I wanted to chime in on this thread. I just installed the German variant of the g935f firmware and used the above metioned versions and it worked fine.

- current framework: 2.7.51

- current SPay: 2.7.03

One thing I did have to do was go into the framework and spay settings to grant them all available permissions. I restarted the app and it worked great. I didnt do anything other than a flash from the UAE firmware to the DBT firmware. a side note... the membership cards must be added manually as there is a bug that does not allow you to search for them
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mkoyskip:
When I originally installed SPay (over a year ago) the current versions just wouldn't work, so I needed to install previous versions then just update.

I mentioned this previously but just wanted to clarify: I had to revert back to MM, get SPay working -> then upgrade back to Nougat.

Glad it worked so painlessly for you though!! You might post where you got the apk's and exactly which versions/files you used for those still having issues.

Later. And thanks for the info.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Priesjd:
I just straight installed the aforementioned versions from sammobile. I was shocked how easy it was.

I downloaded the latest DBT firmware using the samfirm application which downloads the latest firmware direct from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SuperBoUDS:
There are two versions of 2.8.03 Framework in the apkmirror, which version have you tried?

280302000

280305000

I also updated the framework to 2.8.03 and met the problem that samsung pay can not work. So I restart into Safe mode and remove the Samsung Pay app. After that I could install 2.8.02 version of the framework and 2.8.04 Samsung Pay app. When I launched Samsung Pay app, it tell me update to latest beta version and after that they automatically updated to 2.8.05 and the framework updated to 2.8.03 (280302000). Though the app still informs that there is an update in about section, it can work normally.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jnrfalcon:
2.8.03.5 I doubt 2.8.03.2 is better... The last confirmed US version is 2.7.76 as far as I know...

---------- Post added at 06:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 AM ----------

How did you remove samsung pay from Safe mode though... Or could you extract the 2.8.05?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jnrfalcon:
2.8.05 didn't help at all... still force update. How were you able to remove/downgrade samsung pay framework...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SuperBoUDS:
First, uninstall SPayFw via adb: adb shell pm uninstall com.samsung.android.spayfw

It will fail and inform "Failure [DELETE_FAILED_OWNER_BLOCKED]"

After that, reboot your phone in safe mode. Go to Settings -> App and check for Samsung Pay Framework. After I reboot to safe mode Samsung pay framework is'n there anymore :laugh:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] TarheelGrad1998:
It worked! Finally got back to this. As you suggest, I used adb uninstall, got the error, then rebooted to safe mode. SPay Framework was gone. Still in safe mode, I installed SPay Framework 2.7.51, then rebooted. 2.7.51 stuck, so I installed SPay 2.7.03. When I opened it said "failed to connect to server" but I rebooted again. It launched, and I have successfully added a card! Now, to find something to go buy. :)

Thanks for all the help everyone!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SuperBoUDS:
Congrats. Maybe I will write a tutorial for install Samsung Pay :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] TarheelGrad1998:
Seriously, this needs a pinned post with all the pieces throughout this thread that can be kept updated with versions and links. I spent way more time on this than I thought I would, and most of that just figuring out and finding all the pieces. Plus we just proved you can fix it if you mess up without starting over.

Just a quick update on the latest updates that work with Samsung Pay. I'm in the US using XSA with T-Mobile and I have Samsung Framework 2.7.55 and Samsung Pay 2.8.05.

They are working perfectly and I am also able to use AMEX. However, no gift or membership cards working with this setup. I tried to sideload Samsung Pay 2.8.74 which I believe the lastest in the US but it was forcing me to update and it would just close so I went back to SP 2.8.05. Hope this helps somebody. Thanks everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Unfortunately, this doesn't work for me. I have uninstalled SPay, and force-closed SPayFw. Then tried the uninstall of SPayFw using adb and did, indeed, get the "Failure [DELETE_FAILED_OWNER_BLOCKED]" message. However, on rebooting into Safe Mode, SPayFw is still there, still version 2.8.03, and I am still not able to install any earlier 2.7.x version due to the usual "Package appears to be corrupt" error on trying to downgrade. I have also tried the adb uninstall while still in Safe Mode, but no luck with that, either. Any other things to try?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SuperBoUDS:
Uhm, in this situation you can factory reset your phone . It will absolutely work :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Yeah. But I am trying to avoid that.

What would be useful to know is if there's anyone who has a US version of the SPay apk working with the reward points and that works with SPayFw 2.8.x. If so, perhaps you could be kind enough to upload your SPay apk?

I've re-tried the various 2.7.x versions of SPay and I get the points menu back, but before I can use the app, I am forced to upgrade to the "newer version" which then takes me back to the UAE version. And all the SPay 2.8.x versions on apkmirror already appear to be non-US versions.

