There is a possibility that all Frontier models use identical hardware with the only differences being the software. (ie. SM-R760 vs SM-R765)
Could the R765 firmware be flashed to a bluetooth model? (anyone willing to try?)
I'm interested in this because in my country we can only buy the bluetooth model (and it costs the equivalent of U$500) but I would really like to have standalone call capability. If the hardware (e-sim and LTE radio) is there, perhaps its possible to enable it.
Dont do it! Someone has already tried it and it messed up his watch. The US R760 software has a different csc file so that Samsung Pay gets installed.

Hello agian,
I tried to get my samaung pay to work, pressing the back button for 1 to 2 seconds, did not work, I don't have the samsung pay on the gear app either. I am assuming I have the international version as I dont live in the US or Asia so is it that? Or the fact that I don't have Samsung's phone?
Will the international ever get it? I was completely unaware that my unit might not have samsung pay. Cheers.
I think the international version may be gimped intentionally and might not ever support SPAY.
Is it possible to install the samsung pay app on the gear s3 international version? Do you know if it works? Or it first chech the CSC of the device before running to make sure its a supported country version?
Samsung gear s3 India will get Samsung pay in few days which i assume is an International version
officially lauched on march 22nd, but yet waiting for update. they said a week or two.
watch this youtube video. sorry, i cannot paste url. so i am just pasting the code.

I've seen a variety of conflicting reports online so I wanted to get some more expert opinions from XDA:
If I buy an international Galaxy S7 (specifically, the G930F):
(1) I'm in the US. Will I be able to use that on AT&T's LTE network? I know some bands are supposedly different but I've heard that's really only a problem for T-Mobile's LTE.
(2) Does Samsung Pay work out of the box? If not, is there a way to easily make it work while still being able to take software updates?
EDIT: Looks like people have got it working by flashing Australia, Germany, or UAE CSCs and then sideloading Samsung Pay. Which leads to another question…
(3) What disadvantages are there to being on a different CSC than your actual country? Will it be a problem downloading apps, regionally restricted videos, etc? And will Samsung Pay break after phone software updates?
Answers to these would be appreciated!
I am considering buying a s3 frontier on a private seller app (5miles). I am on sprint and the watch came from att. I don't have any intentions on using it to make calls from it, other than when my phone is on or around me. Should I have any issues with this? Also, is there anything I should be careful of?
IMHO if you not use or not need Modem function...
Then maybe better to buy SM-R760...
You have more support in community...
SM-R765 is bad supported from S.msung...
Example 1.
None of these devices have now Tizen 3 Firmware update...
Example 2.
If you trying something to repair at home...
You have no Software nor any other kind of help for SM-R765...
Only as info.
Is only my opinion.
Best Regards
Hi eveyone,
Can anyone confirm if the Gear S3 can indeed be unlocked and if so can it be used on other carriers? I think as long as the carrier supports e-sims it shouldn't be a problem but i've been reading conflicting info like this: https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/143724#631813
Any info would be appreciated.

Since Gear S3 release, no one managed to use it on other carriers. Even if you get an unlock code, other carriers are yet unable to insert the e-sim code into their line.
So the answer is no.
Regards
As I know now,
all of Korean and USA version ARE carrier locked,
And Only Singapore version is carrier FREE.(I'm not sure, the next week when I receive the sm-r765f coming from Singapore, I can report if it's )
AND slapshot2286 unlocked his at&t version Using the code from at&T.

But register other provider' profile to built-in esim, you need a QR code(maybe it's an URL of server where contain the profile for download? Not the contents of profile? Anyone know about this plz reply me, many thanks) to scan! Lol providerS at Tokyo doesn't supply QR-Code to scan NOW.
One more important thing, you must confirm the BANDS(3G/LTE) of gear s3 is compatible with the carrier which you want to use.

In the UK, I have a S3 Frontier, and I have used it on Vodafone, EE and 3, just by running the usual pairing and setup (as if it were new). It appears I can use it with whatever network the phone is on. So far I have done it with 3 phones, on 3 different networks, and it works fine.

Hello everyone
Just wander to know whether anyone have the Chinese Version firmware which is flashable for galaxy watch 4 classic SM-R890, because the firmware code for chinese version is R890 ZCU1XXXX, not XXU1XXXX, and it has huge different between ZCU and XXU, and the CSC code for China is CHC, Hardware Code is R890NZKACHC
Any help and/or resources will be appreciated
Low chance...
We have EVA8... old Firmware for International SM-R890...
Please can you give more infos why you need chinese Firmware?
Device dead? Halfdead? Or for study?
If you like "adventures"... MAYBE EVA8 from SM-R890 work...
Then CSC is set to XAA USA...
For me XAA CSC makes trouble with my WiFi Network... I am from Germany.
If XAA is active. I can NOT connect to my Network...
Best Regards
I just flashed the EVA8, but it does not allow me to change CSC code
I use the watch in standalone mode, then enter *#272*719434266344# but it does not show me the CSC change screen.
CSC should be XAA now.
You can update to latest Firmware via FOTA over the Air?
EVA8 work so far for you?
CSC change is very close to impossible at the moment.
I can do this only with Root... and this require USB cable... and kill Knox Warranty Bit...
Best Regards
All work for me, but how to root it? where you get the USB dock?
USB Pinout is here:
