I found out there're 3 different models here.
North America model
Europe / Asia model
China model
Since we are close to China, I think I'm getting a China model. What's bugging me is I don't know if custom ROMs posted in OP3 Android Development sections will compatible with China model. I came from a device which have 14 different models with single-dual sim & regional mixed it's all so confusing that I ended up flashing incompatible ROMs several times. Can anyone help me confirm that please?
Just got my Chinese model today. Unlocked bootloader, flashed OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_011_all_1607052050_0e5983ace5314161 and rooted. Everything seems to work fine.
It came with Hydrogen OS (and full of Chinese crapware)

Could you flash a North American model baseband to test if the China model and US model are essentially the same? Both of the two are named A3000 after all.

I use my phone in China and Canada so I need dual version. Is hongkong version the best choice of me?Does Canadian carrier support 5g to hongkong version?
I bought a G7 on aliexpress because it was very cheap ($ 139.22), but I had not paid attention that it was a Korean variant. In https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev on suported devices it only mentions the European version [LMG710EM]. I would like to know if I can perform bootloader unlocking procedures and installing custom roms normally in this variant and what is the difference between this variant and the European one.
Hello flashers.
Question here.
I have a US unlocked version G781U1/DS. Is it possible to convert to G781B/DS? The reason for this is European B version has dual sim support, whereas apparently it is disabled on US models. Otherwise why would Samsung put DS into model name for U1 and snap in a dual sim tray?
I think both devices have same hardware specs.
Will it work?
Thanks.
No, it will not.

Why would you want to do this? The U1 version is a multi-CSC firmware and should work as needed in any country. I have not been able to secure a FW set for the S20 FE5G as of yet, but if it was available, it could be confirmed or denied that the specific CSC you need is contained within. Again, I'm rather curious about the issue you're facing to lead you to want to do this. Technically, you should be able to flash any Snapdragon CSC that is built for the same device. That is speculative as ive not confirmed this, but that is how it has been historically from the S8 onward
I have tried all CSC versions available in CSC menu, none of them enables dual sim. Note CSC available are most for US carriers like TMB and ATT. There is XAA (international apparently) available as well but does not enable dual sim either.
Hi,
Are there restrictions on which firmware you can use on a device? I mean could you use European (carrier or international) firmware on a device originally shipped to the US, for example. Is it just a case of missing some features or does it break the phone altogether?
it depends on the model number and Region. for example the US version model number is F926U / F926U1, F926B is the International Version, F926N is the Korean Version... you can only put firmware on from the same region(model) as yours. The following link has more info on model numbers and what region they are for. https://www.phonemore.com/models/samsung/galaxy-z-fold-3/
