Hi guys,
I got in hands a Samsung SCH-I939D in China (where I live). Of course the Android version in it is a chinese Android with all kind of app sI don't want, no market, no google apps ect...
I looked on the forum for some info about this phone but the search engine didn't give me any relevant result.
Main question : Is it possible to find any custom Rom or at least non chinese rom possible to install on this phone?
Second question : Has anyone tried to hack this phone and is it possible to install google apps, root the phone or anything?
I have some intermediate knowledge about android (rooted, installed custom roms, unlocked... several android phones)
Thanks.
help for galaxy S3 duos SCH I939D
I have samsung galaxy S3 duos (SCH I939D) , It is not launched in India. samsung has made it for China & Russia. Mine is fron China. The problen with the phone is that PLAY STORE is not running and phone is not receiving 3G network. And even there is not any option to change network mode to WCDMA. Can rooting or flashing solve my problem ?

Hey guys,
Longtime lurker, first time poster and all of that.
I am in possession of a brand new Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE (Korean model SHV-E120S).
I would love to help get custom ROMs and other things onto this device, and I'd be happy to dump my phone or provide system images... if I knew how to get them!
It seems Samsung does their mounts a little custom, as the ROM dumpers I've found don't work (missing a /proc/mtd). Can anyone point me towards how to get a dump of the .img or other files someone much smarter than I needs to get development off the ground? Even if devs don't pick it up, I'd like to get a dump of the files anyway for my own tinkering.
Appreciate any replies
hi brother l have the same device and l want the full firmware .I found the room but not the full firmware I need the PDA and pit files .go to the first section (galaxy s2 general) then go to (Korean galaxy s2 ....) on page 54 and 58 you find 3 links for the room
Yes, I saw that ROM posted before, though the tar appears broken.
What I am looking for is a tool or a guide for dumping the ROM myself. I have rooted the device (Zergrush v3) but not much else.

Hi.
I have the shv-120s and I also want a full firmware.
Love the phone. But I want swedish meny.
I think there's only English, Korean and a [custom?] Chinese ROM for the Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SHV-E120S) and LTE (SHV-E110L) phones.
If you want to update your firmware, try Samsung Kies software:
Code:
samsung.com/ca/support/mobilesoftwaremanual/mobilesoftwaremanual.do?page=MOBILE.SOFTWARE.MANUAL
So have any of you been able to use this phone in America? Are you using a custom or stock ROM? Korean or Chinese? When I try to use the phone here in Canada w/ Rogers or Fido, it won't connect to any HSPA/3G networks. Can anybody can help?

I am actually in Korea for the next year and change, so I can't vouch for it on Canadian networks. From what I know of the radio, it should work on Rogers GSM networks for 3G, but it won't get LTE/4G service there (different frequencies in Korea/North America). Are you sure your phone is unlocked?
I am running the stock Korean ROM 2.3.6, but I have rooted mine with zergRush.
Actually I should get 3G & LTE (because Rogers claims to use LTE 2600) but no HSPA+. It wont connect to the network. I suspect that it's possible that the ROM is keeping me from connecting since it's asking me if I want to use Network data outside of South Korea. I suspect the ROM wont connect to foreign data bands. I was just wondering if there was any way to try another ROM...
Hi all,
Last month I had just bought Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SHV-E120S) in Korea and bring it back to use in Malaysia.
Everything is working fine except for SMS.
I am able to send and receive SMS by using the default SMS program. But i can't send out SMS if i use third-party SMS program i.e. GoSms, Handcent SMS.
My phone is not rooted. Details as below:
Firmware version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: SHV-E120S.EL21.0917.ST
Kernel version: 2.6.355.11-E120S.EL27.1737-CL776986
Build number: GINERBREAD.EL27
Somemore, when i tried to restore the SMS backup from my old phone (I9100) to this SHV-E120S, using GoSms, "SMS to Text", "Backup to Gmail" etc, all the old SMS didn't go into default SMS program, instead, it showed only in GoSms or Handcent SMS.
I'd already done the factory reset but the problem still exists.
Do you guys have any idea on this issue?
Appreciate any help from you. Thanks.
Hi guys I am having the same problem, SHV E120s, test messages with GO SMS pro worked initially, but now i am unable to send regular sized SMS.
Just wondering if anyone has figured out how to fix this, or what the issue is
Thanks!

Hi man, try re-flashing into the official firmware first using odin. Let me know if you don't know how to do this.
Next,look up this software named VROOT -> http://www.mgyun.com/en/GetVRoot
They have recently got an english version of the app.
VROOT installs root easily and uses a chinese superuser app. To change this chinese app, just install SuperSU from play store and update its binaries then uninstall the chinese superuser.
You said you unlocked Samsung galaxy Ace 3. But how? I'm interested in it. Can you help me? I have an Ace 3, but it's sim is locked, and i want to use it with another networks sim card.
I would be very happy if you coluld help me
Dear All,
I have been facing an issue of slow gprs on my Samsung Galaxy S3 SHV-E210K due to edge network and HSDPA network not being shown while gprs is connected(instead, G and 3G are shown). The speed has dropped to as low as 1/6 of the original (which I get on my Nokia C5 phone).
I have a strong feeling that if I convert this korean version of Galaxy S3, I will be able to solve the problem. Please help me converting it completely to international version like Galaxy S3 I9305 because the configuration is exactly the same.
I dont know how to root, how to install custom rom, where can they be found. But a step by step guide will surely help me a great deal. I have heard that this is the best site for all the android forums. Please post the complete solution as soon as possible.

@kasingy: I was able to convert it successfully to i9300 using HD Revolution ROM for SHV -E210K but the problem of slow gprs persists. the data sign show G in place of E in INDIA. I think it is due to only 900Hz frequency available in this rom where as Indian phones support 850Hz for edge network..
I have tried flashing various modem.bin files for i9300 to it but didnt get signals.
What to do please help. Will be very very grateful to you!
One more thing, if you are able to solve this, many Indian customers of SHV-E210k could get relief!!
Is it posible?
Is converting to the international version even possible??
Hello everybody, my name is Juan Carlos, I'm from Cuba and I need help with my phone. Recently I received a Samsung Galaxy ACE 4 from a friend of mine, but it was bought in China (for China Telecom) and therefore the main language was chinese.. Fortunately the second language was english and I could change it. All was good and fine but last week the android system (4.4.2) got some troubles with some features like identifying new ringtones I had copied and the audio files... I changed the preferred app to audio and images but all was the same.
The model is GALAXY Ace 4 LTE - SM-G3139D and I found out the ROM in a website, but the only ROM available is for China Telecom and my fear is if I reinstall the ROM all will be back to chinese...
I would like to know if I can install another Samsung Galaxy ROM in English/Spanish and how I will do that in case I can...
Thanks to everybody and excuse my english... sincerely
Juan Carlos

Go to sammobile.com and search your rom and download it ..fladshing info are already there
