[Samsung Galaxy Watch] stef7EAmis:
I did iiiiiit! For SM-R820 (Active 2, no LTE, 44m)

Hi all! I want to thank you to [MENTION=1017159]tb_[/MENTION] [MENTION=1030585]adfree[/MENTION] [MENTION=10234061]hashirajaz94[/MENTION] [MENTION=10348645]RobinGB[/MENTION] for their's ideas, hard work, links, files and also tutorials. It was so easy to follow.

And also I want to thanks to everybody who contribute to this thread. You guys are awesome!!!

I have a SM-R820, what it means I have a Galaxy Watch Active2, with Bluetooth and Wireless, but no LTE. My region of the watch was ROM (Romania), where I think Samsung Pay will come in 10-20 years.... maybe longer....

(for who's curious, we, in Romania, we have Apple Pay that works with some local banks, and Google Pay what works only with Relovut)

In my setup, I see some things that I think it have to be clarified for the future people that want to change their region.

First, DISABLE THE FIREWALL!!!! I was stubborn, and I thought: " Well it will work with the firewall on default, right?" Wrong. You will not be able to connect to odin.

Second. When you are in the Wireless download mode, BE QUICK. You have to:

- disconnect from any wifi networks on computer

- connect rapidly on your watch wifi network

-open netodin

-wait

and voala, you are connected.

Also, BEFORE ALL THIS!!!! I install samsung Plugin (you have the link below, if it isn't working, thy another version) It was just a precautionary measure.

Here, Tb_ did an useful thing. Backup the files at the 17th step. But... It doesn't work whie you are in the ”shell”. So first, write "sdb root on", then backup the files, then write "sdb shell" then continue with step 19.

Also <watchip> is the ip adress of the watch. You can find it in Wifi settings, after you connected to a Wifi network.

Here, at the step 26 you just have to type ":wq" (without inverted commas = ") It took me a while to figure it out :))))))

IT WORK WITH TIzen 4.0.0.7 with no problemooo.

The link that are in this thread, are for Tizen 4.0.0.6

When I entered in recovery, I want it to check the version. It downgraded himself to Tizen 4.0.0.6, and then when I finished the set up, it ask me to upgrade to Tizen 4.0.0.7. I think is funny and interesting at the same time that if you change just one file (CSC) with netodin, it will change the version too.

Also, in this tutorials with can see something like " sdb root on" Don't be scared by that, like I was :))

It isn't the root from AndroidDevices, it is just a linux command to modify some internal files. And I think in this care, the warranty is safe... (i'm not sure).

Also these are the links that I used in my setup:

Combination Firmware for SM-R820:

Stock Firmware for CSC:

1*) NO, there are not the same, careful :))

2*) I think they are links for a Poland version, but it works fine anyway.

Samsung Pay Plugin:

(Install this before set up, and then in the app it will ask you to update it after the set up)

Also, don't be scared. About some red text, and a little bit of lag, or Samsung Pay doesn't work on the first touch.

We, Romanians, have a quote: "With patience you can pass the sea". Just have patience :))

I want to say THANK YOU again to everybody, you help me a lot with Samsung Pay. Now my watch is set for United Kingdom, and I have to wait my Curve card to begin my payments (yupiiiiii)

And also, sorry for my broekn English >))))
