no roaming on J7 SM-J7108? - Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers

hi Everyone,
I purchased this version of J7 and there is no roaming on feature? I took the phone overseas and it was radio-silence. I was wondering if there is a rom that I could flash onto this phone to make it compatible with the other countries?

Maybe these threads can help ..... ?

I don't advise if it's a locked version.
Korean Version
I have the 16gb wifi version as well. The touchwiz versions are slightly different. The Korean version does not have the option of having quick launch icons on the lock screen.

It's a very very late Reply...
I am using SHW-M480W too.
It is a Wi-Fi Only model. (3G model : SHW-M480S/K, LTE model: SHV-E230S/K/L)
Anyway, Global version ROM is compatiable, but Kernel is not. (Flashing Global ROM and Reboot -> Stuck at GN10.1 Bootlogo.)
So, you should flash "Converter" zip. (I found it in a Korean forum.)
or you can edit Ramdisk to make the Kernel work properly.
Can you help me?

I am very curious to know if a Samsung sm-j700f stock firmware can be flashed over a Samsung sm-j700h? They both have the same processor... And specs...
I apologize if this question has been asked already...

No you wont be able to use 4g as its hardware is 3g. Buy yeah you will be on latest security patch
For that root your phone, flash twrp via odin then take a full backup of your rom, then find your firmware somewhere here in xda and flash it via twrp

Sorry to bring you bad news but what you trying to do isn't possible,
at least from what I've gathered.
I'm on the same boat and am really upset that Samsung makes things harder
every year and this time around CSC is totally different now.
Please let me know if you find any good news.
Switch to the canadian model and you'll have everything but root, i'm sure theres plenty of people that will do a straight swap.

download the rogers firmware from sammobile and join batstock rom telegram support channel. The OP can help you out. All you have to do is upload a file from the download there and he'll add the csc to a flashable twrp zip that you can install to fully enable all rogers features.

right, last time I say this, you need to flash your rom with the csc for rogers... sam mobile has it, batman rom op can help you install it.
A rogers csr will never help in this regard... :silly:

I got bad news for you. VOLTE and Wifi calling only works on android phones that has been bought from Rogers. I have the unlocked version from Samsung.ca and it still didn't work.
Correction: The only unlocked phones that work on Rogers VOLTE and Wifi-Calling are the iPhones.

i see.
next thing you want to try, make sure your build.prop product name matches that of the rogers phone.
also, my carrier disables feature if it detects root such as wifi calling. if you have magisk hide and an app for wifi calling uou may want to try hiding those apps from root.

I already called Rogers tech and VOLTE and WIFI Calling don't work on Android phones that was not from Rogers. No matter what you do, its the IMEI number that triggers their system to enable it on their end.
Unfortunately all carriers including Bell, Telus, Fido, Virgin and Freedom Mobile do this.
if it trully is incompatible, it is more likely to do with the difference between th band availability between the international model and canadian model... a quick google search will allow you to compare band availvility between phones and what bands are used for the carrier.
i don't believe it though, that just makes it hardee for them to aquire clients with existing handsets.
