For Brazilian owners of Galaxy S9/S9+.
The Brazilian variants are SM-G9600 (S9) and SM-G9650 (S9+), same as the Chinese version, using Snapdragon 845 and 128GB of internal storage. The Brazilian firmware country code is ZTO, if you search the firmware using SamFirm it will point you to ZHU firmwares (it is considered a Hong Kong/China firmware but this is a generic firmware).
Current S9 (SM-G9600) / S9+ (SM-G9650) firmware for Brazil (ZTO):

You mean, flashing a G9600 ROM in your G960U device?
I'm not sure if that will work.

I saw the 9600 rom is a 128gb and dual sim version, but the 960F is 64gb and single sim as the 960U is.
Do you think the 960F ZTO will work in the 960U?
thanks

I don't have experience with flashing Roms from different variants in Samsung devices.
I recommend searching this information with users who are experienced at flashing with Samsung devices before doing any action.

S9 no brand, can't update to android pie

Hi guys! Proud possessor of a galaxy s9 dual sim no brand.
When I check for updates via OTA or smart switch there is no update available. But android pie is out!
What could be the reason for this fact? Any advice?

Bro the update is out in some regions only... I'm stuck on november security patch and still no december update for my region... You should wait

If you cannot wait, flash the Pie firmware manually

I'm tempted! Thanks for the replies guys!

I would give it to the end of the month and see if the official update rolls down. I think the beta has run its course and the final is dropping in some countries already. You may or may not get it quickly as Samsung seems to be all over the place on how it updates its phones.

What version of LG G7 should i buy for UK?

As title says which version of phone should i avoid on fleabay as i want to buy this phone. No one seems to answer this specifically :/
thanks

bump

You need european version, so G710EM (64GB) or G710EAW (128GB)

i get that i need the european version but the american handsets will work too and i've been told to avoid the Tmobile version at all costs.
i just needed to now which is the best variant from the american/canadian ones!
cheers

Canadian AWM version. Support more lte band (for UK and Europe) then USA unlocked ULM

thanks siley

only g710EM

now im confused???

Get the 710em that's what I got when I brought mine worked fine

I told him EM or EAW is best for Europe, but he want model from America so Canadian AWM is better.

I got the LM-G710EM version

I think is a crossflashed device. Mine is EM too, but came with open EU rom and it is a TIM device (italian carrier). Amazon things...
U can flash any firmw u want with lg_up 14-15, but with no ota support due to restrictions. U can always search ur region with ur imei in internet after a simple search on google, but if the device is from carrier... I recommend u a clean open eu kdz over any carrier firmware.

Hong Kong variant bootloaders are unlocked. Contacted Wandamobile based in Hong Kong a few days back and they claimed the SM-G9860 and SM-G9880 they offer are Hong Kong devices. The CSC on Hong Kong variants is TGY. Based on my research most retailers offering these models are actually selling the Taiwan variants, CSC BRI which is also bootloader unlocked. Some users have flashed TGY firmware on BRi devices with mixed results. I would recommend the Hong Kong variant but use due diligence with the retailers, they may not know or misrepresent what they actually stock. Stay away from the China variant, it not compatible with numerous apps.

I asked wondamobile - and they say galaxy s20& 20+ Hongkong version, bootloader is locked ?
anybody buy a galaxy s20 snapdragon from wondamobile in last time, which Hongkong firmware -and was positiv to unlock bootloader?

Mine is also from Wondamobile and it's unlocked. But it's a korean snapdragon model g988n!

nobody here with Hong Kong version Galaxy s20 (Not + or ultra, note etc) and unlocked bootloader from wondamobile?

Thanks for the info, but please give more information.
What V30+ model do you have? LS998, US998, H930DS, H930G?
IF one of of the latter two, which region firmware are you using? Like for H930DS, are you using India, Australia, Hong Kong region firmware?

Nothing new on the surface. Even the security patch is November, 2019.
I don't notice any changes.
