Hello Everybody ,
Samsung Pay finally released in the UK with more than year delay.
I have a Galaxy Note 5 which I bought from Dubai (Version SM-N920CD) , this is the dual SIM version.
I am trying to activate Samsung Pay to my device in order to pair it with my card from Santander but I got the message
" You cannot use Samsung Pay with a SIM card from other countries. Insert a SIM card from Korea"
What type of joke is this???
How can I use the service in my phone??
Device is stock and never rooted. Downloaded latest version of of Samsung Pay .apk manually since it is not allowed to do it through Play Store.
Thank you.
Best regards

Hi guys!
I bought a new S3 Mini two days ago from an online company as a Pay as you go phone it came with a Vodaphone top up sim and i have no use for the sim as ive got a contract/pay monthly sim already i just needed a new phone, Anyways ive received it and its locked to Vodaphone WTH?? its a PAYG phone why have they locked it? Anyways as its the new type S3 mini "GT-i8200N" (Faster CPU) ive been looking for a way to sim unlock it without using these dodgy online companies as my brother paid for some company online to unlock his phone and they started buying items all over the world with his Card details so for this reason i wont use any sites online! so i wondered if there is a way around this and does anyone know how please?
Many thanks
Hi,
Im from Mexico and I just bought an unlocked Note 8 from amazon(sprint version) because it was really cheap ($650 USD) , i flashed the unlocked rom and now i want to use Samsung Pay which has just been launched in my country but because my phone is from the US i not able to make it work with my cards (as expected). My question is: I have a US Note 8 (Snapdragon) my country is Exynos only so i cant flash the local rom but could i flash only the home CSC from the unlocked Mexican rom to enable samsung pay?
As several threads mentioned Samsung pay is running based on the CSC, I have similar request with you, just want to add different cards from two country
Hello did you got it to work?
I've got a Hong Kong N9500 and have been happily using Samsung Pay in the UK for the last 2 weeks no problems.
The only drawback is that you won't get the local offers and vouchers etc but the card payments work perfectly fine
Hi All, I have purchased note 8 (sm-n950F dual sim) from the Netherlands. I will be visiting India for vacations. I have installed Samsung pay in my note 8 from apk mirror but it always gives connection issue and I am unable to use it. Is it possible to Flash Indian firmware on it and use Samsung pay in India?
My honest recommendation is to use Android Pay instead of Samsung Pay.
Hi all,
I'm finally moving from an iPhone to Samsung and have ordered an international, Dual-SIM version of the Note 8 from an Irish seller. The phone is unlocked and I plan to use it in the UK, however I've been reading on these forums about region locks prevent the use of Samsung Pay.
I plan to use it in UK, so could this be a problem and would I need to flash UK firmware onto it? Or will it work fine?
Thank in advance guys!
And other thing, will VoLTE work on that international version in the UK?
Thanks!
Hello, Actually I'm residing in South Korea and I bought my phone from Morocco and I can't use Samsung pay neither other contactless payment app here. I already contacted the customer service here they told me to contact the one from where you bought the phone which I did but the service in Morocco told me that they don't have any answer for this problem.
I've read somewhere that's because of the firmware and I should change it to the country I'm in. I have a Samsung galaxy s10 SM-G973F (international version) and my question is would I have any problems if I install SM-G973N(Korea version) firmware on my phone (same processor Exynos 9820) ? and is it going to solve the problem ?
Thank you!
Hey, no expert here or anything just my 2 cents. I found a Reddit article that asks a similar question. Their Exynos device was in the US but Samsung Pay wouldn't work for them either. The comments seem to point to a change in the CSC needing to match the local region. You can read the article here. For the OP of that question they were hopelessly stuck because there is no US firmware for the Exynos version. You may have better luck since there is a version for your location.
