Does Samsung still using it?
90% yes but not sure .
Has anyone from the US, who bought the g930f or g935f confirm or deny this region lock?
Look at seal of packaging
On the seal of the packaging is noted "European sim cards only"
If that's what you mean.

Can anyone recommend a good reliable seller to buy the G930FD dual sim version S7 from?
Does the phone come unopened and sealed too?
Also, has anyone tried both sim slots with a European SIM and can confirm that they are working?
Thanks

I bought mine on eBay. It was sealed, unlocked and came with a couple extra items. The shipping was terrible, but that was more FedEx than anything.
And I've tried the dual SIM and it does work, although is pointless to me. I'm waiting for my micro SD card to arrive and can report back on that, but I don't expect any issues.
@DJGREEN1980 Bought mine via Flipkart. Good packaging and next day delivery was given.
Hello, I have the 935F from the UK, I am currently in China for a few months. When changing the brightness up and down, four lines/bars appear on my screen which then grow larger or smaller based on my brightness setting. A handful of others have experienced the same problem too with the S7 Edge (not the standard).
Samsung said I can take it to a service center or send it to them in the UK and they will repair/replace the screen free of charge, but as I'm currently in China, I don't want to be without a phone for a few weeks. I asked the Samsung service center here and they said the screen is different, please can anyone confirm this is the case? I thought the screen was the same, but the internal radio components (frequencies used) differed slightly? I am happy to pay Samsung China the repair cost as it will be considerably easier than sending it back to the UK etc, but can anyone confirm the edge screen is identical?

It's not just the internal radios: the Chinese version is the only other version of the S7 Edge that uses a Snapdragon 820 other than the US variants. And there are more differences between the SM-G9350/U/A/P/T/V/... (SD) and SM-G935F (Exynos) than we might know, and Samsung certainly understands quite a lot about their own product, so I'd advise you listen. (for example of small differences between the two that impacts other parts of the phone) the SD820 variant lacks a separate DAC and utilizes the 820's internal DAC, while the E8890 version has a Wolfson DAC.
Likely the difference is going to be the chipset (Snapdragon Vs Qualcom) however I cant say for sure if the internals are all in the same places for the S7 Edge Global Varients.
Might be worth posting in the S7 Edge forum to see if they are aware of anything?
Sorry I didn't realize there was an S7 Edge forum, could a moderator move this thread to there?
Good point, there are quite a lot of differences it seems.
Do you know if I bought a phone like the S7 Edge from Hong Kong, is it fully compatible in the UK? Would it be the 935F variant? I can't seem to find what variants are sold around the world and I know like America and China uses different frequencies for LTE, but saying that, I have the 935F and I'm picking up LTE fine in China.
I have a blurry spot on my screen, a Samsung S8+ G955FD (dual sim). I can only seem to find replacements for G955, G955F, which from what I gather are single sim phone parts. Will that still fit with no problems?
If not does anyone know where I can purchase the correct screen and digitizer from? I will have to have it shipped to my country.
I am planning to do a part replacement for my old Samsung Galaxy S7 -- G930FD.
Does anybody know if the G930F's OLED Display Assembly is the same as G930FD.
If the battery is the same, which I think it is.
Also is the back cover the same.

G930F & G930FD are literally the same device with literally the same everything (except for the FD part obviously), there's tutorials to change single SIM G930F into a dual SIM G930FD, so yes, they are the same.
G930F & G930FD both are the same devices.
Hello to forum,
I just broke my screen from my Note 20 Ultra 5G (Snapdragon) Chinese model SM-N9860
The thing is that i am in Europe and we only have international model (Exynos).
My question is this, can i put exynos display to snapdragon? And if so, am i going to have signal? Cause i've heard that the antenna paths are different.
Thank you
I know the C port PCB is likely incapable.
Check by part numbers.
I spoke with Samsung Support while ago. And I thought to replace something, camera glass and front glass and they said there isn't issue to fix US variant in UK. So I think there isn't problem to use front glass from exynos model.
If the part numbers are the same you'll be ok.
Otherwise probably not.
Have u any idea if this part is ok?
Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G SM-N986 - White (GH82-23596C) (50027164) for my SM-N9860 ?
You need to compare the P/Ns between the two variants.
Someone here may have tried it and can say for sure if it's the same variants.
A repair shop experienced in these can probably tell you too.
Otherwise don't bet on it.
Little suggestion.
If you still are within warranty period then don't repair it your self or anyone that is non certified samsung technician.
Doing so will make rest of your warranty invalid, so send it back to store where you bought it or send it to samsung and let them repair it.
In my case, Samsung mexico repair my 986U1, same case, in the country sales exynos but the part is the same, they change the internal parts because the screen not sale separately, only inconvenient is they not replace the batery like with the national devices service included