If you've never uploaded an installed apk before, here's the easy way to do it. Install the Amaze File Manager. Click the three-bar menu at the top left, and choose App Manager. Scroll down to Samsung Pay. Click the three-dots button on the right and choose Backup. The apk will be saved in /sdcard/app-backup/Samsung Pay_2.x.x.apk from where you can upload it to a web server (e.g., apkmirror.com or elsewhere) and then post the URL. You could also upload a known working Samsung Pay Framework too.

For those of us who are stuck with the UAE versions, we either need a US SPayFW > 2.8.03 or even > 2.8.06 or we need a US SPay that happens to work with the 2.8.0x SPayFW versions already on apkmirror.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SuperBoUDS:
I can confirm that Samsung Pay 2.8 works in US. Below is my screenshots.

Apkmirror will have two 2.8.03 versions, use the 28030200.

I also turn off auto update in Samsung galaxy app to prevent it update Samsung Payment framework.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
And you have the Reward Points working? If so, that's great news. Update: I guess you do, I see you have SPay 2.8.05, so I tried that and see the Rewards Points menu. However my SPayFw is still insisting there is a new version and giving me no choice but to upgrade again to the UAE one.

I must be on SPayFw 2.8.03 (280305000) already as it isn't letting me install the 280302000 version. Guess I'll have to wait for a 2.8.06 or 2.8.08 with a 2000 suffix...?

Do we know what these version number suffixes mean? I mean the 2000 and 5000, and I see also 1000 and 4000 in other uploads. Perhaps a region indicator? Or just a sub-version number as in 2.8.03.02 and 2.8.03.05?

I also have the Galaxy Apps auto-update setting turned off. Got myself into this mess by manually updating when it started giving me annoying indicators of the new version. That was before I discovered that doing this update was a Very Bad Idea Indeed!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SuperBoUDS:
Yes, my reward points work as usual.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jhunkab:
Can confirm. AmEx is also working. I had my cards already added and updated over

Spay 2.5.1300123

Sfw 2.7.1201000

Updated Sfw first, then Spay Apk

Bonus benefit, Samsung presented my older cards for quick activation - cards that I had added before my last wipe out

Now at

Spay 2.8.0500000

Sfw 2.8.0302000
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] gr8177063:
Update... I'm on XSA and I have Amex and membership cards cards working but no reward points. I have Spay 2.8.74 and SFW 2.8.08.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jnrfalcon:
None of your software are for USA market. And reward is only available for USA and Puerto Rico softwares. The current versions are SPayFw 2.8.03.2 and SPay 2.8.04 or SPay 2.8.05(beta).

Transaction Invalid Card Error Message when using Samsung Pay

I have Germany DBT loaded on the phone Android 7.0. I followed the instructions on how to get Samsung Pay and Samsung Framework downgraded. My current version of Samsung pay is 2.8.04. My Samsung framework is 2.8.03 It allows me to add a card successfully. Then I contact my bank to activate and Samsung Pay states it activated the card. The problem I am running into is when I go to use Samsung Pay at the terminal, the cashier states to me that it is an invalid transaction type after I use Samsung Pay at the terminal. I have tried in several stores, which no luck of Samsung Pay working. Is there anyway out there that would know what would be causing that. By the way I have a Camera, Location, SMS, and Storage permissions set. I am sorry if this question has already been answered. I tried to look for an answer, but could not find one. Just curious could the fast check out in settings that is enable be causing the problem. Or is it with my bank? I am afraid to call Samsung pay and ask because I sideloaded the app and believe they would just tell me that it will not work. My model of the phone is SM-G930F:confused
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] luke1985:
Update.

I cleared cache, then I cleared data for the Samsung Pay App. I added my card again, then I telephoned my bank and told them to make sure that the other Samsung Pay account that was linked before I re added the card was deleted. The Samsung Pay app now operates correctly.

I tested it out on my Samsung Pay at a terminal, the madam told me "I don't think it will work, we don't have Apple Pay.". I then stated, this uses a magnetic field and it worked after I opened my quick pay for Samsung Pay (of course unlocking it with my fingerprint) it yielded me an error to re scan. So then, I put my phone back up to the pay terminal and it worked. So if anyone had or is having this issue, try this at your own risk.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Latest from me. Still on XSG, the SPayFW downgrade procedure does not work for me. I am still stuck on a UAE version of SPay - it does work with a US card and payments do work in the US, just no reward points. Was waiting until a US SPayFW version > 2.8.03 became available in the hope that I could upgrade without having to wipe/reset the phone.

The other day I was, once again, forced into an upgrade with an Accept or Exit choice; this took me to SPay 2.8.74. However, then it immediately took me to a second forced Accept or Exit upgrade of the "Payment Processing Engine" or some words to that effect. That upgraded SPayFW from 2.8.03 to 2.8.08. So, now I will need a US version of SPayFW > 2.8.08 if I am to "upgrade" without resetting the phone.

