I currently own an Australian Optus carrier variant of Galaxy S7 Edge (OPS) and want to install an Australian unlocked variant of Galaxy S7 Edge (XSA) since unlocked variant has recieved 2 updates since its launch but carrier variant has received none..
1. So my question is will this trip my KNOX Warranty and will it disable my Samsung Pay app use?
2. Also, if I install another country's Galaxy S7 Edge firmware that has the same model number, will this trip my KNOX Warranty and disable Samsung Pay Use?
3. Which country (code) receives the fastest new updates for the device SM-G935F?
4. Lastly, can I install a Galaxy S7 Edge firmware with a different model number? I want to try South Korean variant firmware..
You can flash any official Samsung firmware, and it won't trip Knox.
Someone else asked this earlier today: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/to-flash-generic-australian-rom-to-t3364559
Also, Samsung Pay isn't in Australia yet, and won't be for some time.
The Aussie carrier devices should get the latest update soon hopefully.

Thank you for your reply. Just one more question! I heard that if a phone is rooted, Samsung Pay app is not usable on that device afterwards so will it be the same for installing the other firmware? I know that Samsung Pay is not yet available in Australia but I would like to use it when it's launched.
Correct. Samsung Pay won't work on a rooted device.
Also, if you root, you will trip Knox. You can't use Samsung Pay on a Knox tripped device.
Even if you go back and flash stock firmware, this will not reverse Knox. This is permanent.
But if you just flash Samsung unbranded firmware over your Optus firmware, this is ok. Samsung Pay will still work.
Just to clear up something else, does your handset need to be unlocked before you can flash another official samsung firmware?

hello , i am using s7 edge G935FXXU1DQFG (united kingdom vodafone) , i didnt received oreo update yet, my question is can i download firmware of any other country instead of this united kingdom vodafone ?
Hello. Im new to the S7 Edge forum coming from a note 4. Im on Puerto Rico (PCT) firmware G935FXXU1BPH1. I saw theres a new Australian firmware on sammobile G935FXXS1BPJ8. I was wondering If someone has tried it out and if theres any diference or changelog available. Ive read that some firmwares removes Volte. Would it be safe to flash it on my model. thanks in advance!
I am on Australian FW BPI6 .... Standard retail version with Sept security... No other updates... It could just be a carrier update??

It was updated for the Vodafone version of the phone.
Does Samsung Pay work on the S7 Edge international (G935F) with Puerto Rico (PCT) CSC?
You need your own carrier's CSC to be able to have VoLTE.
Title says it all, I have not yet found a stock odin package for the dual sim snapdragon s7. Anyone know how to change the csc's? I want to set this as a US device because right now the calendars have a bunch of chinese holidays.
well you need the TGY Hong Kong Firmware. Also this is for S7 Edge I assume you have SM-G9350 the only S7 edge that is bootloader unlockable? I'll give you a stock firmware link for this specific model ONLY. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=312978532265363995

Yes this is the bootloader unlockable s7 edge with the snapdragon. Thanks for the link. You know of any way to purge all the Chinese crap off the device? (QQ and local calendars).
Please tell us the model of the phone, the country, locked /unlocked (also the carrier if locked), any information about the update in your country / information from your personal carrier.In Romania on SMG-935 F unlocked I didn't recieve the update.
The most important countries already received the update such as UK, a part of France and some of Australia.
