My machine is chinese version GT 7.7
It looks like that some people met problems when they flashing other country's firmware on their chinese version 7.7
Does it mean that i can't flash other firmware by now?
Chinese brand
Hi,
I also have the same question.
I am new to android - coming from many years on iPhones.
I just got a 7.7 (From the Taobao Samsung shop here in China, they had a trail version program where 300 people can pay a deposit and then use the tablet for 30 days and return it)
I want to know if the Chinese version is also able to flash to the Hong Kong version as this Chinese version is really a mess - no android market, no google access and a lot of stock Chinese software. (and I think a few monitoring things a well???)
Anyway - I have read most of the post on the 7.7 and it seems that there are some people who have had a hard time flashing the Chinese version? (It also seems to me like they might just have run into some problems)
As far as I understand, coming from a server admin background, this should be really basic and should be easy to do?? One should be able to flash any countries firmware onto any version?
Please let me know.
PS...I have the 16GB 3G version
Use one thread for China p6800 issues, 'kay? Seach, boys:

My phone's model number shows as SM-G900FQ. Is it possible to install a custom rom on this one?
SM-G900FQ is the model number for the devices sold in Turkey and SM-G900F is the model number for the devices sold in Europe. They may be identical in hardware but I'm not sure of course. Just a guess.
All I want is to update my phone to 5.1 (currently 5.0 - official) so any official leak or something like that would also do (even better this way).
Thanks in advance.
Which Firmware Can I Flash For G9750 Model S10 Plus? English Version
You've asked the question I was thinking about asking, but not sure where to put or ask it.
I'm considering buying a new S10+ (G9750) from Wonda Mobile as it's so much cheaper than in the UK, but you also get the slightly better performing device.
So I'm hoping by bumping this thread we might get an answer.
Hi,
there are only two firmwares available for the S10 plus SM-G9750 version april 2019:
- One from China with usless chinese stuff and no Google stuff intended for chinese users: Version: G9750ZCU1ASD4 (ZCU is the chinese version code and CSC is CHC).
- The other one from Hong Kong with Google stuff and intended for international users (Much more langages available at start-up but the very first one will be chinese when the cell phone starts after a factory restet) Version: G9750ZHU1ASD4 (Be sure to have ZHU in the code and CSC is TGY)
So for international users, the only option will be the ZHU firmware version and if you buy it from Canada or England for exemple, sellers are supposed to ship you the Hong-Kong version.
I'm from Canada, I bought it in Canaba and I have tested both firmwares with Magisk.
By the way, you are welcome.
I've just created an account to thank you for the info! I was about to flash mine to the Chinese version thinking it was better!!!!
Have A Play Store In China Firmware ?

As I said above : No Google stuff.
I would like to inform you that with the Chinese firmware, the phone doesn't behave normally: None of the app runs in background so you have to modify that in the settings. if not none of the widgets will work for example.
Samsung pay is pre-installed and there is an annoying white bar at the bottom of the phone (in the navigation bar). you can get rid of it with titanium backup.
As I said, if you are not Chinese, don't use this firmware. If you want to install it, you'll have to download the play store apk.
Does the white bar appear on just the Chinese version or both HK and Chinese versions?
TIA

Just the Chinese version.
Note that you can easily swap between two versions of the firmware, so it doesn't really matter which one the phone is shipped with if buying from Ebay or similar.
And just to echo @oceliome's post — G9750 is a dual-sim version with Snapdragon processor (as opposed to Exynos for dual-sim versions in Europe and elsewhere), so you cannot flash firmware from other dual-sim versions of G975FD.
Almost two months and no updates. It's really unbelievable.
Well from what I am reading here, I'm not going to be buying a new S10 series phone.
I'm not going to buy an inferior Exynos powered one and I'm not prepared to buy a Snapdragon one either which doesn't work with Google Pay or PayPal with 100% reliability and now seemingly isn't receiving any firmware updates.
I've also received reports from my friends that there are significant issues with the Bluetooth connectivity to VW/Audi group cars infotainment systems which seem to prevent you making and taking handsfree phone calls and using Android Auto as well.
I'll be watching the market for something else which meets my requirements.

Makes sense, glad you did your research.

Hi. I am planning to buy g9750 from expansys and I'm in UAE. Will I be affected in any of the software issues or network issue or something? Need your expert suggestions since you are using one.
Can I change my S10 plus version from G9750ZCU2ASG7 (China) to G9750ZHU2ASG7(Hong Ko
Hi I bought an S10 plus from China with no Google apps. I manually downloaded it but I want Google apps installed as system apps because I'm having issues with my Google assistant. Can I change my Chinese version to Hong Kong version because they are similar if I'm not mistaken. The reason I want to do this so that I can get Google apps preinstalled as system apps.
If I can do this, how do I do it and also do I lose my data on my phone? Also will Google apps now be system apps on my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Reckon the firmware is interchangeable because the same hardware on both variants, I have G9750 (the China mainland one) myself and use Google's bells and whistles but not so much of the Google assistant though (currently located in China mainland) can't be all the time connected to the VPN

The latest firmware for Hong Kong devices (CSC TGY) has English Language Support, all that needs to be done is change the language in settings after startup. You'll have access to Google Playstore, Samsung Pay and many other apps. It also lacks the bloatware associated with carrier branded devices and the bootloader is unlocked which allows you to root the device.
Hi guys,
Just bought a cheap China HU for my car - model number 8227L_demo. Is says it runs Android 8 go. I can see there's a 9 go, is it possible to update somehow? Know the go version is best for under 1gb ram
I have an old G6 H870S with software version V20o-AME-XX. I don't care about preserving the data but I'd like to try and update the phone to Android 9. On the LG fan club there is an Android 9 Pie for Algeria H870S30b_00_OPEN_AME_DS_OP_1212.kdz which is Android 9.
The last two Algerian versions are:
H870S20o_00_OPEN_AME_DS_OP_0802.kdz - Android 8
H870S30b_00_OPEN_AME_DS_OP_1212.kdz - Android 9
The last United Arab Emirates version is:
H870S20o_00_OPEN_AME_DS_OP_0802.kdz - Android 8
Notice that the last Android 8 Version looks like it's the same.
So what do you think about using LGUP to upgrade the phone using the Algerian version?
Has anyone tried it?
P.S. - I purchased the phone new in Australia and thought it would be the DS version but it appears that the retail seller was sourcing the phones from overseas. Something to watch for in the future! They did not false advertise because they didn't say it was an Australian model but they also didn't say it was an overseas model either. They just said it was an LG G6.
