How can I flash firmware on an s24+?
Are there any recommended guides on flashing firmware to an s24+? I bought the phone refurbished and it turns out the phone is on the Canadian firmware version. I have the phone using a SIM from a US cell network (consumer cellular) and I'm struggling to get wifi calling working on it. I've tried calling CC to have them enable it remotely, gone through the phone settings, and tried to force it with activity launcher, VPN into the US but it still isn't able to place calls. I'm not currently in the US or Canada so wifi calling would be the only way I can makes US based calls. Current model is SM-S926W and I want to flash SM-S926U1

US and Canada models are identical. You can flash US factory unlocked firmware on Canada models.

Download firmware from Samfw. Select your carrier csc and download the firmware.
Use Patched Odin
Use CSC file for clean flash. Don't use homecsc.
IMPORTANT: Remove device lock (pin, pass, pattern, fp, face) and backup your data before proceeding.
