Questions SM-G9350 specific (Dual-SIM with SD820) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hey.
I ask myself if the dual sim device SM-G9350 (Hong Kong model I think) with SD 820 comes with google play service/play store out of the box.
Is there someone who already owns it and can tell?
If its not installed next question would be if it is possible to just download the Google Play services apk and install it to get play store and others to work.
thanks!

Dont think the hong kong model is the sd820 could be wrong but my hk note 4 was exynos

Related to these sources you can at least tell this is a Chinese model.

Oh... yes.. sorry
Another question I could not answer by googling - does it have or not have a region lock?
But how could you answer this if you're in the destination country the device is sold for.
Edit: Did you have a label saying "HK or Asia SIM-Card only" on the packaging?

I don't think it have any lock ,but I can't find any root yet

Got mine (SM-9350) a few days ago via eBay while I was in Chicago. Now I am back home in the Netherlands. So I can confirm that:
- there is no region lock as I could do cell and data in all places mentioned. Nor had the box a sticker of a region lock
- it is the Snapdragon
- it has the Sony sensor
Let me know if you want some more info

1) has dual sim or just a dual sim tray just for show?
2) does it have google play pre-installed?
3)which firmware version its using?

Is it confirmed, that the G9350 like the US Versions with SD is locked down with both bootloader and SD secure boot?

Is it possible to get this model to work with Verizon CDMA \ LTE in the U.S. ? I bought this phone and all the bands are supported but it will not find the network.

We can't do much more than speculate unless you provide us with specific details about your phone. We need to at least know the model. You can find out more about your phone with an app like Phone Info.
Do you want to install that app and tell us what it says for these items?

Something is not right there. I suspect you made a typo. If the phone really says 4.2.2, then it's a fake running Android JB. But probably you have a real 900F phone with Hong Kong i.e. Chinese 4.4.2 firmware. Explaining the Chinese characters. And you probably just need to configure your APN /LTE information for TMobile.
It would help if you install the app I suggested and gave us the other details.

Is there any one rooted S7/S7 edge Snapdragon version?

My English is bad, sorry.
I have rooted my SM-G9350(S7 edge China version) by flashing xiao1u's recovery, then boot into recovery and flash SuperSU 2.71.
Then I found the front camera issue: When using system camera app's auto mode, the second and next photo captured become deep red black, when reboot or reset the camera app, the first shot is well, but the second shot is still become deep red black.... And other problems, such as in some apps the video can not play directly, the picture stoped at begin and the speaker make "da da da"...(I have asked one who have not root his phone, he does not have this problem...)
So I flashed back offical firmware using odin, seleted "Re-partition, Nand erase all and phone bootloader update", but no any change, the problem still there...
Some one flashed xiao1u's recovery but he haven't boot into recovery to flash SuperSU ZIP package, he say his phone does not have these problems...That seems says xiao1u's recovery does not directly cause these problems...
So the problems may because using xiao1u's recovery flashing SuperSU package?
Some one guess these problems because root changed param partition, who have param.bin?
Not only me, as I found there are about fifty people have the same problem as me....
Who can give some help? Lots of thanks!!!!!

The U.S. Snapdragon variants have a locked bootloader. It appears the Chinese version does not.
so this will only work on the asian versions?

So far, apparently.
It's been my limited observation that locked bootloaders are carrier specific, it may be that the US providers may have become consistent but I haven't really made an assessment.
USA.... The land of the free and the locked bootloader. That is just not right ☺
I almost started getting very excited...what a tease lol

I thank Congress. You know. My lawmakers, which are lock-stock-and-barrel owned by the well monied PACs, such as the telecom providers.
I give a second thanks to the malicious coders of the world that have made it necessary for personal devices that do computation to have strong built-in security defenses just to be able to communicate with other drives.
I used that file to unlock (by some way) my bootloader im on the same g9350.
The people with the locked BL issue should try CROM, if it doesnt work it will not kill your phone.
1400700226 can you share to me the links from where you obtained the info related to the root??? As I mentioned you before when i tryed the root my IMEI got corrupted.

P8 Lite - Only one sim active

G'day fellas,
Nas here from Australia. I am a newbie to this forum so apologies in advance if this topic has been covered/answered already.
Background info
I recently purchased a brand new P8 Lite from someone who had received this as a complementary phone from their mobile provider "Telstra". I bought the phone with the aim of combining my personal and work number onto just one phone.
Issue
Although the phone is unlocked however only one sim port is active. So I need your expert help in activating the sim 2 port to be able to use my other number. Please let me know if you require any specific info, I will try my best to provide all the info.
Thanks in advance, Nas
If it is the single SIM phone, you have to flash the dual SIM firmware! There is a good manual in this forum!
if it is already the dual SIM model: the second SIM can only connect via 2G. for example: if you use a carrier, that has no 2G (GSM / EDGE) coverage (there are some carriers), you cannot use this SIM in slot 2.
(sorry for my english)
Thanks for the reply.
How do I know that mine is a single sim phone? Is there any guide available?

