This hasn't been released yet. Keep an eye on the forums after april 11.

I haven't seen the TMo S5 yet but isn't the branding on the battery cover? My GN3 TMo is on the bettery cover. If so. Just get a OEM battery cover from eBay without any branding.

You can't post items for sale and this thread will be closed. Click on the Swappa link above or use eBay or whatever you've got in your country.
You can't sell it on xda however I would recommend you swappa.com

Dude don't close my thread please, im just trying to find out how much i should sell it for ? i would never ever sell it on XDA that's just asking for trouble... Thanks
Imagine now somebody answers your post "Hey, I want to buy your phone. I will give. Xxx$. Do you agree?"
- you see now why you can't make such threads? Because it may be a hidden offer...
A smart idea, but I hope Mods can smell it....
Different countries get different prices. Why don't you check your local market?
You can sell it for 1700 zł in Poland if you really want to get such answers in international forums...

Please check your local/online second hand market for an estimate of prices.

[Q] Buying N3 in China

Hi, I'd like some tips to choose which model of Note3 to buy in China.
SM-NXXX or tips to not get scammed.
I live in Italy, so which one is usable here? Or which one can be modded? Thanks ^^
Best tip to not get scammed:-
Don't buy it in China

What's bad about it? Did you get the dual sim one?
Most likely I have to buy/trade one there (giving back my HTC one 802t).
What's the difference between sm-n900, 900k and 9005?

my best advice, get your note 3 in your country, and from an authorized vendor, you will be covered against any malfuction or quality issues, the money you coul probably save buying on line, will never amount to the peace of mind a warranty offers you, I have returned some phones 3 or four, always getting a new one, if you buy on line, and specially fron china, what will you do in case of a sudden death or something else?
the forum is plagued with cases of people asking for help due to malfunctions that otherwise could have been solved through an authorized dealer in their respective countries, think about this, luck

If you want to have 4g then you cannot but one from China Mainland, none of them support 4g lte. You need to get one from Hongkong(SM-N9005). Do not get the SM-N900 as it is 3g only as well.
Here is the main ones you can buy from China/Hongkong:
9002: dual sim version, wcdma+gsm
9006: wcdma version
9008: TD-scdma version
9009: dual sim version, cmda2000+gsm
9005: 4g version, parallel imported from hongkong
900: wcdma. dual quad cores

Model-Language-Used

Hopefully im posting the the correct area.
Im looking at buying a used nexus 4 to replace mine.
Dumb question maybe to some but are they all the same model number? E960
Are they all the same as, use with any carrier?
Also, mine is in english and im the ones im looking at are in non us speaking country. Will the phone still be in english or no?
Anything to look for when buying used?

SMG935F (S7 Edge UAE) Can it be unlocked and used in the UK?

I know this is kind of a noob question but if I bought the SMG935F S7 Edge from the UAE and brought it back to the UK to be unlocked would it work normally with a UK based Sim card? or would there be some other things I'd have to do? Just making sure before I make a silly mistake and it causes a lot of issues but help is appreciated. Cheers.

I haven't bought it yet but I was thinking of since I'm heading over to Dubai soon and it was on sale on an online UAE shopping website so I thought it would be better getting it there and then bringing it back. Good to know it's not locked though or going to cause any issues. Thanks!

If It's SOUQ or a similar online site, just avoid it. Get it from Deira.

I want to purchase a phone from UAE(dubai) for use in India.Will it work in India?

The model number shown on the webpage of the retailer is SM-G935FTKDXSG. Will this phone work in India with respect to making calls and also LTE bands for 4G? How do I find out if its unlocked or not? Will VoLTE, Samsung pay work in India? Also, for warranty, is there some way to get Indian warranty?

This phone will work in India with respect to making calls and LTE connection. But VoLTE will not work. Not sure about Samsung Pay because I don't use it.
Also, nothing can be done about the warranty.
BTW I use an S7 edge bought from Dubai in India

Thanks for the reply! Where did you get the phone from, and for what price? Where would you recommend I but it from? Also, are you aware of any other features being different between this phone from dubai and the one in India? Have you faced any problems with the phone till now? And, does the phone have warranty inside UAE or not?
Thanks for the help!

I got the phone from the website souq.com for a pretty low price compared to the market price. Most shops in Dubai usually just increase the price for no reason.
My phone also came with one year warranty (Only in UAE).
My phone is almost 6 months old and I've had no problems at all with the phone. Really happy with it.
Yes you can use it with voLTE and SPay. Just flash Indian firmware on the firmware and you're good to go.

No, there is not a difference. I think it's around 1800 there and for that money it's so value for money. Nothing gets better than this phone at that price. Myself using a UAE phone. Get this model 935FD dual sim version.
And, don't get from souq. Not heard good opinion about them from people who live there.

I'm not in the UAE myself, so will have to ask someone to get it for me. Could you please tell me where to buy it from? souq.com shows price as 1900 AED for 128gb version. Where do I ask my friend to buy it from? And model number is 935FD or SM-G935FTKDXSG? Thanks man!

Hey check this phone out from souq.com:
https://uae.souq.com/ae-en/samsung-...-128gb-4gb-ram-4g-lte-black-pearl-12075981/i/
It comes with a one year official Samsung gulf warranty.
When I got my phone 6 months ago I paid 2000dhs. And I've had no problems at all with my device.

I bought my Nexus 5 from there and used it for 4 years without any issues. Then I bought my S7 edge from there 6 months ago and it has no issues.
My brother bought his LG G3 from there and used it for 4 years without any issues. He bought his LG G5 recently (around the same time I got my S7 edge) and he has no issues with his device whatsoever.
All these devices from souq.com
The site is good as long as you buy from a good dealer. Since anyone can setup a shop on the site, there might be some people trying to sell bad stuff. Just buy from the trusted dealers and you'll be fine.
I don't think Samsung issues international warranty. My home appliances are Samsung branded which doesn't have and one more using the firmware of UAE Volte will definitely not work unless you flash indian package on your mobile that's why I said no.

Hey are you 100% sure that we can flash Indian firmware on a Dubai model using ODIN?
I am on some custom ROM on my dubai phone but I really want to shift to the latest OREO INS Stock via ODIN. So that I have everything working smoothly including jio VOLTE. Please let me know if you have tried and tested this as I don't want to brick my phone
Also do I have to tick anything special on ODIN? I've been reading about people saying to tick re partition if coming from Dubai model?

Just make sure you buy the international variant applicable to any model of Samsung. Experience wise I usually buy my phone from Sohar, Oman and use it in Manila and didn't encounter any issues whatsoever.
