For the life of me I cannot remember how to get the Carrier SW version lined up. Meaning:

From CCT/CCT/TMB to CCT/CCT/CCT

Anybody knows?:confused:

I think my current configuration CCT/CCT/TMB is keeping my device from activating all of Xfinity's features like Wi-Fi calling, which fails every time I try to activate it.

I don't even know what that is. Lol

From what I understand the last 3 letters will not change and will stay as where the phone came from originally.

Mine is BTU/BTU/NZC as the phone came from New Zealand. Changed it using Samkey (small fee) but I get the UK updates etc.

Root achieved on Note 9

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
That is great news. My phone is Baseband versi

N960USQS3CSK1.

1.Will it work on it?

2. Will I able to flash stock Android with this root or is it just root without that ability?

I'm kind of confused.

3. What does the "80% battery" part mean?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
From what I understand, you can be on bootloader 1..2..or 3. The method will give you rooted Oreo. The battery will only charge to 80%
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
I might skip out on this honestly. I'm so bored with technology it's not even funny for me to joke about it anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
Lol, I'm not doing it either. My 9 is just fine
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
I'll answer what Butch skipped.[emoji28]

1. Yes.

2. This is just rooted Oreo through Odin.

3. Your battery will literally only charge 80% of its 100% max capacity; regardless of what that number is in terms of mAh. Its technically better for your battery life, both day to day use as well as longevity of the physical battery itself. Charge to 80%, deplete to about 20-30%; rinse and repeat.

Yeah, Android 10 is treating me okay I guess. At least not bad enough for me to care at the moment. I'm at 37% right now after being off hook since about 0300, and its 1717 right now, so....yeah.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Soooo, stock T-Mobile Note 9 on Android 9 should be good to go? (That's what I've taken from it)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
1. Thank you.

2.I don't want Oreo, I like ? stocked without Samsung's garbage. If I can't get stock, I won't even bother. Dam you elliwigy. Lol.....jk

3. I've always been charging my phone until 80% since the day I got it anyway. I'd still drain it to 0 then charge it to 100% about once a month.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
So basically never drain the battery, charge it to 80% or 90%, charge it to 100% every once in a while. You can keep laptop plugged in as long as you set it up in the bios not to charge over 80% or 90%. That's basically what I've been doing beside the draining to 0.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
That is my practice. Charge to 80% try not to let it drop below 20% and I have no problem with battery lasting all day with my usage
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Same here. I always charge when I drop to 30+. My phone still shows 100% capacity. I don't know if Samsung is lying. Do you know of any app that gives the real health of the battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Last time I checked you can use phone info app by Ngyan from the Playstore. Under personal it might give you a wear figure depending on what OS version you're running and device type. Try it , it's free .
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazarus0000:
I just wish everyone offered what I have on the Tab S6 - Samsung will allow you to toggle a setting that will only charge the battery to 80% and that's it. You can keep it plugged in forever & the battery won't charge over 80% capacity. With a battery the size that's in the S6, that's fine for two days use for me unless I'm going Prime Video crazy but that's still a full day + for me. Maybe Sammie will offer it in a future OneUI2 update.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] macgyver40:
I don't understand all this battery talk. I had my note 4 original battery for 3 years before replacing it. Heavy heavy usage. Now with my 9, I charge all night wirelessly most times. I don't do anything special. I would hope the tech in our battery is better then the 4th gen so I don't see a need for special settings.

Now if you have a battery replaced by Samsung does it lose the water resistant rating?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazarus0000:
Not that I'm aware of. About a year after getting my N9, I was sitting at a desk and it fell right off onto a concrete floor. Hit just right and didn't just crack the screen - shattered it! Took it in for the replacement and the battery is integrated into the screen, so with the screen replacement came a battery replacement as well. iFixIt guarantees "good as new" & never mentioned that the phone was no longer water "proof," so I'm assuming it's just as much so as before the drop.

I agree with you about the battery too. I don't really worry about it - I charge wirelessly overnight & haven't seen a decrease in battery life with either the new or the replacement battery. Stays on the wireless charger from about 9 PM until 4 AM & it gives me enough juice to get through the day without (usually) having to recharge @ any point. It's not quite as long lived as my ZeroLemon was on the N4 but still, it's got all I need & then some...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] pizza_pablo:
I am irritated that new Google rules are taking away much of what makes Textra great.

Google now forbids Textra and other apps from having the ability to use different notification icon colors for individual contacts.

And more important, Google Assistant will no longer read SMS aloud if Textra (or another third party app) is the default SMS app.

