[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] timg11:
I’m trying to connect the S21 Ultra to the Asus GT-AXE11000 using Wi-Fi 6E.

The phone is SM-G998U1, software is OneUI 3.1, Android 11, Baseband G998U1UEU2AUB6.

The Asus AP 6 GHz SSID can be seen by a notebook computer, but it is not seen at all by the S21. The phone has been on for 24 hours within a few feet of the AP, so it is likely not a slow scanning issue.

Has anyone else got 6 GHz working?

Is there an additional setting or enabling that is required for Wi-Fi 6E?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] pjlphil:
It definitely works for me. Even shows a little Wifi 6 icon by the wifi icon on the status bar.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dscline:
I don't have a 6e router, but you might try this guy, it's working for him.

I get the WiFi 6 icon on mine too. But I only have a WiFi 6 router, not 6e. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dscline:
Yes it released. You should read more about the S21U, and those who are already using it.

my Diamond Battery Lasts ,with A Normal Use,for Less Than A Day,no Abuse Just The Regular Stuff,calls, Some Teeter & That's All,my QuestioN Is,is That Normal Or My Phone Is Messed Up?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tomchap:
This doesnt have anything to do with Themes, Applications and Software does it? You will get more luck if you post this in the main Diamond General Forum. * MOD can you move?

There have been quite a few posts about this in there.

There are also alot of tweaks that you can enable to increase your battery life and also alot of people were saying that when they first got their Diamonds they had pretty pants battery life, but after charging it fully a few days later they had a pretty good life out of the battery, At least a day.

Im used to charging my battery every day, ive always done this, and thats just how long my battery lasts for. I play a few games, read emails, constantly get texts and prob take a few pics, and put wifi on for a while to.

Try looking here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=398265 - List of diamond tweaks

or here this guys info is pretty useful to: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=411479

Also try this software called Advanced Config, its pretty useful, but always read the post relating to the software your installing. You have to be careful when tweaking your phone as certain tweaks have certain problems.

Hi good people!

Did anyone had experience with the Chinese Snapdragon variant in Europe?

Are there any features lacking in comparison to the Exynos variant?

What will not work?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Macagna:
hello,

just got my china one, g9980zhu2aubb.

samsung phone don't have antispam (hiya) option, and samsung pay don't work

still in test.

maybe someone knows if we could flash it with eu firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
Isn't Hiya 3rd party app? It cannot be installed?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Macagna:
yep it can, but samsung smart call (missing in mine) had it free.

instead you'll have to buy hiya or try google dialer. (i dont like his giant favorite bubbles)

maybe someone could share a tips to get samsung phone with hiya for chinese phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
Why is Samsung Pay not working - I asked UK Samsung Customer service and they said it should work since it is a service enabled in China

"I won't be able to confirm these issues as you are the first one to have mentioned this to me. As far as I know, Samsung Pay is supported on this following countries: US, UK, Australia, Belarus, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Russia, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates and Vietnam. You can consider where the device was manufactured for you to be able to use Samsung pay."
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] nobrain3000:
I think it's dependent on your regions csc.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] arrowblade:
I live in Shanghai and bought a china version of the ultra, it doesn't have hiya, rather it uses a local tencent or baidu equivalent to control the spam calls. The samsung browser also doesn't let you select a default english search engine like bing or google, you can only set chinese ones. I got fed up with it and flashed the Hong Kong firmware, and the hong kong version fixes these issues, including having hiya.

Edit: And another thought, the chinese firmware uses bixby home on the left screen, so no samsung free or google discover. The hong kong firmware has these so another reason why I decided to flash (but now the discover feed has stopped showing anything and i can't figure it out....)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
Seems like it's not worth experimenting with China's Snap
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Berserker900:
So which version did buy?

I'm also thinking of getting the HK but afraid I will lose volte or 5g among other stuff.

Wdyt?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
I didn't buy it yet - I can still get Snap version from a reseller for less money than Exynos - which was unthinkable with S20 and Note 20 series last year
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Berserker900:
seems getting the HK version is bit risky no>?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] NippleSauce:
Oh wow. I didn't even realize that those countries listed above all have NFC Local/Mobile Pay terminals. That's specifically what's needed with the S21 series as Samsung has removed their MST Pay functionality... =(. So now it's basically Google Pay with less features...
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
It is not just risky, it is straightforwardly missing important features

If I meter Snap positives like better gaming and photo experience against all that is lacking.... meh, not worth it

I don't kmow but i have a 9980 version and apparently works ok. But if you will get tell us how it works. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] bissa:
No you can't. 2 difference models and can't be flashed.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
Have you managed to test it more thoroughly?

Reported issues so far on this and other threads:

1. VoLTE doesn't work

2. Samsung pay - Chinese version - works on HK one (yours)

3. antispam blocker not working

4. default search engine can't be set to Google

5. left home screen can't be set to Google Discover

What are your experiences with these features?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Riyal:
Hi I have g9980 also HK Variant.

1. VoLTTE works

2. Not sure, Samsung pay is not supported in our country.

3.. Anti Spam works.

4. Google is the default search engine. No need to change.

5. Google discover & samsung free is there and it works.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] arrowblade:
Just to clarify what i wrote previously, the mainland china version cannot set the search engine to google, nor is samsung free or google discover available on the left screen(it's bixby home), and the anti-spam is china only.

However, once you flash the mainland china version with the hong kong TGY firmware, you can choose any of the english search engines you prefer, google discover and samsung free will be available on the left screen and the anti-spam will use hiya, not the china only spam crap.

So if you don't like messing around and flashing firmwares, I suggest buying the Hong Kong version of the phone. If you can get a good deal on a china version, you can get that and flash the Hong Kong firmware and no problem.

If you buy the China mainland version and do not flash the TGY firmware, i would very much not recommend buying it.

In my case so far, i think the phone is fantastic and worth every penny.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] inpression:
Considering flashing an update is as easy as can be these days, that shouldn't be the reason for not getting it, especially if you can get it cheap, I got an HK version and still flashed the latest official ROM before setting it up.

Everything works just fine, only thing I haven't tried is Samsung Pay, but it seems to be functional too.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Twodordan:
Could anyone in Europe recommend a place where you can buy the HK version of the phone?

Does the HK version have a more specific name code besides also "SM-G9980"? Like SM-G9980-HK or smth?

[Edit] Ok, so confirmed by users, there are a couple online shops that ship from hk to eu, even without extra VAT, and confirmed to ship with HK firmware. I don't know about all the codes, but seems at very least the G9980ZHU***** ones are HK firmware. I won't paste shops here since it seems people aren't so it might be against the rules.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
After your post I opted for Snap, I found HK variant - two days in and I can confirm everything you said

Thanks!

Everyone - I cannot compare it with Exynos to see if it's any better, but if you think there is even a slight performance diff, go for it it is a no-brainer
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rattle$nake:
Thanks bro for the info. Can you also confirm whether volte and 5g works on both Sim slots?

Also, please describe how is your experience regarding heating issues when using camera for 10 mins.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
It heats up - but nothing unbearable.

As for the second card slot, I don't know, I use just one sim. It has two slots though and two IMEIs
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Ivanbani:
Great!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] bocsta:
what country you in ?

Does 5g work ?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dezzan:
Serbia - I haven't been yet to the areas where my provider implemented it, so I can't tell.

But I will for sure keep it off, so that was not a concern for me.

Can anyone test if you can get into the service menu ?

Hi, I buy G9980 HK Variant. I updated to latest firmware. I want to use esim card, but I don't have in menu to configure.

who know how to fix that?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] nobrain3000:
Hongkong variant doesn't support esim!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Riyal:
Only Exynos variant has E-Sim.

And as for dual 5G it does not. You can only open 5g on a single sim slot. You can either switch 5g to sim 1 or sim 2 but not both.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] aoglib:
thaks, try exenge to exynos.

Today in Ukraine there is no 5g, only 4g. so it is enough
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] ajb256:
I'd like to add to this thread with my findings of buying a G9980 in Europe (France), addressing the concerns I had (with thanks those members that helped me out), and my findings so far after about 2 weeks of playing with this beast (coming from an Exynos Note8).

The seller took some time before getting back to my CH/TW/HK firmware question after purchase, so I assumed that I would want to Flash the device upon receipt and prepared accordingly. My biggest concern was that after flashing, a product activation would be needed with a local sim on a local network in Asia before it could be used in Europe on other carriers dispite buying a "Europe unlocked" device (would this be messed up with a flash?). This wasn't an issue within Portugal from someone who flashed HK firmware, which was reassuring.

If flashing for the first time, stick with an older firmware version (keeping to bootloader v1) for greater flexibility in case something goes wrong, then you can also test OTA updates immediately for the latest update. If changing region, eg: Chain --> HK, you should use CSC to wipe everything rather than CSC_home. If you receive errors with official Odin on official firmware, use patched Odin - official firmware should not trip knox in either case.

