[Q] Chinese rom for AT&T note 3?

I want to install a chinese rom for the AT&T version of the note 3 so that it has chinese language settings on it. My father (who is using the phone) cannot read in English. I am on the MI9 right now, that is before the new update right? Is the bootloader locked for MI9 too?
Would these work? samsung-updates (.) com/device/?id=SM-N9002&details=Galaxy_Note_3_DUOS

No chance of anything on this phone except what it came with.

Not even if it's Samsung's own stock firmware? Just for the chinese version of the note 3.

no need to flash new rom, all you need to do is root your phone, then go download morelocale 2 from playstore. now open the app you just downloaded, on the right side of upper corner you should see custom locale in green color. click and open, now change language to zh instead of en, country US to CN, then click set and exit app.enjoy!

Thank you so much! I tried some other apps before but they didn't change the settings to chinese, just the app names. Just tried more locale 2 and it worked perfectly

Actually, it did not work I made the mistake of trying morelocale on my s4 and it worked.. so I assumed it worked for the note 3 too. When I tried it, only the app names were changed.. not the settings themselves.

Ok, just got my note 3 today so let me try to root my note 3 first and test it out see if I can change system locale to Chinese.

[Q] Tmobile language pack

hey,
I need to have my note 4 on dutch. the stock rom doenst have this language and i was not able to find any rom for this variant with the language i need.
I would like to know what i need to do to get an international rom working on the device. I already got one rom working only was not getting any signal, i allready looked into the issue but im not sure if it is a kernel/bootloader problem or if is just not possible anyway to get any international rom working on my t mobile Note 4
Can somebody help me with this?
I also looked on how to import a language to the system but on my i was able to change some bits of the software to my language but system apps stay on english..
I really need someone to help me with this.
By the way i really struggle to understand why american carriers do this kind of **** to block everything??? i live in Belgium and every phone we buy is unlocked and we can do what we want with them

If you rooted you can try language enabler from play store.

Samsung Note SM-N9208 Duos

Hello,
I bought N9208 today with the knowledge that it is compatible to my current carrier TMobile. I have several questions for those who have this phone.
#1. Am I able to install the operating system from TMobile? I am basically a noob when it comes to rooting etc etc. The phone comes unlocked.
#2. What is the primary difference between the N9208 and TMobile' N920T. I purchased this phone because it has 2 Sim slot and I like the Titanium color.
#3. What should I be doing first upon receiving the phone? How can I add flash software to this phone?
#4. Does unlock also mean the phone is rooted?
Any help or advise is greatly appreciated. Thank you for the patience.

-> im not sure, but most likely not at the moment.
#2. What is the primary difference between the N9208 and TMobile' N920T. I purchased this phone because it has 2 Sim slot and I like the Titanium color.
-> Tmobile phone will have Tmobile bloatwares
#3. What should I be doing first upon receiving the phone? How can I add flash software to this phone?
-> Worship its beauty. Flash software???, what year is it man... Flash passed away already.
#4. Does unlock also mean the phone is rooted?
-> no unlock means you can use it with any carrier you can think of. if you want to root, go here , this worked wonder for my 9208.
Any help or advise is greatly appreciated. Thank you for the patience.

I think you shouldn't do anything to your phone during a few days, to make sure that everything works fine. With an unlocked phone you'll be able to use any SIM card, and with a rooted phone you'll be able to see, modify and delete system files that otherwise can't be seen, so if a phone is unlocked it doesn't mean that it's also rooted.
To flash a new ROM you can use Odin.

Thank you, the tracking says my phone will arrive tomorrow. I will make sure it works fine with TMobile before doing anything else.
Oh... what do you mean by "To flash a new ROM you can use Odin?" Does this mean I can use TMobile's operating system and not from Taiwan's since this is from Taiwan? Sorry i am really a noob when it comes to this.

You can't use a firmware of the N920T on your N9208, as they are different models. You can only install a firmware that is specific for your device model.

So what should I do? lol I don't want Taiwan's apps. I would like to cater my phone as closely as TMobile's.

I have the N9208 and use it on TMOUS. It does not come with any Taiwan apps, just all Samsung official apps. The traditional Chinese keyboard and handwriting recognition are on by default. I have not tried turning them off since I do write in Chinese sometimes. You cannot install TMO FW as they are two different models. The main difference is that the TMO supports Samsung Pay while the N9208 does not yet since it is not supported in TW yet. It is not rooted by default.

So what should I do? Just leave it alone for now, and not root it? Can the keyboard be changed to simplified chinese?

It's up to you, just know that if you do root, it will trip Knox. That means you won't be able to use Samsung Pay if it gets released in the future and Android Pay unless there is some workaround. Yes, there is Simplified Chinese. You can also always download third party keyboards if you prefer.

