Hi,
I have an AT&T Note 4 (SM-N910A). I would like to upload non-AT&T Stock Rom. I found non AT&T stock rom for SM-N910F (which has the same Snapdragon 805 processor).
I know that SM-N910A has a locked bootloader. but I have seen posts saying that it is possible to upload stock rom even in this case. here is a sample post, although I don't trust the source.
I have seen other posts saying that this is not possible, but they are quite old.
Question:
Does anyone know if uploading a stock, non-ATT rom is possible?
If it is possible, would ODIN get the job done?
Finally - would the SM-N910C do for the SM-N910A? What am I looking for in order to guarantee a match?
Current ROM
bootloader / pda / baseband versions N910AUCU2COC5

You can only Odin firmware for the n910a
You said it yourself. We have a locked bootloader, which means that only stock firmware meant for our specific phone model will flash.

Firmware:
Starting with Bootloader v2 firmware, the S10+ no longer requires specific firmware for each carrier. You can flash any U build, and the phone will load up appropriate carrier "bloat" based on the SIM card inserted. You can still flash U1 firmware in order to have no carrier bloat.

*NOTE* This firmware is free of all carrier bloat, but will also cause you to lose some features, depending on your carrier.
TMO - Advanced Messaging and Video Calling
SPR - Unknown
ATT - VoLTE, WiFi Calling, Advanced Messaging
VZW - Unknown - used to be WiFi Calling, but it has been reported to work on the S10+
Downloads Moved to Post #2The Samsung Galaxy S10 series of devices with Snapdragon chipsets are universally compatible with each other's firmware, and can be swapped between Carrier-branded and US unbranded. This thread is for the S10+ and you will find firmware links in the next post.
Before downloading, please read some important notes:
You must use a modified version of Odin to flash these firmwares
You can update to a newer build of the same carrier firmware and keep your data intact if you use the CSC HOME
You must be SIM unlocked if you are trying to use a SIM from a different carrier than you purchased the device from
Flashing the U1 Unbranded firmware will remove carrier bloat, but it will NOT affect SIM lock status
In order to convert between U and U1 firmware, you MUST factory reset and leave your SIM card in the device after flashing in order for the conversion to be successful
VZW Mirror link?
When can we expect a VZW mirror link?

It wasn't available as of my posting the other day. I'm away for the weekend, but can check tomorrow night to see if it's available to grab.

Sorry I'm a little new to Samsung firmware flashing. But I have an unlocked Snapdragon S10+ that I'm using on T-Mobile would I be able to flash this update and then been on the T-Mobile variant firmware or will I need to flash something different as this is a small update?
Looking to get all the benefits I can from T-Mobile firmware like advanced messaging that I heard the T-Mobile variants get.
Thank you!

You have an S10+ directly from Samsung? Yes, you can flash the T-Mobile firmware and will essentially have a TMO device. You will need to wipe your data in order to convert properly from U1 to U firmware.
Does the T-Mobile Firmware include all of the T-Mobile bloatware apps?

Any non-U1 firmware will have the carrier bloat. Your SIM card determines what gets installed.
Added the U1 Unbranded firmware in Post #1
Can you flash the U1 unbranded firmware on a Verizon phone or do you need a U1 firmware for Verizon to remove all the carrier bloatware and restrictions?

U1 can be flashed on all Snapdragon S10+ single SIM models. You will have to factory reset after flashing in order to convert properly.

I have a verizon SM-G975U. It's unlocked and I use a TMobile sim. Can I simply flash the TMB firmware using odin on the verizon s10+ and it will be branded as Tmobile?
I contacted Samsung and they have not released the BYOD update yet like they have with my S9+, where the firmware automatically updates with whatever sim card is in the phone.

Not sure what BYOD update you're referring to. You can flash the U1 firmware and have a phone working on T-Mobile, but without Advanced Messaging and Video Calling from the dialer. Or you can flash the TMO firmware and have all features supported, including the light bloatware included.

