I have ordered UK version Note from Handtec but they by mistake send me EU version . Just before send it back wondering if is any hardware difference between them . Sticker under battery says Made by Samsung , battery - Made in Japan/Finished in Korea. My old SGS2 sticker says Made in Korea by Samsung , battery Made in Korea/ Finished in China. Can someone with UK version check for me where battery and handset are made ? please.

Friends who have bought an Official Diamond from HTC outlets, please let me know which ROM version is being sold, as worry is the UK stock was supposedly witheld for a ROM update.. Are we getting updated ROM or not??
Also mention the RAM and ROM reads from Indian versions..
look at the diamond rom section here. There are 1.34 and 1.35 rom updates posted. The latest rom anyone has seems to be 1.37 - i expect it will be posted soon.
Thanks someone1234, but i raised the question because the Indian Version is going to be different - Non 3G version, hence the ROM versions may be different...
Hey does it mean no one's as yet bought a diamond in India???
Is official sale in India started or not???
safe to say that...
ppl that claim they have bought have yet to respond and claim from where and source...
so probably no one has it yet
Diamond In India ! Yipee !
I got the diamond yesterday in India for 35k that is about 900USD. It is not official, does not come with a warranty. Seems like a HK version piece to me. The ROM version is 1.35 WWE, Date 05/28/08 - Since I got it I have run advanced config on it and tweaked it by increasing cache size. It is noticably faster now.

from where? and what city are you in ?
The Indian Diamond is supposed to launch on the 27th of June afaik.
Its different from the EU versions, uses the MSM7206A processor with no 3G radio
HTC India
the processor on my instrument is Qualcomm 7201A and I have upgraded to ROM version 1.37 WWE. This device also has 3G, I am guessing the official indian version might not. I am located in Delhi and bought it from a dealer here.
Thats not the offical version then.
id rather have the one with 3g than without
I bought my 3G Diamond here in Delhi for 35 Grand its HK version i think and paying 25000/- for non 3g one ...i think 35000 is a good deal.
same here soulpilot, good to have 3G should be getting launched in India in the next9-12 months anyway
Guys, any other difference (other than 3G) between the processors MSM7201A (Worldwide) & MSM7206A (Indian) ??
Not as far as I know. Only difference in the Radio implementation.
One major negative in buying the 3G in India is most HTC service centers will refuse to even touch your phone if theres any problem with it due to the incompatible processors. Some might oblige but most wont. Taken my singapore HTC to the service center the other day for a panel switch and was talking to the service guys about it. He said most of the service centers wont touch any of the 3G diamonds.
i hope the cooked roms work equally well for the indian version as well.

Hi guys,
Recently, I purchased an Unlocked Galaxy Note N7000 at J&R NYC. As there is no unlocked U.S. Model, the O.S. that came was Chinese or Korean. I checked the label behind the battery and I concluded the model was from some Asian country. Ok, after some time the screen along with the digitizer broke and I had to purchase a new one (as Samsung Brazil don't fix models from other countries not even paying for the repair).
I purchased one officially from Brazil that is also a Galaxy Note N7000.
I feel it strange though. I seems slower, the screen sometimes lags when scrolling and I don't remember this lag from my previous one.
The question is, can they have different hardware ? Both are N7000, one from China/Korean and the other from Brazil.
Thank you and best regards,
Amid
I can't say for certain, but I know there are different versions of the firmware for each region which could account for the differences you are observing, at least in part.
If they're both N7000 model than they have the same hardware ( unless one of them is a fake, which i'm sure it is not ). Any differences might be caused by firmware though. You'd have to flash the same stock or custom rom on both of them and then check.
Thank you guys. So, this also implies that the digitizer is the same for both so if I can purchase one digitizer from Samsung Brazil it will work in the other one, correct ?

Yes, you are correct
Hi guys
Since the Note 5 won't be in Europe anytime soon I'm looking at buying a US version to use in the UK (as I did with my Note 4).
US phones with a bad IMEI are much cheaper than those with a good IMEI though, and I was wondering if these would work in the UK (Carrier Bands allowing).
Thanks
I am trying to figure out whats the difference between them , I understand one is made for china and one is for taiwan. But I wanted to know which is better, which has more bands that it supports, which would get updates faster and which could possibly run custom roms.
Thank You

I don't have any of the above models but you can take a look here if you want to see the differences : http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=8683&id2=8796
n9200 is sold in mainland china, hongkong and macao, it has two software versions, one for mainland china, one for hongkong/macao.
the one for mainland china has google framework removed, with some more chinese native apps added.
the one for hongkong has google framwork and google apps, and is good for international usage.
the two software versions share the same hardware, and can be flashed on the same phone without losing warranty.
n9208 is the southeast asia version, it's sold in taiwan, malaysia, etc.
n9200 has a little more bands than n9208, where all the bands in n9208 is included in n9200.
I would recommend you to buy the n9200 if you are choosing between the two, and if you got the mainland china version, you can flash the hongkong firmware.
btw, I got a n9200 for 4000RMB on taobao just a month ago, good and cheap.
edit: if you buy a n9200 hongkong version, you get warranty in hongkong, macao and mainland china,
if you buy a n9200 mainland chinese version, you only get warranty in mainland china.
n9208 would give you warranty in the country you brought
none have international warranty.
I got N9200 (HK version) in Japan and it's working great. :good:
Hi,
I have a UK SIM supplied by Three and I want to upgrade to the Note 5 however not sure which version works the best is it the N920i or the N920C for proper 4G support?
Thanks in advance.
T
I have N920C and have full 4G support on Three UK in Manchester I found when looking for one that the C version was slightly cheaper than the i - I guess folk feeling more certain about that one for international use. I also wanted the Pink Gold version
Have the CD version also in three no issues at all
N920C/CD, are the recommend models for the UK. Though if N920I is available then that will work as well. Though I would still recommend N920C.
