Hi I bought a new 32GB white galaxy note from Expansys UK, I knew my phone was not going to be a uk based phone as in the description it said 'EU handset + UK Adapter'. When I plugged it in kies I saw something like 'csc KK5 (ATO)', I was just wondering what the ATO meant. Is it a sale code or country for Australia or Germany? If it helps when I booted the phone up for the first time the Android start up was in German. The box is all in English and from the look of the back of the box, bottom right corner you can see the different euro country codes.
So if anyone can help me please, I would appreciate it very much.
Many Thanks

Europe or UK baseband seems to work for South East Asia. Not sure about Hong Kong. I am using Europe baseband in South East Asia and recently made a trip to Tokyo, Japan and it works in Tokyo too.
So if Europe baseband allows me to roam in Japan, I would think Hong Kong is not a problem.
HK using 900/2100, should be ok if you go for europe/UK
Thanks all!

You should as around in the S4 section of the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2162
Is there any way to tell where my note came from or is it to late? I've already updated to Kl7. When I received it it was in a language that I didn't understand but I navigated through well enough to change the language to English.

I also have the same question. I purchased it off the internet, and wondered which country it was imported to from Samsung originally.
Attached is a photo of the sticker on the back on my phone. I figured "Fabrique en Coree par Samsung' is French?
Look at the last 3 digits if the software version then cross check it with the master list of stock ROM in the development thread. Mine was KKA so its from Switzerland

I'm looking for a quick answer here....
I live in London, UK,
And I've been offered a galaxy note, unlocked, brand new for £275.
What I need to know is, can I buy this and use my t mobile contract chip in this?
Reason for the question is that I called t mobile and they told me they ain't doing the note on t mobile yet.
My upgrade is due in august so in august I'll get my upgrade and sell it.
So can I do this???
my note is on tmobile uk
i bought it from tmobile uk on contract
works perfectly fine
Yes you can use note with tmobile u are in uk yes

I come off the phone earlier today from t mobile and after I showed interest in the note, he said he can put my name down for 1, as they released on t mobile yet
I just want to make sure if I buy this off someone, will it work with my t mobile chip?

Yes I'm in UK.
If this is the case, why are t mobile not selling this yet?
I got mine from phones4u but with the full monty on t mobile, so I would say yes! Also on the play store it shows it is a t mobile gt n7000, but beware you might feel you future upgrade is a downgrade after you've used it ;-)

Won't be a downgrade mate, as I'll be getting another 1 on my upgrade
Then either keeping it as backup, or selling it due to having an almost brand new 1.
Any normal person would just wait for their upgrade, but after having a play with the note, I need to get 1 asap. I've fell in love with it.
Hi guys just wondering if anyone in UK has received the ota or kies update yet?
Cheers

I tried the check for update option on my phone yesterday without joy but then connected via Kies at it was there.
It might be because I got my handset before official uk launch and was therefore imported from Europe?
i hate the way that the uk always seems to get everything last
as for OP, just checkecd kies again, nothing
Still nothing on wifi or kies, UK sucks, we give so much to many countries n always get everything last, so annoying

isnt it only Germany that has it so far?
I can tell you when this update will arrive. I'm going to be out of the country next week, I bet the update lands just after I walk through airport security and can't update until I get back. Either that or when I fly out again in July. I just have a jinx for things like this.

Ironic that there are developing and commercially marginal nations (Nepal???) that are getting Samsung love before the UK, France, Sweden, Ireland etc...
Makes me feel so valuable as a customer.
I know the feeling, another thing that is annoying is they are already talking about jelly bean and a galaxy note 2 which has a possible release date for autumn, sort of takes the Mickey a bit ay

The way global rollouts work is that they often release the software to nations with very few of the devices and see if there is a significant spike in errors/bugs/repairs and then roll it out to nations with larger numbers of device users
them avoiding the uk is a blessing because: do you want to do a firmware update to a firmware that can brick your phone?
just wait until the bugs have been ironed out and then we will get it
id much rather wait an extra month and have a decent rom than flash a half-baked rom and then go through all the hassle of getting my device repaired!
and anyway, if your so desperate to go ics - grow a pair and flash it yourself
I have a German Note (imported from amazon.de) and got the ICS update through Kies as soon as it was released.
First impression - I really didn't know what all the fuss was about.
Second impression - What is it with all these wakelocks and battery drains?
Third impression - Maybe it's a little smoother when running properly, but not chalk and cheese in performance.
I'm sticking with ICS, because it's working for me and I can't be bothered to fiddle-ass about, but I wouldn't lose sleep over any delays, especially if it means getting a better product and less fracking about trying to get the damn thing to run smoothly.
Fair points there, just makes ya wonder why they are already talking about the next update and next phone when they haven't perfected this one yet, PS I would flash roms but I had a galaxy s 1 and it's so hit and miss finding a ROM that a suits the operator

Did you try googling it?
http://www.cellfservices.com/store/unlock-samsung-region-lock.html
I asked, they said they could do it but it would take a few days to get the code, alternatively order a UK sim card from ebay, top it up and do 5 minutes if calls.
I think he means he's in India with a UK region locked phone. Getting a UK SIM isn't going to be a fix as I doubt the phone will pick up a signal from a UK mast lol

Thank you for understanding but I'll be heading to US in a day and will have a 3 hour lay off at heathrow so if I buy a sim card at airport and use it will it do the trick?

Yes or if you are good at making friends just borrow a SIM card & buy them a coffee while you do it.
Good luck.
