[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Ndaoud360:
Curious though, I have an HTC U12 Plus and switching soon to s10 and with my 12, I can boot to TWRP without having it installed with command prompt. With that I can install what ever I need including Magisk.

Could that work the same for the s10? Booting up TWRP only when you need it, so it's not actually installed.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CountVonKrolock:
I've been looking for one but so far, nothing. I have been taking down the names of every app I see reported as not working when root is present and not hidden. So far I got:

- Barclays banking apps (and likely other banking apps)

- Netflix

- Pokémon Go

- Snapchat

- Sky Go

- Samsung Pay

- Google Pay (or whatever it's called these days)

- Any app that uses the SafetyNet API.

There are also others which can be found here https://github.com/devadvance/rootcloak/wiki/Working-and-Nonworking-Apps
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] the_dealer:
My bank's (BankOzk) app says my phone is rooted and security could be compromised from root, but it only said that the first time I opened the app and it works fine. Same thing with some bluetooth master locks at work, app says it won't work because my rig is rooted , but works anyways

Does John WU have a donate set up? Maybe we pay his electric bill and get higher on the priority list
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CountVonKrolock:
Ahahahah not sure it works like that.

But he does have a Patreon pinned to the top of his Twitter account, and has set a "new goal" of $900/month to, and I quote, "Cover my purchase of Samsung Galaxy S10, let's make Samsung a first class Magisk citizen :)".

Currently he's getting $374 per month...so...if you feel like making a $526 contribution, I guess that would force his hand into dropping what he's doing and focus on the S10 :laugh:

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CountVonKrolock:
Exynos versions of the S10 line CAN be rooted.

That's not the problem we've been discussing. The problem is that, according to the guy behind Magisk, you can't run TWRP and Magisk at the same time. Which means you can't hide root from apps that look for it and, therefore, you might end up with apps that simply won't work until you unroot your phone.

From Wu's words, it does seem that you can still use TWRP to root and flash stuff unto the phones. And he was also able to get Magisk running on the S10. Just not both at the same time which means, for the time being, the simple process you could use on the S8 and S9 will not work for the S10.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jonathanfv:
The Chinese phone also has an FM radio. I have a G9750. I can confirm the radio is working. It doesn't work with Next Radio, but there is a radio app already installed on the phone and it works.

Also, yes, the bootloader is unlocked. That G9750 model kicks ass.

Edit: sorry, I just saw someone else said the same thing earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] elite-fusion:
Where did you purchase the phone from?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Ndaoud360:
Just curious what carrier if any are you using it on. I'm planing on getting that model but need to know if it can be worked onto Verizon. I know the note 9 Chinese version was able to work on it by itself or with a mod of some sort.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] warking:
your bootloader is unlocked?

how do you confirm this?

I have a G9730(S10) Hongkong Variant, OEM unlock enabled in developer options, but I saw oem lock: ON in download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jonathanfv:
Pdaplaza.ca is where I got my phone from.

I'm in Canada with Public Mobile. I checked before buying and SM-G9750 supports the same bands as SM-G9650, which is the Chinese/HK VERSION of the S9+. So you can simply look at a phone compatibility checker online, and if the S9+ from China/HK is compatible with your carrier, then you're good to go.

Actually, I can't confirm 100% because my download mode doesn't show anything about OEM lock. Here I included a photo of my phone in download mode for reference. I'm wondering if it doesn't show anything related to OEM lock because it simply is unlocked to start with? I tried installing CROM Service, but it crashes. Like, when I open it it stays blank then has some kind of exception error or something. Recovery mode also doesn't mention OEM lock at all. But I remember on my Nexus 5 and Oneplus One. They both mentioned it. And I just checked my HTC 10,same thing. Is it possible that OEM lock is simply non-existent on the HK model? I think the only way to find out would be to flash something like TWRP on my phone, no? This is my first Samsung, I haven't used Odin yet.

Should I give it a shot?

Edit: I disabled OEM unlock in the developer options, restarted, then entered download mode again in case it would say OEM lock: on. It didn't. However, when I reactivated OEM unlock in the developer options, it did ask me for a password and told me security features would be disabled.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] warking:
I believe that you phone could be unlockable but is NOT oem unlocked right now.

You need to download and install samsung usb driver on a Windows PC and boot into download mode(vol- and bixby) while USB connected to the PC.

Then you will get some kind of warning message saying if you want to continue then press vol+, At that screen you have 2 choices:

1. just press vol+ to the next screen as that in your first attachment, but this time, you will see texts at the upper left corner.

