i found a seller in chennai (india) who sells Snapdragon 845 editon of the galaxy s9 plus my main concerns are as follows
1. will it work without the 5 minute phone call required initially?
2. will it support volte (jio) in india without changing the firmware?
3. are indian bands supported especially for airtel and jio?
4. will warranty be covered in india?
5. will there be any issues that i should be concerned about?
thanks in advance

1. Yes
2. No. Jio VoLTE will NOT work.
3. Bands may be supported, but if there is 4G+ (LTE-A) in India, that may not work. And if you use a Jio SIM, only data will work, no voice calls due to lack of VoLTE.
4. No it won't.
5. Aside from the fact that VoLTE / LTE-A will not work on any network. Not really.
Regarding the band compatibility;
The S9+ USA model supports the following LTE bands (source: https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s9+-8967.php)
LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 13(700), 14(700), 17(700), 18(800), 19(800), 20(800), 25(1900), 26(850), 28(700), 29(700), 30(2300), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500), 46, 66(1700/2100), 71(600) - USA
India LTE bands (source: https://m.gsmarena.com/network-bands.php3?sCountry=India)
LTE 850 (5), LTE 1800 (3), LTE 2100 (1), LTE 2300 (40), LTE 2500 (41)
So you should be fine regarding LTE compatibility (not sure about VoLTE and LTE-A).
Regarding warranty only the local Samsung customer service will be able to answer this 100% accurate (most likely no warranty).

As far as i know
1. No. You need to insert a country specific sim to activate/unlock the device.
2. No.
3. Yes. But in the first place you need to unlock the device which is not possible.
4. No.
5. You cannot root the device because bootloader is locked in snapdragon version and No carrier aggregation(LTE-A) support because the ca combinations are country/CSC specific.
Hi,
I have US bought tmobile unlocked s9+ device..JIO VOLTE doesnt work .. is it not fixable at all ?
Or is there a way out ?
Thanks
Bharat
M too facing same issue.
I researched a lot in last 2weeks on same but of no luck, found our that regarding volte the issue arising in many countries,
Small positive info got day before yesterday in s8forums Tgey said it was due to CSC in the firmware . And now a days all firmwares are multi CSC loaded, but since we used the phone in usa CSC from there was loaded, so I order load indian CNC we have to do the below.
if they just activated the phone after hard reset using indian sim they were able to use usa version with jio.. But I tried that too in vain no luck for us.
You may try above but.. you may lose data.. advise smart switch feature to sd card... if willing to do hard reset.
Please update if any luck
You may find ref link https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/help/how-to-install-indian-firmware-csc-inu-t3624953
I have not played with these before ..like installing firmware and all..mine is SM G965U model .. not sure the method mentioned would work ! 965F us international model ? And tweaks to this model only work not US models ?
I checked with Samsung too.. they said its country specific .. i dont know whether to try this method or leave as it is !!
Thanks
Even I got stuck over us CSC, and all samsung pay rewards which were only for us citizens..
Mine is G965U1, VOLTE doesnt work in india.
Since snapdragon not yet unlocked I had no options for VOLTE.. even If I do I may have to let go the Spay...
My advise don't Buy.. during deals we almost get similar rate e commerce sites in india...

Hey,
I am facing a similar issue. I got a unlocked USA S9 SM-G960U1.
I am using it in India but VOLTE does not work.
I am looking for a workaround. Any help will be appreciated
Thanks in advance
I have a S9+ snapdragon from T-mobile. Recently visited India. Jio volte does not work which was expected. But Airtel had bad reception and the internet would not work even intermittently when the 4g symbol was in display. However, in the same location, side by side, another airtel number on moto g worked flawlessly.
Even though the S9+ specifications shows all the network bands supported by Airtel, i did not expect to face the above problem. I am planning to sell the phone in the USA and buy a oneplus from India.
[SOLVED] use JIO SIM card on S9+ US Version in India
I purchased an S9+ ATT in December 2018, tried to use JIO SIM in India but no luck , then I wanted to get rid of ATT logo, which comes up every time I reboot my device. Did some research then and came across this forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/how-to/how-to-flash-u1-firmware-to-device-t3765200.
Was able successfully flash my device to US Unlocked version from ATT version 4 months ago , now I can see VoLTE toggle. Again tried to use JIO SIM , didn't work . Since then my device gets regular OTA updates :angel:.
AIRTEL network in my area sucks, Now 09/2019 again I tired to use JIO SIM and it works flawlessly.
HELLO I HAVE GALAXY S9+ U.S. VERSION. my jio sim is not allowing voice calls, and messages in this . Can anyone transform the trouble shoot method please
Like wise it is not working apple ( us version) 6 too
please

