I'm super confused. If you want your service provider codes to show VZW, then you need VZW firmware and bloat - not U1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] redneckben:
Sorry lol let me try this again.

I didn't follow the procedure in the op like an idiot. I got my u1 note 10 and never powered it on and flashed the updated SH4 U firmware to the device with the VZW user data. Now I am stuck on XAA/XAA/XAA and that is the problem that I need help with.

---------- Post added at 10:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 PM ----------

I was attempting to flash the u1 firmware to just start over to the point before i messed up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Well then do all of the OP steps, starting at #1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] redneckben:
Being on the SH4 firmware won't cause any problems? I'm pretty sure I tried that last night a couple times and thats were I was getting the mismatched device error but I'll give it a shot.

That's an Odin error - you're not using the right version. The correct version should say "Odin 3B Patched DONATE TO 3B EFFORT" down in the lower left corner. I don't think I've ever seen a version that gives a URL like that
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] redneckben:
Yep not sure how that happened.

But it worked!!!!!!!! do you have a donate button??!?!??!??

Not per se. You can mash the Thanks button though :)

Sorry for being dumb, but I tried to do this today, and nothing changed, I'm still using the wrong firmware.

Is it impossible to flash the firmware if you dont have a simcard for that provider? I am in Canada, and flashed a rogers firmware to my Zoomer wireless phone, but nothing changed. I did not use userdata, is that an issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
This thread is about U firmware and U1 firmware. If you're flashing W firmware, then please post in the appropriate thread.

Trying to get my original unlocked model, that i flashed to tmo fw, back to unlocked FW. I flashed succesfully, but still showing tmo/tmo/xaa in sw info. Any thoughts??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
If it flashed successfully, then you're back on unlocked FW. If the model number and build number report as U1 in the settings, then it's done.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] disturbd1:
I used the attached ATT userdata and corresponding files to change from U1 to U firmware. That worked, and inserting my SIM allows me to use the phone, but I'm not seeing the AT&T call features like WiFi calling etc in the pull down buttons.

Did I miss a step? Would really like to have working VoLTE and WiFi calling.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
If you have the ATT boot logo and all bloatware, then you did it correctly. My threads are full of discussions about getting WiFi calling working on a U1 device. So far, the only thing that has seemed to work is flashing U1 firmware along with the U CSC. I think that discussion was in the Note 10+ thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] disturbd1:
Thanks, I will give this method a try. No AT&T boot logo, no bloatware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Well then you didn't follow the steps in the OP correctly. But it doesn't really matter because I don't think I've ever heard of anyone getting WiFi calling working on a U1 device, just with plain ATT bloat. Usually takes shenanigans like the U1/U mismatch
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] disturbd1:
If I try to flash U1 (now that it has U), I get an error. Also, if I try U1 with U CSC file and the AT&T userdata file...I get "FAIL! SHA256 is invalid"

Odin version is the 3.13.1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You're not using the correct Odin
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] disturbd1:
Which version is the correct version?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
3.13.1 3b Patched
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] disturbd1:
Still a no-go on carrier features, though the flash to U1 with U CSC was successful.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
There is no such thing as XAA USERDATA. And what's the point of going back to all XAA's? Makes no sense

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
The codes have absolutely zero effect whatsoever on how how the phone looks or operates.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] y2jdmbfan:
Thanks, I just realized they will automatically change depending on the SIM you put in anyways. I used Samfirm and downloaded the latest XAA and flashing with patch Odin and regular CSC so I should be good to go now.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] vysus:
Edit
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Bands are determined by firmware, not CSC. If the N970U supports that band, then it will be enabled by flashing U1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
If you're referring to the Service Provider codes, then it's impossible for them not to change, when flashing U1 firmware. If you do it correctly, then at least one of them will change to XAA

Can i carrier unlock a verizon N970U by flashing it to U1?I am outside the USA.There is no way for me to activate the phone on Verizon to comply with their device unlock policy.

My sim does work jnitially for a few moments but then the change carrier notification pops up and it stops working.So i was thinking it might only be a software filter.

Please help guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
No, a SIM unlock can never be performed simply by flashing firmware - it's much more complicated and difficult than that. I can give you a recommendation for a professional solution if you need

So I went from N970U1 to N970U firmware and would like to get back to the U1. I'm on N970USQS2ASJ8, I can't seem to flash just the U1 of the same (only files I've found are without the userdata) and can't seem to change the CSC back to the ATT that I was on. I'm on N970U XAA now, any assistance for me to get back to the U1 2ASJ8 ATT that I was on before I started this whole thing?

