If anyone else bought from Hong Kong the Dual Sim 6gb/128gb and are trying to use it in US. please let me know/help me with how to set up samsung pay and others (WiFi Calling being one). I tried to flash G955U ROMs without success.

i found a guy working at a shop in HK (I am in US) via email and paid them via paypal and paid for shipping (prepaid label), and he shipped it for me. luckily no custom duty.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Alcibiade:
Available in most shops in HK (I bought one). Not sure you can find it online with shipping abroad though

I didn't even know there was bloody 128GB + 6GB RAM, In Oz, Samsung Australia screws us by only offering 64GB + 4GB RAM:

http://www.samsung.com/au/smartphones/galaxy-s8/spec-plus/

Sigh, just unpacked & started setting-up this damn thing from JB HiFi & the person I got it for was like, "Oh, but I told you I

need

dual SIM", ugh, no they didn't!

Wondering if JB will take it back without whining too much & give me a full refund, they better, we've bought a tonne of other stuff from them!

And then where the heck am I going to get a Samsung Australia supported dual SIM S8+, ideally one that has these "even better" specs!

Does the Oz version as least have a SoC that's

just as powerful

as these exotic E.Asian versions? (excluding less RAM & Storage)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cecc500:

any way to buy it outside india?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
Is there a list of ALL the S8+ SKUs/variants somewhere, one that explains ALL the differences?

So that I can easily see which are dual SIM & the most specced-out/powerful etc.

Also, if I have to source an overseas variant in order to get dual SIM & the top specs;

Will Samsung Australia provide ANY kind of support/warranty_coverage?

Thank-you.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
What's it officially called, i.e. what's it's full variant name? e.g. SM-Gxxxxxx

Thanks.

SM-G955FD
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
No that's not the 128GB variant...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
The model numbers have no relation to the storage capacity.

The 955FD is available in 4GB/64GB configuration in most parts of the world, and it's also available in 6GB/128GB configuration but only in India.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
There is no G955FDx with 128GB eMMC + 6GB RAM...

The SKU that has that config, has a different model no: G955FZKGx

https://www.flipkart.com/samsung-galaxy-s8-plus-midnight-black-128-gb/p/itmeuggehq2umb7u

https://shop.samsung.com/in/galaxy-s8-plus-128gb.html
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
Lol G955FZKG isn't a model number. It's just an SKU for retailers to differentiate between the different colours and storage capacities available for the same phone.

SM-G955FZKGINS is for the Midnight Black 128GB S8+

SM-G955FZKDINS is for the Midnight Black 64GB S8+

SM-G955FZBDINS is for the Coral Blue 64GB S8+

SM-G955FZDDINS is for the Maple Gold 64GB S8+

Those are all stock keeping units (SKUs) for different colours and storage capacities.

I'll break it down for you.

SM-G955F is the model number (FD isn't considered a model number in the SKU)

'K' is for the Midnight Black colour variant / 'B' is for the Coral Blue colour variant / 'D' is for the Maple Gold colour variant

'D' is for the 64GB storage option

'INS' is the CSC for India

The last 3 digits will be different for every location, for Australia, the SKUs will end in XSA since that's the CSC used there.

On my S8+ which I bought, the Product code is SM-G955FZKDPAK

K is Midnight Black, D is 64GB, PAK is the Pakistani CSC.

It doesn't mention FD anywhere in the product code, only the settings app will show G955FD.

Hope this was easy to understand.

EDIT: Colour codes are different depending on region as well, here are the SKUs for the Single SIM GS8+ from Samsung AU's website:

Maple Gold: SM-G955FZDAXSA

Orchid Grey: SM-G955FZVAXSA

Midnight Black: SM-G955FZKAXSA

Notice they all end in XSA?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
Makes sense but the model no's not G955FD, as was originally claimed.

That is all I was correcting. I did say SKU, but then later accidentally conflated the 2.

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------

What's the 'Z' for? You don't cover that above, it seems to replace 'D' on many dual-SIM SKUs.

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

And 'G' stands for the 128GB storage option?

---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 PM ----------

Yeah was aware of the CSC/location string...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
955FD is never mentioned in any SKUs.

I have a 955FD (64GB Midnight Black) and here's what it shows;

The Z is part of every SKU, even on Single SIM variants. I forgot what it meant. Probably signifying that it's unlocked or something since Z is on all the unlocked and non-carrier variants.

Yeah, the letter before the CSC at the end is for the storage option.

D is for 64GB and G is for 128GB.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
Aha, that's all crystal clear now, thanks buddy, I swear I knew all/most of this once;

But my brain's increasingly like a sieve these days, too much coming in, so lots of lightly-used stuff gets turfed!

Or that's my excuse at least, hopefully I'm not just going senile... :rolleyes:

I started a new thread, if you have time to add your thoughts, it'd be very much appreciated:

And 'F' after the 955 = Exynos? And '0' after 955 = SD?

And '950' = S8? And '955' = S8+?

And 'G' before 95x = Galaxy series Samsung phones?

And 'SM' before the -G = Samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
SM = Samsung

G = Galaxy S series

N = Galaxy Note series

F = Europe / Middle East / UK / AU / Far East

FD = Identical to F, but Dual SIM.

The 950 and 955 part are correct.

Also, the 0 after the 955 doesn't always signify Snapdragon, it actually is the model number for the Chinese / Hong Kong variant. In the case of the S6, all variants were Exynos SoCs.

The G9350 was the Chinese S7 edge, G9250 was the Chinese S6 edge and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Sean Carr:
The SM-G9550 128GB Dual SIM is available on eBay and Amazon. Made in China with Snapdragon chip.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jalyst:
Yeah and? We'd already established that long ago, everyone knows that.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] PURFIT DESIGN:
I think it is single sim
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
Any update on this thread? I am in the US but looking for the Dual Sim version.

I understand the G955FD is the Dual Sim mode with 64GB ram and Exynos processor that is best suited for US customers.

What is the right model number for the 128GB version of the same model? Also, any suggestions where to purchase at the best price? Seems like that model is sold in India.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
The 6GB/128GB model has been launched in Brazil as well, I suppose it'd be easier to import one from there than importing one from India.

They also get the G955FD btw.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
Thanks - it's kind of hard figuring out the right product numbers.

I also found that Samsung Galaxy S8+ G9550 is Dual Sim from China but with 128GB storage and 6GB Ram. Except it has the SnapDragon chip.

Isn't there another model with the Exyonos chip?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
Nope, the G955FD is the only S8+ that comes with the Exynos chip and is Dual SIM.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
Thanks - did you buy your phone in Pak? If so how many rupees was it?

I think that phone maybe sufficient for my needs in the US but am having a hard time finding it at the right price, in just a few weeks some of the sellers raised their prices by a $100.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
I am in Pak, but I imported mine from the UAE since it was launched earlier there. I received it on 25th April 2017 and paid a total of 103,000 PKR, which is roughly $980 USD. Mine is the 4GB/64GB variant btw.

Hey Murtaza - I hope you can help me real quick on this question in like the next 1-2 hours.

I have this guy selling a Samsung Galaxy S8+128GB model that he says he bought from Verizon which is a carrier in the US. He specifically asked them for the 128GB model and they told him it is factory unlocked.

He says it is dual sim and that it is 128GB. What model could this be? On the back of his phone it says this:

Galaxy S8+

CE 0168 !

SM-G955U FCC ID: A3LSMG955U

Designed and Engineered by Samsung Manufactured in Vietnam

I am not sure if this is the right model to buy for dual sim capability and higher storage.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
That's definitely not a Dual SIM.

G955U is the US single SIM Snapdragon variant sold by all 4 major carriers in the US. It's not even available with a 128GB storage option or a Dual SIM option.

It only comes in one spec which is Single SIM with 4GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
Thanks that what i thought - but he keeps insisting and has listed his ebay listing in that manner as well. I will pass on that listing to avoid the hassle

appreciate your quick response.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
Yeah it's definitely not the dual SIM one. Those are hard to come by in the first place anyway, the last thing you need is to get scammed for one with a locked bootloader and only 64 gigs of storage.

Glad I could help. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
I just read another of your post and unfortunately have realized that the second sim slot only supports 2G -- ugh

this puts a dent in my plans -- i had the one plus line up before but was so excited to see Samsung introduced dual sims -- but limiting it to 2G is a shame -- is there anyway it can be unlocked to its full potential?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
That was actually before I tested it.

On my S8+, SIM Slot 1 does LTE/3G/2G, whereas Slot 2 does only 3G and 2G.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
So a quick question on it - are both slots like LTE capable? For example on the OnePlus phones both slots are LTE capable but if you enable like Sim2 for data then Sim1 limits to like 3G and vice versa.

I want to be able to switch between the two SIMS in making them primary for data. For example if I make SIM1 for my data, then I would want LTE there and then if I make SIM2 for my data I would want LTE there, I understand the other SIM would just get limited to 3G.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
Yeah they can be swapped around. If you set SIM 1 to LTE, it'll set SIM 2 to 3G and vice versa.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
Thanks, I just ordered one from Kogan's US website, i thought it would ship from Australia but it seems like it will come from Hong Kong, I hope it all goes smoothly.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
How reliable is the place you ordered from?

