Ok cool. Same here. Just wanted to make sure others were aware there was a September leaked build available ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] teknotronik:
Just to be clear, if I buy a AT&T S10+, I can flash the factory unlocked firmware with no bloat and everything will work fine for use on Verizon Wireless?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
If the phone is already SIM unlocked, then yes
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] teknotronik:
So all the phones are 100% the same with different firmwares. Sorry to seem ignorant but I just want to make sure before I drop $550 on a used S10+. :P
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
That's half of the retail cost. I personally wouldn't buy it unless it's from an online site with buyer protections and a return policy. If it's 50% off, there's usually a reason why
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] teknotronik:
These are used on swappa the price of the S10+ is pretty low. Hell I'll return this note 10+ just to have a similar phone for $500 less..lol
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
The S10+ has been pretty easy to get refurbished (with warranty) or used for around $550 since May. There were a couple articles in the tech press about the rapid freefall in resale value for the S10 series phones.

That said buying from a reputable dealer with a return policy is always a good idea unless you have so much money you don't mind being scammed.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Wacky2bakky:
Looks like T-mobile and Verizon are pushing OTA BSI4 update. Happy to see we get new builds early still ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PTM2112:
So I have an AT&T S10+. Which version of the unbranded firmware do I use?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Any version that matches your current bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PTM2112:
Is that the same as the build number? Didn't see mine on the list.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
No, a bootloader is not the same as a Build Number. A bootloader version is only one digit of the Build Number
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PTM2112:
Hmm... Not sure which one I have then.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Since you appear to be brand new to flashing Samsung firmware, I would really recommend reading a bunch of "beginner's guide to Odin flashing"-type posts/threads - there are lots here on XDA. There are also lots about how to read a Samsung Build Number, in order to identify when it was released, and what bootloader version it is. Flashing firmware is not something that you want just jump into without any idea of what you're doing
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PTM2112:
I've used Odin before with much success in the past, but it's been a while. I had factory unlocked S8+ and S9+, but this S10+ is my first carrier-branded Samsung. The bloatware is super heavy, and I kind of regret not getting unlocked, but the price/financing was good.

When I downloaded firmware in the past I don't recall having to identify the boot loader, just the build number. Since this phone is new and I'll be stuck with it for a while, I just don't want to make any mistakes.

I will definitely check out XDA for tutorials on reading the build number. This is something I wasn't aware of. I appreciate your taking the time to reply. If you have any other tips, I'd be grateful to read them. Thanks a lot for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Samsung increments the bootloader on all of their models, every few updates or so. (The US version of the S7 is currently on bootloader 10, for example). That's important because you can't flash firmware that's from a lower/older bootloader than what the device currently has. You can only flash firmware that has the same bootloader version, or you can flash a newer version- just not an older one.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Misterxtc:
Your bootloader revision is the 10th spot in the build number. Right now it's either 1 or 2. I get the latest U1 firmware here. A good set of instructions are here and the modified Odin you want to use is in post 2 of this thread. PM me if you need any more help so we do not clutter this thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] teknotronik:
I got a Verizon S10+ and it is running build PPR1.180610.011.G975USQS2ASGB, I have confirmed that putting an AT&T SIM gives me network ability to call and what not. I want to flash the stock U1 branded firmware, is it okay if I flash G975U1UEU1ASD8 with Odin?

Edit: I am going to try flashing G975U1UES2BSI4
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Rev3ge07:
How did this go I have the Verizon one as well same build number I need to flash to Metro but dont see the correct firmware

---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------

Where can I find the updated firmware to switch my Verizon S10+ to Metro current baseband version is G975SQS2ASGB?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] we87:
I have a tmobile branded phone, with U1 firmware G975U1UEU1ASD5 -- I have been hoping for a snapdragon root and was trying to keep my binary at 1, but at this point I dont think thats going to happen :(

My question is: Is there a signal difference between U1 and TMB firwmare? More specifically, does the 600mhz band still get received on U1? Before I flash I just figured I'd ask.

Eager to check out night mode. Im not even sure what else is new but thats good enough for me :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] twoxa:
I'm not sure who's maintaining this thread but it's pretty useless without keeping those links up to latest FWs.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You can get both U1 and Metro firmware from either SamFirm or Frija

In theory, there should be no signal difference. But if you want to stay on binary 1, then just flash a U1 package that's binary 1. Then you can go right back if you don't like it
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
I agree but the OP thinks everybody should be using Samfirm or Frija so the only way a thread with up to date firmware links is going to happen is if somebody else starts a new thread.

Having not owned a Samsung phone since the Galaxy 3 an XDA firmware downloads thread where the links aren't updated is completely new to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
It's new to you because before SamFirm came around, there wasn't a way to pull the firmware files directly from Samsung's servers, as soon as they're released. The major resource was SamMobile, but because you're limited to dial-up download speeds unless you pay for a subscription, those few who did pay uploaded the firmware to AFH for the rest of the users. Now, anyone can go get the latest firmware straight from those tools. So there's not much point in downloading the firmware and then uploading it to AFH and posting a link for it, when anyone can just go get it themselves straight from the source - especially when you take into consideration that not all carriers get the same version, so trying to constantly stay up with all the different carrier versions can be quite a chore
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
I no longer have this phone, and although I still updated for a little while after, life got in the way and limited my time available for XDA. Ideally you should use SamFirm or Frija to download the firmware at much faster speeds.

Big thanks to [MENTION=3163377]iBowToAndroid[/MENTION] for answering questions when I wasn't around.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
It's new to me because I've owned phones from Huawei, Xiaomi, OnePlus, LG, Motorola, Essential and Google since my Galaxy 3 and every XDA thread with the header firmware download links actually contains

firmware download links that are updated.

Naming your thread 'don't even bother looking here for firmware download links' would be more accurate.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mopartonyg:
We would all be so grateful if you stopped complaining and took over the thread and updated everytime new fw was available.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] teknotronik:
Worked great!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] C-4Nati:
Do we have to flash every file in the corresponding field in Odin? I get it fails each time, but I haven't flashed anything in Odin in a while, and when I used to do it, I don't remember checking every box, so I'm probably doing something wrong. Any suggestions please?

---------- Post added at 08:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

This is what I get every time.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You're trying to downgrade the bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] C-4Nati:
Well dang, lol. Should I just uncheck BL and leave everything else the same?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
It's not just about the BL file. You can't flash ANY files from a revision 1 firmware to a revision 2 device
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] C-4Nati:
I have a unlocked Snapdragon variant directly from Samsung and it's on the newest firmware in the September security patch. I tried to look through this OP and the OP your thread, but I'm not sure which from where to use for this. I'm fine with still using unlocked and or I was actually thinking of using metro's firmware as that's who my carrier is.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
If you decide to flash carrier firmware it has to be bootloader version 2 or later.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] C-4Nati:
Is that a file I'll flash on its own and then flash the firmware files in the OP? Do you know of any threads that have the bootloader information and how to flash it? Just searched on mobile and didn't find anything. Thanks for any assistance
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
My threads tell you where you can get the firmware from
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] C-4Nati:
Ok thanks

Issues

Could I please get a guide or some assistance. I have an ATT branded firmware on a SM-G975U (unlocked to use any sim) but on odin I keep getting <ID:0/006 SetupConnection..> when I click start it just sits at that forever, no loading bars on either device. Also very new to Samsung devices.. used to ADB FastBoot.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] crixley:
Remove MD5 from the filename leaving only .tar and also make sure you have the Samsung drivers installed. Also which Odin are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Skitsoboy13:
Thanks for the response,

