Awaiting the delivery of my INTL N7100 and was wondering what others in the US are doing in regards to updates to the stock ROM. I have seen at least 1 thread where they set update region to the US and eventually started getting OTA updates but I am still unclear if this really works to get the latest from Samsung. If you are a user of the N7100 in the US what are you doing?
Also if it am sent an Asian or EU variant of the N7100 can any of these be flashed with the UK Rom?
P.S., Rooting is not an option for now. I want to stay bone stock with the ROM.
Thanks in advance!
You can flash any international note 2 with any international note 2's software from among the 126 supported.

Download Samsung Kies (full version, not just wifi). Install it and then connect your Note 2 via USB. When it fully connects it will show any stock ROM updates available. I have an international Note 2 in the U.S. and this works fine for me and I've received a few ROM updates in the last couple months.
Cheers

Out of curiosity which countries stock rom do you prefer, and does it have US English localization or UK English. For instance favor vs. favour.
Thanks again for all the replies.

I think mine came set up for UK English, but you can set it for any language. And you don't have a preference for ROM updates -- they're all the same.
I'm using my T-mobile Jump tomorrow to get a Note 3. Of course, the first thing I'm going to do is: open the box, plug the phone in, then root it. I don't know much about this phone since I have been using an HTC One running Cyanogen Mod. So, My question is, what's the best way to unlock the Note 3's full potential? I.e: I see many root solutions, which do you prefer and why? By rooting and installing custom recovery (TWRP, CWM, ect), am I able to use ROMS on the International Samsung Galaxy Note 3 forums, or am I limited to T-Mobile only offerings? I wouldn't consider myself a NOOB, or a Dev, just an enthusiast who wants to help other enthusiasts, please leave your advice and experiences below.

First thing you need to do is to learn about KNOX, there are dozens of threads related to KNOX so
it's easy to find.
If your new phone is a NOTE 3 and you don't read up on the KNOX issue but simply go and root the
phone your warranty might be void afterwards.
You need to read up on the official 4.3 rom & the MK2 baseband which all new NOTE 3 phones have
before you root or flash any cwm/twrp flashable zip files including roms and kernels.
Once you decide what to do about the KNOX and still want to root your phone and flash custom roms
I would highly suggest to only flash roms in the Tmobile Note 3 forum, & only flash those roms which
are based on Tmobile 4.3 Jellybean Touchwiz firmwares.
Flashing any other roms will result in loosing the ability to use free tmobile wifi calling as well as loosing
most all of the bells and whistle which makes the NOTE 3 such a great phone.
In my experience with custom roms, the Wicked & Darthstalker roms are the only 2 that I would even consider flashing.
Do a lot of reading before you decide or do anything.
Good luck!
Vision X will work just fine, give it a look see also....

You can flash N9005 on your n900T. I used TWRP to flash Xnote Rom Bobcat Rom and Pro Bam rom. Also i flashed knoraid rom(AT&T) jus make sure you flash a t-mobile kernel.

Yes, I flashed the Bobcat 3.0 rom too, and it looks like a Million Dollars, best LOOKING rom I have
ever seen... BUT unless the dev who created it can get himself a N900T Tmobile Note 3 phone to
test with, we will never have wifi calling if we flash the Bobcat International Note 3 rom.
I flashed it a few hours ago and am still debating with myself if I want to keep it or not. LOL
Hello!
I have a SM-N900T Baseband N900TUVUBMI7. But unfortunately, there is no Russian System language (not possible to enable it through the setting.)
I live in Russia, in this regard, I have a couple of questions:
1. Does the Russian language in international ROM?
2. What ROM you can recommend with support Russian system language and the maximum cut off apps from T-mobile and ather (consist only samsung apps)?
This "abundance" is useless for me.
I would be very grateful for the link to the thread of this ROM.
P.S.Sorry for the poor english.
Can i Flash 4.4.2 Leaked for SM-N9005 on SM-N900T?.
Hi, can i flash roms for sm-n9005 on my t-mobile note 3?? specially the leaked 4.4.2 kit kat? Thank you.

Here is the link for Bobcatrom v3 EVO XDA thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498687
Here is the direct download link for Bobcatrom v3 EVO rom:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319196459
After flashing this rom on a N900T Galaxy Note 3 phone you will not have
Wifi, Bluetooth or NFC until you flash this wifi-bluetooth-nfc-FIX.zip file.
So you need to flash the rom first, set it all up so it's working properly then
go back into cwm/twrp custom recovery and flash the fix file below:
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/...en900T/Needed_Files_BT_WIFI_NFC_Flashable.zip
After you flash the fix file, wifi, bluetooth and nfc will all work fine.
Good luck!

