How to probably find the best modem for your country.
1. Ctrl+F
2. Type in country.
3. Find the beginning letters in the modem list.
4. ???
5. Profit.
P.S: If you're out of luck, and can't find a modem for your country, try searching for one near you.
Love, Daniel.

You can easily remove the CTRL button from a keyboard and plug it in via USB.

You could/should try the BU (vodafone) modems, like JP5 or JV3 (newer). They gave me good results back in my vodafone-days in the NL :good:

That should get you going.
type *#1234# in your dialer.
IIRC, first code is your PDA code, second is your modem, the third is your CSC code indicating the sales region of your phone. Check out the three three letters following the number 7100, then look up at this page, it indicates the region of your phone. Unless someone flashed your phone with different firmware, this is the most reliable way.
In the case someone might have flashed your phone, someone else have to chime in and tell us how to check the original region your phone comes from using IMEI number
Even if i have format and hv changed the rom?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
That's what I was saying, if the ROM has been changed, it's a hard call.
Please help me on this guys i hv formated my phone and installed a custom rom, i only hv thr serial number and the imei number, all i wany is to know from where this comes from.witch region
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Well this is funny. The 3 letter right after 7100 on CSC line says UUB. That is not on the on the page saberzaid provided...
lol i dont mean this, what i mean is i want to know the orginal regin of my phone, cuz i have format it and i hv installed custom rom and i cant know the orginal region now, so i want to know how, i hv the serial num and the imie num can i know the orginal region of my phone?

I've received mine from newegg today also. I have OZS ... I guess it's China region. Weird symbols, no single word in English... It took me 30 mins to get thru set up process, almost learned some Chinese then finally changed the language... The phone looks flawless but the box was opened before.. They used some other stickers on top of original samsung sticker to seal it back.. I am disappointed in Newegg. Was your box opened too? I don't know what to do now, should I send it back for an exchange or refund? Also, does it matter where the phone was made?..

I was just gonna reply to OP this, before see your post. I think it doesn't really matter, hardware is all the same. Search around, flash some ROM from other region, change some CSC, all the features you want should be in there. I believe that Newegg was selling Note 2 really cheap (like $580 or something) because they got Hong Kong version or something. These phones are selling dirt cheap in China. There are different versions in China like Europe, Hong Kong, Latin America, etc. Prices vary because of the warranty. Hong Kong version is warranted in mainland China, so it is being pricier compared to Euro and Latin America versions. I think Euro and L.America version is like $550/$560 in China right now, so when i see Newegg sell their phone at $580, instantly i thought they must've imported from China!
Btw, if there is Chinese in your phone, it's more likely HK version as Mainland China hasn't got this phone yet.

Yea, I got it for $580 while it was on sale at newegg. Why would they open the box? Hopefully, just to change the China power plug to U.S. type plug...?
So, you think there is no difference in the hardware quality and materials they used? Isn't China known for bad quality products? Also, why do they sell other versions of Note II (L.America and Europe) in China if they got Hong Kong version. Do you know if there is a price difference between all those versions that they have? Good thing that I got 90 days return policy on the phone.

A lot of questions lol
I have the same obsession as you do, that's why i paid my premium and bought from a seller on Amazon that I made sure with, that their stocks are all Europe and not open.
As to why there are diff version in China, same reason as it is in America (well, several months ago in America)--because it is not officially released and people buy imports. Market is a chaos in China though. Unlike how we can import from Europe on Amazon, people traffic phones into China (illegally, to avoid tax or take-away by customs). So many people open box and separately bring the phone and the packaging separately into mainland China. Then, becuz of this, there comes another variation: the "version" that the S/N on box does not match the phone's S/N. This happens more to the EU version though, not on HK version, because it's a lot easier to bring the seal-packaged phone into Mainland from HK than from Europe or other regions. If you care to know, HK is under reign of Mainland China and the custom-free entry/exit was allowed several years ago. People bring HK version back to Mainland and sell as-is at higher price tag, while EU version often has to be opened and brought into mainland with phone/box separated, i.e. open box, which caused the lower price tags on these versions.
I'm not creating any panic or worries here, but if your phone was in Chinese, it's actually a good thing cuz you most likely got HK version and it was newegg that opened the box. Much better than those EU and other versions that were opened by somebody else. Even if you got (unlikely) open-box EU and other versions, it's fine as long as S/N on phone matches package S/N. Or, it's even better for some people (like me) because it's EU version after all. i dont know why, but it's just my preference lol.
Overall, no worries, if the phone works problem free, why worry so much? This is from logic perspective though, with any obsession/emotional thinking taken out of the way :cyclops:
As to the quality, check where your phone is made. Even if it's made in China (or maybe Cambodia lol) i think it is still fine. I know Apple quality is no longer top-notch these days, but compare MBA to Acer ultrabooks, both made in China, MBA triumphs Acer in quality. It all comes down to the quality control, right?
Take your time to enjoy the device instead of worrying about it
Cheers