2. keep pressing vol+ until the next screen which will guide you to do the real bootloader unlocking(all data would be wiped)

so the missing part for you is a PC and usb driver from samsung
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jonathanfv:
What a great response, thank you! I'll try it tomorrow or soon, and I'll report back. Just to make sure I got this right, this is the official Samsung USB Windows driver you mentioned?

https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows

I'll back everything up and try. I really want some work to be done for the Snapdragon S10 series, and I'd like to contribute at least a little bit, even if it's only convincing more people that SM-G9750 is a good choice to develop on.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] elite-fusion:
now debating if its worth returning the US Unlocked (G975U1) version to get the G9750 version instead.

How do they differ between one another? Except Band 71 (which I cannot say I care about all that much to get 5G type speeds), are there any others reasons why NOT to get the model from another country to use here in the US with TMo?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] dr4go:
Thanks a lot for this information. Now the 100 million dollar question: Are there expected more devs for the Qualcomm or Exynos variant?

I'm asking that, because a week ago I have specifically ordered the Exynos variant, because I expected some troubles with the bootloader unlocking things... although I would have liked the Snapdragon a whole lot more...

I didn't receive my S10, yet, so it would just be a bit of a hassle to order the 2nd one and returning the Exynos variant, but I find that really hard to decide... Any opinions?

[MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] for example has the Exynos variant and I don't really know regarding the compatibility regarding the two chipsets...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CountVonKrolock:
Well, considering that the Qualcomm version seems limited to China and the USA, and in only one of these two countries the bootloader can be unlocked, I'd say the Exynos version will be the one who gets the development. After all, it's much easier and cheaper for a developer to find a good deal on an Exynos version than a Qualcomm one so even from the financial stand point it just makes sense for them to focus on it. Cheaper, unlockable and with a wider audience.

Don't return the Exynos version.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jonathanfv:
The Exynos version will certainly get more attention from developers. But I think the Snapdragon will also see a little bit of development. Choosing between the two will be weighting the pros and cons with what you want. I chose the Snapdragon knowing that I'll probably be happy with only a little bit of development. Like, in a couple years, when it doesn't get updated anymore, I'd like to get something like LineageOS. Until then, I'll be happy with stock ROM and root. Maybe a custom kernel if there's one available. My main reason to choose the Snapdragon was that I thought it would be a better experience because the chipset is slightly better both in terms of performance and in battery. So far I'm happy, the battery seems to last forever. I don't drain it to zero percent, but extrapolating, I constantly get 8+ hours SoT playing games (the day before yesterday I had like 5 hours SoT at 50% battery), and they're buttery smooth.

I do want some development to happen for the SD version tho. The unlocked SD could be the better version of both worlds. I'd be down to send a bit of money John Wu's way, and I hope other guys would be too. Magisk on the SD ones would be pretty darn sweet, and now that he's figuring out how to make it work for Exynos, I don't think it would be that complicated to make it work with SD too.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] dr4go:
Thanks for your opinions... I'd say the chances of sending the Exynos back is at about 30%. I also believe, that more development is going to be for Exynos and that is my main argument.

I'm not such a complicated person, but I chose the S10 in favor for the Mate 20 Pro, because of the unlockable bootloader and (future-proof) root. Currently I rarely play something - if so, the tendency of choosing the Snapdragon would be much higher. I'm more interested in doing productive things... or watching videos....

Root is an absolute must for me, but that's only the start of the story. It continues with (Ed)Xposed and god knows where it ends. Yes, LinageOS would be nice, but that might also easier happen for Exynos...

According to the latest findings / the newer update (asc8) the battery on Exynos improved a whole lot, which was to be expected imho. But no way the performance will come any closer to the snappy.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
1. No warranty

2. Root (hopefully)

3. Unlockable bootloader

4. Samsung Pay will not work in US [MENTION=2675743]floyddroyd[/MENTION] says it works for him

5. No band 71 for rural area coverage, if you use T-mobile

6. No Carrier aggregation, LTE speeds are very slow on T-mobile and possibly other US carriers
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] floyddroyd:
I have this phone on TMo and the only disappointing thing is no carrier aggregation, 4x4 MIMO or 256 QAM. My download speeds are considerably slower than on my Galaxy S7 which uses carrier ag.

WIFI calling and VoLTE work great though.

Samsung pay works fine but is Hong Kong flavored.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
Interesting, I can't get Samsung pay to work on my Exynos S10+ from Latin America. It always says server error. Did you have to do anything special to get it to work on your Chinese Snapdragon S10?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Ndaoud360:
Anyone using the 9750 or 9730 on Verizon? If so how good is connection etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] floyddroyd:
No, nothing special.

When I first opened Samsung Pay to test it I noticed it had some Hong Kong features (a local public transit payment thing) so I uninstalled it and went to Play to reinstall thinking I would get the US version. But it would only install the HK version. I tried adding a few cards and it added them with no errors. Have been using it with no probs since.

I don't know whether this made a difference or not but when I got the phone I did not factory reset it from recovery to change the language from Chinese, but instead went into the settings menu and changed the language there.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] xRedDroidx:
Any news? I thought we were close to the release :/

I'd never thought root would be so problematic on the Samsung phones, my bad here, this will probably be my last Samsung phone.

I wish LG would come back to the old G2 days, man that phone kicked ass, still my fav one.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] henio1195:
Yeah, its second month without root. Its sick what Samsung did. It will be my last phone from them. I supported John Wu. He is the only chance.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] LEENO:
Root done on g975f but not safe for public release. Just tested in my phone version. No twrp no magisk. Just custom kernel.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] CountVonKrolock:
I'm not sure if it'll be my last phone from them or not, but it certainly won't put them ahead of everyone else going forward in my list. If I'm going to have to start rooting to fix software in the Galaxies as well, then I might just as well get a Huawei or an LG or a Sony or a Nokia, whichever offers the better camera for my taste in that moment.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] mains75:
Yes but I'm afraid it will be for Exynos version only..:(
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jonathanfv:
I bet once he figures out the problem overall, it won't be too much trouble to port it to the Snapdragon version. I think that aside from the hardware, the basic system and hurdles are probably quite the same. As I said earlier, I'd be down to send some money his way to work on the unlocked Snapdragon. Don't have that much money, so I can't just pay him a phone, but I can certainly contribute if others want to contribute as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Ndaoud360:
Isn't root dependent on software, not hardware, so if root works on Exynos, then it should work on Snapdragon if you have the bootloader unlocked version?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nadiawicket:
Device is unlocked and I finally got to move over to T Mobile. Went through HELL however got it done and was well worth it. Speed is like 100 times better ( was getting .01 DL speed on Sprint and now its 20.0 MB!!!! Long story with a different thread about it right here on the XDA if you are interested.

New problem is that I have just read online about Sprint coming like a month later after you moved over to T Mobile and re locking your S7 after its working on T Mobile (https://community.sprint.com/t5/Pro...longer-accepting-TMobile-sim-card/m-p/1023474).. They then allegedly fix the problem but I naturally want to prevent it all together.

Any way to make sure they can't do this to my paid off device?

Should I flash the G930T firmware or the G930P T-Mobile variant? Or maybe I should just stay with the latest Sprint version which is the one that is running right now?

Im on v9 bootloader so Ill have to wait if the best is the G930P T-Mobile variant Firmware. in order to prevent Sprint from relocking my device.. Theres currently a Virgin Mobile, 2 Unknowns and a Sprint variant for the v9 bootloader https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930P/.

Any insight into any of this is highly appreciated. Thanks.

I too ordered mine from AliExpress - with the 27W wall plug bundle

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] lusp00ky:
Question: did you buy the bundle (~30 euros) or just the wireless charger? (~20 euros)

I wonder if I can use the stock 18W charger to power the wireless charger and still get the 20W wireless charging...

Does anyone know if you need a specific power adapter to use the wireless charger?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] nitroax:
How do you want to get 20W on the wireless pad using a 18W socket?? If you use the 18W adapter you will just limit the pad to 18w too.

You must buy the bundle (27w power adapter + 20w pad). You can use the 27W adapter directly using usb cable to get full dash charge, or use it on the 20w wireless pad
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] lusp00ky:
Because there are watts, amperes and volts.

I just read the product description and saw that:

Input: 12 Vdc, 1.35 A or 20 V, 1.35 A for QuickCharge

Given that the charger that comes with Mi 9 (MDY-08-EI) delivers a max of 12V / 1.5A, the answer to my question is no, it won't work - not at max quick charge capacity at least.

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] roofovec:
received 20w wireless charger without adapter from aliexpress yesterday, with 18watt MDY-08-EI it charges around 10w wirelessly
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] doggydog2:
that's why order with adapter from ali for just 10$ extra. Otherwise it's a turd. Try find standalone QC4+ cable charger for this price locally. Worth it.

Your performance is ok, 18W QC2+ chargers were always used to power up 'fast charge' wireless stations in order to produce such output (10W).

in order to product 20W wireless, you need not 20W adapter, but 27W QC4+ adapter as there's lot of loss.

Wireless chargers (i have all types):

*5W: require basic hispeed charger (rated usually 5Vx2A=10W)

*7.5W: iphone stuff, who cares, requires QC2+ charger (18W)

*10W: requires QC2+ charger (18W)

*15W: forgotten generation (although some Huawei customs exist), remember people were waiting for samsungs to upgrade the speed for years but since S7 nothing happened

*20W: upcoming generation, requires QC4+ charger (27W), hope it will be official qualcomm format so we can use the charger for another devices..so far it's not specified in Qi
