It sounds like the phone got blacklisted. Or there's some other reason that your provider won't allow it on their network. Contact them, and they should be able to tell you why it's not working

Hoping to flash the G973U firmware and cricket user data to enable wifi calling on the unlocked variant I bought. Anyone have any luck with this yet? I'll post back when I've attempted it with the results.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ricek:
Nope, just like the S9. Keep getting the error message "Please try to set up wifi calling again later". I even updated IMEI with Cricket and still can't get it to work. It's basically just ATT firmware, since clicking the user manual bring directly to ATT website. I'm flashing back to U1 now that WiFi calling doesn't work and signal is more less the same but with zero bloats.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sleek69:
Wish I saw your post sooner. Experienced the same and flashing back to U1 since I expect faster updates. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ricek:
Here's the latest ASBA update: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397915514

I flashed with this one so I don't have to go through updates...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
It shouldn't be "basically just AT&T firmware". If you did it correctly, it should show the Cricket splash screen (not AT&T) and Cricket apps and bloat (not AT&T)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ricek:
Yea, there's the Cricket splash screen with Cricket apps and bloats. However, in places like Mobile data it'll say something "Enable mobile data services such as email, web, browsing, AT&T Video Call ..." and also click on Help (User manual) just redirect to ATT device support. Since Cricket is AT&T MVNO, I'm assuming they share very similar firmware. In fact that in S9+, I flashed the AT&T firmware since there's no S9+ AIO USERDATA, on first boot it loaded Cricket splash screen but in the system it loads AT&T apps and bloat.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Oh that's super interesting. Correct, there's no USERDATA for them because they've never sold the S9+ - only the S9. So it's curious that they would have their own splash screen. But I know the video calling/VoLTE/wifi calling has kinda been a hit-or-miss thing for most people
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ricek:
Indeed, that's what makes me wonder that Cricket firmware is based off AT&T firmware, Cricket just add more bloats. Rest of the settings are exactly same on both. I think the carrier features really only worked on the color model they're selling. Which is Prism Black in this case with SKU SM-G973UZKA (XAA) for unlock (AIO) for Cricket. I think other color model just going be a miss.

I get WiFi calling and VoLTE on the standard unlocked U1 firmware on ATT. Exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Look at my other threads

All U and U1 models are Qualcomm - not sure why you're mentioning Exynos
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chronzy:
Oh I thought unlocked Exynos was U1, sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
No, firmware wouldn't be interchangeable otherwise. That's why you can't cross-flash a European version for example, because those ARE Exynos
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] djrecon:
I just got my new unlocked S10 all set up dialed in. Model SMG973U1ZBAX.

I put in my AT&T SIM card in and went to turn on Wifi calling and couldn't find it. I've since learned that if you have an unlocked phone, you can USE the AT&T network, but you can't get Wifi calling (which is a must for me), Visual Voicemail or HD Voice.

Are there directions on how to install the firmware from your original post? I downloaded and unzipped it, but i didn't see a file that was AT&T specific.

And am I understanding that the AT&T userdata isn't available? Will wifi calling, Visual Voicemail and HD Voice work without AT&T user data?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:

Tell in U1 CSC XAG and CHA in them the recording of the conversation when you call and the screen recording?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] agbva:
I'm stumped. My original S10 was an unlocked Verizon one, and I changed it first to unlocked. So I had a U1 device with version TMB/TMB/VWZ. I later changed the device to TMobile to get a better signal so it's now a U device with the same version, however, now I cannot get any OTA updates. The message is : "Your current software version isn't supported. Visit a service center."

I received the most recent TMO update with the September security via Smart Switch and a cable connected to a PC, which is OK, but I'd prefer the OTA option.

Any ideas?

Dear iBowToAndroid

I also need to use my S10 from T-Mobile sm-g973u, with other operators. Could you please send me the solution.

I already flashed the rom sm-g973u1, G973U1UES2BSI4, and in fact it does not allow the use of sim, of other operators.

One question please! I have a s10 sprint model i changed from U to U1 and then I reverted back to U but i realized that there werent any sprint defaults apps and still have XXA/XXA/XXA. If I want to restore the default apps from sprint and restore the default sprint CSC, do i need to flash user data in odin!????? Please any tip please would be great

Note: Im on august patch. And im not getting OTA update to septiember patch even though sprint have released it so far
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Yes, because the USERDATA is what gives you the bloatware
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] torhect:
Ok thanks! And doing that also the CSC will change? Because im on XAA/XAA/XAA even though now Im on U model and i realized that im not getting OTA from sprint to septiember patch.. im still on august patch!

Simply flashing firmware will never SIM unlock a smartphone - it's much more complicated and difficult than that. I can provide a professional recommendation if you need one

I'm about to sell my S10. I've flashed carrier firmware with AIO userdata. When the buyer puts their Sim card in, will they still be stuck with a Cricket splash screen? Do I need to flash U1 firmware again?

Or is carrier firmware universal? I'd hate for the buyer to miss out of volte or wifi calling if I decided to flash back to stock U1.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
The phone might automatically convert to the firmware of the SIM that's inserted, or it might not - no way to know until they do it

[MENTION=3163377]iBowToAndroid[/MENTION] Thanks for the amazing thread, wanted to double check before proceeding with:

1. I am on Baseband version: G973USQS2ASI6, Service provider SW ver. CHA/CHA/CHA. I want to move to U1 version for faster updates and removing unnecessary bloat. I downloaded this file:

U1 firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=290646 (SAU - 1 - 9.0).

