I just upgraded my Note 3 to Lollipop. Used a firmware version from Hong Kong (TGY), and Odin to flash it to the unit.
But I wonder: from a user perspective, what is the difference between the Hong Kong and, for instance, the Russian (SER) or any other SM-N900 Lollipop version? There must be, otherwise they wouldn't exist, should they?

Is it possible to safely flash Hong kong rom on unbranded N9005 and then odin-flash N900T modem for t-mobile USA ?
For me Hong Kong roms always ran best on my first note and on second as well . I did have some roaming on my note 2 with Hong Kong rom but it woked fine . I am not worried if It's not going to work , I can reflash stock , I am only worried if I F-Up the phone completely or hardbrick it somehow . Any pointers ??

Hi everyone,
I have a Hong Kong international Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) 16GB and I want to install the leaked android 5.0 lollipop rom for
N9005. I know that Hong Kong devices cannot install roms from other countries. What should I do to enable my device be flashed other rom?
Thanks
Seems you have the international model N9005, which is the almost same model I have got. I reckon you should be able install the leaked lollipop rom. The instructions on this forum details what you should do if you have got the 16GB version.

I recommend you don't try any custom rom (this can upload your bootloader to 5.0 and you will have problems for come back to 4.4.2) or stock rom till the official updates for your country zone.

Looking at Samsung's update history... Hong Kong variant of n910u updates is released about 2-4 months later compared to the New Zealand variant. I would say we should get the update first week of December(?)
i updated the New Zealand version 5.1.1 of vodafone - i am trying the HD VOICE in Israel Orange but it's not working - i tried to enter the technical menu to AMR settings , but i cant change to AMR -WB , any suggestions?
Can I upgrade my 910U (5.0.1) having following firmware to 5.1.1 NZ ROM available at Sammobile:
My current Stock ROM
Bootloader Version:
N910UXXU1BOHC
PDA Version:
N910UXXU1BOHC
CSC Version:
N910UZZT1BOHC
Baseband Version:
N910UXXU1BOHC
What i understand is tht as ROMs for 910U serve more than one country (new zealand, hongkong, tiawan etc) so one can install ROMs for one country on an another country provided the Note 4 model is the same i.e. 910U.
Thnx
Hello,
I have a samsung galaxy s5 which is on the Hong kong version (TGY).
Is it possible to update the phone to android marshmallow and change the CSC at once.
Currently I have the Hong Kong lollipop (5.0) and I have downloaded the firmware for the marshmallow from the Netherlands CSC.
Any help is appreciated
Thank you
Hi all! I am looking for Hong Kong firmware for Galaxy A5 A5000. I found one file firmware and flashed using Odin, but it has been 20 min. and phone is still sitting at the Samsung logo. I wanted to downgrade from Android 6 (China open) firmware to Hong Kong Android 5 and I believe I need 3 separate firmware files in order to do that.
