Hey guys, i know this has been asked few times already, but i can't find it in the forum anymore.

I just send my Note 8 to Philippines, i wanna know if i can set my region on my Samsung members app Philippines? 

It's not my account, its my brother's...

Thanks for the replies..

You'd have to flash the Phillipines CSC. This belongs to the N950F Exynos Note8. It was not tested yet to flash cross-hardware CSC. You can try if you are ready. Normally the CSC should be hardware-agnostic as it contains mostly carrier configuration and other localization options. But I repeat it was not tested

Hey @gokongming,

 

I believe country is tied to your Samsung Account—I can ask the Samsung Account team to change the region so that the Members app will show Philippines as the country 😊

 

However, the account will lose all its purchase history. If you're okay with this, please privately message me the Samsung Account email you'd like to change the country of and I can start the process!

 

Cheers,

Sabrina

@sabrina, thanks, but ill just leave it as is, i don't want my account be affected. i gave my note 8 which was bought here, to my brother in the Philippines.. He made an account using the app but he became a member here just today. i guess he'll not enjoy the Samsung Members Philippines community there.. if there is a good way, that my Samsung Members account won't be affected let me know.

Hey @gokongming, 

 

That's unfortunate... does he have a separate Samsung Account from yours? If so, we can look into his account and see if anything can be done about the region. It shouldn't affect your account that way 😊

 

Cheers,

Sabrina