2. Unzipped the file and got 4 files ( Am I using the correct file? )

3. Which version of ODIN should I use? There are a lot of versions going around.

4. Before flashing should I do a factory reset or ODIN will do that ? I have taken a backup from Smart Switch anyways for precaution.

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have a link to a Bootloader 2 version of the U1 firmware? The Frija tool is setting off virus alerts, so looking for an alternate source.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You can't flash that file. It's bootloader 1, while you're on 2.

The correct version of Odin to use has already been mentioned several times in the thread. You need 3.13.1 3b Patched

Frija does not have viruses, guaranteed. Either whitelist it, or use SamFirm

From U to U1

I bought the Verizon version in the US, I moved to a country in South America, the phone works fine here but things like Samsung Pay don't work anymore, it's impossible to add a card, so I heard that you can change Samsung Pay's country by flashing the phone.

Also I'm trying to get in the Beta program, but it's only available for T-Mobile and unlocked phones.

Can all of this be fixed if I flash the U1 firmware?

Thanks for the help everyone.

Anyone know where I can get the ODIN file for AT&T firmware ASI6?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You can flash SF6 using the link in the OP and then OTA to SI6
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] StoneyJSG:
Awesome, thanks. However, I am currently on SG8, so can I roll back to SF6 without bricking?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
It's impossible to brick a Galaxy. Even if you tried downgrading the bootloader, Odin would just FAIL and refuse to flash it. SF6 was the first bootloader 2 release, so yes, you can downgrade. I'd really recommend reading a few threads/posts about how to read and interpret Samsung build numbers, so that you can identify the bootloader version of a given release and when it was released, etc
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] StoneyJSG:
Awesome thanks man! I am on AT&T bootloader 2 I think with SG8 as my last 3 digits. The next one up is SGB. Could I just flash the SGB firmware ODIN file or do I have to flash SF6 first? I am trying to avoid an OTA to SIP.

Hello Everybody

I have SM-G970U1 version of Samsung Galaxy S10e.

The Android 10 / One-UI 2.0 Beta has not been made available to my phone model yet.

I am afraid that my phone model would become the last S10 to receive Android 10.

I am not rushing already to install a beta software, but i want your guidance on how can i install a different version of Android 10 final version made available to eligible to different S10e models.

I have attached the screenshots for you to find the required information about my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] solepablo:
Hello people, good afternoon, I wanted to ask you for some help.

Buy a samsung s10 plus from AT&T in the USA, and it's unlocked. Right now I am using a Claro SIM (I live in Argentina). The device works perfect, but I don't receive updates since I don't have the att coverage (I'm with the July compilation)

I want to flash it to make it look like factory unlocked, remove the bloatware applications and receive OTA via Samsung. Claro Argentina will not send me updates because here (as in all Latin America and Europe) they sell the finalized version in F, and I have SM-G975U.

According to what I could read in XDA, I could download the version that ends in U1 (I think the CSC would be XAA) to get the quick updates, which works with any operator.

What dou you recommend ?? Should I do factory reset before flashing? Anyone tried changing from U to U1? Should I leave the sim during the process?

If you can give me a hand I would greatly appreciate them!

I send you a huge hug and thanks again !!!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] StoneyJSG:
Doing a firmware flash in ODIN will factory data reset the phone. You can jump from U to U1 and back as long as you're on the right bootloader. You cannot go from bootloader 2 to bootloader 1, but you can go from bootloader 1 to bootloader 1 and bootloader 2 to bootloader 2 or bootloader 1 to bootloader 2. Once you are on bootloader 2 there is no going back. I would take the SIM out and then reinsert it after the phone boots back up.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] solepablo:

You're on ASF6 which is bootloader 2, which means you can only flash bootloader 2 firmware. ASG8 is the next one after ASF6, and ASGB is the one after ASG8.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] solepablo:

Would I get further ota updates after changing firmware region?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You'll have to wait until 10 is officially released for the U or U1 model, and then flash it.

You can only flash U or U1 firmware - nothing else

i just want to confirm i have this right before flashing

I have a completely stock Verizon Galaxy s10 (SM-G973u)..

in order to do install/run the a U1, i would have to use Odin patched, i don't want bloatware

Downloaded (G973U1_SAU_1)

i don't see USERDATA on the zip (maybe im not looking on the right place)

Here's what my odin looks like, i'm i ready to flash?

odin by euddys, on Flickr

Post#172 says i need to flash in recovery mode, if i do it in recovery mode, do i choose the; 'Apply update' option?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
1. You can only flash that version if your phone is still on bootloader 1

2. U1 firmware doesn't have USERDATA. The USERDATA file contains the carrier bloatware and features, so it's only found in U (carrier) firmware

3. Post 172 is regarding flashing an OTA zip, not flashing full firmware files. So ignore it
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] fascinateguy:
thanks for the quick response, how can i tell which bootloader i have?

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Being able to identify the bootloader version is part of Samsung flashing 101. I would highly recommend finding some of the "beginner's guide to Odin flashing"-type posts that are here on XDA - you're likely to learn a lot of other things that will be necessary in order to understand what you're doing and successfully accomplish it
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] StoneyJSG:

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] StoneyJSG:
