Which version of the Note did I get ?

Hi Guys and Gals
Was just looking through all the Roms etc.. (more over the Official ones)
and I am not sure which model of note I got sent
I bought it on contract from Dial-a-phone and it was unlocked out of the box.
It did a few updates the day I bought it.
But I'm curious as to which version I got.
More for when ICS does finally get released and hopefully I'll be one of the first not having to wait for Country / Carrier updates.

}
Which version / country is this for etc...
Is it Europe or Open Europe or some other country that Dial-a-phone got their stock from
by the way what is the difference between Europe and Open Europe ?
I'm not sure which one I should be going by as I have the following -
a baseband that says
N7000XLA4
A Kernal that has N7000XXLA6 in it
and Build number of Gingerbread.XXLA6
I am in the UK by the way
I know when I had my Galaxy S2 I flashed that to open Europe to get rid of the O2 Carrier Garbage
So Don't mind if I have to flash my Note to another one to benefit from a Quicker update to ICS when its released
Though there is no Carrier Bloatware on this at all.
Thanks

Hi there,
I think you are using the Europe Build.
The difference between the Europe and the Open Europe Build is simple:
Open Europe= It's leeked for developers, this Build includes dev tools
Europe = Build for users
That's why I think you are using the Europe Version. I don't think you bought a developers Note with the Open Europe Version. I don't know if this Build is sold at all.

Ok, sounds good then.
Hopefully the Europe version will get an ICS update first being as there's no carrier to wait for.
But then again I have read the UK Unlocked/Sim Free Galaxy S2 is still waiting as apparently Samsung want the carriers to do theirs first and see if any issues come up before they release a Sim Free update as these get used on all networks..
One can only hope this won't be the case with the Note..

europe version
I got the same as you

wrong section for starters.
sprint doesnt use unlock codes.
they push an unlock to your phone.
they are the only carrier that uses a back door method.
how do i know?
i had to fight with sprint for weeks to get them to unlock my phone so i could use it in spain.
sprint is very difficult when it comes to this procedure. and although you may have received a confirmation unlock email from sprint, your phone may not be unlocked.
it is a hassle.

back door method ? can u elaborate ?

you talk to sprint. then they push an update to your phone.
you dont put in a code or anything.
they push the unlock to your phone.

Actually this has a builtin app to unlock the phone search it up on the general section u should see SIM unlock. U might have to dig around the tread for the instuructions.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386703 that's the thread with the video tutorial. U probably should of posted this on the Q&A section

Please help in regards to unlocked at&t htc one

like I am buyting at&t htc one but seller said its unlocked just by codes given by at&t itself (as the seller is stating) and he says nothing else like rooting or bootloader unlocked is not done on it . But I will check if he is true or lieing as he is not telling me if its bootloader unlocked too . So just tell me this that if its (only) bootloader unlocked then I will see s-off instead of s-on ??? or I can still see s-on even if the device is just bootloader unlocked ,,,,,
how to check that its not bootloader unlocked ?! and I will surely get future updates ?! From where it will get the future updates ? like by htc server or still by at&t ?

See attachment below.
If when you boot into your bootloader, power off your phone then press and hold Volume down and the power button, and either "TAMPERED" or "UNLOCKED" are shown, then the seller unlocked to bootloader. However, I don't think that stops your OTA updates from AT&T. Unlocking the bootloader only voids AT&T's warranty of the phone. Make sure Fastboot in the power options is unchecked before trying to boot into your bootloader.

[Q] SIM Unlock requires stock ROM

Hey,
I just bought a SIM unlock code through eBay. I have also done this process successfully in the past with my AT&T HTC One X and it worked flawlessly when I took the device abroad and inserted a foreign SIM; back then, I wasn't messing with custom ROMs so I have no way to conclude if the code seller is correct with his statement.
He wrote to me this:
"All codes are from factory and they don't normally fail. it must be the software on the phone which needs to updated to official latest ROM to enable it accept the code. The phone should ask for SIM NETWORK UNLOCK PIN."
I am now running the latest GPe on my AT&T HTC One; I am also S-OFF. This is a screenshot of my phone info:

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I am unsure what I should do now... Should I backup and flash the stock ROM? If so, where do I find the one that is relevant for me? Will flashing the stock ROM cancel my unlocked bootloader, S-OFF, root?
Thanks a lot!

"All codes are from factory and they don't normally fail. it must be the software on the phone which needs to updated to official latest ROM to enable it accept the code. The phone should ask for SIM NETWORK UNLOCK PIN."
that statement is a load of rubbish, your IMEI number on your phone never changes, and you have to give them that number and device model in order for them to generate your unlock code, correct ?
they are correct however in saying that the device will ask for the sim unlock code, but only when its been inserted with a different operators sim card, if its booting and working with a different operators sim in it, and not asking for the unlock pin, then its already unlocked.
your IMEI and model makes that unlock code specific to your phone and your phone only, doesn't matter what software you have on it.
either he has entered the wrong IMEI number or selected the wrong device when generating the unlock code, or you've given him the wrong number.
ive unlocked mine and had and still have ViperOne on it.

am I capable of Rooting and do I need to unlock my boot loader?

This is my first Moto device and I'm not familiar with how to root these. All I know is its a Moto X Verizon exclusive (pig skin edition), I know the SIM is unlocked because I'm using it on At&t. If someone could help me by shooting me the proper links to a tutorial specific to this model phone I would seriously appreciate it. Thanks.

You cannot root it or unlock its bootloader, unfortunately. In the States only the Pure Edition can be unlocked and rooted. Also, it'll likely be a VERY long time until your model gets rooted if it ever does, and if I was a betting man, I'd go all in on its bootloader never getting unlocked. In other words, learn to love it stock because that's probably how it's going to stay.

US Cellular XT1093 can be unlocked, and does Sprint have it yet? If so, it's unlockable. I prefer to say "All variants except Verizon and ATT are unlockable" rather than "Only Pure Edition can be unlocked in the US". Plus it's less words (by one lol).

You're right, my bad. I keep forgetting that USC has it too. Not sure about Sprint.
