Umm bud you completely missed the point. YOU said as far as XDA labs is concerned anyone can publish an app, true. I made the point that I hardly believe an app would still be there if it led to malicious intent or a scam.. even in information (further proving your stance if you are following along). Nevermind being referenced in an XDA article. Countering your point that implies xda labs is a no man's land of applications to which there is zero oversight if they are harmful.

Add to that my other point of vouching for it is because you took such an offense to my use of the word. The ARTICLE in question that talks about it dedicates its last paragraphs to talking about the method to unlock that they used. Offers a method (the app) to get to information to get the service done themselves. I'd say thats the very definition of the word "vouch", the user that wrote the article is infact vouching for the method used to unlock their bootloader. Plain and simple english. You added words like "support", not me.

I don't know what your going through man but you're making a lot of effort to be defensive when no one is attacking you.

I made my initial comment to someone seemingly at odds with using the method because money and china. You inserted yourself with some other understanding that doesn't exist bud.

If you go back and read the first comment you responded to, you might realize Im making a point to legitimize the method and draw attention to the silliness of griping about the cost of something that completely optional and voluntary.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] n1rv9@vmani.com:
Can someone please explain me how it's possible and what is different between a supported note 10 vs a unsupported?

Is it something on a hardware level? Is it a bug in certain software versions?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Eudeferrer:
I'm not sure what you mean by "supported" and "unsupported", but this is basically a method to unlock the bootloader of any North American Snapdragon Samsung phones. It's the ONLY way known as of now to unlock the bootloader. So if you want to root your phone and live in US, this is the only way to get it. Other parts of the world use Exynos (instead of Snapdragon chips). Those can be unlocked easily without having to go through this process. It's just a simple click. Hope that answered your question.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
maybe i was a bit defensive but wanted to be clear that xda doesnt "vouch" for it. The person that made the article isnt an employee of xda.

I do feel defensive however mostly because the source that provides the service is essentially my source and am very much involved with said service to say the least. And not you really but ive seen in multiple threads where even mentioning a usa device owner thats unlocked has been responded to immediately with saltiness lol. It does get frustrating sometimes but I personally vouch for it as well as the person who made the article as you stated.

I wish it was some get rich grand plan but its not lol

but yea, i suppose by it still being there and the fact its in a xda feed indicates no ill intentions paired with some of the ppl (including myself) vouch for it hopefully also says something about it being legit.

its simply a grey area to say the least so of course that means a lot of debates and opinions get tossed around but life goes on :laugh: im just glad theres an option on the table.. im enjoying my s20 devixes rooted om android R lol

I can flash combo and have some vulns so yes, I can get it to show on stock on both g975u and n976v as well as can oem unlock in odin but it's still not unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 117micc:
Yeah I'm not very savy when it comes to Samsung. Maybe someone with greater expertise will figure it out and this incentive will move it along.

i been trying since s10 lineup launched lol.. i dont think ppl really care about bounties anymore.. last one i got was s8/s8+ root and didnt even turn out to a fifth of what was pledged..

worth a shot tho i guess
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Slypnslyde:
I think the main reason for Samsung and other Companies lock the bootloader for Carriers is to stop people from rooting so they can't steal unlimited Hotspot data. Anything else like noobie customers messing their phones up asking for replacements is just a drop in the the bucket

---------- Post added at 01:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 PM ----------

But I do agree we paid a lot of money for a phone that shouldn't be bootloader locked. It's our right to determine whether or not we want a secured phone or not. It's not their information and money being compromised so why should they care.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] louforgiveno:
I believe i remember hearing it mainly had to do with SamPay...that in the U.S. they have the ability to be one of the few providers (sampay and google pay) whereas they are late on the scene in Asia and Europe so less of a chance to monopolize those markets.

So they basically are doing it to prevent as many as possible from breaking knox so they will be more likely to use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] heldc:
Exactly! Don't need or want samsung pay, or knox. Hardware isn't really mine if I don't have full access to do whatever I want!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
And you can. Just don't root it should an option appear to..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Slypnslyde:
Yeah but no matter what more people don't use it than people that do. Just the other day some lady seen me using SamPay and was like what happens if you loose your phone I wouldn't do nothing like that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
If you lose your phone they would need your credentials to get into your phone to use Samsung pay.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bober10113:
here, you can have it all!

:cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bober10113:
in an example of buying property such as a house, you go through a realtor so that what is sold dosen't have hidden vices. this is not 100% failsafe but helps alot. so when you do sign , you are made aware of the details of the property and are fully aware of what was purchased and agree with the conditions at hand.

in the case of buying a phone on north americain soil, the user is expected to put their big boy pants on and thinking cap so to do the right thing and buy the correct device. common knowlege states that for a few years now that there is something brewing amongst the carriers where users are locked out of their "freedom" of purchase( aka locked BL). more and more devices are locked(different manufacturers) in accordance of carrier requests. while totaly uncalled for, this is the real problem. the government and or fcc is working hand in hand with the carriers and is allowing this practice to spread. I'd petition against carrier and at the regulation level if its something i believed in. samsung and the likes are producing phone models specifically for north America specifically as per carrier specs, its a work order. you can't ask a manufacturer to not produce a device that was specifically required under contract or to change it. they can't break the contract. what you can do is look at who's responsible for making these millions of unit orders and reselling them and point the finger at them. simply look at the rest of the world, the snapdragon and exynos models are sold everywhere else with unlockable bootloaders. isn't that proof enough that corporate greed and bad government ethics in N. america is why this is happening?

in the meantime, north Americans buying international versions of the aforementioned device get to enjoy their devices fully but yet at a small price of spay not working( and other knox related features). but helluva better scenario than willfully purchasing a carrier owned device (even when eventually payed off..lol)

all in all, policy needs to change and usualy you do that by voting. laws stop companies from doing such things not petitions but capitalism is a virus that has gone out of control and infiltrated government..so in the end, if a buck is to be made, its at our expense whether we like it or not. the only true vote we have is where and how we spend our money. so give it towards something you actually want/use, complaining is just a way to help cope with the sad truth of the negative outcome of a decision or mistake.

( btw regarding the communist remark: china can unlock their BL and achieve root.. )
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Lol China are just communists by name. So basically you said buying a non USA one would be the way to go since the majority of these are bootloader unlockable ? Obviously for those that want that ability. Else, others should stop complaining? Its human nature to complain, even more so from the choices wrong or right that we make....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bober10113:
dosen't the understanding of such things help the individuals make the proper choice or at least give them the proper knowledge to wage war at the right place rather than simply testifying their stance against something? i mean to be unhappy and to demonstrate it is everyone's right(aka complain). but to expect change from this is folly. the energies put into contesting malpractice should be gathered and focused towards the true culrpits using official means. consumer rights should help people but i have a feeling even they sit at the same tables as the culrpits. Money is the currency with which we sign bills and sway the masses. its all that matters nowadays. any big movment has to have big money behind it or have big impacts financially for it to achive greatness.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
It's still worth signing the petition. Its not going to cost you anything.

Who's my friend Michael? Lolz

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bober10113:
but that's the basis of my argument - worth. even if it seemingly costs nothing, the worthiness of an action towards a common goal should be towards actual change and taking action using the best possible means to meet those goals. or else its just an other failed attempt. each "petition" i see poping up since a few years has the same mind set: petition samsung to unlock the BL. to date none of this has yeilded any results.

If i ask a mc donalds employee to stop making cheap low grade burgers because I pay hard earned money, what chances do i have of acually achieving my wishes using that channel?

if i go to the food and drug administration a build a case against MC donalds and prove that they are putting low grade meats and substitutes endangering our lives, maybe laws and or sanctions would be imposed and force a change. regulation would change.

so i believe that the same thing is true with carriers. again the rest if the world does not have this issue. so isint it well worth the effort to knock on the right door?

or do you think samsung would stop filling out orders to carriers to appease north American clients and make a stance against carriers?

i mean if you pay me to jump, ill say how high. especialy if my business is jumping. so i believe in the case where we petitions Samsung to unlock something that is a carrier requirement and was worked through a contract, getting the manufacturer to change dosen't make sense.( i also do believe that the contract forces them to also sell locked BL in unlocked phones. because lets face it, these devices will end up on carrier lines anyways and i bet that's part of the deal. they allow it but want em to be locked just like their's. i wouldint be surprised if down the road, imei blacklisting would occur on devices where the BL is currently unlocked. carriers are probably aiming towards that...)

would you ask foxcon to stop making cheap parts for apple?(lets not forget, apple asks to produce x amount of chips at the lowest possible rate) or would you rather try and change regulation that forces companies to sell better quality products especially when we pay them at a premium?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Ok let me clarify. I've signed it as step 1 and step 2, I won't buy Samsung devices anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bober10113:
now your talking!

but you can still buy samsung through international means. the effect would be just the same because in the ladder examples, you still seem to think this is 100% a sammy issue when again, its more towards a carrier/American malpractice.

