No. Simply flashing USERDATA will not give you U firmware. You need to flash all of the other files also
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobyboby:
I must have understood your following instructions wrong then. I thought steps 1,2,3 were already covered in my case?

And if that's not the instructions for switching from n960u1 to n960u firmware. Could you add some?

"""

- the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another carrier's firmware is:

1. Flash full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC

2. Upon boot, insert a SIM of the carrier whose firmware you want

3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it

4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want

"""
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Yes, those are the instructions. And yes, steps 1-3 are already covered.

But you stated that you only had to flash the USERDATA file, which is incorrect. The instructions clearly state that you need to flash the "full U firmware package"
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobyboby:
You instructions say "full u1 firmware"...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
No they don't. You're misreading. I'll copy and paste it here below:

"...flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want"

U, not U1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobyboby:
Am I seeing things? The step 1 in your procedure (which I copied and pasted above) says U1

So I don't have to do steps 1,2,3, just step 4 with full U firmware. I think the confusing part is both full U1 firmware package and full U firmware package are used in the instructions. I thought they were the same??? What's the purpose of the full U1 firmware package?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
The OP states very clearly:

"the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another carrier's firmware is:"

Carrier firmware is U firmware. Step #1 is for those who are running U firmware.

You're already on U1 firmware. So you can skip straight to step #4
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobyboby:
Ok. After reading the op initially, I kinda got the idea that the full carrier/U firmware package is just base/u1 firmware + userdata, and those steps made sense about flashing base first in step 1, then userdata in step 4. Thanks for your clarifications. I still haven't made up my mind yet on the switch, basically factory reset + bloatware for wifi calling.

A minor note, S21 ultra was meant for note 9 in the op.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I don't know why you would think that U firmware is the same as U1. The OP explains very clearly the difference between the two models, and how the firmwares can be flashed between devices at will.

Thanks for the note on the S21. I copied and pasted all the info from my most recent thread on the S21 and forgot to change the model name. That's now been edited
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobyboby:
Since the carrier/u firmware package is just some common base image plus a userdata part for carrier specific customerization. It's not unreasonable to assume that there is not much difference between the u common base and u1 firmware. One could have partitioned the firmware design such that the unlocked model firmware package can also be generated with the carrier common base plus a (much smaller compared to carrier ones) userdata part
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
It would make more sense to do it that way, yes - hahaha :D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Bootloader 7 files have been added - both the USERDATA and, since it looks like other carriers might not get this version, the full firmware package (build UA2)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:

The MSM tool requires special drivers and your phone to be in a special boot mode, something like holding volume up while plugging it in or something.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Blackherted:
Hey all, sorry in advance for the noob questions but I have rooted in a phone in forever...

I'm on May security patch and I think of trying to root because the phone became slow and I hope that maybe a custom ROM can help with ram management... saw a few guides but I'm not sure how updated they are and if they fit my version... I fear of bricking my phone :(

also can you please tell me ( in case you are rooted) which roms are you using/used and if you think they have better performance/other advantages over stock and any more tips, thanks!!
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] C302:
I'd suggest you to use a custom kernel (Like Butterfly kernel) for better ram management and faster experience you won't really need root for that unless you want to tweak and customize kernel settings.

And about custom ROMs, I prefer LOS and Pixel Experience.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Willy1992:
Rooting isn't going to make your phone faster in a significant way, as [MENTION=9409022]C302[/MENTION] said, you could install a custom kernel, but I'm not experiencing any problems with the stock one, you may want to flash a clean installation of android, but if you want to root anyway there are plenty of guides on how to in here, but to simplify things, you need to unlock the bootloader and download a patched_boot.img that corresponds with the May update, that can also be easily found here, after that you reboot into the bootloader and use the comand "fastboot boot patched_boot.img", it will take a while but after it boots you will find the Magisk Manager app, open it and choose Install-->Direct Install even if it says that Magisk is installed, after it finishes, reboot your phone and you should be good to go. I am myself running RR OS so I haven't tried this method but at least in April security update you could install Magisk by flashing the zip file in TWRP (you need to install TWRP via fastboot) with decrypted storage, not sure if it can be done now.