There are couple of ways to get your bootloader unlocked...
The first one is by going to huawei's site and asking for them, you'll find it in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=67372756
The other way is by using Kingroot app and running few command
http://huaweip8lite.blogspot.com/2016/03/bootloader-huawei-p8-lite-14-huawei.html?m=1
The email way is old and they wont reply..
Try the first method, be sure to sign up using your Facebook id.
The second method, well, used kingroot and fewpeople faced lot of issues using it (personally I used this method to get my code)

Which s10 should i get/ best for rooting?

I have Sprint and was going to go today to get a new phone. Is there a particular firmware version i should look for ? Or is there a range of firmwares i can check for to make sure i will be able to root it when i get home? i def want to be able to root my new phone but last time when i got my new s8 ans s9 the firmwares were pre updated and i was unable to root either of them. Thanks in advance for any help!
None of the US models can currently be rooted and as far as I'm aware the international models aren't compatible with Sprint since it's a CDMA carrier.
If root is important to you then you should probably look at purchasing a different phone.

check this out
remember: in order to get root use magisk 19.3 patched ap only for now. v20 isn't working properly with sd855 devices for the moment. that's my experience.

That's why you shouldn't buy an US version. I'm from Germany and I'll never buy a mobile phone from there anymore. Especially not from Samsung. My actually galaxy s10+ is from Hong Kong. Waited 2 weeks for it. Snapdragon 855 instead of exynos. Bootloader unlocked, rooted.
Just check if baseband frequencies are supported. There is a cool app out there called spectify. Check it out
Well they ended up replacing my s9 w insurance instead of upgrading me. So aparently I need to find a guide for SamFail I assume?

SM-G9750, Hong Kong variant (unlocked bootloader) works on Sprint, Band 25, 1900 MHz.

SM-G9880 & SM-G9810 HK\CH\Taiwan Snapdragon Root

Hello All,
TO be crystal clear, this is for HK\China\Taiwan version of the device. Snapdragon bootloader unlockable.
I bought both these phones and was able to root successfully.
Following all the other guides, unlock bootloader etc. you extract the boot image, change to tar, patch it with magisk, flash in Odin via AP, boot immediately in recovery, factory reset, and voila, boot up and you are good to go.
I'm using the S20U with T-Mo and the S20 with ATT
I fandangled these instructions in the OP here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s20-plus/development/howto-root-phone-s20-t4067649
Got FW from here
https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G9880 and
https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G9810
Edit: I imagine this works with S20+ too
So now I have a couple of questions actually.
Given that i'm a US user, can i flash t-mo CSC ? or the NA unlocked FW?
What's safe to debloat?
I do'nt know how to build kernels, but if anyone is interested, i'll be their guinea pig.
Kernel Sauce : https://opensource.samsung.com/uploadSearch?searchValue=G9880
Possible you write the guide for rooting s20U snap ?
Also, my build date for the latest update on samfw i flashed it has apr 1 security update

I have several questions
First off for those using swift installer you must apply the high contrast theme on theme store in galaxy apps, then you can use swift installer after a reboot.
Where is caller ID settings like i had on my pixel 3 xl in terms of screening etc.
Also, do i need to flash a t-mobile CSC ?
I have wifi calling VoLTE but unsure if i'm getting the "best speeds" per se
i'm unable to access *#2263# either, does nothing..

g988n I believe is Exynos which is not favored.
if we're already importing from online, might as well go for SD, assuming it will be rootable
I didn't get my HK s10 until root appeared. to use in USA.
here is break down of model number, vs, region, vs cpu

You're wrong my friend, 988N is using definitely Snapdragon 865 chip. That's is also new for the Koreans this year!

thanks for the screenshot. shows me what I know. further google showed me that it is indeed SD for this particular model
the only question now is whether G988N or G9880 is more favored for rooting.
this info will change what people would buy, well, for me at least
You can now change your CSC using Samkey. I have changed mines from BRI to TGY today.

Hello All,
TO be crystal clear, this is for HK\China\Taiwan version of the device. Snapdragon bootloader unlockable.
I bought both these phones and was able to root successfully.
Following all the other guides, unlock bootloader etc. you extract the boot image, change to tar, patch it with magisk, flash in Odin via AP, boot immediately in recovery, factory reset, and voila, boot up and you are good to go.
I'm using the S20U with T-Mo and the S20 with ATT
I fandangled these instructions in the OP here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s20-plus/development/howto-root-phone-s20-t4067649
Got FW from here
https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G9880 and
https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G9810
Edit: I imagine this works with S20+ too

I'm wishing to purchase the SD version but just wondering where's the best place online to buy from? I'm in UK (London) so would need Samsung/Google Pay to work as well
Thanks
