Hi everyone,
I was wondering that if I brought a note 8.0 4g lte from US, could 4g network be worked in Hong Kong ? Do I need to unlock it ?
Thanks

If you bought it straight from Samsung, or at least not from a mobile carrier it should come out as unlocked therefore you could use it anywhere in the world as long as it's LTE compatible, but there's no such thing as a Note 8.0 LTE available and there's not even a release date for it although it is supposed to be coming out, maybe in a few months.
You could get the 3G version from the Philippines but if you're trying to get it down to Hong Kong, it might turn out to be quite expensive for you

4g? USA don't even have the 3g version yet, so no LTE for sure, if you are in Hong Kong you should know right?
Band is a main concern if you'd like to use any US LTE device in Hong Kong. It will turn out LTE won't work.
US LTE uses 700,750,850,AWS,1900,2500(TDD)
HK LTE uses 900,1800,2600
Do you think will it work?

Hi,
I am planning to buy galaxy nexus phone from US and I will be finally using it in India going back. Can someone please suggest me if the phone works with Indian networks properly.
Thanks for your time.

I assume as long as you buy the GSM version, although I know nothing of the Indian networks.
Assuming you have a GSM network you can get a SIM from in India, it'll work just fine.
Gsm network is there with band 2100mhz, I believe. So essentially it mean that device will support the band without any issuses.
Thanks again.

get the regular Note, LTE is still a long way. EE will not have the whole uk covered for maybe a year, god knows when O2 will and giffgaff paying for it.
By then u will be looking at the Note III at best or rumors of Note IV
I'm looking into getting the n5100 from Asia to use as a Phablet on the Telus network (850/1900) in Canada.
I've been looking online to confirm whether the phone is a true quad band that would work.
On the Samsung UK site (only place I found spec on the 3G version), it says it's depends on regions. And there aren't much resources online listing whether the N5100 has specific models that are quad band vs others that are not.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Where are you getting yours, if Hong Kong only LTE version n5120 unless you bought gray market N5100 which is import from somewhere else.
I just received my N5120 LTE and use it on rogers. LTE working fine I think it only work on the 2600mhz the other band is for Europe and Asia area, so you have to check with telus if they have the 2600. I also test 3g and it work without any problem but same issue, it is tri band 3g, and only 850mhz the other band is for other area.
For n5100 form Taiwan Samsung website, is said it support 3g quad band 850/900/1900/2100mhz just like my Tab 7.7, so I guess you will not have any problem using it on Telus.
They are releasing an att version soon. It will work for you
N5100 from India is also quad band (3g+wifi )

Can you tell me the country you live in.
This is needed because your phone might not support the 4G frequencies used in your country.

thanks, im in the Philippines, not really coz i do have a pocket wifi which suppports LTE and im having no problems with it. it's just that the phone is not picking up
i tried to do some research and found that my model SHV.. caters 1800 and 850 band for LTE, Smart telecom does cater 2100 and 1800, so that means that even if the phone doesnt support 2100, i should be able to get LTE through 1800 band..
thank you

If the 4G band isn't supported in Canada then there's no need for help as there's nothing to be done.
According to the spec, the Canadian 4G/LTE bands are listed. I have just resolved this by flashing a global ROM. But still puzzled why I have to do so if the bands are listed in the spec. Thanks for your reply anyway.
Probably had to do with region settings in the Chinese version of the ROM.