download the firmware for your carrier from www.sammobile.com/firmwares and flash it via Odin. If its the same android version, br sure to use the HOME_CSC file when flashing vs the normal CSC file to avoid an unnecessary factory reset. Flashing the HOME_CSC vs the CSC will allow you to keep all your stuff on your phone, CSC will factory reset it.

voLTE wont work unless you flash the CSC for your carrier on the device. voLTE is a carrier specific thing and requires the carrier specifc software to be installed which happens when the correct CSC file is on the device and the corresponding sim is entered

Does LG v30 - Indian H930DS model support LTE+ on Jio by any chance?

If so, I would buy this right away, if H930DS supports LTE+ and VoLTE in custom ROMs. Need to confirm if VoLTE works in LOS..
This "VoLTE" in custom ROMs at XDA has been recently evolving as taboo..!
Anyways, do you use custom ROMs in your V30..?
EDITED TO CORRECT MISINFORMATION. YOU DO NOT LOSE DUAL SIM card functionality.

The Indian LG V30+ supports Jio VoLTE on stock India Nougat. Oreo for that region has not been released yet, and while you can flash to another region to get Oreo then you would lose the Jio VoLTE.
You can only get root by flashing to H930 or the CIS H930DS OREO KDZ.
Perhaps with root you can flash parts back to get VoLTE like the Verizon guys have done -- or even 2nd SIM back -- but I can't promise that.

Thanks for your help, but I'd want to clarify the context little clear.
As you might know, Jio is LTE-only carrier and VoLTE is the only way of calling in that network. However, my question is about something else, viz. LTE+ - The capability of the phone to support certain LTE features like multiple carrier aggregations (CA), 256QAM, 64x64MIMO
Here in India, two carriers namely, Airtel and Jio have enabled LTE-CA in major cities. Hence I would want to know since some V30 Indian guys were confirming me LTE+ in Stock ROM - if LTE+ is supported even in custom ROM after BL unlock?
(Reason, why I'm looking for this, is, networks here are so much congested that during peak time, I hardly get 200kBps from single Band40-TDD LTE cell. If LTE+ is available on custom ROMs like in OP5/6 it will help get over this congestion)

I don't know. I also just corrected my post for quoted. You don't lose dual SIM functionality with bootloader unlock and root on the H930.

Hi, just like volte support on our indian stock, the lte+ also works only Indian stock too.
I am currently on Boobox rom rooted with twrp and bootloader unlocked I dont get lte+. Rest assured everything is working great and on lte+ I saw nothing of much improvement over airtel since they have started to compete with jio prices.
So take my words root it and feel the freedom.

Thanks for stepping-in! I thought I wont get any further replies..
In my case, Jio has CA in 3 bands (Bands 3+5+40). And the place where I reside has pathetic network reception. I was about to switch to airtel, until I saw my friend OP5 getting marvellous speeds at the same place.
Also in your case, airtel has 2 bands CA (Bands 3+40). And since Band 3 will be so much congested, you wouldn't have got any considerable difference. Hence It should theoretically improve connectivity with my Jio..., However, before I jump, Can you install root app called NSG and share its screenshot?

Can you specify which screenshot you exactly looking as this app has more then 10 screens.
FYI it still has lte bands 1, 3, 5, 40 and 41 which are required in India.

