[Q] concerncerns about Unlocked Samsung Galaxy Note n7000 from the Far East.

[Neil71]

Hi All....Firstly I apologise if I'm putting this thread in the wrong section but as a novice please forgive me...

I am thinking of buying the N700 from panamoz.com as it's cheap but they have said there units are imported from the far east and there for cannot guarantee if they will work in the UK...

so my questions to the forum are:

1. If a phone is unlocked wouldn't it work if I put a T-mobile sim in it?
2. as the phone is shipped in from the Far East some Eng(UK) apps won't , work or be available in English UK...if not is there a way to configure the phone for them to work...?
3. Would I need to Install Mobile phone specifics configurations in order for the note to work??

Thanks for your help in advance..

Neil

1. If it is factory unlocked then you should have no trouble using your UK T-Mobile SIM in it.

2. I don't see why any app wouldn't work on it, never encountered such an issue with any Android device I've used. If you do get issues then there's always custom roms .

3. You may have to set up the APN settings if you keep the stock foreign ROM, but that is easy and takes a couple of seconds with a single Google search. Of course custom roms generally have huge APN lists built in and would have your necessary configuration.

Hope that helps.

Remember to make sure it is an N7000 and note an I9220. They are different, albeit slightly.
