Hi

I did a hard reset last night on my note 3 and now it is stuck on Chinese settings for location.

What do I need to do
 
Um, change your location settings to South Africa?
 
It was changed via the sim card settings to south africa still no luck.

If I do it manually it only has Harare and Jerusalem in it no Pretoria on the time zones.
 
Not time zones, set that to automatic.

Go to settings, My device, language and input and set to English (South Africa).
 
Did you buy the phone outside SA? Custom ROM? Chinese fake?

Anyways either of those should still work better than Chinese.
 
I'd just do a factory reset again (assuming that's what you meant by "hard reset") and choose English SOUTH AFRICA at the initial start-up screen.
 
I might have screwed it up, as I held the power button in and erased from the Prompts that came up there.

I have done a factory reset now and I still don't get the English South Africa.
It selects English on its own.
