I have a greymarket import S7 Duos with the CSC OJV (which is either middle east or africa depending on the source) and it still hasn't received the June firmware update. I'd like to switch my CSC to get timely firmware updates. Does it make any difference which CSC I use? Is there any that would be best based on update timeliness and/or compatibility with US carriers (T-Mobile/AT&T)?
Also, is there any way to download stack firmware images direct from Samsung rather than going through shady third parties?

India is a good option as they get updates very often , compatibility? if your phone is working fine now it should work fine with any of this...
CSC change, you have to do a factory reset
Check this thread , it shows you how to change csc or flash a newer firmware without waiting for the update (odin) BUT you should do it with G930FD firmware there they use G930F firmware , the basics are the same
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3369431
This thread says that the single sim firmware and dual sim firmware are interchangeable. Am I misunderstanding something?
As far as carrier compatibility, the phone works, but I don't have visual voicemail. Also not sure if I'm missing other features like VoLTE.
The Spain firmware has wifi calling and Samsung pay. I don't know if you can make wifi calling work but you can tweak Samsung pay for USA market.

Same here. On the FD version.. My problem is dual SIM not really working. Yes, I have two numbers and. That's about it. Data doea not work. Disabling SIM2 and. SIM1 works LTE on AT&T. No VoLTE obviiusly so I can't comment about it. With an xposed module, my Android pay works. You will most. Likely won't be able to make Samsung Pay work. I did a massive reading and can't tell you one person that was able to set it up and use it in a store . my advice to you is forget about OTA. Don't be scared about the Knox bit, trip it, and install TWRP and a custom ROM. those get normally the latest firmware in them, with recent security patches, and some of them are even OTA by themselves. You can also hey rid of tons of bloatware this way. I wouldn't bother dealing with changing CSC from Egypt to India. Since you are already at XDA I guess you know what to do.

If you boot into download mode, the phone will even display G930F as its model number. You can run F firmware on an FD without issue. As for the dual SIM working, I haven't tested it, but I did read that SIM1 has full connectivity, while SIM2 is limited to 2G/3G. You can't have two 4G SIMcards active at the same time.
I'm running Samsung pay perfectly fine on UAE firmware. Samsung pay is unfortunately firmware dependent. However, if you trip KNOX you're not going to be able to use Samsung Pay ever again. And to be completely honest, if you're not using Samsung pay, you shouldn't be using an S7; get yourself a better phone like the G5/Nexus/V10/Moto X. The S7 lacks a lot that other phones bring to the table, assuming that you don't care much for photo quality.

Would wifi calling work on US T-MOBILE?
Same question here. I'm using Tracfone and T-Mobile sim cards, and my G930FD is from United Arab Emirates. There is a Islamic calendar in the S Planner which I was unable to get rid of, so I found the UK firmware and CSC from Sammobile. After flashing those files to phone, the Wifi calling and Samsung Pay still won't work. Otherwise the UK firmware works fine, since there's no bloatware or funny stuff(like calendar from other country). Dual sim works with no issue too. Still hope to find a better CSC file for Samsung Pay and Wifi Calling.
My G930FD is a Singapore set and Samsung Pay has been available for quite a while now.
I recently flashed the UK BTU firmware, seems to have less bloat but Samsung Pay isn't available, side loading didn't seem to work either.
I flashed the UK firmware hoping to get faster security patches, so far still on July. But not sure if just me, but phone feels a bit snappier and fingerprint sensor seems more accurate on July vs June's.
Where are you all getting the stock firmware for different countries?

When you had the Singapore firmware, did you actually use Samsung Pay successfully? I have a 930FD that is for the UAE, but Samsung Pay wasn't on it and it didn't work when I sideloaded it. I flashed it to the the BTU version and was able to sideload it and log in, but it won't take any of my credit cards here in the USA. Also, the signal strength on AT&T is much weaker than another phone that I have that is made for the American market.
Should I try to find a firmware that is still located in the same region as the UAE with Samsung Pay and without the annoying bloatware the UAE mandates for their phones? Would India be good?

