It'll work exactly the same way
So the Japanese Docomo version is different from the UK or US GSM one?
I always get my android phones from oversea but this time I was thinking to buy it in Japan as I am living here. I don't want to find any sim lock or retarded docomo customization. I tried the Galaxy Nexus in a docomo shop and I didn't find any differences from the one I saw from youtube. Can you confirm that?
Thanks

I've had mine for a couple of days. Seems pretty stock, even the boot screen just says 'Google', a nice refresh.
Differences I've noticed;
Baseband - SC04DOMKKD
SP-Mode shortcut - points to a webpage explaining it's coming soon
No tethering - coming in Jan, supposedly
Course I haven't used a non-JP one, so I could be missing more.
As a note
Kernel - 3.0.1-ge2433f2 [email protected]#1
Build number - ITL41D.SC04DOMKKD
Flashed?
Anyone tried to flash it with a custom rom or an AOSP build?
I'm wondering if the different baseband version will cause any issues.
I'm using ARHD1.3.1 with franco's kernel on docomo SC-04D baseband.
until now, working well smoothy

Hi godelsproof,
I'm a first time android user, so I'm still a bit confused with all the terminology.
Regarding our flat rate data plans, baseband versions have no information related to this right ? I mean, if we change our baseband (to get rid of sim lock), our flat rate plans will still work ok ?
Regarding sim lock, before buying, I talked with Docomo sales rep, and he said that our phones are not sim locked, if we go to our own country, and insert a local sim, it should work. But at least trying my own SIM here says phone is locked, and emergency calls only...
What are the advantages to change to franco's kernel, in Galaxy Nexus? At least on some Nexus S thread, people are saying the performance improves quite a bit... I guess we can get more perf also from our horses ?
Now Im using a sc-04d, and change to xxkk1 baseband sucessful. Just as same as the uk one.
sc-04d has a simlock, but you can go to docomo shop and unlock it .

I think you shold do a bit of searching on this forum about the gnex before posting, also the gnex is sold unlocked worldwide.

I'm a little unclear on a few points, and would appreciate a little more info . I also have a Docomo SC-04D:
1) When you say that you changed the baseband, this means that you flashed the radio right?
2) Can we just use the standard fastboot method for flashing the radio to the direct-from-google radio image, or are there more steps we should do?
3) Are there any disadvantages to changing the baseband?
Thanks!

Ok, so I am trying to figure out what version of the Galaxy S3 I actually own. This was listed as a refurbished I9300 International Unlocked S3 from Amazon.
Upon boot it shows GT-I9300
The sticker on the back of the phone show GT-I9300
Listing phone specs through an app shows - 1.5GB RAM and dual core processor
The ROM information shows GT-I9300 / custom when trying to flash any new roms(the flashes always fail)
When the phone is put into download mode it shows SGH-I747
I am attempting to flash a new custom rom but it fails no matter if I choose I747 or I9300 versions. Cannot for the life of me figure out what this phone actually is to see if I need to attempt flashing new firmware. Any help is greatly appreciated.
i believe the playstore has an app called android info. it might give some insight , or it might tell you the same. but maybe worth a try.(?).
"all I can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
The phone info app will show you the model number for your bootloader. The bootloader model number is correct. I have had a similar problem with my S3. I had to open it with a screwdriver. And the model number on the motherboard matched the bootloader model number.
If you have a terminal emulator installed on the phone you can bet the bootloader version by entering this command:
Code:
getprop ro.bootloader
Actually i am from nepal. I bought a samsung galaxy note 4 in Malaysia two weeks ago and now i am back to my country. but now the problem is that it shows model number sm-n910f in about divice. also i was told that it was sm-n910f at the purchase time.
but if i enter to recovery mode it is showing LRX22C.N910AUCUCU2C0C6 and in download mode it's showing
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N910A
and if i connect it to kies it shows sm-910f . also if use some google play apps to find my phone model number, some of apps shows sm-910f and some shows sm-910a .
This is why i am really confused that what actually is my phone's model number is.
please help me to find my model number .
and below are some attachment of my phone detail

But in about divice its says sm-910f and it is diffrent in flash mode. So what should i do? Shall i flash 910f firmware or 910a firmware. Plz help me I wanna flash my phone to latest android version and wanna root.
Preface: I'm old man and this is my first post feeling exhausted after reading topics I don't fully understand. Please bear with me.
My trusty old Note 2 has had some issues that made me to look for a replacement Note 2 (I spare you for the reasons why still Note 2). Few days ago I won an eBay auction and received an unlocked GT-N7100 supposed to be new.
The very first I did was install of Phone Info Samsung app. This app told my new phone was rooted and Firmware region was Hong Kong. I did a test phone call to my friend: OK, worked normal. Then I took several screenshots of Phone Info's reports, and did the same on my old Note 2 for comparison.
My main concern was to unroot this phone to ensure some for me essential apps would function on it after migration from my old Note 2. I followed online guide and successfully flashed with the H-K firmware N7100ZSUFNJ2. I understood this same region version was required but later I could flash firmware of my choice, the same Nordic I have on my old.
After reboot I tried to make phone call: Not registered on network. I thought first this problem appeared because of firmware and downloaded and flashed Nordic N7100XXSFQA1: the same network problem. The SIM card is the same I use on my old Note 2. More search led me to this possible solution: "How to fix not registered on network" (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2745274)
Unfortunately flashing MODEM.tar.md5 didn't solve my problem. So far I had not paid attention to the different IMEI on the label vs dialing *#06# / displayed by Phone Info. This different IMEI was the same before my unrooting process. How come I could make phone call despite this error, it's beyond me?
Another issue on this new phone is that when S-Pen is inserted it claims pen is detached, and when pulled out the S-note won't appear. How come, can be solved?
Please experts, help me to solve this problem. I am ready to supply more info if required.

First thing I recommend is booting into download mode to confirm the model number. Download will show the actual model number.

Did you try flashing the latest gt-n7100 rom for Hong Kong since that is the firmware that came with the phone?

Yes, I did successfully.
The latest ROM I see for Hong Kong is qa2: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note-/GT-N7100/TGY/download/N7100ZSSFQA2/126556/

I understood the firmware version should be the same in order to unroot successfully. Right now downloading the linked version. Thank so far.
After flashing with linked FW
So I downloaded the file you linked to. Here are screenshots of Phone INFO, on the left before any flashing, on the right after this latest. Need for any other screens?
The bootloader on the left is older at nj2 mixed with qa2. Weird that there is no CSC information.
The picture on the right is more consistently qa2.
The phone you purchased was definitely not new as the IMEI from the dialler should match the IMEI on the phone's printed label.
If flashing the latest firmware doesn't solve the calling issue, not sure what else to suggest other than trying firmware for a different country or a custom ROM.

You asked for CSC info, well here three screenshots. On the left my eBay Note 2 initially, the red in middle is my own Note 2, and on the right eBay after all flashing so far.
EDIT: I forgot to insert SIM on ebay Note2 before screenshot. When inserted the MobileOperator reads elisa / 24405. Interesting, the "24421" missing. Saunalahti was subsidiary of elisa, now merged to main company.
I've read that the differing IMEI issue can be cause if you flashed firmware that contains a lower version modem than what you already had. You can try flashing the latest bootloader and modem for this device with Odin (download in this post). Extract the .rar file and place the file starting with BL in the BL tab and CP in the CP tab in Odin.

I followed your suggestion and flashed but unfortunately this did not solve my network problem.
The CSC changed to Hong Kong because that's what was in the rom you flashed.

What puzzles me is that this eBay Note before unrooting gave empty fields on Firmware's CSC Code and CSC Country. I'm here flashing the Nordic ROM back again.

Thank you for this, but again after flashing network problem stays. Well, it's midnight here in Helsinki, had to go to bed....
After flashing a stock ROM, are you able to try other sim cards in the phone?
Search result on tampered IMEI
Curious as I am I tested the IMEI displayed by dialing *#06# on three databases. One couldn't tell, two others told this phone were Ericson A3618s. Wow!
On the other hand, Phone INFO's General claims this Note 2 were White while in reality Titanium grey.
Have you made any further progress?
Is it possible that the imei on the battery label has been blacklisted which is why the motherboard was programmed with another imei?
Try entering both imei numbers here: https://www.mobileincanada.com/

Thanks for caring about this problem still. The Canadian site looks more about unlocking. My previous post told about search result from http://www.imeipro.info/ stating the imei on label is clean. I just re-visited another database for second time http://www.imei.info and there I had to pay for Black list check which takes up to 48 hours.
BTW I have kept eye on eBay and wonder how Note 2s are flooding there... Although the seller won't accept returns I wrote request to return in hope eBay takes this as resolution... have to wait a couple of days before that process may start.
Hello
I bought a used s9 a few months back. It had dual sim. In "about phone" it said G960F and was on android 9. A few days ago, I wanted to flash android 10 so I downloaded firmware for G960F, booted my phone in download mode and SURPRISE. The whole thing was in Korean and of course it was a G960N model. So I downloaded firmware for G960N this time and flashed it. Everything went perfect but when the phone booted up, It had no sim service.
I've tried everything I've found on the forums so far related to emergency calls only or no sim service.
Any kind of help would be appreciated. I have no sim service for 5 days now.
Things I've tried so far:
Flashing my phone again with android 9 stock firmware, which I can't do anymore as I've updated the bootloader lol.
Flashing custom roms
Changing csc from SKC to KOO
Flashing OXM CSC as I live in Pakistan
Flashing different modems and basebands
Nothing worked
Try flashing back a G960F android 10 firmware.

Done all of that. No luck
OK, let's go back to beginning: you've bought the used phone. 960F never was (as factory leaving) dual sim phone.
so, let's start from the beginning:
contact the seller and ask what the hell have you bought (if it was any variant of the S9 at all.. somehow I doubt it).
2nd: write down the IMEI and serial number, and check with Samsung if this configuration ever existed (if not, what I suppose, the IMEI/sn info about the REAL model can give you a hint what have you bought).
Having the above info in hands, find the "service firmware", 5 files ROM for your device and try to flash it.
If it will not work still, I'm afraid you have two options:
1. check IMEI against stolen devices with your carrier.
2. Go to Samsung service asking for help.
(if it was any variant of the S9 at all.. somehow I doubt it).

Well mostly it isn't a fake mediatek phone as it will not even have a download mode.
Probably he bought a shi**ily refurbished phone with it's internals mixed from multiple versions of the s9, in the best case.(a Frankenstein variant of the S9)

I'm going to solve this mystery for both of you. The phone he bought is indeed an S9. Here in Pakistan, 'software' guys in shops can convert these to dual sim models with some z3x and Chimera f*kery.
As for why his phone isn't working - it is because the phone had a tampered IMEI to bypass local custom charges levied on all imported phones (insane charges, doubles the price of these kinda phones). Once he flashed a new image on his phone, his IMEI status would have become NG instead of OK, which prevents the phone from accessing any networks.
Solution is to visit the same 'software' guys, ask them to 'patch' the phone. It is a 5 minute process, requires root (which these phones already have).