**Scratch that....realized I had the wrong Odin, was able to get back to N970U1UES2ASJ8 with ATT/ATT/XAA now, thanks for this thread though it helped. I just needed go through all pages
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarar:
Is there anyway to get the (SJ8) ATT userdata? Or is it possible to downgrade the software from SJ8 to SJ2 on Verizon Note 10?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Well, are you trying to have ATT firmware, or VZW?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarar:
ATT firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I don't have access to it yet. If your phone is still on bootloader 1, you can convert to an earlier version and update from there
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarar:
I tried downgrading but it didn't work. I am not on bootloader 1 I guess. I just ll wait for the SJ8 to become available.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:

I have an AT&T Locked Note 10, has anyone tried to upgrade to U1 with no issues/side effects afterward?

out of curiosity, If I flash this regardless of lock status can I put another simcard and use it? would at&t network notice this and end my contract? U1 probably has free access to hotspot feature, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
If you're referring to using an AT&T SIM, then yes, it should work fine.

AT&T has no reason to terminate your service, just because you changed firmware on the phone.

I have no idea how/if hotspot would work
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] collins521:
U1 will give you hotspot without the feature check that AT&T software has but you'll lose wifi calling and VoLTE. You won't be Sim unlocked with just flashing the firmware. Also AT&T won't terminate service regardless of firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] slayer.1942:
what I meant by contract, was huge discount tht I've got on this phone, I pay $0 for the phone starting the 3rd month.

I don't need those(wifi calling and volte), even that I don't really need, but why I can't put other simcards, isn't this rom, the same rom as Samsung Factory Unlocked phones?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] collins521:
Unless AT&T had any stipulation in there that you had to use the Note the entire time I highly doubt the OS would matter. They would only look at the IMEI I would think if that's the case.

AT&T Sim locks their devices until they are paid off, once it is then you can request the unlock code. They are Sim unlocked like a Samsung device would be directly from them

verizon sm-N970U=OUT OF BOX 2 weeks ago-CURRENTLY OPERATIONAL :)

SamFirm versions 036 and 041

ODIN v3.13.1 PatcheD

ok. i have tried every possiblr way (that i know, or that research has yielded) to flash firmware U1 to this phone. every attempt has resulted in REMAINING on U.

1st- i tried flashing the U1 on OP. i tried flashing 5 files: BL, AP, CP, CSC (non-home AND CSC HOME, different attempts of course), and on a single attempt USERDATA

(acquired from SamFirm 036). this way only resulted in ODIN FAIL (REV CHECK FAIL on phone!)

2nd- SamFirm (manual insert info from MY phone) downloaded SM-N970U_1_20191028105714_i7jblmifo_fac.zip: there was NO error here when flashed thru ODIN,

except this is only U firmware!

3rd- PAID for account at UPDATO (wtf?!?) and cannot download firmware. even with subscription, the file is UNOBTAINABLE. downloading at less than 90kB/s results in

a 10 day download, and simply stalls BEFORE reaching 1%.

4th- attempt to download firmware from SamMobile results in same as #3! subscribed to service, however it says to "click ORDER next to PREFERRED PAYMENT METHOD", although i cannot find that ANYWHERE on the site.

5th-NOW, any time i fire up SamFirm (either version) the info i input NOW results in error (info not correct)...makes no sense.

is what im attempting simply impossible? is this a case of "downgrading bootloader", resulting in my above situation (FAIL)? i am simply wanting to ditch the BLOATWARE and be on U1. there is no hurry for an answer, and ANY help at all will be greatly appreciated. thank you. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] collins521:
What is the baseband version number of your device? Which version have you downloaded?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
No, it's not impossible. You can very easily obtain the correct firmware from SamFirm - if you type in the correct details
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] strykynxxx1:
sorry for late reply...WORK!

baseband version n970usqs2asj8 via PhoneInfo (SAM)

---------- Post added at 03:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 AM ----------

i think i have CORRECT details, they were the ONLY details i could manually input that did NOT cause an "input" error. as far as i can tell, the download i recieved from SamFirm was U firmare, (i DID flash this succesfully thru odin).as after flashing this i am still on U firmware.

as far as SamFFirm is concerened, ALL info is correct, EXCEPT for MAyBE *PHONE INFO*.

PhoneInfo (SAM) does NOT give me this info. another thread suggested using *MODEM INFO* for this field, but again, i cannot find that. the ONLY susccesful SamFirm download came from version 036.

thank you for your time! :)

EDIT-i have tried entering "sm-n97oUI" NOT "sm-n97oU" into SamFirm 041!! ( i was under assumption i was to enter my CURRENT phone model, which resulted in downloading "U" firmware. )

i have an ONGOING download NOW, and will post back IMMEDIATELY after attempting to flash. ( i did NOT realize 041 did NOT require the manual info 036 requires, i guess in my fristration i NEVER tried 041: i had opened and tried 036b ONLY!) after sleep, calming down, and CLEAR HEADED, i may have solved my problem. DOH!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] collins521:
If you are on n970usqs2asj8 then you'll need to find a U1 version that you want to flash that ends in S2xxxx you are on bootloader 2 so you'll need to flash the same bootloader of the U1 ROM or it will fail

You won't be able to downgrade your bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] strykynxxx1:
thank you for quick reply! :)

SamFirm 041 is currently downloading THIS:

N970U1UES2ASK2/N970U1OYM2ASK2/N970U1UES2ASK2/N970U1UES2ASK2

does THIS look correct?

(since bootloaders have been locked, i have been absent from community (work-ugh)and i am WAAY outta practice and knowlege..i am learning all over again!)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] collins521:
That should flash correctly using the 4 or 5 files with the patched Odin. I can't remember off hand which home file wipes and which one doesn't but that should be an easy Google search
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] strykynxxx1:
the download HAS completed!! i am going with the CSC that WIPES data!! not sure IF i need USERDATA..i dont think so, as im NOT switching carriers (if i understand it correctly). i KNOW i can get back to stock...so here goes...

special thanks to you collins521!! UI up n running!! stock 96 apps (thanks VERIZON) to a slim out-of-the-box 69! time to ADB the remaining! happy flashing!! ;):D:highfive:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
If by "Samsung OEM" you're referring to U1 firmware, then no, there wouldn't be any adverse affects. But you can't "flash over it", as going back and forth between U and U1 requires a factory reset
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheGhost1951:
No, according to model in about phone, it is SM-N970U only.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] hleo114312:
Yes, accordingto model n975u and n975u1 are the very same. Just that the u model is for locked to a certain u.s company and the u1 is the u.s samsung version so the u1 is clean of crap from carriers. So yes, they can flash any of those in a u.s galaxy note

I think they need to do a factory reset before. Not sure.

Flashing SM-N975U1

Hello I have the Note10+ unlocked but I a running into an issue when flashing.

Opposed to people who are trying to get rid of bloatware I am actually trying to install some and I will explain why.

I am flashing my Note10+ with " N975U1UES2ASJ8_N975U1OYM2ASJ8_TMB " OR " N975U1UES2ASJ8_N975U1OYM2ASJ8_TMK " .

My carrier is MetroPCS and since I purchased the unlocked version of the Note10+ I am trying to flash it in order to get Video Calling to work since as Samsung and MetroPCS have said it is "Carrier Firmware Feature".

Whenever I flash it though with either of the files mentioned as soon as my device reboots it says "Installing Device Update~" something along those lines but then immediately it will be followed by "Erasing" and once the reboot is complete I am still at my stock firmware.

Can someone please help me fix this issue?

I have been experimenting and there was some sort of break through I had and that was that I decided to flash my Note10+ with " N975USQS2ASJ8_N975UOYN2ASJ8_TMB ". This sort of worked as it changed my model number from SM-N975U1 to SM-N975U and I did have the VoLTE enable/disable option and the Video Calling icon was now displayed although:

1) Wifi Calling did not seem to be fully implemented

2) Whenever a call was placed my signal went from LTE to 3G

3) The video call feature never worked even though VoLTE was enabled and I assume this is because the call was going from LTE to 3G.

If anyone can help me I will be really really thankful.

I have all the files if any are requested.

Can you flash USC unbranded over the T-Mobile firmware. I am trying to correct an issue I am having. The "Auto Date And Time" always defaults to on after reboot. Any thoughts on either subject appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
1. USC is US Cellular, not "unbranded".

2. Highly doubt that reflashing is going to solve the issue, unless you perform a wipe at the same time. Might as well just try the factory reset first to see if it solves your problem
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheGhost1951:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Android 10 is now available for the U1 model via SamFirm and Frija
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheGhost1951:
Ok, flashed the U1 on my T-Mobile N970U phone. 99% compatibility with apps. Csv showed TMB/TMB/TMB. Also it solved my automatic date and time issue. So I know the issue is related to the ported version firmware for T-Mobile. Cell signal strength seemed a little weak, not sure the cause of that. Going to try the Sprint firmware for the N970U and seem what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheGhost1951:
Ok, another issue is signal strength of the cell network. Being on the N970U1 variant the signal was lower and lost connection altogether numerous times. So bad that I went back to stock N970U for TMB. Will pursue after T-Mobile to correct the time and date issue. Signal strength on the TMB firmware is better and more stable. By the way, I do live in a rural area.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackdforme:
Signal strength is simply scaled differently for the icon. Tmobile over emphasizes signal strength because the average user only cares to see bars.

If you look at the rssi for two phones one with tmb the other unlocked, you'd see the same signal in reality and different bars. Tmobile having more in that example.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheGhost1951:
That may be true, but when I was on the XAA U1 firmware, I was constantly getting an alert on the phone about lost signal and searching for networks..... there is a difference between low signal and lost signal with instead of bars It showed the circle with slash indicating no connection....
