Dear all
I have an honk kong version of note 5 SM-N9200 duos, dual sim,
I like Samsung Keyboard but i hate handwriting recognition, it's not possible to select it in italian language,
there is the possibility to change handwriting recognition replacing english version with italian versione (maybe note 4 handwriting recognition)
Thanks in adavnce.

Does anyone know which Languages the S Pen on the note 5 can handle. I.e. can it handle European Languages like Norwegian, even though a localized version will not be sold at the moment?
I am a Japanese who lives in Thailand.
Note5 sold in Thailand is SM-N920C, and cannot select the Japanese language.
Then, does someone know how to add languages (Japanese language etc.)?
Hi,
Anyone know the diferences between the:
N920 vs N920i
N9200 vs N9208 (dual SIM)
All of you who have one of this, can you choose any language to the OS? (for example Portuguese in my case)
Thanks

There's no such thing as the "n920". That's a generic term used to group all the variants together. The actual models are SM-N920xy where "xy" is replaced with 1 or 2 characters to denote a variant. Different variants are sold in different regions and/or carriers. For example:
A,T,V - US (specific carriers)
C - Seems to be Mid/Far Eastern countries including Arabic regions, Portions of Russia, Vietnam.
I - Seems to be for Oceanic/Pacific regions (Australia, New Zealand, Singapore?, ?)
G - India
0, 8 - dual SIM models.. not sure of the regions
I've also seen X, KOR, R4, and others...
The differences between model variants tends to be different modems (radio frequencies supported) and different firmware preloads. Some models (A/V) have locked bootloaders. As mentioned, some variants have dual SIM support.
Thanks.
What about the language of the OS? Is OS multi language. I'm asking this because there's is no Note 5 released in Europe, and I want it in Portuguese.
Can anyone confirm me this?

My N9208 for keyboard and handwriting does have special menu settings for Chinese even if you select English as the only input language.

I'm not sure if I understood you right... Are you saying that even with english language chosen you have things in Chinese?
What I, also, would like to know, is if the language in the OS menus can be changed, i.e., if in "Settings/My Device/Language and input" menu it can be switched, for instance, to Portuguese language.
Thanks

Yes overall system you can choose Portuguese.
My point is that if you choose hand writing entry for the default samsung keyboard data entry (as opposed to qwerty) the input pad seems to assume you will enter Chinese characters irrespective of the keyboard input language. It is annoying.

So in handwriting it doesn't recognize "western" letters, isn't it?... Awkward...
hello i have the Note 8 SM-N950U T Mobile i want to put on my phone Greece Language..how can do this? i try from language and inputs but is half of them are Greek and the other half English how can put only Greece?
I don't think you can... The FW for US Note 8s is limited in the available languages, as opposed to full language support in international versions.
Hi. I have recently purchased a new Note 9 N9600 from an eBay seller in Hong Kong.
There are a few of issues:
1. Coming from a Note 8, the display on the Note 9 seems to be quite blue in comparison. Where whites appeared to be slightly warmer on the Note 8, it is noticeably more blue on the Note 9. Is this normal?
2. Despite setting the language to English during intial setup after first boot, there is still a lot of chinese on throughout the UI. Is there a way to set everything to english?
3. Despite being the same keyboard app, the keyboard layout is totally different to my Note 8. Is there a way to change the layout?
Thanks in advance!

Turn off blue light filter two finger swipe down you will see it there and if you go to settings then screen mode you can change the cool and warm!
Have you tried going into settings general management, language and input, Language to download USA OR UK or where ever you are to set it to that?
Keyboard is in the same spot as language and input select keyboard from there!
I can confirm that the keyboard on the HK N9600 is slightly different to other Note 9s.
When you switch to symbols, the keyboard looks more like a T9 dialpad. No way to change that.
I solved this issue by flashing to the southamerican firmware (Brazil for example).
There are other minor differences in the HK firmware as well, for example you cannot change the sort order for your contacts in the phone or contacts app (first name, last name)
Also resolved by flashing it to south american firmware.
And there are also still bits of Chinese, for example in Bixby or Bixby vision. The language there seems to be connected to the CSC of the phone.
Since there is no pure English variant firmware for the N9600, I have only managed to change the Chinese parts to Spanish with the south American firmware.
I didn't have the problems you outline with my 9600. English is still a national language in Hong Kong, on first booting, two language options given were Cantonese or English. Selected English and it's perfect.
Maybe it's not a HK version, but a mainland China version?
I also have the N9600 HK version (CSC TGY).
Some things remain in Chinese for example some parts of Bixby, or Bixby vision suggestions.
Thanks for all the feedback.
I actually purchased the phone for my brother after he cracked the display of his Note 8. (International variant)
The information that I described in the first post is feedback that my brother gave me but I haven't seen it myself.
At this stage, I can't confirm whether the Note 9 that he has is a HK variant or a Chinese mainland variant. How can I check this?
The Hong Kong based eBay seller that I bought the phone from is shipping what they call "Global variants" of every phone that they sell, or at least the next best option if there is no global variant. Meaning that in terms of bands and region specific firmware, they try to select the version that is as "Global" as possible. In this case, since I asked for an N9600 (because I wanted Snapdragon), I believe they shipped the HK variant.
My brother did inform me this morning that he thinks he managed to change all the language settings to English but his keyboard layout is still different from his Note 8. (I don't know how it differs because I haven't seen it yet)
Other than that. He thinks that the phone seems to be quite normal. (Comparing to the experience he had with his Global Note 8 with Exynos SoC)

Okay the response to that code was CSC: N9600TGY1ARL3
Can anyone tell me, what are the differences between the HK N9600 and the Global N960FD? (I tried searching around but the answer is not clear. )
Does the N9600 have fewer features or reduced functionality compared to N960FD? (I saw in another thread that someone mentioned lack of VoLTE on N9600. Anything else?)
I didn't do extensive research before ordering the N9600 but I had read that the Snapdragon variant has better battery life and slightly better performance this year than the Exynos variants. these are the only reasons why I chose the N9600.
I am not concerned about rooting options and assumed that otherwise, the Note 9 variants are all much the same.
