Hello guys, I made the mistake of buying the at&t version of the S 8.4 and would have like to either flash a light rom or at least debloat the thing but can't find anything here. Is that model persona non grata around these parts? Or am I missing something?

Not currently rootable, therefore no roms and no de-bloat.
Return and get International version.

That's what I did... international version was cheaper, has more functionality, and is nicely hackable. Only tiny downside is the slightly bronze color doesn't perfectly match the silver casing of the AT&T keyboard case I bought. Loving this thing though.
I believe SM-T705 does not work with Tmobile LTE.

i would love to try out new roms and fully utilize my awesome i467 note 8.0
this locked bootloader sucks
im willing to even pay .
moderator if i posted in the wrong section , please remove.
There´s no need to unlock bootloader to try any ROM I think...
You just have to check if your Note 8 is the N5100, N5110 or N5120 version, that I think in your case is the N5120

I would pay too. A only partially functional 4.1.2 is not ideal. Screen lag is killing me.
Yes the i467 is a different variation, and I agree the screen lag really sucks. I wish someone could help us.... it would be a great xmas presant ; p aaaaaand id give you a night with my sexy korean gf
It's just rather strange and irritating that there is no support in here for the U.S. variant (SGH-i467). I bought mine from AT&T .. should have look on here first before getting it !!

not sim unlock bootloader unlock 2 seperate things
Guys, sorry but we're all basically screwed on this one! Unlocking the bootloader on this device just isn't going to happen. Even if it did my some miracle, there's no one that wants to build a custom rom for it. There's barely anyone that wants to build a rom for the wifi version! This device never really just caught on in popularity like some others. My advice is to just take the bite like I did and get something else. I'm sure you could find someone out there that doesn't care about an unlocked bootloader that'll take it off your hands. It does suck but that's just the way it is.
Trust me, I learned the hard way too!!! If it helps I would recommend a Nexus 7 2013. It's not to expensive and there are tons of roms out there. Even if you don't root it or unlock it it's already updated to 4.4.2. Well, anyways, everyone have a Merry Christmas!!!!!

U can try the Nexus franchise!!! Pure android!!! Different devices, different experience!!! Sony products ate pretty complicated as I used to have a Z1!!! LG is fine but I dont like the software, I dont know abt you!!! The samsung, they used to have bad support to the customer (updates...) but its ok now, pretty fast recently!!! But for any brands, I would prefer the international version which u can fine the brand new on Amazon- I mean from Amazon dealer not someone else!!!

Yes, you can use your phone with T-Mobile, but I'm not sure if the phone will work 100% with their data and network.
Someone will need to clarify on that for you.
For sure, you will not be able to receive updates through T-Mobile. Your phones are still ATT, so they require ATT firmware. In order to receive ATT OTA updates, you have to have an active ATT sim.
However, you can still use Odin to flash your phones with the latest ATT firmwares. You'll be able to find the Odin files here on XDA a couple weeks after a firmware is launched via OTA.

Hello there.
I'm about to receive one of these from Gearbest, and from what I've read, it's likely that it will come with WW software but the device itself it's the CN version.
I already have bookmarked the tutorial to flash everything to WW, but my doubt is, what about LTE bands? Is it really possible to unlock all bands? How?
Is there anything anyone can recommend for this device regarding roms and mods?
Thank you in advance.
I know that the question may be a little noob-ish, or even a bit stupid (I don't know), but please, can anyone help?
its seems that nobody have this phone. Im going to buy one in aliexpress, it looks like a great phone but, without suport.
When and if you two get these phones and depending on what they are which you dont know at the minute, there is a forum for ze551ml which covers everything from bricked devices to changing LCDs

No need to be ironic man, I have my fair share of XDA experience, I just never came across a region-specific device that inspite having the same hardware worldwide, doesn't have all network frequencies available on every baseband... What I asked basically was, is it really possible to have all LTE bands available on a CN device, and secondly, based on users experience here, is there any rom, kernel or mod that you can recommend...

Mine is from Gearbest, it's not a fake, but the problem is... They only sell the CN version of the Zenfone, and what they do to sell it to Euro users is flash the WW version of the firmware but they don't convert the device fully. Anyway, for 123 euros is still not a bad deal, considering its the 4gb ram version.

I currently have the mate 20 pro and it has the green screen issue. So... Sadly I'm sending it back, I was going to swap it for another though amazon advised me not to. They also refunded the accessories I purchased which supprised me. I now don't know whether to try to import a mate 20 X or settle for the 6t. I would be grateful if anyone with the 20x could help me decide and answer a few questions?
I haven't seen any threads about it. But has anyone had any issues with the screen?
I've read some people have had problems with the Chinese version, when looking at adverts how do I make sure the phone I'm buying is the international version? Most don't say they just give the model number.
Is there an 8gb/256 version of the international model? Does enyone have an ebay link for where I could get it sent to the UK?
Does anyone have any reasons why I shouldn't consider getting this phone?
Thanks for your help.
I don't have the phone (at least yet) but i'm following closely all threads because i'm very interested too and i never see anyone complaining about the gluegate, even a reviewer frankytech thinks its only targeting pro series because of the curved screen.
If you want to buy international version you need to check if the model is named EVR-L29, china model is AL00. There's no international model atm in 256/8GB variant. About sellers to the international, there's splendor, wonda, funkyhuawei, expansys and ebay. Probably more but i forgot.

Would you recommend the Chinese model?
Is it easy to add the play store? Are there any issues with Google services? e.g. Google pay? As I use that a lot.
I bought an xaomi tablet and that took a lot of effort to get Google app store and services working properly.
Also I was wondering does face unlock work OK on this phone? I know it doesn't have the 3d scanner.

I came from a OnePlus 6. Definitely get the 20 X if you like large screen phones. The X uses a Samsung AMOLED panel and is free of defects. I would buy the Global version if root isn't important to you. If it is then buy the Chinese version. I bought the Global version and have no issues with it. The 6gb/128 Global version is plenty fast. You won't see any difference between the 6gb and 8gb versions as far as speed or apps in memory goes, it's all pretty much a gimmick unless you're buying the 256gb/8gb version just for the storage size.

The storage was the main reason I ended up going for the Chinese version.
I'm worried about Google pay not working on Chinese phones but I'm hoping the rest will end up working OK.
Hopefully someone will work out how to rebrand it so I can have the best of both worlds.

Specifically looking for 4G LTE and mobile Hotspot to be working correctly. Is this possible, or should i stick with H932 (V30) and root that instead?

Gah. you just sealed it. I'm glad that I didn't make the purchase as of yet. But my suspicions it looks like I was correct. I was debating either upgrading all the way to v40 but it looks like development hasn't gone very far either. though I would like the five camera setup and the portrait mode of the two front facing cameras I don't know if it is worth it as having root plus access custom roms is what I'm really looking for. It looks like development for the v30 is where I need to be. Plus I have all the tools necessary to root it. I've actually rooted it before but the phone was stolen for me
Can it really be that a two-year-old smartphone is really the best bet? I can buy 2 v30s for the price of one v40
