Hi Everyone, I've just got Moto X Pure and I have doubts regarding its origin.
Model name is XT1579 - I didn't found no information regarding it
and it has a sign 'G1F' to the right of fhe bottom speaker. just below the screen.
Do you have any doubts if this is developer edition or what?
It has 45Gb of available storage. So this is 64Gb version
What I received from support is
The phone is a Moto X pure - a model made exclusively for the USA market - it is actually a proptotype for a newer model to come.

The only info is from earlier this summer in Asia about some sort of prototype. I wonder if it was actually an earlier version of the ones that made it to the market?

Interesting. Where did you get the phone from?
Quite Interesting. Is your device still packed with SD808? Or SD810?
Its 808, I bought it on hands of some guy in Ukraine, he sais it was bought on US ebay
Hey Guys! As the title explains, I have recently bought a OnePlus 2 and wanted to know what model number will my phone be, so that it works OK in Argentina. Bought it from the official webpage and its already shipping. The email from OnePlus does not specify the model number ex: a2005. It does say though that the SKU # is 0101040204. If anyone can get the email from when you bought it tell me to what model corresponds. Just wanted to make sure it`s the right one! Thank you very much.

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.
sent from my phone S7 edge
Well the title says it, the only place i found is amazon and is more expensive that the ones being sold in Swappa, but they are gone right now, or what other phone do you think is good?
Why do you want the international version. I see you are coming from an Nexus 5. The international version does not have wireless charging if that is important.

Are there frequencies missing on the us997 that you need in Mexico?
Any of the US models should work fine in Mexico. Likely more so than a Euro model.
Well you could easily look that up couldn't you?
I suggest the topic starter do that himself.
The thread title says it all. Rather curious how I can get my hands on the Chinese version. I'm an American living in States, but those prices are ridiculously lower. The handset itself is supposed to be identical. Anyone know how I can order one?
Kind of crappy for OnePlus to charge America an extra $137. Fake tariff response.

Where did you purchase it from? With the reports of the screen issues in some phones im hesitant to order from another country in case OnePlus have an issues with warranties with phones from different regions

can you tell me exactly what you did to accomplish this bro? Like step-by-step. I'm assuming you went to oneplus.com/cn and used Google translate to navigate through? And it'll allow you to ship to United States?

The handset won't be identical
The Chinese version will be missing out on quite a few LTE/5G bands support in the states
4G Bands missing from China/India variant compared to US variant- B13, 25, 28, 29, 30, 66, 71

I have bought foreign phones before and have always found ways to enable/disable bands as needed.. The Snapdragon is very versatile. I'm hoping that installing the international oxygen OS rom will configure the bands. When I get the device I will thoroughly test every band and let you know how I get on.

I still have DFS tools installed on my desktop. The last time I went down this route I ended up enabling every band there was.. naughty but fun.

Haha your post cracks me up, mate. Did you ever get the band unlocked? I'm torn between waiting four more days until it's available in the US, or getting it off of Wonda.
Perhaps you can help me decide. When the phone arrived, did it look brand-spanking-new? Or were there fingerprints all over it? After all, they had to manually flash the international version of OOS I'm assuming? and did it come in original packaging? Or do they just take the components out and just stick it in a random box?

Careful the Chinese version is missing a few of the bands we use here. Think o2 is fine but the rest need band 32 I think for lte advance so you may get slower 4g speeds if on Three voda ee or their mvno's.
Maybe you can unlock bands. Wonda mobile a great trustworthy store
I'm in Canada and bought a pro 256gb from Alibaba for about 1240 CAD all in. Flashed with global ROM.
Very risky for general user but I've been buying equipment and components for my company from Alibaba for years now. I personally have never had an issue (with fraud anyways)

The seal on the box was broken to upgrade the firmware but the device was still wrapped in its protective film. I'm currently on band 20 VoLTE and the device is identifying itself as the international version. I suspect the relevant bands were enabled/disabled with the ROM change.

Wonda mobile.
Question for those using chinese version in USA.
How is it working?
I want the green 256GB version and dual Sim. So going down this route might be my best option.
Only problem I see is if I have a screen issue, will be harder to return.
What do you guys think? Thanks for the replies.
I have used Wonda Mobile and returned a mobile with no issues, you pay for shipping if you change your mind with a fee but if it's faulty they will reimburse you.
I have ordered many times from Wonda Mobile, can't rate them high enough. My 8 Pro was shipped on Monday and I had it by Saturday, 12/256gb £100 cheaper......:good:
