I have recently purchase the Galaxy Note N7000 in the UK, but unfortunately the handset did not come in chinese display, what can I do to make my device to be able to display and type in chinese? Is it possible to flashing the ROM with the Hong Kong stock ROM ? Or any other alternative ways to do it ?
My device version
PDA: N7000XXKKA
PHONE:N7000XXKK5
CSC:N7000XEUKK3
if u want chinese in your menus then u need to flash a rom with chinese support.
However if you jusut want to write chinese you can just install a keyboard (ie. touchpal) from the market and you should be able to after downloading the chinese plugins.
hope this helped
Do u mean I can flash the ROM with the Hong Kong Official ROMS then I will be able to make all the menu and interfaces into chinese?
So I can flash the UK Rom to hk official Rom with no problem ?( as long as i follow the steps ?)
Is it I should use odin to do it?
Thanks so much for advice
you can also transport the chinese input apk and library files to any custom rom. just copy these files over from any stock Hong Kong
/system/app/diopenchineseIME.apk
/system/lib/libdhwrcn.so
/system/lib/libdwpcn.so
/system/lib/libhangulcore.so
/system/lib/libkeyboardcn.so
I think flashing the ROM witb PC Odin is much faster. If you want simplified Chinese flash the PRC ROM.
Of you like Traditional Chinese flash the HK ROM.
Let us confuse the carriers and Samsung!

The simplest thing I recommend the Go keyboard as I'm using the Go launcher. I don't speak or read Chinese, but wife kids and friends all are OK with Go...including using fingers to draw characters onsceen. I don't want to futz with APK's every time I do a new ROM...too invasive from my POV.
I'm not sure flashing any HK/Chinese rom would be wise as the official Chinese roms will be built for the Chinese version of the Note, the i9228, not the European/International i7000 Note that you own.
I've read about people soft bricking their i9228's by flashing an i7000 rom so I guess the other way round would do the same.
I think hocgwai's solution would be the safest.
flash with the chinese rom
Go ahead and flash it baby!!
If whatever you try it doesn't work.
flash back original rom if it doesn't work.
if it still doesn't work, send it back to Samsung dealer for servicing!!
no big deal! samsung servicing is not as crappy as HTC, i hope!
just wondering did you get it working?
i also want to install Chinese on the galaxy note...
also anyone got the files or rom that i need to make this work?
thanks
Singapore and Malaysia firmware support Chinese display and input on the Samsung Galaxy Note.

Hai, bro if you could explain more detail how to put these file inside custom rom such as Alliance Rom Galaxy Note 1. If you have 'Malay/Indonesia' language would better for me to solve my problem. I am hesitance to know more about this step. Thanks in advance.

hi bro, this is only an advise or suggestion.. or educated guess..
since the M100S is found in ASIA.. i guess, you can download the ASIA firmware from the website below and use the latest firmware available.
http://samsung-firmware.webs.com/WEBPROTECT-samsungi9000.htm
**you must be registered to be able to download the firmwares available on the site.
Do take note that your phone does have that antenna feature and korean custom content.. if you do update your firmware to the EU/EURO version.. you might lose the application to be able to use it unless there is a special menu under Settings to configure and use it.

Isn't Korean phone version slightly different having a TV tuner built in?
Better check if you can easily flash a firmware.
go: http://matpclub.com/board/index.html?id=tipn&no=3
download tools.zip (contains ODIN3 and CSC file for M110S)
follow directions found on XDA or Samdroid -

I have an unlocked i9000 running Froyo XXJPO updated from Kies with a UK country code (XEU). My question is, if I change my country code to Hong Kong by hacking the registry, will I be able to download the hong Kong Firmware, and able to change my phone to Chinese display?
If not, are there any ways of using chinese on my phone (preferably through Kies rather than odin).
Thanks in advance for any help.
Its, used registry hack to download a stock hong Kong region rom...worked well so far, so fingers crossed.
Cab you send the the address to download that fireware I just cant find. also i am using galaxy S 4G, will that works for me too?
As I understand it, language is framework based, so if you install a theme that includes chinese (and I know many do) you will have the language regardless of your firmware or CSC.
Hello all,
got a Vodafone branded German samsung, with the following firmware (Froyo):
Code:
PDA: I9000BUJP7
Phone: I9000BUJP5
CSC: I9000GVD2JP5
build info 2010.10
I want to use it at Greece (locale: "el"), with official firmware if possible. Preferably, I'd also like to debrand the phone. Unfortunately I'm a complete novice here, all my experience with firmwares etc come from HTC Magic.
Which would be the "best" official Gingerbread firmware for me and how should I go about installing it? Directly? Flash first to an interim let's say firmware, like a German, but debranded one?
Any specific info will be most appreciated...
First of all:
- it doesn't matter from which firmware do you come from. As long as you flash with ODIN (there are some excellent guides here), this doesn't matter.
- what do you mean with "debrand"? Just a firmware without the provider stuff? Or do you want to unlock your phone, so you can use different sim cards?
- Regarding gingerbread, i suggest, you use the JVB - it works quite well. If you want to apply themes and lots of patches, you can try an deoxed one, otherwise (for normal use and apply of little less) get the "normal" one.
FYI: i flashed from an austrian (original) 2.1 to a english 2.2 to a german 2.2.1 to a norwegian 2.3.3 as most of the time a lot of languages are included and you don't leave the continent (use european firmwares) you should be on the save side.
Kind regards,
ww
Thank you my friend for your prompt reply.

