SGH-i747 is the AT&T US variant of the phone.
GT-I9300 is the International variant
What service provider do you have that you'll be using the phone on?

Yes there is the i747m is the Canadian and American hardware variant, don't ever try to flash a rom from a i9300 or you will Brick you're phone

Hey XDA!
I am very new here on XDA, only just registered!
I have a very bad problem (well for me!)
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100)
It has stock firmware and a custom kernel, Note2Core.
I can't seem to connect to my local carrier, the root of this problem is yet unknown!
Only thing I have so far is that in:
Settings > About Device, right at the bottom I there is United Arab Emirates and a TRA ID and a TA!
I do not know what this means but it looks like my phone is registered to be from the UAE! I personally bought it here in South-Africa and it worked fine. Until recently I was running CM10.1-Nightly but wanted the capability to overclock! I downloaded the stock firmware for my country, 4.1.2, and flashed it via odin. Please help as I am unable to register with WhatsApp or use some of my other features!
Thanks in advance,
Hitman7987

Welcome to XDA hope we would be able to help you
Could you tell me from where did you download the firmware ?
Can you verify if your device is showing the correct IMei number as labeled under your battery and *#06#

I downloaded the firmware from Sammobile.
I don't know if that's the correct firmware, but I am under the impression that I can download for any country actually?
Yes, I wrote down the IMEI number before all of my flashing! It is still the same.
Thanks for the welcome, I already feel like part of the family!

None really, just the fact that I can't connect to my local carrier. I have to put roaming on.

And this has nothing to do with your provider/sim card? Did you try another provider?

Hello, how i can see how much internal memory i have? 16gb, 32gb, etc... when i go to the apps there's only about 10gb but i think the minimum is 16gb so i'm confused.

Yes, They are unable to support me, since I used a custom rom beforehand. My local sevice providers are pretty useless anyway!

Hey Mars, (or is that your location?)
I believe the avail storage depends on your rom, kernel ,ect. I also only have about 9.6 GB avail in stock but about 12GB in CM10.1.
The missing storage is your device rom and/or system apps I think, might only be the system apps.

If you're talking about this site/link, pay attention it's from Canada, so it's most likely related to Canadian Carriers (Bell, Rogers, etc.. ) NOT ATT sadly. The Canadian version of the GS3 is also a similar model, so I could understand the confusion from that article i747(m) http://www.blanksuniverse.ca/2013/06/android-412-update-on-samsung-galaxy.html

Yeah....ok i see ...so there is no update yet !!

Yep...AT&T is currently solo in this specific blatant disregard for its customers (not saying that other carriers are not guilty). They don't bother to release any information as to why they stand alone. You can wait it out or just root and move on.

You need to be in the correct forum. This is for the US Sprint version. You need to look for the international version section.

[Q] How to connect Gear VR and Unbrand this SM-N910A

Hi this is my first post here I'm trying to find the right firmware to unbrand my phone. I'm in London and I bought an unlocked AT&T phone a guy from Gumtree.
1. After connecting my Gear VR it says that software update is needed
2. Then it checks with AT&T for software update but it says it already the latest software. Is it because I'm in Europe it doesn't allow me to see the update?
3. Now it says to wait 24 hours before next check(ridiculous! What kind of rubbish servers they have???)
How to:
Remove branding and get pure Samsung soft without this AT&T rubbish overlay
What processor is in this phone? I think it's Snapdragon but still I'm not sure and I don't want to brick this phone
More about the phone:
Model: SM-N910A
Android: 4.4.4
Baseband: N910AUCU1ANIE
Device name: My little pony
Kernel version: 3.10.0-2771708 [email protected] #1
Build number: KTU84P
Security enhancement(I guess something to block you from unblocking): SEPF_SAMSUNG-SM-N910A_4.4.4_A019
MOD EDIT: Please read forum rules. There is no selling/trading/buying on XDA. Use swappa.com

Can't unbrand because the att note 4 is boot loader locked and unrootable at this time, but you can flash the stock update manually through Odin.

It didn't work. After changing software to the version from the post it gear vr again says it needs an update and then AT&T again says it up to date. So ****ing frustrating! This is my first experience with AT&T company and I can only say it's ****.

I couldn't find that file. Where have you seen it? I ordered another Galaxy Note 4. Lol first I bought was counterfeit and still waiting for a refund, second AT&T being useless ATM (I only care about gear VR), third from a company on amazon with 1 review, hopefully this time I'll be lucky.
