Samsung Keyboard

Hi, is it possible to change my Samsung keyboard? The phone is bought from Hong Kong and I have the model number SM-G9650, so I think that is why the Samsung Keyboard layout is different when I click the "!?#" symbol. I cannot also install the Samsung Keyboard from Google Play Store, and any apk files of Samsung Keyboard. Attached are screenshots of the layout of my current Samsung Keyboard and the layout when I click the "!?#" symbol and "123" symbol.

How can I change my Samsung keyboard with this keyboard layout? Or is there a Samsung Keyboard apk file that will work? Or which firmware should I flash with Odin so that I could get an international version of the Samsung keyboard? Thank you.

Is this for dual sim?

Does the same method work for a dual sim SM-G9650 while keeping the dual sim capability when flashing, let's say, a SM960U1 USA multi sim firmware?

Im a US expat in China and was more or less cornered into buying a new phone. I picked up the new S9+. Will doing this give me a more inclusive (e.g. google play, English apps, etc) version of the phone I bought without affecting the hardware?

Firmware to use to change samsung keyboard

Hi good day, my phone model is SM-G9650 with CSC HK and active CSC TGY, that is why i think my samsung keyboard is in chinese version as shown in the attachment. What firmware and CSC can i use so that I wil have a samsung keyboard that is international one? I live in the Philippines by the way. Thank you.

Flash ZTO Firmware

I had the same issue, I downloaded firmwares from different CSCs using Samfirm. I live in the US and was looking for as close to USA firmware as possible on the SM-G9650. I flashed the Puerto Rico(PCT) CSC and found it to have Claro Bloat. I then downloaded the Brazil(ZTO) CSC and found it to my liking. The Keyboard is the same as US models, not the Chinese version with the unfamiliar alternative characters. So far seems to be working well on T-Mobile. Only caveat is after reflashing bootloader/recovery, my RMM State has gone back to Prenormal so I assume I have to wait 7-14 days to reflash TWRP and regain root. Hope this helps anyone having the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] renuac:
Rmm and change csc

Is there an CSC who doesn't have the RMM Disabled/Normal post flash factory?

After flash left the state of normal rmm or normal disabled by default?

All CSC of Brazil reactivate RMM Post flash!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] d0ct0race:
Alright thank you. Will try Brazil ZTO. Will I be able to receive OTA android updates after flashing this official stock thru odin? Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] YayItsDave:
Why isnt my csc changing after I flash a different firmware? My phone is the Latin American (Panama - TPA) and when I tried Brazil and Mexico variants either the CS remained or changed to read TPA/TPA/ZTO or TPA/TPA/TPA all I want is Samsung pay to work.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] xhhb:
Same here

Did you manage to achieve that?

Btw: do you have the Dual Sim version?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] YayItsDave:
single sim and no, i was never able to change it. im now trying to see the chances of hardbrick if i install 965u rom on it since the hardware is the same
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] orlandson:
Don't do it. You need combination firmware to change CSC.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] guastucci:
I did everything correct to change to ZTO, but in the info appears PTA/ZTO, PTA/ZTA. Is this correct?

G9650 (Open China) to G965U1 (unlocked)

I'm trying to change my S9+ Snapdragon "International Version" purchased on Amazon to a US Unlocked Version, in hopes of installing Android Pie when it becomes available here. Firmwares involved are:

G9650ZCU3ARK1 (currently installed)

G965U1UEU3ARK5 (new - want to install)

I'm using Odin3 v3.13.1_3B_PatcheD, and after repeated tries using different Odin options always get errors/FAILs such as .....

Secure Check Failed : PIT or

Re-Partition operation failed or

Odin error (can't open the specified file ) line 1892

or ...

Should this work?

Do I have the correct new firmware for what I want to do?

If yes, what should I do to make it work? (steps and/or links to same)

I have the Snapdragon SM-G9650 (International/TPA(Panama) DS) running G9650ZHSASA1/G9650OWO3ARK1/G9650ZCS3ARL1

I have T-mobile and i'm trying to change my CSC to use VoLTE and also be able use Samsung Pay.

I've been doing a lot of research but there isn't any clear way or guide. Is anyone able to direct me?

I believe I know the steps, just confused as to which Combination file to flash and such...

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kekistaneerefugee:
I've got the G9600 on T-Mobile. There is nothing that works. I bought this hoping I could try out Samsung Pay and then root it later but the CSC simply cant be changed even with the combination files. They've really got these damn things locked down tight. Its better to start with an exynos at this point since its cheaper and still doesnt have samsung pay.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] joeyakaspce1130:
That's weird... I've seen a bunch of comments on here saying they flashed a combo file & ended up with some other CSC. Man I hate this phone lol
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kekistaneerefugee:
Yeah im not sure how they accomplished it. the combination files don't match up at all with any of the available firmwares for the csc that I want so there isn't much I was able to do. It always just defaults back to ttt and tta on the two devices that I tried.

Hi all,

Anyone else noticed this on their PH-1?

I'll get a notification eg new WhatsApp message. I'll open the app or click the notification to read my message. When I leave the app, the notification remains in the status bar. I have to pull down the notification shade and exit again to clear it.

Very odd behaviour. Happens with every app I've got (eg FB, Gmail, text message, etc).

What would cause this and any ideas how to fix? I've not got any mods etc running. I am rooted and using the latest P beta.

Best, Neil

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Bolondron:
Hi everybody:

I need to use 900MHz on 3G, is the only freq that uses my country carrier on 3G (no backup freq, very smart :().

My question is: will my AT&T H910-10m gain access to 900Mhz on 3G if I download US996 kdz on it? (US996 uses 900Mhz, among the other 3G freqs). Need advice from someone who really knows [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] , this phone here is expensive & there are no warranties of any kind, reason why I have to be very careful with what I put & do with the phone. I want to try to avoid root.

