Hi.
I have a problem with my Note. I bought the Korean version of the phone (at leats it should be) but the specifications of the phone are driving me crazy lol
As I said, when I bought it, it should be the Korean version, however the rom running on it is from AT&T (AT&T splash screen, AT&T wifi hotspots in the settings, AT&T phone update and so on). The phone is rooted. When I run a device info app, it’s a mess:
Android version: 2.3.6
Release Codename: REL
CPU ABI: armeabi-v7a
CPU ABI2: armeabi
Hardware: SHV-E160L
Board: MSM8660_SURF
Device: SGH-I717
Display: GINGERBREAD.Jhonms.557419
Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-i717
Product: SGH-I9220
Even though I don’t understand some of this info, there are 3 things that intrigue me. The CPU, I guess it’s from the Korean version, since it seems the AT&T devices have a QUALCOMM processor. But the weirdest part for is the Hardware (SHV-E160L) and the Device and Model (SGH-I717) information. Shouldn’t that be the same in all the information? So my phone is it the AT&T model or the Korean model? The guy who sold it to me told me it was the Korean model but they change something in the ROM to support Chinese (I live in China), and the Korean ROM doesn’t support Chinese. However, I want to put the original Korean ROM because it has the NFC already working, while in the AT&T build I have in my phone, it’s not activated yet. So, anyway can anyone tell me which model I have?
And, if it's the Korean model, how did he put the AT&T ROM on it? I thought you couldn't mess the S7000, SI717, etc model roms?!
Thanks in advance.
This is all correct for an i717 at&t model.
hi,
i am also living in china and i guess i have the same device with yours.
i checked some web sites and they said at&t model doesn't have any physical home button.
but mine has it and the korean model (E160L) has it, too.
so i guess the hardware is from korea but the rom is not the original one.
does your device has '掌界网www_dot_wpcnn_dot_com' in Build number?
if so, it must be the same as mine.
i am thinking whether i can rewrite E160L original rom by modifying some information in build.prop. but i haven't succeeded in doing it because i don't know correct data in E160L's build.prop. (i am thinking samsung kies can update the rom to E160L's one if i fake it to E160L)
this device supports LTE though. i don't know if it's enabled on this device or not.
*#2263# doesn't the menu for it.
and i tried to install CMW (for SGH-I717) by odin3 today. flashing it to the device was ok. but the device cannot get in recovery mode....(infinite loop of booting)
anyway, this rom sucks.

Was anyone able to flash CWM on this? I am also having a loopy-recovery.
AFAIK... CMW = for ENGLISH, FRENCH and SPANISH etc ...languages.... and not set for 128bit character languges (am not sure iof right-correct tech word for chinese kange etc sorry to lazy to look that word up!)
the CMW = for 'western languages' only
Smart for S'sung = KOREAN MODELS = as non western languages .....
((( that they designagted that as "INTERNATIONAL MODEL" phones different MODEL NUMBER to ATT/Rodgers etc )))
There is a thread from one OP = about BOUNTY for making "korean models' able to do CMW + ATT/Roders ROMS etc ,,,,, you can search for there for my comments ..
Cheers , hope this helps towards some explinations of CMW/Drivers etc between two models of NOTE

If I may have your attention within this Thread, the report system is not for ROM issues .
The report system is for Forum Rule violations, so please do not use the reporting system to identify your ROM/Rooting and or any issues regarding this manner.
Please understand that issues if they can be will be addressed, within the thread. Continue reporting that regarding your ROM issues, will result in abuse of the reporting system.
Thank you.

few days ago i was trying to flash latest resurrection aokp rom ( Jelly bean ) for galaxy s2 i9100
however i got a black screen in middle ( 50%) and then my s2 could not be turned on
i thought it might be soft bricked so i tried all the button combinations and then usb jig but nothing worked
then i took it to a repair guy and tried to get jtag service
but the jtag service also did not worked and the repairing guy told me that the jtag process is hanging in between and flash ic ( emmc ic ) of my samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100 is damaged and i need to get it changed, else there is no solution
i again tried jtag from few other repairing experts .. but all told me the same.
I am a student and i cannot afford to loose my expensive $$$ galaxy s2 which i bought by saving my pocket money
so can anyone help and tell me that from where i can get the flash ic ( emmc ic ) for my samsung galaxy s2 i1900 ? .. so that i can get the old ic (integrated circuit) repaired with new ic by doing hot soldering and then get the jtag service to bring my galaxy s2 back to life ?
i will be very thankful for help and support.
Thank you in advance
*GOD BLESS U ALL*

can some1 help me with this phone its galaxy s2 wimax au ISW11SC already rooted...can you help me guys to install a rom on this phone....my firmware is ICS 4.0.4
Model number from the sticker on the phone chassis under the battery ? I don't recognise what you've written there & I'd be surprised if many people here would as well. Be prepared to get not very much help give you seem to have a rather obscure variant that few people here have seen.
helo everybody!
Yesterday I traded my old BlackBerry z10 for a Galaxy S3. I've been looking for ways to flash, root and all that and found that some S3 have a bug that causes sudden death. I downloaded that app and indeed it says my device is in risk and I searched for a solution but I'm not sure yet what to do.
My phone is a 16GB Samsung Galaxy i9300 from T-Mobile. Its running Android 4.3 (comp. number JSS15J.I9300XXUGOC1) (eMMC Chip Type VTU00M, date 06/2012, FwRev: 0xf1)
The phone is rooted and unlocked
thanks

Im I losing hope of fixing my phone??
thanks..
Hoping for your help... asap..:crying::crying::crying::crying:
