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

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 only have it in Gear Manager because I use a US phone with US firmware in Canada. Should have bought the watch in US too!

Mine in Canada is OXA, can someone from US tell me what version you have? I believe this is what prevents us from installing SP on our watches.

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)
If I buy a US version Gear S2 sm-r720 (or 30 or 35), will I be able to use it easily without flashing or modding to use it in Canada with Samsung Pay since it will already be written to have CSC XAR?
Maybe @adpost knows?
Thanks XDA!
I have a sm-r760 I just bought with R760XXU2ESE3 installed. How can I tell if this is actually a US watch as it was sold as? The model is simply listed as R760 everywhere. The reason I'm questioning it is there's no Samsung pay installed on the watch and no way to install it that I can see. It's installed and setup and usable on the phone.
check the csc of the watch and change it to american one ... you can find the guide in here ...

Hello everyone.
I am planning to buy soon the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra but I am in a situation when I would be moving country (from France to Spain) in a few months.
It looks like the Samsung Care + insurrance is bound the the country it's being contracted for ?
Also I remember back then I had a S9+ and when I moved from Spain to France I could not use Samsung Pay anymore even after device reset, from what I remember I had to reflash it completely with Odin using a stock firmware made from France instead of the Spanish firmware I had, do you know if this is still the case ? (From what I see on the sammobile firmwares lists it looks like it's mostly an unique european firmware now instead of one per operator and per country ?)
Do you know if by luck we can register card from both country like how it's possible with iPhone ?
Do you know if the same limitations also apply to Samsung Watches ? (I remember I had to do the same back then with Odin and my previous Samsung Watch that was on Tizen to be able to register French card on Samsung Pay on it)
Thanks
I am Argentinian and brought my s22 ultra in Uruguay. They told me that the warranty was valid for three countries, Argentina, Chile and of course Uruguay. It is a carrier unlocked device, meaning that I can use it with any carrier. Perhaps you should just ask if your warranty and Care services will still be valid?
For the thing about using Samsung Pay when changing country, back then I had flash it with Odin with a new CSC.
Is this something I would so have to do if I move from France to Spain? I see that there is an European CSC for this model so I'm not sure.
Hi folks.
Last year I've got robbed in California when I was traveling with my cousin, and decided to buy one S22 Ultra, once I like so much the Samsumg Wallet app and service.
The service is working alright, however, I can not access the "Rewards Program" from Brazil.
Since I got back home in Brazil, I restored the mobile to the factory details, nothing new.
After that, realized that in "country and region" tab the country "United States" was sticky, could not change manually to Brazil.
Thinking that changing the country might solve the trouble, I contacted Samsung US, did the whole procedure they asked me (including an explicit declaration) and changed the country to Brazil. Later, restored again my phone to factory details.
Now I see that nothing changes the Samsung Wallet Rewards Programs, it keeps appearing announcements of macys and other brands in US, nothing alike brazilian program, and I actually would like to use it, like I got used to use in my last galaxy (the phone robbed was a xiaomi, had to use google pay instead of samsumg pay), one thing that inarguably made me to get back to samsung.
SHOULD I CHANGE THE FIRMWARE? I completely depleted my support with samsung.com (Brazil and US), they can not help me, they say once my phone is bought in US, it's gonna be alwase US.
Got informations about following model versions of fw: "SC-52CSCG14", "SM-S9080", "SM-S908B", "SM-S908E", "SM-S908N", "SM-S908U", "SM-S908U1" and "SM-S908W".
My phone is "SM-S908U1", but I couldnt find any brazilian firmware of SM-S908U1.
I have found ONLY the SM-S908E in brazilian version, question: IS IT GONNA WORK ON MY PHONE?
Second question: IS IT GONNA SOLVE MY PROBLEM OF SAMSUNG WALLET (appearing our Brazilian Rewards Programs [instead of americans])?
Thank you very much.
