It's cheaper to order here than it is directly from Samsung.. Giving me a red flag.
Its the N950F, meaning its the Exynos 8895 version, and also says it comes with a warranty?
What is everyone's opinion on this?
I am looking at their site too in Canada. Anyone has got a device from them yet ?
They have a good reputation on eBay

Take a look at this e-shop.
It has nearly every Note's part. If you contact them maybe they can find and send you the mainboard.
Did a little search and found a few stores that you can contact. Give it try!
Hope i could help bro!

Hey guys,
I am thinking to get a Z1, I am not living in the US (I live in Hong Kong) and here're my options:
- Asia Version (not Japan/Hong Kong/China)
Concern:
The quality (Some says the quality isn't as good)
The firmware upgrade (maybe they will come slower)
- USA version
Concern:
It needs unlocking
Both of which are same price, which is around $150 cheaper than every other version.
So my questions are:
Is unlocking the carrier lock difficult/unsafe?
I don't plan to use it for 4G. Is there anything else I should be aware of when I look to buy a Z1?
thanks for reading anyway, hope to get some answers to help me out

Unlocking is very easy and safe, and will be unlocked permanently.
thanks but I can't find a cheap unbranded Z1, they cost just as much as the Hong Kong version.
I guess US version is the safer option to go then?

It's worth knowing that until Sony fixes it, there is a problem with the camera breaking when the bootloader is unlocked.

He was saing about Carrer Lock. So I do not mentioned that. They have nothing in common. Unlock Bootloader is necessary only to flash custom roms with custom kernels.That's all.

Don't buy Z1 as there are many faulty units out there. It's a hit or miss on a good or sucky unit

What are you talking about? Where? When? Avoid this kind of bad information please, is not good for a life of a forum.
My Z1 is perfect and I have never had a better phone.
Go ahead with it. :good:

Seems like you are misinformed about the problems out there. Why dont you try visiting the sony forums and see for yourself.
I got mine fromm Singapore, is it Asia version? Dunno anyhow its provlem free except for the touch ossue that everyone have...
Screen is pretty, great blacks, device runs fast and and doesnt over heat. My serial is bh90l... Is that Asia version?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
so i have made my decision to just buy the japanese version.
The screen apparently is more red (he showed me a hk version and a japanese version) which I like a bit more.
It comes with a charging dock and a 32GB internal memory which I like a lot.
Problem:
Updating can get very troublesome, I think I will have to stuck with the not so good firmware (comes with the .534 firmware and not the .213, what's worse is that I don't think i will ever get the .213)
other than that, the phone is perfect, I am still playing around with the camera thoguh

Hello everyone, as the title explain, i'm just before buying a used Oneplus 3 (originally bought in Germany) and i'm really not sure, what to check for. (for example at MI5 there is the GPS problem, which if a knew before, i could have checked it before i bought)
Is there anything similar with this phone? Were there know hardware bugs with certain models?
Can i somehow check based on serial with Oneplus?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I bought mine couple days ago (used) and everything is fine
Check the following:
1. If the other guy has bought it over the official OnePlus site (very important)
2. Check if the device has locked bootloader or not
3. Check for scratches on the Camera
4. Try pressing the screen a little bit hard to see if it has any flex or weird reaction (He may has changed the screen who knows???)
5. General testing (FP, Calling ETC)
No bugs with certain models (as far as I know)

Thank you very much for your fast reply!
1. Could you advice me further, how to check if it has been bought from the OnePlus site?
2. For the bootloader check does the keypad mode work (*#*#7378423#*#*), or shall i bring a laptop?
thanks again.

You're welcome
You can see check by checking on the receipt. It should have a order number and everything should look legit
No you don't. Just power off the phone and then power it up by pressing the Vol UP + Power button

Good evening friends!
I'm on the hunt for a new smartphone and found something interesting in eBay.
Please give me your opinion on if I should bid on this device, or not!
It's the 128GB 6GB RAM variant in quite good condition.
The seller states that
Android 10 installation couldn't be completed.
The installation process stops after a short time
Device reboots by itself

Also that
WIFI and mobile data are not available

I've read that on one hand that it's hardware/soldering issue,
and on the other hand that it might be just a software/firmware issue.
I've lots of experience in flashing all kinds of phones, including the Xiaomi Note 7 Pro (probably) of a friend.
So given I can unlock the bootloader and something can be done in software, I'm pretty sure I could do it.
Also I probably could open the device up and try to fix the mainboard.
Has anyone ever tried reflowing the mainboard?
Otherwise maybe I could replace the mainboard, if financially viable.
So please tell me if I should bid on it, and how much you reckon it might be worth!
Thank you very much and have a nice weekend!
My advice is to get a working phone. Instead of one where u have to repair. A working mi 8 is not expensive nowadays
