Can't Install Google Pay on Galaxy S10 - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys,
Does anyone also have this issue with installing Google Pay on Samsung Galaxy S10.
I bought this phone in UAE and tried to add a UK card to Samsung Pay preinstalled on this Samsung S10.
But it tells that the card issuer is not supported and shows a list of UAE banks that are.
Tried to delete my Samsung account because my country was selected as UAE. I created a new one with UK in country field.
Also no success. I even tried a VPN to UK and that also didn't help. I also was cleaning cache and data after all those steps but no luck.
In this moment I understood that it will be impossible to add it.
Then I thought that I will just switch to Google Pay instead, but I didn't see that app pre-installed so I tried to install it but in Google Play I was unable to find it. so I tried to search it and I found a link that opened it in Google Play but when i tired to install it it said that "This version is not compatible with your device".
I have the latest Android Pie 9 installed with Android security pach from 01 feb 2019
WTF is all this about, should it be so hard to make it to work? how to install Google Pay and start using it?
I have googled all those issues and didn't find any solutions to this issue. Tried to delete cache and data in Google Play also.

Maybe the problem is in CSC. You can heck with command * # 1234 #. For UK it should be G973FOXM.

These are the versions that are currently installed on my s10+

[Q] Rooted unit with market problems

I got this unit, relatively cheaply, in china. I realised it was rooted on two items: superuser was installed, and when keeping the start button depressed it came up with some chinese menu for shutdown, even though the os language was set to english.
I could set up my google account without problems, but i couldnt access the market. It was as if they used a short cut with an android market icon. Having said that, when i went to the market website online, i couldnt sign in on that. My non rooted htc phone has no problems accessing the market.
Interestingly, when i connected to wifi it popped up a softwarenudate notification, which it couldnt download due to absence of a SIM card (i didnt put my sim card in it yet)
Any thoughts/comments/suggestions?
What is your usage location?
what version of ROm you have? (setting - about phone)
you have to see there
baseband version ?
Build version?
Kernel version ?
Right, i managed to get the market working by performing a factory reset.
Baseband version=N7000XXKJ6
Kernel=2.6.35.7-N7000ZSKK1-CL706440
Build=GINGERBREAD.ZSKK1
Right now i found that the problems i ave with this build, is that any firmware updates cannot be installed (i get a registration error message, and yes, i did register the unit with samsung).
It also contains several chinese apps that i cannot uninstall and are a nuisance.
One is called 360-something (its in chinese which i dont read), another one is called Gexin. Both apps actually report new messages.
There is also a QQ security app running (i know QQ is very popular in asia).
Ideally id like to have a UK or US original firmware, so i can update to ICS when it comes out in the next month or so. But a modified US orUK rom would probably do as well if necessary.

Samsung Newb here: Oreo to Pie 950F help

I would like some help updating a Note 8, SM-N950F. Before I attempt anything I want to better understand a few things.
1) I see people mentioning different boot loaders, version 5 etc... Do I care what version I have?
2) The device was purchased from Australia and has Vodafone AU software and it's currently being used in the Philippines
Can I change it to XSA to remove any Vodafone crap?
3) I see mention of multi CSC firmware, is this official Samsung firmware and what exactly is it.
At the moment neither Samsung Pay nor Google Pay will install on the device, perhaps because neither are supported in the Philippines, any thoughts on this?
This is what I am hoping to install
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note8/SM-N950F/XSA/download/N950FXXU5DSB2/260951/
After updating to PIE, Phone started to lag, swipe and navigation front and back does not respond in 1st few swipes. Batter train, Rear camera Seflfi option removed.
Boot your device into Recovery Mode and wipe the cache partition. That should resolve your software issues. With regards to installing the OS from your native country. Just check that the model number of the OS matches that of your Device. If they match then you should be fine.

