SM-N920I from Singapore with no Region sticker

I bought my 920i off of eBay, it came from Singapore and there was no region sticker on the box like my previous international phones. Is the Singapore version not a true international version or is it not region locked? Has anyone who bought the 920i from Singapore had the region sticker on their box?

Thanks. After I changed my Google search term it came back with quite a few posts saying that the Singapore version is not region locked. As long as Samsung does not change it I guess I will just buy from Singapore in the future.

All phones sold in Singapore cannot be locked according to local regulations...

Change firmware version to different country

Hi folks,
Back after a while ... I was in the Middle east and had purchased the Note 5 (SM-N920C) that had the United Arab Emirates (XSG) version of firmware. I had leave the Middle East recently and have moved to India. Back here in India, I find that:
a) I'm tied to a UAE version of Samsung Pay
b) I cannot access apps available only for India (YouTube Go for example)
In an effort to sort my problem I'm considering switching firmware. Do you think this is possible? A quick search reveals that I may not be in luck but I thought I might as well ask and have my fear confirmed
Thank you for any input

Sure you can as long you got the model correct

A6 plus A605F

Hi so i live in Germany and bought a a6 plus a year ago from Saturn (one of the big IT shopping places) and i was looking on the samfrew to see if android 10 is out for me and i looked at my box to see my model and it was A605F
A605F is for africa and asia and it should be A605FN for the Europe so i was really confused
Altho in my settings it shows dbt in the carrier csc code so my question is am i getting update as a dbt csc user or the csc code that it came with?

Use of the SM-N950U in europe (italy)

Hi, I bought an Unlocked Note 8 N950U from a UK seller on Ebay who had written N950F in the listing, now I am in dispute with PP and I have to decide what to do. I would like to know a safe information if possible: can it be more dangerous for health (radiation or other) to use the American model N950U in Italy (Europe) compared to the European model N950F? (ho-mobile operator) regardless of the firmware that I install? Thank you very much.

Anyone, please ? Thanks

For all my years on XDA, I have never seen this question asked.
I would guess it would be exactly the same. But I think this is probably a question to ask Samsung themselves.
Here is the link for Samsung UK Support.

My brain is turned off today, contact Samsung Support in your country, probably be more helpful ?

Maybe ! I have already tried to contact Samsung assistance but Italy assistance responds only for European models and USA assistance answers only for American models and therefore no conclusions can be drawn.

Here are a few links that might help. The first link mentioned the N950F signal radiation (SAR).
https://www.samsung.com/sar/sarMain?site_cd=uk&prd_mdl_name=SM-N950F
Here is USA n950u:
https://www.samsung.com/sar/sarMain?site_cd=uk&prd_mdl_name=SM-N950U&selNatCd=US&languageCode=EN
Rest is general numbers:
https://www.rfsafe.com/phone/samsung-galaxy-note-8-0/
https://www.indiatimes.com/technolo...ones-launched-till-december-2018_-361828.html
You can google search for either note 8 sar numbers or note 8 radiation numbers or SM-N950F or SM-N950U radiation numbers for more info.
