Note 5 - N920P - Use in Germany? - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I had to reinstall my Note 5. I downloaded the original Firmware for my N920P on Sammobile. But now I have the issue, that I can not connect to a provider. I am asked for the PIN and the SIM-Card is unlocked. But I only get the "no connection" sign.
The "Samsung DM Service" tries to activate the phone, but only gets "no respond" 5 times and tries again...
Before this the old ROM was working fine. I did not check, but it seems to me that it was a custom rom or an old variant.
Is there any other method?
I am not afraid of installing something customized, as long as it works in Germany.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Not registered in Network => Return to Vodafone?

Dear all,
I just want to make sure that my vodafone LTE S3 GT-I9305 is ready to be given back to vodafone shop (sim card is not recognized at all, either some kind of lock or simply broken). also got message "not registred in network". vodafone employer came to us in store showing us the s3 saying "just want to show you the color". now i figured out that the box was already open when he came to us....
got phone yesterday but never tested phone function before rooting. used CF root with CWM and later also CF auto root to get back stock recovery. also resetted flash count. never flashed anything else, especially no other image. just did these two root options.
my questions:
- after final root with CF auto root I used Triangle Remove and Downloader showed count of zero, binary "Samsung Original" and system "Samsung Original". But after resetting phone (wipe in recovery console) it shows system in downloader "custom" (binary is still samsung...flash count still zero "no"). Is this normal?
- is recovery console the original one?
- am i good enough to go back to vodafone with this?

Some more information, because I saw some post on other poeple having same problem with "Not registered in network"
Maybe it is some issue, because phone might have been unlocked before I bought it or imported from somewhere. You never know what those guys in vodafone shops really sell to customers....Or it might be locked although it should not be locked. As I said before...Only rooted phone, but never flashed any other image or radio version. Basically only thing that was changed was to put on CWM after first root....and using CF Auto root to get back stock recovery...
MORE OVER==== IN SETTINGS IN STATUES it says=
network=not know
service state=out of service
roaming=not roaming
ERI version =not available
mobile network state =disconnected
serial no=it is shown (but i will not post it here)
imei=Not known
device status= Customized (in German "Geändert")
Might have lost IMEI....also tried *#06#....show "null/null"...
why does it say System Status : Cusrom And werent you the person who sister tried to root it and you didnt know what root she used because now ther is not any imei showing?

[Q] HELP - Phone cannot connect to any mobile network cyanogenmod 10.1

I bought the a samsung GT-I9000 off ebay, it was locked to vodafone and running standard OS.
Despite soft bricking it I did a factory restore, rooted and flashed it with cyanogenmod 10.1.
Everything is working, except I cannot to any mobile network. When I try to connect it says "cannot connect at this time, try again later" or it encountered "an error". It takes ages doing this as well.
The APN settings are all there and correct as I can compare them to my rooted HTC which works fine on the same ROM.
The IMEI number is given by *#06# and this is also given in the phone information. The same IMEI is on the back of the phone under the battery as well.
If I leave the phone on, it gives Orange (EE ) as the network but says emergency only i.e no service.
I rang Orange and they said there is no problem , which I suspected, as my HTC work fine. Orange also said there is no problem with the phone relating to IMEI - its not stolen.
Can anyone help please? Thanks in advance

Hi again
Two questions: is the phone unlocked now? Did you have the connection with this same SIM card by using previously flashed ROM?
If both answers "yes", your presently installed baseband is probably not compatible with the region where you live. Google after the regional codes (letters in your baseband version) and find the right one for your region. Here are all flashable baseband versions for the CyanogenMod:

I won't have internet next few days, but you may make it now alone.... good luck, mate

I upgraded to stable 10.1.3 last night, simply thinking what do I have to lose? and it worked for a bit then stopped.
Whats stranger is it started working when I got to work - it doesnt recognise EE which is the company who bought Orange/T-Mobile but it connects to Orange or T-Mobile and works as Orange......
It connected to providers last night but never for more than a few seconds and then stopped.
I have called and texted from it and all now seems fine!

The phone lost signal when I got home - ultimately solved it by flashing it with modem XXJVP and updated APN to those given for EE, not Orange.
All been stable now for 3 days :laugh:

Galaxy Note 5 N920R - No Signal

Hello to Everybody,
3 days ago I bought in Hong Kong a new Samsung Galaxy Note 5, model N920R4, I think US Cellular. The Phone worked correctly with all the Sim Cards, but now, after a Soft Brick and a new Flash with Odin of a R4 Rom, the phone don't take the signal. He ask me to put the Pin Code but after that No Network
In the First Start, after a Flash with Odin, in the windows "Activate Device" I see a message... "Unsupported Sim card" . Maybe was Unlocked and with a new Flash I relock the Sim Card?
I tried with Chinese Sim card and Italian, the both worked correctly before. I'm sure that is not an HW issue.....but how I can fix?
Thank You very much
Ok, I think that my phone is not Locked. But there is somethings that don't allow it to have service. In the menu setting I can select LTE/GSM network but don't work. My MSL/SPC is 000000.... Can be this the problem?
Thank you guys
Hi try it with smart switch and it will download the right rom for you

chinese N920T board - another ROM

Hello everybody!
I flashed a lot of phones, however I am struggling with this Note 5 N920T a bit. Bought this mobo from Chinese reseller, looks like everything is working okay, however if I want to update the software, it reminds me that ROM was changed and I need it to flash it over cable. I am perfectly aware of ODIN, however the board is unlocked now for all the networks globally.
I tried to check the T-Mobile Device Unlock App, however tapping on a "Permanent unlock" option brings me message "Unlock failed" - try to reboot and try again.
So, questions!
1. I downloaded the Nougat original ROM for T-Mobile USA and generic ROM. Would you say that the device unlock will remain after flashing? I would try the T-Mobile firstly, if that will work, I´ll try the generic one. I assume it will be working again...but that sim unlock...will it last?
I wanted to do full backup, however the board is not rooted so I rather asked the reseller for sending me the ROM file that is actually in the phone (currently waiting for it)...and just roaming around about possibilities.
Thanks for any help in forward guys, you´re the best!
The unlock was probably done through third party software or a EFS method.
You can forget about the Device Unlock app from now on. It will remain unlocked as long as you don't rebuild the NV data.
That means that you can flash the T-Mobile firmware on it, or you can flash any other available custom ROM that can work on it.
The update error is probably appearing due to an unofficial system status.
Go to Settings>About device> Device status and make sure it says official.
If it says "Custom" then you have your answer. If it says "Official" already it's good to be flashed with the software of your choice. Is up to you!

Galaxy Note 5 N920V to N920 something else...

Morning there,
I've been reading all I've been able to since Monday here and also from search results in Google, but I still haven't got a clear idea if this is possible or not.
I live in UK and I've bought a new Galaxy Note 5, which I received last Saturday, the phone works fine, but it has a N920V firmware on it from Verizon US, and I want to get Android 7 on it.
Verizon hasn't updated the firmware for this phone since January this year, so no Android 7 on their network, at least I can't find any firmware on SamMobile.
I've downloaded Android 7 for it, but firmware N920C (for Turkey it seems...), I've tried to flash it with Odin v3.12.7, the phone has the FRP lock as OFF and I've gone into the developer options and turned ON usb debugging and OEM unlock, but Odin fails to flash it, I can still boot up the phone and use it as normal after Odin fails no issues, I just cannot flash it.
I don't want to root the phone, and I don't want to install any custom recovery or custom ROM either, I just want to install Android 7 and if possible have a firmware with less bloatware, hence I downloaded the N920C. I downloaded the latest N920C firmware available out of the 6 there is available, so if anyone here knows that I can use any of the other 5 and make it work I'll be happy anyway...
As always, many thanks for yourhelp in advance
Just contact me via whatsapp, and ill guide you. Because ive been pass the same problem with u.
+6282299180088
Can you explain it here? I don't use whatsup, sorry.
I've flahsed the phone with the latest Verizon firmware from SamMobile, I tried to flash it again with the N920C but didnt work.
Now with the latest Verizon firmware it always throws me an error when I restart the phone saying that the "SIM is not from Verizon", but still works on my EE SIM, so not too worried about that.
Also, I see now a red screen with Verizon name when I restart it, something I didnt have before....
Anyone knows how to get rid of these 2 things? or better even, how to flash the N920C firmware to it?
Thanks
