[Kaidy]

My phone cames from South Korea.

I replaced the SIM card which made from UK, But the samsung pay doesn't working in UK as well

I changed nationaliy when I used 'setting' but it couldn't working when I installed the UK's SIM

Is somebody know this solution and please explain me as well?

Thanks and have a good day from start a week.

I've imported phones from Korea as well.
The Samsung Pay won't work unless you have a simcard in there from the country the phone is registered in.
Was the downside of importing a phone.
Tried many things but never got it to work

Thanks for your kindly reply.
But if I want to use this one, How could I ask somebody?

I am not a technical expert, what happen if you create a UK account and get a UK card, try something like Starling bank, however you have to have solid UK financial background to create instant online UK bank accounts

Just an idea.. Only

Hi @Kaidy ,

You'll be unable to set up UK banks with a phone originating from South Korea. To use Samsung Pay UK, the phone would need to be intended for use within the UK.

You can find more information about this app here: https://www.samsung.com/uk/samsung-pay/

Unfortunately that phone will have different certification to the UK. So you won't be able to use Samsung Pay on it with a UK simcard.

You need to pay to get csc changed or go to samsung service centre to get csc changed

[Andy3]

All it takes is a csc change. Which you can't do. Unless you pay to change it or samsung service centre changes it.

Or you flash a new csc with odin, voiding your warranty 😝

[Andy3]

It does not void your warranty. Most firmwares use multi csc and can no longer be changed. If you read odin logs it always states leave csc.
