Hello everyone,
I'd like to find out, if you can help me, the following information about my Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 GT-I9205:
I am from Brazil and I have recently bought this phone in the UK on a business trip at Heathrow Airport. It was not a carrier shop, just a regular electronics shop. The phone is unlocked and working normally with my Brazilian carrier.
My questions are:
a) With the recent releases of KiKat 4.4.2 in Russia and USA for the Galaxy Mega, is there a way for me to find out (through IMEI or model number) if my phone is associated with a carrier? There was no information about it when I bought it and I just wonder if the release of KiKat for my device will depend upon this associated carrier (if there is one) for me to have it.
b) My version of the Galaxy Mega is the LTE version (GT-I9205) as opposed to the other international version (GT-I9200) and also different model number from the American one. I was thunking about trying one of the custom ROMs for the Mega but, as far as I know, the KitKat update is only related to the GT-I9200 model. Would that pose any problems if I tried to use a ROM on a different device model?
Thanks for your help!
Hi if you brought it unlocked in UK I prrseume from Dixon's travel or similar then its not associated with any carrier at all. If you flashed a ROM for the i9200 on the i9205 you would loose LTE. If you are on stock ROM you could just flash the latest from Sammy mobile be mindful of Samsung Knox. Otherwise you could flash a custom rom . I have to say for this phone and its lack of memory I moved to resurrection remix which is feature full stable and fast.

Thanks for the reply! I figured the phone was unbranded and yes, I did buy it at Dixon's Travel!
The only thing I wonder now is we have seen all these carriers releasing KitKat for the Mega, how will it reach unbranded phones - will it take longer or Samsung will release accordingly with the carriers? Just a general wondering.
As Said, I bought this phone from amazon, not sure which country's version they have sent me but I am unable to get my wind mobile sim running in this version. I tried to install sm-n9005 firmware for Philippines and Thailand but none worked.
Can anyone please suggest me or give me a link as to which country's firmware I have to install. I went to wind mobile service center and they say ya this mobile can work with wind by doing some flash and they will charge me $50 for that.
So can you suggest me the firmware version I have to download ( as I see almost all the European and Asian countries in the list except Canada.

Hi guys parallax no longer works on my so 5.1.1 I just updated yesterday. Even if I factory reset it is stuck on this 5.1.1 with no parallax. The only way is to download an external app but I don't want to do this. I paid for an s6 and it should work. Is there any room it will work on? I'm thinking of rooting and installing customer recovery. Can anyone help? Thanks
Which build are you on because I'm on G925FXXU3QOJ5 which is also a Vodafone ROM, but from South Africa, and parallax works
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy J8 from Australia because I lost my phone there. When I came home to India I found out that the Australian J8 does not support VoLTE (Voice over LTE) but I need VoLTE for my Indian sim card to work. So I went to the Samsung service center but they straight away denied any support since I bought this in another country.
The Indian varient J8 supports VoLTE but the Australian one does not even when both the phones have the exact same hardware. So its a software limitation.
Can anyone suggest any method I can use to install any custom ROM that'll support VoLTE.
I'm willing to install anything, root my phone or whatever it takes since I'm never gonna get any warranty on this. So I might as well try everything else.

Just download Indian firmware from sammobile and flash via odin, that will contain latest modem for your device. It might bring VoLTE, because I think its software problem.

I tried but it won't let me install any other model firmware. My phone's Model Number is SM-J810Y but the phones available in India have model number SM-J810G. So it won't let me install the "G" firmware. I get a failed message.
Do you have any other suggestion?

Hi, I wanted to change my ROM but I forgot the OEM. I am stuck with the FRP. Someone would have the U3 COMBINATION for the J810YDXU3BSE1
Please
Hey, I have a SM-G965U (Snapdragon) with csc oyn unlocked using network code from Xfinity Mobile in the US, can this phone use lineage OS 18? I want any stock rom. Thanks

Stripy,
I don't think so. I think it will install but calls and text don't work.
If WhatsApp works it's fine
