if you mean the N5100 model, then yes, it has a phone

I've been trying to find the model number it Will be telus or bell Canada model..
I expect that they are the same or similar.
Thank you for the info.

Can't give you a difinitive answer one way or the other, but I notice that the one on the bell website is missing the ear speaker that my n5100 has. (It's a little silver strip of a speaker just above the samsung logo on the front) Not sure if this means it won't have the phone dialer etc., but it does mean that if you can make phone calls with it, they would have to be over a headset or on speakerphone. I can confirm that my n5100 with a bell sim can make phone calls just like a big (massive) phone.

Yes the N5100 has a working phone.
It is a little big to place on your ear but bluetooth works fine.

Well they show it on the bell website as lte. All I'm really saying is that the one on the bell website is definitely NOT a n5100

I believe that the Bell and Tellus models use the same frequencies as the USA AT&T models, which have the phone app and speaker removed. If you want telephony capability, make sure you get the N5100, which will run HPSA but not LTE. The phone is readily available on Amazon and Ebay.

Yes the n5100 is wifi and 3g, the n5110 is wifi only, and the note n5120 is the lte 4g model. Ive just got my note 8 5100 im using it on vodaphone uk and im loving it. It does give me hand ache on long calls from stretching my hand to hold the phone, but i dont make that many calls. Its great being able to do everything with one device im LOVIN this tablet/massive phone!
Im gonna sell my note2 and ipad4 as they wont get used now i have this.

So the lte model has the phone app removed. .has anyone tried installing it.I read someplace they got the tab working as a phone. .

Im not 100% on this but im guessing the note 8 5120 lte/4g, supports calls just like the 3g version (n5100). With the note 2 there are 2 different versions a 3g note2 and a 4g lte note2 on the EE network... correct me if im wrong and it might vary in different countries im in the uk. But im guessing its the same with the note 8. A 3g version with calls (n5100), a wifi version(n5110), and a 4g version with calls(n5120)

I think you're correct, but I think there's another model, the at&t lte (sgh-i467?) This might be the one on the bell site. Not sure if it supports voice calls.

Iirc the tab needed a different modem to get voice calls working? I don't think it was as easy as just installing
the phone apk.

I have spent 3 hours on the phone talking to telus and bell.. neither one can tell me the model number of the galaxy note 8 they sell. No one has it in stock to look at..
I Will call Rogers next...
This is painful
Thank you for the help

I can't answer definitively about what model Tellus or Bell sells, but the sgh i467 (ATT's LTE Note 8) definitely does not have telephony capability. I've seen it, and it does not make phone calls natively.

My 5120 which will arrive this week supports voice calls.
Galaxy Note N7000 XXLT6 Xposed + HelloWorld 1.3.7b + N7000BDVLS7 on Telstra

Ok the n5120 has telephony and LTE. The OP is specifically interested in Canada. I'm pretty sure- correct me if I'm wrong, the n5120's bands are not optimized for the USA. Are you saying that it will work well (LTE and HDSPA speeds) in Canada?
Sent from my GT-N5100 using xda app-developers app

Lte will not work, so save your money and get 3g version. Also Canadian model traditionaly is att + M (note my signature) , otherwise identical, so I guess any if Canadian providers will sell you lte data tab only.

[Q] Unlocked Tmo Note 3 on Verizon? any chance?

I currently have active Verizon line, and an unlocked T-mobile Galaxy Note 3. Is there any possible way to get the Note 3 worked on Verizon? it's SM-N900T, and i can see it supports CDMA also.
Thanks

No, Verizon won't activate it

It may work, but it may require running VZW kernels or radios. Same hardware though, so there is likely a way.

[Q] Does note 3 N9005 work on Tmobile 4G?

hi,guys!
I want to buy a samsung galaxy note3 N9005,and i'm using Tmobile now.
But i don't know does it compatible to Tmobile 4g/HSPA+ newtork?
i saw in negri electronics,they said it doesn't work in tmobile's 4G.
So can you guys tell me about that? does note 3 N9005 work in Tmobile's 4G?
Thanks a lot.

I thought I read somewhere that the processor is comparable with all current LTE bands and all you had to do was flash a T-Mobile modem.
Don't quote me on that though because I don't want to be responsible for a broken note 3. Try using search on xda or ask in the T-Mobile note 3 forum. I know the info is around here somewhere.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

It will work except for LTE, and you might be able to enable the LTE by flashing a T-Mo modem. I have the N900T with an N9005 ROM and it works great, still with T-Mo modem. N9005 ROM doesn't have the LTE indicator but if it says 4G that means LTE.

[Q] Will Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Work In the UK ?!

I am a UK resident and I wish to purchase a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. It's quite expensive in the UK although I was wondering if I bought it from the US, due to the currency conversion rate, it'll come out cheaper (I've previously bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) from the US and the overall cost still came out cheaper if had I bought it from here)
My main concern is that will the phone still work here in the UK I.e will I still be able to get calls and will my existing sim card still work (I have no problem with getting it unlocked) ?! I was asking because of the different carriers and antennas and what not. I am not a person uses LTE as my current tariff doesn't support it so I have no problem with that being like the deciding factor. I'm currently on the 3 carrier in the UK. Thank You

I'm not fussed with warranty as I tend to take care of my devices plus if it allows me to get it cheaper, Im happy

Bought my n9005 on amazon.co.uk from amazon directly, not any third party sellers. Got the european model, was a decent price too.

Don't H3G use different frequencies? I know H3G phones were a pain in the butt a while ago due to their oddball requirements, but I would imagine flashing the H3G btu firmware would resolve any "issues" as it would include their modem.
Am I barking up the wrong tree here?

As long as you don't buy it locked to verizon, sprint or at&t then it will work fine, because those networks are cdma I believe. And as the UK doesn't have any cdma networks, only gsm, the device won't work.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Att is not cdma.
Yes, the ATT note will work on 3G and 3G+ networks for your carrier in the UK. 3 has no GSM (2G) and only uses the 3G 2100 band. The ATT note 3 has the following 3G bands: 850/1900/2100MHz

There are threads on here about region lock. You have to insert the 'territory' correct sim card for 3-5 mins and then lock will be removed. ou can get it removed by ringing Samsung or you can root and remove it that way.
PS... It would appear that you didn't get a clear answer on Android Central Either!

To the op, if you are not fussed about the LTE, then Note 3 from ATT or T-mobile will work on 3G in the UK. As mentioned previously, do not buy from Verizon, Virgin, etc as they are CDMA phones and will not work in UK.
Another option is to buy from amazon USA if you are currently in the US. Get the International version.

You must be in USA because you need to use an American Sim card first so that the region lock will be removed but I could be wrong. Whereanouts are you in UK? For maybe 50 quid worth, I would just buy feom UK. Its not worth the gamble and hassle for me

Put serious value on the warranty on a Note3 .. its not quite such a bullet proof phone as a note 2.
Also I got one here in UK at a great price just a week after launch by getting it on Voda contract then unlocking it for EE use. There must be some cheap deals in UK now surely.

I'll give it some good thought although I can't seem to find any good deals and I'm not exactly the wealthiest person so I'I'll take any cheap option can get, I'm already on a SIM only contact so I just want to purchase the phone by itself

[Q] SM-N910U

I just bought a galaxy note 4 SM-N910U
I'm trying to figure out if it supports LTE in Canada (Rogers)
I've read conflicting sites that say it can do LTE and some other sites that say it won't.
Whats the verdict on this?