It's odd that the 955FD stock would be available in HK, hopefully you don't get a G9550 instead.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] joogle:
I've read Kogan is pretty reputable, they are an Australian company. They did have the G9550 listed for less, hopefully they send the right one. My order details show the right one, will know in a couple of weeks once it reaches me.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] kluifje:
I did my research well now and I discovered that there are 2 versions of the dual SIM with 6gb ram and 138gb room.

One version is easier to get and that is the version with the snapdragon chip and that is the SM-G9550.

The other is equipped with the chip from Samsung the exinos chip and that model number is SM-G955FD, that is the version I look up ,because that is the version that supports allmost all the available lte frequenties.

That model seems only available in Russia, India and Brazil.

You can find it on the Samsung , but use a VPN to make it visible on their website.

It seems that Samsung put a lot effort to prevent that customers from other countries buy that phone.

---------- Post added at 02:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:16 PM ----------

I mean 128gb rom

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 PM ----------

Another creapy thing is that a lot sellers on eBay or other websites say that they have the G955FD version while it is actually the G9550 version with a lot less LTE frequenties.

Hello all.,,

I checked and read many thread slowly and steadily ,but couldn't find a good solution to root this phone 3T.

I just bought this Beautiful Device runing so smooth but with Hands tied too hard unable to run many apps and many ads and Bloatwares..

Thought to Root this device ,but all are mostly either Oxygen 3 or Marshmallow or 7.0. Version of ANdroid..and DW Error,is also a major concern to look out..

So Please help me to root this device running O2 4.1.1 (I literally dont want to change the stock,as of now) and Android 7.1.1 ,some simple steps...

Thanks and Regards

I'm about to get this phone so I've been doing a lot of research myself. It looks like you can follow the steps in this thread and you can flash supersu through TWRP once you've unlocked the bootloader.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Didgeridoohan:
Unlock bootloader.

Flash TWRP.

Flash your preferred root zip in TWRP (SuperSU or Magisk are two good choices, I prefer Magisk).

That's about it...

i too tried the above method,,But I got struck with Logo of TWRP and got enabled only after 6 Hours.. But to my fate,,i'm still running on Stock recovery.. Not on TWRP !!

Use the latest official TWRP (currently 3.1.0-1). Works just fine.

What I would do if i was you.

Unlock bootloader

Flash TWRP

Flash latest Magisk 13.2 zip

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
Hey,

Is this method still valid for rooting the 3T?

https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...wrp-root-nandroid-efs-backup-and-more.475142/
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
Yes, that is still valid, more or less. Might be a more current version of blue_spark's TWRP (official TWRP is on 3.1.1.2) although the link only says 3.1.1-x, so I don't know what that means. But probably won't make a huge difference.

Can't see what version Magisk is linked (my office network is blocking the link). If you choose Magisk, flash latest version 13.3, especially if you want to hide root (from Snapchat, banking apps, etc.). Older versions of Magisk will fail to hide, due to recent changes Google made to SafetyNet.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
And what if we want to flash this beta to a brand new device?

http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3t/oneplus_3t_oxygenos_openbeta_12/

Should we first unlock the device, then install the TWRP recovery, then flash this beta rom and then root?

I was wondering if there is any plastic film to put on the back of the phone? Also maybe on the sides.

I have a case on the phone (ringke) and dust and lint gets in behind the phone.
[LG G6 Accessories] lg3FTW:
Your best bet would be a phone skin. As far as the sides they come pretty well protected with sections of film front the factory I never take those off. Also consider nightly taking 2 mins before putting phone on charger and taking case off wipe phone down and case before reinstalling the case. If not a phone skin is gonna be your best bet. They make them clear
[LG G6 Accessories] hero4eva:
I was also wondering the same thing. I once used a tempered glass back for my Samsung s6 edge once but that interfere with the case. I guess plastic would be a lot thinner. I'm also interested in a clear plastic for the camera lens.
[LG G6 Accessories] lg3FTW:
Really thinking that anything over the camera lens is going to cause issues. Truly. But you could get one of the universal plastic covers and cut it to fit
[LG G6 Accessories] hero4eva:
Was thinking more like the dbrand warps, I've seen they have a piece that covers the camera lens with hole cutout for the camera and flash. Now if I can find something less fancy and cheaper than dbrand it'll do me.
