Hey i just read this:

and i was wondering if there was anything like this that could be done for our note. I do understand that we have different radios and processors, but i'm curious. If i knew how to develop and stuff i would do this, but because im an idiot i can't
Thanks for the help

Not sure you can use the same modem for your device too.I have done flashing captivate modem on my international sgs it worked fine.Dint try that in note.But I say please dont try because note is not unbrickable like sgs.Regarding the development its not that easy to do that.And even it would take few months to even few years depending on your understanding capabilities.Though I'm not a full developer I make my own roms for my sgs so I know it to some extend

I had the same curiosity as you because I really wanted the Note for T-Mobile. From my understanding, the reason phone makers that make identical phones internationally and then make the same phones in the united states but choose a different CPU is because the SOC have the frequencies that support the country. I.e. Tegra 3 vs S4 Qualcomm and Exynos vs S3 Snapdragon (the latter for the US)
I would be really interested to know if someone has successfully flashed a radio for the Samsung Galaxy Note I7000 international version for T-MOBILE.
So it would not be possible to flash the i7000 radio to our notes, correct?

HI,
I have purchased a Samsung Galaxy Note 46 LTE (shv-e1605). May I know if the rom of N7000 is compatible with this device? If not is there someone there who knew a rom that can remove the 80 character limit of this Note.
God bless!
Thanks,
Thomie
If it's a LTE Note with SnapDragon processor, then nothing from this forum can be
used for your phone. No Roms, no themes, no mods, nothing.
However, this is where you might have a look:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1496
Thanks,
I will check on this.
That's a Korean note, the link you gave him is not going to help him.
OP, you have to go to the korean note pages and they have roms there but it is all in Korean so I haven't been able to figure out the pluses or minuses of them or even download them. I think you are out of luck honestly. There isn't much benefit to rooting anymore anyway. Only for themes really. 90% of these roms are so flawed and annoying it's not worth the hassle.
Good luck though, i haven't been able to get much hacking support for my Korean note up to this point, maybe you'll have better luck!
Been a sprint user for 10 years and am debating switching to T-mobile mainly because sprint service is horribad where I live. Just wondering how T-Mobile devices are to root and if a lot of developers make custom Roms for them. I have read the bootloaders are typically always unlocked which is awesome so I assume a lot of developers like T-Mobile, just hoping for some feedback from some current or former T-Mobile users. Thanks much for your help and info
You can use any international ROM on T-Mobile Samsung phones. So...Very good.
I'm finally giving up my Sprint SERO plan for T-Mobile after 12 years, so I'm looking forward to better performance and development too.

Sorry for the very noob question. Just curious what is the advantage to an international ROM over normal rom? or does it really only help if you are travelling? Thanks.

No it's just that people make more ROMs and mods for the European device than the US ones. It doesn't do anything for traveling...its the same exact software without the carrier bloat.

Awesome thanks Seriously thinking about switching to t-mobile now.
Hello guys,
As I couldn't find any topic about this I decided to create one.
Will note 4 exynos version ever get 64 bit enable.
I don't think it will get officially from Samsung. But is it really possible to port from S6?
Is there any dev working on this?
Cheers!
Dont expect it bro, it wont be enabled by Samsung because.. its gonna be a Note 5 feature.
well, I guess porting a future rom like Note 5 or GS6 and a 64bit kernel will do the job, we have amazing devs here, this is all im dreaming off...my 2 cents
I would love to see this happening.
I would like to see somebody porting the S6 Kernel to Note 4, but there are people saying that there are way too much difference from our 5344 to the 7420.
Another way to go would be porting from Tab S 10.5 which also has the 5433, If Samsung ever launch a 64 bit Kernel for that device.
Will this help

Best bet is to get a Galaxy S6 Edge if you want a good phone with 64bit.
I thought we pretty much got over this topic in the Snapdragon vs. Exynos thread, I said many times don't expect Samsung to implement 64bit in the Note 4 Exynos.

No doubts Samsung will never implement 64bit in Note 4 officially.
The question that remains is. Is it possible for some dev to do it?
x64 wouldn't even make much of a difference, it's more marketing than actual relevant improvement... But whatever, still an improvement.
The SoC is theoretically capable, so, even if it is unlikely to get it from a S6 port, it isn't impossible.
Samsung porting the device to x64? No. They'll sell the Note 5 as a x64 device.

HI Archiimonde,
This tread is not to know why I want it enable and the benefits or non benefits of having it.
This tread is to know if it is doable and if there is anyone working on it.

Of course it is possible for a dev to do it, but it takes a lot of time and going by the lack of kernel devs developing kernel's for the 910C I'd argue that no one is willing to take on such a project, especially considering it won't bring any major performance improvements. If say there was a nice reward someone might want to spend the time, but as it stands right now, this section is severely lacking in devs.

well, I will be the first one to donate, maybe in the future we can open a donation thread, I know im not alone on this one, a lot of people wants to see what this phone is capable of, also I guess porting a Note 5 rom will be less trouble than a Gs6, only time will tell, but I have my hopes :fingers-crossed:
hhhmmmm i really like to have this 64bit active on my N910C too but getting CM official is more exciting to have
I strongly feel that people have no clue what the benefit of 64 bit enabled note 4 would be, but at least it gives a reason to be unsatisfied.

