Hello;
What means this (F/FQ/M/L etc.) extentions that you can after Samsung Alpha G850 code?
I know this is reqion specific product code, but are there any technical difference?
So, for example can i install (F) rom to (FQ) device? (if not whay -so if they have all same tehnical components).
Regards!

Hi all,
I just got my new Atrix and really looking forward to start playing with custom ROM's.
However to unlock i need to choose the correct file to use. So can anyone help me with that?
In the info page on the phone this is what is says:
Model MB860
Firmware 2.2.2
System version 4.2.13.MB860.Retail.en.FR
I have bought this phone with an Vodafone plan in Holland. But there are no Vodafone logo's on it ( or other logo's)
Thanks allready!
System version 4.2.13.MB860.Retail.en.FR - France ?
Any carrier apps on your phone ?

German unbranded device have: 4.4.20.MB860.Retail.en.DE
=> But "Fr" means France
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

no, no and no.
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.
i have the same phone as you do some chinese guy rooted the phone without asking me and then i have ended up with this boring software i have tired everything the at&t thing doesnt even work but i will keep looking and when i find it i will post to let you know what i did!!
Hi I just got two S3, one from England (Orange) and one from Germany (don't know the carrier).
I want to flash both of them but I see several categories for the S3, and don't know what software I can use or not. Can anyone tell me what I need to check or how do I know the ROMS that I can use?
Thanks in advance

You need to find out which model you have. The international version is going to be something like the GT-i9300. If the ROM you wish to flash says it's only for that model, do NOT attempt to flash it to a different model. Doing so may brick your device.
You can find more about the different models and some useful info in the wiki on XDA for the Galaxy S III variants.

Check the model number of both the phones in settings>about. If they are GT-I9300's then you can flash ROM's from this section. If it's something else DO NOT FLASH anything form this section. Check the model numbers given in the other sections (T-mobile, sprint..etc.. etc.,) before flashing.
Hi again,
i have a lumia 920 with rm-822 inside (bought in china),
i have been trying to flash it to rm-821 version with no success.
i get this error:
"The FFU file is not meant for this product. The platform ID of image does not match with platform ID of the device"
i tried 3 different versions so far.
what am i doing wrong?
what is the platform ID anyway?
can anyone help me please?
As I know, u cannot flash a 822 to 821. I know u can do a flash of 820 to 821 though, but I dunno if that works in ur particular case.

Platform ID is most likely a hard coded ID in the phones hardware to allow the updates to know what region the phone is and if the update is correct for that region. Now if you can unpack the update you might be able to change the platform ID it is expecting to your phones ID but then again you would have to know that ID. Short answer is you have to flash ROMS that are meant for the region your phone was purchased in.

interesing, do you know any way to repack the ffu files?
That would require a compiler/decompiler or kitchen as some might call it and I am not sure those are even available to the open market yet. I suppose they would be since Portico is out, somebody built it which mean they unpacked and packed it.. i would try to get in touch with those working on Portico.
thanx

I should have worded that differently seeing as English must not be your primary language.
When somebody says I would do something in the way I said it, it mean that if I was you I would do it.
In other words if you want to check into a kitchen or software needed to create ROMS then YOU as in YOURSELF not ME needs to contact the guys working on the Portico ROM.

Hello,
I am new to this forum. I am also new to flashing ROMs. I have recently installed Amber Update which made my Camera Quality terrible. I heard about flashing rom but never do that. One guy from another forum sent me link and tutorial how to downgrade my phone to GDR1. My questions are:
1. Do I lose warranty when I flash my phone?
2. Is it dangerous? Phone can stop working ?
3. Is it reversible? Can I hard reset to original ROM ?
4. Is it possible that ROM is virus and if yes, then how to check it?
5. This guy sent me a link to ROM with Variant Name : RM-885 VAR PL PTK CENTERTEL WHITE. How to know if its GDR1, is it working ? Is there any database with "checked and working" ROMs?
Sorry if some of the question are very simple but I am new and can't google it.
EDIT: please moderator move my topic here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/help, it is wrong place, sorry.
can you send the link to me too?
Hi, @MistyKuu
1. Do I lose warranty when I flash my phone?
Technically, yes, you will lose the warranty.
2. Is it dangerous? Phone can stop working ?
When driving a car, there is a risk that you have an accident. For flashing process, is the same.
3. Is it reversible? Can I hard reset to original ROM ?
You can quite flash the original ROM.
4. Is it possible that ROM is virus and if yes, then how to check it?
No, and in addition, the integrity of the Packages will be checked by Nokia Care Suite.
5. This guy sent me a link to ROM with Variant Name : RM-885 VAR PL PTK CENTERTEL WHITE. How to know if its GDR1, is it working ? Is there any database with "checked and working" ROMs?

Ok, he proposed you a branded ROM.
I advise you, it is the opposite that is to say an unbranded ROM.
But the unbranded ROM for 720 specific for Poland, it lacks your color (White). However you can flash a ROM of another color as your 720, because it does not change (only the default color?).
So I suggest you to flash 059S593 RM-885 VAR PL CV BLACK.

Ok thank you very much. What is the difference between branded and not branded ROM ? He suggested it, because he has "ROM search" by Serial ID, so is he wrong? Color will not have matter?

Unbranded, allows removing operators settings by changing of ROM. This allow get the options/features not "flanged" and generally have updates more quickly than if you were branded.
The color does not matter.
