Hi,
does someone know if each region has its own Gear S2 versions? (USA, Europe, ...)
Would this also determine the region of the Gear S2 App Store?
Is it possible to determine what region my Gear S2 is from or currently in or even to change that?
Best regards,

Yes. Yes. No. Post the model number from "About Gear" and we can tell you what region it's from.

He meant serial number of GS2
There exist a lot of regions (for only a watch)
Hi,
unfortunately, besides the serial number it doesn't give any clue in its menus.
Thinking about how it would be possible to find out the region, using only the serial number of the Gears S2, I looked through the Samsung website and found their "product registration" site.
Each serial number of the SM-R720 seems to start with "R3AG". Or does someone have something else?
There by registering a product, entering the serial number, they would automatically associate the correct device with its region.
For the USA it is the model SM-R7200ZKAXAR (dark grey) and SM-R7200ZWAXAR (silver).
Doing further research, browsing through Samsung Europe and their registration site, I found out that they have at least 13 different regions for the Gear S2 dark grey.
Seems very complicated and annoying...for a watch...making it fun for every region to get its own update...
The last way to find out which region the watch is associated to, seems to be when looking at the back of the box the watch came in, on the sticker under "Model: ...".
The model numbers seem similar to the CSC codes but some are different.
Here is the list of the SM-R720 dark grey (ZK) and silver (ZW) for Europe (I don't know if it is complete):
SM-R7200ZKADBT Gear S2 Germany
SM-R7200ZWADBT Gear S2 Germany
SM-R7200ZKAXEF Gear S2 France
SM-R7200ZWAXEF Gear S2 France

My begins with "RFAG" in Germany
Is it possible to change the region or flash a different region firmware?
Hello everyone!
I bought a gear s2 Classic platinum (Bluetooth) in Germany
I've downgraded my gear s2 classic to pair with iPhone.
However There weren't any apps and wasn't worth it. So I updated but it only updates upto R732XXU2BOKK.
I think the firmware is not for the updates.
So my question is.... Does anyone has original gear s2 firmware for German gear s2 classic so I can flash it back to original?
Thanks and have a great day!
Another bad surprise from Samsung.
My Gear S3 Classic doesn't support Samsung Pay in Sweden as it was purchased outside of EU.
Can anyone help to change the country of origin in my watch? Please.
Bump this. I also need this if it work on Tizen.
I live in Brazil and I have a version of gear s3 from the UK. I can not use sansung pay here in Brazil. Someone knows a way to make it work and if there is also a way to find out where that model belongs.
Tanks,
Hi !
I'm living in France (yes, i don't speak english very well sorry) and i'm looking for having samsung pay on my gear s2 classic (SM-R732), and i found these instructions on the forum : https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/gear-s3/succesfully-changed-csc-to-xar-to-t3718236.
I want to change my watch in BTU or a swiss csc, but the only ROM i found is R732_XXU2BOKK_OXA2BOKK on this website (https://addrom.com/combination-rom-samsung-gear-s2-classic-sm-r732/)
Does it will work fine ?
Thank you !
I have the same problem, I thought that Samsung pay don't work on Gear S2, but i remmembred that i bought it from Spain.
