Hi everyone,
I'm very new to this website but it seems like all the smart people are here and hopefully I can get some help!
I have a few questions regarding my S21 Ultra.
As you can see from my model number, I have the US variant of this phone. However, I now live in the UK and have an UK sim card, along with my US eSIM that I used before.
1. My software security patch/software was last updated in November, but this was the October 1st update. Is there any way that I can update to a more recent one? I've read forums saying I can flash(?) using odin(?) but to be honest I don't know how any of this works and don't want to ruin my phone.
2. My phone has been restarting by itself for a while now, sometimes multiple times in a day, sometimes it doesn't do it for a week. Do you think this might have to do with having a different SIM from a different country?
I'd appreciate any guidance and help that anyone can provide!
Thank you!
No.
Your phone not need a update, all continents version is the same.

Heya folks, sorry if there is a post semi like this one, i honestly did search and didnt see anything remotely the same..
ordered my HD7 and it's arriving monday, but when i was browsing this site i noticed a lot of posts are about tmobile versions of the updates.. i was just wondering,
does the phone not get generic updates due it been on tmobile?
because the phone is unlocked and is stated to be region free.. if i update firmware will it be likely to lock again? (i use o2 UK)
if it will lock, how do i prevent/unlock again/unlock permanently?
Thanks in advance, sorry if these are "nooby" questions, first windows phone and first phone from america..

I recently purchased a Galaxy S6 from a third party seller on Amazon. After the phone had been delivered, my preferred carrier informed me that not only was a specific model(SM-G920T) required, but it also had to be one of these build numbers.
MMB29K.G920TUEU3DPD6, MMB29K.G920TUES4DPF1, MMB29K.G920TUES4DPH2, MMB29K.G920TUEU4DPG2
I contacted the seller and they do not have one of these builds in stock.
My build is the MMB29K.G920TUVU3EPD1
As far as I know the differences between my phone and the ones accepted is only relative to software. Is there a way that i can install a rom that would reflect one of the accepted builds or that I could somehow trick the carrier into thinking that it is the correct version. I know next to nothing so please if you can make the answers as simple as possible.
My phone is running Android 6.0.1
It is the T-Mobile variant.
I am attempting to get it to work on Republic Wireless.
Thank you so much for any help you can offer!
Hello I was hoping someone might help me with little information. I am fairly new to Android devices as I come from a Apple Background. I purchased a TAB S2 SM-T710 recently off ebay. Well I received it and realized its stuck at 5.0.1 and wont update, Thought a wipe and reset might get it to update but when I did that it came up as another language and keyboard. Apparently the CSC is for Taiwan and Honk Kong. Beyond this it seems to work alright. I am unsure what this means for the tablet and what I can do. Obviously it won't update at that CSC, but does will this also cause me issues with apps? I was hoping you nice knowledgeable folks could give me some info so I could figure out how to proceed. It seems from looking into it, A different CSC firmware can be flashed and Android can be updated to Marshmallow, but I can't seem to find which CSC would be US and how/if this will effect other things like apps.
So I am two choices, part of me is considering raising issue with the seller and returning it, the other part is considering trying to resolve the problem.
Any thoughts would be wonderful.
@edit found and installed US Rom, Thank you folks. Only question I have is are there any unknown effects running a US CSC Rom on a device that originated elsewhere?
Hi, i recently purchased a single sim note 8 with model n950U. I just want to ask why i have 3 software update options?
When i click the first one it would momentarily say registering device then would say processing failed
The second one would just tell me i have the latest updates.
The third one would say we have a problem authenticating your device.
What should i do, since i am not that knowledgeable in rooting or doing some technical stuff.
Thank you!

You might just need to flash your model factory firmware...or perform factory reset
I'm planning on changing regions but I'm not sure which one to use. What would you guys recommend?
Also, can this be done after a reset of the watch or do I have to go through the whole CSC process?
I was asking myself the same question last night. I searched all the threads related to BP and region change with no luck.
I was also trying to find the combination and stock roms for TK1 version but seems like all the sites that have the files are pay to download. (I don't mind paying but paying around $20 to get 2 files?)
Anyway, if anyone know the answer to the OP's question, I will also appreciate it.
ZTO everything works
Hi everyone, I’m writing from Italy.
In October I bought a galaxy watch3 LTE from Amazon.USA and imported it here in Italy, cause it was not available yet here, it was released in the lte version only recently.
I didn’t know that the watch was not compatible here in Italy, but only for the US, and after the last update of a week ago I’m having issues with the watch, like connection problems, notifications not appearing on the watch and also the LTE is not working.
I tried to contact both Samsung US and Amazon US, but they both told me that they cannot do anything to help me, no replacement or return, nothing.
So I searched online if there was a way to change my watch software from US to Italy, and with my extreme surprise I found out that there is the possibility to change the region of the watch to every country in the world.
My questions are: what can I do to change the region of my US galaxy watch3 LTE? There are any compatible ways to do that? Will the change of the region prevent my watch to get future updates? And after the change will I be able to use LTE here in Italy?
Thanks to everyone who will reply!!
P.S. I have to change the current SM-R845U (that is a US version) to an SM-R845F (that should be an Italian version, right?)