Samsung Pay worked when I was on the SG firmware. It also worked when I flashed the Australia unbranded firmware, even though I was in Singapore. By working I mean I'm able to add cards, make contactless transactions and so on.
So Pay should work on any firmware that it's officially available in, regardless where you use it.
I would try Australia, minimal bloat. F / FD firmwares work interchangeably.
So, due to no Gear S3 being available in Australia for some time, I ordered the SM-RF760 Model from www.eglobaldigital.com.au
I have the s7 Edge Aussie Variant. Just found out that Samsung Pay is no available on the SM-RF760 and been advised by Samsung that it will only become available and has to be activated in the country i bought the watch from!!! Can you believe it? Maybe one day I can side load a version, of if someone can help, please please do
Michael
Sorry but you can't side load it. The only way to get it on the watch is to load the csc file from Australia. I am in the same boat in Canada. Have it in Gear Manager but it won't go on the watch until Canada updates the CSC file.

Thanks Swordfish

I ask now on another forum and wait answer.
Man buy R760 from USA, now version APK7.
Pnone not Samsung. Adding russian card without problem.
SP working via NFC and MST.
Sorry for my bad english.
APK7 is the firmware version but I need to know what CSC version the Americans have. Using the procedure above, you can check and see what version you have. It won't hurt your watch to just check the version number.
Swordfish
My guess is my model number is the American version SM-R760
CSC: R760OXA1APK6 SM-R760
We have PK7 as the firmware but my thinking must be incorrect. It seems we all have OXA as the CSC value so now I'm puzzled as to how the watch knows not to install SP on my watch??
Swordfish
THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING AND SAMSUNG ARE HOPELESS, THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT TO BECOME AVAILABLE IN THE COUNTRY I PURCHASED, HONG KONG?? Is SM-R760 the USA version then?

I think, need another activation SP.
May be enabling in special menu, before buy.
May be first pairing and activation in country non USA.
May be first pairing and activation with non USA Samsung phone firmware.
I dont know....
gah samsung pay not available on my HK version of the watch. Gah is there any update on this (flashing firmware etc) to get samsung pay to work in my home country (australia)?
This is frustrating
It's the watch, nothing you do on your phone will bypass it. I'm in Canada, didn't even have the SP option in my gear app and then I sold my Canadian one and got a USA one and it installed itself on my Canadian S7 Edge (unrooted/unmodded). SP works even though we don't officially have SP in Canada (only pre-release for one bank)
Hi folks,
I just received my Z flip and i love it. That being said, i just realised it's a Korean one (F700N KOR) and despite it having my language in it, all the content provided is korean stuff (korean news, korean apps).
I saw on Sammobile that there is a version for my country but it's for model F700F.
Basically, i'd like to flash a F700F XEF version on my F700N KOR Z flip.
Would that work ?
Nope, I had a f700n as well and you can't flash it to anything else more usable in the ??, atleast not yet. I ended up returning it and buying new as I use samsung pay a lot on my watch and phone and neither would work even after sideloading ?? versions of app. You also cannot get a screen replacement or any service from samsung for any price, other international models recently were allowed to pay full 640$ for screen replacement (500 for screen 140 for cover panel) but the Korean models are ineligible
Hello guys,
in my country (france) if i import a N20U with the snapdragon processor, i know for example samsung pay and volte doesn't work and updates software maybe not in same time (and different?), my question is, can i flash a qualcomm version with a global rom intended for the model with exynos processor? and if it's possible samsung pay volte etc work like the europe version after that?
Maybe it's a stupid question but the last time i used odin for flash a phone it's in 2012 so .. ?

1) I wouldn't assume that Samsung pay and VoLTE wouldn't work - it's actually likely they would, as Samsung Pay appears to work if the phone's CSC is for a country/region with Samsung Pay, and VoLTE appears to work if the phone has your carrier's frequencies and your carrier supports it;
2) Short answer is no, you can't flash an Exynos ROM on a Snapdragon model;
3) if your goal is to get a Note 20 with the Snapdragon processor, I would suggest you also check out the thread on the HK SM-N9860.

