Can anyone help me out? I am trying to replace a screen for my SM-N9600 lavender purple phone (purchased from Hong Kong). However, as I'm in Canada, no service places can get the correct part (especially as I'd like to keep the purple frame). Does anyone know where I can purchase the correct model replacement screen? Apparently international models/screens are not interchangeable. The repair shops here will replace it for me if I can get the part.
Alternatively, I will be travelling to Taiwan next month, does anyone have any recommendations of places in Taipei for the repair? I could not find out any information if it is the same model as the HK phone.
Any leads would be appreciated, thanks!

on both links, it is suggested that the compatibility is in fact for all models. which wouldint be surprising.

Hi! I'm interested to buy the new HTC Tytn II which is still not locally available here in the Philippines. The only option I have right now is to purchase it online and have it shipped here. I'm a little bit concerned though because this is a fairly expensive device and I do not want to end up being scammed by some bogus online site. I hope someone can give me a recommendation based on past experience from an online retailer.
Also, does anyone know if HTC has worldwide support/ warranty for their products regardless where it was purchased?
Thank you and any feedback will greatly be appreciated.
Just got one in Hong Kong, the price is HKD$ 6000.
I don't think the HTC will provide worldwide warranty.
Thanks ben_998. Did you get yours directly from a HK based store or online? If you got it online, please give me their URL so I can inquire about shipping the device to my location.

Samsung has "blocks" of warranty service. For Europe and North America - there are separate blocks. Extract from Samsung support:
"Samsung Electronics Ltd supports a product purchased in Europe if it has an EU Bloc Warranty. This warranty is present where the top of the product warranty card clearly states 'European Bloc'. If the product is purchased in another part of the globe then Samsung may attempt a repair. Samsung Electronics Europe Ltd cannot guarantee the outcome."
So basically they "may but don't have to" repair European device in the US.

Absolutely not....you will need to send it back to the country from which it came if you need to get it fixed. I was in the same boat a while back with "The Monster" kernel fiasco...I just ended up buying a new phone instead...which actually turned out to be better than my last.
Hi there, International Galaxy Note community. I have a question I'd like you ask about when purchasing the International Note for use in North America.
Is there a valid warranty for the international Note if I purchase it in a different country and then use it in North America? Specifically Canada. If there is a valid warranty for the Note in Canada, can someone provide me with the terms of the warranty when in Canada?
Thank you for your help, International Note community.

Good luck with that one....
I have just spent the last 3 months searching for usb ports and mainboards, repair shops in Canada, Europe and the U.S., Ebay for for broken N7000s and getting things working on Bell's network. And as of 15 minutes ago, I'm finally done fixing the last detail on the Note, and its back to normal. But what an ordeal it was...
Somebody else can tell you about the warranty. But you're probably on your own with this one. So your options if you have a hardbrick;
Search threads for a successful recovery..
Jtag repair...http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-note/
Ebay (like me..) for a broken screen N7000, which I used to replace my the motherboad and USB port. Mine was $265...
I would say hunt for a M/B. But the search was long, with many dead ends (Europe) and language barriers (India and Asia). And there are repair shops in Europe, but no shop will ship a phone via air (Thanks to 9/11).
Hope this cuts down on some of your search to repair your Note.

Oh, no. I don't have a damaged Note. I was just looking to purchase one since I'm somewhere in Asia and have the possibility of picking up the international version. I just wanted to know about possible repair options if it ever did break.
So pretty much if I purchase a Note and it breaks down one day, then I am on my own. Correct?

Hi all,
Am travelling to the UK at the end of next month, and I noticed that MobiCity UK are stocking the 64GB 801S variant (Asian variant).
Would you think this is legit? I mean, why would they be stocking it in the UK? It fits perfect for me though, coming from Israel (it fits all our mobile provider frequencies..) - so am seriously thinking of picking one up when I get over there..
Also - the warranty issue - would I be covered by the HTC warranty? I understand that MobiCity won't cover me (as they need someone within the UK to purchase it with a UK address), but if HTC warranty is covered, I guess that's good enough. Or is it?
Bump... anyone?
Perhaps your local HTC office can answer questions about their warranty policy.
I have a bit of an odd question. I need to pickup a Samsung SM9208 next week and am in HK for a 2.5 hour layover.... Not enough time to head into the city. However, does anyone know if one of the stores at the airport carry the 64 GB Model? I know that there are a few cellphone shops in the airport but was wondering if the 64 GB model was readily available in HK. Unfortunately, eBay isn't an option where I'm living and traveling too so window is likely all I can get to pick this up.
Thanks for all the help!

It doesnt get that detailed online. Best hurry and check Nobletime and a3 while you can.
Just so that you know if there is any problem with the Smartphone they will make you take it up with Samsung in Hong Kong. If there is any scratch on the smartphone they will not replace. The smallest scratch that you could imagine and they will only fix it. I believe the return policy in Hong Kong is 1 or 2 weeks by law. In Taiwan it is 1 week by law and after that it goes to repair shop.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be taking it out of the country in less than an hour so I'm going to be stuck with this one way or another! I can't see a downside of using this over the US models. I live in Asia, travel a ton in Asia, Europe and have a T-Mobile US line that I want to keep in my phone all the time so I don't miss texts and calls while still using a "local" sim for data, etc.
I doubt HK Airport would have 64G as the rest of HK officially only has 32G models (silver and gold).

Typical Samsung HK. So many models they only bring in the base model. Had to pick up my Note 5 64GB in Taiwan.
If you do buy run it through *#0*# (General Test Mode) before handing over the cash. Not that I have ever had a Samsung phone with as much as a single dead pixel.
Good Luck.

I don't know my regions and I don't know if the HK version is region locked but if it has a region sticker on the box be sure to use an HK SIM card to activate and for your first five minute phone call on it so that you do not wind up being "region locked".