To Samsung I would say: you really need to release a version that allows users to choose their country of SPay registration. Locking it to the phone's CSC is the wrong approach especially when you are selling your phones to travellers at international airports (which is where I purchased mine). Please update the software to allow user choice of SPay region.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jnrfalcon:
There's a 2.8.08.2000 out on apkmirror though I have no idea if it's USA version. Downgrade spayfw seems impossible on 7.0. I've tried everything I can find. PS: factory reset won't remove spayfw... Only flashing factory from via Odin will work...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Yes, I saw that, but unfortunately only after I had accepted the forced update. I had no choice but to accept it as I was at a store going to make a purchase and I did not have enough cash or the physical card itself. Following this, I am now carrying the physical card again so that when I next see an update message, I can say no, then go home and wait for the new version to be uploaded to apkmirror and hope it's a US version.

You can look at the binary sizes to get some idea of what version they might be. For the SPayFW 2.8.03 2000 and 5000 versions, the 2000 is a bit smaller and we know that's a US one. Maybe it is the same for the 2.8.08 ones. For the SPay app itself, the US version binaries are a good bit bigger, probably due to them having the rewards points code.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jnrfalcon:
The 2.8.08.2000 is significantly smaller than all previous versions... So doubt it is US version.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jnrfalcon:
Update. I decompiled the 2.8.08.2000 and found files and code for gift cards and loyalty cards. So I installed and have confirmed that it's working and offering full functions except for Gift card purchase as usual.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Interesting thing happened today...

As a reminder, I am in the US but still on XSG and stuck with the UAE version of SPayFW/SPay for now. So I do not see any Rewards Points or Gift Card screens.

I made a purchase today and received a notification that I had reached Silver Level!

So, despite not being able to see the Rewards Points, it seems that SPay is still counting my transactions and keeping my points going!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
My SPay has started nagging me to accept another new update, presumably to the SPayFW 2.8.26 version that I now see on APKmirror. This time, I have not yet let it install and, fortunately, SPay is still working even though I haven't updated.

Now, the 2.8.26 on APKmirror shows as 2082606000 which I am guessing is a non-US version (I believe the 05000 and 06000 versions are non-US). Can anyone confirm if that is a US version or not? Or, does anyone in the US have a US version 2.8.26 that they can upload, please?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] pilotdog68:
I will admit everything in the last few posts is over my head, but maybe I can get some help.

I am in the USA on AT&T, G935F Nougat up to the 10/1/17 patch. Samsung Pay Framework 2.8.08 is installed with no option to uninstall. I have tried sideloading different Samsung Pay apk's and it seems to work initially, but then I can not get past the "Verifying Card Information" screen. After I have entered my first card info it just sits there spinning.

Is there a confirmed version apk I should try? Or do i need to flash a ROM from a different country?

Edit: I bought my phone used, and apparently I currently have a TPA csc.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Update here. XSG phone, had SPayFw 2.8.08 non-US with SPay working in the US with my US card, but not showing US Rewards Points.

Saw the APKmirror SPayFw 2.8.10 (2081002000) version and decided to give it a try, hoping the -02000 suffix does mean a US version. Framework upgraded successfully. Then installed SPay 2.8.05 which is a 67Mb package and confirmed earlier as being a US version. On starting it, I was initially greeted with the Samsung Rewards screen, then taken to the initial fingerprint and PIN setup page. However, it would not proceed beyond that page, it did not respond to any attempt to set either the fingerprint or PIN. On exiting and restarting the app, it then popped up the dreaded "a new version is available" dialog with only Cancel and Install options and no way to continue without installing. I said no, deleted SPay and reinstalled 2.8.05 again. Same results. Also tried 2.8.09 which is also a 67Mb package, also with the same result.

In the end, I said yes to the pop-up for the new version. That installed SPayFw 2.8.22 and SPay 2.8.92. These versions are not showing the US Rewards Points screen and are requiring me to re-register to Pay UAE.

Sigh. Looks like a full phone wipe and reset may be the only way to get the US Rewards Points back. Unless Samsung eventually releases a version that lets us choose which Pay Region we want to register to.

To pilotdog68, since I don't have a US phone, I can't advise you. Hopefully one of the folk here with a US phone version will.

Spay Mexico?

Hello,

Is there any update on how to get promotions for the country that you are located?

I'm in Mexico and spay was just released here. I have an SM-G935FD with firmware and active CSC code XSG. My current spay version is 2.8.92 and spay fw is 2.8.22

The phone came with the spay app installed so I just opened and it ask me if I want to download and install the UAE version. I put yes and the installation seems to go well, I even could add a credit card with no problems at all. I haven't try to actually pay at a store though.

