Hi guys, it has come to my attention that the most developed and root/unlock/flash away friendly variant of the note 4 is the SM-N910F. I tried getting the T-mo version but since i leave soon i dont want to pay for a plan i aint gonna use.
The ultimate question: Where da heck do i buy a N910F in the states without it pricing 900 bucks? any ideas or pages? i really thank anyone with info in advance!

Guys, I'd like to know how you all go about getting your Hermes and how much you pay for it.
Since I live in a country where is costs like $1000 for the Hermes, I was wondering what would be the best way to go about getting it for cheap like it is in the US and UK.
I tried asking a few of my friends in the states to pick up one of the cingular connections which offers an 8525 along with a 2 year contract for about $400, but that would mean they have to get an extra connection.
I've noticed that there are a lot of people who sell these kind of phones on ebay which have been unlocked for around the same price.
Is there anybody you guys would recommend? or is there any other way I can go about getting the 8525 or equivalent for around $400 Brand new.
Hope yu guys can help out ASAP. My friend in the US leaves in another 2 weeks. It has to reach him by then.
Thanks and Regards

Check you PMs
if you're using fido, i'm guessing you're in canada
some local cell phone places can get the hermes relatively for about 700CAD or so, usually the softbank japanese version
you could check craigslist for your area
e.g. vancouver.craigslist.org
see if you can search HTC or Cingular 8525
i'm lucky i got mine from ebay locally though
under 450CAD brand new
@Taurus... Check ur PMS
Anybody else?
Here in HK....a new Softbank unlock with latest Dopod ROM is only USD 380....
Go to Sintat, Mongkok
Anything that I can get online???
Something that is Brand New and doesn't cross $400 to 500?
Any help would be appreciated.
ah fuk, i got mine for $525 CAD LNIB
Cheapest X01HT so far??!

Ah, the gansta stronghold, as we call it.
Thanks guys...
@ $5 x 24 = $120.00... Really? The only other place I saw that kind of a price was on Amazon where an 8528 was going for about $125.00 with a 2 year Voice and Data Plan from Cingular which at it's cheapest would cost you around $80.00 a month.
Hope somebody else can point me out to a good deal. I'd prefer the M3100. Like our Mr. Activ Moderator pof pointed out... it's looks neat

Yes it's true, around $120... but it's a two year contract. In total the monthly fee is $25 including only 12250 packets and free calls from 1am to 9pm inside the softbank network...
SoftNank in China
I got my SoftBank Hermes 200 phone in China for US$450 unlocked with English ROM.
Managed to find what looks like a decent seller on eBay.
Let's see how it goes. Brand New 8525 for around 450.00
Check this out.

Hi Henry,
Thanks for the link. I'm trying to avoid the X01's. Looks like this one works up to about USD 550.
I got my Cingy 8525 from Craigslist (SF Bay area) for $400 about 4 month ago
hi everyone
i was wondering is there any store in Shanghai that sells galaxy S ?
tnx
just patient for another week
Hey, I looked on taobao.com, and yeah there seems to be a shop in SH that will carry it as of today, apparently.
I am currently in Beijing, but I m thinking about ordering it. Or, if you do find it, maybe you can let me know where and how much? I *should* be in Shanghai for business around the 20th of the month.
Anyway, would be much appreciated if you find anything... PM me if yes
Thanks
Hi there guys,
Hope you all are having a good day.
So the thing is that I decided on getting myself a Note 3 (the international version). I sought the add out on Amazon and will be purchasing it soon.
Could someone who has an idea about the import tell me as to how much will the final price be that I have to pay after the custom clearance? I really need to know this before buying it. The on-shelf price of the Note 3 on the website is $705 and the seller is 'mygsmstore'.
It would be a great help. I can't ask questions on the website as I haven't yet bought anything from amazon.
Hi there,
I am also trying for the same. if you refer to my question here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47783662, I am trying to get this from Expansys.
Let me know if you are interested and/or want to pursue this!
Thanks,
Ckhurana
Even I was thinking of the same, however there are quite a few problems.
1. How good is the retailer. As we will lose all warranty since its a USA product. So we need to be pretty sure of genuineness of the product.
2. Customs is quite tricky. I have searched and could barely find a convincing answer about the customs aspect on importing the phone
3. Region Locking- Samsung region locks the device. i.e. if we get it from USA, how will we get a US sim to unlock it.
Would be glad if some community member can help us.

is that so well as i recall it i could see a number of sellers who directly import unused and unopened Note 3 from the US, only extra cost which the customer may need to pay is OCTROI if applicable.

Hi,
I see that you have ordered note3 N9005, even I am planning to buy one from US. But there are two main concerns, first, is this a genuine Samsung phone? Second, about region lock policy of Samsung.
So, please let me know did you face any region lock problem and how is your phone working so far (could you check your phone with android app which verify the originality of Samsung phone). If your phone is good, I can order from the same seller.
Hey guys, a buddy of mine bought a Rose Gold Note 3 while he was in Korea and now is selling it. I am thinking about buying it off of him even though it is not compatible with LTE here in Canada.
My main concern though is if the phone can be rooted and if there is a variety of Roms that can be put on it. I base my buying decision on this with every phone I get.
Is this phone considered different to the development community than say an American Note 3? Will this cause a seperation in the Rom development?
The phone runs a Snapdragon 800 and not the Exynos.
Thanks a ton guys!
ps. Would you get this phone over the M8?
What is the model of the phone? For example the international version is called SM-N9005, please answer this so we can help you out

Take a look here if you want it rooted/custom ROM'd/modded. This is the main thread for Korean Note 3s. I'm pretty sure if he didn't update it often you can still use towelroot.

I wouldn't even get a Note 3 at this point dude. Wait for the new Nexus or Note 4....
Hello ! i recently broke my s3(my driver for 2 years) and have been extremely interested in getting a note 4 for the next 2-3 years and just have no clue which model would give me full coverage and full accessibility especially 4G. Right now i have a sm-910g that i'm looking at and have contacted the seller and he said everything should be fine. Now i use metro pcs and i've been reading that it does work and then that it won't work at all. Please i need a clear answer (i'm trying to order the phone tomorrow) , any help would be super helpful, Thank you in advance!!
