I tried this with these exact settings. It started loading the various files and then failed. Now I get a message on my phone "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC Software". What do I do now? Please help!

Does anyone know if Verizon video calling works on the unlocked version after converting to Verizon firmware?

I could not figure it how to enable video calling. It seems it was possible to enable on Nougat devices, but it does not work on Oreo anymore.

Does SMS through wifi work without flashing verizon firmware? I don't really need wifi calling, but wifi texting is a necessity. Don't want to lose Samsung stuff if I don't have to. Thanks in advanced!

Hello, what is that caller id/spam features in the Unlocked Sammy if you would sharethe knowledge please
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] featureza8336:
When somebody calls you, the phone app uses Hiya to pull up caller ID on the number. It allows you to easily block numbers after calls. It also works on outgoing calls.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mycomputerisjunk:
I have the unlocked note 9 and flashed this. It worked great and all the verizon garbage installed. Only thing I noticed is that I still don't see any wifi calling and it says it has a system update, but when I tap on it nothing happens.. Did I miss something in the flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
I was excited to open this thread because I thought someone had figured out how to enable the Wi-Fi Calling on U1 firmware. But I guess not. What a shame. They only recently added it to U1 firmware for the S9 and S9+, and I was almost certain it would appear in ARJ5 for Note. Sadly, it didn't. However, I did spot Carrier Login Engine as a system APK. That's one of the things that was added to make it work on the S9.

I believe the other fix involved permissions. I assume a new build will be required to fix the permissions problem, but perhaps not. Has anyone actually looked into making it work without flashing carrier firmware?

---------- Post added at 09:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ----------

Probably because you're looking in the wrong place. While unlocked firmware keeps that setting in the Phone apk's settings menu, carrier firmware usually doesn't. In the case of Verizon firmware, it's at Settings/Connections/Advanced Calling.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mycomputerisjunk:
It wasn't under advanced calling. I re-flashed the csc file and it's available now. Not sure why it didn't work the first time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
I've only had the phone for a week or so but wifi calling has been available for me since day 1 with my VZW Sim running out the box firmware although it did get an ota shortly after powering it on.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
Yes, that is U firmware (carrier branded), you'll be able to get Wifi Calling.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
I guess I misunderstood the OP, but and reading it again, I see that I did.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Must be Verizon specific issue, as WiFi calling works out of the box when I'm using a Sprint sim inside my U1 model.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
Yes it is carrier by carrier. For Note 9, only TMB and SPR allow it.

For S9/+, TMB, SPR, and VZW allow it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Ok cheers. RCS doesn't work using the stock Samsung messaging app though.

international N9

I got N9600 international dual sim phone few weeks ago from Ebay, but the VoLTE is not working on T-Mobile and its giving me a message "VoLTE is not supported by your current software version. contact customer service for more details".

I need the Wifi calling to work.

Is this Verizon solution gonna work for international phones with T-Mobile too ? or do I factory reset without SIM?

I read some of the comments and I got more confused with my phone lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] AFCA_Haxx0r:
thank you my wifi calling works like a charm now
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mistah_mumford:
I just bought an SM-N960U1 from Swappa. Will I need to do this for Wi-Fi calling to work? If so, where’s a good tutorial to get it done? I’m just switching back from iPhone so it has been quite a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
For now, yes. Soon I expect Note to have Wi-Fi Calling on Verizon with U1 firmware. S9/S9+ got it over the summer.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mistah_mumford:
Thanksgiving was the holiday when I'd need it and I had my Pixel 2 XL so I was fine. If it may come soon I might hold off. If I get antsy, what's a good tutorial on flashing the VZW firmware with ODIN?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mistah_mumford:
What's the difference between the firmware in the OP and what is listed on SamMobile? They seem to have 2 different names. I entered my model (SM-N960U1) and filtered on US (VZW). Didn't know you had to be a paid subscriber to download either.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mistah_mumford:
I've got Odin3 on my wife's Windows laptop and I've got the firmware from that XDA thread and the one from SamMobile since they have different numbers.

My Unlocked 256GB will be here Thursday then I'll decide if I want to wait out VZW to update the Note 9 like they did the S9/S9+ or or just flash the VZW firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] biglag:
can someone please tell me.... i have the n9600 model and i want to do this firmware flash to get the verizon features. Will it work on my model?

Firmware Change

Ok so I done this from the unlocked N960U1 US Version and I've lost night mode and it looks like a really old version of the s8 model nothing looks like the note model at all and this was for the note 9 did I do this correctly????
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sailorkane:
Update?

I see that this thread is a bit old, but I just bought a SM-N960u1. Put it on Verizon. Need wifi calling. CrazyApe18 seems to believe it would "soon" be available.

So, what's the current status? How do I get wifi calling without trying to reflash my firmware? Not really comfortable with the potential to brick a $1K phone.

Anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
The only way to get Verizon WiFi Calling for sure is to flash their U firmware. You can try clean flashing the latest U1 firmware and hoping for the best, but Verizon doesn't have the best record for making WiFi Calling available on unbranded firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sailorkane:
I called Verizon tech support and they connected me to Samsung who swore wifi calling was unavailable on the u1. I asked about flashing verizon firmware and Samsung tech said no. But he was probably just blowing me off.

