Hi,
I am looking to purchase a S7 GM930FD from Ebay, but was wondering if Chinese was available as a language in the options, and if it is, which type of Chinese is available (looking for the Hong Kong Chinese language). If anyone with the phone can help, that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

You have to be careful. As far as I can tell there is an Asian model but most of the people that I have seen talking about their FDs have the Gulf model which is the one I have. I suspect if you get the Asian model the language selection for Chinese won't be worse than on the Gulf model but if you can find somebody who knows for sure and you can be sure which phone you're getting it would be a lot better. Here's a pic of the last page of the language list.

They have different product codes. You have to do a little research. Presumably you can read Chinese so I would start searching for Chinese language sites that list the phone. They are probably not selling the gulf models. Or you could look for Chinese people here on the forums.
What are the last three languages on the page? I know the 4th from the last is Korean. I can't tell what the last 3 are.

The last 3 are Chinese simplified and traditional and the last one is Japanese.
I will have a look for the product code. If anyone has the Asian version please let me know what Chinese languages you have and the product code.

Thanks, that's very interesting. I can see the Japanese now that you mentioned it.

490 Euros... That's $600+ USD.
A new TP bought without a contract would be 500 USD and with taxes, would be about $540 USD.

Get dotfred Task Manager and use its Registry Editor to make the changes

Or you can flash a cooked ROM and use an AZERTY SIP keyboard, I think monx made an FR localized ROM

Ah, but would the $540 USD model have video-calling (inc. front-mounted camera) and European 3G capabilities?
thanks guy for all your nice effort. This mobile is realy nice, but i prefer to get back some money
If it is possible to buy a no brand touch pro unblocked without contract with waranty under 500USD, gimmi the link and I'll buy some of them
as in making it SIM-Free AKA works with any carrier
not as in unlocking the bootloader
Thanks
It's already unlocked

N00b speaking : is it? in UK there is no SIM-Free ones from Carphone Warehouse or you mean there is a way to unlock it
I might be n00b. But I got my answer from Google UK. So I assume that's valid.

In fact I m drunk
it is available
but my Q still stands: is it possible to unlock the locked ones?
btw the noob in my Q was referring to me NOT to you
Thanks for your answer mate
I couldn't find any information about the phone being locked in the site you linked me to.
But anyway, i'm not from UK so i'm not sure. But most of the world are getting it already unlocked. Google UK Nexus S site says its unlocked though.
But i'm sure there is a way to unlock a locked Nexus S as it's meant to be unlocked anyway
But I can't really help you with that because I do not have the experience of unlocking a Nexus S yet.
Thanks for taking the time to reply
the price for the SIM-Free one and the Carrier-Locked one is the same but I was just asking, maybe because it's a challenge or because you might get your phone via a contract and you need to unlock it
Regards
No problem. I hope someone comes by and help you clarify things up. Sorry I couldn't be of any help.
mine came from a carrier upgrade in the UK and isn't locked.

Thanks for that! Now I got it..
That's why the price is the same
those devices are just "branded" not "carrier-locked"
Thank you very much

Glad that you finally solved your problem
I sold my Desire Z recently and found an announcement on the internet, some1 sells his nexus s. The device is brand new, bought from Vodafone Romania and the man said that is carrier-locked. Is there any way to unlock it?
I read above, all of you say that is only branded, not locked. But what if the seller is right, and the device is really sim-locked, how could i unlock it? any clues?
I made this thread for all the portuguese members of XDA that want a Nexus device, but unfortunally they can't. If you go to the portuguese Google webpage, you will only see the Galaxy Nexus as a buying choice so, you can't either get the Nexus 10, 7 or Q, and this also happens to official stores. Simply, you can't find a one of those 3 devices for sale in Portugal on any store, but for some reason on Spain (and pratically all european countries) the devices appear on the website and you can buy them(Spain is next to Portugal).
Google, why do you hate us!?

