prior install gunk.
Oh and i just love the thread that starts with " I am going too assume you have abd bootloader unlocked allready" REALLY
So can you maybe point me to a proper guide so i can get this paperweight too qctually work because it is my only inet access rite know and the stock rom is horrible

FYI, paperweight in Android terms, means, it is a hard bricked device. The Tab 4 don't have a locked bootloader. Any TWRP for SM-T230 / NU, will work to install my Android 4.4.4 ROM, https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/sm-t230-nu-unofficial-cm-11-based-t3648887.
Secretwolf,
Thanks for the fast reply, for me any device thats basically useless is a paperweight, but i"ll keep in mind that ya"ll use the term meaning for bricked.
So i am going togo buddies today and try to load the lastest twrp, d3gaswifi1100.img . I just cant afford major issues as i dont have easy access to pc to fix it. Seems you and others have been using the eur version is that because the usa doesnt work ?As i am in usa and planned on using that version, i take the eur with incase,
Well gotta give up today as just tryin to type with thing is horr7ble , and i have todo a restore once a week just so the browser will load inet. This keyboard is horrid

Your welcome.
So I have not been able to obtain this firmware but figured I'd share to see what you ladies/gents could figure out.
http://www.romup.com/search?version=G950USQU1AQCF
Also there is a thread in general discussion and questions section regarding an All_OYN_G950USQU1AQC8 firmware.
idk, seems pretty fishy to me, every I link I see is to pay to download sites for this file. You would think that there would be somewhere online where its free. Probably a bogus download.
lots of scams out there
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers Legacy app
I actually paid for a damn firmware this morning All_OYN_G950USQU1AQC8 and received the download from sams-eng.com . Later however I found it for free. Oh well. Haha.

Can you link it please! Where did you find the free one?
I found the free one for the 955 and 950 i was able to find the unlock bootloader option through it not sure if it will work. Was more interested in the boot.img
Not saying it isn't a scam, but romup is actually a fairly reputable site. People posting leaked firmware all the time straight from the factory. A few other Asian sites like this one have some juicy stuff, not just for Exynos/other unlocked loader models. So don't discourage it, translate it and see what they have to say and maybe even test it. I personally don't want to take the risk with my phone but someone kinda has to. Anyways, done with my little rant.
Would this Engboot be good for snapdragon variants? I remember the S7 Edge had a locked bootloader, but you could still atleast root it

Im working on this right now. Give me a little bit had a kid last year so im trying my best to get this done right now while i have time.
Wait so do you have a copy of that firmware? I can't obtain that one bc I have no way of paying in yuan.
Also is there a way to flash a firmware where root is natively in the firmware? I always thought we had to unlock the bootloader and root and then flash recovery. Unless it was the recovery that always tripped knox.
Hi Br3w3r,
I just wanted to say thanks and ask you a little about how you coerce these engineering firmwares to allow root mode. Do you reverse engineer it? Just curious.
Found a newer version of ODIN and enabled the grayed out buttons. Maybe it could help?

I have purchased a copy of the firmware posted by the OP, although it was bought off of a different website. This is a factory binary, that has SElinux as permissive, OEM unlock says it unlocks bootloader, etc

hi i have a note 3 sm-n9008s which was left here by one of my exchange students im trying to find a way to put a new zealand rom on it but when i search the sammobile site with the model number i just get versions for china and im assuming that they all dont have any gapps would it work if i used the sm-n9005 version for my country thanks for your help
The phone was made for mainland China; therefore, Odin can't flash anything other than mainland China ROMs.

is there a way to add gapps to it though or a custom rom
Maybe through a custom ROM but that may not be enough.
Phones sold in mainland China do not have all Google apps, especially the Play Store.

root with Magisk, install custom rom, install smartpack kernel manager, install a root explorer and look for init.d folder, add captive portal fix to the init.d folder and set the permissions to 0755, then in smartpack go to the init.d and click on the portal fix, select execute, after that go to airplane mode for a couple of seconds and turn it off again, after this you should be able to access the google servers.
Good luck