GA will now only some times read SMS aloud, when Google's Android Messages is the default SMS app.

I don't understand this development, since hands free is supposed to be a good thing.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
They're trying to make their own "brand" so to speak. Since things such as Assistant and other Google specific apps are made BY Google. They aren't provided under the AOSP system. I was confused about that first when Google released the Google Assistant. I thought, "there's already one built in." Every move they are making is telling me to are wanting to have a "Brand."
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] pizza_pablo:
Yes! The applefication of Google.

I reckon we need another OS.

If only One Plus would support CDMA!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
I don't think it's an OS thing or an Applefication thing. AOSP is separate from Google even though it's "technically" made by Google. We just all classify everything as Google since it was the "first.". They just didn't go about it the right way(our perception), because I personally don't think Google anticipated that Android would have taken off the way it did. I think if they had looked ahead further, all of these types of implementations and changes would have happened a lot sooner than later. It just looks a little suspect now because we were so used to Android being the way it was.

Now that I think of it, isn't Android its own company now under Alphabet? I could have sworn that I saw Android being listed as it's own company when Alphabet was announced and they did a roadmap layout on the site of the shufflings that occurred. Trying to find it now brings up nothing. Ugh, I hate that duck duck go vs Google BS that has now caused searching on Google to more trashy.

Speaking of CDMA, that needs to go away! It reminds me of Faxing.?

Edit: yeah there's way too many Specs and Techs in this post. I need to drop in some scholarly sources.??

covering up issues is in the shareholders best intrest.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
Your best 2 are Pixel & OnePlus hands down, none others come close in my opinion
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
It's been about a year since I've had/rooted a Xiaomi device.

Their phones typically have a decent selection of ROMs, but, definitely check out the respective forums ahead of time.

They have phones that ship with MIUI & a few models on the Android One program.

Just gotta find the international models that are compatible with GSM networks.

Best thing about Xiaomi phones is the bang for the buck, you don't need to spend a lot of money to get a decent device, even better if you shop for a deal on Swappa.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Pixel is too expensive and ugly as hell. I might check out an older oneplus.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
I remember purchasing a Huawei honor 6x or whatever and that phone was horrible when it came to cell reception. Everytime I walked into a building, the signal was gone completely.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
I don't think that that 80% battery stuff does much really. I've been doing this since the day I bought the note 9 in spetember of 2018. Looked at my battery health and it was dropped to 3460 mAh.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
I'm starting to feel the same as you, I have been doing the 80% thing as well and these are my results.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] dave678:
I charge to 100% Charging to 80 is just speculative nonsense.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] macgyver40:
I can't see why this 80% things is a thing. No company is going to design a battery that is only good if charged to 80%. I would speculate that charging other ways then recommended is truly damaging and not helpful. All my phones have always been charged 100% and lasted at least 2 years.

So I have never encountered this problem with Odin. I have searched and have only found one answer. I used Odin to flash latest Pie on At&t. I was already on Pie just older version. Flash with Odin passed but it's sitting on installing system update screen and has been for about 20mins. When when I try to boot into recovery it goes right back to installing system update screen. I am able to get back to download and reflashed firmware but still sits on same screen after flash passes in Odin. Any ideas? Only thing I found was wait 30min..Did that and nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
Nevermind[emoji16]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
The batteries aren't designed to be charged a specific way on purpose. It just so happens that only charging the battery to 80% and depleting to about 30% is better for the lifespan of the materials of the battery. Yes the batteries can easily last 2 years, but the difference in charging performance in terms of charge speed, maintaining, and draining, is different between a battery that's been depleted then charged up to 100%(and kept there for a few hours), compared to a battery that hasn't been full depleted, or fully charged for a few hours. There's a couple good reads about it floating around on the web and a couple users posted it here I think.

All in all, it's good practice but I wouldn't go about saying you HAVE to do it. I don't look back at all after I move onto a new phone wondering how the battery life is. If I sell the device to another person, I let them know what my usage patterns and charging habits were with the device though. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] macgyver40:
I just finished reading about charging since we moved to wireless. They talked about the 30-80% thing. It's late but what I took away was don't let it fall below 50% it was a long read for the wireless question I had. Anyway I found it interesting all the things I have read over the years about batteries. I vape and have a small collection of 18650 batteries so a have an amateur idea about batteries but enough to be safe with them. Wish ai was younger all the cool tech I dreamed about is here. The Note9 is a grail device to me lol. Would be sweet if battery replacement by the user was still a thing.
