Dear Mods,
I know I'm not alone when I say this, but we would like our own forum for our Canadian variant of our device. As our device is significantly different from other variants, and nobody likes specific projects for N900W8 to be jumbled along with ROMs for N900 or N9005 (as they can't be installed on a W8 device without major issues), I would like to start a poll to gather people who would like a clean forum, not a forum with three different variant's ROMs jumbled up together that aren't cross flashable.
Also asking questions and finding solutions is easier when the entire forum uses the same device, so a solution for the specific device is much more convenient in the same forum!
Also go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46446026&postcount=11600 to like my post and also post a quick reply saying you want the N900W8 as well!
Thanks a lot!
Nicholas

This sure would make things a lot easier that's for sure...especially once things really get going with development and once our phones have roms released
I agree with this idea!
Yes please !
Another yes. It's always been jumbled together with AT&T and then i have to manual filter to find items that are applicable.
+1 On this. Right now I'm reading on different sub forums to find out which model my phablet actually is compatible with.

Agreed we need our own forum since the cross flashing as seen with s3 and s4 arent going to apply with N3 so it would seem.

flashing Roms even from other versions of the same model don't work. We definitely need our own board.

Short answer is no...
We just don't want to be lumped into the U.S.A providers.

It's because the model from bell also has w8, so was thinking maybe all Canadian models are the same

Bell/telus..rogers/fido probably.
Wind runs on diff frequencies. ..people on wind dont even get LTE. having this phone and no lte is like having a ferrrari but you cant take it out of first gear!
At the very least wind users will need to flash another baseband to run a rogers or bell ROM

I'm just wondering, would it be possible to eventually kind of convert the Canadian Note 3 variant into an American variant? I don't think I've read about any hardware differences between the two variants. Also, I can't imagine there would be too much development for just the Canadian Note 3 alone (or has there been an active developer community for Canadian devices previously?).

For your information, the Galaxy S4 have his own section in the forum :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2257
As you can see, there is plenty of roms and folks exchanging informations, tips and bugs for the same device, which make sense for me
Just remind every one, not only Canadian is using N900W8, N900W8 is a very large group. Mexico, Many South America country is using N900W8 too.
Plz develop this model phone.

I think that is because at&t is SGH-i337 and rogers/bell is SGH-i337M; T-mobile is SGH-M919, Wind is SGH-M919V.
But now the model name is big difference, dont know if the hardware has different or is bootloader lock or not difference.

Yeah that's why there's a / in the title too
That raises a question too. Is the Wind version of W8 actually the same as the Robellus W8? Even though numbers match up, we won't know till we can compare the stock ROMs with each other.

So I'm trying to consider whether I will purchase the International version or the LTE Canadian version...
I know that in terms of the processor's, quite frankly, they are identical for performance, with the LTE having better cores but the International having 4, so this isn't exactly a problem of "which is better"..
What I'm curious about, is how easy/likely are ports of ROMs and Mods going to be from the international version to the LTE version? Because quite frankly even if the Canadian version is outright better I want some dev support.. :/
What do you guys think? Same dilemma as with the HOX intn'l vs LTE ><
I will take LTE speeds and the 2 GB memory...

No yeah they seem awesome and the CPU will perform pretty much identically, but I really like the dev community the HTC Desire Z had and I want something similar :/
There probably wont be many ports of international roms if any at all. Though, if the Canadian and US versions are the same that will certainly bring more to the lte version in the way of development.
I'm getting the international version version for several reasons.

Considering our model numbers are different and our bootloaders are unlocked we seem to be making progress here in these forums but continue to have people get mixed up with their AT&T variant and ours.
This consistently leads to comments about how something won't work or to not do anything since our bootloaders are locked when they aren't because we have the canadian variant.
Just a request to avoid confusion between the two devices and parties.

Agreed. For a while, most of the discussion of the Canadian variants were in the general section of the international S4 forum, which is not really the same phone.

By segregating forums it's not going to help development later when the bootloader are unlocked for the AT&T version.

Here's why, there are 5+ mobile operators in Canada using the same phone with the same unlocked everything. In the America you have 3 different variants depending on the carrier. By segregating we are less likely to cause confusion between us and one of the plethora of variants in America, less bricked devices and better specific support for said device. To have a canadian subsection for any and all Canadian phones would be beneficial to the community and development progression as we could continue to develop and create without the risk of being detrimental to your community in its current state.

They do. Not to mention our LTE band is different here, so we can't just flash AT&T custom ROMs without flashing our own Canadian carrier branded radios.

Most likely everything will be interchangeable once the bootloaders are unlocked and they will be by the end of this month.
If nothing is interchangeable or the devices prove to be completely incompatible in many ways then separate them.
At this point, if there was no point in separating the forums, and a Dev made an awesome ROM, he would probably receive a lot more donations if the forums are kept together if and ONLY IF they are compatible development wise.
Waiting 3 weeks isn't going to kill you.

As mentioned, the radios are different and we use different LTE bands. Any ROM made for the AT&T version would require us to flash a Canadian modem at the least.
Anyway, when all the major carriers with 95%+ of the subscribers in this country are using the exact same phone, I think our model # should at the very least be put in the title of one of the forums. That would keep posts concentrated better instead of being spread between this forum and the international forum.
Then again, our phone is just as much an I9505 as it is an I337. Just different radio.

Does Note 8 LTE not going to have any dev support? Does LTE based ROM more troublesome that the 3G counterparts?

My bet is that development comes in full force. Att is offering such a sweet bundle deal on the N1520 that its hard to resist picking it up when you buy either the Note2 or the SGS4. Speaking of those two LTE devices, look at all the developent they are getting!
Patience...
As for separate threads:
I wouldn't bet on it until after the proliferation of development makes it hard to navigate within the existing shared thread.
Edit:
My mistake, looks like the Note8 that att has a deal on is the I467 not the N5120 (just checked in About Device).
Where are the N5120's coming from?
agree!

N5120 is 3g + LTE model for around the globe (minus US, which is in a totally different world of their own)...
N5100 is 3G model
N5110 is wifi only model
I would love that too. Looked through the dev forum and not a single custom kernel for n5120.

N5120 is the only model selling in Hong Kong.
+1 from me also, problem is that we need some devs to own a LTE-device and then also develop for it. A thread is good and all, but it wont magicaly make ROMS and Mods appear
And hopefully now that Samsung released 4.2.2 for the N5120 we might see some more things pop up
Guys, there is a mod post for requests in the main forum. Please post there as well.

just got this model as well over the weekend. been enjoying the ride so far.

In singapore, we only sell 5110 or 5120 model... haha... there isnt any 5100 model for us....
On a side note, i would strongly recommend all users of 5100 + 5120 models to buy Sony SBH52... its not released yet, but it would make a great complement to our device...

Hi everybody. I just wonder if is it safe to flash csc from n900 to n9005. As many of us bought the 4G note 3 for its amazing SD800, but they live in counties where only HSPA+ N900 is available.
Maybe we can share our personal experience in the matter.
Feel free to add complement information. This would help a lot of people here.

I don't think so. As it's mostly xml files that include configurations relative to county's carriers. I don't think it has direct effect on the hardware
