Asian firmware(P1000DXJJ1) vs Euro firmware(P1000XWJJ4)

Hi, currently i in Asia region, the asian firmware (p1000DXjj1) look like a bit crap.I know euro firmware XWjj4 is full flash,i got one question here .If i directly from DXJJ1 to XWjj4 will any problem.Andthe GPS search will be slow if flash to euro firmware?Thanks.
Mine came with DXJJ1 and updated to DXJJ2 then to XXJK5 without any issues. As for the GPS, didn't really notice any difference.
oh,is that direct from DXJJ2 to XXJK5?No need flash to XWJJ4 first?
Yes, just make sure you don't select partition in ODIN, then you're good.
EDIT: Some of my friends, from stock DXJJ1 straight to XXJK5.
Thanks,i have the issue is the TAB always rebooting.is DXJJ1 and i go to SAmSUNG service center,customer service told me that this device is new,still no have software or firmware thing.need wait for their specialist downloading.so i plan flash myself.Is that risky?Thanks.
why XXJK5? its eur firmware right?
any differences at all?
my DXJJ1 is kinda laggy though, with stock UI, thats why i'm planning to flash it
i would prefer to stay on Asia Firmware though
but seeing almost all people here in europe saying its buttery / silky smooth, maybe eur firmware is smoother than asia's firmware?
im planning to upgrade to DXJK2 though, any advice?
its only PDA flash right? no repartition whatsoever?
Apart from not selecting Partition, how about the auto reboot and F reset time options?
Do we tick or untick?
Anyone has a JJ1 tar Pda?

hmm, when you flash your firmware, stuff like readers hub, is it gone?

u may use Titanium Backup.

check if u have multiple wifi profiles. With some profiles (more than 1) together, whenever u switch on the wifi, t willreboot. This is hapeening to me and so far only me and a German user is having this issue. It would be a great help if you can confirm if u have multiple wifi profiles. Remove all but the only profile to connect to the existing wifi and see if the TAB still reboots

Does your TAB keeps rebooting with JJ2 now? Anything missing from JJ1 to JJ2?
nothing missing...cause i just brought 2 days after i use OCLF it happen rebooting.....but i think maybe this rebooting stuff is ASIA Firmware problem.I go to samsung center but look like is this stuff is new for them.They also dun no what to do.The funniest thing is they not yet download the FIRMWARE.I can't wait and try flash myself.Now phone is PDA1000DXJJ2,PHONE1000DXJJ1,CSC1000OLBJJ2.PLEASE do not select repartition.
@teh_cg
well, when you say JJ! is crap, what do you mean by that? did u got UI lag?
mine is kinda laggy >.<
especially the touchwiz
i do use lots of widget though
at least 1/2 every page, maybe more
after u flash it to jj2, did the "thing" used to be crap was better, or is it the same?
hi,justin i just noticed that after i flash to jj2 my press reader only allow me download 2 newspaper after that need to buy.i still remember jj1 time i can download free........or maybe is the sever change...how about yours??????
hm, so far i only download 3 newspaper, 2 of the same kind, 1 different, all of them in indonesia
will let you know if i can get more on the same newspaper later
AFAIK PressReader only offers 7 free downloads on initial activation. After which, you have to buy. Also i dont think they allow to redownload.
So maybe, you've already downloaded the maximum free newspapers.

ok thanks antz88C...i also remember that i already download 7 newspaper...i thought it will be free for life..........hahaha....
i see, ouch for that
btw is it normal to have lag on galaxy tab?
i did say i put a lot of widget though
anybody put a lot of widget in their tab and still no lag at all? or is it just me?
1 of the reason for me to upgrade the firmware though
the laggy inTAB i still accept....have u try out Galaxy S which is not tweak at all......u will feel it.......

Where do you press update firmware. In kies air or on the phone. On the phone I can only find Software update.

Well, if he is able to download the firmware, his prob has nothing to do with CSC. If his prob was CSC, he wouldn't be able to download it because Kies would show a message stating his device was not elegible for official updates.

Identify unsaved number (inbuilt feature)

If you head over to advanced features in settings
Or the phone app and setting.
You can enable a feature that will detect unwanted calls.
As it's built into the dialer it's a nice integration.
After recently updating my Rom this feature has now disappeared.
Just wondering if anyone still has this option.
Am wondering if there is any way to re-enable this.
Or if it's been removed from the Rom all together

I think the OP just hasn't updated his sig. He's clearly asking about the S7 feature.
OP: what carrier? My Sprint version still has the feature. The option is under Settings / Advanced features.
My T-Mobile variant had it and once the first ota came out it vanished. They will not add it back. I've been trying them for two weeks now.