My current Redmi Note 4 though supports 2CA, some support on modem is missing it seems... Hence it's showing LTE+ in mine despite not aggregating with 2nd cell. I was suspecting LTE+ to be still there, but may be your ROM isn't showing you.. Hence those Screenshots would help understand that..

Hi guys, I have been trying to get VOLTE enabled on my VOG-L29. I have seen it in the settings with a German Vodafone SIM but when I insert the ATT SIM it disappeared, never to be seen again. (hard reset with either SIM, no SIM etc.)
I don't need WiFi calling but the VOLTE services are important.
Any way to get the phone enabled for them with ATT please?
Anybody please?
Hi,
Don't know about USA and others countries and providers, but as far as I know its need more than one thing :
- a compatible phone
- a compatible carrier
- to be enable BOTH on phone AND on carrier side
Keep in mind that, unfortunately, this is not as standard as it must be.
Some carrier enable by default as soon as the connected phone support the function.
Some need to be enabled by the customer, with or without fees.
Some force to have a specific firmware or apps or any custom thing, or even specific hardware like device only sold by this carrier... Etc etc
Welcome to capitalistic world!
If your phone is already compatible, Did you set/enable that function on your account or contact your support service?
After that and if it's ok, you'll see the option again on your phone for that sim card.
Did you ''RTFM'' about your specific situation?
At least done some searches...contact your carrier...
If you like some help, better try to look before on your own and only after write a message with lot more details than 'it worked before.. Not now... Everything is different except the phone... I don't understand...'
Come on, it's XDA, not an happy few neighbour tech blog...

The phone is missing almost half of the available AT&T bands. I doubt it.
I believe your issue is with AT&T and not the phone. I have the same phone and both Wi-Fi calling and VOLTE work great on Canadian TELUS network. I didn't have to do anything other than enable it. I remember when I lived in the US for a while my CDN phone would not allow VOLTE to work on AT&T and would re-enable when ever I returned to TELUS's network.

AT&T does not let any phone not sold/branded by them to use VOLTE or Wifi Calling.
If you really need VOLTE go with T-Mobile.

Im on koodo, with a 6t, has all the bands and functionality but as the carrier never had oneplus (telus) no dice, which is similar to the att situation. I am looking to change up, as wifi and volte, along with dual sim are needed, but didnt realize vog-l29 gets the vog-l04 functionality here. Did you just boot the phone with the sim installed, and wifi/volte calling were already enabled (i have it enabled on my account already). This would save me going the samsung ds s10 plus route, and messing with csc codes on the hk version. I m a big leica fan, and just like the colour reproduction on huawei better, also the battery life.

Hi,
There are 3 carriers offering 5G in my city at the moment, which are using bands that N10 supports, but it's not connecting with 5G and when I search manually, it shows only networks up to 4G. The phone is updated.
Which version? EU or NA ? And does your provider have 5G?
Have same issue with NA version in Germany. with *#*#4636#*#* you can enable "NR network" which is 5G. but not in normal settings - typing 5G in setting search does show some additional settings that are invisible - i suspect it might be disabled and i don't have 5G provider anyways.
EU version (BE2029). It turns out that NR is enabled by default.
Now I realized that for some reason I have NA ROM 10.5.9 BE86AA instead of 10.5.9.BE89BA one.
Flashing the EU ROM did not help.

I did a 'full OTA' update through system app using update file from this article https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-nord-n10-5g-oxygenos-10-5-9/
I have tested again with a new 5G enabled SIM and everything works as expected - Obviously the system disables the 5G settings without a fitting SIM. This was with T-Mobile Germany.
ROM is 10.5.9 BE86

No issues with NA version on US TMO with the correct SIM.
I have 5g working in USA on Visible (Verizon). I had to enable NR in the *#*#4636#*#* settings. It's resets after reboot unfortunately. Hopefully an update will allow us to select 5g from the normal settings menu. A but disappointed this phone didn't come with that option already enabled.

Spoke to soon - 5g works, but about 30% slower then my 8pro. Also doesn't connect is weak places the other one does ??
Mine works great on TMobile USA 5G. I did try an Unreal SIm (AT&T) and it does not get 5G, the setting for Preferred Network Type drops the 5G all together as an option.
I was wondering if the Canadian version is the US or International version? They have different 5G bands.

