I recently purchased a phone in the United Kingdom, but it is currently displaying the India region. Despite my efforts, I have been unable to locate an option to modify this setting. Furthermore, I am unable to find the same application in the Play Store.
For instance, when I install Amazon, it operates in accordance with the India platform, displaying Indian prices and products rather than those from the United Kingdom.

You cannot change region without doing sketchy stuff that voids your warranty and could break your device. Sounds like you got it from someone who bought them cheap from India, imported them to the UK and sold them for a profit

@dhillondon_ Hi. 

I would suggest to ask the merchant to swap the phobe out so that you jave a phone that's meant to be used in the UK and not a grey import. 

If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask  😎

If you just want to change the language and settings to UK you can do it in settings, General management. It's obviously a phone intended for the Indian market but that shouldn't stop you using it in the UK with English UK settings. You'll need to change the CSC code to get software updates. That does involve potential risks but if you want to do it then search YouTube. Regarding the warranty your out of luck if it's being used out of region. Mine is a US model and I'm in the UK and its got no warranty in the UK. See attached screenshot.1732956330140.jpg20241130_090059_1000029120_1732957259.jpg

Your region, EUX, is the stock Samsung region for the U.K. and is on all phones purchased here from them. There is no need to change your Samsung CSC code for this device.

Currently, 30th November 2024, there is no November update for the Fold6, F956B, model on EUX. Europe.
