Of course you can but you may have some network issues and your language can be missing.
But it's not less safe than flashing a firmware for your country.

I believe so, however I have been flashing ROMs from different countries and all worked well...the only thing I saw was like when the phone boots up the first time it will tell to detect a language but by default it's the language of the country the ROM it was intended for and another thing is also you may need to change the LANGUAGE/KEYBOARD settings are predictive text settings in the same section to English if they are not set correctly

I purchased a GT-N7105 from Hong Kong and flashed it with the standard New Zealand firmware.
You have to factory reset a few times otherwise the CSC doesn't change. But it works fine.
I'd ignore the modem crap. Everyone talks about it, not a single person has (to my knowledge, love to be proved wrong) ever shown how it can really make any difference at all. Everyone just repeats it because it's what they read.

(I should say, I know that going back to older modem versions can mean you get no signal. But long as you use an up-to-date release you'll be fine. Crap about signal performance etc was what I meant in my previous post)

[Q] Using Sprint ROMs on E975?

Hi guys, I want to use the OpTimuS DE V5.0 ROM from the Sprint Forum. Link -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468979. Is it possible to be used on the E975? If so, are there any files that needs to be edited or any modules that need to be installed? Thanks
I was using a sprint kernel a while ago without any issues. Don't know about ROMs. It may work. Maybe some modifications needed. Create a backup and try it!
Edit: Here's a proper answer for you.

I linked to a post. There's a guy saying that he is rocking that rom on his E975. Also I tried that ROM yesterday. It's full of bloatware. Very annoying. I went back to savyrom v4 as its better imo.

So it is usable on the E975? I was afraid to flash any non E975 roms due to fear of hard bricking. Any risks? Or it is generally safe?

well, i flashed couple roms and kernel from "the other side" and no problems so far. the rom is full of bloatware but pretty much usable. If you don't mind all the crap then i say go ahead. make a backup and trying.
ATM using OpTimuS DE V5.0 @ E975.
It's working well but there's only 5 languages.. English, Espanol and three others (maybe chinese or thailand/similar)
Of course you can use more locale 2 etc. to translate some parts of rom, but i feel annoying to have two different languages in my phone.

It's very simple
Unlocked bootloader and installed cmw with Freegee from google play store.
Then I did data/cache/dalvic wipe and formatted system with cmw
After that I just flashed OpTimuS DE V5.0 LS970 rom.
That's all, everything works like it should.

I think that apn list is only removed from menu, in my case mobile data just worked automaticly on operator DNA, Finland.
So there is apn list for european operators too

4.4.2 KitKat-OmniROM - Mobile Network/ Baseband/IMEI/ Sim Card Problems

Hello all,
Recently flashed the latest OmniROM 4.4.2 KitKat on a Rogers i747 from a 4.3 CarbonROM, but as a result, I no longer have any mobile network connection whatsoever. Can't even make an emergency call. Wifi does work though.
I'm running:
omni-4.4.2-20140205-d2att-HOMEMADE
CWM 6.0.4.7
SuperSU 1.91
and flashed the latest bootloader boot_CWM_I747MVLUEMK5 as I was getting a status 7 error before I did this when flashing the ROM zip.
When I go into Mobile Network settings, it says insert SIM and restart if I try to access Mobile Plan (already tried)`, IMEI and basband is unknown. Basically everything in the phone status menu is unknown or disconnected. I am unable to add APN settings for some reason as I can enter it all but it will not save.
I haven't tried flashing a different radio yet and I cannot seem to find much through searches.
If more info is required for a diagnosis I'll try my best to provide it.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated
Cheers!
Problem solved. Didn't realize no modem was installed.

PLEASE KEEP FOR VISIBILITY
your post saved my phone. I recently flashed a CM11 nightly (cm-11-20140211-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip), was forced to update my bootloader using "boot_CWM_I747MVLUEMK5" in order to do so (would get failed prop bootloader error), and when i booted the phone i lost all signal as well.
Lost IMEI, unknown baseband. Tried to inject IMEI to no avail all day, until i saw this post, with such a simple fix.
THANK YOU
Network is disabled!

You need to find a flashable modem for your phone. Then flash it with twrp cwm or what ever the custom recovery for your phone is.
This forum is for the Samsung galaxy S3 SGH-I747 and SGH-I747M. You should go to the galaxy note forum. I am sure there is some stuff in the development section or read some stickies and the search function is your friend.

Im sorry but why make the same ROM 3 times? There all equivalent, sure changes but could be implemented in one solo ROM no need to make 3 ROM thereads, just updates. If other devs did their work like this will have many ROMs by the same dev. I just dont see no need? Anyhow no disrespect.

No... one point u r right why 3 post? But this is the final one ... As I said this is daily driver. On the other hand with in hundreeds of ROMs none of the post stay more than 2 weeks. All of them gets lost. Any ways... Thanks for your compliment.

Will this erase the sd card on intall?
Not from your external SD. Best you back up your data and restore right after install this 5th element. That will merge all ur data .Other wise you cannot do dirty flash. It does clear system and data for the clean installation.

We Canadians don't have separate forum. As T-Mobile and N900W8 have LTE its very much vice versa to flash this ROM except CSC as this assigned only for Canadians network.
Its a shame We don't have any forum last version of Note 2 post was always listed in AT&T and now in T-Mobile. Sorry for any inconvenience guys...
But this is not the end of the world right?? We are all sharing our experience in the forum and that the main motive right?

He messed up with overclocking (although I told him to stay off if you don't know how to use it) and the phone didn't pass the bootscreens...
So yeah we flashed that firmware... We were glad the phone booted again but a little later we discovered that we could not call... So yeah... That's why I'm here... Can we flash a firmware from uk? Does it matter? I know it matters that it's ATT, International or verizon... But does it matter what country?
So the phone model is a 7100 series?

This?
This is probably a dumb question, but is this firmware compatible with International G955F devices? ( the firmware is China's and I didn't know if it was compatible with other International Varients?)
Thanks for the help -
thank you for the answer - as for why I asked the question? I didn't know (or I forgot) that the Chinese Variant was a Snap Dragon - thank you for the kind and supportive response. You are a role model for how people should treat others who may not have as much knowledge as they do. I wish everyone was as supportive and kind as you are. :cyclops:
That's right, if you don't know something, you ask, otherwise how would you learn?
This is probably a dumb question, but is this firmware compatible with the Hong Kong devices? ( the firmware is China's and I didn't know if it was compatible with Hong Kong variants)
Thanks for the help -
I just got my hand on G9550 this morning. So I'm totally new here. My device is still on Android 7.0. Tried to update, but it says "The latest updates have already been installed". Can I update manually by flashing the new official Android version via odin? If I do so, will it trip my knox? Thanks

Lots of thing I don't really understand with the firmware. Bought used phone, turned out it comes with mixed firmware, TGY/hongkong CSC & AP, but VZW/US BL & CP.
After checking on Sammobile, my current firmware is quite outdated. But when I checked for the update through the settings menu manually, it said that this firmware is the latest. I guess the software update server getting confused since my phone has 2 different regions of firmware.
I'm afraid the previous owner intentionally flash VZW so the phone would work here in my country (not living in China). Can someone please explain it to me, like what might get affected if I change the bootloader & modem, the compatibility, etc? Is there any kind of 'irreversible' firmware? I mean like once the new version is flashed, it can't go back to the older one?
