T-Mobile Galaxy S2 (SGH-T989) device, how do i know... - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yeah, like the topic says... How do I know if my sgs2 is a T-Mobile Galaxy S2 (SGH-T989) device?
mine is bought in Finland (Europe)

Well you'd probably only get the SGS-T989 in the USA because of it's AWS frequencies. T-Mobile in Europe uses same frequencies as everyone else so it would be a GT-i9100. You can always check under the battery instead of asking too, it say it right there what it is.

ah, thank you! I didn´t know where to look, so i thought it was better to ask.
Under the battery on the phone, it says: Model: GT-I9100 and SSN: -I9100GSMH
So that means it it a T-Mobile Galaxy S2 (SGH-T989) device? =)

Galaxy SGS i9100 International version .

You can also go to

You don't know what you have? Jeez!
Whatever model number it says, that's what it is.

Umm, No that means you have a GT-i9100. If you had a SGS-T989 it would say that which is a T-Mobile USA Galaxy S2 device, you have a International (original) Galaxy S2 device. The T-Mobile (USA) one as you wrote is SGH-T989. AT&T USA is SGH-I777. There's also a Sprint one as well.

[Q] Korean's Galaxy S2

Hi, i hv a question. If i buy the galaxy s2 from korea, will it work in Canada?
Whatever you do, do not buy a Korean SGSII. The Korean SGSII is highly localized with a different type of SMS that Canada uses right now. It's going to be a real pain in the butt trying to get it to work in Canada which is why I suggest getting an international version or a US version when it comes out.

Korean galaxy model support frequncies are follow.
UMTS single 2100
GSM 900/1800/1900
so, if your carrier frequencies are UMTS 850/1900 , you can't use it.
(i heard that some of carrier support UMTS 850/1900)
and Our korea SKT model using their own SMS(SK-MMS).
(KT model support OMA-MMS)
Finally, i can NOT recommend you are using to our korean galaxy using in canada.
And in Italy? would it be usable in Italy?
Thank you guys

What's your phones carrier? Three(hutchison)?
I think your carrier support umts 2100, you will use korean gs2 use in italy.
And i recommend that shw-m250k(korean kt carrier model).

Just to hijack the thread, does anyone have a source on a compiled SHW-250S/SHW-250K firmware so I can mess around with it and reflash it back just in case I need to send it back in for warranty?
If not i'll just have to do it myself from the open source release, hmm

System dump I guess? And repackage them Odin flashable (.tar)
I have not tried yet but probably work.
I would do that if I wasn't a silly and flashed before dumping the original firmware. Carrier specific settings I can get easily enough from talking to a service rep, but they'll probably raise eyebrows at the odd firmware without any of their branding and the giant yellow caution sign, lol
No big deal atm, i'm still fooling around.
Quick question... does anyone know if the ringtones and notifications and other media are available from the Korean SGS2?
I dont want the international version
Just the Korean version.. Thank you
Did I ask in the wrong forum/thread?
Anyone knows where or how to get a Korean S2. I wanna use it when I'm in Singapore
Sorry to bump an old thread but.

Korean versions support NFC and they have an antenna. The device in the link is a generic SII, surely not a korean version.
dont buy from korea
just buy from canada made in korea device
same as me but different countries
hey guys thanks for that
To be honest - i am buying through a company in New Zealand which drop ships directly from Hong Kong. So I dont really know what version that will be. Will that be the korea or international version?
Any ideas ?
sorry for bumping a old thread. Any idea if I can flash a korea galaxy S2 with a stock international version Android firmware? or any custom ROM I can flash with? And how do I do it? I got mine when I was posted in Korea to work, now I am back to my country, the 80 character limit for sms is wasting a lot of my money. Any advice? thanks

SGH-I717 vs SGH-I717R : What's the difference?

