I have a HK 16GB Note 3 coming my way in the post.
I can see lots of posts about unbricking it, but am wondering if I can save some pain by partitioning the device correctly in advance or if there are any variations of ROMs available that cater specifically to the HK 16GB version?
Any advice welcome.
TIA
Alex
As it turned out cm11 hlte was a straightforward install.

Hi Awesome ppl of xda. I'm from Australia and looking at getting note 4, when looking on Samsung's Au site the model number is sm-910G which has the same network bands as the sm-910f. I would like to root n use custom roms to fix the sd card. Iv looked in the SnapDragon development forum as see that sm-910f has few roms already. So want to know would I be able to flash a sm-910f Rom on a sm-910g device. I'm new to Samsung but been using adb and fastboot from HTC desire, HTC one x to One Plus one. So not a total nOOb. Cheers guys.

-F- ROM is for the 910F, -G- ROM for the 910G
So NO: you can't flash -F- ROM on a -G- model! Logical...

Stick to G mate. Or get N910U exynos model. It's fine for Australia. I'm rocking it right now
cheers guys, I'll just get the sm-910U due to being a lot easer to get online and roms are starting to come out for it.
Hi guys
can I install custom roms for 32gb N9005 to 16gb n9005 note 3?
I know i cannot install the 32gb variant official firmwares using odin because the 16gb note 3 has different partition compared to the 32gb variant.
so anyone who tried installing 32gb n3 custom roms to 16gb variant? because AFAIK custom roms only modifies the /system of the phone.
No, you absolutely can't. I did that, unknowingly I tried to flash a 16 GB ROM to my 32 GB unit and it failed while it was trying to flash ext4 img or something, at around 80% progress if Odin is to be believed (it should).
I want to know too, I hv the 16GB international Hong Kong version, seems I can't flash other countries' official ROM, but want to know if I can flash Custom Rom like CM12 or those built base on Stock Rom.

Hey guys I have a Canadian Note 4 and am unsure how to go about rooting it. I have rooted and installed custom roms on various android devices in the past. This time though I am not seeing N910W-8 around the forums very much. Am I simply not seeing something or is my phone model not supported?
Links to the guides and such is all I really need. Any further information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a ton XDA!
Look in the T-Mobile threads.. the W8 is interchangeable with the tmo.. Just need to flash a W8 kernel before you boot.
Hi guys, I have an Note 4 sm-n910k, with Exynos Octa 5433 (running marshmallow 6.0.1). I currently have a Korean stock Rom, and I'd like put a custom Rom on it (CM 13 ideally). I looked around, and it seems that all the roms are for the other variations of this phone, but not the "K" version. What's the main difference in the models that stops me from installing one of variant roms, as all I can see is that they have a different baseband, or can I basically use any of the 32gb Exynos variant roms, as the hardware seems to be the same. Failing that does anybody have a line on any good roms? Sorry for such a noob question, and thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
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...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-nemesis-refined-v3-5-n7port-t3587637
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.
