Hi everyone,
I've noticed many sites including eBay selling Samsung Omnia i900 phones for really low prices...some at about $100 per phone. I find it very difficult to believe that these phones could be sold that low. Are they genuine Samsung phones or are they cheap Chinese clones? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Omnia on eBay
Could you give a few examples?
You might want to look at the seller's rating, etc.
Yes that would help.
Since I can't post links please see item # 290444362182 on ebay.
There is a link to an auction I noticed. The seller has an incredible amount of feedback. I tried sending emails to previous winners of this auction but have had no luck with responses. I'm worried about getting a cheap Chinese clone. Would you know how to check before hand if the phone is real? Sure the auction images and specs are exactly those of Samsung but we can't know for certain until we have the actual phone. Is there a serial number on the phone (usually underneath the battery) that the seller can give me before I purchase?
Thanks

Thanks for the offer but I will most likely be using an iPhone someone is getting rid of. This way I feel safe about where the product is coming from and I really won't be paying much at all for it.
I'm still curious about the Samsung on eBay. I can't believe they are real genuine phones. I'd love to see a serial number or something to get an idea. If they are real I can probably find a bunch of people interested in buying them from me at a great profit. I just don't want to rip anyone off with sh%tty Chinese clones
hello everyone
i recently decided to buy the galaxy note 3 but now i am having to make a decision between the two variants.
i have to options at the moment:
option 1: buy the note 3 (octa-core) from my country which will cost me about 900$
option 2: buy the note 3 (snapdragon800) from another country which will cost about 800$ including the shipping costs, and of course, there will be no warranty for this option and it might be region locked.
so the i have some questions which will hopefully make the decision easier.
Q1: which one is faster and doesn't lag?
Q2: which one will have better development support?
Q3: which one will be easier to be modded? knowing that knox is on the way of doing so.
sorry for the long post.
thanks in advance

thank you for your reply, I've already watched the video but there was nothing mentioned about the lag.
thank you anyway, i guess that i am going with the snapdragon one as i was exploring the android dev section of the forum and found that the sd have more support.
i have 3g and it doesn't lag and i am sure 4g doesn't lag too.
imo 4g will have better development support
better development support means better modding
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
Hey guys, a buddy of mine bought a Rose Gold Note 3 while he was in Korea and now is selling it. I am thinking about buying it off of him even though it is not compatible with LTE here in Canada.
My main concern though is if the phone can be rooted and if there is a variety of Roms that can be put on it. I base my buying decision on this with every phone I get.
Is this phone considered different to the development community than say an American Note 3? Will this cause a seperation in the Rom development?
The phone runs a Snapdragon 800 and not the Exynos.
Thanks a ton guys!
ps. Would you get this phone over the M8?
What is the model of the phone? For example the international version is called SM-N9005, please answer this so we can help you out

Take a look here if you want it rooted/custom ROM'd/modded. This is the main thread for Korean Note 3s. I'm pretty sure if he didn't update it often you can still use towelroot.

I wouldn't even get a Note 3 at this point dude. Wait for the new Nexus or Note 4....