Oh, what do you mean by "traditional chinese on by default?" I mostly type in English, so I hope English Language can be on default. I currently have Note 3, and if I swipe the space key, it switches to simplified chinese. Is Note 5 similiar to this that?
I guess I will leave it alone for a bit and see how it does. I read on the T Mobile forum at Tmobile website and it says N9208 does not have "LTE" and that wi fi calling isn't available? Is this true though?
Thanks

I just received my Note 5 N9208, and there isn't simplified chinese. Do I go to google play to download it? Also, the weather, how do I add multiple cities' weather? I am not liking the Samsung keyboard already. Can someone help? thanks

I just mean that when you first use the device the default keyboard and handwriting are set to both traditional Chinese and English. Yes you can deselect Traditional and change it to English. On the Note5 you just click on the globe key and it will change the language. It does support LTE. I posted a picture in a post somewhere, you can look at my history to find it. It does not have wifi calling from what I can tell.

I read elsewhere in the forum that the N9200 (China Note 5) does not come with the google play store and that rooting is often required to get it. I don't want to root. Does the N9208 come with the google play store? I assume yes since it's the Taiwan version, but would love to get some confirmation. Thanks! My plan is to use the phone on AT&T in the US states, and on China Mobile in China (N9208 should be fine for use in China as long as not using China Telecom, from what I've seen on frequencycheck).

International ROM with Czech language support

Hi,
I am looking for a way to enable using international languages in setting the SM-N910T. I need to send it to my mom in Prague and she does not speak English (not enough to understand the phone). I installed CM13 ROM on her phone, but now the Gear Fit Manager will not recognize the phone as Samsung phone and will not install. Does anybody know another ROM which supports Czech language (I mean the phone actual language as far as all menus and labels), or a way to install it as an add on?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

n960n flashing

hi guys i am having a problem right now. my first note 9 was a n9600 snapdragon hk variant it was replaced by the vendor due to factory defect and was replace by a n960n single sim 512gb special edition model. my question is, is it possible to flash this with other official firmware to remove bloatwares from KTc to let say other exynos model? thank you in advance.

nope.( maybe with adb commands you can manualy disable/delete packages)https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access
if you root then you can do what ever but if not, then you are stuck. all 4 firmwares/carriers available for the n960n have bloat.And no you cant flash with odin an n960f stock firmware.

thanks @bober10113. sorry im kinda new in this things. another question. is it possible to change those language i see in samsung members and and other samsung apps? because right now all i see is korean language. is there anyway to change this to english/local language?

that would again be because of the csc installed.( one of the big 4 korean carriers. again if rooted wouldint be an issue to switch.

thank you again @bober10113 for giving me a clear picture. another question. is it possible to flash other n960n official firmware? right now i have a korean version of it. is it possible to flash it with n960n english?

well i am not sure if for example LG+ ( LUC ) would have more 'english' menus but you can try.... yeah LG has a carrier and they sell Samsung phones! my note 8 was a N950N LUC and on the box there was an LG+ logo !
past 2 phones have been Korean models that i specifically bought and have not had any issues or defects. I always root and it has been quite easy because it has the OEM unlock option right away, no need to wait 7 days.
also since i dont need knox or samsung pay, root is the way to go for me. so much fun i wouldint live without rooting.

i guess root is the way. i dont need knox and samsung pay either because its not usable in our country and no merchant here supports it. thanks @bober10113. and last can you put me in the direction of the guide to root my phone? again thank you so much.

you might to read through the thread. especially the last 10 posts or so.

hi again @bober10113. i have read the link you gave me. now my question is if i install twrp then install magisk will i be able to install local firmwares like n960f? and will this still trip knox? even though its a official firmware? thanks.

once twrp is installed all bets are off. knox will be tripped.
but this will allow you to install magisk disable or delete bloat.
if this is not enough then you will be able to download a new rom.
a rom is a custom firmware. so you could get a rom that has everything you are looking for. usualy all roms for exynos and for N960F/ds. they will also contain full english locale.
have a look in this thread and see which Rom suits you better:

once twrp is installed, fone is considered as being modified. so might aswell take advantage of root.
And if i remember correctly to be able to boot into system, right now on the note 9 you need magisk to be flashed in twrp recovery.
so there issint really a way around it for now.( others can confirm or correct me on this).
alexander rom might be the exception though. read thread and post questions there if need be concerning a rootless install.
but magisk su has an 'su hide' feature where it will hide the system modification and root status from certain apps. you can even hide magisk from specific apps too. so if you need to install specific software that only runs in stock unmodified systems, it may very well work if these features are enabled correctly.

thank you ver much @bober10113. will check those threads. and go on with twrp magisk custom rom combo.
