don't take this as an educated response, but I've seen many people complaining that VoLTE doesn't work on some custom ROMs. That'd mean that it does work on stock. No idea about India though, but if it works on other countries, why not?
You'd be better off waiting for someone that tried though

[Q] Nexus 7 Indian users ,N7 highly overpriced ? Now what ?

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

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).

Help! USA Nova owners

Hello, my Nexus 5 recently died (rip) and I'm looking for a replacement. I'm currently deciding between a Huawei P9 and nova. My problem is that I can't seem to find where to buy the Nova. I found a few on eBay but I'm hoping someone here could help. I'm a T-Mobile user so if anyone has some info on how the new ova works I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance for any and all help!
Not sure, the consumer.huawei US site does not even list it. My guess is it is not released in the US. Just make sure if you buy one you get a model that is compatible with your carriers bands. If you look at GMSarena they break down which models have which bands.

Availability of dual sim variant

Hello everyone,
I am eagerly waiting to preorder the much-awaited S8(+), but since I do not live in any of the regions which traditionally supply the dual sim variant (South Korea? India? Singapore? China? Thailand?) I would like to know if any supplier is well known for forwarding a dual-sim S8 to Europe, and if so which one would you advise choosing.
My guess is preorders will be quickly saturated so I would like to know where I could get my hands on a dual sim S8 as early as possible
Thank you xda!
Me too, for import to France
In my opinion best dual sim versions coming from UAE. Currently I have s7 edge duos from UAE, and is perfect. Looks same like EU version (even address on backplate is UK). I had in the past s6 duos from china, all documentation in Chinese, also China address on the back. However it was working perfect.
Anyone know reliable online shop in UAE, who shipping to UK?

There is none reliable online store and I don't recommend buying from there as as difficult to get local warranty, still if you want to buy than get it from someone working or living there like friend or relative etc.
Saying reliable online store I mean, real store with good recommendation, who will send device to me without any problems. Unfortunately I don't know any person living there...

I don't agree with many ppl here.. There are lots or reliable sources in uae, well known local online stores with a track record, i personally bought from them (and i live in dubai) and i know for a fact that they ship to many customers in Europe (reading from few other threads on xda related to Samsung products) try Mike&Smith uae and try mygsm uae.. Just Google them.. Hope this helps as i did buy from both many times..
I contacted mygsm uae. They will have s8 duos in stock next week, Shipping to UK is £20, so I will use them

WooooW i never thought they will get it that fast, am already on the waiting list for several sellers here in dubai. Good luck for us.
Thank you for all the advice, mygsm does not display price yet and Mike&Smith sells the S8+ for 4000AED (1020€) which is crazy expensive, will any reseller be cheaper, or is there any other dual-sim friendly country which may sell it for less?

I want to purchase a phone from UAE(dubai) for use in India.Will it work in India?

The model number shown on the webpage of the retailer is SM-G935FTKDXSG. Will this phone work in India with respect to making calls and also LTE bands for 4G? How do I find out if its unlocked or not? Will VoLTE, Samsung pay work in India? Also, for warranty, is there some way to get Indian warranty?

This phone will work in India with respect to making calls and LTE connection. But VoLTE will not work. Not sure about Samsung Pay because I don't use it.
Also, nothing can be done about the warranty.

Thanks for the reply! Where did you get the phone from, and for what price? Where would you recommend I but it from? Also, are you aware of any other features being different between this phone from dubai and the one in India? Have you faced any problems with the phone till now? And, does the phone have warranty inside UAE or not?

I got the phone from the website souq.com for a pretty low price compared to the market price. Most shops in Dubai usually just increase the price for no reason.
My phone also came with one year warranty (Only in UAE).
My phone is almost 6 months old and I've had no problems at all with the phone. Really happy with it.
Yes you can use it with voLTE and SPay. Just flash Indian firmware on the firmware and you're good to go.

No, there is not a difference. I think it's around 1800 there and for that money it's so value for money. Nothing gets better than this phone at that price. Myself using a UAE phone. Get this model 935FD dual sim version.
And, don't get from souq. Not heard good opinion about them from people who live there.

I bought my Nexus 5 from there and used it for 4 years without any issues. Then I bought my S7 edge from there 6 months ago and it has no issues.
My brother bought his LG G3 from there and used it for 4 years without any issues. He bought his LG G5 recently (around the same time I got my S7 edge) and he has no issues with his device whatsoever.
All these devices from souq.com
The site is good as long as you buy from a good dealer. Since anyone can setup a shop on the site, there might be some people trying to sell bad stuff. Just buy from the trusted dealers and you'll be fine.
I don't think Samsung issues international warranty. My home appliances are Samsung branded which doesn't have and one more using the firmware of UAE Volte will definitely not work unless you flash indian package on your mobile that's why I said no.

How To Buy Way Cheaper Chinese a Variant

The thread title says it all. Rather curious how I can get my hands on the Chinese version. I'm an American living in States, but those prices are ridiculously lower. The handset itself is supposed to be identical. Anyone know how I can order one?
Kind of crappy for OnePlus to charge America an extra $137. Fake tariff response.

I have bought foreign phones before and have always found ways to enable/disable bands as needed.. The Snapdragon is very versatile. I'm hoping that installing the international oxygen OS rom will configure the bands. When I get the device I will thoroughly test every band and let you know how I get on.

Haha your post cracks me up, mate. Did you ever get the band unlocked? I'm torn between waiting four more days until it's available in the US, or getting it off of Wonda.
Perhaps you can help me decide. When the phone arrived, did it look brand-spanking-new? Or were there fingerprints all over it? After all, they had to manually flash the international version of OOS I'm assuming? and did it come in original packaging? Or do they just take the components out and just stick it in a random box?

Careful the Chinese version is missing a few of the bands we use here. Think o2 is fine but the rest need band 32 I think for lte advance so you may get slower 4g speeds if on Three voda ee or their mvno's.
Maybe you can unlock bands. Wonda mobile a great trustworthy store

After all, they had to manually flash the international version of OOS I'm assuming? and did it come in original packaging? Or do they just take the components out and just stick it in a random box?

The seal on the box was broken to upgrade the firmware but the device was still wrapped in its protective film. I'm currently on band 20 VoLTE and the device is identifying itself as the international version. I suspect the relevant bands were enabled/disabled with the ROM change.

Wonda mobile.
Question for those using chinese version in USA.
How is it working?
I want the green 256GB version and dual Sim. So going down this route might be my best option.
Only problem I see is if I have a screen issue, will be harder to return.
What do you guys think? Thanks for the replies.
I have used Wonda Mobile and returned a mobile with no issues, you pay for shipping if you change your mind with a fee but if it's faulty they will reimburse you.
I have ordered many times from Wonda Mobile, can't rate them high enough. My 8 Pro was shipped on Monday and I had it by Saturday, 12/256gb £100 cheaper......:good:
