Hi all,
New here
I'm in China for work and going back to Canada in a few weeks. I'm looking to buy the Note 10+ 5G at a Samsung store here in Shanghai as it has 5G and actually cheaper than buying it at a Samsung store in Montreal.
Do you know if any issues for the 5G connection after I switch the firmware? 5G is not available yet in Canada but I think you folks from the US could advise?
Thanks
YC

So, in August 16th, I got a surprise call from Samsung Headquarter Store in Korea that Galaxy Note 7 that I have pre ordered was available earlier than 19th.. and it was Blue Coral ! yay! ...
Then I brought it to the United States... and I only get 3G.....
Is it normal that foreign phones brought to the U.S only works with 3g network...
Is there anyway that I can use LTE network...
my current carrier is AT&T and plan is Gophone LTE 60...
the model is SM-N930S made for SK telecom in South Korea and powered by Exynos chip.
Thank you !
P.S: When you guys visit South Korea, you guys should visit Samsung D'light headquarter store in Gangnam Station exit 8 !! all samsung peripherals are cheaper there...

Yes this happens sometimes depending on the device and carrier.
Easy enough to avoid however, we all know what bands AT&T uses (and if not easy to find out) so checking if the particular device in question has those bands (again easy enough to find out) before buying is of course the wise move.
On some devices in the past it has been possible to enable other bands but the note 7 is so new I doubt anyone has tried yet.

How much cheaper? I'm down in Daegu. I was in Seoul a few weeks ago.

Hello all, I was planning on getting the Note 10 plus international to use on ATT in the US. The reason being is because the Exynos has support for rooting and custom roms. My question is if i were to purchase the international version, what would be the difference between the 5G and regular 4G? Would the 5G work in the US? Regular bands seems identical on both devices, but would the 5g also work once they are available?
Thank you in advance
I currently have the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 SM-N950F/DS Dual SIM. It been working great for the past couple of years.

This is up to you if you want too future proof the device with getting 5h or not so? I recall 5g will be rolling out slowly in the US.
Thats the idea, but will it actually work? On att in the US if I purchase the international 5g model?
Ps. Is the snapdragon versions still an issue to install custom roms?
I don't know if it's important for you, but the 5g model is single sim only. Dual sim is only available on the 4g version.
Had the dual sim for my note 8 because of availability, but I do not have a need for the dual sim. Just was curious as to the band compatibility of 5g because i cant find anywhere where it states that the european 5g is the same as us 5g
Hi folks,
I am not able to get 5G on my Samsung S22 Ultra here in India, which was imported from UK, so has the Exynos 2200 chipset. Although it supports all the 5G network bands required here, for some reason it does not switch to 5G.
Could you guys help me out. Is there any way to unlock the device or something.
Thanks
Me too
