i have just ordered a note3 but when i watched the videos of the phone booting up it says SM-N9000Q. I checked the sammobile but there is no firmware or no model like that. Is this only for Turkey like Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 N8005?
In the other hand is this a bad or good thing to have N9000Q?
Does anyone know something about this model? what is the differences from N900?
Thanks,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46218461#post46218461
only thing that i really want to know is shall i cancel my order and order a SM-N9000?
it depends... first of all what do you expect? n9000q has a sticker on the box stating it is aimed to use in several European countries but as far as we read it seems like they sell it only at Turkey. so probably this means we will get updates later then other models and probably they will stop updating device while others got their updates. we have n8005 and n7000 as an example (n8005 fits this situation more and i don't have n7100 so don't know what is going on about it).
i wish samsung will correct this in note 3 but this is just a wish and if they don't.... for most this will not be a problem because they will never know if there is an update that their model haven't received and for some it again will not be a problem because they will root and install custom roms. others will have to live with it or sell the phone early then they planned to.
Anybody has any feedback on this ebay seller? I am looking to buy Note 3 but with Octa processor, thus I have to buy N9000 version. These people have phone available, but I don't know what CSC the phone has. Anybody bought from them?
Thank you

Can anyone tell me where I can get official confirmation that the SM-910C is a European model and SHOULD be covered by Samsung UK warranty - they are playing silly buggers and are requesting confirmation!!

It is usual to have a European or even a worldwide warranty.
However, if you purchased the phone within the Uk from a Uk based supplier then your claim is with the retailer under SOGA.
Slovenia also has 910c and country is EU member

I've got a N910C XEO (Poland), just received it today :victory:. And there are stickers on it saying "European Model" and it's written "European Sim Card Only" on the box.
Hi there,
I am interested in buying Galaxy S7 Edge. I live in Canada, so i am not interested in buying the canadian variant. My experience with my current Galaxy S4 was horrible. No updates or anything.
If anyone knows website that can ship the Galaxy S7 Edge phone, legit website, please let me know.
I found one called clove . They have it and have the lowest price. But when I went to pre-order, it says there is a samsung region lock on. So If i give them permission, they will open the seal , insert european sim card and make a 5 minute call to region unlock it. Does the Galaxy S7 Edge have this region lock or no? Can someone please confirm?
I prefer to receive my phone factory sealed.
Thank you!

International variant? Do some research first. The exynos chip S7 will be sold all around the world except for USA and China that will have snapdragon. Canadian variant is exynos and if all your interested is in updates, that's pretty silly.

I did my research. Yes, I am aware of that . How is it silly? Explain yourself.
You thinking an international variant will get "updates" quicker than other variants. Why are updates so important? I pre-ordered a bell s7 edge. Canadian variants have warranty. Why would you risk getting an international phone with no warranty?

Canada will receive the Exynos variant which is the same as the European variant, though I'm not sure if it will be available unlocked in Canada. Wether you order from Clove or Unlocked Mobiles your phone will have to go through that process in order for it work in Canada or somewhere else. The only thing you could do to avoid having an opened phone is going to Europe and insert the SIM card and make the 5 minute phone call yourself, or maybe have a European relative do it for you. But if you skip this the phone won't accept your Canadian SIM.

So, it is safe to let Clove open it for the region lock? I saw same model as Clove on ebay, but a reputable seller, but he sells factory sealed phone. It doesn't require region unlock!
Thank you for the help! Appreciate it !
Yeah, i know Canada is getting one. But I want the updates which international variant gets. Canadian will become obsolete thanks to our lame carriers. I'm never buying any Canadian variant phone.

I have never purchased from them but I read good reviews, I'm ordering it from UnlockedMobiles. They do not state for a fact that they do the same thing as Clove but I sent them an email and they said they do it by default for shipping addresses in the US, they do exactly the same as Clove which is insert UK sim then make a 5 minute phone call. I saw some phones on ebay like that one you're telling me and besides that they're way overpriced ($100 more expensive) I honestly don't get how they can get it to work without opening the phone and doing that unless they somehow got the Global american version? dunno if that even exists. Still if you want to spend over $800 on the phone might as well wait until March 11th for B&H to make the phone available http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1225381-REG/samsung_sm_g935_32gb_slv_galaxy_s7_edge_g935.html bear in mind they will offer the Global/International variant but I don't know if it's american or something but B&H is based off NY.
So these phones, are they G930F/G935F or something else.

Well if you look up a phone that is already available like the S6 Edge you can find lots of unlocked variants like:
S6 edge+ SM-G928G
S6 edge+ SM-G928C
S6 Edge SM-G925F
S6 Edge SM-G925I
Apparently some are unlocked and some others are Region specific.
Try Odin
ust a quick suggestion. You can use Odin to flash an official firmware of another region as long as it's the same hardware. This doesn't trip Knox or count as root as you're using official Samsung firmware. That way, you could buy a Canadian phone, then flash there international firmware. If there's a problem flash back the Canadian firmware and retain your warranty. Try it with your s4
I got my hands on a Sm-G935F at chrismas time, I was hoping this would be a great layover until the new s8 comes out. It's unlocked and I'm using it on Bell but reception is horrible. The S7 i had before that I handed down to my wife had way better reception. There is no Canadian firmware for the SM-G935F that I can find. Any suggestions to help make it better.