I think I'll just keep the phone I have and live with (without) it. Still not comfortable with flashing it myself. Would probably brick it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
Samsung cannot officially endorse our use of Odin to change firmware, so they'll always say no.

It's nearly impossible to brick a modern Samsung device by flashing firmware. All Snapdragon models (US/Canada) are bootloader locked, which has the side effect of preventing incompatible firmware from being flashed.

All you need to do is download the newest U firmware for VZW, flash it in Odin, and factory reset in recovery after.

The entire process takes less than 15 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sailorkane:
Wow. Sounds easy when you say it fast. My phone is on Android Version 8.1.0. Flashing "U" firmware onto a "U1" device is OK?

So latest Odin is 3.13.1 Samsung? The latest CSC and PDA for 8.1.0 is this?:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
You have Oreo, but the Pie update is available. Go to this thread, and use that tool to download what you need.

https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?ur...share_tid=3910594&share_fid=3793&share_type=t

Samsung devices of S8/Note 8 and higher can be swapped between U and U1 with just an Odin flash and factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sailorkane:
Thanks for the response. I appreciate your help. I downloaded Frija and it found a version 9 update. My phone is stuck on 8.1.0. Tried to do a software update on the phone several times and it just said network problem. Do I have to update my phone to Pie first? Or force Frija to use an older flash? So Frija will do everything at once? Find and retrieve the latest firmware and flash it on my phone? What else do I have to do to make that work? Do I need samsung usb drivers on my PC? Win 10 PC
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
You do need Samsung drivers installed. You will download the latest firmware through Frija, and then use Odin to flash it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sailorkane:
Frija pulls up firmware for Pie. I have Oreo. I have tried to manually update my software on the phone and it says server error and won't do it. Can I flash Pie firmware on an Oreo phone? Or should I wait until Verizon updates my phone? Or go back to Sammobile where I can specify 8.1.0 firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
You need to download the software through Frija, and then put your phone in bootloader mode to flash it through Odin.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Ericart:
Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (model: SM-N950F) since may 2018.

The screen failed recently just after updating Bixby. But I don't think it's due to this update.

May be an electrical problem? But before sending back my Note 8 to fix the screen I have to backup my datas.

With an almost all green screen and a password to enter as to unlock the phone, it's quite an impossible mission.

But I just did the job today and succeeded to backup my datas on my pc laptop with the Smart Switch Samsung Software.

I have professional "Samsung Notes" and it's urgent for me to find them back for work.

The problem is how to open the sdoc.snmm file in the directory SAMSUNGNOTE (from the backup stored on my laptop).

I renamed the file as a zip one and opened it with Winzip which can now display 3 files as following:

SDOC.BK, SMARTSWITCHBACKUP.JSON, et SSMDUMMYVALUE.XML.

SDOC.BK is the bigger one. Almost 97% of the total 3 files percentage.

I think it's this file which contains all Samsung Notes I did with my S pen!

But how to manage that file? I red on other forums that we can read the Samsung notes files as PDF files from a Windows PC.

But the files would have to be first exported in PDF format from the Note 8. And as I can not read anything on my screen Note 8,

I can do nothing from the Note 8.

Then, is it possible to open that SDOC.BK with a specific software? Or do I have to change the extension BK into PDF?

If you could help me to find a solution it would be great!

Regards,

Eric (from Paris!)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Max_Terrible:
It's a little late and I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter anymore by now, but I'm pretty sure those are proprietary formats. Renaming them won't make it able to read it. I think the only way is to export them from the Notes app, unfortunately.

Hello

I tried to get the samsung notes application but the download link failed. I chatted with US samsung support. They say that this application is no more available since january 2018 as they have bugs to fix.

8 months later it still being "off"!! It must be very big bugs! If someone succeeded to manage his samsung notes with a Windows 10 PC it would be kind to share a copy of it. Please note that the french samsung support was not aware of this problem as the software download link was "broken". They added this was a Microsoft problem as the samsung note software is distributed by and for Microsoft corporation. By the way, the customer is invited to find a solution with Microsoft not with Samsung! What about the samsung engineers working to fix the soft? I do not understand this way to give... "no solution". It's not serious for a such big Company like Samsung! Thanks for your attention. Regards Eric

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Jasmine Poon:
If any of you are still wondering, use this link filext.com/file-extension/SDOC . upload your .sdoc file, from that click the text.dat one at the very end then copy and paste to a word document or something. You will need to edit it but at least you can still keep everything you typed. For pictures it is the one with .JPG . Sometimes the text is saved as JPG, in this case press the one that says .spd which is like another file, then click the very first one (think it ends with .page) then you can copy the text which they will show below. Hope this helps since it helped me recover quite a couple of .sdoc notes. :)

This link, from my Android phone, works to push the Samsung Notes app to my PC Windows account:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/samsung-notes/9nblggh43vhv

Trying to install the app from the store directly from the non-Samsung PC had failed.

The Samsung Notes Windows 10 app can sync your notes between your phone and your PC.

I hope that helps.

Not sure what exact limit is but there are 2 threads on here already about micro SD cards speeds. I suggest going through those to get an answer.

Also bear in mind that alot of those advertised speeds are theoretical speeds and you will most likely never see that speed under actual use. At least in my experience
