[Q] Thinking of leaving verizon for the ATT gnote but I have some qs...

I want to get the note with ATT after I leave verizon (no point in staying if I can't keep unlimited when I upgrade). I want to know that if I install roms for the I7000 or whatever (international version, right?) will I run into any problems? Is there any differentiation between the att version of the note and the international one? And if so, how can I weed out the development for the att note?
Also curious, if I can install international roms on the ATT version, will I retain my lte?

Different phones. Use the AT&T Note thread for information.

Different hardware entirely. Either buy the ATT note and checkout the ATT note forum, or do what I did and buy the international note (unlocked) and use on AT&T network (in which case this is the correct forum). But you can't mix.

That's exactly what I did. I have the unlocked GT-N7000 (this forum model) on the ATT network. But yeah, totally different phones.

I have been doing a ton of research on the Note, so this is one of the few questions I can answer here. Not all of them...but most. Since I am still new here I am unable to add links.
The Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 (International) has a a dual-core 1.4 GHz Exynos processor. Externally, it has a physical "home" button and two touch-sensitive buttons. It also has a built in radio.
The Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-I717 (US & Canada) has a Qualcomm MSM8660 Snapdragon with a dual-core 1.5 GHz Scorpion CPU and an Adreno 220 GPU. It has four touch-sensitive buttons instead of two. It can do LTE.
Looking at that you might think that the I717 is just better all around. This -apparently - is incorrect. In the bench marked tests I saw with a Galaxy Note with Exynos VS. the Galaxy Note with Snapdragon, the Exynos based one beat Snapdragon performance wise.
Galaxy Note with Exynos
GLBenchmark 2.1 Egypt High: 2827 Frames (25.0 Fps)
GLBenchmark 2.1 Egypt Standard: 3012 Frames (26.7 Fps)
Galaxy Note with Snapdragon
GLBenchmark 2.1 Egypt High : 1014 Frames (9.0 Fps)
GLBenchmark 2.1 Egypt Standard : 2425 Frames (21.5 Fps)
The site I found this from is called "Galaxy Tabs" from a a Feb 6, 2012 post.
Which leaves the question - Why would Samsung use a less hefty chip in the US & Canada version. The reason I have found is that the Exynos processor can't do LTE. Then again - weather all this is good or not depend on preferences and pattern of use.
------------------
So there you have it. I should mention though that (I presume) you did a terrible job searching. Not only did I find a post here from 28th February 2012 Called i717 vs GT N7000, but I also found alot of information from -wait for it- Wikipedia. Just FYI.
On the upside though - most of the stuff I mentioned I did from memory.
YAY research!

The att i717 has lte. If u using internet alot and your area has lte. Its better to use the att gnote. U can always overclock tge i717gnote to make tge clock faster.. After overclock there's no lag issues and it runs super smooth. But if u want more custom roms abd faster offical update. Buy the international gnote. Either way u cant go wrong. I chose attgnote cos tge lte and i overclock my note. It runs super smooth and super fast downloads cos tge lte!!

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910 Factory Unlocked International Model

Goes on Sale on Amazon starting October 3rd for $899.00

This SUCKS, that seller is not allowing purchases from Canada:crying:. Please keep posting links for the International models as they become available. Huge thanks

Amazon:
"SIM Micro-SIM Memory Internal 32 GB, 4 GB RAM Card slot microSD, up to 128 GB"

They also don't specify which model it is. It just says "Item model number: SM-N910." Doesn't say if it's the S or the C.

I can't find "Exynos" anywhere on this page: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SM-N910-Factory-Unlocked-International/dp/B00N2Y5ALK

To be clear the phone is NOT being sold by Amazon, it's being sold by a secondary seller named "DeltaMobiles."
However, their feedback is pretty good... 4.7 stars / 3407 reviews.
http://smile.amazon.com/gp/aag/main...=ATVPDKIKX0DER&orderID=&seller=A2GKOXTPZV7SMA
Their price was also about fifty dollars cheaper last week.