:svetius:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
I know it's USA market specific issue, its because American organizations treat security much more highly than the rest of the world. It's been discussed by the legendary scholar XDA member "whatever_happened_to_xda", anyone find that thread? His stay was short-lived here.

Sorry if i missed it, do they have a telegram channel?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] n1rv9@vmani.com:
Thanks for responding, I'm familiar with what you mentioned, I'll rephrase.

In the instructions they need your phone information to verify your phone to see if it's supported. My question is what can be different in the internals or software in a note 10+ n975u1, that can make it might work or not. If it's that model shouldn't they all be supported?

---------- Post added at 10:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Alibaba0101:
Need one of these two phones to replace my lg v40 and have the needed bands:

sm-n975uzkaxaa is the north american unlocked - preferred but more expensive

or the sm-n975uzkaatt north american at&t - cheaper and can be cross flashed to north american unlocked?

Does anyone know if either of these two models are on the list of phones that can be bootloader unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
no.. my source requires payment for each device

theres also various reasons this service is not eligible for any bounty..

1. its not my method technically

2. its device specific so u cant replicate it

3. its not free

4. its not allowed on xda

you get the idea
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
you dont need to provide info to determine if its compatible.. usa model s10 tjrough n20 are unlpckable.. the device model and DID are required to actually unlock the device
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
they are basically the same device except the u1 model is sim/carrier unlocked whereas the u model is locked to att.. u can flash u1 firmware to u devices but can also flash u1 to u devices..

both u and u1 can be bl unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Alibaba0101:
Thx, I assume that includes sm-n975uzkexaa which is the 512gb version of the same phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] drivel2787:
Anyone used this method? I checked it out but was cautious since it's non-xda and not really confirmed other than one guy on here attesting that it works and is valid.

Replied back.... I don't have much information as I just requested pricing info.... I'm hesitant since it's not an "official" xda method. Also too, even if bootloader gets unlocked, there's still not root for the US SM-N975U or TWRP that I'm aware of so what benefit is there really at this point to the unlock? Unless someone knows something I'm not aware of.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
There is root and Twrp. Price $100 for 10+ $125 for 20ultra. There is also a Odin flashable rom for both devices. It is legit tokens are used.

The lack of development is what's keeping me from doing it to my US Note 10+. I have a note 20 ultra but it's the Korean snap dragon but frankly my banking apps and samsung pay are too useful for my day to day use to give that up on my primary device while I'm living in Korea.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] drivel2787:
Yeah same case here. I assume those things stop working if you unlock the bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
I was told that the 10+ can be rooted. But wasn't told how. God forbid i ask a question there..lol. I assume its by patching boot.img with Magisk which is very easy but again not sure if that is correct so don't hold me to that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I know there are ways to hide root and the software trigger that lets the playstore know your device is rooted that prevents apps from working in the states but given Samsung's standings in its own country I wouldn't be surprised if the banking apps here check whether or not the efuse is tripped which cannot be hidden.

But samsung pay definitely wouldn't work and being that I use it for transit, and almost every online purchase from my phone and probably 70% of my in-store purchases, root isn't worth it for me on the 20Ultra.

I can't use samsung pay on my Note 10+ in Korea and I really didn't use it in the states so I would happily sacrifice it.

And your train of thought is actually why I am here.

Had my 10+ less than a month before i stupidly fell for (an obvious but I was sleepy and busy at work) evil twin attack.

Haven't felt safe sense. Best I can actually tell some malwsre abused the external storages lack of sandbox and (kind of but not really) faked super user access... (I'm honestly a bit confounded but finding a file that was a root to all other files and hidden on external storage with the icon and name of and installed but never played game which had grown to 870+my while I simultaneously had an additional work profile appear, something replace the Google vending archive with something great my AV HATED and traffic being sent to some random state at 2gb in less than 3 hours over an imposed Hotspot 2.0 while my phone number had been lost, sim card lock activated and me unknowingly using voip only for at least 2 weeks) samsung is "pretty sure" im safe but admitted su could alter knox partition to stay there hidden if desired

Has this been done yet? I think I might have done it by accident. I was able to flash a couple of different firmware on my SM-N975U a couple of different times. I successfully changed it to an SM-N975U1. Maybe I don't understand but would that let me do it if the bootloader was locked?
