[Q] Unbranding Korean Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900S) - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I hope someone can help me with this. I got a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Korea (SM-N900S) and upgraded it to Android 4.4.2. It is branded as SK Telecom with software that I don't need but can't remove. Kies also displays update messages in Korean which I can not read, I was worried I do something wrong and mess up the device. It went safely but not sure this happens every time.
I need to remove the branding for both functional and cosmetic reasons and have a standard Note 3 Android, my questions are:
Is there a way to unbrand and remove the SKT booting screen and apps and instead have a standard unbranded official plain vanilla Note 3 version without triggering KNOX or conflicing with future updates from Kies?
Can I use a firmware from a different region of another submodel (SM-N900) without damaging the device or losing functionality like LTE?
Can changing the CSC to another region remove the branding?
Thank you in advance.

Hello, i have the same problem, an would appreciate if someone have a solution =)
Many Thanks in advance

[Q] Canadian Rogers galaxy note 4 become to bell version, plz help

:crying: Hi, guys, Thank You So Much to read this.
I m new to Android, and recently I made a mistake, I boot a third party rom without backup my original rom..
Then, something happened, I recovered my note 4 by Kies 3, choosing Firmware upgrade and initialization. I chose type into model number and S/N to recover it.
OMG, then, the phone has Bell's components, that made me shock. I have no idea how it happened that Rogers note 4 become to Bell note 4.
How I can recover my note4 back to rogers version?
I boot a new recovery, new kernel and third part rom in to my note4, then recovered by Kies 3.
I have no idea what i did that caused it.
Anyone can tell me how to recover the official Rogers note4?

[Q] Note 3 Exynos SM-N900 Issue

Hello everyone,
My Friend has a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900, which he bought from NewYork. He got it rooted and region unlocked in order to use it in India. It is on Android 4.4.2. Now the problem is that ,its touch response is not good(very very bad).Sometimes touches work ,sometimes they dont. Tested touch with a Multitouch app and found that it doesnot recognize all the touches and (touch) ghosting also occurs. Is there something that i can do ? or should i get it repaired from a Samsung Service Center(No Warranty)? Should flashing a new ROM works ?
A general doubt for me is whether i could flash Russian /Indian Lollipop ROM on this device, which is region unlocked and rooted?
Thanks in Advance.
Looks like hardware issue ?

Thank you
Another question, can I flash different region ROM on Note 3, if so suggest me a ROM stock, and can I flash lollipop Indian region ROM.?
I'm not so much into it... You can flash other region ROMs too I guess... Not sure though as there are variants!

Custom ROMS for Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910S, Korean Variant)

Hello,
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and although I definitely should've checked the model number I did not. My mistake. But I've come to realize that the phone is a Korean variant and as such I can't modify it and put custom ROMs on it - if you can, I'm not sure how.
I'm a novice on smartphones and putting custom ROMs on them, I've done it before on a Note 3 that I owned (Canadian variant).
Since there aren't any custom ROMs (that I can find) for the Korean variant... Is it possible I can somehow convert the phone to an international variant or perhaps force the process?
Thanks in advance.

Try this ROM...

I have an n910s too...
Tried almost all ROMS and this is the best one.
Good luck.
If you find a way to convert to international version please let me know how to.
Thanks.
Thank for the input but I'm going to be returning the phone and getting an international or Canadian variant, as I would like to use LineageOS on it or something similar. I don't want any ROMs that look or feel like TouchWiz.
