bought a dud note 3 - Galaxy Note 3 General

hi guys new to the forum but really need your help!!
I bought a note3 of gumtree last night to which the guy said its unlocked to any network!, upon getting it home i discovered that it would not give me signal with my vodafone uk sim. so thiought ok then it must be locked to o2 as guy said thats what he used in it, so ordered an unlock phone to only discover its a chinese model although it is an orignal note 3 but i cant use any uk sim in it!! i really need some help how to get this sorted as i spent alot of money on this phoen and now feel gutted and angry, i tried phoning guy back etc but no reply!! so looks like im on my own! is there a way of putting uk software on this phone making it take uk sims? please be gentle with me as havent much clue about firmwares etc thanks

did you buy from his house? if so knock on! Also may be worth trying a o2 sim? Do you have the model number?

hi no i met him but i know his postcode and car so worst comes to worst it will be sorted. model number on phone is sm-n900

Thats the International Exynos version if I'm not mistaken, so all is not lost .... but confirm that number with the sticker and in the settings also may pay you to boot it up into download mode just to be really sure :fingers-crossed: As for the sim card not working I think thats just a case of a blacklisted phone but tbh I'm not aware of any network selling the exynos version in the UK so not sure why it would be blacklisted?!?

I am just wondering why you didn't insert your sim in the phone before you paid the jerk

So, is it confirmed fake or not? If it wasn't fake maybe region unlock by Chainfire could fix it, but most likely is a fake.

Goto settings>general>about device. Screenshot and post here.

If it is genuine as you think and I hope it is. Then you can still get it to work in the UK mate.
Try connecting the phone to the the Samsung software called kies. See what it tells you on there and report back. Also hold vol down + home button + power button at the same time. This should bring you into download mode. Let us know what it says on the screen there

Hold they buttons down in that order and they phone will restart.... But keep holding the buttons and it should go into download mode.
Looks like a genuine... But just to be sure go into download mode....

Id take your new expensive paperweight back to where you got it and kindly throw it through the window. Then I think I'd be in jail for gbh for the night. .
I hate these scum bags that do this kind of thing. People work hard to be able to buy these gadgets and it's crushing when it turns out your a mug.

SIM Card Slot Pin Broken ):

Well I switched from an iPhone 4 to the Nexus S (Nexus S is better) but I used a micro-sim adaptor but when I took it out one day it took a pin with it. I called Samsung and they said they don't do repairs like that so where in Canada can I get this repaired? I would love any advice. Thanks!
- Ryan
Same crap happened to me. But I guess I got a little lucky cuz only half of the pin broke off, the other half I just bent up so it would touch the sim when it was put in. Worked for me. Idk if yours came off completely or partially like mine did

The person on the phone said as long as it's not physical damage they can fix it for free... which is ridiculous if you ask me because most people on this forum could fix any non-physical damage on the Nexus.
They told me to go to Rogers for some reason to get it repaired even though I said I got the phone as a gift and it was not from Rogers. I guess I'll try calling them again to see if I can get anyone more helpful.

Well after a long time of playing with it I manage to get the phone to read my sim by putting strips of tin foil on the contacts on the sim card. Disappoints me that I have to do this though and now the phone has no resale value.
I just got mine spoiled after returning from a holiday I've tried putting the copper thing back in place and slotting it back but it doesn't work. Now i have to wait till tomorrow to call Samsung support in hope that they will fix it if i pay money because my device has no warranty because it is from Australia and i'm using it in Singapore. Will they accept it to fix it if i pay for the repair?
And can anyone who used aluminium foil or anything to make it work post photos or videos on how to do it? I have no experience in soldering and stuff (15 years old) and i dont know how much foil to put there. Please help me!

I had similar problem with my Nexus S. I just went to Carphonewarehouse and told them that my sim is not being registering. They have fixed it for free but it took nearly 3 week.
Sent mine to samsung on monday 21st. he said 1-3 days so tomorrow will be the 3rd day which is the 24th. Hope i receive the call to collect it tomorrow. I miss my nexus

Your post is kind of contradictory. You say they wont fix it for free. That suggests that YES they will fix it, but not for free. Which makes total sense, since you physically broke the phone yourself. That's not covered under warranty.
But then you go on to say they told you to talk to Rogers. Your post is very confusing.
Rogers is a carrier. If you have some sort of damage plan or replacement coverage they may help you. Otherwise, at best, they're just going to send it Samsung in the first place. More likely, they won't touch it.
Your options are to try to repair it yourself, try a local shop, or try Samsung again. I seriously doubt that they wouldn't repair it, for $$$.
Or get a 3rd party warranty. Although, that would be pretty unethical and possibly illegal, filing a claim for damage that occurred before you signed up for the plan.

Found a S3, how to get owners info?

I found a S3 today and it looks BRAND NEW. no scratches, in a case, looks perfect. So I want to be able to give it back to the owner. I went into my verizon store and they said they wouldnt do anything. It was a young guy and maybe he didnt care or maybe because its hawaii and everyone is laid back... Anyways, I want to be able to return this phone to its owner. I tried putting in random passwords for the lock screen and i got up to attempt 55 and its not asking for an email; though i dont know if it would show their email. Anyway I can hook it up USB and use a debugger and grab some kind of info? Name? Number? Email? Bypass lock screen to call one of their contacts? Any help would be great!
Call a contact in the across book or put up a craigslish add in lost+found

hey man, cant really help but wanted to say thanks for being a good person.
Id try the vzw route again. im surprised theyre unwilling to help. maybe call the 1800 number and tehy might be able to help and relay information to the store closest to you wtihout giving out the persons information to you over the phone. or call local PD and see if anyone reported something like that stolen. maybe they have the persons info on hand in case its found.

