[Q] SM-R765A - Is there any way to change the phone number that it shows?

Hi guys, pretty much straight forward question... I have the S3 SM-R765A (LTE). I don't leave in the US... so basically i cannot use the LTE functionality as in Brazil the operators still does not have implemented eSim to the network.
However, i would like to change the phone number that it shows at "About device".
Is it possible?
Thanks
If you have not been able to activate the eSim how does it even show a number?
The first owner did activate it.
I guess you tried factory reset? Also have you already unlocked it? Saludos

Hey... yes I've tried factory reset - from software and hardware. Old number kept in both methods.
Now that you mentioned about unlocking.... is it possible? Did not find anything related.
Thanks
Hi, yes, it can be unlocked. There is a thread about it.
I contacted AT&as a non customer and applied for the unlock code, received it 48 hs later . However do note that unlocking procedure for the Gear S3 is not as explained by AT&T .

what is the point of unlocking the device? the OP is about changing the eSIM ICCID/existing phone number associated with the device. How can this be done? It does not seem to be actually related to an unlocked device which just lets it work on another carrier.

Thanks for the kind response. I just need some help with the number embedded into the phone. there is no way i can find to change it. I just wanted to edit the esim info. change the number maybe add my own sim. In this particular device that information is hardcoded or something.. need a way t make it editable please
@adnshah
For this kind of adventure... research... SM-R765S SM-R765L SM-R765K from Korea is wrongest choice...
No Combination Firmware nor normal Stock Firmware...
So chance of success is 0... ZERO... NONE...
Best Regards
P.S.:
About eSIM hacking I found only iPhone info... from Chinese users...
So IMHO eSIM crap is at the moment safe enough against "experiments"...

Unlocked SM-G955U

Last year's S7/S7edge had a different model number for each carrier (G935A/T/V/P/R4), but this year they all seem to be using the 955U model with different CSCs for each carrier.
I noticed on SamMobile there's an unbranded firmware available for the G955U with the XAS CSC, what CSC is that? Generic?
The reason I ask this is that because these US variant phones get imported to Pakistan and some people buy them since they're cheaper than the officially sold G955F models here, so if a G955U gets imported here which for example was previously used on T-Mobile in the USA, if one flashes the XAS ROM, will it basically be an unbranded Snapdragon 835 S8+ or is removing the carriers CSC not possible?
All replies will be appreciated.
Cheers

The U version is locked and not able to root. It's used by all USA carriers and they probably made it locked down due to Samsung pay. At some point a root crack will surface but it probably won't be stable

I don't need root though.
Just the possibility of flashing an unbranded ROM with no bloat, something that won't be used with US carriers.

You cannot flash firmware without rooting on this device. That's my point. When you try flashing in Odin, nothing happens. That's why you cannot root or even flash things. Got it? You need root in this case.
I think we are after the same thing; xas is sprint from my understanding. xaa should be the "unlocked" carrier neutral you are looking for. There is a thread in the s8 forum where some people had success flashing parts of the Canadian firmware then refreshing parts of us firmware they had quasi obtained this but I have yet to try
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/rd-carrier-switch-root-snapdragon-t3597473
I read somewhere that only G955f models can change CSC firmware using Odin.
G955U models won't be able to... I could be wrong...
Then again, we won't really know until someone buys the U model and tries it out for themselves.

What did you find out?
What did you find out? I'll try it with mine but I need help. I am by no means a schooled veteran in the world of command lines and tech talk but I can follow direction. I've managed to unbrick a couple LGLS 675 and bypass frp (for myself) a couple hundred times. I'll post a screen shot of my about phone if you guys are interested.

im using a 955f (so could be different on your phone), but just turn the phone around, on mine the S/N stands printed on the bottom of the backside, you can slightly see it ->here<-
and also I'm really not sure about that, but i believe some Serial/IMEI/whatever-numbers do stand in download mode
EDIT: By what i've found google'in, on the 955U, just the IMEI is printed. Sorry

There shouldn't be an issue with the Korean version. Just debloat it with adb and you'll be good.
thanks ,
the seller told me that in addition to Korean bloatware there is also a booting logo, whit adb can i deblot also booitng logo? (i don't know this adb program i never used it)

No you can't debloat the booting logo, but it's literally just a boot logo. Not like you can customize it with European firmware
thanks, but how i can do if as you told i can't flash european firmware on V500N version

?? I said you can't change boot logo. Just use app inspector to find packages that you want to uninstall and debloat with adb.
thank you,
but neither in the future will it be possible to flash the European firmware on the V500N?
the two phones have identical hardware the korean model only has the extra digital tv

They don't have identical hardware because there's regional hardware locks that prevent cross flashing. They are tiny fuses which can theoretically be blown somehow in 9008 mode but that requires the firehose.
thank's you for your help

Question S908N KTC to KOO

Hello fellows
So my issue is a bit long so sorry for that
I got this phone 3 days ago
S908N KTC Unlocked ( I live in Middle East and the SIM is working just fine )
I didn't know that this was a branded phone from KTC, I thought it was unbranded KOO
So right now I want to change the firmware to KOO to get rid of the KTC Boot animation and the KTC bloatware/settings
So how should I do that ? Just flash the KOO firmware using Odin? do I need to change csc? is that risky and may trigger Knox and block the phone ?
and after that can I just flash like the middle east firmware ?
Thank you in advance and sorry for taking too long
I'm attaching a screenshot of the CSC and software version of service provider
Use samkey. Pay for a key then change your csc using it

Yes, but some users already tried and it worked. I remember reading one or two days ago about exactly this...it says it is not supported but it works. I recall it was an Exynos device not SnapDragon but should work the same

Thanks for confirming
At least it appears possible to root it and maybe install a custom rom.
I assume that only the rom builders might be able to create a solution for the N version as an installation option in a rom.
However they might not be motivated due to the small number of people having the N versions. Unless of course a few of us agree to contribute in the form of a donation, then maybe a developer can play around and make it happen. What do you think?

well, I'm not really planning to root as this will trip knox.
Any news on changing KTC to KOO? I rooted SM-S908N, installed app Phone INFO+ Samsung, but don't see a way to change CSC. It just sees KTC region. Chimera Tool also gives info SM-S908N is not supported device. So, is there any way to get KOO or at least get rid of KTC Boot animation and the KTC bloatware/settings?

I successfully changed KTC to KOO using Shell exploit method mentioned in S22 thread.
Also, yeah without root and without triggering knox.

No, you can only use firmware that is made for your specific model number.
But i can't find the firmware I look every website and can't find it ok I just bought a another phone same model can I use that one to unbrick the the some model number
USE MTK CLIENT TO READ YOUR DEVIICES FIRMWARE AND THEN POST IT. I DIDNT BACKUP MINE AND I BOOTLOOPED IT. I NEED STOCK ROM TO FIX MINE. IF U NEED HELP ILL WALK U THROUGH IT.
