Using a network specific S3 frontier?

I am considering buying a s3 frontier on a private seller app (5miles). I am on sprint and the watch came from att. I don't have any intentions on using it to make calls from it, other than when my phone is on or around me. Should I have any issues with this? Also, is there anything I should be careful of?

IMHO if you not use or not need Modem function...
Then maybe better to buy SM-R760...
You have more support in community...
SM-R765 is bad supported from S.msung...
Example 1.
None of these devices have now Tizen 3 Firmware update...
Example 2.
If you trying something to repair at home...
You have no Software nor any other kind of help for SM-R765...
Only as info.
Is only my opinion.

December 2017...
I have none of these LTE devices in my hand...
I am from Germany...
1.
SM-R765N
I can not remember to see somewhere User with device...
No idea if not popular in New Zealand
2.
SM-R765F for Singapore... :crying:
This is the only user I know from Europe... his experiences:

3.
Experiments with LTE devices seems much MUCH harder...
No Firmware
No Warranty if something happens
4.
I can NOT remember about en masse lucky eSIM "changer" in Gear S3 LTE world...
Example SM-R765A... correct me if I am wrong... but nobody can move to T-Mobile...
SM-R765T or Verizon... SM-R765V
So why N and F Version?
No idea if you like adventures for 300 $...
5.
I have forgotten...
Article is from December... BEFORE these devices updated to Tizen 3...
Maybe this Trick is obsolete...
Best Regards

thanks your kindly reply very much, Mr. agree.
I had taken much time on eBay, to find what's the meaning of the seller's description "factory unlocked". Finally I got I need a "Carrier Unloced" Gear S3 Frontier LTE to DL international esim profile, but most of seller's "factory unlocked" is dishonest and their devices equal "Carrier LOCKED".
Bcz different BANDS of tele-providers,
Unfortunately, sm-r765A(at&t) and sm-r765T(T-Mobile) can't using docomo, and I am happy to find out sm-r765F has same BAND and can download other provider's profile, yesterday.
I readed the blog again, it's sounds that DOCOMO of esim is supported by a foreign G&D company. Maybe this means their profile is common and can be use for other device they don't support bcz not on sale. (ONLY wifi version by docomo)
Thanks(￣□￣!!

For SM-R765F Combination FT30 Firmware exists...
Maybe if somebody need for research...
OWN RISK!
Best Regards

Only as info... check these 2 Videos... attached.
Command sent via SDB Tool is:
Code:
launch_app csc-manager.csc-sim-test
Result looks like this:
Code:
sh-3.2$ launch_app csc-manager.csc-sim-test
... successfully launched
But I have no idea how usefull these infos are...
Maybe we can compare with infos from SM-R765F and maybe SM-R765S...
Best Regards

i have a SM-R765a and have a qr code for my new esim setup however not able to find any way to set it up on my watch can someone help me please ?

Can anyone confirm question regarding unlocking Gear S3

Hi eveyone,
Can anyone confirm if the Gear S3 can indeed be unlocked and if so can it be used on other carriers? I think as long as the carrier supports e-sims it shouldn't be a problem but i've been reading conflicting info like this: https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/143724#631813
Any info would be appreciated.

Since Gear S3 release, no one managed to use it on other carriers. Even if you get an unlock code, other carriers are yet unable to insert the e-sim code into their line.
So the answer is no.
Regards

As I know now,
all of Korean and USA version ARE carrier locked,
And Only Singapore version is carrier FREE.(I'm not sure, the next week when I receive the sm-r765f coming from Singapore, I can report if it's )
AND slapshot2286 unlocked his at&t version Using the code from at&T.
forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/how-to/guide-gear-s3-frontier-765a-carrier-t3537382/amp/
But register other provider' profile to built-in esim, you need a QR code(maybe it's an URL of server where contain the profile for download? Not the contents of profile? Anyone know about this plz reply me, many thanks) to scan! Lol providerS at Tokyo doesn't supply QR-Code to scan NOW.
One more important thing, you must confirm the BANDS(3G/LTE) of gear s3 is compatible with the carrier which you want to use.
See wiki:

In the UK, I have a S3 Frontier, and I have used it on Vodafone, EE and 3, just by running the usual pairing and setup (as if it were new). It appears I can use it with whatever network the phone is on. So far I have done it with 3 phones, on 3 different networks, and it works fine.

SM-R765V
Thanx.

That sounds like non LTE?

USA sm-r720 in Canada?

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!

S3 Frontier (SM-R765v) new user. Few questions...

Hello everyone, hope you are all well during this pandemic.
New to this part of xda as i just got a s3 frontier in the mail today. Good price from China
Only thing is, i am in the UK and it is a r765v model. After a little bit of digging around here i believe this is a US Verizon model. Tried changing the CSC and only have VZW as an option.
Is there any way to "debrand" this so to speak with any stock firmware/combination firmware via netodin to have more available CSC's? Ideally i'd like to change it to XAR or BTU or am i stuck with this "verizon" model?
Current software on it is R765VVRU1CSD6
Appreciate the help

CSD6 Firmware for study...
https://www.file-upload.net/download-14091066/R765VVRU1CSD6.7z.html
Yes, US Verizon Model...
IMHO no XAR nor BTU for these LTE devices...
I can not remember LTE Gear S3 for UK...
Code:
Korea
USA
New Zealand
Singapore
No idea about your skills...
But with Gear S3 LTE you are far away from easy change to other country... including eSIM..
Best Regards

Appreciate the fast reply!
I will have a play ? i was not too fussed really about changing the csc just wanted the latest tizen update ?
Regards