Does anybody know when does Samsung and other providers start to sell this unlocked phone officially, is it on the actual release date or later?

I have attempted to contact them to verify the compatible LTE bands. Can I assume it is not compatible with US band specifically att?

well, seems like the international will have 4 gb of RAM, this is not the first place where I see 4 GB RAM, not sure about the USB v3 maybe a typo. But doesn't hurt to place a pre-order they don't take you credit card info anyways

I wouldn't say that. the second link doesn't even have the right picture.. it also has "Expected announcement date" which makes me think the site was created before the announcement before we REALLY knew the specs..
I'd say its inaccurate and wrong.

Yep that is possibility too. On amazon I saw some store was taking pre orders with similar description 4 GB for the international edition, might be wrong might be true we will find out soon. However, it doesn't hurt to make pre-order in case if its true at least you will have some reservation. Also as I said they don't take you credit card, so you won't have to deal with "wrong charges" and etc.

there is no SM-N910 Model Number, pre-order available in the UK from http://www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-note-4
but when asked what Model Number, they replied :
I'm not sure yet exactly which model number we will have here, although I do know that the model numbers reflect the 'sales region' that the phone is intended for.
Clove sell UK stock so whichever model number(s) are for the UK then this/these will relate to our stock.
pdadb.net currently have 9 of the 22 model numbers listed for spec comparison http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacom...&id5=6767&id6=6406&id7=6722&id8=6754&id9=6798

That also looks like it is the exynos version.
Here is my response from Delta Mobiles.
Hello,
The phone will support 4G/LTE with any "GSM" carrier as long as it supports the frequencies. Here are the frequencies for 4G/LTE:*4G LTE : *800/850/900/1800/2100/2600. Let me know if you have additional questions.
Have a great day!
-Steph

I presume that 'unlocked' means not locked to any carrier. It is NOT bootloader unlocked (ie. not rootable or ROM installable). Correct?

Yeah, it never means bootloader unlocked..

International vs T-Mobile

I am looking to buy another Note 4 and was wondering what the pros and cons of each where. Also will the international work on T-mobile without issue? I tried searching for the answers before I made this post (I may just do a poor job searching) and only found speculation post before the phones were released. I know with my T-Mobile Note 4 it seems it overheats from time to time if I am downloading a torrent and I found an article about Samsung dropping the 810 because of "overheating fears".
Thanks for any advice or information in advance.

910U taiwan is awesome. no issues.

Im on the tmober and am actually overclocked to the max.. zero problems...

Using n910c on tmobile works fine had n910p on sprint that model had overheating problems
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA Free mobile app

Buy the T-Mobile variant if you live in the states and use T-Mobile or any of its affiliate MNVO's.
Buy the T-Mobile variant if you live in the states and want the warranty via T-Mobile / Samsung.
Buy the T-Mobile variant if you live in the states or live abroad and want true GSM bands and or want to root.
Don't Buy the T-Mobile variant if you're concerned with overheating (Common byproduct of Snapdragon SoC's)
Buy the SM-910C instead, and be aware, of its CAT4 LTE Modem, Lack of Warranty (if buying and living in the States), and Exynos Chipset (Some say performs a tad bit better), but lesser ROM Development; still caries most of the bands the T-Mobile Snapdragon variant and is GSM-ready.

Get Tmo, it has an insane amount of dev going on for it.

Excatly! :good:

AT&T Tab S 8.4 - $280 at Best Buy

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8434 16GB WiFi 4G LTE ATT was $379 yesterday.
It's actually cheaper than the refurbished one.

great deal, thanks! but dang, i thought there was supposed to be an LTE model with a Qualcomm processor, but everywhere i look all the lte models are listed as also having the Exynos... even here in the forum info at the top it says the lte models have Qualcomm

I wish it was on sale last week when I got my WiFi model off Craigslist. I would have paid 280 for a brand new one with the Snapdragon, even if I never activated the LTE

[email protected]$#@%@
I just paid almost $400 for this yesterday from BestBuy. WTF.
I think they have a 14 day price adjustment policy though. So.... whew.
EDIT:
Just tried to buy another one but they changed it to "pickup only" and it's not available anywhere in Austin or San Antonio, Texas areas. Bummer.
Hope they still price guarantee it for me.
I'll sell someone a Best Buy 10% off coupon for $4.
It's a code, online only thing.
EDIT #2:
Aww hell, just found out this tablet cannot be rooted or ROM'd at all. The bootloader is locked. $#@$#@$#@@%

I went to best buy to get a 10.5 but they were out at the store I went to. They had them for 399. On the way to another best buy I stopped at Walmart and they were 499. I asked if they price match an got it there for 399. This tab puts my Asus T700 and ipad to shame. I bought an iPad air off flea bay kept that for a week. I can't understand why anyone likes ios

No.
The Sony is brighter, but the Samsung AMOLED has slightly better sunlight readability from (what I've read).
I'd rather have the Samsung but I need LTE and root and ROM capability. Sony was the next best choice in the display size range I want.
---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------
You know what, you guys got me wondering. While all the USA based GSM LTE versions have a locked bootloader, I didn't even stop to consider that an International LTE version may not be locked.
The SM-T705 appears to be rootable and CM12 is available. I may have to research it since the Sony has not yet shipped to me.
EDIT: Sounds like the T705 only has 3G, not LTE (on T-Mobile bands).

I wouldn't buy one since you can't root it. But Best Buy still has the LTE for $279 on their eBay site:

It's the same as buying from the brick'n'mortar store I think?

If i buy note 5 dual sim. Will i have software updats in the future??

'm thinking to buy the note 5 dual sime sm n9208. From ebay cause i do not found the normal 64gb white version. Now my main question is if it will have updats in the future as the normal note 5 will get? Or ill have to always wait? In the other hand will it be able to install an 920 normal updats to it? Will it function as normal note 5or not? Thanks ls for the help!

when i got my Note 5 Duos (white, 64GB), as soon as i connected to the internet and logged into my Google account, there was already an update. i held off though just because i'm waiting for root and don't want to continue with any updates just yet. i'm not sure how the international/unlocked versions are scheduled for updates, but with my Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (both WiFi versions) each got the 5.1.1 update within the same time my Sprint S6 edge got the 5.1.1 update.
can you type what it would look like if it offered Hebrew? i'll try to check tomorrow to see if it's already supported or not.
(if anybody is interested, i'll have a white Note 5 Duos (64GB) for sale within a week. PM.)
(Sent from another Galaxy via Tapatalk)

So i will be able to install a generic note 5 version (with one sim only) or not??

possibly, if you're rooted. but i would imagine the Dual-SIM OS would be the same as the regular international version (single-SIM) with the exception of the Dual-SIM menu.
(Sent from another Galaxy via Tapatalk)

So how is it possible that the dual does not support Hebrew keyboard. ..?

....??

I really want to but it already and dual Sim is the only option right now . Is any less good then the normal note 5? And will I be able to burn another version of Android of the note 5 ?

Any help please..?

Plz Someone Help.Also Anyone with Dual Sim Model can post its About Phone Screenshots>plz?

Can someone check so see if the duel sim varriant has the Sony camera sensor for the rear camera? Thank you!
Regarding software updates, these should come around the same time as the other varriants of the Note 5.

This is a list of the update for the Note 4 Dual Sim variant. Basically right in line with the software releases for the other international models. It is still waiting for 5.1.1 but this only came our for one international variant (910c) so it is likely on the way within the next few weeks.

Hmmm. Not sure what this means for the camera. Perhaps you need to use an app to get the sensor data from an image that you have taken?
