Hi,
I got SGWA1 SM-R500 already with the following SW versions:
Tizen 4.0.0.7
One UI 1.5
SW: R500XXU1DSL1 / SM-R500NZDAXEZ
Knox: 2.4.0
SE for Tizen: 2.0.0
TIMA: 3.0.0
I searched a lot in this forum for the last 3 days but wasn't able to find all answers I'm searching for. So I would really appreciate if someone can give me a complete set of answers:
I want to use Samsung Pay, which is not available in my region - the Czech Republic. I understood that I need to change the region and probably it will be more complicated because of newest firmware version.
So:
What is the best region for the most up-to-date FW version with possibly all functionality. XAR-USA?
How do I do it? How do I change my region? Downgrade to ASAD version or trying to fiddle with "combination FW"?
Is there a way how to change the region but still receive future OTA or once I flash the firmware with Odin, there is no way back to OTA?
PLEASE, if possible try to describe all steps as detailed as possible.
Thanks a lot, this forum and people here are truly giving our devices superpowers!
I am interested too, how to change region on 4.0.0.7?
I have a little problem with my active 1 after the battery change there was an automatic update in which in the middle of the process the battery ran out and I entered the booting mode and did the recovery then my watch is out of firmware can someone help me please

Hi all can somebody help installing Samsung Pay for India
I connected watch through sdb connect and when i run
command launch_app csc-manager.csc-pre-configuration it says successfully launched but nothing happens on my Galaxy Watch verion R800XXU1DSL1 tizen 4.0.0.7
Used SDBstarterKidv1
Downgrade...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/galaxy-watch/update-gw-r800-t3936370
Simple use older Firmware as DRK2... DSL1...
If you choose XAR for USA... then choose this Firmware:
Code:
R800XXU1[B][COLOR="Green"]CSE1[/COLOR][/B]
IMHO here SDB Commands still work...
In theory somehwere Thread or Post...
In newer Firmware like DSL1 Samsung increased Security...
Best Regards
After downgrade and changing the region to enable Samsung pay.
If I again update to the latest firmware version will the Samsung pay still be there?
Yes, if you changed the CSC to get Samsung Pay, it will still be there after an update. As far as I know, the availability of Samsung Pay is CSC bound, not firmware bound.

Good question... according to your "incomplete" info... your active CSC could be TMH...
Then it seems OXA region.
Code:
R805FXXU1FSK2/R805F[B]OXA[/B]1FSK2/R805FXXU1FSK2
To be sure... simple enter magic Code:
Code:
*#1234#
And compare with my text...
Best Regards

Hi guys, I'm from Brazil, and my FW is the R810XXU1DSL1.
I need to change the csc to ZTO... same problem, nothing happens.
Can some one help me?
What downgrade do I have to do?
You need to downgrade to any firmware older than DSL1 with NetOdin, as described elsewhere on this forum. Then changing the CSC will work.
Hi. I have the same problem. I'm now going to downgrade with the procedure in this topic.
I just have a doubt about which firmware I should use. This are my current info:
Watch: SM-R800
One UI: 1.5
Tizen: 4.0.0.7
Current FW: R800XXU1DSL1
Knox: 2.4.0
Bought on USA
Need to enable Samsung Pay in Brazil (I believe need to be changed to ZTO)
Can someone please which firmware I should try? First and second options?
Thanks.

On phones, usually downgrading can result in brick.
In the galaxy watch this does not happen can I downgrade to a previous version without fear of it happening?
any update yet guys
i am stuck with tyhe same problem.is there a way solution yet?
Hi All,
I've been following this prodigious forum for a long time, and, like many of us, i'm trying to change the default CSC of my galaxy watch 42 LTE.
I followed the procedure via SBD, formally it was successful, but like many of us, the watch did not show the list of countries.
So... this is the idea:
downgrade to first firmware via NetODIN (should be R815FXXU1CRK7), than use the SBD procedure in order to select my CSC (that should go on first firmware) then I proceed via OTA to update the latest available firmware.
This is my actual watch configuration:
AP: R815FXXU1FSL3
CP: R815FXXU1FSL3
CSC: R815FOXA1FSL3
Stock firmware I'm searching for: R815FXXU1CRK7
Should be a Europe free operatore device from DBT, desire to switch to ITV.
... and this is the issue:
I tried quite a lot but I still haven't been able to find the first firmware with which the watch was born, also on the XDA forum, but for the R815F version there doesn't seem to be my specific firmware ... could you help me?
In your opinion could it work this solution? Thanks for the contributions, so as to help the many of us who have the 42 LTE - R815F version.
Thank you,
Strategia
I dig up the subject, I have the same model and in 2 years I only received an update, I live in France but I received it with the csc oxa. I have the exact same firmware as you. And I never received an update.
Hi guys,
First post, so please let me off if I haven't followed protocol properly. I have been looking at all the other threads and posts and I have come to the conclusion that this is possible, but I need some guidance:
Bought the watch second hand. Samsung Pay isn't available. Samsung Tech help believe the watch isn't from the UK. I also believe this to be true, as when it is reset, the first language to appear is German, before it syncs with the phone and changes to English.
So I would like to change the region from Germany to England to get Samsung Pay enabled.
I have downloaded NetOdin3
I am capable of connecting to the watch in boot mode through wireless.
I have downloaded the combination firmware and stock firmware from https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm.../samsung-galaxy-watch-mactive-2-gwa2-t3968437 where adfree posted the links.
This is where I am stuck. I am unsure if these are the right files for the UK, because that thread was to change it from Germany to "ser"
From what I've read I need to change some text in the combination firmware, but how do I do this, in NetOdin3? or some other program.
Secondly what do I need to change it from and to? I understand its to get the region from Germany to UK, but what is the region code for the UK?
I appreciate I am a total beginner and have probably just asked some real basic questions, however after reading the thread about the guy who flashed his 820 with 830 firmware and bricked it, I'm a little more worried about getting something wrong.
Cheers in advance
You have to change from DBT to BTU..BTU is UK CSC.
Best regards

OK, thanks.
So do I need to edit the files that @adfree linked in SDP?
or are those files ready to go and do I need to edit some files off the watch somehow?
Cheers

Hi all!
I have the 40mm LTE, (SM-R835F) with Tizen 4.0.0.7.
I want to change region to USA (from Sweden).
I have COMBINATION file for my watch, however i dont have Stock Firmware t get the AP, BL & CSC in NetOdin.
Can someone please help me with that part? Can i extract my own - then how?
Or should i use a Stock Rom with 4.0.0.8 - where do i find it?

Hi guys!
I want to change the region to my active 2 LTE from US to Mexico so that I can use my Mexican carrier. I got it thinking it was globally unlocked but it looks like it's locked to the US.
I've seen some tutorials but they are for older versions (Tizen 4). This watch is on Tizen 5.5.0.1.
Can anyone please help me out with this?
Thank you very much
Looks like Mexico is OWO Region package... with CSC:
TCE
Step 1.
We need Combination Firmware...
Attached is slightly "modified"... only removed folder + 1 file...
Step 2.
We need OWO package of SM-R835F...
Best Regards
