I had european version moto x play single with build number LPD 23.118-10 and system verion is 23.21.10.lux_reteu.reteu.e n.EU retin. Now tell me please what are the procedures to work dual sim along with marshmallow update,which firmware i want to use and how, please tell me frnds.
Hi,
So I was speaking with Samsung regarding the Dual Sim feature on UK Smartphones, and they said.
"The facility is there but the current UK software does not support this at present."
That would indicate that it's the UK firmware software, does anyone have a link to a firmware or can advise which firmware's support the dual sim capabilities.
My current firmware is : MMB29K.G935FXXU1APF2
I'm not sure you got correct advice from Samsung on this occasion. In order for dual sim to work, it needs hardware support & none of the European models officially sold has it.
As for software/firmware, I think firmware is not different for 935F & 935FD. Both are same.

But the International firmwares come with the "Sim Manager" built in to support dual sims and the UK firmware doesn't come with that.

That depends on whether your hardware supports multiple sim or not. Your firmware will automatically enable "sim manager" based on hardware.
Just to confirm you, my build no is exactly same as yours so underlying firmware is same for both of us, but my hardware has dual sim capability, so I see that "sim manager".
Here's a screenshot of my build attached.
Hello fellow S8 users,
I've recently purchased a Samsung S8 SM-G950FD from eBay as I wanted the Dual SIM capability. Version image attached, I'm not entirely sure where it's from.
Unfortunately the Samsung Pay version on the phone is in Chinese as are the promotion, images attached.
Can someone tell me if it's possible to get the Australian version on Samsung Pay on this phone?
Can I just update the ROM to an Australian version? If so, would I end up losing the Dual SIM capability?
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Any suggestions?

Your Australia cards should work as Australia already have support for Samsung Pay. I have setup few of my Indian cards with Australian version phone. I guess you need to bear with the Chinese though. Updating XSA room will definitely disable the Dual sim option and I am not sure 950FD support 950F.

Yeh the Samsung Pay Application doesn't like my American Express Card....
It states that Amex is not supported in my country, but in fact it's working on my Samsung S6, and my Gear 3.
So you think changing the firmware to AU I would lose the Dual SIM capabilities?
It might just be easier to try and get the Samsung Pay and Samsung Pay Framework from AU ROM and extract it to mine maybe?
If it's anything like the S7, you should be fine putting the Australian firmware on it. I got an S7 edge from the UAE and had to flash German firmware and the T-Mobile CSC to it for spay to finally work. It'll be trail and error, but the multi sim function never went away for me.
Since almost all the international S8/S8+s are on the multi CSC ROM, all you need to do is reset your phone (preferably from the recovery menu) and put in the Oz SIM and reboot. All the regional features are activated, and you get Oz SPAY.
Using that method, I am currently using the India SPAY on an Afghanistan S8+ (Dual sim) and Taiwanese S8 and both work with all cards.

I've actually tried to restore to factory setting 6+ times with an assortment of sim cards from Vodafone, Optus, Telstra, Macquarie (Telstra variant), samsung pay keeps loading up as Taiwanese version (Chinese)...
I've recently asked a friend to extract his Samsung Pay & Framework.apk, it still loads Taiwan Samsung pay.
I think it's region locked?
I'm going to try and restore to XSA Firmware, apparently this worked for the S7 guys, whilst retaining Dual Sim functions.

Thank you! You've just reaffirmed what I actually just read in another forum, going to give it a try and will update my findings.

Did you try to factory reset from recovery? Vol up + Bixby + power, wait for few seconds it goes into recovery. Put the regional SIM in, then reboot. It will reboot twice and activate SIM specific features (prominently tells you that it's doing so).
Also please post a screenshot of the Settings->Software information screen (Service provide SW ver. is 2nd last row) both before and after you complete the process.
Someone recommended me this solution after I had a similar problem with my UAE S8 and flashing other country firmware no longer works without supporting SIM card. Download Samsung Pay version 2.7.03 and try that.

What do you mean flashing other country firmware no longer works without supporting SIM card ?

Means that it doesn't matter which firmware you flash if you don't have the country's sim card because s8 will default back to factory CSC. Only way to change CSC without root is to flash with the supporting sim card installed.

Just came across this post. Wondering if the same method works with the dual sim version of S7 (G930FD)?
Thanks.

Has anyone here got the Australian Samsung Pay app onto the Taiwanese dual-sim model? I purchased an S8+ at $799 (compared to the RRP of $1349) but I don't want to factory reset if I don't have to.
Anyone got spay working? Pkease share what firmware version are you using.
Hey guys,
I am currently on Samsung S10+ in Canada, which has a single SIM and unlocked. As I need a dual SIM now, I am planning to sell it off and get an international model with dual sim.
My question is: Do I need to change the new phone's firmware to Canada to get OTA official updates? Can it be changed?
Thanks!
The answer is no. You cannot flash the Canadian firmware on the international version. For starters, the international version is Exynos chip. Also, Samsung Pay will not work in Canada with the international version.

Thanks so much for the reply! So what about updates? Will I still be able to get them without changing the Firmware (as you mentioned I can't anyways)? Yes, heard about Samsung Pay, but I don't use it much so that should be ok. But I wish we had an option for Dual SIMS here in Canada
Thanks again!
You will not be able to get Canadian OTA updates. You will have to download international firmware releases compatible with your device and flash them.

You will get updates normally but not same as the Canidian model. so if local s10 get update dosent me you will and same way other way. When ur model code has an update you will receive it ... so dont worry u can buy and you will get OTA normally ... or you can flash other FW on it but i dont know about snap and exn .. I always flash my Brazilian s10+ with eurpian verison and leave HOME CSC so SamsungPay still brazilian.
Since the EU version of the OnePlus seems to work with Dual SIM.
Can we flash the US version with the EU OxygenOS and be able to get Dual SIM working in the US?

Actually, this is what I did. Using US Version (Model: IN2025) and then was flashing with the EU Oxygen OS Version 10.5.4. After the flash, the update to Oxygen OS 10.5.6.IN11BA automatically was retrieved and installed.
Two things are surprising to me:
- I was expecting that after 10.5.6 upgrade, dual SIM should work, when limiting the network to 2G/3G/4G. However it still shows that the dual-sim function is not working.
- I thought that flashing the US device with EU, would also change the model from IN2025.
What am I missing here?
Thanks & Best.
dont think it works like that
you risk bricking it by cross flashing firmware

I was using this post -- and no issues. :angel:
OnePlus chat support told me that only configuration and software is different between the regional devices, hardware is all the same.
However it also didn't solve what I wanted to achieve - dual-SIM and (at best) also European bands - like n78 ... :crying:
