Hello, this is S7 edge forum, the one you are asking about is s7 , here is the link to your forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7
Btw, you should be able to install playstore manually without any problem or reflash latest chinese open market firmware using updato or sammobile, then again try installing playstore manually, as for as language problem, i will give you screenshots and tap the choices accordingly to choose or add language.

Hello shah
Thanks for your response and heads up.
My problem is not general language setting, that is already set to English US. All I have well most is Chinese stuff and words on the folders in the menu like WeChat, Alipay, Baidu Map, Weibo.
I have tried installing FB, whatsapp etc.....but with no luck.
I followed some direction to flash using Odin but I got a message Re-Partition operation failed.
Can you help me further please?

Thats a snapdragon variant for chinese open market, you should manually download and install play store, you can also manually install whatsapp and fb, if they dont install correctly you should factory reset and then try again. Keep in mind that you should only flash the corresponding firmware for your model, can you tell me which firmware you tried flashing that gave error? Also tell me which android version you were before flashing and did you choose HOME CSC or Normal CSC in csc tab of odin?

You are using latest firmware already, may be try reflashing your firmware with the latest odin , it should flash correctly, if it gives error again, do emergency software recovery in smartswitch. Also that chinese language should not show in any app when you select english as default phone language. Other than the app itself changing its language to chinese, then you need to change language in that app settings.

I just tried Odin 3.12.10 got the same error.
How do I go about doing emergency software recovery in smartswitch?

Adding more languages into devices T230NU T330NU T530NU without Root.

Hi , folks .
I suggest you how to install more languages into your device. I took the cache img.. and converted it to flash via Odin.
I hope that everything will be fine. I have T530, so I could not check.
After flashing if the languages ​​do not appear immediately, you have to do factory reset from recovery.
Do not forget that after the factory reset lost data from sdcard.
Good luck!
P.S. Flash like PDA
for T330NU https://mega.co.nz/#!wU0BALgb!7V-O2jltRab18hO5hWcVN1K9WPrTwf2GpvmUSl7JKIc

Hi ,
You can try, and suddenly get. But I do not give any guarantees. The second variant is to install via Odin European firmware, for example T231XXU0ANJ4 firmware version for Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 (3G) (SM-T231) from region SEK . You may download it from any sourse (samobile , samsung-updates , etc.)
Yes of course I will try. But if the first method fail, I'll brick the tablet? Or simply don't install languages? I never modified samsung device only nexus or LG device. Thanks repey for your time.

Here you can see how Odin should look on time flash .
Hi repey6. i followed your instructions, i flash CSC that you gently give me. No italian language . so I tried factory reset (I use recovery) bit nothing changed. Are you sure that russian CSC has italian language?
Flash with odin that report: all threads completed ( succeed1/failed 0) and Pass written in green color
Have you any idea? Please
Solved: ok I had to flash new firmware (russian) with odin. Probably my previous firmware is out-of-date while your csc is the last fw. this is only thing that I can suppose. btw now I have solved.
thank's for all Repey6. good evening

Hi,
Grab the Indian firmware do you want with the International .pit file. Download also ODIN and USB Drivers. Do an EFS backup, install USB Drivers, run ODIN and put the firmware on AP, and the .pit file on PIT. Then click Start button.

Hi
Details mate..
Where are you using the phone now , India?
Is the phone working , can it connect to your carrier in India?
Firmware , you can use XAC unbranded W8
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930W8/XAC/
What CSC do you have right now , use phoneinfo app to see it , if it is a different CSC than XAC , your phone will factory reset when changing CSC , you could use firmware with the same CSC you have and that way there will not be a factory reset, as reference check this threads

Phone knox bit is not set
If the service is available in you country

Hi
Did you installed the Samsung app and followed the procedure?
For what I read i should work fine in India , if your knox bit is not set , try flashing a fresh rom and see if the problem is fixed
In Sammobile they will give you a link to the Odin version you need to use
good luck

G955f ota update

Hello, I have a problem with my SGS8 + (G955F), unfortunately I'm not the first owner ... I have FW 7.0 (G955FXXU1AQDD) .. and I did not get any OTA updates, manual check: The system is up to date. When I check sammobile 8.0 is for all countries.
Does anyone have a similar problem? My cellphone is not branding. Is some way to fix without using odin?
Thanks for any information and answer

Should work, but IDK if turkish language is included. And if you want to keep your data, make sure to use Home_CSC file in CSC section of Odin.
BTW you can check and download Samsung firmware files with Frija.