I posted a CL ad already, and will go to the police station and talk to them, though they ha e been rated the most corrupt in the US its hard to see if they will help or just take the phone. I know what it feels like to lose a phone, hopefully I can find the owner!

I wouldn't worry about the police necessarily especially if they say they're bad. I'd say keep it, and if nobody claims it from craigslist keep it and sell it after wiping it.

Carrier is not useful at all! i once ended up buying A AT&T Iphone and it was around the time they started Black Listing IMEI, Anyways long story short..the guy who sold it to me had stolen it! So went to the Store to try to see if they will call the owner and give it back. They told me if id try to do that i could possibly end up in trouble and just toss the device in the garbage or keep it as a Ipod.

That would still keep the lock if all you did was wipe the caches. I had an idea of maybe using a no wipe stock image to Odin flash but wouldn't the same thing happen with the lock screen? Either way, I think runs the risk of it bootlooping and there would be less chance of getting through and calling someone. If it's rooted, maybe there is a nandroid you could restore and maybe they didn't set the lockscreen up?

Help! Bypass/Reset FRP on G930F Galaxy S7

So, I purchased a galaxy S7 (G930F) that turned out to be locked to a google account that the seller claims to have no details of. I have already paid for the phone and would not get the money back. I am now stuck with this phone that keeps on asking for the stupid google account details without which it would not let me use the phone. I have tried looking everywhere on the internet and came to the conclusion that I need to reset or bypass factory reset protection (FRP) in order for me to able to use the phone. There are a couple of guys who can help (one of them is http://www.simplemarket.info/demo/bsyoutubeapipro/user/UCgBhI-0hK6EiNd8mu4VzlHw?lang=ur) but they are asking for ridiculous amounts of money (north of $100). I am happy to pay a nominal fees but this sounds a little too much to me. Does anybody know if there is a free solution (or something that has a reasonable price)?
Why don't you file a dispute from the site you purchased/bank and claim for a refund.

I would have loved to! I paid cash and purchased it from Gumtree (much like Craiglist)
Have you tried to reset your phone in recovery mode ?
To enter the recovery mode, hold down the VOLUME UP + HOME Button keys and then press the POWER button (hold it down untill you're in Recovery mode).
You can also try to download the full official ROM from Sammobile and flash it with ODIN.
This will also reset your phone.
Hey mate, thanks for your suggestions. I have tried doing the factory reset (entering into recovery using power+vol up + home keys) and flashed the stock firmware (entering into download mode using power+vol down+home keys). Unfortunately, neither of those worked

Cannot try this unfortunately since it doesn't support frp reset for G930f (Galaxy s7). Moreover, it needs purchase of a hardware (z3x box) which costs North of $200.
Thanks heaps for your suggestions though
Good luck, I'm going to try those guys in your first post if Samsung repairers can't/won't fix mine.
This is weird, I have had maybe 10 different factory new Android phone since my first, the Legend, and maybe 30 second hand Android phones, but I have never heard that they should be locked to a certain Google/Gmail account. All my phones were readily customizable with my own GMAil account after a factory reset, ready for use. But hen again, I am from Denmark and we used SIM cards in our phones, and I have tried to find the origin country of this poster but couldn't, so maybe he is from a country where phones are coded with the phone number (CDMA??), like mine were when I lived in California. But I will follow this and hope to reveal the type, SIM or CDMA.
It's a new protection for phones shipping with Android 6.0 and onward, it's meant to prevent theft and it's actually very effective at it.

Unless you are in absolute rush, I'd suggest that you shouldn't entertain people like that. There would be a free or low cost solution within a week or so (that's what a few people on gsmhosting forums suggested). I'm actively looking for the solution and I will post the solution here when I do find one.

So is there a fix for this?

Moto One Fusion. Can I unlock BL and root?

Hi everyone. I'm thinking on buying this phone, or maybe the Moto G8 Power. Is the Fusion' BL unlockeable? The version is xt2073-2.
Another question. My biggest doubt is about the display resolution againts G8 Power. Is 720x1600 from fusion good enough for reading?
Any advise?
Thanks a lot.

As long as it's not carrier branded,
Like Verizon, At&t... It should be able to unlock the bootloader

It's ok to read/watch anthing the quality is good enough
I strongly advice against unlocking this phone in particular, i just did and it broke completely, also, i see you're postin from Argentina, i'd say don't break it since movistar tech service aint takin any phone back even if it's brand new, GL.

Hi. I finally bought the g8 power xt2041-1. Your advice is about the fusion or the g8? I got it from Fravega, but the warranty is only from motorola. I don't know if unlocking BL / bricking ends the warranty.

As far as my experience goes, it's solely about the motorola one fusion, g8 i can't say, and about the bootloader i might be able to tell you soon... I'm thinking of returnin the phone and get my money back. or fix it, whichever comes first

Yes please, come back and tell us how your case ends. The guy from Fravega said I have ten days to test the phone. After that, he said I have one year warranty from motorola. I don't know hoy to contact them in case I need. It seems I'm gonna wait a long time and read a lot before I try to touch the BL. Good luck.

Well, this is how it developed, i did contact the manufacturer tech support and they did take the device for rapairs, said the phone motherboard was faulty and did replace it and returned it working within 5 days, all very swifty and straightforward, coming from Motorolla, they did not, either notice or cared if i touched the bootloader, so i dont know..

I'm glad to heard that. How did you contact them? Via email? Did they take the device or you had to send it to them? I'm from Argentina, I guess you too. Any info is apreciated in case of need.
Enjoy your phone.