I'm gonna take a look at this when I'm back home later tonight. But I honestly doubt the success of it.. The Exy is already not documented that well and I have only found some parts hinting to 64bit support when developing for it. But I'll give it a try [emoji16]

hi fellow XDA peeps,
Please don't bash me... i did some research but still need a bit of advice....
I am interested in purchasing a Note 5, can someone tell me which version/model of the Note 5 is the best for modding and would most likely be the one with lots of custom roms?
I know it might be a bit early to say this but, I'm hoping that you guys can still give me some advice. I did some research and saw that there is a custom rom or two out right now, especially here on XDA but, i noticed this is specifically for the N920 I/C/G. : http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/n920i-dr-ketan-rom-l1-t3195076
Also, I read that the T-Mobile version comes with an unlocked bootloader. Does the other models come with an unlocked bootloader as well?
I would greatly appreciate your help guys and any other advice concerning Note 5 versions/models, modding, custom roms, unlocked/unlocking bootloaders is most welcomed.
sooooooooo......
1) best version/model for modding and most likely to have most custom roms?
2) which version/model comes with unlocked bootloader/s?
Many thanks in advance,
Ronald

"Best for modding" is irrelevant if you can't use the phone for voice/data. So, why not start with telling us where you're physically located and what carrier you have. That may significantly limit your choices.

thx buddy.
I'm located in the Caribbean, we have blazing 4G networks and excellent voice/data services. My present carrier is Digicel but we also have Bmobile (TSTT) here.
I ask "best for modding" because I'm big on installing custom Roms and having full access to the device and what it could do. I could be wrong, but from my understanding devices with unlocked bootloaders are the preferred choices for developers to work on, mod, etc.
thx,
Ronald
Here's the best I can offer you:
Head to this website: http://www.willmyphonework.net/
The following devices have more support on XDA than the others: n920t (tmobile - but they come sim-locked), n920i, n920c. Find the device that works best with your carrier. Eliminate the tmobile choice if needed due to it being sim-locked.

thanks a million buddy...after all the research i did, i too came up with exactly what you said above........thanks again....cleared up things a lot. Guess i was on the right track, i have an unlocked n920t, n920i and a n920c in my ebay cart. However, i checked and ALL of them resulted in a (X) by the 4G symbol.... ................... All those models will work fine up to 3G network here though not sure if our 4G network is really 4G....lol....long story
if its not too much though, which would you go with?

Quite honestly, I'd do my homework and whatever google searching required to find out which LTE bands are supported by the carrier or carriers I use. Then I'd make sure that whichever model I got supported those LTE bands.
Quite often, a carrier might still be rolling out support for an LTE band and it doesn't show on that site I linked to. For example, AT&T in the US is rolling out LTE bands 5, 29 and 30 in some regions, but that site knows nothing about them.... (I can excuse band 29 because it's used for downlink only, and band 30 because they JUST started rolling that out in very few areas.)

nice nice, thanks for the heads up....this what our networks here runs on:
http://roamtheworldcellphones.com/gsmtrinidadandtobago
http://www.gsmarena.com/network-bands.php3
But, the issue is not really the band/s though, its the version that most likely developers would choose to work on and have lots of custom Roms/developments? whatever model that may be, that is the model i would i like to buy. For now it seems like if i can't obtain an unlocked N920T then the next best variant should be the N920I, then N920C. Correct me if I'm wrong in anyway please..lol

At this instant in time, the 't' seems to have the most attention. The 'i' and 'c' are mixed... I wouldn't be willing to say either gets more attention than the other.

Got it debloated but how can you compare it to custom Rom and kernel?
Why would you state a phone is the worst model ever strictly based on a lack of custom ROMs? The availability of ROMs has nothing to do with the capability the phone model has. If you want custom ROMs, you could always do the work to make them. If you don't have the knowledge, there are plenty of devs that have provided help to many on this forum, and I'm sure that you could get help if you're willing to spend the time and put in the effort.

As oneplus phones are great for custom firmware and I always buy them because of it. In this case 5G model is just a piece of rubbish as there is literally NO support from devs. You say do it on my own? Yeah I would like to have few hours of spare time every day to play with it, but as I do not have that time I have to sell the phone and buy something "normal".

I understand your concern but if you look in the correct place TG you will find it. ??
What do you mean not compatible? Because bootloader locked? Or is the hardware different? I managed to unlock bootloader, but have not yet tried to flash a ROM. Are you saying a regular ROM will not work for the OP7 Pro just because it's the 5G version? (I don't need 5G anyway if that's the only problem with 5G OP7).
