Hi,
I just bought a galaxy a3 2016 for my cousin as a birthday present. The thing is, that I live in Germany in he lives in Vietnam. So when we opened it, it requested an unlock code. I know there is the method of using the phone in Germany first, but I'm in Vietnam now. Is it maybe posible to get rid of the region lock by flashing a vietnamese stock rom?

Hey everyone,
I live in Turkey and I bought my N9005 from Germany (Saturn-I think it is DBT version)
I contacted samsung.de and they provided unlock code for region lock.
and it is officially region unlocked.
I've been waiting for kitkat update for DBT version but nothing came online yet.
So here is the question,
What happens to my "unlock", if I flash poland or any other FW via Odin to my N9005?
will I need to contact samsung.de for a new unlock code , which takes 10-15 days to get one.
or it will stay region unlocked after Odin flash of any FW (european)
Thanks in advance for the answers.
Hi Guys,
I have bought here in Israel a i9505.It in in 4.3
Just root it and installed CWM.
If i look at the box, i can see that it is coming from Europe (i don t have the sticker with region lock but i have a list of countries...)
I can''t know if it was region lock or not but it working with no issues with my Israeli SIM card
My question : if i upgrade to an official 4.4.2 ROM, will it be still region unlock or will it be lock ?
Thanks dor your help

Can i use an european version of galaxy s5 in Argentina with a sim of a local carrier? i have got an european s5 (never used) and i would like to gift it to my brother that live in Argentina...
Thanks all.
Hi ebisco,
Samsung sometimes(often?) region lock their phone, which means if your phone is region locked then you would have to use it in Europe to region unlock it before using it with an Argentina SIM card, or pay for it to be region unlocked.

Hey Guys,
I received my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Duos yesterday and immediately installed after the first setup the available update for Nougat. I tried to get the preinstalled Samsung Pay working, which should be available in my current location (Switzerland). I noticed that the samsung pay app is completely chinese so I started digging for the country of origin of this specific device.
I was a bit baffled that sammobile doesn't list the buildnumber of the firmware which is G935FXXU1DQCT. When I looked up the CSC code (*#1234#) it is showing me G935FZZT1DQCT. I read that ZZT should be the country code but I couldn't find anything about that code.
Can somone tell me which country of origin my device has? My previous Galaxy S5 Duos was UAE.

I think that ZZT is not country code. Take a look this
My product code is XID, means my country name indonesia. On that csc not even write xid
EDIT:

Hi everyone,
Some friend of mine recently gave to me a Samsung Galaxy A7 2016 (SM-A710FD) which he bought in Singapore back in the time he worked there. Now he's back in France, I wanted to make it usable in France but the French CSC (XEF) I need is not contained in the ROM installed on this phone (of course).
Since this model has never been sold in France (and not even in Europe actually, bar two or three countries), is it possible to get this CSC? Is there a ROM here that I can install which would make the trick?
Thanks in advance for you answers
