Hi guys I was got in a trapped situation when I bought a S3 International GT-I9300, but receive a T-Mobile SGH-T999 model, the problem is: all apps under language O.S., like S-Voice, Navigation, TTS, etc..., don't understand or speak Brazilian Portuguese.
It's possible to extract a language pack from S3 International and apply into T-Mobile Stock ROM ?
I am moving this out of Development because it is not, and moving it to Q&A. You might want to see if someone can help you in the International forums also. Might actually be a better resource (maybe not though).

Thanks.
XDA People,
(Sorry for my bad English). I am in the way to change the ROM in my TMO Galaxy SIII device. I don't live in the States, and a friend sent to me this phone. But, I feel this device has a few things I don't like (missing fm tuner, impossibility use of Samsung Dive, and others). I came from a Galaxy SII international, which had this tools, and Tmobile, for whatever reason, drop off many features.
The question is: Can I use a ROM who give back this capabilities of other Galaxy SIII models? I understand that if I use, for example, Cyanogen for TMO, I will be in the same route again... without the mentioned features.
If I can choose, I pick the international version of Galaxy SIII, but putting a ROM for the int'l device... will broke mine?
Thank you in advance.

Not sure about the other questions, but do not install any international rom on your phone.

The FM tuner, Samsung (not T-Mobile) didn't include in (at least the US variants) the phones. No clue what Samsung Drive is, but installing a variation of AOSP will get you less (if hardly any) Samsung features - again, this is nothing to do with T-Mobile.
MT3G is correct, install ROMs specifically made for the specific phone. T-Mobile USA phones should only install ROMs for T-Mobile USA phone. If you were to get an international SIII, then install the ROMs for the international SIII.
I hope I answered your questions. I tried to answer them how I understood the question.
i dont see why we cant pull the applications from the internation version and use them here... lol

Thank you for the answers. Samsung Dive (not "Drive") in an awsome feature that let the user a complete remote operation of his Samsung Galaxy. Very useful if your phone was stolen or missing. Location of the device at google maps, complete lock of the phone from distance, and, many, many, many others (you can check SansungDive home page), and is completely free!
Unfortunately, TMO remove this beautiful chance from the original international model of the same phone. Also the TMO dialer is not good (missing videocall button) and other stuff removed (why less funcionality?).
Again, thank you all.

Ok, I see.
Why less? Why is the US always different when the large majority of the world are more unified?

Hello everyone,
I'm an utter newbie in android platform, so please accept my apologies if this question has already been answered, though countless searches I've performed did not yield any results.
I'm a non-US resident and during my recent USA visit, I've purchased two 7" galaxy tab 3's for my parents. However, to my disappointment they don't have our local language (Turkish) included in system settings and unfortunately my parents do not understand English.
I've thought of installing stock ROM with TR localization and searched sammobile for proper one. The problem is, the model number of my devices are "SM-T210R", but the TR localizations are for "SM-T210". Now I don't know exactly what is the difference between models (I guess the one with R is for North American markets), but the question is, can I safely use stock roms for sm-t210 in sm-t210r, without bricking etc.
If not, what are my alternatives?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I was looking for quite some time online for a way to get cyanogenmod on my samsung galaxy s4 mini Verizon sch-i435 and I can't find anything.
On the cyanogenmod website they have for every other variant of the s4 mini including an unofficial port for the sprint variant, I looked into porting one myself for my device but I'm not that good yet, I can't do it. Can you help me either to port it, or maybe installing one for another variant might work.
Please let me know, thanks.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Doesn't Verizon impossibly lock their bootloaders? If so, custom recoveries and ROM's will always be out of reach.
At any rate (in case I am wrong), I am connecting your thread to the forum your device experts can be found:
> Samsung Galaxy S 4 Mini > Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Please note, to respond to replies, you will need to register for an XDA account.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
Hello, im new here I searched in the whole forum for note 10 plus and i couldn't find an answer for that what i want to do.
I became a brandnew Samsung galaxy note 10 plus from my brother. He took it from Germany to me to Turkey. I have to change the IMEI number to use it here in Turkey. how can I do it and i would like to use the stock rom (I'm now on Android 9 because i won't make an update to Android 10 before changing the IMEI) how can I do it and it is possible to do that? I have an old Samsung galaxy S5 and if it is possible, then I would like to take the IMEI from the S5 to the Note 10 plus.
please guys if you can help me with that I want to use that phone I waited for it for months, hope someone of you can help me with it.
Thanks above

Sorry, unfortunately XDA doesn't allow these kinds of discussions. As stated by a forum moderator
"modifying an imei is not considered to be a practice we condone. It can lead to a lot of issues on our end if we allow these type of discussions to take place."
Any IMEI tampering/discussion/restoration is not allowed on XDA. Even for restoration purposes, despite it's usefulness, we cannot allow due to potential uses for illegal activities.
