You can flash either, although you will have better luck on the Sprint getting a HOME_CSC if you want to avoid the Wipe.

Edit - Also for a non-wipe, don't use the USERDATA either

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 PM ----------

Since the AT&T firmware has a CSC but not a HOME_CSC, if you were to use the "regular" CSC, it will wipe your device. In this case you would only use the BL/AP/CP files

I'm in a similar situation. Does him flashing the att U firmware over the U1 firmware now give him the att features or does it just allow him to update firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kangi26:
So if he's on U1 firmware going to a U firmware (or vice versa) he should 100% be wiping the device. In this case, he should be flashing the BL/AP/CP/CSC. This would put him on AT&T stock, it'll give OTA and all of the AT&T features

Anyone who flashed the AT&T firmware received the OTA or do they block them?? Seeing if it's working I flashed not to long ago and still haven't received it yet
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] craig.winters:
I have the same question. Bought unlocked 10+, successfully flashed ASGO firmware (from here) plus ATT userdata, ATT bloat shows up, everything seems fine. But I haven't got an OTA update (to SH4?) from ATT, and when I click software update on the phone, it doesn't seem to actually check the server -- it just says current software up to date.

I think I read that others are getting OTAs from ATT to the SH4 firmware.

Does this mean that an unlocked 10+ that is flashed to ATT won't get OTA updates? Ack.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
OTAs work perfectly fine, as long as the firmware was installed correctly. It doesn't matter whether it was a U or U1 model originally

My experience with the Note 8 for 2.5 years or so:

AT&T will NEVER show the correct model, just "unknown."

WiFi calling and advanced features will work as long as the system is first primed by placing your SIM card in a phone that AT&T recognizes and enabling those features, then putting the SIM in the Note with the AT&T firmware already flashed on it.

OTA updates will NEVER come, you have to update manually with ODIN or update.zip files

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] craig.winters:
Huh. So do we actually have any evidence of an unlocked Note10+ that's been flashed to ATT (so the phone has the "ATT/ATT/XAA" designation in the "Service provider SW ver." field) getting an OTA?

Not on AT&T, but I flashed an unlocked phone with Verizon firmware. My phone is currently VZW/VZW/XAA and successfully received last week's Verizon OTA.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kangi26:
The device will show the correct model (AT&T), I've seen a couple cases where people's devices didn't, but most of those issues were due to dirty flashing. Every single time I flashed mine I allowed it to wipe and it ALWAYS showed the correct model.

Regarding comment #3, MOST people will get OTA if they are on a Stock AT&T firmware. Obviously, you can't if the firmware is not a stock release. There are a couple cases where some people were not able to, but the ones I've worked with were people that flashed U1 and had problems coming back to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
You mean on their website it showed the correct model?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pouelle:
I flashed with the AT&T stock firmware with ODIN and NEVER had the correct model show on AT&T's web site. It always showed "unknown." Never got an OTA when on the stock firmware from AT&T either. Phone showed ATT/ATT/XAA.

I figured that. I guess I'll have to wait until TMobile provides their update so I can flash it and get the splash and features. Then again I think I might just roll back to the update before this new one I just flashed. Thanks

I've got an AT&T N975U, I took the android 10 BSL7 beta back when it came out and am only just now noticing that I'm still on this firmware and missing 2-3 updates. What's going to be the quickest way for me to get to CTCA without wiping and hopefully get my phone back on the OTA path? Appreciate the help, been looking through the thread for a whole now but BSL7 is mentioned about 2 times total and it's getting late and and everyone's responses are starting to blur together.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] i_am_weasel_4:
Ok so I've got SM-N975U and its sprint locked very ending in btb3. Would flashing u1 ending in btb6 still give me a locked phone with u1? Or would it be unlocked ready to root?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] scottusa2008:
The term "unlocked" when it comes to the U1 firmware has nothing to do with sim/network unlock. It also has nothing to do with root access or giving root access. The term "unlocked" is essentially derived from the model and place it came from. In this case the N975U1 is the unlocked model purchased directly from Samsung.

So after flashing the U1 firmware you will still have a phone that is network/sim locked to Sprint running what firmware version you flashed onto the phone.

The firmware will not provide you with (or give you) root access to the phone. At this time no root (or bootloader unlock) method exists for the N975U or N975U1. This has been mentioned on the forum here multiple times, the thread here contains active discussions on the subject if your interested in reading up on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
Nothing to do with root. Nothing to do with sim unlock status.

You'd be locked to Sprint still but running the firmware that ships on unlocked models.

T-Mobile CTC9 version appears on Frija this morning in case anyone wants to flash it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] blacklabel2020:
For Tmobile what's the difference between N975U and N975U1 frimware?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] scottusa2008:
U1 firmware does not have carrier bloat (the apps that the carrier includes) and any custom carrier tweaks specific to the U firmware.

If memory serves correctly about the only loss in this case is video calling from the dialer. Signal strength indication (what the signal will appear to be.. this shouldn't be misconstrued as what the signal strength actually is) will probly also change and may seem better/worse then running U firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kangi26:
You'll want to use the modified Odin to get to it, but only flash the BL/AP/CP files. The CSC WILL wipe.

To be honest though, if you're on a beta I feel it would be a wise move to back up and flash the CSC and allow it to wipe. You just don't know what system level modifications were made from the Beta to stock. It's a bit of a pain, but I've had enough dirty flashes go sideways enough to want that possibility into the mix

You can change to another firmware as long as it's bootloader 3 (N975USQU3)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] todd3835:
It bit is bootloader then no. Samsung devices have a fuse that blows for each bootloader. Once you go to a newer bootloader there is no going back. It's a hardware thing.

I don't think there's any v3 bootloader files besides CTC9, but I could be wrong.

Keep in mind that when you use websites like that your hoping that what they show you is the correct and accurate information. In this case the N975F is most certainly an Exynos chipset (which you did mention in your previous reply it was also...).

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] scottusa2008:
Flashing the carrier branded firmware ensures the best compatibility with the services/features the carrier has. The carrier branded firmware has tweaks/customizations specific to the carrier and are not always included in the U1 firmware.

However AT&T uses a whitelist to allow phones they sell full access to the services/features they have. With a phone that isn't an AT&T branded phone even after flashing the carrier branded U firmware you will not be guaranteed full access to AT&T services. I know VoLTE will not work. I think (don't quote me on it, perhaps someone else can verify) WiFi calling should work with the U firmware from AT&T.

Some people have had luck in temporarily working around the whitelist issue by using another AT&T branded phone to activate the service and provision the phone (and then swapping the sim card over to the non AT&T branded phone). Some people have called AT&T repeatedly and tried to get the IMEI number of the phone they have added to the whitelist (but don't expect this to be easy nor fast. You may need to call in a lot of times until you find a representative who can actually be of help). In all reality your mileage may vary with this kind of thing.
