There isn't a perfect fix for the Captivate GPS, it's a hardware problem.
Most custom ROMs have the ''best fix'' that can be done to it.

Well, in China we have asia, europe and even T-mobile HD7. Most of the HTC phones went here by smuggling.

The problem is that the bootloader on the HD7 is kinda region locked, so you can flash Asia roms only on Asia Pacific phone. For example i had an HK phone in chinese and i flashed it with an Asia english rom.
Did your phone come with 8GB or 16GB memory? Asia phones are usually 16GB models.
Anyway i assume you speak chinese, so here you go, they explain how to find the region of your HD7: http://bbs.xda.cn/thread-5877352-1-1.html&usg=ALkJrhgEr_1fPVcjpeMzZdfovPKS-tDHVA

The HD7 doesn't have Chinese support yet.
we might have to wait until the end of the year.

[Q] Hong Kong Rom?

I've searched the INCS forums and can't seem to find any stock rom for the Hong Kong version of this phone.
There was one which I managed to download, but when flashed it would keep switching off and on at the green HTC screen, so it doesn't seem to work properly.
So does anyone have any working Hong Kong stock rom or is that area too limited to small to get one since it only gives Traditional/Simplified Chinese and English as language options...

Thanks for the link but it goes to a different rom, the current one for HK bought phones are 2.12.708.4 with radio being 20.2805.30.085au and the link you gave was for 2.12.707.5 which I think is for southern asia phones (i.e. thailand, singapore, malaysia.
Thanks for the links anyways but unfortunately both download sites are "unavailable in my area" (Hong Kong).

S2 T810 9.7' Wifi Stock rom

Hi friends
I have been on stock rom for a while and contacted Samsung they have updates for LTE ver to NOugat but no for Wifi ver they don't care and no more updates. Thats why I hate samsung after service and same issue for my TV as well. Regret buying it.
Anyway since I am now on stock rom Android 6.0 I would like to flash it my self.
Do I need to unlock the bootloader or come with unlocked?
Which rom do you recommend is stable and receive OTA regularly?
Million thanks
SM-T810 is wifi model, bootloader is not locked as LTE version
You can download and flash by yourselft. ( Cellular South is US )

Hi thank you for reply
Will Cellular south make any difference in any where or lack of anything, if my tab is from Hong Kong?

Region is not important as all Samsung S2 tablets are the same hardware, only firmware and software are customized for certain region.
Right now, there are many firmwares for Android 7 in different countries.
Go to sammobile then select the region closed to your country like Singapore where many people speaks Chinese.
Today, I flashed a Hong Kong firmware to my SM-P580 ( US version ) to bypass FRP. I don't know Chinese but there is no problem to switch to English
at the first screen of settings.
After that, I flashed Germany firmware, Android 7, to a now Hong Kong tablet to get Nougat.
I don't have any problem to flash firmware from different region to my US tablet because I have a choice to select English as my language.
I went from US to Hong Kong, then Germany tablet without any problem.

Hong Kong ROMs always late in updates

Why is it that HK ROMs are always behind in official OTAs? All other countries are on 41.2 and yet HK is still on 39.2!

Changing csc

hi. sorry for this noob question because i am kinda new to samsung. my question is would it be possible to change csc from tgy to xtc? my note 9 is a snapdragon variant from hongkong. and i am currently in the philippines. and if this is possible will there be any problems like ota update and future updates of the phone? thank you and hoping anyone can enlighten me with this matter.
Why would you want to do this? As you can still receive OTA updates for your device, no matter where you are in the world. I am currently using the Korean Note 8 N950N in Hong Kong and I am still receiving OTA updates from Korea.
hi @iceepyon. thank you for your reply. my problem is if i am using samsung members app the support team answering me is from samsung hong kong and not from samsung philippines which is where i am. if i need repairs and stuff i wont be able to go to hong kong as i am here in the philippines. samsung benefits is not working as well. and some of samsung app like the galaxy app is showing hong kong currency not in peso. now my question is if i change my csc to philippines will i be able to use features that is for the local unit on my hong kong unit?

You won't be able to get support from Samsung Philippines anyway as they will be able to find out that you have a Hong Kong device when they check the IMEI number of your device.
oh ok. well i guess i am stuck with it. thanks @iceepyon.

To get WiFi calling and VoLTE
Isn't the new OS's changing CSC when putting a different region/country SIM on the next reboot, when you click YES on first boot(clean boot with the new SIM) to reset and change the CSC of the phone ?! It is one time only use after pressing NO or YES it will not show it again before wiping the phone again. My phone a DBT was set to XEO after a week on service center in Poland, even flashing it multiple times it wouldn't change from it, till I put my Germany SIM and press YES. Hope it helped a bit
It will change the last of them not all CSC
My was
DBT/DBT/XEO
and normal is
DBT/DBT/DBT
I got Canadian N960W Note 9 (Snapdragon) and first time I put Croatian SIM card CSC hasn't changed.
PDA: N960WVLU1ARJA
Active CSC: BMC (Bell Mobility Canada)
I'm still looking if there is a way to inject local CSC (SEE or DHR) into this firmware in order to get volte/vowifi. I don't really care about updates/OTA.

You need to check that your Cell Provider offers WiFi Calling and VolTE capabilities.