Did you tried to connect phone to your PC with Odin? Just start Odin and connect phone to PC with the cable. Does Odin recognize that phone is connected? If it recognize it, then flash the FW. I once had some abnormal screen and couldn't go to Download Mode but Odin recognized when I connected the phone so I saved it that way.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] vasu1:
Hi, i came from mi A1 to A2, so i am facing problems with installing gcam with the same procedure as i followed on mi a1. But i looks like in MI A2 xiaomi has changed something.

Steps i did:

//for unlocking

1. unable oem unlock in developer options.

2. adb devices

3. adb reboot bootloader

4. fastboot oem unlock

//Again in fastboot we are unlocking critical partitions, and once again it will erase verything from the phone, so be sure to do the backup as needed.

5. fastboot flashing unlock_critical

//for enabling cam api2

1. In fastboot mode.

2. fastboot devices

3. fastboot getvar current-slot

4. fastboot boot twrp.img(official twrp for mi a2 for temp booting twrp)

also in twrp internal sdcard folder shows encrypted type folders why? and can't paste anything in sdcard folder?why?

5. installed magisk.zip from usb otg in twrp

6. fastboot reboot

7.adb shell

8.su

9.setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1

10.setprop persist.vendor.camera.HAL3.enabled 1

11.setprop persist.camera.stats.test 5

12.setprop persist.vendor.camera.stats.test 5

13.exit

14.reboot

15.unistalled magisk completely

everything till here works perfectly,, but when in fastboot i lock bootloader again by typing this command

#fastboot oem lock

also holding power down button while typing command

but still it again asks for factory reset, what i am doing here ? so that it doesn't factory reset again after locking bootloader? In mi A1 this works fine.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Tashfin Shakeer Rhythm:

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Maharram:
Yeah oem unlock or lock no matters you need to do factory reset
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] vasu1:
so that means i can't install gcam with bootloader locked? or after reset camera 2 api remains enable?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Maharram:
I think yeah you can't install and also enabling gcam is modifying your system and u can't install any system updates with gcam enabled. So why u want to relock bootloader?

On a related note, does anyone know if opting out of the Beta will delete any esim profiles?
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] sic0048:
Simply "opting out" of the beta by pressing the button on the web page will not change anything. But as soon as you (download and) install Pie, my guess is that it will erase everything including any esim profiles. When you go from one major release to another - especially a downgrade - the phone is typically going to be wiped completely. It purposefully erases all information to ensure there isn't any conflicts between the two OS versions.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] troile00:
Hello folks. I'm posting here to try to get a few ideas on potentially solving this issue:

3rd party apps that I download that require the "Allow display over other apps" permission, have that permission reset when the phone locks. At which point when I attempt to use the app again, it asks for the permission to be set.

When lock screen is set to PIN when I give the permission, then press the power button to lock. Once I enter my pin and re-enter the app, it immediately asks for the permission again. If i disable "Power button instantly locks" then this doesn't happen...because of course the power button is not locking the phone.

If i remove the lock screen completely. Then the permission is reset as soon as I hit the power button. I'm somewhat at a loss as to how to correct this. Is this a "feature" of Android 9? If so it's extremely irritating. Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you.

I'm using the Oneplus A6013 (6t) with OxygenOS 9.0.11 Build A6013_34_190510 completely stock.

What I have tried:

I have attempted to clear the cache from recovery.

I have tried removing the "Modify system settings" permission from all non-system apps.

I have tried a different launcher. I have tried to disable the finger print scanner.

I have disabled and removed all permissions from tmobile apps such as "com/tmobile.pr.adapt".

I have disabled the "Display over other apps" permission for all other apps.

I have disabled battery optimization for the apps that need the permission.