Sure you can, you can flash the 4.4.2 kitkat but don't expect everything to work properly,
especially wifi, data and many other things in it still need fixing.
That's why it's called a "leak"..
Good luck!
Does N900T have Russian language as a system language? I intend to root the phone and install Language Enabler from the market. The app reveals hidden languages but before I proceed I'd like to make sure that the phone does have Russian (hidden in it).
Thank you.
Hi, I have similar problem as escudovod1972. Live in the UK and have the T-mobile version (SM-N900T) of the note 3. Would like to have Russian and Lithuanian languages but keep the phone as close to stock as possible.
Was wondering if I could achieve this, by flashing one of these:
"International SM-N9005 Galaxy Note 3 Stock Firmware"
Will I need to flash a T-Mobile kernel separately?
Also if this works, will I loose any functionality?
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

Has anyone got any links for this? I have a friend in Russia, who is using a T-mobile Note 3 - he is able to use an app to switch to Russian, however, the System Language is still in English. Its Rooted, Stock, Currently. Running 4.4.2 I believe.
Specifics would be great! Thanks All - Be Well.

You can flash a unified rom aka hlte (more info: http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/unified-builds) like cyanogen, carbon rom(using this on my N3 Tmobile in UK just now), AOKP and many more(safe to say that all have Russian), if you like the AOSP/AOKP look. Or go for X-note or other touch wiz based unified roms.
Anyways, take a look here for more info and rom lists: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3#romList
Hope this helps

N9005XXUENE3 = 4.4.2 = Build date: Wed, 28 May 2014 08:59:36 +0000 = Russia (MegaFon)
I have this rom at my site, I make all kinds of roms... made this just a while ago... just flash the rom, http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=devices&uid=9390248398092763634
I try all the roms, before posting them, make a backup then flash the rom,,, N9005XXUENE3_hlte_Stock_Odex_Not_Rooted_NoKnox.zip
I would not advise flashing the firmware... your rooted, its safer just flashing the rom...
I just made a UK rom earlier today, using this one, I was using Singapore for the past 3 or 4 days... I like using the newest rom...
Hello guys i am newbie here from Turkey Istanbul
I used note 10.1 original one and then updated to 2014 edition because there was no update after 4.1.2
now its a de javu... my question is , is it clever to root and flash custom rom or stick with stock rom and wait for official updates?
I would like to flash custom rom but if there will be an official update that makes exynos works much more efficient and with new touchwiz i will devastate.
So guys i need opinions with clever reasons...
thanks a lot....
Why not do both? You can always go back to stock after rooting and it is likely the devs will get their hands on any release before it comes out officially.

Yess right but i use my note as a pc do all my works and my media on this tab so it is always hard and painfull for me to reset the tab.
I know no one has opinion about the date of official updates but it will come in a month i can sti k but if it will take decades i'll flash rom immedieatly
and also read that with custom roms we can use 4 multiapp function am i right.
and last question what is the best custom rom for our tab? Any opinions¿
I hear you... It can be... I've used titanium backup and it makes it less painful.
You are right, we never know when. Definitely can use any app you want for multi-window and yes there are 4 Windows available.

From my expirenece custom roms are totally unneccary on up to date devices.... if you want customisation get xposed installer .... stock rom gives you stability & all features .... debloat with titanium and youre totally fine .... get your neet extra features with xposed isntaller & gravity box / wanam exposed modules...
its funny when i ask ppl what their custom rom gives them .. they cant name a single feature I cant get on stock ....
if you have an old device with outdated firmware its another story

Yes you can use a N9005 international rom with tmobile, however you will loose the ability
of the wifi calling feature.
Also you will need to flash a wifi/bluetooth/nfc fix zip file after flashing international roms.
Note: this fix will only work on the Tmobile N900T phones so don't even look at AT&T or
Verizon Note 4 or Note 3 phones.
P.s. don't get the AT&T model of the Note 3 or Note 4, all the AT&T phones have locked
bootloaders which means that even after it's rooted it will require of flashing/installing
safe-strap which limits which roms you will be able to flash.
Any roms which use the Aroma installer will not work and are not compatible with any AT&T phones.
Most of the better custom roms all use the Aroma installer.
Good luck!

The wifi fix mod does not come with any of the roms, but if you like
you are welcome to download it here and save it for future reference:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/WifiFixN900TV2.zip
Just remember that this fix is only for the N9005 international roms and
is not intended or needed if you flash a tmobile rom.
Tmobile phones do not need safe-strap because their bootloader are not locked.
The Verizon Note 3 or 4 is even worst than the AT&T models, even less
compatibility with roms and mods and their bootloaders are also locked.
Good luck!
