Hey mates,
You all knows there are countries like India where nexus 7 has been overpriced like doubled than US price of N7 ,
So my question to you, what you decided to do now ? As i was wating for this tab from some months but now due to such overpricei am unable to understand what should i do .
I know i can ask anyone to ship from other country but I have no any relatives from other countries to ship from US or any other countries,
& If i ask to any international shipper then also it goes high price with customs duty & taxes.
My last dcsn will be to buy samsung tab 2 as i cant wait more time,
So tell me guys whats your plans to buy Nexus 7 32 GB + 3G model !!!!
It was completely expected wasn't it ? Anyhow my last hope is ebay !

It was always Expected that Nexus 7 would launch in that Range..Those who though otherwise probably dont know that the price in Other parts of the world doesn't matter...it will always be Expensive In India...and Tab2 doesn't even come close to the Nexus...That is what i would call a waste of money.
Is there any chances to get from other country like US ? Any way ? & is there any better option than N7?

Even with Express Shipping, Insurance, and Customs Duty you can pick up a 32 GB N 7 at less price than the MRP (before taxes) here. Bought a 32G N7 for a total cost of Rs 18669.25

There is always the option of buying it on the net.Take ebay for example...try to avoid homeshop18 and indiatimes...horrible service.

Sign up with Borderlinx.com
Buy from either adorma.com or http://www.jr.com/
and have it shipped to your Borderlinx address. Have them forward it to you. The whole thing takes a week. You should have your N7 in 10 days.

I ordered from this Guy:-
http://www.ebay.in/itm/Asus-Google-...s_Tablets&hash=item2a25ca27ac#ht_46.99wt_1139
He shipped and delivered quite fast
Buddy i know galaxy tab 2 lacks quad core processor and i know that it will not get nexus like firmware update .but believe me its a great device.i own it.and it play hd games great.
And it is getting jelly bean soon.
So if you want to buy it go for it you will not regret.
Also your choice may depends on your needs.
Like if you want multimedia device get tab 2,want os updates as soon as released and extreme gaming choose nexus(tab 2 performs good in gaming but obviously nexus dominates due to quad core).

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....
I have the Note 3 but it's the HK 16gb variant. This has been an absolute pain in the donkey at times. The only RoM I really have working guaranteed is Miui, which is great, but ... Anyway, I will not want to fall for the same mistake twice.
I live in China too - and for some reason (probably the bands used) I have never got 4G to work on my Phone. I am pretty sure I don't want to get stuck with a model number from mainland china though, as I cannot read Chinese websites to root and get decent roms and Gapps etc. Really wish Google would stop getting banned in China.
Need it to work when travelling to the States and other countries too.
Any decent advise would be appreciated.
Cheers.
You should go for the international model (N910S)

The Note 4 just released in HK 2 days ago, and it's the Exynos version with 32GB storage.
Maybe you can still consider that...

Hey guys, I just made this video. tell me what you think, I know theres a few rough edges, but im trying to be more professional on my videos.
Heres the text if you dont want to watch it
International
Hey guys and welcome back to another video, here in my hands are 2 oneplus
one smart phones, like i said in my unboxing video one of them is a chinese
version and the other is an international version, so what exactly are the
differences? lets find out
So i'd just like to start off and say that spec wise you get exactly the
same in both. which includes the 5.5" 1080p display, snapdragon 801 processor
clocked at 2.5ghz, 3gb of ram and so on
the differences are minor, so lets start off with the OS.
The intertnational version comes with Cyanogenmod 11S, which is specificly
made for the phone while the Chinese version comes with the very chinese
Colour OS. which doesnt inculde the google play store any google apps. this
is very easy to change thkkough, installing CM11S onto the chhinese OPO is as
easy as flashing any other stock rom on a phone.
Turning it around we see that the 16gb chinese OPO has the white back,
which is what the international 16gb version has as well, the only difference
being is that the chinese OPO doesnt have the cyanogen logo on the back
because of like i just mentioned it comes with Colour OS.
Now inside the phone is where its a little different, the two phones come with
different bands for your 3G/4G. ive done tests and both 3G and 4G work here in
the UK on either EE or Three networks, if your on o2 or vodafone youll have to stick with 3G
If you're in america, 3G/4G works fine in america if your using the internationa model but
only 3G works with the chinese version.theres also a few threads on XDA where theyve managed
to unlock a few other bands to work as well, which ill leave under the like button.
thats all guys, theres only a few differences so if you havent got an invite
but you want one now then by all means go
for the chinese version. if you wanna know where to buy one without an invite,
thats coming in the next video.
if you liked this video then sunscribe so youll be able to see when i release a new video,
Is nobody interested

Bought a silk white chinese version, the box said it's 64gb but AFAIK it only come in 16gb.
I am finally clear about that, thanks.
Alright this may be kind of a dumb question and I apologise if it's not in the correct spot/has already been answered but I currently have a oneplus 5t and I want to move to the s9 when it comes out. I am a huge themer and I love to root/unlock bootloader/install custom roms. Based on what I read it seems that exynos version of Galaxy phones are a lot easier to tinker with compared to snapdragon. Id assume if the s8 exynos works in the US so will the s9. Can anyone confirm this or let me know? I have at&t. Thank you.
Yes, it should work. I don't think I heard anyone mention the opposite. So it should work without any issues.
I have an Exynos Galaxy S8 Duos (SM-G950FD) and I use it with T-Mobile here in Arizona. I haven't had any problems with carrier compatibility, 4G/4G+ works like a charm.
Thanks guys!
I went from 6P, to Pixel XL, to SM-G955F(S8+) on T-Mobile here in Idaho. The signal is great, and I dont have any problems. The S8 is much easier to flash stuff on and modify than the Pixel was, and its working fine here in Idaho. I made the move to Samsung in September.

Is yours the international version? Or does it have exynos processor? Sorry I don't know the model numbers. Is exynos generally easier to root and unlock bootloader for compared to snapdragon?
Mine is international, purchased from Clove in the UK. Exynos is best if you want to do any modding on your phone. Root, flashing, etc. are all very simple with Exynos. To my knowledge the Snapdragon variants cannot be bootloader unlocked, so very limited on what you can do.

I assume you have to buy a separate charger then as their plugs are different over there? I assume the pins on the micro USB are still the same?

It uses usb C which I've got a couple cables already. So yeah you could probably buy an adapter or buy a charger if you didn't already have one.

Yikes. And do I have to pay for a region unlock or??? Idk how that all works.
I think the only thing lacking on the Exynos S8 is Band 30 which probably doesn't really matter for most people, as it's so new and of limited deployment/use.