The version that I received was in fact TW. The phone came in a completely sealed box (plastic and sealing stickers intact so it was not opened and activated in Asia prior to sending) and did not ask for any activation or registration when loading for the first time.

The TW firmware is identical to the HK version (as can be seen on Sammobile) and now Taiwan has 5G, it is an option that can be switched on (but untested because I neither live in 5G coverage area nor have a 5G contract).

To summarize my exerience so far, my TW version (CSC: BRI/BRI):

WOW this is fast...!

Google is the default search engine (Discover on left)

VOLTE can be activated

VOWIFI can be activated

5G is theoretically working (untested) and can be activated

Call recording NOT possible (but against GDPR in EU anyway)

I do not see any anti-spam calling software

Official firmware, so OTA updates work (latest update was about 1-2 days behind non-TW update launch)

I have not installed Samsung Pay, the Galaxy store is normally in English but the Samsung Pay page is displaying the TW version. Google Pay seems to work (untested but my accounts are recognised)

It came with a factory installed screen protector

The camera shutter sound cannot be turned off

(update) Samsung Health sync-ed well from my previous account.

Hopefully this will be useful to some, I will give another update if I find something big :)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] meroupow:
Same for me in France as well since 2 weeks.

Everything is working so far, but I didn't test Samsung pay yet as I use Google Pay.

I already installed 2 OTAs on HK ROM.

The only pb I found so far was the CSC that did not allow me to use ECG and BP with my Galaxy Active 2 watch (not yet allowed in this country I guess).

I fixed that by installing the modded version of Samsung Health Monitor and everything works perfectly. No need to flash/update CSC nor change the ROM.

I think that no matter what the snap version will always be better supported by devs as it is the de facto standard on android. I understand why Samsung wants to compete and avoid dependence toward qualcomm but I disagree on the fact they are only selling the Exynos version in Europe and with a price tag that is even 20% to 30% higher than for the other countries. I would have never bought the Exynos version at the price they sell it in the regular shops in France. And if I had to flash and tinker to death so be it, but in fact there is simply almost no drawback to use the HK Rom.

hi is the china version have ( native call recording )

I'm pretty sure the HK G9980 supports Esim, it even has a menu for its settings on the IMS settings page, but it seems to be locked out on the SIM card manager page, seems to be locked for usage in Chinese regions only.

All Samsung apk here, but samsung pay is Hong Kong one. Tested and working, but display ads from Asia... No problem with OTA updates.

The only problem i've found is with my carriers. I've got 2 sims with different operator. No problem with 4g. But difficulties to have 4g+ at home. Was having it my note 10+. Now, need to climb upstairs to enable it...

Have tried China and Taïwan firmwares but back to Hong Kong, as it is the most friendly for my european use..

Hi, i wish to buy a refurbished S21 Ultra Snapdragon and i saw China version has that, and has 5G networks.

According to Kimovil the SM-G9880 has the networks i need, in Portugal, Vodafone has n78(3500) and n28a(700), but when i see the post Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G (SM-G9980) | TGY/BRI/CHC it shows it is missing 5G n28a(700).

Does anyone know which information is correct?

Also, does it support Portuguese language? or only english and chinese

And how general use is it nowadays in 2022, with oneui4.1 and android 12L?

What about the image processing specially at night shots and zoom. is it like most of the youtube videos out there that shows Snapdragon as a leading in image processing? if you don't have access to the Exynos can you tell by experience what your camera opinion/feelings are?

What about Bloatware apps, can they be disabled or uninstalled?

And battery times?

Thanks in advance.

the G9980 does not have n28a

There is an option for Portuguese language on my G9980.

So I'm in the market for a new phone and these two are the contenders I'm looking at, I do not have 900 to spend on the latest and greatest nor do I need it. And I would like to stick with samsung as they have always treated me well . anyways, I'm looking at the note 8 and 9, which should I buy? A family member has a note 8, and bought it when they were first released ,and has had no issues. So I'm slightly leaning towards that. I'm looking for reliability mainly . And I like the size of the notes and the S pen is a big thing for me. Just held up on which one is more reliable.

Well I just got this phone as an upgrade over p30 lite, and I'm loving it! The lack of Google bloat was an issue at first, but quickly solved, mainly using gboard. I much prefer it like this right now!

It's much faster than my old phone, still rock solid.

The cover I got for it is very basic, just a silicone wrap around, and a screen protector glass on top of it. But amazingly these silicone basic covers really help -- they are soft so it slows down the phone's impact when/if you drop it. I have dropped my old phone countless times with a similar cover, and nothing happened to it.
