Hi there, I've just received my Galaxy Nexus (i'm in the UK) and it seems to be an american model? Model number behind the battery is GT-19250M, but the sticker on the box is GT-19250TSGGEN? The phone also came in 2 boxes-the Samsung retail box with a 2 pin american power adaptor and that was in another box with a UK 3 pin plug. Before I use the device I just wanted to know from you guys if the USA model has HSPA+? Is the european model different? Do I need to send it back? Cheers

There are plently of threads on this already but basically there are 2 versions of the Note 2. the N7100 is the international NON LTE version relying on HSPA+ and there is the N7105 which (in the UK) will be released on the 15th October and is the LTE version and will be compatible on the upcoming 4G services offered by EE etc...

well
thanks alot for your help
you make me more relaxed now...
i thought i got the wrong model
I found a brand new Note 2 on Craigslist, I am interested in, he said it was the international version, so I said cool, I'll buy it. Then I asked specifically which model is it exactly, he e-mailed me a pic, showing "GT-N7102" Looking up that model number, shows it to be the Chinese international version ? Which is different than what I would call "International", as in the European version.
Anyways, would that model Note 2, still work in the U.S. on ATT or T-Mobile, and Straight Talk ? And would ROM's in this specific Note 2 forum work for that phone ? Or is there a specific GT-N7102 forum ?
Thanks
Found out its a Chinese clone model, not even a true Samsung made phone. Scammer on Craigslist didn't say that, until I saw the model # in settings, then he admitted it.

Model number e988 for India..
e988 is also for HK..
It only has 16 GB internal memory...
And this is the killer .....the India version will not have LTE! !
LG in its infinite wisdom has chosen to remove LTE from the Indian model..and probably the reason is that LTE is not yet available in India ..but were 3G phones not launched by Nokia like 6 years back when nobody in India even knew what 3G meant? This is ridiculous...does LG expect u to buy new phones when LTE launches in India in 6 months time?
and this phone just won the 'best LTE device's award ...how ironic
After having waited for the phone so long, feel cheated a bit
Edit; here is the link to the official specs for Optimius G Pro on LG India's website

Actually 3G phones have a unified radio i.e. a set of only 4 frequencies and a single modem can be used for all those....in case of LTE a unified radio is still no available and each modem they have to put in a phone caters to a specific LTE band...even in a single country there are multiple bands and the phone's LTE won't work on each other....for example in Korea there are three models of LG OGP F-240 K/L/S each caters to LTE of different carrier and cannot be used on another network...
thus if LG removed LTE it is a good thing as it will be useless until a carrier identifies the band it has been allocated by the Govt and will use....also comparison with 3G before time is not relevant as working mechanism is slightly different

Actually there are a few things to consider here
1) the Indian version still uses snapdragon 600 which is a chipset that has LTE enabled by default ...so actually LG has had to work to disable it rather than enable it, and I fail to think why they did that. Reminds me very much of the nexus 4 where they did the same thing
2) you are right about LTE bands not decided yet for India ...only working LTE service, Airtel in kolkata on a pilot basis, uses a 2300 MHz band which is not supported by any of the international phones ...however it is likely that when LTE services are rolled out on a mass scale, bands will be chosen based on popular bands internationally, in which case the chosen bands are likely to be one of the bands on the phone ..unless the Indian rollout uses LTE advanced, which is not available on any version of this phone, I think there is a strong possibility that with LTE enabled, this phone will be future proof
3) I don't think disabling LTE will lead to any cost advantage as the chipset is still going to cost the same
4) with LTE disabled, any custom rom support for international versions like AT&T etc is unlikely to work for the Indian version (although that may be the case with LTE enabled also but with LTE disabled the radio configuration will definitely not allow such porting)
Only saving grace could be if LG announce that they are not advertising LTE in the specs but that have not disabled it.
Lets wait for July 4th

No LTE is not a thing to be disappointed about...at the moment you have no LTE network and as for "future proofing" the argument is not that strong as you cannot confirm that the band will match....
as for 16GB...imo it is enough but again you have the option of expandable memory and with a simple script you can move app data to sd card...plus usually 16/32 GB models differ in price as much as $100 but you can get a 32GB card for as low as $30.....so im happy if only 16GB model is available as it will keep price low and chance of more people buying it and hence maybe more development
in a nutshell i don't see any real issues here to get disappointed over but again its my humble opinion

Mumbai Update:-
I went to alfa today (renowned place for phones in mumbai) and they said they dont bother keeping LG's any model except the nexus 4, the dealer was very vague in saying once you buy an LG product forget about getting good service. I for one was upset knowing this at first.
secondly this youtube review shows extra battery, a chargeable dock aswell. So it doesnt matter if its non lte or 16 gb but if these goodies are packed then its worth it. I mean there isnt good resale with LG but what the heck its better than note 2 at the moment and pretty usable.
Anybody here knows any place in mumbai where is it gonna be available? Please update here

Alfa is a laggard, not a leader...they will keep a phone only if it becomes popular or the brand is popular..don't waste time worrying about what they said.
The extra battery and charging dock are only for the Korean version...for India you will get standard stuff - charger, headphones, USB cable

Np mate, its good to give the correct info, looking forward to get one soon
I want to buy 32GB WiFi version, but it hasnt been released yet here in Sweden and in Jan maybe. But there is 32GB available at Ebay/Amazon.uk US version.
But is there any difference at all between US/EU Note 10.1 2014 WiFi versions?

The only thing that will effect you is that Samsung Warrenty (EU) say they can't guarantee to fix device if bought from outside the EU. Apart from that I believe the devices are exactly the same but don't take my word for it.
Differences between US vs EU

One difference is the wifi frequencies. Europe has, I think, one or 2 more channels than the US. A friend bought one here in the US and took it home to the UK and found he had to change his setting on which channel he used. Of course you know the wall plug would be different too.
