Unfortunately, this 70 character limit is coded into the Korean operating system and I haven't found a way to get past it... yet. The Chinese appear to be cooking up a custom ROM that uses the American operating system as its base which could get around that SMS character limit, will update when...

Congrats No problem, glad it worked for you, if you figure out some new tricks for your phone, be sure to let me know.

Continuing on from my earlier post on how to make the Korean Galaxy Note work in Canada, I'll continue on some troubleshooting you can do with a custom firmware I found on KOXDA. First, make sure you have a nandroid backup, if not I'd recommend following the guide I made here to install CWM...

Excellent point, I remember reading this on the Koxda forum, but I didn't bump into this particular problem myself. For my phone number, the information was under settings --> about phone --> status I remember reading that the easiest fix was actually borrowing an iphone and with its...

I'd suggest flashing the tegrak recovery file for the E160S followed by the samsung160recovery, which should give you CWM at which point you can update CWM and root the phone. However, I have no idea if it'll work, so make sure to have a stock ROM on hand in case things go south for you.

It seems to have worked :D Thank you so much, the start screen now has a pink logo instead of the normal samsung splash screen but I don't care :D Edit: My happiness was a bit premature, although the phone now starts up and most things work, the home and return keys do not respond though they...

I don't know which is the proper stock rom :( I also can't read korean so finding it has been a struggle

My galaxy note won't stop restarting itself I tried rooting the phone, unfortunately I used the wrong ROM file and ended up flashing it with the root ROM for the i717 AT&T model. The phone is actually the SHV-E160L model and I tried downloading the E160ROM. The phone keeps showing the...
