Hi All,
I bought the GS3 on a UK contract with t-mobile, however I immediately gave the sim to my other half, and instead chose to use my virgin sim card.
Do I still use the rooting guide stated for the GS3 t-mobile version?
(upon inserting the virgin sim the phone asked me what provider to use t-mobile or virgin...)
Help would be appreciated.
Coops
if you have a UK Galaxy S3 wouldn't that mean you have the non-US "international" version ?
In which case your phone is totally different from the one TMo is giving to us American folk... I'd ask in the 9300 forum to be honest.

bell stated that the note 2 will get the 4.3 update starting november 29, 2013 but noted "timing varies by device and carrier/retailer"
so here the story
i got this phone from mobilicity and currently using it under bell service. So my question is; who do i get the updates from? bell or mobilicity?
thanks
Neither: the updates come from Samsung. In your case using a T889V, you'll have to look at the Wind/Mobilicity/Videotron release schedule.
Hello people. If you go to the Sammobile website you will see that there are many official releases for Galaxy Note P-600 Wi-Fi 10.1 2014 version. I still don't see an official release for UBUCNH2 base band. I wonder if there is another baseband I could use as a functional substitute for my device. Eventhough I don't have any carrier the device model appears under the Telcel carrier at Mexico. In Chile they have the same baseband.
Im asking this because is so annoying that the updates take almost 2 years and I will love to have a ROM which respects all the S-Pen functionalities.
Thanks guys for kind help. Greetings.
Hello!
I am considering buying a Galaxy S9 today. I want to keep it on Oreo if possible due to wanting to use GravityBox. However, it is the T-Mobile version of the phone. Does this make a difference? I know with the Google Pixel you cannot unlock the bootloader if it is the Verizon version of the phone. Was just wondering if this is the case here with the T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S9. Thanks so much in advance.
Can't root any american s9's.
Welp Samsung just lost my business
You can root the european ones though, you can find them on ebay easily.
I'm in the US and my Exynos S9 came in the mail today and it already has the Pie update and will be rooted as soon as I get home. I recommend everyone buy the Exynos versions when possible.
Greetings;
I've pre-ordered an Aura Glow, 256 GB plus the Galaxy Buds as a free bonus! from Samsung.ca
The trade in program wouldn't work for me as OnePlus isn't included in the program.
Delivery August 23.

If I order an unlocked one from samsung.com, will it work here with Canadian carrier(Fido)? They are offering $600 US trade in for a Note 9, and samsung.ca is offering $380 CND? Really?

They're offering $0 on the s10 plus. Samsung US is also offering $600 for the Pixel 3 XL and its not o. The list. I entered my Pixel 3XL info as if it were a Pixel 3 and the offer was $130.
I tweeted Samsung Canada for some kind of answer and all I got was crickets! ???

Is it possible to order a US Note 10 from Canada? If they are unlocked, then they should be able to work here. AT $500 US after trade in its a MUCH better deal than here at $100 CND after (max)trade in.
got mine yesterday with the buds and damn this phone is nice.
I've got the unlocked Samsung.com version. Can I simply flash the Canadian firmware (want Samsung Pay) in Odin?
What deal did you get from Sam.com?
any cdn users with an F variant?
what's working and what's not working cdn carrier wise?
edit
anyways if anyone wants to try out a note 10 csc pack. please report any issues and save logs aswell.
make a backup first .

Canadian vs US variant
I can find pick up the US unlocked variant for the same price as the Canadian unlocked variant (including the exchange rate difference) and the US variant has some additional LTE bands that aren't currently used in Canada, but other than that is there any advantage of one variant over the other? Are firmware updates, Samsung Pay, etc. about the same on both phones?

You might miss out on some features like VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling. Depending on who you're wireless provider is. Other little things too. Like seeing 4G instead of LTE. It might be possible to flash the Canadian firmware but I don't know for sure. That still might not give you access to all the features I mentioned before.

I got my unlocked Note 10+ Aura from Best Buy when they had the trade-in deal, $400 if trading in a Note phone + $500 for my Note 9, so I got $900 in total with Best Buy's trade-in offer, I'm loving my Note 10+.
When we are the last in the world to get firmware updates and fixes, like right now, I miss international version and root so much.

I asked Samsung Canada via chat about possible October firmware that is supossed to give us security patch and native rcs supporting all providers on native SMS app (prefer it over Google app because I can pin important conversations), and fingerprint issue patch.
Was waiting to connect for a while.
They apologized for wait, apparently lots of people asking support. Told them what's up, they asked for imei, and asked me to wait,............ 20 min later... "did you try updating through settings?"
WTF!
Guess that explains long wait at the beginning.
Oh. Almost forgot. Samsung Canada mentions fingerprint patch only for s10, +, and e. The guy on chat also said. "Patch is coming to s10, 10+, 10e, 10 5g, note 10, 10+,...."... wait s10 5g? Dumbfounded. Talk about Canadian support
Turned off the chat.
Fingerprint update patch came out on the 24th of Oct. for me, Note 10 Plus model from Samsung experience store.
Got android 10 update on Canadian Galaxy Note 10+ SM-N975W today .
N975W and N975U1 are identical in hardware. The U1 firmware will work perfectly fine on the W and in Canada. Im currently running Android 10 star wars U1 firmware on W phone with Koodo. Everything works perfectly and APN was setup automatically. FYI for anyone who wants to flash using Odin. Just make sure your Note 10+ is unlocked first.
I'm with Fido, I see that the firmware has been on Sammobile from Monday but no updates as yet from Fido. Who are you with