Thanks.
When I change sim cards from one carrier to another carrier, it automatically changes the firmware. It does it on my S9+. Example: I have a verizon sim in my S9+, everything is all verizon, bloatware, startup screen etc. If I put my Tmobile sim in, it changes everything to tmobile, splash screen and all tmobile bloatware and verizon is removed. After looking to see why it does this, it's an update from Samsung that they put out called BYOD (bring your own device.) Only available for s8 and s9 models right now.

I thought it would have done it on the S10+ but it's not available yet.

Hmm. I'd be surprised if the S10 series don't already support it, and the rep you spoke to was confused. The S8 and Note 9 did it fresh out of the box, verified personally by me when I switched both of my TMO devices to VZW for updates not yet available to TMO.

Nope, it doesn't support it yet. I wish it did but I guess I'll just flash the firmware to TMobile's.

The note 9 support on pie maybe if you flash the U1 firmware?

I have a question if you don't mind. I just flashed my S10 Plus unlocked U1 version to the AT&T variant of the U version firmware. Right now I am on G975USQU1ASAT. I believe the G975UQU1ASBA is the newest update. I don't see the update on my phone via OTA though. Is it just slower for AT&T or I will need to flash it manually using Odin for all updates going forward?

Do you have VoLTE and WiFi Calling available? If you do not, then AT&T isn't recognizing your IMEI and won't push the OTAs to you.

Yes I can use VoLTE and WiFi calling after flash from U1 to U. This is actually the main reason why I did the flash. I am a bit concerned about no OTA update yet though.
Hello. I have a Note10+ SM-N975F International version. Last December, I have updated my phone to the first Android 10 build manually after going through all the betas, which I too, updated manually. Since then, I have been unable to get OTA updates, and I am stuck on build BSL7. My CSC settings correspond to my country:
SAOMC_SM-N975F_OXM_ILO_QQ_0005
RF8M802E8EW
ILO/ILO/ILO
Can I solve this by simply flashing the newest build? Or will the problem just persist? Thanks.
You may be able to flash the update that came by using sam firm to search your csc, but I generally use the AUT CSC however I'm in the USA... Not sure if the aut CSC will work for you

Anybro out there know if Canadian S20+ SM-G986W can flash SM-G986U ? The reason I ask because Canadian firmware take LONGGGG time to update. And I saw Android 11 firmware on the Tmobile. Please let me know. Thank you very much for your time, and much appreciated.
I flashed my SM-G981W with the G981U1 firmware (CSC XAA) back in April 2020 and now I'm running G981U from t-mobile (CSC TMB with OneUI 3.0) with no issues so far outside of samsung pay not accepting my CC due to it wanting a zip code and not a postal code. I use google pay anyway so it wasn't a deal breaker for me.

Thank you for your reply. WHILE reading your response, I am on one UI 3.0 T-Mobile too. It worked on 986W Canadian version.

Out of curiosity did you have to change your devived CSC to install the the T-Mobile firmware or just downloaded and install via SD through recovery?

Nope. I used Odin to flash the image I downloaded using Frija and then used the HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN_xxx file as the csc.
I ordered a Korean S20 ultra (988N), but live in the US. Has anyone flashed the US firmware on a bootloader unlocked SD variant of the phone (ie 988U1 firmware on a 988N or 9880)? If so, did you have to change the CSC to XAA before or after you flashed the firmware?

I don't have an answer to your question but will the non-US phone work in the US like on Verizon system as is?
It should work fine on LTE. The main Verizon bands are 2, 4, 5, 13, all of which are supported in all s20 variants. I don't think you'll get 5g on any US carriers, so if that's important, better to pick up a US spec phone, and pay to unlock the bootloader.

I tested the phone (G988N) on both Verizon on TMobile. I was able to get 5G on both carriers. So I can confirm that all features (except possibly WiFi calling on Tmobile), work.
So using the KOO firmware in the US works perfectly fine. No reason to try to flash XAA.

I wish you had tried lol I'm tempted to flash the U1 firmware on my Korean S22 Ultra but I'm looking for more info before going for it. Still no luck.
