Samsung Galaxy Active 2 German to uk - Samsung Galaxy Watch

I purchased this watch not knowing it was a German model so no Samsung pay. Everything else works fine.
model is SM-R820X RFAM816XXNA
SOFTWARE R820XXU1EUK2
TIZEN5.5.0.2
KNOX 2.5.0
Updated to this software with no problems. tried to setup Samsung pay and it starts but is for the German market so does not work here in the UK.
any help would be gratefully received. The watch does work fine except the pay function.

Samsung Music Hub not working in Australia!!

Hi all,
I bought my Note 2 from kogan a month ago.
It had the region in the Build.prop set as GB (Great Brittan)
I changed that to "AU"
But when I start the music hub, it says that its not available in my country.
I know it is available as I have it on my Australian branded Galaxy S2, and it works well on there.
Does anyone know what else I could change on my device so that the music hub knows its in Australia (I think it still thinks its in England or something)
Has anyone found a fix for this? as the isn't currently a Australian firmware for the N7100.
Cheers
Corey

Buying a Galaxy Watch in Korea?

Hi,
I'm planning to buy a Galaxy Watch in Korea, to use in France, because I'll have the opportunity to buy it for much cheaper over there.
I've read in forums about older Samsung watches that Samsung Pay might be region-locked. Is it true for the Galaxy Watch too? Is there a way to hack it to change the region, and change a Korean watch to a European one?
I think it is eloisant. I have a chinese version bought from Todydeals online and samsung pay is missing. When I press in the back button nothing happens and in settings is says there is no payment softwear installed. Please could someone give me instructions for how to change it to UK version if this is the fix. Cheers
no samsung pay on US version
i have model SM-R820 and haven't been able to find the samsung pay app. I have tried a few things, like updating OS, resetting the phone, but no luck getting app on my Galaxy Active 2 watch. Any ideas?

Galaxy Watch Active 2 44mm SM-R820 - Samsung pay (Aus)

I am purchasing a Galaxy Watch Active 2 44mm SM-R820 from overseas, but I am expecting Samsung pay will not work in Australia.
If I wish to change the country to Australia, what is the process? Do I need to download a new firmware?
Some years ago I successfully changed countries on my Gear 3 from German to Australian, but if I remember correctly, I downloaded Australian firmware..
Any comments would help
cheers

Hi Craig, I did the same thing as you and had no idea about watch regions. I managed to switch to Australia region by configuring the firmware. Check this video guide out

Note NetOdin was not able to detect my device even though I was connected to it hotspot in download mode. I used another laptop and it worked. I had enabled 'public network access' on the firewall for NetOdin on both laptops.
Samsung Pay and offline Spotify playlists now work.
I hope this helps.

I need that too, but when I try to install it says is not available in my country.
Hi, maybe it's because of your CSC ?
Is Samsung Pay available on your country? If yes, what's your Watch's CSC ?
I also bought one from Germany and change the CSC to make Samsung Pay working in France (CSC XEF instead of DBT).
I followed this topic https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm...nging-region-samsung-gear-sport-r600-t3771324

Hello i changed my Samsung Active 2 region on Korea. The change was fine and I just got updated to Vomax and ECG. But I dont have Samsung Pay app in the watch or the possibility of installing Samsung Pay in Samsung Wearable.i tryed to install Plug In from Google Play But I can't install it because of SIM card (registered in the country where Samsung Pay isnt supported). Does anyone know how to install Samsung Pay?

Hi, Samsung Pay is a feature available on the watch so there's no need to install it. And with Samsung's policy, Samsung Pay is only activated in certain countries such as the US, Canada, Australia, ... but there is no Korea even though Samsung is in Korea. I also moved CSC to Korea to receive tizen 4.0.0.8 for the LTE version and ECG worked, besides there is no Samsung Pay. So if you want to have SS Pay, you will need to change CSC to a country with SS Pay enabled
I have a Galaxy Watch 46mm made in Vietnam. I suspect that the CSC is preventing me from installing and using Samsung Pay on it. Anyone have the files need to flash it and set to Australia?

answer of my question from other topic may be close to you
Hi guys, after being some time without Galaxy Watch 46mm I purchased it again and my question is - is there a possibility to change the CSC region and to use Samsung Pay safely? I am asking this question because I know that previously that was OK, but after some updates it was not possible anymore. So is it possible now? and if yes is there any new and/or updated guidance? I will much appreciate your help. Thank you!
