This might be a dumb question but would it be possible to replace the mainboard of my I9300 with one from a I9305?
Basically I'm looking to get a 4G phone but don't fancy buying a whole new one and wondering if I can buy a 4G main board separately and do it myself?
Is this doable and is there anywhere I can get one in the UK?

I don't think it can be done, you will also need the aerial that supports 4g etc. So in my opinion no it will not work plus I don't even no if it will fit.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone would be able to help me with my question/problem. I'm kind of new to this site, so please excuse me if I seem noobish. I tried looking everywhere in the forums for something similar to my predicament, but I didn't find anything. Either that, or I didn't look very well.
Anyways, I'll try to be as brief as possible. I bought a broken Samsung Galaxy S2 with a cracked screen and broken digitizer for $100. My plan was to swap out everything with replacement parts, but when I took it apart to check the model number (because I noticed some differences from my i9100) I found out that it was the Korean-type S2. The model number is SHW-M250S. I looked everywhere on Ebay and Amazon for the lcd screen and digitizer for this exact model, and nothing came up except the regular i9100 lcd+digitizer replacements. Link below:

I did check on Amazon, and the closest thing I was able to find for the shw-m250s model are these items that are in the link below. Other than the lcd screen and digitizer, it also comes with a brand new housing and other parts I don't need. Which is just making it more expensive. Link below:
http://www.amazon.com/Touchscreen-Di...6418770&sr=1-3
My question is, can I use a regular i9100 lcd screen and digitizer replacement part for my SHW-M250S model, or at least use the (SHW-M250L) model part that I found on Amazon? The SHW-M250L parts look very similar to the one that I have. (That "L" could be a typo) If not, can someone send me a link to a site or place where I can buy ONLY the lcd screen and digitizer part for my exact model?
Thanks a lot in advance.

The "L" supports CDMA, which you do not have, but my guess is they should all work, since they use the same screen. I could be wrong, though.
I would buy the international and if it doesn't work for your model - resell it. You can also try asking in the monster SHW-M250S thread.
By my guess, I think it should still be compatible because I doubt the screens have any major differences whether its a CDMA or GSM version. Neither do they affect the phones GSM or CDMA ability itself.

I have 2 GNotes I717 - the white one and the carbon(blue/black)
the Black one is unlocked and workes great with T-Mobile.
the white one is the one i mostly use . should i just sell one ? or keep one for hacks and such ?
how much would i get for each of these devices ?
Around $500, maybe a little less. Its up to u really, but to be honest if ur asking if u should keep it or not, indicates u don't NEED it. I recommend selling
yeah i really dont need 2 SAME EXACT PHONES...
i do want to root one and install a TABLET rom so i can use as a tablet, but it seemed a little too complicated plus it wasnt 100% tablet ..
$500 doesnt sound too bad really. im almost willing to trade it for the "Samsung Tablet 7.0 WiFi"
i would think is a fair trade ...
I think that's a much better idea. Post it on kijiji or craigslist as a direct trade or sale. Use the note to get an android tablet, but get a much bigger screen, 10.1 if you can.

All,
i would like to buy new HOX + since my HTC incredible s is stolen..i love HTC & Sense, and HOX + comes in my budget..but, in ebay i can get only ATT or Telus version HOX..but i live in india, worried whether the reception is very low since my friend is also using S3 ATT version n signal strength is weak..
Just want to know whether Flashing a radio of internation version to ATT version would brick the device or works well?
Any idea from experts? based on this factor only i will place my order in ebay.
Thanks all guys Really a great community this is.
PS: i know there is no KK official update for this device. Just gone through the forum and can see many active development going on..Only intention of buying this device is cos of this great dev community

From what I've heard, no. The international and ATT is different and plus the phone would probably not allow you to flash the radio of another device, unless you are s-off. I don't think it was ever done but it's probably not worth the brick. BTW there is not much development going on for the HOX+ atm. Hopefully things will kick up soon. The Samsung s3 is different than the HOX+ , maybe it will be better maybe worst. I get better signal than my dad's Note 3.

Hello everyone, I live in the US using AT&T LTE. What phone model will work for me and can be rooted n flash some ROMs? I read that a particular model can't do that, can u guys help?
Thanks in Advanced!
You need a C6806 since your using AT&T and want LTE as well.
They're kind of hard to find brand new now for a reasonable price, unless you don't mind buying a used device.

it will be 100% compatible, because the parts are the same, the conections too so...you're ok to do that. Only thing you can expect is in software part the bands from 4G network maybe dont be the same. other than that you're good to replace from H900 to a F600 mainboard.
