Enable LTE in Galaxy I9500 , How?
someone know?
You just can't. Why not try to run Windows Server 2012 on it while you are at it... The phone just does not have an LTE enabled radio. Good luck enabling anything short of soldering one (well there is more than that involved but whatever, you should be getting the idea)

Yes the Exynos 5 CAN support LTE but the i9500 does not.
Samsung were most likely referring to the "SHV-E300K/L/S", the South Korean version which is running the Exynos but also includes an LTE chip.

but the chip in i9500 is the same as Korean variant its just over clocked... there would definitely be some method to do it!
just wait for XDA GENIUS developers....
cause on xda anything can happen
one car can have audio system, other dont. why car without audio can't play music?

To All who are interested (TMO ppl) The South Korean Note is scheduled to be released on 11-29-11. This will be a variant of the Euro version and is scheduled to have penta-band capability (1700/2100) It also is a LTE version capable of 42 mb d/l (theoretically) You can read more here:

This will be the version that is supposed to be compatible with T-Mobile USA.
No exynos though.

The article says 1.5 ghz dual core, Exynos doesn't make 1.5. Take a look at the Galaxy Skyrocket...

Provided by SK Telecom, wiki says they are CDMA based provider not GSM.

If some people think there is lag on the Note with the 1.4Ghz Exynos they'll really think it lags with the 1.5Ghz Snapdragon.

Which means it uses Qualcomm S3 which means will likely support T-Mobile band. Great.

I doubt it'll be a problem if you root and get rid of the bloats and after developers get rid of Carrier IQ.
Questions is who's selling their 1.4hz to get the new 1.5hz. I know Im really looking at getting this one as soon as it becomes available in the us. EBAY here i come...

Unless your in an LTE market that this Korean Note will work on and you have an Unlimited data plan there's no reason to get it. The 1.5Ghz Snapdragon is slower than the 1.4Ghz Exynos in the current non-LTE Note. It's slower than the 1.2Ghz Exynos in the SGS2 and people have commented on how the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket which also uses the 1.5Ghz Snapdragon isn't as snappy as the SGS2.
Hold on you know what we should try first, the modem file. Lol

I know but Im looking at the fact that Im a t-mobile user with 3 phones on a family plan and Wish my note worked on t-mobile 4g. And I didn't have to run to at&t for service.

Cute Touche' Does anyone Know a Korean a website in English they have run into for ordering from the USA
As far as the snapdragon being slow, remember I have tried both chips and unless you are a gamer it is not that noticeable of an issue especially, when new roms start rolling out.
Has anybody found out what bands this new Galaxy Note from Korea will support I can't find anything.
I heard all bands, 1700 aswell.

Not really worried about NFC yet until more stuff works with it I just want it to work with T-Mobile

Hello, at the end of the month I'm playing in buying this phone, I've seen you can get the i9500, I9502, i9505 I'm not sureif there's any more, what's the difference? Cheers
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda premium
9500 is the exynos 8 core without LTE
9502 is the dual sim version
9505 is the snapdragon SD6000 quad core with LTE

Lte is 4g right? So the i9500 doesn't have 4g? Is the i9505 the best without duel sim?

Yup. 9500 doesn't have 4G.
9500 is better than 9505 (if 4G is not a factor); Exynos 8 core, wolfson DAC and (some said) better camera sensor.
However, if 4G matters to you, go with the 9505. The difference is not a lot.

But the processor on the i9505 is 1.9 instead of 1.4? :S also does the i9500 have 2Gb of ram? I rang the guy at the shop and they said the phone had 4G capabilities? :S haha! Thanks for your help guys

1) Different architectures (Krait for the 9505, A15/A7 for the 9500), so the frequency isn't directly convertible to speed. The 9505 is clocked at 1.9GHz, and the 9500 is clocked at 1.6GHz (1.2GHz for the small A7 cores)
2) All Galaxy S4 models have 2GB of RAM.
3) Some telcos call HSPA+ "4G", despite it being more properly called "3.75G". BTW, LTE is also not officially 4G: that would be only for LTE Advanced, with downlink exceeding 1Gbps. If you want the "4G" people are getting excited about now, that would be LTE, supported only by the 9505 among international S4 models.
So the standard one is 1.6ghz? Really was looking forward to 4G, can't find the i9505 on contract though :/ unless anyone knows how to get them? So might end up buying an unlocked i9505

Anyone using an i9505 in Canada, can you confirm whether LTE works or not? Thanks.
If LTE works, I would like to get an i9505. If not, then probably an i9500.

Yeah, it would seem like Rogers have 2600 as well but I just wanted to be 100% sure that it would work. As for my purchase choice, I would prefer to get LTE but if LTE is simply not an option then I would go for the octa-core.
Hi,
Does the corean version have a better quality?
Some people say me more RAM. Is that true?
Thanks
You mean to the Korean?

The Korean models use a different sound chip and lte modem. They have a DMB tuner that only works in Korea. Also some of the default apps are different.
There is less development going on for the Korean models. ROMs, kernels, etc are few.
CPU, RAM, etc. are the same.
Do you live in Korea?
Living in Korea would be the only reason to buy a Korean model.

It depends on model.
If you mean SHV-E300S/K/L, the there is no reason to buy it now. There are no advantages comparing to GT-I9500 except LTE which will work only in Korea.
But if you mean SHV-E330S/K/L model then it worth to think because of faster CPU (SD800). Also this model is fully compatible with GT-I9506 by firmware. You can flash system.img.ext4 from I9506 and get normal international version without any Korean pre-installed apps and won't have SMS problem.
But you always has to care about cellular frequency bands compatibility with your region before buy!
Sigh. For the N900 users, maybe you can answer this question!
Any of you users using At&t? Have LTE?

n900 exynos doesn't support 4g LTE, hardware issue.
Only snapdragon devices supports LTE, Exynos SM-N900 have one 3g