Status update: today, 2nd November, the Nexus 7 start being sold!
The Nexus 7 yes, but it will be long till we see a Nexus 10 here.. Damn!
Yeah, probably it will that as long has the Nexus 7... and I wanted to buy it on Christmas
Which doesn't makes sense..we should give props to Apple in that..Devices are available soon after they were presented. As for the Nexus 10, only way is to go and buy it on Spain.
exactly. If Google wants to raise up their sales, they shuold really start selling in portugal :/
Google isn't really relying in Portugal to boost up their sales..Our market is small, that's why.
Unfortunally yes... Well I guess I have to wait for the next year to buy the Nexus 10, or I'll have to go for the Transformer Pad TF300T
If I really wanted it, I would buy it in Spain. I do want the Nexus 7 for now..so it's all good for me
I guess I will buy the Nexus 7 too maybe
Subscribed.. as portuguese is lame we must go to spain or uk to buy the n4.

Where i can sign?

Fnac
I've brought a few books in the French Fnac website and asked them to be delivered in a Portuguese Fnac without extra fees. Going to contact them when Fnac.fr starts announcing the Nexus 10.
Thank you for the info. I guess Spain FNAC will do that too (hopefully).
An "update": on FNAC (and Worten too), the Nexus 7 is only selling the 32 GB version, for 249€. The price is fair (keep in mind that the dollar prices are always unfairly not changed for euro, for example, this tablet costs 249$ for the 32 GB version and in Portugal the same version costs 249€, but the fair price would be about 195€). There is still nothing on the Play Store, only about the Nexus, just like on Brazil.
Fnac and ElCorteIngles
I've contacted the Portuguese Fnac and they say they can't receive these items from other countries.
I'm now contacting the Spanish ElCorteIngles because they send to Portugal this kind of items for 14€. This price includes transport and insurance.
If we have to go to Spain to get it, which city would you go to? Badajos? They have an ElCorteIngles there. Do you know any other shops?
I don't really know any stores on Spain, I would have to do research - but something close to Porto
BIG-ASS UPDATE: Play Store is now showing the Nexus 7 too!! But we can't buy them directly from the Play Store, we have to choose a reseller, but still it's awesome
Something I noticed: It says that the Galaxy Nexus will " soon have JellyBean" when the updates are already out.
Also, in the page title, it says Nexus Q, but it doesn't shoq up on the page itself.
I live outside US, and I am planning to visit US in the following weeks.
I want to buy a (non-contract) Nexus 5 by paying cash, I can not buy from Google Play Store.
I looked at BestBuy, but it seems they are selling Nexus 5 16GB version for $499.
So, is there any other retailer that has a reasonable price?
Thanks.

For 30 euro`s more you have a international N5 16GB with easier warranty (geographicly) and LTE comptability on Amazon for instance.
BTW on top of the 399 USD price you also have to pay for taxes and shipping.
Please stop spamming XDA forum. This is your 4th thread about buying a Nexus 5 now. 1 thread is enough! Please re-use your existing threads instead of creating new ones.

No, they are not. They are all about whether you should by a Nexus 5 and where you should get your nexus 5 from.

Please keep it to one single thread. we don't want to keep coming up on the same thread every week. Just post it once and leave it at that. This is a developers forum, not a "help me buy a nexus 5" forum, so one thread would easily suffice.
Thank you!
Hi,
I made the "Jump" today to the Galaxy S7 Edge though T-Mobile. I got tired of waiting for Marshmallow. The V10 taught me that I don't necessarily need to maintain 2 spare batteries and an external charger (despite getting them for free from LG). I even don't even use the wireless charging circuit (though trying the QC wireless is on my agenda with this phone). Does any body know a market as easy as Swappa for accessories?

I'm curious as to how you made the "Jump" to the S7 Edge on T-Mobile when it doesn't even ship until March 10th. They are only taking pre orders at this time. Guess you are gonna sell your current phone and what, do without a phone until your order arrives sometime after the 10th? Just trying to put a little common sense reality into this thread.

It's simple. The first 4/5 of the post was to be ignored. The last sentence was the real intention. (it's an ad in disguise.)

Then he needs to post it elsewhere cause this isn't a market for selling his stuff. That's what Swapps, eBay, Amazon, and Craigslist are for.

Thank you for letting us know. It was very important for us to know this.
We will close this before it becomes a market that is not allowed on XDA
There is absolutely no selling/buying/trading on XDA.
OP good luck with your new phone.
