So I bought a 910c note 4 from Lithuania and I want to use in the UK. Am I right in thinking I don't need to change the csc? Someone pointed out it didn't change anything. But does it really not...updates still not so late no problems etc.? Thanks.

Hi all,
Quick question, Im heading to New Zealand in April and ill be taking my note 3 which i bought out right from JB Hifi, with no sim locks as far as im aware.
Question: Will i have the regional lock problem if i were to purchase a NZ Sim card and use it in my phone?
Im currently on Android 4.3 with a Optus Simcard.
Thanks in advance!

Region lock was supposed to be disabled after using your phone to make phone calls for about 5 minutes...
Whether the lock may affect you is anyone's guess but the UK & European phones that come with region lock have a sticker on the outside.
I don't believe you will have any problems but that is still just a guess....
So far as I know genuine Australian Note 3 handsets are not region locked. Was there a sticker on the box when you got it? If not then you are good to go.

Ahh thats good, ive seen pictures of the stickers on the boxes saying that the phone is region locked, my box has no such sticker so i guess im in the clear.
I cant take my optus simcard over to nz as its not mine, so i cant do the 5 min call part, but i might grab a prepaid simcard just incase.
I want to buy a Note 4 Unlocked. But as is normal it appears these days its Rip Off Britain so wanted to avoid the UK one from UK stores and would like to get the 64bit chip version. Anyway there are so many note 4 models I don't know which will be compatible with UK networks. Would the N910C be OK here and if so are there any other I could look at?
Thanks n advance

Someone must know?

Hello there just wanted to check before I go ahead: bought a 910c octo core note 4 is actually from Lithuania pretty sure it's unlocked brand new. And I want to use it on three here in the UK do I just put the SIM in? Or do I need to change regions first (is it csc? can't remember) etc. . I know it's probably a bit noob but it's been a while and I'm not up to date! Thanks.
You should just be able pop your sim card in if that's the case.

No limitation. The only thing is when you setup device initially - the default language will be in the language of the device origin. I have a german DBT Note 4 myself - imported to Ireland. So on initial setup I'm greeted in German - so have to change to english.
Other than that you should have no problems. Likewise you will receive updates based on the territory you bought your device, so if the UK get lollipop OTA update - don't expect your own to get it at same time - you will get that when the update rolls out for the territory your device was originally bought in...
Unless you flash a clean new official rom and change your CSC. But familiarise yourself with the Note 4 before worrying about doing anything like that.
you'd only face the real limitations if you had a US SIM, as the European note 4 models come with a temporary region lock to discourage import.
since the UK is part of Europe, there shouldn't be a problem.
hi everyone...i bought one samsung galaxzy note 4, and after some timeof usage, i noticed unusual sound from the phone whenever i touch the screen, or do anything on the phone, the kind of sound i hear is like the phone want to blow up.. i presently turned the phone off now...pls advice what can i do??
Hello,
I would like to know if it is possible to change CSC from TPA to TMO, and if it is, please share some ideas/info.
I have searched, but looks like no one has done this specific combination. I am not sure if the TMO CSC is only for Snapdragon.
I have the Exynos model of the S8 and use it on Tmobile USA.
I mainly need wifi calling since I get very poor reception where I work, and I miss a lot of calls during the day.
Thanks in Advance.
