noob questions sorry in advance!
I would like to know if the baseband version, kernel and build number of the NG sold by different countries varies
If it does so will the difference affect the OTA update process?
Also, can anyone bought from the uk confirm that the warranty by samsung is 2 years and the international warranty is for UK only or EU region or anywhere?
THanks
anyone
All the current ones have been sold in the UK. There might be different regional firmwares bu we don't know for sure until they start showing up.

Does everyone get the same regional market place on this phone or is it different regions different market place ?
I was wondering because someone over at galaxy note said his phone came from another country and he could do a firmware update, I now firmware and apps are different but for any chance anything like this happening with a google device ! just curious

tks!
I know that the nexus went on sale in Korea on the 28th. I have not bought it but i do know that the model number is SHW 420S/K, which is different from the GT I9250 sold in the UK. I am also wondering the same thing. Will the hardware be the same? Will you be able to run I9250 roms on this?

I know of only two places selling the N7105 in the US and Australia
http://www.mobicity.com.au/samsung-galaxy-note-2-4g-lte-n7105.html
http://negrielectronics.com/samsung-n7105-galaxy-note-ii-16gb-unlocked-marble-white.html
Both list as LTE 800 / 1800 / 2600, and both are pre-order expected to ship late October!
Just as a note I have not ordered from either site previously, and am waiting to order my N7105 until it's released / on more sites!

Both versions will get updates and work as if they identical. The only difference you will see is performance and battery. In which snapdragon outperforms on note 10. Both support same LTE band, so yes Virgin 4g should work.
Got one too.
Using Vodafone UK, volte calling and WiFi calling both work.
Great phone and performance

Actually, it kind of depends on which Snapdragon model you are getting.
N975U/U1/W have pretty much every band under the sun, but are single-SIM.
N9750 is missing a few bands compared to the above, but apparently covers everything in use in the UK. It is dual-SIM.

The 9750 has a less locked down firmware, but the N975U1 will get the Android 10 beta.
Living in the UK, I would go for the 9750. You are getting more features at the end of the day.
Got my Snapdragon version a few days ago. Reception and WiFi cover is much better.
I am now selling my exynos UK model lol

Just to be clear on this.....You and No one else should try to flash U.K firmware on the SM-N9750.
On the SM-N9750 you can only flash (BRI) Taiwan firmware, or (TGY) Hongkong firmware.

I think the last October patch came a few days ago, where the Exynos model got it a few weeks back. So no! They have their own update policy not mirroring the Exynos dates.
I got it from eBay. Do a quick search. The device was shipped from a "Swiss" Wearhouse - based on the seller. The good part was no import taxes. Ordered Tuesday, got it one week later!

I may have just ordered from the same seller .. it says it's from Switzerland .. I have a concern that even though the advert says it's new and they say in their listing that its brand new I'm worried that it may actually be refurbished and how would we know ?
---------- Post added at 13:05 ---------- Previous post was at 13:03 ----------
Is there a way to know for sure that the phone is brand new? The seller told me that all their phones are genuine and brand new but they said that most of their phones they open the box to make sure the phones are ok ...
This worried me a bit because if they are saying its brand new then i would expect an unopened box
---------- Post added at 13:57 ---------- Previous post was at 13:05 ----------
Someone told me that he got the SD version on Ebay and the phone struggles to play 4k videos including YouTube whereas his exynos version has no problem
Have any of you had the same problem? Why would this happen

My device came brand new. Not sure if they have opened the box before but it seemed out of the box.

i am also looking into getting one in uk . how is the phone after you guys have been using after a few months ?
I live in USA. I'm thinking about buying back the mate 20X. If I get the L-29 version, will I be able to update to Emui 10 on it in USA? If I'm not able to, what are the steps to take to update it to 10?
The update will be pushed to the phone. Even if you live in the USA.
yeps, just a matter of time until emui 10 is available in all global regions.

the way I made it was to get an SIM of China's Carrier on ebay or borrow one from your friend. Swap the SIM and check the update, the system will do OTA in a few minutes. Do turn off the data and use Wi-Fi. I guess the trick is Huawei's OS assumes your phone are now in China or other regions, so they will push the update to your phone directly. I successfully made it on three models, P30Pro, Mate 20x, and Mate 20x 5G.

It doesn't matter your location as much as what region build number you have. None of these are meant for USA market. Mine is C185 and I finally received Android 10 last night.

I live in the Middle East and received OTA 016.A1.
I was wondering what is the difference in A4 for EMEA, does it activate VoLTE/5G for unsupported countries or just a code name?
Thanks

Hmm I'm UK here and I manually flashed the A1 version. So I should have flashed the EMEA one??
All seems well with no issues, but if this is the case perhaps I should flash this European one

I flashed A1 at first myself and it seemed to be fine but when I noticed that A4 was for UK, IRL,FR, DE etc I went and flashed A4 to be safe. No issues as of yet.
On my pixel 6 pro 256gb from the German Google store via ota it automatically downloaded the A1 firmware ... I don't notice any kind of problem though ....
Same here.no probs with A1
I just flashing OTA A4 manually to i be in safe when i out the signal not drop
