I only developed the install instructions and tested methods. Krog18 and stang5litre did the work of getting the zips compiled together. But I would suggest opening the zips in this thread and replacing the files in there with s10 files. Of course you'll at least need root.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] monroe0328:
Ok cool, I can give it a shot...

Right now it's only speculation that John wu's magisk/root method works on g9750, I suppose I can try it, or just have to wait for confirmed root on my device.

SM-G9600

Hi, I have a G9600 that I would like to install a verizon firmware on to but I am new to the scene. I would be happy to test out the firmware but I feel like I am missing a few steps in the process...
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
No need for Verizon firmware. Just use whatever firmware comes with your device and follow the instructions. Then let me know if you have any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] newskin:
I'm just running into this after years of hoping for a bootloader unlockable S9 that I can use on Verizon. So much appreciated to Krog18, stang5litre and klabit87 for all your time and help! Quick question, I'm going to try and buy one today, but I see that on Amazon there are two G9650's. One is dual sim and the other is single sim. But they both say that their G9650's. Will this work on either? Because I will definitely go for the dual sim if that's the case. Thank you again!
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
Yes it will work either way. I have the single sim and Stang has a dual sim. And they are both indeed the same model G9650.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] newskin:
Oh, that's great news! Thank you all again. Too bad i'm not seeing any sales but i'm going to start keeping an eye out.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] recursive_x:
Steps

So I already have the latest firmware on my phone. Do you have a link to what tools I should use to flash the rest of the two files onto my phone?

Edit: I'm not sure I understand how i'm going to flash the ODM then the EFS

Figured it was Qualcomm Snapdragon
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
Use twrp because they are flashable zips.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Silenced08:
i am trying to flash my s9 plus to the verizon software and do i need to run twrp thought the phone or computer?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
You don't need to flash vzw firmware. What model is your device?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Silenced08:
its a S9 Plus SM-G9650/DS

i plugged the sim card in and can make calls and have data but can not send pictures and didn't know if that was the issue. i have tried editing the APN file and it will not edit and also tried to make a new one and it just disappears when i hit save. any insight would be great.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
Install twrp on your device and flash the zip. That should get everything working properly.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] mobileanimal:
Hey can anyone confirm for me that the SM-G9650 is working with Dual VoLTE - 4G with VoLTE on both SIM slots simultaneously like the G960FD/G965FD does?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
sorry for the slightly off topic question, but i saw your comments about the dual sim single sim phones and it sparked a question. Do all the S9's have room for a dual sim tray? it would be pretty unfathomable for samsung to build a different set of guts to fit a single sim vs the dual sim tray.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
Fathomable or not, it is true. I myself have a single sim model and others have a dual sim model. I have not disassembled mine to look and see for myself if the hardware is truly different or if it's simply a software thing but they do exist. The tray itself is the same size. The dual sim models just opt for either an additional sim or an external micro SD card. The single sim model tray only lets me fit one sim card and one external SD card.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
That's my point. Is the hardware there? Is there another sim reader behind the one? If there is, one would only really need to flash the DS version of the G960F 4 firmware files in Odin
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
No. Not the F variant for one and second there is no separate firmware for the ds models.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Heathmcdonald:
Try txt "apn" to 611611
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
so all the g960fd's are just running the g960f firmware and within the OS, it has code built in to check for another sim detected by hardware?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
Yes. Same for g9600 and g9650.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
im really curious if samsung made different boards for dual sim vs single. i dont have a need for dual sim capability, so its kinda "meh" for me, but it would be good general info to have
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] darkensx:
Can't get data to work on mvno (Straight Talk might be others) (Verizon based is only one with coverage in my area 03598) the 4gLTE icon shows up after flashing the files for pie mention in the OP but I was able to make calls and send mms prior to flashing anyway.. still can just Data refuse to function any idea what going on?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] klabit87:
I'll have to look more at this very soon. I will do some checking and testing to see what's going on.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] darkensx:
Attached pictures showing various network settings so you see what I'm seeing currently. Might aid in issue tracking not sure but still at least a start point lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
how did you get to that screen?

