For the N910C, works fine with my three sim, they only difference is N910C is exynos with a wolfson dac the N910F being snapdragon 805.
Apart from that they should be the same.
The phone comes sim free and unlocked, so put in whatever micro sim you have.
Sure is unlocked? I will use micro sim of no European countries

It sure is unlocked.... all they mean is that every galaxy note is region locked... this means that the first sim you HAVE to put in it should be one from a European carrier. I don't know carriers from the rest of Europe, but in the UK that means just put ANY sim in from Three, O2, EE, Vodafone, Orange or T-mobile
I received my 910-C from handtec today, popped my three sim in and all is well. Since then, its also had a visit from an EE, and O2 sim, all working just fine

Well... If you ask handtec, im sure they would open one for you and activate it with a uk sim... It will then ne able to be used where ever you are, with a sim of your choice

Has anyone actually seen a exynos version against a snapdragon. Can the better sound and camera sensor in the exynos really be identified, can any difference in speed be seen either?
Hello. Is it any chance to unlock region locked device? I mean any other chances except 5 minutes on calls with regional SIM. I want to buy SGS 7 EDGE in the UK, but I am living in another country. Thank you! I mean this: http://www.androidheadlines.com/2016/03/galaxy-s7-galaxy-s7-edge-region-locked-in-europe.html
Already found information. Many sites and ebay offered it for a little price. No need to answer.
I bought an s7 edge from germany, then I learn about that regional sim lock. I however was so lucky to have an aunt who has a sim card that can work both in germany and here, she call someone in germany for 5 mins and it worked. So if you know someone from where the device loced to, you may be able to find a sim card that can work for your country too.
In a few days im leaving for Las Vegas, and will be there for a week... My phone is unlocked, but i know that there is some region lockdown thingy...
So... will i be able to use US sim card?
Thanks in advance guys!

About 99% of all the users here in this international S7 Edge forum have
a G935F and it will work perfectly everywhere and in any region even in
the greater Las Vegas region if you insert any activated sim card. LOL
Have a great day!
Mine was bought from Netherlands same version as yours. In order to work internationally, the only condition is to have already made calls of at least 5 minutes.
Yours should work without any problem
5 mins minimum calls and should keep the Sim atleast for a week (if dual sim model, then should keep the Sim in slot 1 for a week)
Frequency wise, it's all OK S7 supports all frequencies.

I want to import the European variant of a Samsung phone to the USA (the price without VAT and no duties make it tempting). However Samsung is known to have region locking where one has to place a five minute call with a region's SIM card to fully unlock it for global use.
If I have a European SIM card (the UK for example) and I'm roaming in the USA with it can I make a 5 minute phone call while roaming overseas with the European SIM card to fully unlock it?
Yes I think that's how it works

So even if I'm roaming internationally a European SIM card would allow it to be unlocked? I've been reading online that you also have to connect to a European mobile network/carrier.

I can't say it for sure : I've never done this
Check on these online reading you are talking about or on XDA, someone must already have tried this
At worst you can buy a european S7 edge already used, at least you'll be sure that it is fully unlocked ^^
Hi Guys,
Im on holidays in Asia and I found a Samsung dealer with stock of the Galaxy Note FE black onyx, international version (not the Korean), dual SIM (new).
Do you think it's worth it to buy them? I'm tempted to buy one and maybe sell one on eBay.
How much are they currently selling at? I just found some second hand ones on eBay.
Thanks!
Best regards

So I'm currently using the international note fe. I live in Malaysia so that's why it's the international variant.
I noticed when unboxing that it has a warning saying that this note fe can only be used with an sea sim card only.
There was a regional lock guide in it saying that this note fe is a sea model and only should be used with sea sim cards.
It also stated that to use sim cards from other regions, a cumulative call over 5 mins must 1st be made with a sea sim card. If a sim card from other regions is used for activation, the phone may not work.
Hi!
I guess yours is from a Malaysian carrier, the ones I saw here are being sold directly by Samsung, therefore there are no such limitations.

Hi,
I bought it, it works flawless with my European SIM card.
There was no card included mentioning any restrictions.
The current price here is around 500usd.

If I may ask...does Samsung Pay work with your European SIM card...or is it the same as the Korean versions...i.e. can't use Samsung Pay without a Korean SIM?

Which exact model number do you have? (S, K, L , F, F-DS)
If it's the F or F-DS, no SIM Unlocking is required.
If it's one of the Korean variants (S, K. L), it might be SIM locked, if the phone was purchased on contract & still has an outstanding balance.
The only other scenarios I can think of is that your service provider is selective in which phones it allows on their network, or, the phone just isn't compatible with your service provider.
If the phone is indeed SIM Locked, there's sites on the web that provide unlocking for a fee.If you end up having to go this route, contact the provider to make sure that they can indeed unlock your particular phone.

No, just the single SIM with SD Card slot.
I've had both the "S" & "K" versions (both single SIM), I'd imagine the "L" version is single SIM as well.

Battery life
@KOLIOSIS
Hi, I just bought N935F DS and as you already have this model for some time can you tell me how long is battery lasting for you?
Are you using dual sim?

Hi, I get an average of 6 hours SOT and 24+ hours battery.
The battery is much better than I expected.

Battery life is fine,I can make it through a workday or weekend day w/no problem.
I don't have any real hard data,I haven't bothered for the last few years to pay attention,most phones do fine any more.
FWIW,here's some info on my set-up:
1) Four G-Mail accounts,all syncing all day.
2) Bluetooth: Samsung Gear S2 & I use a B/T headset (streaming Google Play Music) for 30-60 minutes per day.
3) I don't do social media,if you do,use the browser of choice instead.......I hear most (facebook) social media disease apps kill battery life. If the mentioned app(s) do OK for you,carry on.
4) Screen on-time varies,probably about 3hrs/day tops,you could easily get another 2-3 hrs before you see a low battery warning.
5) As for SIM usage,it seems to have little effect whether I use one or two.
With this typical usage,I still have anywhere between 30%-50% battery left after about 12 hrs total on-time.
If you have less,check your WI-FI/data connectivity & check your social media apps (if you use 'em) for battery usage.
I have the dual sim model too but I'm using a single sim and an sd card. I dont do facebook as well but will do instagram occasionally. morning full charge usually will end up around 30+ percent with around 6 hours of screen on time with whatsapp, wechat and instagram.
Samsung Galaxy Note FE SM-N935F SIM locked
Hello guys, i recenctly bought a Note FE and it is not working in my country. It says SIM Network pin blocked. Enter SIM network PUK. Please i need help
Its not your phone, it is the sim card locked probably because wrong pin was entered 3 times and now you need PUK code to unlock. If u still have the original plastic frame for your sim or paperwork it should contain the pin and puk codes otherwise u need to contact your telco
Unlocked Phone
Guys is there a website or a software that you insert the IMEI number and it does provide you with the code that the phone requires when you insert an overseas SIM in it.
This is the phrase that you might probably see when you insert a SIM card in a locked phone "SIM network unlock PIN" then you should enter 8 digit numbers. Did anyone manage to get such an issue solved?
The story similar to the other people, the phone was purchased from the Middle East, but it didn't work overseas, and the message above kept appearing when a SIM card is installed.
Steps of the solution:
Called the network provider, they said they can't do anything
Contacted Samsung overseas, they said you gotta contact Samsung in the place the phone was purchased.
Contacted Samsung in the place the phone was purchased, they haven't replied yet.
So if you have solved such an issue, please do share the solution with us.
Thanks,
Medo
