Wondering if anyone knows of a method/place to determine the manufacture date of my used Note 8 I just picked up....everything works great, registered it w/Samsung (gave me another 50gb dropbox), and happy thus far .
I sold my Nexus 7, regardless of the better resolution, I wanted the Note's larger screen/ratio.
thanks for any direction...couldn't find anything myself so thought I'd consult the experts!!
(Oh, it's a GT-N5110 currently on 4.1.2, Jun 13, ...MF2 and downloading some update...don't know which one):cyclops:
Yes there is,

I found it today accidentally.
Was looking for something about firmware updates for my brand new Note 8 that just arrived today.
I wen to samsung website and decided to register it.
As soon as you will type in your serial number it will provide you with manufacture date below the box with the serial number.
Just visit the us site of samsung - i didnt see it on uk or ie website.
Hope this helps.
mine was manufactured in early January 2013......
Hi everyone. Has anyone seen replaceable back battery covers for sale for the Zenfone 2? I know Asus are shouting about the different colours and designs on the Zenfone 2 website, but I can't find anywhere to buy them.

I haven't seen anything available yet either. I'm sure we'll find out more info about availability on Monday.
Does anyone know the box dimensions of the 5t??
Its probably the same as the 5.
Can someone help me please.
i found this thread for the oneplus 3. Which is probably similar.

Hi all, I'm Mike and I'm new to the group. I was Wondering if anyone could give me an insite to something I got told a few days ago. I have a Samsung series 6 as it says in the title above. A relation of my partners came to visit us over Christmas and explained that the TV we have, the firmware could be upgraded to the 4k firmware because its already 4k enabled when it left the factory? Is this true? If so where could I get the firmware from for it? Personally myself I don't believe them, But 4k did come out around the same time as my TV. I have spent some time looking but can't really find any info on it. Any help or info is appreciated. Thankyou all.
Hey everyone,
i have a new ROG phone 6 tencent CN version, id like to convert to Globla firmware, can i anyone share steps to do so? i have the global firmware zip downloaded from Asus, but not sure if i need to unlock bootloader, and how to flash that zip.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Use the phone with cn rom for a while until official files are released don't do anything without making sure or you will brick your device we don't know asus plans for now

Thanks for the reply mate. I can see the bootloader Unlock tool and global firmware as well as source code on Asus website for rog 6, what other files do we need to wait for ?
Also, I would use the phone with cn firmware but problem is google / firebase notifications don't work on that firmware , as is the issue with many Chinese phones with google services manually installed.

You'll have to excuse me for being so blunt, but...
You're not asking for help and offering a donation. You're asking if you can pay someone to convert your phone, which is a violation of the rules.
The rest of the original post is also irrelevant, as it was posted in the ROG Phone 5 section. What appeared to be a typo was actually asking about a different phone.

You're not asking for help and offering a donation. You're asking if you can pay someone to convert your phone, which is a violation of the rules. There are two guides already here on how to do it (one for each series), along with hundreds of posts where people hastily attempted to fly through them and wiped their IMEI. Of the three threads you spammed this message on, one even happened to be the guide for yours.
Repair ROG Phone 5S through edl firmware, no need to unlock Bootloader to modify COUNTRY CN to WW
Success is disgusted by some people, and will not share any files for free in the future.

Hi Mr Twisted Umbrella
I Appreciate your response. I think there is a misunderstanding. I offered a donation for someone to create a guide for ROG phone 6, which can be posted on XDA so hundreds of others can benefit as well. Sorry if it sounded like i wanted to pay someone to do my work.
I have already read through all of the forums that i have spammed (apologies again) and also the link you just sent above. All of them are written for ROG 5 and 5S. All the batch files and etc reference ROG phone 5 and 5S, hence why i wasnt sure whether i am safe to use the exact same guide and files with my ROG Phone 6.
I didnt want to brick a brand new rog phone 6. hence why I asked for help here, apologies if it came off the wrong way.
Anyway, id appreciate any help anyone can give me. i currently have a useless rog 6 sitting with me as push notifications dont work with CN firmware

Part of it could be that you made all of your posts in the ROG Phone 5 section, making it appear to be a typo. Hundreds of others won't benefit from having to look in the wrong place to stumble onto it.

Just wait for someone to post a guide rog 6 isn't available in my country yet
Could you please tell how much ram and storage is tencent rog 6?
And the price?
Tencent ROG 6 comes in several variants:
8GB RAM/128GB* Flash(~700 USD)
12/128*(~700-800 USD)
12/256(~900-1000 USD)
16/512(~1100-1200 USD)
18/512 Pro(~1400+ USD)
All regular models are available in black or white, Pro is only available in white. *=AFAIK, the 128GB models are exclusive to the Chinese market, all other lines should be starting with 12/256 as the base model.
This is based on what I found looking around on AliExpress at the time of posting, prices may vary.

I think i will either have to find a way to get Google services running properly with FCM notifications (currently have google services installed but can not register for push notifications), or sell the device as its currently useless with no proper google services or global firmware.
I purchased from Giztop, check out their website. i always buy new devices from them, it takes ages for retailers here in New Zealand to get these sorts of exotic phones in if they ever do.

Hi, I bought rog 6 from Alibaba. The Tencent 256gb model. I asked the seller to flash global ROM. He did it for me. The phone arrived today, works perfectly. Only thing is, I'm getting that "hardware stub" notification which says "the installed firmware does not match the device, please note you may not receive OTA updates"
Any idea how to remove that annoying message?
I purchased a ROG 5 last year from wondamobile. They too flashed global ROM for me and somehow the Rog 5 didn't have that annoying hardware stub message.
Anyway, my rog 6 works perfectly with ww global ROM, except that annoying notification
The method is out. Update your #1 post to a tutorial?

I sent the phone back. But there's no solution as of yet. You can uninstall hardware stub services to remove the notification but then you won't be able to change your refresh rate. Im sticking with my rog 5 , it's got better speakers & battery life is the same. Also, speakers have been downgraded on the rog 6. I think asus didn't do a good job with rog 6
