Hey there,
I have SM-G950U (which is for US market) and now I'm living in Europe, can I reinstall firmware to one from my current region even if it is for SM-G950F model?
SM-G950U ---> SM-G950F
Thanks.

I don't think it will work, flashing a European firmware has boot loader included, European boot loader not compatible with US model

lol we can't flash exynos rom to Qualcomm
Yeah... I thought so. I'm asking cuz apparently I cannot obtain and use LTE+ in Europe even though it has the same frequencies. Now it says LTE which is around 11 mbps...

You might be able to flash only the CSC as they dont contain system binaries just config files but I have no idea if it will work or now so be prepared to restore from soft brick id you try
I have a G950F.
Does anybody know if I can just flash the CSC from the G950U (ATT) firmware to my G950F International phone?
I know you can't flash the full firmware as the G950F has the Exynos processor and the G950U is made for the Snapdragon.
But is it safe to just flash the CSC file only as I want to fully use Samsung Pay, wifi calling, VoLTE, etc?
I'm using the Australia firmware (XSA) for my G950F.

Is it okay to flash different model number?? I have SM-N910f and unlock it using z3x box but it seems to work only in GSM and I think it's because of the firmware from Europe and I want to use it in Asia. I am planning to use SM-N910C firmware. Will it brick the device?
Because I have searched for threads flashing their device into different model number, just making sure nothing bad will happen.
Thank you

Yes it will brick for sure. You can only flash firmware for N910F. You can flash firmware for a different region... like Asia region but it must be the same model

ok, you should be able to flash any G900F tar.md5 file from any country on it. You have the international verison of that phone and it has TONS of tar.md5's for it that will all work just fine. only signal difference you will notice is in the different radios that are in the different tarballs, other than that, they should all work the same
I saw the rom listed as XAA and no carrier brand. Is this the unlocked snap dragon GS8? Anyone know? I see that there were 3 samsung phones listed G950W - canadian, G950U - current carrier phones and a G950U1.
I just bought the unlocked USA variant today and yes the G950U1 is the S8 unlocked.

Hello
I have a India Region S8 which is not locked by any provider. As I am in Australia I wanted to install the Australian version so that I get the Samsung Pay options for Australia.
Does anyone know how to update the Samsung Pay or entire OS to Australia?
Will installing official samsung version of Australian rom trip my knox?
Please help.
Anyone??

Since urs is an Indian model of the s8.. It will be the Exynos variant.
If Australia also sells Exynos variant (which I think it does), then u can directly download the Australian firmware from sammobile for ur model and flash it with odin.
Make sure u download the firmware of Exynos itself.
And flashing this wont trip Knox.
I bought s8 (G950N-Exynos-singled sim) from south korea though i live in india. Here voLTE wasn't working before, then i flashed a custom rom hadesrom one ui by corsicanu. Now voLTE works almost fine.
But the network service of my device is very poor than indian s8 (i compared it with indian s8). I was wondering if i can flash the bootloader and modem of indian s8(G950FD) via odin .
But the problems are 1. my phone is singled sim, 2. there are no such indian s8 firmware of android 9 on sammobile.com.
What if i flash the bl and cp of G950F ?

voLTE is a carrier specific service. if it wasnt working on your previous ROM and is currently working on the new one, then the dev baked in the goodness of voLTE on your ROM where it was absent prior in the previous ROM.
Anyways, as far as what will happen if you flash the G950F firmware, it will boot and then the phone will think its a G950F. Thats it. Exynos processor S8's can accept the F firmware
