Note 5 for Germany?

Hello Guys, let anybody know where i can buy the Note 5 for use in Germany? And which Version? SM-N920..?
Thanks

There won't be Galaxy Note 5 for Germany and rest of Europe.

We already know that so, well most of us.
its unfortunate tho..

Maybe the OP wants to know if there are different versions (e.g. with different LTE bands) or region locks and if he has to look for a special version if he wants to import it?

I want to import the note 5. And i search seller where i can buy. But i dont know which Version.
I Know sm-n920a (AT&T) Has the same lte Bands. Verizon not. And also the language Support... AT ebay i found the note 5 in seoul korea

I don-t understand you.
Samsung is saying you-re less of a person than any other person in the world . They are not interested in your money and it has no worth to them and youre running off to give it to them anyway ?
German logic must be like German humour.
No one gets it .

There is a lock region on the device, you cannot import/export Samsung Phones.

YOu can use the N920i Version (Singapur). It hasn't the region lock and it works with all sim cards.

The South Korean electronics giant hasn't confirmed the release date of the upcoming Note device but it is almost certain that it will be unveiled at the "Unpacked 2015" event to be held at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center, New York City, on 13 August.In a shock move, Samsung has announced that the Galaxy Note 5 won't be coming to the UK this year, blaming the lack of release on "marketing reasons."

You need n920A for full compatibility

British Person Needing Help Buying T-Mobile Note 5

British person needing help buying T-Mobile Note 5
Hi I am on holiday in Michigan and I really want to pick up the Note 5 while I'm over here.
I have researched and found out that I need a T-mobile Note 5 as this has LTE band 20 and an unlocked bootloader.
I have tried to buy the phone from a T-mobile store but was unable to as they had no stock and was advised to phone or order it online but I am unable to do so as I need to answer questions about living here and having a US bank account etc.
Could anyone tell me how am I supposed to buy a phone in this country if all the bank cards and ID I have is from the UK and lastly if anyone has any advice how would I go about unlocking the phone?
Thanks for any help you might throw my way.
Cheers

Going on Holiday to Seoul.. Buying Note 5??

Hi All
September 1st I'm flying to Seoul for holiday and really wanna pick up a Note 5.
Does anyone know where the best place to buy is? Maybe dlight store in Gangnam?
Also do the Korean versions ever get root or roms?
Thanks!

the Delight store in Gangnam, the Galaxy store in Coex Mall... any Samsung mobile retail location. They were fully stocked as of release date as far as I saw last week and this week.
The only caution I would advise is make sure the Korean version supports the LTE band/bands you will need in your home country. I ended up having to buy one in the states because my phone company here uses Band 4, which the Korean Note 5 does not support.

I think the Korean one supports H+ on my current carrier... I can get sims that will work on there though.
I will head to dlight

That should be good enough. Good luck, and make sure to post pics of your Delight spoils! I've been home for 3 days and am already jealous of your trip

I love Korea!! Amazing place.. This will be my 5th time Fly out on tuesday, going to dlight as soon as ive dropped off my luggage lol

Korea is not very tourist friendly. Hard to even buy a sim card for visitors or tourists. If you are Korean with a Korean Passport and local ID then it should not be a problem. I believe that most telecom companies in Korea only sell carrier locked smartphones with contract and you need a local ID to buy one if I am not mistaken. Also pay attention to the 4G LTE bands on smartphone if you do manage to find one that you could buy unlocked. In the city you will notice that even some taxis will not stop to pick you up if they see that you are a white person.

@desiregeek my experience was the complete opposite. It's super easy to buy a SIM card at the airport from olleh or SK Telecom. Also, carrier locking is not as common as it is here...

You can only buy the rental sim card at the airport unless they recently changed the rules. You can not purchase an unlocked sim card at any of their carriers in South Korea. The ones at the airport are sort of like a rented SIM card. In Thailand,Hong Kong,China,Taiwan or pretty much every other Asian country one can get a SIM card at a 7-11 or telecom carrier that is unlocked of which visitors or tourists can purchase for use while in the country.

It's my 5th time in Korea lol. Never had any problems but I can speak Korean too so it helps. Posting from the note I bought now. Just trying to work out how to make a deodexed rom for the S model version

Visiting Busan

Im also visiting Busan in October and was thinking of picking up a note 5, if I may ask how much did yours cost?

Mine was 1 million won so around 520 I paid but was 64gb. Haha just on the ktx back from busan to seoul now!

It seems Finland might not get the Note 5 at all, so if I want one, I need to pick one up on my trip.
Thanks for the info, I guess you had a nice train ride with your new Note 5, enjoy!

Question Question on unlocked S21 Ultra 5g bought from Samsung

So here's my question. I was waiting for the T-Mobile version of the s21 ultra to be in stock in the 256gig version, but it seems like that is taking too long so I had purchased the unlocked version. Yesterday when I went into the T-Mobile store, I was told that it wouldn't be able to pick up 5g and a lot of the phone itself wouldn't be compatible. Does anyone know if this is true? Sorry I know I sound like a Noob because I am, but I'm just a bit worried. If that's the case I see about people flashing stuff. Would it be possible to flash say the T-Mobile stuff to the unlocked phone so it would work? Sorry for writing a book, just wanted to be thorough. Appreciate any feed back or answers.

They either lied to try and sell you a T-mobile version or they don't know what they are talking about. The US unlocked model works well with all the US carriers and has no issues picking up 5G and even supports WiFi calling.

Thanks a lot for responding with that info. I appreciate it.

I have TMobile and an unlocked s21 ultra. They work perfectly together. No issues whatsoever with 5g.

Dude that's awesome, I'm feeling way better about my purchase. Thank you for replying and letting me know. I appreciate it.

I have a S21 Ultra unlocked and carrier is TMobile, no problem so far.

T-Mobile has the least number of issues if you bring-your-own-device. It's Verizon that's a real PITA.

I'm grateful for everyone posting and sharing their experiences and uses. Thank you to everyone. Appreciate it.

Go to a different store. They lied to you. I bought mine from Amazon, it's the unlocked 128gb version, (the 256gb wasn't in stock during the sale. They both priced the same) and it works without a problem. T Mobile 5G works really good on it.

I'm getting 5G via T-Mobile on my unlocked S21 Ultra direct from Samsung. That shady store or salesperson straight up lied to you, they are ignorant about unlocked devices, or both.

I want to change IMEI of Samsung galaxy s21 ultra 5g

Changing of imei is illegal in most countries (if not all). You will not get any help with that on XDA...

As others have said, this isnt true.
One thing that is (ior certainly was a couple of years ago) was that Three didnt allow non three branded handsets to connect to their 800MHz supervoice service, which IME made a huge difference in the LTE days
