Has there been any word on if the Nexus 6P has different variants of hardware setups? Using and building custom ROMs for the Note 4 has been a nightmare as there are a ton of variants of that phone.
Unless I'm mistaken there should be two correct? Usually a US and a INT variant.
There were two nexus 6 but custom ROMs are totally interchangeable..... Doesn't matter what rom is flashed on international or domestic

The Huawei website lists two variants. I think the only difference was the radio bands.

Exactly what I wanted to hear.
Are there different models with different brands of RAM/eMMC (like the Nexus 6 had last year)?
My 6P has Hynix RAM and Samsung storage, anyone else's different on the BL?
Yes, I think many different versions are there. Art Russ showed photo in G+ with Hynx ram and Toshiba storage, but I have Samsung RAM with Samsung storage

Im getting a N7 in a few days and im sure this has been asked before, but do all ROMs work with the 8GB version? Just wanting to make sure, because I saw a OP in a ROM thread that looked like it said it was for the 16 only. Excuse the n00btastic question, but I just want to make sure. Thanks. :good:
The Roms should work with all the nexus 7s. The only major difference between 16gb and 8gb versions is the storage.

Will the roms in this forum work woth the U.S. sprint model of the gs4?
Also what is the model name for the sprint gs4 so I know what to look for when looking for compatible roms (I.g. my current tmo note 2 is called T889)?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
You'd be better off waiting until there is a Sprint subforum. That forum will have everything that is for the sprint version. I'm not sure what the model number is, I haven't really searched for it.
It will be SPH-L720

Yeah thats what I figured. I assume these roms are for the international version with the eynos octa 5

Your correct the international roms wont work on any of the U.S. s4s varients. Qualcomm vs. Exynos roms are incompatable. The qualcomm version already has development started.

Considering our model numbers are different and our bootloaders are unlocked we seem to be making progress here in these forums but continue to have people get mixed up with their AT&T variant and ours.
This consistently leads to comments about how something won't work or to not do anything since our bootloaders are locked when they aren't because we have the canadian variant.
Just a request to avoid confusion between the two devices and parties.

Agreed. For a while, most of the discussion of the Canadian variants were in the general section of the international S4 forum, which is not really the same phone.

By segregating forums it's not going to help development later when the bootloader are unlocked for the AT&T version.

Here's why, there are 5+ mobile operators in Canada using the same phone with the same unlocked everything. In the America you have 3 different variants depending on the carrier. By segregating we are less likely to cause confusion between us and one of the plethora of variants in America, less bricked devices and better specific support for said device. To have a canadian subsection for any and all Canadian phones would be beneficial to the community and development progression as we could continue to develop and create without the risk of being detrimental to your community in its current state.

They do. Not to mention our LTE band is different here, so we can't just flash AT&T custom ROMs without flashing our own Canadian carrier branded radios.

Most likely everything will be interchangeable once the bootloaders are unlocked and they will be by the end of this month.
If nothing is interchangeable or the devices prove to be completely incompatible in many ways then separate them.
At this point, if there was no point in separating the forums, and a Dev made an awesome ROM, he would probably receive a lot more donations if the forums are kept together if and ONLY IF they are compatible development wise.
Waiting 3 weeks isn't going to kill you.

As mentioned, the radios are different and we use different LTE bands. Any ROM made for the AT&T version would require us to flash a Canadian modem at the least.
Anyway, when all the major carriers with 95%+ of the subscribers in this country are using the exact same phone, I think our model # should at the very least be put in the title of one of the forums. That would keep posts concentrated better instead of being spread between this forum and the international forum.
Then again, our phone is just as much an I9505 as it is an I337. Just different radio.

Dear Mods,
I know I'm not alone when I say this, but we would like our own forum for our Canadian variant of our device. As our device is significantly different from other variants, and nobody likes specific projects for N900W8 to be jumbled along with ROMs for N900 or N9005 (as they can't be installed on a W8 device without major issues), I would like to start a poll to gather people who would like a clean forum, not a forum with three different variant's ROMs jumbled up together that aren't cross flashable.
Also asking questions and finding solutions is easier when the entire forum uses the same device, so a solution for the specific device is much more convenient in the same forum!
Also go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46446026&postcount=11600 to like my post and also post a quick reply saying you want the N900W8 as well!
Thanks a lot!

This sure would make things a lot easier that's for sure...especially once things really get going with development and once our phones have roms released
I agree with this idea!
Yes please !
Another yes. It's always been jumbled together with AT&T and then i have to manual filter to find items that are applicable.

Agreed we need our own forum since the cross flashing as seen with s3 and s4 arent going to apply with N3 so it would seem.

flashing Roms even from other versions of the same model don't work. We definitely need our own board.

Bell/telus..rogers/fido probably.
Wind runs on diff frequencies. ..people on wind dont even get LTE. having this phone and no lte is like having a ferrrari but you cant take it out of first gear!
At the very least wind users will need to flash another baseband to run a rogers or bell ROM

I'm just wondering, would it be possible to eventually kind of convert the Canadian Note 3 variant into an American variant? I don't think I've read about any hardware differences between the two variants. Also, I can't imagine there would be too much development for just the Canadian Note 3 alone (or has there been an active developer community for Canadian devices previously?).

For your information, the Galaxy S4 have his own section in the forum :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2257
As you can see, there is plenty of roms and folks exchanging informations, tips and bugs for the same device, which make sense for me
Just remind every one, not only Canadian is using N900W8, N900W8 is a very large group. Mexico, Many South America country is using N900W8 too.
Plz develop this model phone.

I think that is because at&t is SGH-i337 and rogers/bell is SGH-i337M; T-mobile is SGH-M919, Wind is SGH-M919V.
But now the model name is big difference, dont know if the hardware has different or is bootloader lock or not difference.

Yeah that's why there's a / in the title too
That raises a question too. Is the Wind version of W8 actually the same as the Robellus W8? Even though numbers match up, we won't know till we can compare the stock ROMs with each other.

I came from a GS3 when they were running the free after instant rebate promo.
The G2 does have a more reliable signal, possibly a little stronger too.
I dont know if it is a big enough reason to switch...it could depend on your location, etc.
It is a fantastic phone though. I dont have the urge to crack flash either with all the UI customization possible witb stock.

I did the opposite where I had the G2 and dumped it for a Note 3. If I'm being completely honest, I think the Note 3 is a better overall phone with more advantages. But of course it depends how you will use your phone.
I owned the G2 for a month, so I think I had a pretty decent sample size to give my opinion.

I honestly don't think they are even comparable, because of the size and the S Pen.

It mostly depends on what you want to do with it. I have the original Note on ATT. I decided on the G2 over the N3 because of all the nonsense Samsung is getting into with not allowing us to flash and customize OUR devices. Since you are on Verizon, the vise is even tighter on you. Seems us GSM guys have it a little easier. Good luck with your decision.
Is this another Note 3 vs G2 comparison thread?
Aren't people getting tired of comparison threads getting locked?
