Hi there,
I currently have an LG G2 that I paid 330$C a week ago and I found someone with a Galaxy Note 3 like new that his aunt gave him and that he finds too big blah blah blah
Now, it's a very interesting offer because I'm missing so badly my S2's removable battery and extensible sd card, and also worth nothing that some people then trade Galaxy Note 3 for Galaxy S5
Now, I'm supposed to see the dude tomorrow to do the trade, but 2 things made me unsure if it's a legit unit or a clone. First, the IMEI he told me points to a Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000, on two sites I checked, the IMEI says it's a tablet but that it's compatible to the network. Is it possible that this is indeed a Note 3 with an IMEI recognized as a Note 10.1?
Secondly, the model number he told me it is is the SM-N9006, which is a China model from what I've read on the internet. WCDMA version. Now I think there's no problem for that to work with my network (Bell Canada), altho I'm really unsure for LTE compatibility. I didn't find reliable source for complete specification sheet on this model. Maybe someone here can give me light about the bands it uses and if it's really the SnapDragon 800 version?
Now since we're in Montreal here in Canada, I wonder why and how could he buy a China model in here, that's curious. And the IMEI pointing to other samsung device? What's up with this do you guys think? Is it a phone that is gonna give me troubles or could it be fine and the real deal??
How to check if it's a Clone? What about the IMEI? If I ask him to install the Antutu app before we meet and that I run it and it scores 30 000+ and that the specs in the app say it's the snapdragon 800 procesor and 3gb RAM, could I believe it's the real deal? Because clones won't show with the real deal's procesor and RAM? And if I try it with my micro SIM card and that it works and I can make call and use internet, am I safe to go home with this phone knowing it's the real specs and work on network?
Big thanks for anyone helping me out with this!
First there's none WCDMA network in China...
China developed their own 3G system called TD-SCDMA...
And super king copy phone can display real phone info...
IMEI doesn't lie. Maybe the IMEI is cloned/tampered....
There's an app here in XDA (forgot where, its in Note 3 threads) that can check if its fake or real...

Very simple.
Install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app, go to 'Refurbishment Check' menu.
Honestly it sounds sketchy. I buy and sell phones as well as repair them and checking the iemi is the best thing to do. If it comes up with something else like it did in your case I would run away from it.

Hello,
This is has been a very frustrating situation but here is where I am at currently. I use a carrier called "Simple Mobile" and they are an under carrier to TMobile. I want to own and use a Samsung Note 3 but can not get my SIM to work. That is the short introduction. I am providing some more information because this has been a long drawn out process but the bottom line is I want to continue using Simple Mobile AND use a Note 3.
Background: Back in late June 2014, I bought a used Note 3 N900V from ebay after I broke my Note 1. I love my Note 1 and it was the ATT branded model. I had the phone (Note 3)and it worked but had a very poor signal compared to using the same SIM card with my Note 1 (those threads are still available under my username). After many failed attempts to correct the situation and being educated about the phone model and so forth I found it in my best interest to return the phone for a refund and just repair my Note 1.
Currently: I repaired my Note 1 after the fiasco with the N900V model. However, my screen went purple recently and then wouldn't light up at all anymore. So I am where I was last time and looking to replace it. This time, armed with my knowledge from last time, I bought another Note 3 (model N900T this time), thinking it would be more compatible with my Simple Mobile (sub carried by T Mobile) as the N900T is a T-Mobile friendly phone. NOTE: I bought the phone used and through a mistake of the seller, what I have is actually a N900W8. The seller had replaced the screen and did a motherboard swap. The result is a phone with markings that say N900T but after a boot up provides software descriptions showing N900W8.
Why do I want to use Simple Mobile so bad? : Simple mobile charges me 40.00 + tax for Unlimited Data, Calls and Texts domestically + limited international texting to certain countries. For me, that is a great deal and I dont have to do a contract or pay extortionate fees to other providers. Yes, I am a cheap Bas*&^d as evidenced by me buying used phones to save a few hundred $$$'s here and there.
Dilemma: In my bid to purchase a Note 3 that works I looked at the Simple Mobile site. They do indeed sell a new model N900T, Link here: <http://www.mysimplephones.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-III-Simple-Mobile.html> HOWEVER, when you look at another page for compatible phones you will find that the N900T is not even a compatible model for Simple Mobile's 4G LTE service. YOU WILL HOWEVER FIND that there are two models of Note 3 that WILL work. The N900W8 (Canadian Model) and the N900A (ATT). This link shows those compatible 4G LTE phones: <http://simplemobileinfoblast.com/4glte/phones.php>
Interesting note: While I do actually have a 4G LTE compatible phone technically, since the phones software shows it is a N900W8 despite the shell being embossed N900T, it will not work AT ALL on my carrier. All attempts result in "NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK" messages. My research thus far seems to indicate that the N900W8 Models come unlocked as new so I do not feel that my phone is locked.
Conclusion: My Note 1 is broken and I don't want to repair it so I will sell it as is elsewhere. I have a Note 3 N900W8 that will not work that I am going to return to the seller since it is not even the right model to begin with. It should be noted that the screen on the N900W8 WAS replaced but not very well and there are some annoying defects on the underside of the screen as a result. So after all of this expostition, Can anyone please tell me what model of Note 3 to get that will work with my simple mobile SIM?
It is my sincere hope that someone has gone through this same situation and can help guide me a bit.
Thank you

