[Q] updated phone while on holiday in Asia broke s note - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Just got back to UK from holiday in Asia
Now S Note is broken, just crashes. I think this is connected to language selection.
I have 2 downloaded input languages for samsung keyboard, English UK and Thai but cannot delete either. other languages i download can be deleted.
There are 2 possible reasons for the Thai having being downloaded
The guy where I bought the local sim in Bangkok downloaded it or the more likely reason of a major update being installed while in Bangkok.
I have tried factory reset but Thai still downloaded.
any ideas how I can remove Thai download?
phone details are:
Note 2 n7105
android: 4.1.2
baseband: N7105NEDMJ2
Build Number: JZ054KN7105XXDMJ1
Thanks for any help.

My phone is not rooted and I do not mind either way.
I have reinstalled using Kies still got dual language though.
Many thanks

U can check your csc And see what's your phone sales code. U can change the sakes code by entering a code in the phone dialer and then update the firmware. Cant remember of u need root

[Q] Flashing a foreign language firmware

Hi good people of XDA,
I bought my Galaxy Note 2 in the UK but the firmware does not support the handwriting recognition in Czech language /unlike Notes 2 sold in Czech Republic/. I found the official Czech firmware online but am not sure if it's safe to flash onto the UK model? Obviously dont want to end up with a brick. Any ideas? Thank so much!
You can safely flash roms of any country.

On this web they suggest its not advisable: http://www.geekyandroid.com/2012/10...e-download-jelly-bean-4.1.1.html#comment-form
IMP : It is assumed that you are sound enough to not flash a rom that is not for your device. Ex, flashing German rom on US device.

No no. If you have n7100 then you can flash any rom for n7100.
Us devices are different than international version.

As long as you flash a ROM of the same phone model. Sometimes countries have sppecial model just for them. For example China have the N7108 which is only for China Mobile.
But if the phone is N7100 there is no problem.

[Q] What region code for uk firmware on galaxy note 2

I'm trying to unroot the phone as I cant get any network and to see it will work on that, if not take it in for a replacement. I tried a new sim card but still nothing Can anyone help please?
Regards
Sammobile.com/firmwares
Right in the search n7100
Search for one with UK region.
Btw, if you have no IMEI Code, or starts with 00.. Check android development section for fix.. Or I think thunder rom fixes that too

Galaxy Note 2 (International) GT-N7100 CHN N7100ZCUEMK3 Android 4.3 11.11.2013 2010080
Has anyone tried this firmware? Is it stable?

The firmware is for China,I f your phone is N7100,you shouldn't face any problem..so go for it.But,Beware it might contain KNOX enabled bootloder,so do some research before flashing..
Gud luck.

Hi ,
Don't flash this ROM for Indonesia version of Note 2.
The boot loader for China Note 2 is different from International ones.
There are strong reasons, that you may brick your phone. Thanks
Hi there,
Sorry to resurrect a month old thread. I just wanted to chuck my findings at this as I have recently received a GT-N7100 CHN N7100ZCUEMK3 Galaxy Note 2 as a birthday present from my wife. And if anybody could recommend any suggestions that would be great!
As I now live in the UK as opposed to China I was getting frustrated that I couldn't use Google Play and the default search engine is Baidu and can't be changed to Google, so i've been trying for the past few days to flash it but it just won't work.
I've been downloading only the official stock roms for the international N7100 and so far i've tried 10 versions from various regions (Europe, UK, India, US) and none of them work. Some fail the moment you hit start on Odin, others will go through the entire process and fail at the end - thus soft bricking my mobile.
Luckily I have been able to use Kies to restore it - which I've installed on the laptop as opposed to my PC which is doing the flashing - but this just puts it back to Chinese mode.
I should also note that the China version is Knox enabled - mine is now burned so anybody else trying this really ought to be careful.

Sorry to resurrect so old thread, but I have an exact same phone with that firmware from China, and wanted to put either the international version or cyanogenmod on it. So did you ever get anything besides China roms installed?

Unfortunately this phone note 4 n910a at&t only you can install roms of this model in specific, try to install another rom different from this, it can be unusable. Even if you are in version 6.0.1, until now as far as I know there is no way to make it root.
If you are still in rom 5.0.1, make it temporary root I install language enable, maybe with that you let put the Polish language.