MD5 is already removed, yes I have the drivers, Odin3 v3.13 3b patched
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] crixley:
And you adb reboot bootloader and pressed volume up?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Skitsoboy13:
I used the hardware method. I'm on the downloading screen on the phone and odin recognizes the device but that's about it. which files should I be loading? all 5? which csc goes where?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
That's a USB issue. Start by restarting your PC. If it still does the same, use a different port and/or a different cable
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Skitsoboy13:
okay, I've tried 2 cables and 2 different ports, but I'll continue troubleshooting.. also which files need to be loada/checked on odin? home csc and csc? where do these go respectively?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jwarrior319:
It either home_csc or csc. Home_csc will keep your apps and settings and the regular csc will factory reset your device. Load each file ending with ap, bl, or cp in the corresponding slots. Only use userdata if you are resetting your device( if you're using regular csc).
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
Don't copy/paste it. You have to type it, or nothing happens.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] HtcOnekid:
I am new to this how would you go about downloading and using that software
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] TechSilver13:
There is a thread within this forum. I recommend you find that so I don't repeat a long post. You will need to Google how to flash firmware with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bossei:
I get WiFi calling on my UI without adding any TMO firmware. I thought what you wouldn't get is HD, advance SMS and video calling? I really wish I could get these features in some way without flashing a new firmware. I don't want the hassle of refrashing every time there's an update.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
TMO uses stock Android WiFi Calling even since 6.0. You only lose RCS and Video Calling from the list of major features. Once the S10+ has true Google RCS enabled, it will also work in the U1 firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bossei:
Thanks; of course, the keyword here is WHEN! Truthfully I don't do video calling; there are other apps for that anyway and RCS is only useful if your recipient is on the same network as of now.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kcsevo:
Sorry. I actually meant video calling. Sorry again about the confusion.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bossei:
Got it; thanks...
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kcsevo:
I went back to TMOware just to see if I was missing out but couldn't take it. The U1 is just way to smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bossei:
Are you saying that the unlocked firmware is smoother than the TMO firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nugzo:
i didnt c/p
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kcsevo:
Absolutely!

Is there any benefit of installing the TMo version over the stock unlocked version?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:

Please check existing threads before creating a new one - helps cut down on duplicate threads.

RCS, Video calling, and VVM. None of these are must haves imo.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elite-fusion:
Visual VM i dont care about because everything goes to my GV either way which does the same things.

Video calling I can always use Hangouts for other hangout users, but I've used this 0 times considering it has to be samsung to samsung either way.

What's RCS?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Skitsoboy13:
alright thanks I believe im doing it right, so what would be in the userdata if I am resetting (I am)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
The USERDATA file
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Skitsoboy13:
alright I appreciate you putting with my noobness... where do I acquire that file, did I just read over it in the guide somehow?

edit: new error loading with home csc instead, now says a sha 256 error...

New update out for u1 models
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] torhect:
Can someone help me on this please. I have a s10 + sprint model but I decided to switched to U1 unlock firmware to get rip of all sprint's bloatware. but yesterday I decided to get back to U and I realized all the sprint apps still gone and CSC still XAA/XAA/XAA. my question is how Can I restored everything back as it was before...!!! because of wrong matches between model and CSC, im not getting Ota update from sprint. and when I checked out the update on samfrew app it says the current error: " unfortunately, your model and region is not available yet.!!" Any suggestion to help me on this? maybe if I flash user_ data can help things out?

note : I live oustside EE.UU and my sim is unlock to use with my country carriers.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You should not have to have the Sprint apps installed in order to get software updates. If you want the Sprint apps reinstalled, then you need a Sprint SIM in order to get those back
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
With U1 firmware you should get OTA updates directly from Samsung if you flashed correctly and did no mix and match with the firmware . U1 was updated to the October security patch earlier in the week and for the last few months has been getting monthly updates pretty regularly. Why do you need OTA updates from Sprint specifically instead of Samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I think you missed the part where s/he went back to U
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
I just found it odd the owner wanted to switch back to Sprint firmware from U1 if s/he wasn't a Sprint customer.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
The latest firmware is universal, which means it is set by SIM. As long as your flashed U1 firmware correctly, you will get OTAs from Samsung directly. But if you really want to get back on Sprint, you will need to get your hands on a Sprint SIM and insert it in the phone for the initial boot after a clean flash. It doesn't have to be active, but it has to be one of theirs in order for the Sprint apps to get installed/configured.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jwarrior319:
Thank you so much. Samsung is extremely stupid in my opinion. The one thing they should follow apple on is making the public beta available to anyone. The more feedback you can get the better. Android 10 so far has better battery life and seems to be a lot faster. Overall its much better when it comes to user experience and built in privacy options. Had i been able to join the beta officially i would have jumped right on extracting the zip for everyone. Hopefully those who are in the beta and on here will help report the bugs for those of us who cant.