OK, so the Note N9005 is the same as the T and w8 models except for the radio differences. From the sounds of it the N3 you pruchased may have been blocked as it's carrying the not registered on network error (which is the common one for this) however. it's possible it's locked down but my understanding is the w8 is quite unrestricted.
IN regards to what model you should/need to use, if your carrier is under the T-Mo umbrella/piggy backs of their network then you need the N900T which is T-Mo's device. - But you may wanna ring T-Mo and ask to be 100% positive.
EDIT You wanna avoid the N900A (ATT) unless you're 100% sure you can get LTE with your provider, there's been a few people who have bough the A model and haven't been able to use it due to it being for ATT only (again, radio issues.)
After re-reading, I think the N900T is the one for sure (especially as Simple sell it (doubt they'll sell a device that isn't LTE compatible?), and I would ring Simple and T-Mo for 100% clarification as obviously, dropping a few hundred $$ on a phone which may not work isn't nice.

Thank you for reading and replying...
Im quite torn but what you say makes plenty of sense.
I am under the same thought process as yours thinking that the N900T version they sell in their own shop is the model to get.... but then I read about the compatible devices with "4G LTE" and dont even see it, but instead see the N900W8 and N900A models instead. I had the N900V model Note 3 before and it "worked" on my network but the coverage and signal strength suffered greatly and displayed +H most of the time. So the N900V at least worked with my SIM vs the N900W8 not even using the network (it does show ATT and Simple Mobile networks under the network settings but cant register on either one).
I know they are different phones completely but the ATT branded Note 1 gave me no problems at all with my Simple SIM. My wife has the same model Note 1 as me and her phone actually shows 4G LTE next to the bars whereas mine only shows 4G. I called and spoke to CS a few months ago to figure out the disparity and it would seem that since I bought her SIM card more recently that mine (hers 2014 vs mine 2011) that the SIM itself makes the network 4G LTE more friendly somehow. So with that in mind I have ordered a new micro SIM from Simple thinking that it might solve some issues. The only reason I never ordered a new SIM sooner is because I wasnt really worried about the 4G LTE vs 4G problem as my UL/DL speeds were more than adequate. Hence, I am seriously thinking of trying out the N900A model.
I guess the easiest answer is that I think the N900T model "would work" but the compatible model page shows the other 2 models and not the N900T with regards to 4G LTE coverage and NOT general signal coverage.
I am going to ring T mobile and see if this model is locked down, thanks for that, good advice.
In regards to me being 100% sure about the ATT model being LTE compatible, I am thinking it would be possible (not 100% though) with regards to my wife's N1 and newer SIM (hers is also a branded ATT N1 like my broken ATT N1. with an older SIM).
Any thoughts? Thanks again...
The Note 3, changed a lot in regards to the hardware and radios used. Samsung and the carriers in their infinite wisdom trying to lock people down via either region lock, sim lock and boot loader lock downs.
It is possible that the A model will work, it could be that Simple has a deal with T-Mo and ATT in which it can use both carriers towers for H+ and LTE.
See what T-Mo say, and even give ATT a ring also, no harm in asking them direct.
Also as you've stated the sim may also have something to do with picking up LTE straight of the bat.
Ring T-Mo/ATT see what they say, then that way you know which way to go and at least doing it that way you have the comfort in knowing that the provider themselves have assured you what will and won't work.

I'm looking up the contact numbers for T Mobile now and will probably try to look at what ATT has to say/can do.
Simple Mobile, bless their hearts, to keep things so cheap use a calling center in the Philippines and have been of very little help to me trying to figure this out.
I'll keep this thread updated but I'm still torn between the N900V and N900A, only leaning towards the N900A because of the link I shared earlier with regards to 4G LTE compatibility. :/
Thanks again Radicalisto.
Hope you get it sorted, let me know the outcome I'm quite curious now myself. Good luck!

