I shouldn't need to say this, but no matter the case everyone in this thread needs to be respectful of each other. That includes name calling, putting other people down, being rude, etc. I understand this is very frustrating for people, especially reading ideas from a novice, but we can still be respectful and kind when explaining their idea doesn't work. I appreciate everyone being active in this thread and committing to trying to do what seems impossible right now. Everyone here is immensely appreciated.

Horologist, as for the petition, not signing it is not using your voice. This isn't for customer service reps. The point of the petition was the hopes of it getting enough attention, that the people upstairs that can actually fix this issue will see it. We have 180 signatures and every single one counts, every single share is another possibility of another signature and another share. It adds up. If you could, please reconsider signing it, it doesn't hurt and takes a few seconds, same with sharing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
I agree. But the horologist post was hysterical, don't you agree?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 117micc:
Yes I agree but that isn't an excuse to be rude, and yes at least they are trying and supportive, they pledged $700 so I'm thankful
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Yep very nice of him or her for that pledge.

A better effort is putting in the research so you don't write up a long post about things that definitely won't work.

People didn't start caring about this the day this thread started. So ignoring all the trial and error that came before this point just wastes everyone's time, if the method they suggested had any weight we would have unlocked the bootloader years ago.

Anyone taking the time to research is trying.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] RuggedHunter:
The day after i bought my S4 from ATT they pushed the jellybean update which knoxed everything up.....safestrap...lol. I've been following this fight since DAY ONE. You'd be dumb to care to try and root your carrier note 10. Sell it on swappa. Take the money and buy an international version. Done. Otherwise, root just isn't that important to you or you made an unwise decision and choose to continue wallowing in the repercussions of it.

DUDE nice dm me and I'll see what I can do to help you just lost my job so now i have a bunch of free time also little back story I use to work at a phone store cant disclose what one but they said that we cant unlock the bootloader even if the phone is paid off so to the people that say you can.... there is no way in the u.s they said they dont want people messing with there o.s just a fyi
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
The only issue there is cost. The idea isn't that root or unlockable bootloaders are unattainable. It's just that something seems fundamentally wrong if it needs to come at a premium. I personally have no interest in paying full price plus some for a phone that will be worth half that in 90 days time. Not to mention most people shouldn't pay that much regardless or simply can't afford to. It's all a huge up sale to aid carrier subsidized pricing, which you won't be able to take advantage of importing an F model. We won't even get into warranty support.

Just for clarity for anyone reading these. The bootloaders are locked by region. So someone might interpret "international" as the unlocked varient, which is still bootloader locked in North America.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] RuggedHunter:
You can take your carrier n975u (carrier unlocked) and sell it on swappa right now for $700. Then take that $700 and buy an international n975f (region unlocked). Nearly an even money exchange. No premium. :svetius:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lucky_strike33:
will the international device work on USA carriers???
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Don't understand your last sentence.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
The comment I responded to said something about it being pointless to try to unlock the bootloader on a carrier model. As if the (sim) unlocked are an exception. If they are locked in your region they usually are all bootloader locked.

---------- Post added at 10:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

That only applies to people that paid in full and a lot of people don't pay in full. Does swappa let you sell devices still on lease? That was my point. A lot of users subsidize.

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 PM ----------

Yes. You just lose warranty support and maybe some (not all) lte bands depending on your carrier. 5g probably wouldn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Thanks for the clarification, it almost sounded like you were saying F models won't work in the USA.[emoji1787] But then again English is my 1st language. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] RuggedHunter:
Absolutely, yes you may sell your subsidized device. ?

Go buy any phone you want from ATT for $30 per month. SELL it on Swappa. Take the $700 you got from selling that ATT phone and go buy a mint international n975f for the same price. Continue paying your $30 a month to ATT for the phone that you bought from them (and then sold).

It's legit. Don't take my word for it, ask ATT outright.... there's nothing to hide. That's what most of us in USA do.... I've been doing it for 6 years and several devices.

Edit: International n97f is a GSM network device...so no joy for VZW/SPR users.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I mean I've sold on swappa quite a bit and I always noted their rules said otherwise about devices on plans. I suppose I don't know how they would check but swappa seems to look down on it.

Edit:

I should clarify that I meant the rules of the market site you're using to sell and not the carrier. The carrier only cares as long as they're getting paid so you can buy a phone and launch it into space.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] RuggedHunter:
Huh. I never noticed it. There's no way for swappa to confirm. I guess buyer beware since it's rampant. And if you're buying any carrier device, hopefully your seller isn't an a$$hole and gets your device blacklisted.

When I needed to upgrade my ATT S4, I bought a subsidized Note 4 from ATT with a two year contract. I sold that Note 5 on Swappa brand new, took the money and bought a used/mint international S6+....I guess I've bought my S8+ outright and had it imported from England. This Note 10+ I bought outright too. Checking my swappa history, I guess that's the only time I flipped one.... thought it was more often.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Swappa doesn't allow items that are financed to be sold on their website. They simply run an IMEI check on your phone and will pull the ad.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
if only ppl in here spent as much time actually learning and trying to unlock the bl we'd probably have a real chance lol

im a believer actions speak louder than words.. this scenario is no different.. pledge, sign w.e but that takes a few minutes.. if ppl worked together to break it thatd really show them lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jim262:
The reality is they do not want you to sell devices on payment plans unless they are paid off. Reason if you sell the device and then for whatever reason default on the payments, the carrier will shut down the phone. The person that bought your phone essentially just paid top dollar for a paper weight. Deals like this doesn't reflect well on Swappa.

Congrats everyone on the hard work of reaching over 300 individual signatures on our Samsung bootloader unlock petition!

We could not have made it this far without your commitment, support and motivation. I could not have done any of this without each and every single person that has participated in anyways possible.

Thank you!!!

For reaching the goal we should all share this again on our social media. I contributed $26 to the petition to get it in front of 650 more people! Hopefully that will help.

Thanks again and hopefully we can gain enough signatures to get Samsung attention.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] smartazz220:
So I got some news from a carrier in the us I just called and asked alot of questions they said if you lease the phone and then pay it off they will unlock the bootloader threw a software update I'm not to sure how it works but they understood what I was talking about I'm going to pay my phone off in next month and keep you guys updated and I'm going to see if I can get everything moving with this phone but I'm not to sure how the bootloader would be unlocked but they said it would be and I even said I don't want it carrier unlocked the the guy said that he knows what bootloader unlocked was so wish me luck....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] AndroidUser00110001:
I am sure they meant they will unlock the SIM card and not the bootloader.

Yeah I bought my phone out right, cold hard cash, when it first came out. $1200 and I called Samsung, and they said they do not recommend unlocking the bootloader and they do not support it. Then they started to be rude so I just got off the phone with them.

Whoever you talked to, had no idea what they are talking about. They probably mean sim unlock. Don't get your hopes up
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] unimatrix725:
Had any luck? *Pledge* - $20

I was wondering if you truly had any Luck? I would imagine it's a carrier/network/SIM unlock.

I learnt my lesson with the Note8. I bought it direct Samsung a nightmare. Ended up with a LG v30 & its still great! Unfortunately the LG v50 wasn't available. I was gifted a contracted Verizon Note10 Plus 4 xmas.

No Cross-Flash to Chinese variant. They are unlocked so PRC can "low jack" them. I would gladly give up KNOX. Only thing stopping me trying is a $150 deductible.

I can PLEDGE $20 if R00t is achieved assuming I still have it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
They were completely off the mark. The carrier folks were definitely not talking about the bootloader. They were talking about sim unlocking.

I'm not sure if this will be relevant to this thread but I wanted to get it on here to get some discussion going regarding it.

Looks like the S9 and Note 9 Snapdragon models have an exploit to obtain root.

I wonder if the same exploit can be used on our model.

explouts patched/non existent in s10 and newer devices. keep in mind i have a g975u and a n976v so if it was possible it would have also been released.

Not to mention also that its difficult for most to even flash combo nowadays due to the need for tokens

I have an idea there is more of us then there is them what if we got alot of people to just call them all on the same day and just keep calling and calling until they give us what we want ?

You do notice the drawbacks they list for gaining root? You can only charge the battery to 80%, must be Oreo firmware and not systemless root. It is awesome they got it done but not very useful.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Netconn:
Well, don't hold your breath. Since the S6 the US versions have been boot locked and the only root work around I ever saw for the S7 wasn't very good. It was a service unlock. Ran hot and had glitches. I don't expect anyone will get an actual real bootloader unlock for these US version Note 10's
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
Yeah. At some point you are cutting off your nose to spite your face. At this point for me root would be nice but the trade off isn't gonna be worth it for a lot of people including myself if that's what I have to look forward to. Frankly if I'm going to throw a ton of money into a bounty, I'll take said money and put it towards a phone that easily achieves systemless root.

I have a OnePlus 7 Pro and I rooted it when I first got just to have a totally blck theme. After 2 months I went back to stock. I really have no reason to root anymore.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Gregbmil1:
My first experience with root was with a Galaxy S7 so I was late to the party. I loved having root but yeah now I can't think of a good reason. I do use Termux a lot. Not for anything productive really, I just like messing around with it and it's nice having root with it though.

I would root if I could but I'm not really missing it with my USA Note 10, at least not yet
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jim262:
I first started rooting with the Galaxy S3 and because of all the issues caused by lack of ram and TouchWiz, rooting and third party ROMs were almost mandatory. You could also theme it as you saw fit and make your phone truly unique. However, today we have stock ROMs that do everything and more than those third party ROMs did. The quality of most skins used on stock ROMs has became so much better and the overall quality of third party development kind of stagnated. An example of this would be to look at how much development used to take place and what we see now. The Galaxy Note 4 or the OnePlus 3 pages here on XDA were full of third party development, but if you if you look at development for many of today's phones, there is a lot less development. Virtually everything and reason we used to root, has now found it's way into stock ROMs and with third party development being so minimal, there's little reason for rooting a phone any longer.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] heldc:
I highly disagree. There's less development because manufacturers are being dicks and making it ridiculously difficult or outright impossible to unlock. There's still *tons* of reasons to root, like full system access, actual *removal* of bloatware instead of just disabling it, *full* system backups of *all* data... I could go on.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jim262:
There were dicks then too, but there were many more people willing to tackle the issues. Granted some of those may be tougher now, but there are a lot fewer third party developers these days. Before the OnePlus 3 even hit the market, there were already half a dozen ROMs built for it and there was even a working TWRP, yet for the 7T, while phones like the Redmi K20 Pro, have a working TWRP and several ROMs, there is none. Bottom line, where there's a will, there's a way. The will and the actual number of devs doesn't seem to be as strong.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
If an android phone was caught crippling performance on a phone on purpose I just as soon not give them my money period. Not hope they let me root so I could continue to fund their crappy practices and turn a blind eye because I'm not affected.

But that's just me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
You can't adjust status bar icon colors or brightness without root last time I checked. Pretty good for having a less bright status bar which helps prevent screen burn in of the status bar icons. Aka clock, battery notification icons etc.

I have been using Samsung for so long and I've always been rooting (All Exynos cos of Bootloader ish except Note 4 which was Snapdragon but i still rooted it). Now i wanna get a Snapdragon cos of the GPU but I'm concerned there won't be rooting anymore for me as even the Exynos S10+ requires a special way of restarting the device.

I have a Tilt and use exchange 2007 for syncing email, contacts, task, calendar. I use the tasks feature also in outlook. What I would like to be able to do and it doesn’t seem to work is Flag an email for follow up and then have that move into my tasks folder. If I flag an email from my phone it shows on my desktop under tasks and to-do list, but anything in this to-do list never shows in the tasks on my Tilt. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. If anyone has a suggestion I would greatly appreciate it. I need to find a way to be more organized with my email and following up on projects. Thank you for the help in advance.
[General Topics] tmknight:
I don't believe you to be doing anything wrong. It may have to do with differentiating between a defined task and the follow-up being not really a task, but more of a reminder. FWIW, I can duplicate that behavior on my WM6.1 device.

TMKnight, Thanks for the reply. Since this seems to be the way it works does anyone have any ideas on how I can do what I want. I would like to be able to creats tasks or to-do lists from my emails and even add just regualar to-do's (tasks). Alot of my tasks are associated with emails and I would like to attach them some how to the tasks since they usually have info I need when completing a task.. Thanks for the help. This site is the best for finding answeres to our mobile life.
[General Topics] tmknight:
My tasks sync both ways so maybe you haven't selected tasks to sync in active sync options/settings. As for associating emails with tasks from WM, copy and paste is the easiest but does not retain any linkage which makes that only marginally useful. There may be some other mail app that does this, possibly FlexMail.

Follow-Up Flag Support

Exchange 2007 ActiveSync lets you flag an e-mail message for follow up directly on your mobile device, exactly as if you handled the message in Microsoft Outlook. You can also mark a flagged message as completed. If you are using Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, any items flagged on your mobile device will also appear in the Outlook 2007 To-Do bar.

I can't check, as we have Exchange 2003.

Does this work for somebody with Exchange 2007?

Does this also work in opposite manner (flag in Outlook 2007 and see in Tasks WM61)?
[General Topics] tmknight:
Good point about Exchange 2007 - yes flagging is only working in that version. I can confirm flagging worked both ways.
