Question How does one apply for One UI Watch 5 Beta outside the US?

[CertifiedWeeb]

Basically the title. I live outside the US, is there anyway to sign up for the new One UI 5 Watch Beta within the Samsung Members app for people outside the US?
Is there anyway to trick the system to mock a US location?

Here's when Samsung will open a software beta program for the Galaxy Watch 4

FYI... Updated, May 25, 2022 (04:00 PM ET): Samsung has already opened the beta program for the Galaxy Watch 4, just a day after announcing it was coming. (per androidauthirity) https://www.androidauthority.com/one-ui-watch-beta-3168590/

forum.xda-developers.com

Forget it...

Last time it was also joke and nobody shared the update.zip...

But, how does that apply to my question? Did you even read what I posted? It relates to the Samsung Members Application.

You can think what ever you want...

Last time for 5 seconds only US and Korean user(s) benifit from Beta.

NOBODY else.

If you are able to to have US and/or Korean Account with US and/or Korean Member crap app... feel free to test the Beta.

Samsung do the same SH ehm thing again.

Why no International Beta?


Blame not me.

Talk to your """friends""" Samsung...

Good Luck.

Btw.

They allready finished the GW6 Firmware...

So maybe think what ever you want...

I am not here to make jokes....

It is nearly impossible...

Maybe ever you need VPN US...

As soon you are identified outside...

Your US or Korean Account is booom...

Since this f. 2way ...

No idea if you know your Phone send MCC and MNC infos?

From your REAL location... not your wet dream location...


Only way IMHO is we have update.zip

Then we can simple update manually with system exploit...

Again.

Feel free to find your own solution.

Feel free to ignore my long time knowledge with GW4 GW5 Firmware...

Your choice.

You can read or not... Not my problem...

Here example how you can apply update.zip with system shell exploit...

Firmware and Combination Firmware and FOTA Delta and CSC change and...

Looks like it could be harder since Tizen... A Stock Firmware for netOdin/Odin not available yet... B Combination Firmware not available yet C FOTA Delta File for study I have...

forum.xda-developers.com

IMHO chance is much higher if friendly US and/or korean users share update.zip

Because to catch this file is NO Rocket Science...

We have seen this often with Phones... users shared the update.zip


But again. Feel free to fake 2 way factor check for Samsung Account AND ugly Member App...

And fake real MCC and MNC as long as you can...

Here example.

Users from Phone world are able to share update.zip

[OneUI 4.0 Beta 1 & 2](EXYNOS) Update.zip for S21 / Plus / Ultra - Download OTA Link

So, now that we have OneUI 4.0 Beta 1 rolling out to countries (ofc only 7), it has come so far in Germany & Korea (as far as I know). So the rest of the world wants an update.zip link, so don't be selfish and please, if you have one, capture the...

forum.xda-developers.com

NO idea why it is impossible for GW4 and/or GW5 user(s)...

Maybe this time more luck...

Who knows...

Hope dies ever last...

You do have a point. But the route I chose was not answered upon. The update.zip will not satisfy my question, I want to be registered for the BETA under the Members app. Anyway, I recently found out a way to do it and that is to change your Samsung Account country. The change should be applied in 16 hours from stating this message and then I will reinstall Samsung Members under an US VPN, then apply for the beta legitimately. If anything goes wrong with my device I would be able to get a refund or a replacement device. That is the route I prefer. Not to be blacklisted.

...will not satisfy my question,..

But maybe better you satisfy me.



A

Last Beta was very short period of time... for Registration...

So time tick tack runs...

No idea if this time longer...


B

Your plan...

Fake 2 high secured in chain "Apps" in Samsung Knox world...

Maybe on unrooted Android 14 Phone or similar...

B.1
Samsung Account

To fake you are Us and/or Korean user

B.2

Samsung Members App

Which IMHO work together with Security Checks of Samsung Account...

C

Fake your network to be sure your Phone not send real location data like:
MCC
MNC

D

Please let me know if somebody can help you.

The worst thing about Samsung’s One UI Watch 5 beta

Samsung fans are aware that the company has been testing the next major software update, Wear OS 4 and One ...

@CertifiedWeeb

keep me updated if this works. Apparently the members app checks your country by using your sim card, so I removed my simcard, cleared the members app cache and storage, connected to a US server via a VPN, and then opened the members app. I managed to get the US version of the members app, but the beta program would not show up.

Please check also this Thread:

Beta is now live

Beta just went live this morning here in the USA. Joined via the Members App and am installing the beta now. As a side note, after joining, then trying to download the updated watch plug-in via the members app, it tells me I am not authorized...

forum.xda-developers.com

but the beta program would not show up.

Maybe this is """normal""" and you have still managed...

Need to check some other posts about this...

Because I can remember some screenshot with not available or something but next screenshot he showed success with download...

Best Regards

I tried this and it also didn't show up for me. The Samsung Support team still hasn't changed the account country as yet. They did say 2-3 business days though.

keep me posted if anything changes in 2-3 days

 

[CertifiedWeeb]

My account country has changed, and I tried the above, even using a mock location app, and it still didn't show up. Welp. Atleast I got my Samsung Account country changed. I wanted it to be changed. I think the beta program is closed.

 

[Jayman007]

This beta is total garbage and has rendered my watch useless. Please help me get this beta garbage off my watch. Samsung tells me to send it to them for this and I have to pay because no longer in ****ty 1 year warranty.

@Jayman007​

Please give Details about Model Name...

So """we""" can check if Firmware available for downgrade ATTEMPT.

Own risk.

As """we""" not know if Samsung do funny changes to netOdin support...

Example for you, what I """need""" to know.

SM-R870 ?

Or LTE Version like SM-R875U?