My only problem is that when I open the app I only see UAE promotions and of course there is not rewards options.

I'm hesitant to flash because it seems to work now and I don't want to mess it up.

Any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xxhorseriderxxx:
the US promotions aren't worth it; I've got the same setup as you since they forced my phone to update to the ROM appropriate spay app. My MST payments work everywhere with credit cards, except rewards and gift cards. Interestingly, rewards points work if you use the American gear s3 pay app; I've redeemed rewards points through that. According to the S8 forums, you can no longer flash out of region firmwares, so be prepared to be forced into the American unlocked version for your next Galaxy S phone if you want to continue using Spay.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Munra6:
Thanks for your comment!

My SPay version was updated to Version 2.9.33 and SPay FM to 2.8.60 while I was sleeping :( . The app still opens correctly. What I couldn't do is to add a debit card of the same bank that the credit card I already had added, it says that this card is not supported or something like that.

Hi, does the latest US version of Samsung Pay now work on the G930F with the factory ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Well, I can report that I have finally been able to successfully "upgrade" my UAE XSG phone back to a US-version of SPayFW/SPay without reflashing the phone's CSC. I now have the US rewards screens again. As I'd thought, I have indeed been accumulating points all these months when I was stuck on the UAE SPay version, and old points have been expiring, too!

I upgraded both SPayFW to version 2.8.72 (287201000) and then also SPay to 2.8.25 (282500000), both from apkmirror. The key to getting it to change back to the US version was to clear both apps' caches in the phone's Settings >> Apps >> Samsung Pay Firmware >> Storage >> Clear Cache before doing the app upgrades. Then, after upgrading, when I run SPay, there is no more forced upgrade to latest UAE version again! Of course, erasing the apps' caches means having to re-enter all cards again afterwards.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xxhorseriderxxx:
didn't work for me; the framework installed just fine, but the Samsung pay app errored out saying the apk was corrupt
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jaiy:
Try uninstalling the SPay app then installing the new one. You can uninstall the SPay app, but not the SPayFW.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Mahdiswe:
I have done with both (HOME_CSC & CSC with wiping my data). I got the same result (CSC showing BTU which is UK -& IRE- unbranded version). I used to get until trying to add a card using the OJV (multi-CSC ROM). But with this BTU version I get "connection error" at the very beginning of starting the app & when I click "START".

Even though, when I go back to OJV, somehow I revert back to Nigeria. I am looking for how can I choose a specific CSC from the multi OJV ROM. But again, I am guessing that I will need to select a CSC that is from a country that already have SamsungPay active in order for mine to work.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jhunkab:
I am in US. Did you flash all components of BTU firmware or just home_csc? Try all components, if not done so earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Mahdiswe:
Yes, ... however after many trials it worked! and with OJV rom too!

OK, here is what I have done ..

- installed BTU with "re-partition" option in Odin (but I think even without it will work)

- installed OJV with home_csc WITHOUT selecting "re-partition" option in Odin << this has failed twice & never worked

- installed OJV with csc WITHOUT selecting "re-partition" option in Odin << however this did wipe my data.

So in conclusion, I think below will work:

1- Install BTU rom with csc (not home_csc) and select "re-partition" option in Odin

2- Install OJV rom with csc (not home_csc) and DO NOT select "re-partition" option in Odin

I do not know why .. but after doing above, I now have UAE as my CSC and not ECT (Nigeria). And SamsungPay Works!

Thank you all for your help!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rydah:
Awesome, can't wait to try. By OJV rom, is that a CSC?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Mahdiswe:
[MENTION=1256436]Rydah805[/MENTION] please let us know if that worked for you...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rydah:
Will do. In a couple of hours, wife already mad at how much time I spent switching from the T-Mobile variant to the G935F. Lol

But I'd the OJV another CSC? If so, what region is that?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Mahdiswe:
OK, Get the OJV rom using SamFirm tool (I have attached it here for you), you can get more info from the original post at (here).

1- Enter your device name in the model field ("SM-G935F" for S7 Edge) & "BTU" in the region field then search. You will get the BTU version.

2- Click "Download" & wait until the download finishes

3- Click "Decrypt" after the download finishes

Now you have the BTU rom ... extract the zip file & you will get 5 files, use them with Odin as described earlier (AP with AP; BL with BL; CP with CP; CSC with CSC).

Flash that as I described ...

To get OJV:

Also Download OJV rom as I explained above using "BTC" in the region field. This will give you the OJV rom. do as above with it to download it. Then flash it into your device as explained in my previous post.

I hope this was clear.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rydah:
Thanks, will report back soon. ???
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rydah:
