Sorry, I suppose my question should have been whether I can flash any firmware on my phone (ASCA for example) when it currently has ASBA on it? Ideally I don't want to lose any data on the phone. When I flashed a few days ago, the "Starting Android..." was on the screen for a few hours, I...

So I have the dual sim variant: SM-G975F, ASBA, OXM, AFR (Kenya?) G975FFXXU1ASBA Am I able to flash UK firmware on to this phone? I've tried searching but unsure whether ASC8 is valid for ASBA devices etc? I've flashed devices in the past with no problem but my only try with this S10+ resulted...

I may have to try the full wipe, which is something I wanted to avoid but seems I have no choice. Hopefully that at least solves the problem.

Hi Guys I used Odin to reflash my Galaxy S10+ dual sim (duos) as it was experiencing some slowness. I used the Singapore firmware as it uses the same "G975FXXU1ASBA" model name. The process completed successfully but when the phone boots, it gets past the Samsung logo screen and then gets...

Are you sure that the original link I posted isn't for the Exynos version? I cannot find where it specifically states it but it looks like it may be the Korean version (256GB & Blue), which are Exynos? I did send a message to ask but got a vague reply with a copy-paste from the product page...

Thanks for the reply. The fact that the phone has 256GB internal storage means that the sim slots aren't an issue. I just wanted to check whether this version was dual sim as I'm looking for one phone to use a business and personal line on. I prefer the look of the blue too, so I think I'll...

Hi Guys I'm looking for a dual sim phone but keep finding phones where the 2nd sim tray is also where the SD card is used, so I have to pick one or the other. I've found this model of the Note 8 and am considering buying for use in Canada...

Turns out the home button was "worn out" when I took it in for repair for a phone around a year old! Unfortunately, a broken home button also means the screen and sensors need to be replaced too but luckily I managed to get the repair done for free by Samsung.

You're right, when I change the brightness on the slider, the screen doesn't change at all. This is the same even if I'm indoors. Any ideas how to disable outdoor mode? I cannot find a setting for it anywhere.

Hi everyone I've been having some odd issues start occurring around a month ago on my Galaxy S6 Edge 64GB (G925W8): 1. Auto brightness turned on - Screen flickers between low and high backlight very quickly, mainly when outdoors. 2. Home button stopped working completely for 8 days (fingerprint...

Thanks for the reply. I have tried reformatting the card several times, using the 2 pieces of software I mentioned, Copying manually through a card reader into Macbook slot and none of those worked. I never had an issue with the Z2. Half of the songs skip as if they are corrupted, while the...

Hi guys I'm going out of my mind trying to transfer my music collection on to the Xperia Z3. I have a collection of roughly 15GB and have been attempting to transfer to a Sandisk 64GB micro SD card via both Sony Bridge for Mac and Android File Manager. The file transfers look to complete...

I could kiss you! I've been trying many methods over the past few days and finally this one worked! Thank you SO SO much!!!

Confirmed Unlock on Orange UK! I bought the Galaxy S3 LTE version from the Orange shop yesterday and can confirm there is a working unlock out there as I am now using my 3 sim card...for £10.95! The unlock was purchased on eBay (add on to the eBay URL)...
