i bought a galaxy s8 (SM-G950n) from south korea. But here, in india, i can't use voLTE. i can use LTE and other band at ease except voLTE. Then googled and found that indian csc code installation may help. But the problem is that the phone i have is single sim and the indian model has dual sim. If i flash the indian stock rom will it brick? If it bricks i can't gp back to south korea to resolve that. i contacted the korean samsung service but their help didn't work.
Give me a strong solution.

Hello I own the 920i variant and I am looking into either a ROM or some other tweak to get VoLTE working. I do not believe it's a hardware limitation so I'm optimistic.

That link is useless for unlocked phones as they do not receive carrier's firmware. I think you'll need to contact your carrier's customer service to see if you can enable VoLTE. For example, SKT (South Korea) can enable VoLTE on an unlocked GS6 after registering the device as VoLTE-capable.
Hi everybody.
I'm from Italy. In Italy we haven't got galaxy s7 in dual sim version, but i need it.
I can buy it outside Europe, through e-commerce. The problem is that the seller doesn't know the precise code of the model, he only knows that is dual sim and sim free. I would to know if there are different models of galaxy s7 duos sim free, and what are the 4g/lte frequency, to understand if it's compatible with italian sim operators.
Thank you.

There are 2 that i know of.
SM-G930FD - This is the "European" model, u can install Single Sim ROM and Dual sim will work ( faster updates from samsung )
SM-G9300 - Chinese / Vietnam version , no Google Play and some Chinese apps .
About bands, read on those 2 pages
Thank you a lot.
We waiting for other utents if they know other versions.
A question: what means "u can install Single Sim ROM and Dual sim will work"? Is it necessary to change ROM to use the telephone?

No, i just did it because mine came with CSC for Nigeria. I choose an rom for XEU ( UK/Ireland Unbranded ) because they receive updates faster then others, and is closer to me then Nigeria ^^
ok, i understand.
Is this procedure invalidate warranty?

Hi,
I have a S8+ with the model SM-G955FD and was wondering if I am able to download the firmware for the model SM-G955F?
The phone was purchased outside of Australia and doesn't use the Australian (Telstra) firmware that I would like it to. I just figured they are the same phone just different model numbers so there shouldn't be any issues right? I might just lose a couple features or something but the phone should work correctly?
Thanks in advance.
Yea, the G955FD is the dual SIM Exynos variant, right?
I'm sure the dual SIM uses the same firmware as the single SIM, so you should have no worries flashing Aussie firmware.
But I would suggest you flash the XSA (Aussie unbranded) firmware, not Telstra firmware. You'll lose nothing, but you'll get faster updates.

I thought as much, thanks so much for clarifying. I will download the XSA firmware as well.

Hi there I am a silly person who purchased a Galaxy S8+ from Kogan which is flashed with Emirates firmware
Its model SM-G9f55FD G955Fxxu1AQL5
No VOlte and Samsung pay etc
I need to use Telstra network (im rural but in a VOLTE area) and so I need to flash it with Australian Firmware so it gets all the local features.
I would just like to know how I know what chipset to use - I dont think its snapdragon
And where to get the firmware.

Here's the XSA (Australia) firmware:
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=0C53FCC1D0CA11E7A5F9FA163EE8F90B
Flash it. Doesn't matter if your device is G955F or FD, the ROMs are exactly the same.
Does the method works with G955J SCV35 model? I'm running NTDocomo firmware on KDDI model to unlock network (single SIM) . I wan't to flash unlocked U firmware but getting scared that the phone will be bricked.
I bought an unlocked S8+ from a website. It is from Hong Kong, dual SIM, the model number is SM-G9550. I am using it in Australia. Now there are two things that I cannot do with it - VoLTE and Samsung Pay. Also the Android 8.0 upgrade is still unavailable for SM-G9550, which is crazy. All mobile carriers in Australia has pushed Oreo upgrade but I cannot get it.
If anyone can help me with my questions here:
1) Can I flash an Australia firmware to my handset? If it is possible, do I have to root it?
2) If it can be flashed with an Australia firmware, is the dual SIM feature still available? I ask because all phones sold in Australia (except those on website and apparently overseas version as mine) the dual SIM feature is banned/locked because the telecom companies don't want to allow competition, and ACCC (the consumer council) is just a puppet.
3) If it can be flashed with Australia firmware, can I turn the VoLTE on? At the moment, it cannot be turned on as there is no such an option in the Settings.
Thanks in advance!
I'm sorry to tell this, but you simply can't flash anything other than the chinese software on this phone. There are two CSCs available for the g9550 which apparently are CHC (open China) and TGY (Hong Kong) according to updato. Both aren't on Android 8 and I'm not sure if they ever will be.
So:
1) No you can't. Australian providers make their software for the australian model (which is the international) G955F.
2)-
3)-
So to look the truth in its face:
You might be better of selling this phone and buying the international g955F, which is compatible with australian firmware. alternatively there is the G955FD, which is dual sim, but (i just googled for 2 minutes so could be wrong) there also is no official australian firmware. What you can do with the g955F/FD is rooting, which could perhaps give you the possibility to flash an australian CSC to the FD, if you really are thinking about buying one, someone could sure give you the answer to if its possible or not
Folks,
I have Galaxy A8 UAE version in the USA with MNVO SIM-card which is working on T-Mobile network. Of course VoLTE and VoWiFi features are unavailable on my A8 because it has wrong CSC (which is XSG). As I understand I need to change CSC code to add the features to my phone. But... as Galaxy A8 is not released in the USA there are no A8 ROM with CSC appliacble for the US. I'm wondering if there are any other ways to change CSC to one which will work with T-Mobile VoLTE (my previous Nokia 6 US-version had both features working fine with the same MNVO SIM). Could someone help me with that?
Follow the directions it works
Unfortunately this has stopped working.
