Did you flash the dual sim firmware onto you single sim phone in the end? If so, what works and what doesn't work? I'm in a similar situation, but the reason why I'm asking is because I want to get VoLTE working in a specific country. The variant of the phone that is sold in that country is the FD variant whereas mine is the F variant - which was purchased in a different country.

Although this is a Note 9 question in reality, it's not out yet so I'm asking re the 8.
Has anyone flashed the 950FD with the F single sim rom for one of the UK carriers to enable VoLTE?
I ask as ONLY the dual / hybrid SIM N960FD Note 9 is available from Samsung UK direct.
Thanks,
The firmware for N950F and N950FD are the same so it should work. Second thing to take a look at is if your carrier requires its ROM to have VoLTE because in France it is the case.
And because I'm French I can't really reply to your question, I'm adding some precision for others.

Brilliant, thanks. You flashed single sim EE EVR ROM onto your dual SIM SM-N950FD?
Strange it still works after flashing back BTU .
I hope it's the same with my Note 9 when it comes.
Crazy only dual SIM available from Samsung.

hmm... did you do a wipe of the phone and then flash the BTU rom or is it without any wipe?
Please help as voice quality is bad without VoLTE. i also have a dual sim note 8 with EE rom flashed on it. it was originally a BTU phone.
Hi Guys Im using a SM-G965N in the UK, when I try to register for the Pie Beta it give me the message "Your sim card doenst match the service provider software on your phone. This is common if you've changed service providers or if your phone and SIM card are from different country's" Im using the 3 network in the UK and the phone is LGu... Anyone have any work around..?
Anyone? I have exactly same problem. I got sm-g965n with LG Uplus carrier living in other country. Can i just flask stock firmware in my region to get rid of all the bloats and also is there a way for me to participate in pie beta? I can also swap this one with carrier unlocked SD845 version. Can i flash US stock on that one also?
Hi guys, I'm running into a similar issue with G965F device in Canada.
Here's what I've been able to piece together. Each device is a hardware variant and can use a specific set of firmware variants (sometimes called Multi-CSC). Your hardware variant is G965N. And if you look at sammobile for hardware variant, you can see the set of firmware available for this specific device. Unfortunately for you, there is ONLY Korean firmware for this hardware variant. For me, I have many more options but still no Canada!
It it completely inadvisable to flash the firmware onto your device that is not specifically tailored to your hardware. It's especially stupid when the firmware is tailored for an entirely different chipset (for example, Exynos firmware for Snapdragon hardware). But even if the devices use the same chipset, there may exist other hardware differences that will cause instability/errors/ bricks/unknown.
So as far as I can tell, we're all screwed. Have a nice day
Great news. I got into Pie Beta with my g965n. I was about to change my phone when i found LG Uplus sim card in my country. I put the sim card in and was able to register and download OTA. Now i am on android pie.

I found it almost by luck. I was at this phone store when i randomly asked from a lady selling smart phones whether she had Lg Uplus sim card or not and she said yeah i got few. You can have one. That is how i found one. I wouldn't be able to ship it outside country without reliable shipping service in my country.

Ran in to the same issue. Flashing in a Custom ROM helped.

Hello friends, I recently change the CSC flashing combination firmware.
My s9 plus its a single sim G9650 from ATT mexico but when the phone boot on binary mode onscreen say G9650/DS its normal? or its a dual sim version disguised by the carrier to a single sim?
thanks
Probably from the firmware. It most likely came from a DS model...
By the way, do you know if the Panamanian version can have its CSC change as well?

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy J8 from Australia because I lost my phone there. When I came home to India I found out that the Australian J8 does not support VoLTE (Voice over LTE) but I need VoLTE for my Indian sim card to work. So I went to the Samsung service center but they straight away denied any support since I bought this in another country.
The Indian varient J8 supports VoLTE but the Australian one does not even when both the phones have the exact same hardware. So its a software limitation.
Can anyone suggest any method I can use to install any custom ROM that'll support VoLTE.
I'm willing to install anything, root my phone or whatever it takes since I'm never gonna get any warranty on this. So I might as well try everything else.

Just download Indian firmware from sammobile and flash via odin, that will contain latest modem for your device. It might bring VoLTE, because I think its software problem.

I tried but it won't let me install any other model firmware. My phone's Model Number is SM-J810Y but the phones available in India have model number SM-J810G. So it won't let me install the "G" firmware. I get a failed message.
Do you have any other suggestion?

Hi, I wanted to change my ROM but I forgot the OEM. I am stuck with the FRP. Someone would have the U3 COMBINATION for the J810YDXU3BSE1
Please
Anyone tried flash BC52 model with BC72 firmware? i would want to flash SEA firmware on my BC52 model, is it possible without root just use new flasher.
i wouldn't.but i basically been flashing diff from from hk,sea,,ru and china. their all the same but china is more light as in you can by default remap the assistant button and also data un-enrypt is friendly
当然，XQ-BC72 Dual 可以刷入 XQ-BC62 Dual 或 XQ-BC52 Dual，但我无法反过来测试。
Of course, XQ-BC72 Dual can either be flashed into XQ-BC62 Dual or XQ-BC52 Dual, but I can’t test the other way around.
Un-encrypt is the first thing good from china XD
