[device country][noob] - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Because of warranty?
Important is that you have a Stockrom and all status are original / offical, no flash counters.

Yes for warranty. I've flashed a custom ROM before but I updated the ROM from the OTA and I lost root access. Now, I need warranty so Iwant to go back to 100% stock.
Should I go based off of the CP or AP#?

Yes, I am currently writing this message using this exact model, with CleanRom.
Cellular south is your device's region, which is also your CSC. Doesn't really affects anything in terms of wifi (not sure about 3G, it might have slightly different frequencies, I don't know).
The only way it affected me is that my samsung keyboard doesn't have sub-characters enabled (long press for quick access), so i had to install Xposed to fix that (it still has sub characters in a menu, don't get me wrong).
You can ask me anything, I have this exact US model with XAR CSC

Twitter is banned in some counties, were are you and what country did you select at setup?

I am at Turkey and my settings are also Turkish.
I have other Samsung devices which the Twitter works fine with Turkish settings (Note 8, Note 10, S3...)
Also, when I find Twitter from Samsung apps, it works. I just can't find it pre-installed or on Google Play.

Based on your posting I looked at Play and see that Twitter is showing as incompatible for me also. I am based in the US. However as stated Twitter is preloaded on my tablet.
I have run into the issue with ~10 apps reporting as being incompatible. This is my biggest complaint about the tablet.

Chinese tablette, change/add language, flash to french?
Hi guys,
I'm on the same boat, I bought the device from China for my dad, but it only has Chinese/Korean/English language and a lot of stuff he doesn't want/need.
I would like to flash the tablet to French, but it seems the ROMS are country dependent, and I don't want to brick it just yet
What's my best option to get french on the device?
Any feedback on this will be appreciated!!

Try to flash this latest firmware for Hong Kong. After the flash, you have to get into recovery mod and do the wipe reset factory.

I haven't. I am being careful. I am waiting on Bodiva to answer my question. Bodiva if you are seeing this can you please advise
I'm in the UK, bought my Tab S 10.5 from eGlobal Central UK and when it arrived the system software was in Chinese. I was able to change it ok to English and the model number is SM-T800. The Samsung internet app home page is the Samsung Hong Kong site. All Google apps are present and correct and there are no preinstalled Chinese apps. But I can't get Odin to recognise it in download mode. I've tried different cables, different usb sockets, I've even tried it on 2 pc's but no use. Odin does see it on Com port 9 when the tablet is booted up, but doesn't see it at all on the 2nd pc. It connects as an mtp device on both pc's ok.
So even though its an SM-T800 Tab S, it looks like I have no mission of rooting it as Odin doesn't work. I suppose I could return it as I wasn't told in advance that it would be a Chinese one I was buying.

Hi, I used the ROM Bodiva suggested. It works perfect !
The only thing that doesn't work is the 4g connection. it doesn't recognize the SIM card (null / null IMEI). I am still looking for a solution for that. But for the rest the ROM is OK, can easily be flashed through ODIN.

which odin do you use.... I use odin 3.07, but it seems odin 3.09 for galaxy s4 also recognizes the tablet, although I haven't confirmed it actually works. See if this works: go to your tablet's settings, tap general, tap "about device", then tap "build number" 7 times. Now you have developer options. Now tap that and check enable usb-debugging. If you have installed adb, open a command terminal with admin rights and type "adb reboot download" (without the quotationmarks) put your original samsung cable in the top-usb port on the back of your computer, open odin 3.07, and check the connection.

That will be difficult if not impossible until someone can change the bootloader, even in Hong Kong if you tell them you live on
the mainland, they will not sell you a 4G model as it will not work.
One strange thing is that with every ROM ever made, if you for example took the SamsungIME apk and moved it to another device
that was similar, it worked fine, it does not in this, a Hong Kong 805 IME will not even register or be recognized on the 805C. That
is enough to suspect that China does not want you to replace that keyboard, but why? keylogging perhaps.

Thats not specific enough as too many regions with the same firmware version are available. You can use Phone INFO - Samsung to read out

I can't find any valuable informations about your device. SCH-I435 is Verizon's S4 mini. Which carrier is the I435L?

1. In ONE ROM you have MORE THAN ONE COUNTRY
2. By flashing rom, recovery, rooting the phone it is possible to loose warranty or bricking the phone.
3. You can follow these steps:
- Download the rom (firmware) acording to your country from samfirmware or sam-updates websiet.
example 1: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-I9195/SWC/
example 2: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-I9195/AUT/
In that Rom there will also be country like HU, DE, IT, FR and so on.
The software/rom will "take" the CSC for choosing if is a O2 or an ITM or Vodaphone or Verizon etc. after flashing it.
So, you need to change CSC, if you wish to swich from IT to DE for example, and that CSC to be contained into the ROM.
But to change CSC you need root, as far as I can see.
Read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2751192
section " - How to change CSC? "
I hope it helps.
You will not have any problem flashing different region.
Mine was panama Latin America, but I've flashed Russia, India, Germany, different carrier for my country and all worked fine.

It appeared in samsung's official website and seems to be sold without contract.
It has almost the same hardware to I435.

The phone is not listed as SCH-I435L. The firmware version on Samsung's website is SCH-I435ZKAXAR, search engine shows I435"L"... in title but its not listed anywhere on the Samsung website. If you click on "retailer" online or locally you won't get listed any shops selling this model. The common sources for Samsung firmware don't provide any downloads. Its as the phone doesn't exist. Only option left is to contact Samsung's customer care.
It doesn't matter which region you choose.

Maybe contacting samsung's customer care is ultimate way. The i435L does exist cuz I abtained the firmware version from an ebay's seller.
i found a correct rom but...
The rom has same version i got now (4.2.2)... will something happen if I flash a rom that has same version?

Thanks but it is nowhere to be found on that site. Do you have a direct link to the actual page with the firmware?

It's got every single device for every region put your model in the model selection box.
Sm-t700 or sm-t705
There you go simple : http://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-T700/

You didn't even state what region you just said you couldn't find the files anywhere.
I'm not a mind reader
US is XAR.

Thank You! I didn't realize that USA was XAR.
Is this Normal that you have to create an Account and Payment Plan to Download ?

I tried a few Pages to Download this Firmware but ALL of them (including this Site) are only offering Download after Registration and Selection of a Payment plan. Its was nowhere to be Found for Free. Could this be a regional Problem ?
Then i found out about SamFirm tool and this got me the Firmware easily Downloaded.