Does R mean 4G LTE?
Mine only says I717, does that mean it's not 4G LTE capable?
If not, I might as well just return it and get the R version.
Or am I totally wrong?
Google/XDA search didn't provide any information about this.
Thanks
BTW, I have AT&T SGH I717

I'm pretty sure that the hardware is the same for all models, just the firmware is slightly different, so they should all be LTE capable, but I can't confirm that for sure.

Those however, run the Exinos chipset, and not the Qualcomm, and only support HSPA+ and not LTE. The chipset is faster, and the data is slower.

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG! The Rogers internals are different. Uses Qualcomm, the others don't. 1.5 Ghz processor compared to 1.4. The Rogers Note -r is a entirely different beast.

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! The ATT, Telus, Bell, and Telus versions have exactly the same internals. All I717 versions are the same except for firmware and cosmetic branding. All support LTE.
The N7000 and I9220 are physically different on the inside and the outside from the I717 Note version. They have a physical home button and run an entirelly different chipset.

I've read somewhere that AT&T version i717 came first, and then 'lettered' versions for Canada appeared. So they are slightly newer and better revision, but I have no idea to what extent.

If I am right, the i9100 is the one you have and the most popular I guess, with its features; i9100p model is the same as yours but has NFC in the battery (near field communication) so if you flash a rom which is built for i9100 model and you have the i9100p you will lose the nfc feature (that you can take back with nfc enabler at this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1822447 ); the i9100g instead, has a different cpu compared to the other two models, and roms too are different (infact there is a specific place in the forum for threads which are about this model).
So, i9100 and i9100p are similar, except for the nfc function of the P version while they are both different from i9100g because of the cpu.
Roms for i9100 works for i9100p (but you will lose nfc function) and don't work on i9100G. Roms for i9100G don't work on the other two models, i guess.
Forgive my english
And how about I9100M?

I have just read on Wikipedia (can't link because of the low number of posts..) and BTW.. There are a looooooot of variants of i9100 international model!!
Anyway..
It seems that variants exist because of the country or the carrier (except for i9100p and i9100g as I have wrote it before); i9100m is for Bell's Samsung Galaxy S2 models from Canada and Wikipedia "say": "Model GT-I9100M Samsung Galaxy S II is identical to the international version except that its model number is I9100M". So, as you can read on the website, it's called M only to distinguish it because it's Canadian and from Bell carrier.
I hope it is right
As I said.....google had the answer to this Q, why making a thread about it?

You are right Gastonw, you just have to look for it in Google.. But if someone ask, i'll answer
Too many in Italy don't know the difference between varations of this model (9100/g/p) and don't know that by flashing a rom on their 9100p they will lose the nfc function that they can take back..
So.. Just to share knowledge

note II i1317m Am I in the correct side forum?

I'm trying to make sure if my variant of the note II is this one. I live in Puerto Rico and the company called Claro bought Verizon. so to my understanding this would be the verizon version of the phone.... I'm a noob to the note II and this company so I'm trying to make sure before I attempt to flash anything. so yeah that's basically it am I in the correct place? Under model it says I1317m I am currently on 4.1.2
No Verizons' version is the i605

It depends on the rom you have. I have an at&t rom running on my phone so it says different I605 although i'm on verizon.. Depends on the rom you are running and what you like.
If you bought it through Verizon it's the I605 if it was purchased through another company it'll be their model number

You answered your own question. You have the i317M. Based on this chart, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Note_II#Variants, your model would be most similar to the ATT version.

The only difference between the I9100 & I9100T is a slight difference in radio output, otherwise these phones are exactly the same.
To determine which phone you have, check the sticker on the phone chassis under the battery. Unless the phone is counterfeit, what's on the sticker will be accurate.

Thanks for clarify me
T version is used in Australia mostly.
Sent from the little guy
That's right. Several Australian telcos sold it. It was sold in Israel, Thailand, NZ. Maybe a few other countries. Mostly by telcos who use 850MHz spectrum for some of their network. It wasn't, however, sold by AT&T. AT&T sold the I777, I727 & I927. No US telco sold the I9100/I9100T.
