What Region ROM is installed? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys. How can I tell what region my S6 is? Here's the software info screen,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also if I installed a different region ROM would it break the device and would it still be in English?
Thanks

Your stock firmware is of UK(O2) United Kingdom
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/106915/G920FXXU4DPJ8_G920FTEF4DPJ1_O2U/
If you flash any other country's firmware on you phone will might soft brick your phone.. i.e. You will might loss imei, signal or baseband...

Would it be ok to flash the VOD update? It's still UK ROM.

I recomend you to flash first via ODIN the latest XEF MM 6.0.1 and after throught the device update (not ODIN) install N 7.0 XEF
Worked fine for sevveral devices i flashed this days!
Some times Cariers lock devices utill the conmtract ends, be shure you dont have any contract with your Carier!

Just root it and flash any custom rom you want based on newest firmware. No point updating with 4.3 around the corner. And why update to locked bootloader if you can run a latest custom with old bootloader.
Sorry to bump this, just wondering is upgrading the baseband bring anything extra ? or it is useless and better keep old unlocked bootloader baseband and Rom based on new firmware ?
Thank u for share this rom

PD3 is the same update as PD1.
G935F Brazil ZTO stock update 26/april (214Mb), with security patch 02/abril.
PDA: G935FXXU1APD6

Latest Bootloader and Modem

N9005XXUGBPD3 - Bootloader - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572388905582803
N9005XXUGBPD1 - Modem - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572330218881461
I've put them on my own SM-N9005 and they look fine.
Usual caveats apply ... I'm not responsible if flashing these files causes the end of the world.
@jcadduono you might want to add these to your ftp site.
bumping once as this firmware doesn't look particularly well known.
I've had good service with the new BL and Modem

What do you mean by that? D1 modem is outdated ? So which one is the newest? I'm confused.

Noob question
Hello. For what is the bootloader and modem and for what is useful to use?
I use now Dark wolf marshmallow 6.0.1
Thanks
Hi @TuxThePenguin76 ,
What are the observed changes/benefits of these updated bootloaders and modems?
No earth shattering change. Is stable and I've had no issues.
New!
Latest bootloader and modem from new official firmware for TGY:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwT0le3Vxg5OQ1VmakNkc19Od2c - bootloader.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwT0le3Vxg5OWlJVTm9DWWZEOWM - modem.
Pls, advise me i am on 4.3 can i use latest BL for load custom roms like CM13 ???
I flashed but goes to black screen.
Update: Latest for EU as of now!
Modem: CP_N9005XXUGBPI1 and bootloader as well: BL_N9005XXUGBPH2.
They came straight from a stock 5.0 ROM on sammobile (Luxembourg and Spain ROM).
I have extracted them from the fw and they are flashable in Odin.
Re-upped them to zippyshare (~5mb/s speed no wait time and free) for you as a package including Odin flashtool and USB drivers.

Hey, I am having the same problem. Is your SM-J7108 HongKong version? You need to flash stock firmware to fix it, but I can't seem to find it anywhere on the Internet.

There is now an official 6.01 marshmallow available. This is the Hong Kong firmware with Google services. It works perfectly on my China Mobile J7108 which was originally J7108ZMU1APG4
It can be downloaded from http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=D1CC27F8D82711E69215FA163EE8F90B
This is brand new this month. The previous Hong Kong firmware was android 5.1.1 even though the website said its 6.01. This one really is 6.01

Its from the samfirm tool, type your model and region use BTU, then make sure auto is checked. Use ODIN to flash the files (will wipe data as you need to flash the CSC_OXM)

Home CSC will keep whatever your current one is and the beta won't be available.
I flashed the "CSC_OXM" file, IT WILL WIPE YOUR DATA! so make sure you backup anything you wish to keep!