The phone is already unlocked, it's the former I want to do. Specifically, I want to (a) remove all vodafone specific functionality, apps, startup logos etc and (b) have the phone better set for Greek operation. For example, even though the current firmware allows for Greek characters I can not search the phonebook fast by first character in Greek, only with the latin character

Just starting up here, so normal is the name of the game for now
You are referencing "JVB". I can only presume you are referring to I9000XWJVB? Is so:
1) Which CSC should be used. (and what is that CSC and pit etc?)
2) Does this firmware contain support for Greek? Asking this because according to samfirmware, "XW" is for "de,en,es,fr,it,pt,tr(pl)". No el (Greek) support?
Sorry again for the questions, bare with me for a little while longer please

Thank you my friend, for your kind and thorough response,

Best i would start with JVA. I had a look here and it seems, that this is the only rom right now with greek input and swype support.
Also in this thread you will find appropriate guides.
Good luck

Thanks again for the information provided my friend, all my best wishes to you
I can't find where is the XXKB3 in Samfirmware.com. Is is a custom ROM? I am from Hong Kong and I am wondering if the FW XXKB3 support Chinese.
Also, I would like to ask, is that really necessary to flash XXKB3 ROM in order to use some theme that claimed to be XXKB3 ONLY as an requirement. How about directly use the theme as I am now using Asian ROM DDKB2?

xxkb3 is a stock european rom,doesnt support chinese.yes,u can probably give the themes a try
If you install DioPen Chinese IME, it will work. I have this firmware and DioPen Chinese IME installed. It works perfectly.
or you flash I9003ZTKC1_ZZTKC1, taiwanese FW with chinese/english support
Do you guys have recording function for phone conversation in the stock phone application. I heard chinese rom have those features built in to the stock rom.

i know im late but i figured i owe an answer... nope, not available in stock phone app (tried altogether 3 chinese/taiwan/HK roms and none had the feature)
You can still read chinese or 'write' chinese with the European ROM. Only thing missing is the chinese interface (menu, etc) which ain't a big deal tbh.
I have the same problem, I am running a european stock rom, I can read, type chinese, but for sms, other people can not receive chinese character, it all become square or others symbol...

that does NOT stem from your phone but from the receivers phone. if they dont have chinese support, it shows as squares, happens with ALL phones and OS's.
Dear all
i have a question concerning the galaxy note
my galaxy note is now ICS 4.0.3 , for Egypt
my question is
if i download in install using odin the latest firmware from Germany " the new firmware released on September", will i be able to read and write in Arabic or not, i will need the interface language to be in English , i will need two keyboards English and Arabic.
i am waiting for your reply as i really want to update
first thing root and make efs backup, the rest I dont know.
I do know there are alternative keyboards that have arrabic like swiftkey. Your Os can be set to English on German rom, then use that keyboard and your set

Thanks for your fast reply
i contacted samsung service center here in Egypt and they told me if i rooted or flashed i will be out of warranty
so is it possible to update to the new german version using Kies without flashing
for example by changing the CsC code to DBT
by the way i cant find DBT in my CsC list i just find arabic codes
regards
Ofcourse yes.You can keep the interface language to be english and change the keyboard to arabic
well its your choice, efs can be messed up fast in in no time you might find yourself without emei/product code. An efs backup is the only way to secure that.
edit: I think its not possible by just changing csc. Usually for ota kies updatability you need pcode also, I think, which will be the egypt one now.

I think as long as you are on the stock rom,you dont lose your warranty
Even though you lose the warranty,by flashing back the egypt rom,you can gain your warranty
When you go to a service center,they will check the flash counter,you need to reset it and you will be under warranty