So I have finally reached a solution.
After all of the hassle and trial and error, I was able to get a Note 3 to work with 4G LTE by using a Note 3 model N900A and an updated Simple Mobile Sim card.
It seemed a little counter intuitive to use an ATT branded phone versus a T Mobile branded phone knowing that Simple is undercarried by T mobile but that is just what it took.
It should be known that I did not try and use my "old" SIM from Simple but ordered a new one and had my number transferred to the new SIM before the phone arrived. The rational behind purchasing a new SIM was based on the experience of my wife and I using our Note 1(s). Both of our Note 1(s) were ATT branded (i717). Though I bought her Simple SIM about 2 years after my own. The result was my phone only showed 4G while hers would should 4G LTE. Strange being they are both the same model phone with the same carrier but that was the fix: updated SIMs, whether it was embedded software or something else.
So for now, I can close this little chapter and enjoy my Note 3.
If anyone else is reading this, please feel free to message me and I will be happy to share anything I may have forgotten to share here.
Thanks to everyone who helped as well, I know I have a few threads on XDA looking for solutions. :/

Good stuff, glad you got it sorted
Hello All
Just bought a couple weeks before a refurbished verizon note 3, and i find this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
I try to add LTE band 7 to my note (im from chile, lte band 7) , with change value to 4168 (original value 4104, band 4 +band 13) and after reboot the phone the value back to 4104. The other nvitem 06829 holds the value.
So read and check this from the author of the post
One surprising finding was that people with older phones were having better results. Why? It seems that Qualcomm quietly added some anti-tamper code into recent Android versions to keep us from doing this. It's almost like they read our forum and know what we're trying to mod. But they wouldn't spy on us like that, would they?

So my question here if anybody have try to do this guide and the result.?
Im on stock rom, with NC4.
Thanks
I dont think that there is an antenna path or amplifiers for that band. The chipset may support it, but that doesn't mean that the radio hardware is present.
I would do some research and try to verify first.
I haven't been able to find out much about this version even though I have it. Seems like the hardware is slightly different than the other ZenFone 3 models. Front camera, proximity sensor, headphone jack, mic ,etc... are in different places. Leftovers from the ZenFone 2 stuffed in a new shell? Will root methods and roms translate from the other versions?

ASUS has no information available for this model. I bought mine from Newegg and it is listed as ZC551KL according to their information, but that isn't what I received.
It's a mystery phone.
I looked at the box again and it has both numbers listed. But nowhere in the os does it list ZC551KL.

The model number seems to be ZC551KL(Zenfone 3 Laser's global model number), with Z01BDC being the US Region model code. The difference is only in RAM size - 2GB instead of 4GB as the rest of the world seems to be getting with their Laser's. I could be wrong, but it makes the most sense. Plus, it keeps up with ASUS's odd double-model nomenclature from the old Zenfone 2 devices, which were all Z00_ models alongside the longer name strings.

Hope you are right about US version called Z01BDC, I was starting to distrust amazon cause, according to the Bulgarian Asus website (The only asus site where I found reasonably detailed specs of this ZC551ml) the US version is the only one that comes with LTE band 4 aws, which is the only band my local carriers do support for LTE network but, using the phone right now I do not get any LTE signal at all, so I thought maybe amazon sold me an international version by mistake...
Does anybody have confirmed that this supposed US version (Z01BDC) works with LTE band 4 frequency? I've asked to Asus by mail but it seems a pretty complicated question to them... who are actually the phone makers...

I can confirm that the phone works for AT&T's 4G(not sure if LTE) where I get roughly 30Mbps download on my current AT&T-using provider, with it maxing at 40Mbps down/17mbps up. In addition, the FCC listing of the Zenfone 3 Laser is specifically for the Z01BDC model.

Thanks for the confirmation. As regards mine device couldn't get it to work with LTE at all unluckily.
One curious thing is that when i did try reflashing through adb-sideload to see whether that manage to solve the problem, phone was OTA updated accidentally, couldn't get it to work; in fact the only way i could reflash it was by SD card update, I thought about flashing from fastboot but it doesn't seem quite simple as motorola to me. (lack of knowledge about droidboot, boot, asus system partitions, and so on..)
HELP

How come there is no dedicated forum for Zenfone 3 Laser?
Can we request the admin to create a forum?
oh my god don't get the 2GB Laser. It's awful. ASUS' ZenUI takes up 1.5GB of the 2GB in the phone. And because of Android's RAM management, you can barely open two apps at once if you're lucky. I returned it real fast and got myself the 4GB Zenfone 3 instead.

You're over exaggerating. It's pretty fast and fluid in my case. I have disabled all Asus apps that I can (I think there only a couple that you can't disable) and I am using Nova Launcher. It's very smooth. The fingerprint sensor is also lightning fast

Hey guys
I used to have oneplus 6t loved it other than the glitches they can't figure out how to fix. I bought a note 9 instead. My question is i use metropcs and noticed I used to run around 25mbps at my desk with my oneplus now I run around 12mbps with my note 9. The note 9 is the us version fully unlocked. I'm wondering if this is possible that one phone could have faster lte even though the bands are the same?
I think differences are supported Carrier Aggregation combinations. These are not public information from devices specs but i have many devices listed in cacombos.com.
I just only have global and China model of OnePlus 6T combos https://cacombos.com/search?key=OnePlus+6T so i need modem log from your device to list combos supported in US model. Here is instruction how you can get modem log https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...droid-phone/#OnePlus,_Oppo_and_RealMe_devices and you can share logs here: https://cacombos.com/contribute
I have Note 9 supported combos here: https://cacombos.com/device?model=SM-N960U .
