930F in the US (T-Mobile)?

Anybody bought a 930F from eBay for use in the US? Do you change the firmware with Sammobile images? If so, what image do you use?
To clarify, I know the 930F will work on T-Mobile in the US, will run with the T-Mobile LTE bands. My concern is the language differences in the firmwares (if it exists)-- what do folks do to make the phones more US English friendly?

All you need to do is change the Language to English US and your done!
I have the stock Hong Kong firmware on my 930FD and that's all I had to do!

When you boot up your phone for the first time select English. Only issue with the unlocked version is no Samsung Pay.

the only reason I went to United Kingdom from Panama firmware was because U.K had the March security update and Panama has not gotten it yet.

MHA-L09C432B186 SIM Detection

Has anyone else experienced this with the latest update to MHA-L09C432B186
It was working fine on 182, now straight after updating to 186, every time the phone is rebooted, the SIM is not detected, until it remove the tray and insert it again, then all is fine until it is rebooted again.
Is this a known issue or something that is easily fixed?
It's clearly not a hardware issue.
Look forward to your feedback.

No, no problem with that issue. Phone is running like a charm. Maybe you should reflash.

No issues here.

Same issue here on single sim L09 B188 (just updated to C432B188). Phone info is showing sim 2 as 0000000000000 but this phone doesn't have a SIM 2 slot. Is this the problem?

You should try factory reset

I installed both 186 versions (there are 2 for the 09) and I can also say when you restart the phone you have to open and close the tray for it to work.
It started on 186. 182 was fine. I DID a factory reset and it's still the same.

The 'newer' B186 actually shows up as B188 in settings (about)!

But do you to elect and reinsert SIM after every reboot?

well, still having the problem, but im glad im not the only one with the issue.
just need to make sure i have an appropriate sim ejection tool/paperclip etc with me at all times just in case
quite stupid really, and can also affect the SD Card since that is part of the same slot

Just tried MHA-L09C432B190.
Same problem. SIM not being detected.
I ended up just giving up and rebranding back to my original region.

Same here... even i m still on august security updates.

Last Update for my CSC (DBT/DBT/DBT) was on 08/23/2017.
So I am just curious, why unbranded phones in Germany get updates much slower?

I flashed the latest AQI7 firmware available for download from ROM region, but I am currently in Germany and it has auto CSC. So right now I am on AQI7 but with DBT CSC...
Maybe AQJ1 will appear for download on sammobile.

Beta (Oreo) in Germany available

The Beta registration can be done in Members app.
I did it and it is installing.
See screenshot

good news

Go for the section "hints", it was the only one visible in my case. When selected, hit the big picture (I can't recreate it, otherwise I would have added a screenshot)

I see it too for France registration

Yea, finally

It is only for unlocked Phones, if the phone is branded means no beta.

Are we on par with the US/UK and Beta 4 ?

Rubbish. My S8 is locked on Vodafone UK and I still installed Oreo Beta just fine. All is needed is to flash unbranded firmware via Odin. Carrier lock has nothing to do with Beta program eligibility.

He probably meant that tbf, he did mention the branded firmware part of it but yes as you said the sim lock status does not matter

Hi, Is it possible to register at this moment ?

Is it possible to install the room and register?

I just did it, but still got nothing on the Members App, I don't understand...
Edit: Well, I flashed an unbranded firmware but when I check the firmware info from my Phone it says "BOG" which is the code of my operator, did I missed something ?

DBT/DBT/DBT works
First code you can change with the factory rom and *#243203855#.
Second is the active csc of the flashed Firmware.
Third depends of your simcard.
