My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S7, China, so apps like Google Play Services refuse to work, even when installed(It keeps stopping) and Google Play Store never logs in. I wanted to have the firmware changed, however,on looking at the phone's firmware, I found odd specifications.
My Samsung is an SM-9550(which is firmware that belongs to the Samsung Galaxy 8, from what I have found online).The seller's description was that the product was an SM9300 Korean version of the lock without the G930 S/L/K. I am looking for advice on whether it is safe to install the Korean firmware or an International ROM and which firmware(international preferably) will not brick the phone on installation.
Other extra specifications.
Model: (SM-9550)(dream2ltexx) 64GB
Chipset: Exynos8890
Kernel architecture:aarch64
As the title says, can I use a ROM of SM-G935F EDGE Version to my SM-G930F simple S7 Version?
I want to do this because wifi call is missing from my actual version and the G930F version of my carrier hasn't got an update since Android 6.0.0. The Edge version on the other hand, it has the most recent update, 8.0.0.
Thank you!

For using a S7 Edge rom you'll have to flash the rom. I'm not sure if it is possible, but I do not recommend it.
And you'll have to flash anyway, so why not just flashing the SM-G930F 8.0.0 ROM to your device?
Just do an internet search for "sammobile SM-G930F" and you'll find the 8.0.0 update for your device. (Sorry, can't include external links yet)
Here is some information for flashing with ODIN https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3369431

Hi all,
I'm just wondering if anyone has swapped their s8 android OS for Havoc OS successfully? And if so, could you post the steps you used to do so? I've never done anything with ROMs.
According to the site below, it is possible, and I have the Magisk and TWRP recovery apps on my phone already.

My phone's model # is: SM-G950U
I am new to the world of custom ROMs and never did this. My Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (India version, 3G, model SM N900, SSN: N900GSMH, Baseband version: N900DDUEBPF1, Software version: N900XXSEBPL3/N900ODDEBPF1/N900DDUEBPF1). I have few basic queries:-
How do I know exact model, processor, etc details of my Note 3? Since I purchased in India and that time India only had 3G phones (not LTE), so assuming its 3G only model. Also inside phone after removing battery shows above model nos
After installing a LineageOS ROM, my phone will stop receiving OS upgrades? Will I have access to play store apps which can be directly downloaded or need some workaround to download apps (my usage is regular apps like whatsapp, gdrive, youtube, chrome, etc)? If workaround needed for apps, would those apps get automatic updates or always require manual install?
Which ROM is suitable for my model? Mine is currently Android version 5.0 which is quite old. I am ok with any stable version above 5.0 If I get Android 8/9/10, I would feel myself very lucky
Please help.

it's exynos not snapdragon, you're not in the good forum..look exynos note 3
How do I confirm that mine is Snapdragon or Exynos? I googled and found that in India Note 3 was launched with Exynos and only 3G model, so I believe I am in correct forum. Can somebody answer my original queries please?