Any help will be much appreciated, thanks in advance
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
The h910 has the most bands out of most of the variants so changing your firmware probably isn't going to help
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Bolondron:
But in 3G this is what it has HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100, the US996 has HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 & CDMA2000 1xEV-DO, it has the only freq used in my country for 3G and there is no backup freq, 2G no problem, 4G not available. I only want to know if flashing this fw will enable the 900Mhz (the speed increase over 2G is awesome). If 4G became available maybe i would need to do something but the only carrier in my country do things in a very strange way, as you may have seen already, and perhaps they use for 4G some channels from US996, very likely.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
OK, I know there's a thread in the forum to go from the h910 to 996, carefully read and follow all the steps and you should be good to go
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Bolondron:
:good::good::good: thanks a lot, I've read it before is easy to do, so I only wanted to be sure, for not messing my phone. There is another way but it requires root, if this way doesn't work, i'll try the other one

Flash back NoCheckRecovery and do a factory reset from settings menu. Your problems will be gone.

Hi Everyone please can someone assist me I got a new handset, its a Cell c branded android 7 dual 3G SIM device it says it has a Spreadtrum 7731c processor. My problem is when I activate roaming my phone connection roams and I can call on the other network, but as soon as I turn on the data roaming switch it turns itself off and as soon as you exit the screen when you go back you find network roaming de activated.

I contacted the service provider and have the correct Apn and have even returned the handset and got a brand new one and it is doing the same.

Any advise? If I take the sim out and put it in a another phone it roams on 3G perfect, were it won't on both of the new handsets I have had what can I do?

The best thing is return it to seller, if is possible.

You can unlock bootloader, but it is a paid service and then probably flash GSI fw, there are no factory images for Nokia 6.1, so you can't flash the original fw.

ANY CARRIER NO CONTRACT PLANS ALL IN ONE PLACE​

[IMG="Mager Carriers"]http://9to5mac.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/iphone-5-proto-all-carriers.png?w=704[/IMG]

I'm looking for a no contract phone plans where users receive cell phone services in an inexpensive, flexible way. These plans are recommended for people seeking the most economical way to have a cell phone. The first thing I did when choosing a cell phone plan is to find out what companies have decent coverage in my home and in the areas I frequent.

When it comes to cell phone plans, you can go with one of the big cell phone providers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon) or opt for a smaller company's (Mint Mobile, Ting Mobile, Red Pocket and FreedomPop) they even have their pros and cons. After doing a little research I found many cell phone plans you can purchase threw eBay, Amazon and Best Buy at a much better price then going directly threw the carrier or there website.

If you have a good plan or using a plan listed in this post, please let us know your experience. Thanks!​

MintMobile Bulk Pricing On Wireless!

Purchase 6 months at $15 a month Mint SIM include unlimited talk, text, and 2G data, with the choice of 2GB, 5GB, or 10GB of LTE data and tethering. Currently, the three-month plans have been discounted to the 12-month plans rates as a teaser offer, making them a better deal than the six-month plans. I like that Mint SIM allows tethering for WIFI calling, many of the other plans I have found don't include tethering for this price.

Mint SIM doesn’t offer domestic roaming, but it does have international roaming plans. It offers a flat rate of five cents per outbound text (inbound are free) and 25 cents per minute for voice calls in nearly 150 countries. Mexico and Canada’s rates are discounted at two cents per text and six cents per minute of voice calling.

Mint SIM - Official Website

3 months of wireless service (regular price $23/month)

2GB of 4G LTE data per month; speeds reduce after monthly allowance

Unlimited talk, text and data delivered on the nation’s fastest, most advanced 4G LTE network

Includes FREE international calls to Mexico and Canada

With our BYOP program, bring your own unlocked GSM phone (you love it, cracks and all)

Prepaid SIM card includes standard, micro and nano sizes for that perfect, Cinderella-like fit

Ting Mobile

[IMG="Tang Mobile"]https://www.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/nexus2cee_tinggsmsim-668x376.png[/IMG]

Ting Mobile Pay As You Go!

Ting uses Sprint and T-Mobile carriers, If you're not looking for unlimited use and don't use much data, then Ting could work for you. It looks great if your like me as far as phone use is concerned, I usually use WiFi for calling when I need to use my phone and internet purposes. It looks to be a good alternative when you need a phone for traveling in case of emergency and still be able to connect to WiFi when you reach your destination. if you can deal with a few drawbacks, you can save a lot of money.

Ting offers customization levels of service after paying a flat $6 monthly line charge. Usage is categorized into tiers: The first 1 to 100 minutes, for example, cost $3, the next tier $9, and the next $18. There are also tiers for SMS and data usage. The company’s complete rates are on its official Ting website. A moderate usage plan of 100 voice minutes, 100 texts, and 1GB data would end up costing $28 on Ting.

Ting offers free domestic roaming for voice and text, and international roaming for GSM phones in numerous countries around the world. Pricing for international roaming can be quite high, however. If you aren’t bringing your own phone, Ting sells devices directly for a lump sum or financing via Affirm.

If you’re thinking of moving to Ting, the company says it will pay 25 percent of the early termination fee (ETF) from your current carrier up to $75.

MintMobile (Formerly MintSim) For me!!

I don't use too much data.. And T-mobile has good service in my area. SO I've totally fallen in love with MintMobile [tmobile mvno]! you can pay in 3/6/12 month increments. I pay the 12 month for about 180ish? Which averages out to about $15/mo.

The "catch" is that this is only for 2gb data. Unlimited minutes/texts though. Some people have had issues testing the "unlimited" part but I don't use my phone for too much other than Reddit haha.

They also support wifi calling!!!

btw. they also have 5gb and 10gb plans.
