Hi guys.
I'm planning to buy Note 4 in my country, Turkey and they sell sth called N910CQ. I heard that they disabled 4G in that model. I'm not sure if it's about that or not because we don't have 4G here yet. My question is, is it ok to flash N910C stuff to N910CQ? I read that the only difference is CSC and I read that it's about Signals. Thank you.
I am using Note 4 N910CQ - Turkcell device running Russian Firmware (N910C). No issues at all. Device does support LTE unfortunately we don't have a LTE connection.
My phone's about screen says it's N910C not N910CQ

Oh great then! So we can flash kernels and roms for 910C. Do you know what are differences between C and CQ?
There is no differences between C and CQ. Q stands for Turkey nothing else. You can flash C rom to your device.
One thing you should pay attention is when you flash a C firmware instead of original CQ FW, model number shows N910C which makes easier to detect odin flashed firmware if you care about warranity. But anytime you can return to stock CQ with no problem.

Hi to all,
I've bought to a friend a "New" Note 4, which came from after-sales service, and it's an european Note 4 at first (N910F). One month later, I've discovered that the box which came with the Note is a box from a N910P (Sprint version).
One question : I've encountered issues with 4G Network in France (but I think its come from my place), but the question is not here : can, if it's a real N910P, I flash a N910F official ROM on it ?
If yes, I think i need to talk with my friend.
If no, it means that its only a 910F on a 910P box, isn't it ?
Thanks for your future answers, i'm worried.
The sticker under the battery will tell you which version it is. If you have issues with 4G, it could be carrier related or the phone is not the F variant. As the F covers all bands.
F and P roms are not compatible.

Thanks, its a N910F
Hello all I just recently purchased a Galaxy Note 4 and I'm trying to install lollipop via ODIN but it keeps failing I think partly because the bootloader shows up as N910T when the phone model is actually N910F european model that was bought in the UK obviously the phoned has been tampered with in the past and I would like to change the bootloader and baseband which are both N910T to N910F however the CSC shows up as N910FXXU1ANK4 i don't understand this?. Bootloader version is N910TUVU1ANJ7? the phone thinks it is the US T-Mobile Variant im guessing somebody screwed it up in the past? anyhow I need to be able to flash N910F 5.1.1 Lollipop to the phone but it always results in FAIL!(Auth) in Odin v3.0.9 .
Try to flash your stock rom

Try Flashing a stock N910F Kitkat firmware first.
Can you confirm the phone is actually N910F by removing the battery and checking the label?
Of if you are rooted install Samsung Phone Info app from the Google Playstore which might give more insight.

Hi it says n910f under the battery and the phone box says n910f,however Samsung info app says model n910f and bootloader n910t I have flashed 5.01 n910t to the phone and it worked however I have t-mobile bloat ware which I don't want. Is there a way to get everything to be n910f as my UK carrier works on this phone surely it cannot be a US T-mobile variant?

It can be possible, If the device is carrier unlocked the phone still contains some bands which work here in the UK, only Verizon and At&t are less likely to work. My bet is that the previous owner flashed a stock N910F based ROM on-top of a N910T variant. The best you can do is install a de-bloated ROM or remove the apps yourself.

I have the same problem but, I bought the device as new and box sealed everywhere is written 910F and was loaded with N910FXXU1COH4 and I decided to flash the new firmware N910FXXU1COJ3 now I'm stuck at bootloop.
Note: I consider my self a semi-expert but this situation is totally weird.
sorry for necroing this post but i have the same issue with my note 4..
says n910f everywhere (everywhere in the s/w and also on the sticker) but the bootloader is n910t..
all attempts to flash any n910f bootloaders/baseband/stock rom using odin results in emmc write error on aboot.
so is my device a fake n910f ?? (because the sticker says n910f while the phone is n910t bootloader)
or can i switch back to n910f bootloader somehow..

Your phone is masked with n910f but reality is you got n910t t.mobile note 4 and sadly you cannot convert to n910f.
Sticker is faked you have refurbished device.
Its very easy to fake any device even i can do it with root
You will also notice your knox is 0x1 when you go to download mode so it means that someone use root to fake entire device.
Return it now if you bought new with warranty.

Hey Trex, thanks for the reply..
yea it seems like it's a referb but i bought it used for a really good price and everything works with it.
It was such a headache the first day i got it trying to flash anything using odin and nothing worked because i kept downloading and flashing n910f files, I have a lot of experience with rooting/roms but this is the first time i actually didn't know what to do, until hours later when i noticed that in the bootloader it says n910T not F and then everything was good from there.
I won't be returning it as the n910t accepts the same roms as the n910f/g with datafix (i'm using aurora 3.1 for n910f with datafix and it's working perfectly), also the unit i got is like new with 0 scratches and with everything working great so there's that too..

The same thing happened to me 3 days ago, mine was a N910S flashed as a N910F. You're a bit more lucky than i was because the N910T is actually the same snapdragon variant as the N910F. I think the whole hardware parts might be identical. How is the battery life? Any battery drain issue? How much on screen-on-time do you get?

I have n910s also with n910c marshmallow rom and works good
I got screen on time about 4 hours
In my opinion n910s better then n910t/f because n910s/c comes with exynos octa 8core 64 bit processor but sadly no good roms available for n910s but if you use stock it works just good as n910c.
Ram management and games lot smoother and also no heating issues at all unlike snapdragon variants.

The one i had was seriously heating up
If you are using low class micro sdcard and battery that can also cause heating issues cuz apps struggle to run and processor need to run at higest frequency.
Do factory reset and try phone without micro sdcard and use for 1 or 2 days
And try another battery if you can.

Your device is n910t and faked with n910f.
Download link for latest marshmallow firmware below
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224395816
Extract and Flash this firmware using odin.
It will not sim lock your device but your phone will be completely n910t and there will be no many languages.i suggest if lollipop is working fine with you then don't update.there is nothing new in marshmallow and it will make your device slower then lollipop.
Thanks a lot tex888 ,,so what i understand the only bootloader that i can install is the Tvariant.
If i nstall a custom recovery can i install a custom rom fr language without problem.
if no i will keep my 5.0.1 with french language
So I was wondering if this is possible. My phone (A510F running lollipop 5.1.1) is locked to a carrier but I was planing on flashing an unbranded 6.0.1 (from Italy). Marshmallow will eventually come to my country but I just can`t wait anymore. Will flashing this firmware brick anything ?? I am well aware that the phone will remain locked to my carrier, since the lock has to do with the phone`s imei number, but is anything else going to be affected ? Anyone had a similar experience ? Your answers are really appreciated.
Bad idea, never flash unbranded firmware on a locked phone as it leads to all sorts of problems. Get turn phone unlocked first and then u can flash any firmware.

what about flashing flashing a unlocked note 4 ?

why would you ask Note 4 questions in A Series threads when the Note 4 threads are at least 10x more active? Besides, no one will know the answer here anyway.
i just bought a galaxy note 4 it's supposed to be N910F varient like the rom and the label behind the battery say but when i enterd odin mode first the language was korean and the product name is N910K and it did not accept the flash with odin so i want to know if the phone has been modified in term of the hardwares or simply there is a flashing problem so help me guys plz !! thnx
Flash N910K firmware
It might be a wrong packaging box. Product name which shown on Odin Mode is the right Model No. of your phone.
Have you tried to flash with N910K firmware???
You can flash with right N910K firmware.

You are 1 of 100s of victims who have been fooled by masked N910F..
Your phone is korean note 4 n910k from sk telecom and probably spoofed refurbished and fake n910f label and rom but your hardware is still n910k and you cannot flash n910f firmware.
Its very easy to fake the software in build.prop by root even i can do it.if you go to download mode you will see definitely knox is triggered 0x1 so it means it was rooted before.
N910k is exynos octa core processor and n910f is qoad core snapdragon i beleive so they are completly diffrent hardware. dont even try to flash n910f roms or firmware otherwise you may end up brick your device.
You can only flash n910k firmwares.
If you flash n910k firmware you will end up using korean bloatware apps and dialer also in korean language and your device will show roaming signal all the time unless you live in korea and use sk telecom sim card.
My best suggestions will be return back the device ASAP !

I have this firmware Bro.
The same thing happened to me with a Note 3 phone in the past. Everything showed that it was a Note 3 N9005 but when you boot into recovery it showed N900VXX etc. So I returned it and bought N9005 from another place.. Recently a friend of mine has bought a Note 3 and he asked me to flash a custom rom for him. I checked everything and it is N900VXX etc as well. It is even rooted but there is no sign of SuperSu in the apps list. I didn't flash anything but my friend is happy with his phone. So he didn't return it... The screen didn't look as shiny as N9005 screen anyway...
Hey all im totally new to this and i apologise if this has been covered. I had a samsung galaxy note 4 and my darling kids thought it would be an epic idea to stick things inside the charge port totally ruining it and making the phone unchargable. So i contacted samsung repair center and was quoted a ridiculous price to repair and i just bout a new one to only find that its not an australian version i have a sm-n910k and my original one is a sm-n910G what can i do i cant get 3g i cant get lte i can only get 2G and minimal bars of service at that if anyone can help any advice atm is great advice thank you all in advance.

Did you bought a new device, n910k or was it a replacement part? If you're comfortable, you can always change the USB port itself. I've done it for my Note 2 before. The USB port should be just a ribbon cable so you don't have to worry about soldering and stuffs like that. The prices are also way cheaper too.

Apparently the usb port is tricky to replace as its apart of the screen as samsung has told me and its a whole new device its the korean version im not sure what to do as the place i bought it from is a long distance away from where i live and i was wondering if there was a way i could install like the sm-n910G firmware to it. Im at my wits end with this and not sure what to do.
Oh right. I forgot about that. It was a simple plug out and in for my Note 2.
The issue right now is that the n910k, most probably does not support Australia's LTE bands. Hence the reason why you can only connect to 2G. You can check out gsmarena for the supported LTE bands for different models.
You can install a stock Note 4 Exynos firmware from another country with a carrier that uses the same LTE band as your carrier. It should be safe as some members here are able to install different firmwares meant for another device on their device, example N910G on N910F provided the CPU are the same.
Go to SamMobile, and find the firmware for Note 4 and you can see a list of Note 4 firmware available for download. You need to do some leg work though to ensure that the firmware you're flashing is meant for the Exynos version and the modem supports your carrier's LTE band.
This video shows what I'm talking about.

No don't install over the n910g over your n910k. N910k is using a different cpu than N910g. N910k uses Samsung's Exynos processor and N910g being a Snapdragon processor. Idk what would happen if you flash a N910G over a n910K but I think it would be considered lucky if your phone would be able to boot up.
Your n910k should be able to run on another firmware meant for an Exynos processor like n910c. I just don't know if, after installing over your 4G would work because of different LTE bands. But this website says there's a chance it might work.
https://www.frequencycheck.com/compatibility/zYzu9/samsung-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910c/australia
Usually in most cases, when a user accidentally installs a firmware meant for another variant, assuming they would get past the samsung boot up scene, they would not be able to get any network connections. This is due to different firmwares having different modem files for the different LTE bands. However if you were to install over a firmware with the same internals as your current device and more or less uses around the same LTE bands, it should work.

Here you go. It's every firmware ever listed. You need to create an account before downloading though and the download takes forever. You can install the firmware when your phone is in download mode using Odin via your computer.

You can try a random one. Preferably one without a telco. Example, N910C and not N910C (telco name). It shouldn't matter much as the difference would be that the one with a telco would come preinstall with the telco apps. Also, preferably from a English speaking country because usually the language would be based on country.
I would recommend you to download the original firmware for the n910k in case if this fails, you would be able to fall back to the original firmware.

You can try a random one. Preferably one without a telco. Example, N910C and not N910C (telco name). It shouldn't matter much as the difference would be that the one with a telco would come preinstall with the telco apps. Also, preferably from a English speaking country because usually the language would be based on country.
