Good Morning All,
I appreciate this is a little away from the development side (well it is and it isnt, depending on whether I have to hack it lol) but would really appreciate the expertise from the group.
I have been asking in Samsung and EE and neither can answer the question - as usual just fob me off to the other party...
If I go into Argos or similar store in the UK today and buy this "Samsung Galaxy Cellular 46mm Smart Watch (SM-R805)", take it home and pair it up with my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge which has a SIM only 4G EE Contract (in UK), will the watch now work on its own, via 4G? - This is my main question/concern.
2nd question - do I need to get EE to do anything and/or pay them extra every month?
Its very important to me that the watch can pickup telegram notifications and emails without me having to have the phone on me (hence buying the cellular model). EE just want to sell me the watch + £14 pcm contract as they dont sell them outright.
From reading posts in this group all morning, I am getting the impression it should work out of the box without having to visit EE or pay them any extra. If Ive understood the various threads, the only complications is when pairing a watch with a non EE phone and/or in a different country? Thats when firmware changes and editors come into play
Thanks in advance for your time, Mark

Hi everyone,
My brother, who lives in the Philippines, gave me a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-9005) so that I could possibly unlock it and use it in the U.S. on T-Mobile. The issue is that the phone was purchased from the Smart network in the Philippines (like how we'd buy a phone from a carrier in the US under contract).
I was wondering if anyone knew of a reputable merchant that could provide me with a working code to unlock the phone for use with my T-Mobile SIM card? The suggestions that I've read about have less-than-decent reviews, particularly in regards to their money-back-guarantees, customer service responsiveness, and the hoops they make you jump through before (not) returning your money for failed unlocks.
Thanks in advance!
Hello everyone,
I've recently moved to Germany and had my U.S. spec Ford Edge with Sync 3 shipped over. Unfortunately, navigation doesn't work and the Germany Ford dealerships have said there's nothing they can do aside from removing the entire system and shipping it to a third party for over $1,000 and 2 weeks worth of work to get it to function. I'm of the opinion that there's cheaper (found things for around 249 euro but still requires removing the entire unit and shipping it to another country) and easier ways to do this but have no idea how.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
US Spec Ford Explorer
Where you ever able to find a solution? I ordered a US Spec Ford Explorer and thought it would be an easy addon to include EU maps.
hello, I'm making EU Sync3 USA maps without pulling out the radio. The radio condition must have the NAV icon. Price: 300Euro
Hello!
I have a question.I am interested in buying a phone Samsung galaxy s7 active from USA and I was wondering if I can use it in Romania on VODAFONE.
Thanks.
As long as its unlocked you can...however due to limited support I'd recommended buying another phone closer to home.
Remember if warrenty on your phone craps out...then you have to send it back to country of orgin to claim...inconvenient for someone like you
I have a friend who's travelling to the UK in a couple of weeks and she's looking to pick up a new phone.
Used phones here seem to be substantially cheaper then they are Stateside and an A52s can be got here as cheap as £200 ($270) if you're patient and shop around.
However, her service plan is on Verizon and she wants to stay with them, I know Verizon use CDMA but the move to 5G seems to be changing the compatibility matrix somewhat.
She lives in NJ so has anyone used a European A52s in the US and is coverage/compatibility an issue?
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys, I'm seeing a lot of posts coming from Z Fold4 owners who bought their phone on the refurbished market and that can't set up Wallet.
Those phones are often listed as coming from the country where they are being sold. But Samsung Wallet (Pay) doesn't lie and will only be able to get set up in the country of origin.
Now in Europe, most Z Fold4 come with the EUX firmware (except for a few service providers firmwares that remain there and there).
My question is : Is there a way to know the country of origin of a Z Fold4?
The only way I've found so far is to ask a Samsung representative the country by giving out the IMEI number.
Isn't there another way..?
Thanks a lot!
I can't set up Samsung Wallet either, and I bought my phone one the Samsung Store during the pre-order period.
The issue is that I live in France but Wallet seems to think I'm from Germany, for no reason, so I can't achieve the enrollment.
I just think they messed up something with the new CSC policy.
I told them but nothing has been done since August.
I have a S21U on the side, and everything is working perfectly on it, same location and SIM.
So don' count on it and use Google Pay if you can.

Thank you! So you bought the Fold4 on the Samsung Shop while living in France?
Then there is definitely something wrong. I'll send a report as well, in hopes that the issue gets looked at.
Yep Samsung Shop France.
There is something wrong with the EUX CSC.
