N9208 ROM Compatibility - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What happens if I install a N920C/i/(or any single SIM) ROM on my N9208 (dual SIM) phone? Only SIM 1 will work or my phone will be bricked?

Compatible with all N920C roms.
Thanks for looking in

Did you successfully installed the room of N920C on N9208? If you did, can you please share how you did it?
I have a N9208 from Taiwan, I live in Latin America and the modem seens not to work properly. I would really appreciate any help.

I just installed the ROM without any patches. Only SIM 1 will work so don't worry if SIM 2 doesn't work.

Difference between N9200 and N9208

Any thoughts. Both N9200 and N9208 support the same LTE bands. I assume the difference is something to do with level of Chinese language support? I ask as I have N9208 and this set to English does not work consistently for keyboard predictions and S Pen handwriting input, not as good as the UK only Note 4.
I did some research. Looks like both models the same except N9208 is dual SIM. So both probably have special support for Chinese.

No such problems here - Set mine to English & everything is in English.

Perhaps I need to reset. So your S Pen input instead of keyboard with the 4 quadrants works okay?

I've installed SwiftKey so that may help with improved predictions.
Hey mate, how did you go with English language support issues on your Note 5, as I'm planning to get 9208, but want to make sure, everything works as normal. Any help is appreciated.

both N9200 and N9208 are dual-sim
but N9200 it have extra CDMA bands (2G CDMA - CDMA800 , 3G CDMA- BC0(800), 3G TD-SCDMA B34(2010), B39(1880))
N9200 are for Hong Kong and China Open
N9208 are for Taiwan, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Mayanmar, Indonesia, India, Mayalesia, Philipines
in rest are the same
I have a N9200 HK model which I got imported. Now I am using the phone in India, is it possible to flash N9208 firmware on N9200 from sammobile via odin as both are dual sim phones with same hardware.
so... when I put rom from N9208 to N9200 should be ok with bands on second sim ?

I am quite certain that N9208 ROM won't work on N9200 since none of the other N9208 ROMs work on N9208 (not even N9208 Indian ROM works on Taiwan variant) (pretty differently built hardware maybe). Since there is no cross-device compatibility of N9208 with any other, hence I am guessing that vice-versa also may not be possible. It could return an error in ODIN during flashing.
Although, I'd say you may be lucky if you try downloading from sammobile and flashing through ODIN. Let us know how it goes, it may be helpful for folks who have been trying to install cross-device stock ROM on Note5 (especially us N9208 Taiwan variant users). :fingers-crossed:

May I ask why is that? I was confused by N920c and N920i. Anyway finally I bought 920c randomly.
Basically 920c covers almost entirely every network in the world
In the UK you can use all 4g networks with 920c
But 920i only covers some of the network not just UK other European countries networks to
european users: 920C or 920CD (dual sim)
Thanks for the responses all
Will sm n920c work in Indian airtel 4g
does n920c and 920t firmwares are compatible?
N920c or N920i for 4g network in India
I also have similar dilema will N920c work with airtel 4g band 40 in India

Note 5 N9208 dual sim not supporting Jio volte

Sir,
I have N9208 dual sim note 5 bought in Malaysia. It is not showing volte option with my jio sim but 4g data is working great. The sim when installed on my j7 is showing volte. How to enable volte on my note 5 duos phone. Do i need to install a new rom, if so then which one.
Please help me Sir, i am in a great distress.
Thanks in advance.

I am also using N9208 in malaysia and here no network supports volte only 4g.
That's why it's disabled in the stock rom, you can head over to sam mobile and search for N9208 roms and according to the region where volte works you can download the ROM and report back.
Also after flashing the rom if you want to change CSC, you may have to factory reset.

CSC is the region code, sorry I am not aware of any country from that list which is using volte.
You have to search.

I downloaded the official rom from sam mobile.
I installed it and then formatted it. And then inserted the 4g sim on sim 1 slot. After 10 minutes volte started working.

Method mentioned above definately works..
Check two things ... hard format and clean install India ROM from sammobile
Also verify sim is in slot 1 and lte is enable for sim slot 1
verify settings of JIO...it should definitely work...

Do a factory reset after flashing the rom. This will do the trick.

Seems they forgot about all the Latin American n920g devices. I have an unlocked Trinidad and Tobago n920g and don't have official either ?
Just give it a go, it shouldn't break your device - like an LG phone can.
I see the occasional post of someone having success on a g variant for c firmwares.

they are already unlocked, you just need to check if they use the same bands in NZ.
I used my N9 in England without a problem with the stock firmware.

What model is your device sm-n960F or SM-N9600 i am in NZ and have SM-N9600 which is the Asia and south american variant
there is no NZ Firmware for it and you wont be able to receive VOLTE (Some helpful error about not being supported on this software version) but you can get Wifi Calling from 2degrees
