"The Orange network isn't supported on your watch" :crying:

I followed the guide, got the meta-data fail message but everything went fine if not.

Originally I changed the CSC to XEF for France but the watch wouldn't update. Also it would say that Orange isn't supported.

I redid the guide but this time changed the files in notepad to OXA. Everything went smooth again and I got excited as the phone correctly installed an OTA update. But when I went to add an eSim, "The Orange network isn't supported on your watch".

Any idea what I am doing wrong? :confused:

Kind regards and thanks for the file uploads!

Questions

Hi all,

I'm new and have a few questions.

I have the R825F watch and i bought it in Hungary where I currently live. I love the watch but I would really like the Samsung Pay to work.

From my understanding from previous comments is that this trick might brick your watch and then you're simply f'ed? If you brick it will there be a way to restore the watch firmware again?

Is there a(nother) safe way to set my region to another country?

Also, can I use the combination firmware file from the Samsung site? I could only find R825FU version.

Also, I have LTE set up via esim with a Hungarian service provider.

Will this still work if I set the region to USA? Will I lose that functionality?

Hope anyone can answer my questions, thanks!

[MENTION=1030585]adfree[/MENTION] what to do
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Link83var:
Hello,

I have a SM-R825F watch purchased on amazon.es, but i live in France. I tried to change the CSC to XEF with this method, but it didn't worked. I also tried the method in this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyaGf31T6Xc

After all the steps, no lte and no Samsung Pay.

I've redone all the tutorial multiple times, but still the same. Also, the CSC is XEF when i pull the two files (meaning that the changes i have made on the first attempt should apply...). I did the pull/push operation every time i tried a new attempt.

Then, i flashed an OTA which showed up on the watch and Samsung Pay was finally available (but incompatible with my bank... :mad: )

I can't activate the LTE : The Orange network is not supported on your watch."

What have i done wrong ? How can i activate lte on my watch ?

Thank you ! :)

Hi mate, that's not what a said :), what I said is that the LTE version of the Galaxy Watch isn't available in PT, only the Bluetooth one - so I had concerns if the CSC change would help.

That being said, I can confirm that LTE seems to be working after changing the CSC. I managed to have one card registering to Vodafone. It doesn't actually make phone calls or anything because no plan is set, but I'll be taking care of that tomorrow!

Thank you.

EDIT: I have some updates from my carrier. They say that my phone MUST be compatible with VoLTE and WiFi calls to activate the eSIM on my watch. Unfortunately, my Zenfone 3 (Z552KL) is not... Can you confirm that it is a prerequisite ? Or maybe it is carrier specific ?

Guys, I ran into a problem.

I've flashed SM-R825F with the files in first post (except the combination because for that I've used adfree's file).

I have changed the region code to BTU (UK), because I think that's included in the package, and contains SPay.

After successfully doing this, my product codes did not changed, they are still

AP: R825FXXU1ATD1
CP: R825FXXU1ATD1
CSC: R825FOXA1ATD1

Is this normal? (I also don't have SPay).

But the watch was paired to my phone, and I have reinitialized with the same phone. Maybe it prevents this region change?

I started the process again, and when now pulled those 2 files from the watch they contained my edits (BTU).

I have no idea what's wrong, but I know of someone who has this BTU firmware and it enabled SPay for him.

Any thoughts would be good, thanks a lot!

Hey,

I followed the video. I have been getting the same error after loading the Combination Firmware with NetOdin.

However, unlike your case, I have not been able to boot after flashing Combination Firmware, hence unable to execute any SDB commands. It's stuck on boot.

I did apply the stock firmware later. It boots fine, but the LTE functionality of my watch isn't working anymore.

I made sure to use the correct firmware after purchasing them from easy-firmware's website.

I would really appreciate any assistance.

Or my Galaxy phone (Fold) is not able to do this?