Verizon software keeps reinstalling on Pixel 4XL

Hi, i have a Pixel 4XL
baseband version g8150-00123-220402-B-8399852
i think its american , but i have installed the australian firmware on it , after a factory reset , and install a custom rom
this verizon software keeps reinstalling... can anyone clear up if this is spyware hidden ( i got the phone from a dodgy supplier online)
i want to remove it , yet it keeps reinstalling after multiple wipes.. i have erased slot a and b , reflashed recovery , reflashed firmware.
i intially thought it was reinstalling as it was linked to the baseband but from what i understand installing the Australian firmware should remove this system app ..
can anyone tell me how i can completely wipe this phone so this is removed. Do i need to edit the kernal to change the baseband someone at the phone shop suggested editing the Build Prop is this correct ? and if so how does one go about this.

I believe it's "normal" to have My Verizon Services, AppDirectedSMS and com.verizon.llkagent on your phone, although they should be disabled if not using Verizon (I have them on my Pixel 6 Pro but they are disabled). These 3 came with the phone out of the box and aren't spyware, but there in case you have a Verizon model or on the Verizon network, I believe.
If you really wanted to uninstall them you could root and try uninstalling them, but just disabling them should suffice.

i am in australia. using a american verison pixel, i was able to unlock the bootloader on the locked verizon version, and flashed australian firmware. but the verizon software wont remove unless i manually do it.
Does anyone know how to stop sprint / Verizon system applications from reinstalling, I can remove them with root but when I restart that creates a bootloop.. It is a american pixel. But I'm in Australia, I have tried flashing Australian firmware yet the problem persists, surely someone on here has the knowledge of how to do this, I was told on stack that it has to do with carrier - ID / device ID.
Hmm, have you tried moving to the USA, signing up with Verizon as a service provider, and then cancelling and moving back to Australia?
Jokes aside, you could try disabling or uninstalling it via ADB? Let me know how you go.

help with my samsung SM-N950U (Note 8)

Hello! good morning, I have a Samsung Note 8 SM-N950U, which I wanted to install a custom ROM to get out of android 9, the problem is that the OEM unlock option does not appear on my device, I tried to change the date and update but It has not worked, I tried to change the CSC of ATT that comes by default but when using SamFW it tells me that there are no other CSC for my device, even on the web page, there is no solution for these problems or a way to install a custom one ROM, if someone can give me an answer I would greatly appreciate it.
Have you considered buying a rooted version of this phone on ebay or asking any people that sell rooting services on ebay?

S20FE Not Updating since OneUi 3 and Android 11

Hello all.
My S20FE (SM-G780F) has not updated from OneUi 3 and Android 11. It always says that I'm using the latest software. I've tried factory resetting the phone and using Smart Switch to no avail.
I'm in the UK. Never lived anywhere else. I reside here permanently. It's where I bought my phone brand new.
I checked the service provider software version and it says ZT0/ZTO,ZTO/EUX . However, when I use the dialler method to check the same information it says the CSC is BTL3.
I researched and ZTO seems to refer to Brazil. I've never been to Brazil or anywhere in that vicinity so I don't know why it says ZTO as the service provider information.
Could this be why I'm having issues updating? If the phone thinks it's Brazilian then it would stop me updating if I'm in the UK? Is that correct?
Samsung suggested I send it to them to flash the drive but they require a proof of purchase and as I bought the phone over 2 years ago I can't for the life of me find the original order email.
Just for clarification the phone has never been rooted or modded and all software etc is "official." I've looked into flashing the software with Odin. Would I need ro download the update file for the CSC my phone says it is or for the CSC it should be? Do I only download the latest update or would I have to stack them and download all the previous ones my phone missed too?
Please help before I tear my hair out.
flashing the phone yourself with Odin is very easy, there are dozens of YouTube vids to get an idea from. actually downloading the firmware is more difficult.
whoever sold you the phone is who you should be angry at, it obviously wasn't intended for use here. let me know if you want help flashing!
Same thing happened to my Mom's phone (a Galaxy A series device).
Use this guide and manually flash the latest firmware.
