[Q] Is "standard" Note 8 digitizer compatible with the i467 (AT&T) Note 8?
Hi All,
I spent some time searching but didn't come up with anything definitive. I've heard from one source that a standard Galaxy Note 8 digitizer (e.g., GT-N5110) *is not* compatible with the AT&T branded Note 8 (SGH-I467). Price online for replacements are significantly higher for what are called I467 digitizers than a regular Note 8 digitizer, so wanted to get a second opinion before purchasing.
Thanks!
I know this is an old thread. Since it took me some efforts to figure this out, I am sharing with the public.
In terms of the digitizer, GT-5110 *IS* compatible with SGH-I467. This is because neither have an earpiece or proximity sensor. GT-5100 has these 2 hardware. Thus, if you put a GT-5100 digitizer on SGH-I467, you would have extra holes. Many sellers on eBay would tell you both GT-5110 and SGH-I467 share the same digitizer because both are Wi-Fi only version. This is WRONG. While GT-5110 is Wi-Fi only, SGH-I467 is LTE. However, the radio capability is IRRELEVANT. What makes them compatible is the lack of these extra holes. By grouping GT-5110 with SGH-I467 these sellers do sell you the right part even though they have the wrong knowledge. haha
The Motherboards go for like 15€ on Ebay
My Phone doesn't start up anymore, any I really want to remove Branding, can I just pop in a new european motherboard in or does branding affect some other hardware aswell?
There are 2 chips exynos and snapdragon so u have to choose the right motherboard or else cámaras won't work as they are made for specific mobo. If u in us swap att with tmobile is the same. If u have euro/exynos swap with euro mobo
hello guys,i just wanna ask about the different A50 NFC vs Non NFC,i already have A50 non NFC version and i thinking about to costume or mod my A50 to become a NFC version,is that possible or not? NFC is from the hardware or a software?
thx all
Nfc is a hardware chip so its not possible to make A50 nfc enabled handset
Is that a known fact? Has anybody checked if the nfc hardware is not present in non nfc enabled A50s? Some companies dont enable features in their phones for different licensing issues, but the hardware is still present.
Good Luck With That Move...
It's A Moot Point...
Either Samsung in your Region supports Samsung Pay MST / NFC or they do not.
You can try to flash a different CSC... but I would flash the "Un-Teathered" Firmware version 1st..... then try an Odin Flash of a specific Region's Firmware.
Good Luck With That.. :angel:
If someone figures out how to activate NFC on the non-NFC A50, I would be very grateful and interested.
I bought the A50 in the UAE and never imagined it wouldn't have NFC in the UAE version especially since a lot of websites report the A50 has NFC.
All my phones since 2012 have NFC and I could not have imagined Samsung would not have NFC on a phone like the A50 in all markets.
I guess the first question is whether the non-NFC A50 has the NFC hardware / antenna installed? If it does, then maybe a ROM / region / software solution exists ...
I flashed the Indian CSC rom to see if activates the NFC function in my UAE (non-NFC) A50. It does not.
I suspect the phone does not have the hardware but I cannot confirm this. If anyone has any further ideas for getting NFC working, please share. Thanks.

I think that 505F has diferent hardware than 505FN because 505F is manufatured in India and 505FN is manufactured in S. Korea. So, Im pretty sure that 505F hasnt included Nfc chip on motherboard.
Tearing apart
I teared apart my A505G, and it dosen't have the antenna but there are 2 non soldered contacts. I suspect those are from the NFC, so maybe if I can get the NFC antenna from the European version, it may work. If someone know a repair shop that sells that, please notify me.

If u want to knw where the NFC chipset is then watch this teardown video frm Jerry rig.. might give u an idea. https://youtu.be/J5AFoS5KXrc
Hello guys i have a question about the s20 ultra us version!
Does it support esim or not?
I'm going to have to say no.
I have the USA unlocked version and it has a single IMEI printed on the box.
All of the models that support more than 1 number will have two (physical) IMEIs. The (Exynos) "Duos" models are like this. My Note 9 and S9+ have this feature. It's two physical sims though.
My iPhone 11 Pro Max and XS/XS Max both are capable of multiple lines, one physical (SIM) and an e-sim. I love this feature and (Samsung) really needs to get on the ball with it. I'm certain there's political red tape involved as the international versions have had this capability for numerous generations so it can't be all Samsung's fault. Maybe Tim Cook & Co. has the magic scissors that cut the red tape to jump place in line.
I can only imagine what the 5G enabled (Apple) flagships are going to cost when they finally come out.
Hello!
I want to buy a dual-SIM Snapdragon S22 and use it in the UK. To that regard, I have a few questions:
1. Is it a good idea? Any NOTICABLE advantages of Snapdragon vs Exynos. (ie. should I just stick to Exynos versions they sell in the UK?)
2. Will the warranty be valid in the UK if the phone is from the US, for example?
3. Which exact version should I buy? I want it to be SIM+eSIM and 5G working in the UK
4. Where do you suggest I buy it with fast international shipping?
Thank you!
Hello to you too.
1. It's subjective. People equally bash on both variants. If you order from US, you risk getting a carrier-"touched" variant whose bootloader (from what I understood) can't be unlocked. Other global SD variants should be fine.
2. The warranty is valid in the country where you bought it. It might be a different story for EU purchases due to international EU member agreements/laws BUT the general rule is that a warranty is valid in the country where the device was purchased.
HOWEVER, if you somehow manage to find a seller of SD units that offers warranty for EU residents, it should be fine. But you have to make sure that it's truly such a deal.
3. If you buy a variant not meant for your region, expect the possibility that 5G might not work. To avoid that, check which frequencies your mobile service provider is on and then check the variant you're considering and its supported frequencies.
4. No clue
Which Snapdragon version has Nano SIM + eSIM ?
