I've used UAE Samsung phones in the Phililpines before without needing to flash Philippine firmware. Any reason you want to?

Yeah! Who can make a zip flashable in TWRP?

I have stock 5.11
Can I use Odin to flash this? I have a stock UK rom no root, but with TWRP installed.
I understand TWRP may be wiped? But can put that back on anyway.
my T810 is currently installed the firmware pda: T810XXU2APB2 , csc: T810OXE2APB1 country: Russia.
Can I download this Germany FW and flash it through Odin ?
You can install through odin fine
Sent from my SM-T810 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Silly question but I cannot get into odin mode: every time I power down and restart using home + power + vol - it goes to a yellow exclamation screen and then stock recovery, no matter if I press volume +/- or both. What gives?
Nevermind, figured it out using adb shell.

Flashed on my US T810 with ODIN and works fine (no data wipe or root needed).
Note: There is an issue with the 5 Ghz wifi band only in the sense that the higher 5 Ghz frequencies are probably not used in Germany (wifi bands are region specific esp. the top and lower end bands) so channels 149 and above will not work with this German ROM. Good news is that you can always adjust your router to a lower 5 Ghz band and then it will work fine. Flashing via ODIN also preserved my data so if and when the US version comes out, I may just flash it again to gain back the upper 5 Ghz channels.
If you install German version and then want to install US version over that, do you have to wipe data or will it just write over it and preserve user data.

No need, I just went into recovery, wiped, then flashed 6.0.1 German firmware from England firmware. You don't need to change it to American firmware because you can change the language to English in the setup.
Right but I think the only difference is the 5ghz wifi
Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
And the fact the My Galaxy app is called Mein Galaxy
I am no odin expert but I think if you flash the same or higher version file from a different region, you should be able to preserve your data.
Thanks for this. I think the tablet is faster than it was before. Let's see after a few days of use.
Fingerprint seems to work a lot better too, it didn't even work half of the time for me before and I didn't even redo it after updating.

No issue unless you need the upper 5 Ghz bands and cannot wait till the US version posts.

You need to odin the entire tar before a zip would even be beneficial....

Samsung Pay not available in Samsung S7 Edge

Ok, so I have a Galaxy S7 Edge, model G935F and unrooted, and I can't use Samsung Pay on it. It's nowhere in my apps and when I use Google Play on my browser it says it's not available in any of my devices. Does anyone know how can I use it ? Also, I have the latest firmware installed.
All depends on which region you are you using boss. S-Pay is in select countries at the moment, so depending on if you have that region it'll show up on your device. Spain/USA/China/Korea/Singapore/Australia.
Brazil. And yes, it's available here .

It's on France CSC and it's XEF.(I bought it there). Maybe that's why I can't download SPay?

Yeah, you need to be running a ROM that supports it. Brazil's ROM does so just flash that one. I believe it's ZTO.

you will still have that simcard manager thing. like I said they both use the exact same firmware. only on custom roms sometimes the creator removes that manager thing because he assumes no one with a fd will use his rom. but official roms always have it.

Nope, it doesn't work. You just need to wait for your carrier to update to nougat for VoLTE etc.