also, your data issue is very likely APN related
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] darkensx:
4G LTE/3G Network Secret Setting app there is a way via shortcut master lite or pro as well it normally can be invoked via a dialer code but flashing the files in this thread seems to stop or disable them from working.. also I can't change the apn settings it won't let me save changes Ive seen Verizon devices or devices with Verizon Sims do this... must be a Verizon thing anyway oddly enough 3G will work on rare occasions but gets messed up for a while if wifi connects I will get a 1x icon with no data ability but can make calls and send MMS and sms. Plus as far as apn settings I can't find straight talk's for their Verizon based sim only the GSM based Sims (att, TMobile) not can I find the bands they use only the GSM bands. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
are you using the SM-G9650?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] darkensx:

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] darkensx:
Yes and no I can create one but it won't save it unless I leave the MMSC and the two Multimedia message fields blank it won't save it deletes itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
Stock vzw firmware does the same thing. Is there a custom rom you can run on that model?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] darkensx:
The Stang ROM if works with

U5 bootloader is the only one I'm aware of I don't know if there is any other pie custom ROMs especially that are fully functional.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Youdoofus:
The similar problem I had with my old S4 and my dad's old S5 (which I'm still working on) is the same pretty much. On the S4 it was the identical issue, with the S5, that's a straight talk branded phone and it won't allow for any prl entry at all. Same symptom on both tho. The only solution I've ever come up with is a ton that allows for custom prls

Hi,

I need to run a smartphone with (the very old) android 4.1.2 :(

some servers do not agree with cipherspecs installed on android 4.1.2 anymore

are there any chance to import actual cipherspecs to system TLS stack, if phone is rooted?

Firefox on Android seems to bring it's own cipherspecs, so I can use firefox to establish a TLS-connection to same servers, but not with "normal" applications.

any help, hints are welcome

No dear, never flash a software not intended for specific model. It is for h990ds, which is dual sim, you might brick ur device.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] karkand:
It is good then :D

Good for you! :D

You can boot to recovery(TWRP) if you are already flashing TWRP by shutdown your phone or just remove your battery and put it back again, THEN press and hold your volume down & power button, once the LG Logo shows up, remove the power button for about 0.1-0.9s then press and hold it again till you get to some dialogue for YES and NO, just choose YES twice and then you will be got into the recovery(TWRP). :)

You should follow Dirty Santa process at first. :p

You should ask zinou213 on the second post. ;)

No, it is not :(

Yeah you are right :good:

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hahmad78:
either you use zip file as in this thread, or use lg up patched version.

zip file like normal file flashing in twrp.

in case of lg up patched, select partition dl option, select all partitions when prompted EXCEPT RECOVERY , RECOVERY.BAK, ABOOT, ABOOT.BAK, and flash oreo kdz,.

when flashing will reach 80%, mobile will reboot, dont let it boot normal, BOOT IT INTO TWRP BY BUTTON COMBINATION, flash mk2000 kernel and magisk for rooting, than reboot.

in this process important step is NOT LET THE MOBILE BOOT NORMAL, AS IT RESTARTS, PRESS VOLUME BUTTON AND POWER TO BOOT IT TO TWRP.

which ever method you adopt, FULLY SAVE OR BACKUP YOUR DATA INCLUDING INTERNAL STORAGE ON PC.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lebatman:
Dumb question here:

Does this rom have anything different from the default Stock Oreo that my phone updated to OTA? (H990ds)

Or is it just rootable, compared to mine which is reputed to be troublesome to root. Anything else? Speed boosts?

this will work only if previously a stock android 7 was installed? What if a custom like LOS or RR was installed?

i have not installed or los, but i think, it will still work, bcoz rr or los dont change partition table in v20.

if zip is not found, use kdz with lg up patched version.

nothing to be afraid, but ONE THING KEEP IN MIND, DO BACK UP YOUR DATA IN PC
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
what will happen if the recovery boot fails and the device tries booting without MK2000 kernel? I often fail this combo vol- + ( power + release 2 sec. + power ).

I have finally been able to download the zip file but like for two others i downloaded from two different threads here in xda-dev it starts hanging on the LG logo. I followed the process as described, i.e. clear /data, flash MK2000 right after the stock zip rom and clear both cache and dalvik. Initially i tried without magisk, and then with. Nothing changes.
