Mmmm I just dont trust in this... Thinking about it, if I'll sell a phone thats not even announced yet, I put an unboxing video of the actual phone, not the 920I (thats the unboxing showed on the page).
That is a legit site. Ordered a couple phones from them.

Hi Guys,
Before someone says "google it" I have ! there is so much info in this field its confusing.
I bought 910F from ebay but when it arrived it was a 910T. Im trying to get a refund but if i cant can i
1. install all the firmware to make it a 910F(Vodafone firmware would be ideal)
2. Debrand it from Tmobile?
Any help would be appreciated
The 910F has a different processors
1
Looking at the specs on XDA they both have Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processors ?
There is a 910F custom ROM in the developer section. I believe it is a generic unlocked firmware. Lollipop build.

No it doesn't. The N910F uses a Snapdragon 805/Adreno 420 just like the N910T. The only difference is the frequencies supported by the modem.

You are correct sir:good::good:
Im not sure if anyone has the answer to this...
I happened to be in Taiwan at the weekend when the Note 5 launched.
I visited an official concession at a department store where I had the opportunity to ask the salesman a few questions. He assured me that the model (N9208), would be the same one that would be launching in the Philippines (where I live). I took his word for it and purchased the phone. I had the opportunity to visit a Samsung store today to find that the software (keyboard etc) is very different on the Philippines version (still an N9208)!
I love the phone but English (UK) is my first language and the Philippine version supports it much better than the Taiwanese version. The handwriting pad is the most noticeable difference as it is set up for inputting characters as opposed to writing sentences...
I was hoping to change this; N9208ZTU1AOH3_N9208ZZT1AOH3_BRI
to this; N9208XXU1AOGE_N9208OLB1AOGF_XTC
I was hoping to keep it as official as possible.
Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Why do people do this? Buy a phone that's not for a region they live in cause they "can't wait" or some other excuse? If I want a phone for the US, I'm not going to go to the UK to get it......

The phone isn't getting a UK launch so I got one whilst on a trip. The price was good too

Ok, nvm LOL. Didn't think of it that way, forgot there is no UK launch for Note 5.
No custom ROMs (or even root) yet, I believe -- but I'm a Note 4 user and I sometimes use Google's own handwriting keyboard in place of Sammy's solution. It installs as an alternate keyboard.
I find that It works best when paired with Google's own keyboard. Both should be available to download on your device since Google now releases their apps on a stand-alone basis (i.e. it won't replace your stock Sammy keyboard).
Hope that helps while you wait for a custom ROM.

Thank you. I have been using Stylus Beta from the Play store in the meantime. The google one was great but I have found writing sentences much more fluid with the stylus app. I recommend checking it out!
Cheers for the input!

just flash it with odin...they are compatable.......all the firmware for n9208 will flash no problem
youve given me an idea to do it now ,,,,i have same problem
just curious why you picked xtc firmware
Hi, the firmware I picked is from the Philippines. English is widely spoken, especially in business etc so it's the best bet for full English support of the N9208 I believe. I think the firmware I picked is the carrier free version although I need to double check.
I'm very tempted to use Odin but my only holdup is Knox. Samsung pay is launching imminently and I would hate to miss out if my phone becomes unofficial!
Any idea if it would be effected?

Yes, you need to enable 'OEM unlock' before you can flash with Odin. Same happened on my N920C when i tried to flash a custom kernel: always failed until I changed the OEM unlock.

Don't think this have anything to do with it as i remember seeing that on my Galaxy S6 as well.
Could you try to flash another compatible software? I had the same problem once with my S6 which was LUX, tried to flash a firmware from the Netherlands on it and would fail as well, but then tried a French one and it flash without problems.
Or you might want to go look if there's a solution in the Galaxy S6 (and Edge) forums. I wasn't the only one with that problem but since I could flash the French firmware i've never bothered to further look into it.

Did you have any joy with Odin in the end? There were more firmwares to try on Sammobile if that particular one is a dud. I'm tempted to have a go now but I'm far from an expert
No...... I tried different ones..... Odin still getting stuck..... I tried other threads to see fix problem... Still waiting for reply...

Which firmwares have you tried flashing on your N9208 ? I was gonna try to flash the N920T firmware on my N9208. I have a t-mobile sim in my N9208 and I want wifi calling and the new t-mobile video calling feature.
I only tried n9208 firmwares on sammobile... Malaysia... Philippine... and some unknown ones
never thought trying others...
could others be used safely?
I just wanted to change keyboard because chinese characters keep coming up!

the one that fails is the modem I dont know why ,maybe if someone could provide as with a flashable modem zip (of n920c for example) would be great.
To change just the system
I unziped the firmware of the n9208 then I replaced the cache.img and system.img with the ones of a n920c rom.
then build up the tar file and flashed with odin. Rooted and flashed TPWR after.
everything works except nfc probable from the baseband that is different.
Thats why I am asking of a flashable modem..
Tried Dr.Ketans rom also but I lost signal.

i just noticed the tawain rom doesnt have hidden.img where as the other n9208 have this file>>>
anyone any ideas why this be..or what its for?
this might explain failure of other roms to flash??
I bought a new galaxy note 5, on the box (menu, settings, about) it shows N920F witch dosn't exist in sammobile.
When I tried to root with this file "CF-Auto-Root-trlte-trltexx-smn910f", in the download mode it shows N920T witch is a T-mobile variant of galaxy note 5 look here
I don't know what recovery or root to use: N920F or N920T ?
Is my phone converted? Because I saw some samsung S3 (I9300) et S4 (I9500) that were converted form sprint S3 (I727, I747, ..)
Thank you

Hi,
The first link sorry but it's an error (on some "not very serious websites" they tag the N920C as a "N920F" as it is compatible in Europe), the second link reports just a N920F saw at the FCC, nothing new since and the third link:
N920i...
And on Sammobile about N920F:
Like already said there is no N920F (yet).
By editing the build.prop file (ro.product.model) I can show you a N920F in settings / about or whatever you want.

How about the note 9 through tmobile?
Better size, micro sd card slot and headphone jack. Don't know what Samsung was thinking.
Anyone know the model of note 9 tmobile sells and if it's bootloader is unlocked?
How about the note 9 fron tmoble?
Earphone jack, Micro SD card slot, great size. Thru say unlocked bootloader.