Probably - so does international. You should get the detailed lists of bands for both phones and compare them to your carrier's bands.
I almost made a huge mistake of buying another of their "global" phones from China, but when I checked their bands, it was missing some US 5g and LTE bands.
Hello i have imported an LG V60 TM to greece. It is my second time that i import a lg v60 to greece. The first time was 2020, and back at the time that lg v60 TM was having 5G in my county (i dont know how..) now the second time i bought a TM model, i have not all 4g bands and i am missing 5G. The TM is as far as i know app unlocked. What i can do to enable 4g+ or lte or 5g to my lg?
It is now updated to A13.
Thank you all.
Do you by any chance have the model, rom, or any other data from youur previous phone that had 5G?
I'm also in Greece on Cosmote and haven't found a way yet to get 5G on my v60 (TM originaly, but converted to EA). I have tried 6+ roms (v10,11,12) without success. The TM rom might show 5G on the top right but NetMonster says its actually 4G. If you have some luck plese update the thread. Thank you.
No I don't remember the model the rom was definitely TM original. But the main difference from the one I have now. It's that mins now has something that tries to activates network but it failes. And then I did not had that.
Also can you share info about your lg60? Mine says it has LTE but I only can reach 30mbps in Athens . I can see band 3,7,20 but I don't think volTE is working.
I get similar speeds as you in 4G, maybe double in good cell towers. VoLTE, VoWifi never worked after trying many posts on this forum, with rooted device. I decided to stay in stock and check for solutions later. I think I should start looking for JigsawMobile moded modem files and if this doesn't work reinstall my original TM rom backup to get the Android 13 OTA. If anything comes up I'll post updates.
What information would you like from my V60?
Hello,
I'm trying to acquire a lg v60 but it seems that the european version is impossible to get.
Are the others versions working in Europe ?
Here are the frequencies in France that I need : 800 MHz (B20), 1 800 MHz (B3), 2 100 MHz (B1), 2 600 MHz (B7)
Will a V600TM be fine or not ? I don't mind the 5g, only 4g.
Thanks.

you can take one TM or ATT, TM is a bit more sensitive to bugs and has the possibility of OTA upgrade, but it won't be for long because the support ends. ATT is somewhat more resistant to bugs, but there is no OTA, but again it does not matter because we have all backups up to the latest version of frrmware.

If I buy one, I'll plan to keep it for a long time but I don't know if we the updates are available in Europe.
Frequencies bands are also important, there is no point that I buy the phone if I can't use it with my network operator.
Thanks for the infos, if the frequencies can work, I'll take the TM.

Does it mean that if I crossflash to the ea rom I will be able to use all frequencies (I live in France) ?
As long as I have 4g it's fine.

It seems weird, some sellers are selling lg v60 but the back side of the phone has 5g logo instead of 60thinq logo...
The T-Mobile version will work on all frequencies in Europe. I'm in the UK and all 4g bands work. Except 5G

Is it really like that, that TM will work in Europe? I checked the kimovil.com page and according to this website I will not have support for any frequency in Czech Republic (just 2G). They say that B1 (2100), B3 (1800), B7 (2600) and B20 (800) are not supported. According to the website the ATT version will support all 4 bands of 4G, 3G, but no 2G (I don´t know if I need 2G, do you have any problems?). According to the website the Verizon version will support 3 bands out of 4 of 4G, 3G and 2G, so I guess the Verizon version would be the best.
I am using the Sprint version of LG V50 Thing 5G. It shows I have 5G, but kimovil.com says it does not support. I installed netmonster app to my phone and realized that the phone shows 5G but it does not have any 5G, just 4G. That is a funny thing too.

No problem it support 2G in all countries.
I think only 5g wont work without modifications different.
Kimovil.co. is not right site to see bands, in most of sites shown bands without roaming. Eg. you can see for att officiall site there are roaming bands but on the site no roaming bands.
