I'm trying to switch from the panama community to the Canada community inside my Members app but it's not working. What do I do?

You have to flash Canada firmware, as Samsung Members (among other features) are based on your firmware's CSC. Seems you have a Galaxy A-series phone. Thankfully, they have the same hardware worldwide so flashing is riskless. What Galaxy A phone do you have? You may only do this on devices which are available in Canada, so if you have a Galaxy A80 for example, this is not possible

I have a Galaxy A51, which is available in Canada but the hardware in the Canadian version is different. I don't think I can flash the Canadian software because of that

That's untrue. The hardware is the same, except for the A51 5G

I'm pretty sure the the canadian model only has 64gb of storage and 4gb or ram, while the international models have multiple configurations, and mine is a different configuration too

The storage and memory configurations are irrelevant for software compatibility

oh ok, sorry I'm not familiar with this stuff. So, if I flash a canadian software on my phone it won't hard brick it? And will the CSC change to the canadian one?

1- No, it won't, and
2- Yes, it will.
Anyway, you don't need to do that anymore, as the S Members community is now determined by your SIM/WiFi IP for tablets. Just insert a Canadian SIM, make sure you have the latest version of S Members installed and it should change automatically

yep already changed, but there's other apps that might be affected by this like Pay apps or the Galaxy store right?

Yes but you're not missing much
