Anyone having information on U11+ availability in India. How can I buy a translucent model.
Even I am waiting for the 'translucent black' variant . I like the Amazing silver variant - But, 'translucent black' is cool.
HTC says no official announcement yet. So, not sure.
At least if they that the 'translucent black' variant would not be released in India - we can think of alternates (another color - or even another phone <not HTC>)
I settled up.with a pixel 2XL

We all know that the Sensation has suffered from its fair share of bugs and glitches (every new device does) but what I didn't know prior to buying this phone is that models sold in HK (Unbranded or Branded) are not supported in the same manner as the rest of the world. I hope this post can prevent someone else form making the same mistake as me.
After reading forums and talking to people, it became clear that devices in HK were either missing software updates entirely, or getting them months later than the rest of Asia (or the world for that matter).
I contacted HTC about this and spoke with Mike at the HK Customer Service center. He confirmed that HTC Hong Kong has a different policy regarding updates and has no plans to EVER release small incremental updates. He even referred to previous handsets (HTC Desire HD models in HK didn't receive the updates that the rest of the world did) saying that the only time exceptions have been made to this policy is when a major OS update 2.1->2.2 has been issued. Apparently unlike other regions, it is standard policy not to release small updates in Hong Kong. He also doubted that the bootloader update (expected in August) would be available for Hong Kong branded phones stating the models sold in HK are treated separately from other global models. Although I tried to get him to give me an explanation for this bizarre policy, the only answer I could get is that most HK customers are happy with the current release.
As it stands now, HK Sensations are stuck on software version number 1.28.708.2 and HTC HK is categorically stating that they will remain here indefinitely.
Lesson learned for me is to never buy an HTC device in HK ever again.
Does anyone know if there is a way to flash a standard Asia rom (region 707) to a HK phone (region 708)?
i have 1.28.720.2...i thought mine was sourced from HK...have any idea what the 720 region is?
I bought mine in HK, it came with the Asian rom on it
I would expect come the unlock you can then put what ever you like on it but not until then.
and no idea where 720 is, hopefully someone else can tell you.
I spoke with HTC UK about my Sensation (bought on EBay) and it seems that 720 is India!

sweeeet (i don't know why i think that's good, but whatever...)
I'm looking at purchasing a 3G Note 10.1 and see on the Samsung web site that the UK model number is GT-N8000EAABTU. I've seen the following model being sold GT-N8000ZWABTU on Amazon UK. What's the difference with EEA vs ZWA? Is the one from Amazon not a true UK spec device?
Also, given the choice would you go for the German version or UK version? I'm thinking from an update point of view the German version seems to get updates earlier but is that a real advantage? I'm not in the UK so purchasing from either Amazon UK or DE makes no difference to me and price is pretty similar.

I think the only difference will be the version or the ROM, try Googling the two see what comes up. As for UK or German, yes it would appear that the DBT models get updates soonest but this could easily change so I wouldn't worry.
are there any branded nexus models or are they all unbranded no matter what network they come on?
also i hear hangouts is massively annoying being the sms app. will installing the 4.3 sms app work?

Google Play Store selling 2 unbranded variants - one for the Americas and one for the rest of the planet (Euro & Asia) due to bands used by carriers, that's far less than the iOS products sold for their eco systems. And, both are unlocked - there are unconfirmed rumors that those sold directly by Sprint (with CDMA/LTE bands) might - MIGHT - have extra bloats loaded as they resell them with a highly marked up price for postpaid contract customers.
Otherwise, mine came from Google directly and running T-Mobile USA sim, and there is nothing else on it.

I have a Sprint Nexus 4 on T-mobile. Same exact phone. Same model number, same build number, and 100% factory unlocked with ZERO bloat. So that rumor is confirmed. I also got best buy to price match the play store price.
so hopefully it won't matter what network i go on, the phone should be bloatware free?
do you have any regrets getting it?

The first handset to launch loaded with Android Nougat might soon reach Europe in a slightly updated form, since LG has filed for the V20 S trademark in the area.
This is promising!
Seems to be quite a few rumours floating around that it might be and EU version of the LG v34. Or they could do the normal thing LG do and just give us a LG v20 with last years CPU.
Talks about a 5.2" version. That would make it a different phone afaic

There is a small version available in japan, might be mod version for the european market, or as the rumor say, a updated version of the internation version of the V20.
From what I hear it is the V34 from Japan and will be the V20S in Europe.
I wished that it was also offered here in the U.S. as an unlocked version.
I'm sure it would sell well here...
Hello XDA people,
I am looking for a trusted source to get LE2113 (global/EU) variant of OnePlus 9, specifically looking for 12GB RAM 256GB storage size, that can ship to Canada or US (I live in Canada). All official OnePlus websites in Europe only can ship within Europe. AliExpress's official OnePlus store has a similar problem too when ordering the EU version. Anyone know or have bought this variant and got it shipped to Canada/US, and from where?
I tried this website: https://www.teknistore.com/en/64-bi...isplay-android-11-48mp-camera-warp-charg.html, but I got a feeling it is a scam from the reviews on the website in general.
Thanks.
You may want to check the radios on those to make sure that they're compatible with your provider. The EU version doesn't have the same radios as the North American version. The NA version actually has MORE radios.
Unless the extra RAM and storage are important to you, I'd just get the NA version an you can convert it to the EU ROMs.

The EU version has most of the network support in US/Canada (it supports all of the networks of the carrier I am using here in Canada - I am using Freedom Mobile). The reason I want the global/EU variant is because of the dual SIM support.
what country are you in?

I mentioned that in my previous answer. I live in Canada, and I am using Freedom Mobile. I checked Kimovil for the network bands support, and my carrier has 100% support (not all phones have that, especially band 13). In fact, this phone has green everywhere with good support, so I believe it will work great with most networks across US/Canada, hence why it is a global version.
Yeah... eBay.
They got one on there for $550 right now

Can you send me the link to the product in eBay? I want the LE2113 (EU/Global) version, not the LE2110 (CN) [with global ROM] version, or any other version?
It's the single sim TMobile version.
Why don't you want the Chinese one? That's what I got. I think it's the best one. And Ive had every OTA on this device. AA, BA and Da...

The problem is with the network support. Check Kimovil for the CN version vs Global version vs NA version vs IN version. NA version has the best network support overall and in North America. Global version falls slightly short, but I want that due to having dual SIM support, so I can tolerate a bit loss of network support over no dual SIM (if NA has eSIM at least, I'd get it, otherwise forget getting a single SIM phone). CN is super ****ty version because of the lack of many network bands support in global and in North America, as well as missing the wireless charging (wireless charging is not that important for me now). IN version is even ****tier in all of the things I mention before.
This is my reasoning to get a LE2113 (global version) instead of the other versions. I have a global version OnePlus 3, and back then the networks are fine since, for example, bands 4 and 7 were heavily used everywhere, but now they seem to be discontinued in many places, and I would need a phone with band 13 (long distance frequency) to get a signal in many areas (at my home, it is always in roaming now).
