flash TPA to UK and knox

[asjeep]

Evening,

Getting back in the Android game (havent had a droid since a sg3) and i ordered a SM-G955F turns out the device is from panama (TPA csc)?

I want to use samsung pay on it, from what i am reading i need to flash it with a UK version of the firmware.

Just a couple questions to put my mind at ease

A. Will I need a UK sim card available after the flashing (im in the US and only have my ATT one available)
B . Will this cause my knox to be tripped (aka rooted) as i cannot be rooted and use this for work. I think the answer is no from what ive read here....

Thanks for any and all help

I tried that file and got further, when i tried to flash it and the ap only it runs very fast then stops at nad_refer and goes no further.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for your help
