I am traveling quite a bit between China and Europe and the phone works fine in Asia and when I am in Europe I am using a SIM card from Vodafone the Netherlands.
This works fine in the Netherlands but when traveling in France, Germany, Italy the roaming function does not work. No Data is received or can be transmitted.
Voice etc is fine and all roaming settings are fine too. My CSC settings show OZS_TGY.
Since the SM-N9750D/S is a Snapdragon version I am cautious with loading other firmware although it is unlocked.
Do I need to load other firmware or are the CSC codes the issue? Please help.
Due to the virus outbreak going to Hongkong is not so attractive.

Not 100% sure, but i feel like i remember that i read that you may need to enable data for Sim 2 (assuming that's where the Netherlands sim is)
Check for sim settings

Thanks for your reply,
Much appreciated.
I tried using both and switched also between Sim 1 and 2 but did not resolve the issue.
I downloaded the TGY firmware and will do a clean reinstall with ODIN. Hope that will help.
But thank you for your input.
also try manual network selection if set on automatic
Dear Raul,
I think I tried all common tricks to get the roaming going.
My idea is that it needs a different CSC code but not sure if this can still be done with ODIN?
Also Samsung feedback is vague on this,
Thank again Raul,

I am using a Dutch Vodafone Sim and Vodafone has some special arrangement with the roaming partners in the rest of Europe.
This might be in the CSC code but my phone is from Hongkong having TGY code. So not sure if this is the reason.
So when you come to Italy all might work without problems.
I could not find a way so far to change or adding CSC codes without rooting.
If some one else knows, please let me know. Would be appreciated.
Hello
I have same samsung note 10+ sm-n9750 with TGY CSC code and everything working very nice.

Thanks but your phone seems to be exynos chipset, N9750D/S is a Snapdragon. I was told you can not use firmware of exynos and put it on a Snapdragon phone. Am I right?

UPDATE 26 JULY 2020
I am in Italy now and I inserted a Vodafone IT. The phone work fine and I noted that over here I have a 4G+ band aggregation while in USA with my ATT SIM I don't and this is really strange because with my old Note 8 ( N950F DS) I use to have band aggregation and both of the phone have the same bands! Someone can explain?
Maybe an old topic, but I just try ....
I live in the Netherlands, have a SM-G7810 ( S20 FE Snapdragon, original TGY but changed tot CHC due to I need Call-recording). SIM-card is Vodafone Netherlands.
In the Netherlands all works great, data and voice.
When I go to Germany, voice works great, but data is nor working. Ofcourse tried everything in settings.
I did not try it with another SIM-card, so I'm not sure if the issue is only the CHC/TGY original phone in combination with Vodafone, or that it is the phone in general used in Europe with any simcard and try to have data on in roaming.
Turn on roaming

viva is a gsm network so it Should work. However the fire phone works with a nano sim, make sure they provide it in viva, if not, you will have to cut it. Check the gsm bands for viva and check the phones band at gsm arena.

Next time i don't want exynos I buy another brand.
Maybe you must wait for some firmware update. In my s9+ , voLTE only start working after one year [emoji2361]

There is no issue with 4G and there were no issues with 4G phones. If they had the suitable bands, they could connect to any 4G network worldwide. But with 5G constructors had the good idea to enable only specific carriers...

Snapdragon is out of Europe so... if it's like you say , unless Samsung decides to enable swisscom 5g on is snapdragon firmware I think you're f**ked up.
In my s9+ the firmware works better in swiss is the Brazilian ZTO... my was from Hongkong and change.

I put my simcard in simtray 2 and it worked. But I also flashed Taiwan FW (instead of HK). Since I don't have 5G where I live, I had to move to another place, and I forgot to take a pin with me to switch my card.... So I cannot say at the moment what caused 5G to work (change sim tray or flash FW). But I will know it tomorrow. The only thing I can say, is that it works...

Its nothing to do with the software as the BRI and TGY software are the same and the difference is that TGY csc allows 5g to work. It is a known issue that 5g only works on sim 2.

Same here. I bought a G9860 from Hong Kong and 5g it s not working, it s showing but I cannot connect. In Sim 2 I have SD card. Maybe we have to wait for June upgrade. Or maybe somebody have solution?
I like to list this device to my cacombos.com website so everyone can check supported 4G bands and combinations but i need modem log file. Here is instruction how to get log file: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...ons-from-your-android-phone/#Qualcomm_devices and you can send log then to: https://cacombos.com/contribute .
If you can connect phone via diag you can then export carrier_policy where could see how 5G is enabled.

You will not get access to all 4G/5G bands but you will still get high speed data and calling if your carrier supports roaming. You can otherwise buy a local prepaid SIM and still get fast data (but not all 4G/5G bands will be available)
Thanks a lot!
Hi guys,
I am living in non-supported country according to Google however, I managed to get German eSIM and my original, local eSIM.
Just then I've realized that all tutorials about attaching eSIM to watch requires my phone to be attached to it first, but OnePlus 9 doesn't support it... so... do you happen to know any workaround for it?
It is not dependent on your phone having an eSIM. But what you need to have is a SIM in your phone from a supported carrier: https://support.google.com/googlepixelwatch/answer/12652073
Else you won't have the option to install the eSIM on your watch. You just need it for scanning the QR-Code for your watch, then you can insert your original unsupported SIM into your phone.
I have the same setup. Oneplus 9 Pro. Orderd a Vodafone UK SIM on Ebay and with it in my phone installed the eSIM from my carrier on my watch. Only problem i can't edit the APN on the watch and the APN from my provider isn't recognized by default. So i have no LTE data on the watch, just calls.

so you think I can have 2 different numbers from supported carrier (1 prepaid, 1 esim) and then load 1 esim from my local carrier? I mean, I insert 1 prepaid from supported carrier, than load esim from supported carrier, than replace supported esim with local esim? Or I am one step too far?
also, what do you mean by "i can't edit the APN on the watch and the APN from my provider isn't recognized by default". What APNs watch has saved?

Yes you can load a "phone esim" on the watch. But it has not been tested for very long.
You only need to insert supported carrier sim in your phone then you can load your local carrier on the watch. No need to load the supported carrier on the watch first. If your carrier sets APN automatically by just inserting sim-card in your phone the watch supports it. If your carrier makes you setup APN manually on your phone you wont get LTE to work on the watch only calls and text will work.

I got a Vodafone UK SIM today. And I found it can roam to my region (Hong Kong). And I made my eSim from a local carrier work on my Pixel Watch.
I think it won't work if the SIM can't roam to your region because the option to scan QR code didn't appear until the Vodafone SIM connected.

For me it didn't need an active connection on the Vodafone SIM. How i understand it, is that it even works if the SIM isn't activated at all but then you need to have another active Internet connection (WiFi).
Not all the supported carriers can activate the QR Code method, I tried the Softbank(Japan) sim(non-activated), and it just keeps connnecting to the Softbank server, so it failed. I will try the AU sim later.
And I have another sim from Taiwan Mobile which is also non-activated, it just went to the QR Code page without any problem.
Just got a Vodafone UK eSIM(€$ 8.5) from an online travel sim retailer on Shopee Taiwan, will try it on another Pixel tomorrow.
Also ordered a Vodafone DE sim from the same retailer too, waiting for delivery.
The Pixel Watch also support FeliCa, so you can use a Japanese sim + Google Japan account to add the Mobile Suica to Gpay in it.

It depends on the sim's ICCID, DE/UK is started with 8949/8944, I will know if they're goog or not when I get them.
Just make sure the sim is issued by Vodafone DE/UK, not from 3rd party roaming sim retailer, otherwise the ICCID will be different.
Update: the eSIM I bought in Taiwan is from Vodafone UK, the ICCID is correct and worked as expected

Oh wait my bad. It was actually Orange Travel Sim i tried, never mind.
So like the title says, i dont have 5g in mt 2k€ phone, what gives? is samsung lazy with the firmware updates? or is the international unlocked phone actually hacing some locked bands? any way to unlock n75/n77 bands? i tried my sim in my australian netgear m6 pro in estonia in my location and it works perfeclty, other phones, older samsungs also work fine, but fold 4 just doesnt seem to find anything, besides competing isp tower and saying unknown frequency and 5g sa, if im not mistaken the int fold 4 should have everything? sa, nsa, all bands, etc? no? anyways maybe someone has a solution for me what firmware to flash or what to do, i rma'd my phone but i am 99.9% sure that samsung validated "repair" center wont be able to do anything like that as i have had different issues with different samsung phones before and they wont flash you anything than baltics firmware
Fold4 has 5g and it's working perfectly no need a firmware update. Witch csc are you using ? Witch firmware ? Did you check and search your provider in settings ? 5g/4g/3g/2g is selected ?
I'm not living in a big city in France and have great signal
5G from Orange Flex (Poland) works perfectly.
The same model. No issues. 5G is ok in Germany.
Same here. Latvia, 5G works fine.
the issue is in the firmware side, one of the operators doesnt work, every other operator 5g works, already got samsungs answer that they are working on a fix for it