Can you confirm your ROM Version.
I have now rolled back to the previous version of the ROM.
I am going to have a go at extracting this, But i wont be able to test it.
Do you mind me providing you a set of files to test when i do this?
I was not happy i lost this feature, And i will bring it back ))
Looking at it, its part of the DIaler, So first and most.
What's your Dialer version number?

Someone please give me clear answers for my new phone?

I bought G935FD from Amazon 3 weeks ago- it's unlocked and carrier-free. I've been using it out of the box, no root. Some parts of the box was typed in Arabic indicating it's from/for UAE.
I live in US and have been using MetroPCS (uses T-mobile network). It seems to work flawlessly.
1. Will I get OTA updates? I doubt MetroPCS will do it for this international version from UAE.
2. If above is no, what's the best way to get the latest updates / how do I know my phone has the latest version?
3. What are CSC and PDA?
4. I came across this link: Which country is best for me living in US? Should I continue to use the stock UAE it came with? Any advantage for other countries? (some countries get latest updates faster?)
As for updating FW- a step-by-step guide is appreciated. I've been reading up, and it involves using Odin, but there seems to be tons of different country/region versions for G935FD- and I get concerned about bricking my phone or messing it up.
So many questions.
*#1234 shows:
AP: G935FXXS1APG3
CP: G935FXXU1APEQ
CSC: G935FOJV1APF1

1. You should get OTA updates. They will come from Samsung and not your carrier.
3. CSC is your region and or carrier code that identifies your Samsung firmware.
4. OJV may not update as often as the other UAE firmware (XSG). A lot of Americans run XSG or Spanish AMO. If ya need help. You can PM me and I'll help get ya sorted.

Thanks.
1. So why XSG or AMO for G935FD users in US over hundreds of other countries? What's makes those two compatible? If I use other countries, what happens to the phone?
2. Which one do you use?
3. This is bit of a different topic, does your phone suffer from Media Server battery drain? Mine does and that's what prompted me to update my phone hoping there's a fix out (deleting/backing up pics help, but it reoccurs)

Most people use those firmwares over others because they support Samsung pay. I personally use AMO because it has the add benefit of wifi calling and and white pages. As for the battery drain issue. You shouldn't be having that issue. I know I don't experience that issue with AMO. It could be a problem that was fixed in a later patch.

Then I'll give AMO a go, that's this one right?

That's the correct one. Since you're switching firmwares use the AMO_CSC file rather than the Home_CSC file. That way it'll wipe your phone clean. Make sure youve got security PIN setup because you'll be asked for it after reset. Other than that. Just follow the instructions and it'll be smooth sailing.

Thanks. I'm learning a lot here. Getting ready to do it now. More Qs:
1. So with AMO, I can now use Samsung Pay? Is this the correct version for my phone? I presume this is not available on Google Play because it bypasses Samsung bloat if done through the phone? (if so, I need to manually update this app as new versions get released?)
2. Will wifi calling also work too as MetroPCS supports too right? (it did for my previous phone on MetroPCS)
3. This G935F firmware should work flawlessly despite my phone being G935FD right? I think I read this, just making sure.
4. How does whitepages work- AMO comes with it or do I need to download White Pages app?

You'll need to install the Samsung pay framework and Samsung pay app in that order from APK mirror website. Just read the description for the app before you download to be sure its the US version and it's compatible with the frame work. In order to make white pages work you'll need to enable it from the Phone app settings. G935F works with FD.

Tmobile firmware on AT&T S8+

So I took a chance and went ahead and flashed my ATT S8+ To Tmobile firmware G955USQU1AQEF with stock odin and I can confirm it's working 100% Wi-Fi calling, Volte, Video calling. Once i booted up it also registered my sim and proceeded to update to Tmobile firmware G955USQU1AQGA and I gotta say only bloat was tmobile app and battery life improved by atleast 40%

Can confirm advanced messaging working. I have also noticed device running a lil warm on the right side or maybe is just my OCD for perfection can anyone on stock att confirm a lil warm on normal usage but completely cold while sleeping
I ran Tmobile firmware on my S7 edge the entire time I used it. It got updated faster and had a faster speed test.