Of course, when QC is limited or uneffective, Chinese quality is definitely no comparison to GERMAN quality

I have the same obsession as you do, that's why i paid my premium and bought from a seller on Amazon that I made sure with, that their stocks are all Europe and not open.
As to why there are diff version in China, same reason as it is in America (well, several months ago in America)--because it is not officially released and people buy imports. Market is a chaos in China though. Unlike how we can import from Europe on Amazon, people traffic phones into China (illegally, to avoid tax or take-away by customs). So many people open box and separately bring the phone and the packaging separately into mainland China. Then, becuz of this, there comes another variation: the "version" that the S/N on box does not match the phone's S/N. This happens more to the EU version though, not on HK version, because it's a lot easier to bring the seal-packaged phone into Mainland from HK than from Europe or other regions. If you care to know, HK is under reign of Mainland China and the custom-free entry/exit was allowed several years ago. People bring HK version back to Mainland and sell as-is at higher price tag, while EU version often has to be opened and brought into mainland with phone/box separated, i.e. open box, which caused the lower price tags on these versions.
I'm not creating any panic or worries here, but if your phone was in Chinese, it's actually a good thing cuz you most likely got HK version and it was newegg that opened the box. Much better than those EU and other versions that were opened by somebody else. Even if you got (unlikely) open-box EU and other versions, it's fine as long as S/N on phone matches package S/N. Or, it's even better for some people (like me) because it's EU version after all. i dont know why, but it's just my preference lol.
Overall, no worries, if the phone works problem free, why worry so much? This is from logic perspective though, with any obsession/emotional thinking taken out of the way :cyclops:
As to the quality, check where your phone is made. Even if it's made in China (or maybe Cambodia lol) i think it is still fine. I know Apple quality is no longer top-notch these days, but compare MBA to Acer ultrabooks, both made in China, MBA triumphs Acer in quality. It all comes down to the quality control, right?
Take your time to enjoy the device instead of worrying about it

Of course, when QC is limited or uneffective, Chinese quality is definitely no comparison to GERMAN quality

That's what i'm saying, not, but that's what I meant lol
Flash a ROM and there's no difference as long as you don't experience any problem.
Samsung also did good jobs because they now include more supported language (both menu and input method) at least in their European ROM
When i first got my Note 2 i wasn't impressed much because i didn't like the look more than Note1, also because dpi (or ppi) can't be changed w/o many issues on this phone. I liked 240ppi on my Note 1 VERY VERY MUCH. However, after fiddling around with for less than an hour, boom, my Note 1 is forgotten. It's got so many features out of box that I really didn't come up with many things to mod and improve, so I am now SEARCHING for anything that I can do to improve the device, hah.
Either way, enjoy the phone!

[Q] Bricked!!! Need help.

I was using unofficial rom. I was trying to expand ram using external card. Everything was ok. Suddenly my screen frozen and I unplugged charger and battery.
Than I plugged the battery again. But the phone didnt start. An unofficial phone service tryed jtag. But they caould't manage. Samasung says your garanty is over and you should pay 205$ for motherboard.
When I connect my phone to a win7 64 bit It connects via Qualcomm HS driver.
I don't think my phone is fully dead.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue?
I have searched on this issue. Results are for htc phones or the other ones. No help for i8050.
I have win8 64 bit and Ubuntu installed on my pc.
Could anyone give tutorial and needed software or scripts????