Hope it is helpful. I would add that while Samsung Pay likely would work in France using a U.S. N20U, it would be the U.S. version of Samsung Pay, and therefore not all cards from France would necessarily work with it, as again, Samsung Pay appears to be inextricably linked to the phone's CSC (country-specific code).
That said, as you will see in the thread on the HK SM-N9860, users are reporting good success with Samsung Pay outside of HK, for example.
Would welcome others weighing in on the compatibility and pros/cons of different ROMs with the various models of Note, as my knowledge is very limited in that regard.

Just until VirtualWaver replies, that's right - because it is the HK version of Samsung Pay on that model. His point was that he was using it successfully outside of HK, in the UK.
The key differences between the HK model and the N20U you are considering (apart from US vs HK Samsung Pay) is the HK model is dual-SIM, and comes with 256 GB of storage (versus the US base model's 128 GB).
Note as well the discussions in the threads about getting 5G on the HK model, which may be problematic.

Yes, promos related to country of CSC (Hong Kong in my case) - see the attached screenshot.
I have SM-9860 imported from Hong Kong (via Wondamobile).
All works great, only Hong Kong related ads in the app instead of your local ads and it doesn't allow to use UK transport card, only Smart Octopus (HK travel card) but this is only to touch in in transport without turning on the phone - you can still touch in and pay in public transport by swapping to Samsung Pay in lock screen and authorising the payment via biometrics.
I added my UK bank card and a few store cards and they all work flawlessly.
Confirmed Samsung Pay worked in Canada too ( SM-N9860 ), however not anymore since I rooted

Hello everyone! I got the note 20 ultra in another country where samsung pay isn't supported(i didn't care because it isn't supported in my country either).
But now it is supported (perfect timing), but still isn't supported in origin country where i bought it. I've tried factory resetting with sims installed to trigger region change, didn't work(although 2 sims was installed from different countries, it could be an issue, but I'm tired of resetting the phone and guessing).
Then I tried installing my countries firmware from sammobile.com using odin. It went horrible, odin was stuck 60% at super.img and my phone turned to a brick. But installing original firmware worked and I've managed to restore my phone.
When downloading the samsung pay app from play stores it check for compatibility and then says that it is coming soon.
Tried to download it from galaxy store, but the app isn't there.
Is there anything I can do to make it work here? Am I stuck with samsung phone that doesn't support samsung pay?

You're stuck, at least as far as the phone is concerned (more on that in a minute). Samsung Pay is apparently driven by the point-of-sale country CSC, which you can't change. I have the same issue with my S9+ SM-N9650, which is TPA (Panama) even though I booted it up with a Canadian SIM. As you mentioned, the Samsung Pay app from the Play Store will check for availability (based on the point-of-sale CSC) and then inform you if Samsung Pay is available based on its availability in that country - so you won't be able to use it on the phone until it is.
I get around this by using it on my Gear S3, which has a Canadian CSC, and therefore Samsung Pay, and links to the Wearables app on the phone. I actually prefer using Samsung Pay on my watch, so the availability on my phone is a non-issue for me (except for the fact you can't add debit cards to the watch). That said, one of the reasons I ordered my Note20 Ultra from Hong Kong is that they have Samsung Pay there, so it will work on the phone, which is a plus.

Oh, no...
So if sometime in the future samsung pay will become supported in the country where I bought the phone, I'll be able to change the region of samsung pay and start using it?
And I didn't understand about that I can't add debit cards to the watch, do you mean you can only use credit cards? Cause I don't use credit cards.
God, I switched to android again after 8 years of using ios, last android phone was galaxy s(it's funny how this forum kept my account for all these years). And only thing I'm missing so much is apple pay.

No, you will never be able to change the region for Samsung Pay. Folks can use Samsung Pay on the Hong Kong Note20 Ultra because it is available in Hong Kong - but it is the Hong Kong version of Samsung Pay.
And that's correct - at least here in Canada on the Gear S3 (YMMV for newer watches and other countries - suggest you check Samsung's website for what's available on a given watch in your country), you can only use credit cards in Samsung Pay on the watch.
