Hi,
Can anyone tel-me what are the diferent Versions for the Note 2?
I have friends in the USA and the UK who can buy me one, but need to now if it works in Portugal.
Thanks for your help
Try Google Search
There are 2 versions of the phone
The 4G LTE one which only works and used in the U.S and they are locked aswell , so you cannot use your sim card in Portugal unless you unlock the phone(pain in the ass..)
There is the international one which works every where in the world (Unlocked) They use these in the UK aswell,
So if your going to get the phone get it from your friend from the UK
Greetings,
This will be my first ever Sony unit and I really don't
know what unit to get! I always get an unlocked version
and put Rogers Sim card in it.
Is there a North American variant available?
If not, is there an international version then?
And what is the difference if any between single and dual sim units?
Thank you for your help.

don't know which to get ?
Well, use the force, Luke !
North American (international minus fingerprint functionality) == no finger print scanner (?), enable via firmware flash [details in forum]
single, dual sim - single has single, dual has dual sim functionality
I recently bought the international version and am using it on Rogers. Works perfectly been using it for a month.
Hi all,
I purchased the Honor 7x foreign version with 4gb of RAM. Unfortunately, it will not work with AT&T. It just says emergency calls only. Are there settings I can change to make it usable? Will rooting it fix things, or am I better off selling it?
Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, it's a hardware issue--the radios. You will need the US version to get a phone with radio bands that will work with AT&T or T Mobile. Hopefully, you can return the phone and get the US version. Good luck
Thanks for the response! I guess I will work on returning it for the US version.
Hi, from Australia,
I have bought UK based honor phones before, (5C not global rom - so some carriers didnt work) but would like to get an Honor View 20 global version , and know the actual model, so I can check the frequencies on frequency checker website before I buy.
I have tried Amazon India, and also tried Hi Honor, and even emailed Huawei in Australia ( long time Huawei user prior to using Honor 5C) so far no luck .
I did find a PCI-L29 for.. $1219 ,but thats a lot more expensive than the Malaysian / Indian prices.
At this level of price purchase, i am hoping to get the model that works internationally, as I found the PCT -L29 has the right bands for Australia, but very hard to buy.
So I thought this forum would be a great place to make my first post, and see what I can did up for how to buy one. Perhaps someone can share a link , if they have bought a global one.. plenty of ebay ones etc, but when you follow the link... not global .
This isnt just for me, others on some Australian tech forums also would love to know.
Thanks!
I'm in New Zealand using Pct_al10 (bought from India) I can confirm 4g and 3g work full signal on both my sims. I use Spark and Vodafone. You could lookup the bands they use and compare to the ones you need.

Hi Flamery, checked on frequency checker and not suitable (PCT-AL10 ) 5 bands missing for Australia - just in 4g) .
all those bands are available in the global rom.
Glad its working ok for you in NZ.
Maybe somebody else has a source of where I can get the PCT - L29 , or the international version, for less than $1219 AUD

Thanks for helping - any ideas as to the outlet , just as a suggestion? I tried searching honor v20 PCT L29 singapore but got nowhere.
Any help appreciated.. sound like a great price. I could only find the aloo version sgd (Chinese version aloo - so incompatible bands)

I got mine from the below link. Its a local online shopping portal. Usually discount coupons are given near weekends or every few weeks. Coupons will be something like $100 off minimum $800 purchase. Which will offset the price from $829 to $729 for the 8gb model. Its local set, so warranty is only for Singapore, n region is Asia, so asia rom. I'm not sure if they do overseas shipping, u can ask them through the portal.

I have bought other phones from red white mobile previously, not sure about mobyshop.
im from germany and bought a PCT-L29 last week for 490€.
Generally most devices sold over here are PCT-L29.
if you want links to sellers send me a pm since i cant post links
I obtained mine (PCT-L29) from Technolec, from eBay. They are an authorized reseller and have been great to work with.

Hello there. I have a big question.
I have the Chinese Variant which is PCT-AL10. Is it ever possible to install РСТ-L29 Global ROM on it by the aforementioned procedure? I have NO idea if the hardware is different or just the ROMs!

I have one problem with one s20 ultra 5g ... after firmware uptade from 10 to 11 ...
I bought the phone from a pawn shop and I had a custom firmware installed
I couldn't install many applications and that's why I wanted an original firmware
at phone status I get custom
now I have official android 11 but no signal
is my network blocked? or? I can enter the pin code ... but it doesn't take a signal ...
MODEL NAME SM-G988B/DS
BEFORE CHANGE SM-G988B only. meybe here is the problem ??
someone said it was a roted phone after seeing the phone in download mode
I don't know what that means and how it can be fixed !
Another thing I noticed ... on the back of my phone is written live demo unit not for sale
only now I saw this .... after 3 months from buying the phone
What carrier sim are you using. Big risk buying from pawn shop, you never know what you are getting. Since demo unit it could have been a stolen phone. So many good re-sale options other than pawn shop.

If this is a Live Demo Unit it does not have any cellular functions. You will not be able to get any signal - sorry.
