Samsung galaxy S20 Ultra 256gb Chinese to English rom please!!! - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Hi Folks,
I have model SM-G9880 256gb version imported from China. Trouble is I want an english rom and I can't find one that works with the 256gb version. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I tried loading the SM-G988B version but would not load.
Found: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s20/development/samsung-s20-ultra-sm-g9880-t4058499
But failed to load with Odin not sure why?
Is there a SM-G9880 English rom anywhere?

SM-G988B is for Exynos devices, it isn't compatible with your Snapdragon variant. The SM-G9880 Hong Kong firmware has full English support and you should have no issues with the installation. You can download on Samobile.

The Brazilian variants are SM-G9600 (S9) and SM-G9650 (S9+), same as the Chinese version, using Snapdragon 845 and 128GB of internal storage. The Brazilian firmware country code is ZTO, if you search the firmware using SamFirm it will point you to ZHU firmwares (it is considered a Hong Kong/China firmware but this is a generic firmware).

You mean, flashing a G9600 ROM in your G960U device?
I'm not sure if that will work.

I saw the 9600 rom is a 128gb and dual sim version, but the 960F is 64gb and single sim as the 960U is.
Do you think the 960F ZTO will work in the 960U?
thanks

I don't have experience with flashing Roms from different variants in Samsung devices.
I recommend searching this information with users who are experienced at flashing with Samsung devices before doing any action.

Thanks for the reply. We have version n9700, is it possible to play sw on another? Maybe Australia? USA? We have a snapdragon. But we have other frequencies. I understand I should have bought a better model ? but it was cheap. Here in the Czech Republic is Note with exynos and I don't want exynos.

SM-G9860 (BRI) Taiwan CSC change to SM-G986B (PHN) Netherlands

Hi guys,
i've been wanting to change the CSC of the S20+ I bought in Taiwan. I wanted to have the snapdragon variant of the S20+ but now it seems some features are not included in this version compared to the European models of the S20+.
I am missing integrated Hiya service for example.
Is it possible to flash the firmware for the European models on my Taiwanese model S20+?
If yes... how?
Thanks

You cannot as they are 2 different models. However you need to change the csc from BRI Taiwan TGY Hong Kong to get Hiya service and any additional ones like Volte and WiFi calling. Please search and you will find thread detailing about how to change your csc.

How to convert firmware

Hi everyone,
I bought a S20+ 5G from USA but I live in France.
The firmware is : SM-G986U so my SIM card is not compatible on the network.
I think that the France firmware looks like SM-985F.
Is there a way to change the version of the phone to put it in France ?
Thanks for your help,
Mike
No way. its impossible

Samsung note 10+ SM-N976B flash to Hong Kong ROM?

Hi all,
I've tried to search but no luck specifically to my region
I bought a SM-N976B from a friend and i couldn't use Samsung pay.
I brought it to the Samsung store and they said i have a different region.
I ended up searching if it is possible to change the region by flashing, I've got mixed results and I downloaded Frija and couldn't search the firmware i want to use...
I'm currently using this model SM-N976B and would like to change the firmware region to HONG KONG so that i could use the "Samsung pay x Octopus".
Could anyone please help me point me in the right direction?
Kind regards
Mike

There is no Hong Kong firmware for your device, if there is no Hong Kong firmware to flash, you can't change the region to Hong Kong.
If you can find a Hong Kong firmware for another model number of Note 10+ 5G that has the same hardware specs as your model number, you might be able to flash that firmware on your device or at least parts of that firmware, such as the modem.img and the system.img. This isn't guaranteed to work, it could brick the device if the bootloader or modem from the other device doesn't get along with your device.
