SM-T805 O2 UK version bootloader, ROM compability - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Could SM-T805 O2 UK version can be flashed by any SM-T805 ROM, does it compatible?
Does SM-T805 O2 UK version has unlocked bootloader? (I only know, that SM-T805 Verizon version has locked bootloader).
I know, that locked LTE for O2 UK network carrier can be unlocked by purchase unlock code, but what's about android firmware flashing?

Find out if a nominal t805 will work on O2 and simply ask O2 if they have a locked bootloader.......I have a t805y and that runs some roms it has recovery and I have triedphonex rom it works fine.......

You should be fine flashing an unbranded t805 rom. O2 do not lock bootloaders.

[Q] Unlock HOX for international carriers

Hi!
Im from Chile, South America and im going to Australia in a couple of days.
I want to unlock my HOX to use it there and in some websites they offer an "unlock code" base on the cellphone imei, carrier company and country, does it really work?
My HOX is a tegra 3, android 4.0.3, hboot 0.9, s-on, locked bootloader, stock ROM, Movistar carrier.
If that code Works and i unlocked my HOX to work on Telstra AU for example, if i want to load a custom ROM it will locked the cellphone again?
thanks in advance!

No if you flash or load a custom rom, your phone will not relock.

S10+ Korean version 975N much cheaper, any thoughts?

Hi guys,
Here is my dilemma: I live in Vietnam and I can get the Korean S10+ 512GB for about $770 (vs. $990 for the international version).
The phone is SKT branded, but I guess there will be a way to flash the unbranded Korea firmware. Can anyone confirm it's possible?
Also, the Korean version can only take 1 SIM but if it is like the previous Galaxy S, the hardware should be there, it's purely a firmware limitation. How hard is it to install the international version firmware (F/DS) on the Korean version? If possible, will I still get OTA? Will I need to unlock the bootloader?
Thanks for your help!

I don't know that you could install the international firmware on the Korean device. I know the Canadian models (W) can flash the US (U/U1) versions. Id just get some confirmation before trying it as to not brick the device.

CSC of imported device

I imported a Note 10+ from Canada (N975W) it was from Rogers, but they sell all their devices unlocked anyway, I'm here in the UK & using a EE sim card, everything works perfect apart from Samsung Pay.
So my question is, am I on the best possible firmware I can be?, In the UK we have the Exynos Note 10+ so it's not possible for me to flash UK firmware right?
Also my CSC is XAC/XAC/XAC/RWC
XAC is unlocked, RWC is Rogers, so is it just displaying that the device was originally on Rogers & is now on unlocked?
Any help / information is appreciated.
So RWC you can't change and it doesn't affect software updates. First two makes sense what updates and where you gonna recieve | Country / Region / Operator. Unlocked or not, it doesn't give you faster updates. XAC is sim free version code for Canada, I believe. And don't flash Exynos firmware on SD.

So in summary XAC is the best firmware I can be on because it's SIM free which means no carrier bloat, RWC is meaningless (just signifies the original firmware I'm guessing?), & I can't get but also don't need, UK firmware?
Yes you are right. And yes you don't need UK firmware.

Hong Kong variant bootloaders are unlocked. Contacted Wandamobile based in Hong Kong a few days back and they claimed the SM-G9860 and SM-G9880 they offer are Hong Kong devices. The CSC on Hong Kong variants is TGY. Based on my research most retailers offering these models are actually selling the Taiwan variants, CSC BRI which is also bootloader unlocked. Some users have flashed TGY firmware on BRi devices with mixed results. I would recommend the Hong Kong variant but use due diligence with the retailers, they may not know or misrepresent what they actually stock. Stay away from the China variant, it not compatible with numerous apps.
I asked wondamobile - and they say galaxy s20& 20+ Hongkong version, bootloader is locked ?
anybody buy a galaxy s20 snapdragon from wondamobile in last time, which Hongkong firmware -and was positiv to unlock bootloader?
Mine is also from Wondamobile and it's unlocked. But it's a korean snapdragon model g988n!
