Restore nandroid backup from S8+ dual sim to one-sim S8+ - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I lost my G955FD dual sim Galaxy S8+, and I have a nandroid backup of it.
I am going to buy another Galaxy S8+ but not dual sim, so it will not be the same reference.
If the new phone is an exynos based S8 (like the lost one), can I restore my backup into it?
Thank you all.

Galaxy S4 mini GT-i9192 Dual Sim Q's

Hello all!
Just had a few questions regarding the Dual Sim version of the Galaxy S4 Mini. I just ordered one to use as my travel phone using both my local US tmobile sim and a local sim at my destination. I was curious about some of the compatibilities of this phone with some of the other Galaxy S4s.
Particularly:
Is it possible to port over tmobile wifi calling to work on this phone from say the main Galaxy S4 from Tmobile?
Would I be able to install custom roms from the single sim Galaxy S4 mini?
Thanks very much for the help in advance

No you can't use single sim rom on dual.

Hello!
In Dual SIM model, you can define which SIM you want to use to make calls, send messages or whatever... you can define one main SIM or choose SIM when you make the call.
And about custom roms:
There are official CyanogenMod ROM to both single SIM model (GT-I9190 or GT-I9195), but don't have any custom ROM to Dual SIM.
I hope I've helped you.

If i were you and using only one sim most of the time I'll get a 9190 or 9195 and a single cheap small phome while I travel,
I've flash in 9192 cm from 9190 and 9195 both work but didn't recognize the sim i think flashing stock from other variants would be the same

Hi,
I am gonna buy a new dual sim soon and I am very undecided between this one and the HTC one dual sim
I am thinking about these two because they should be ones of the most used dual sim smartphones, giving me more hope to get updates in the future
The GT-i9192 doesnt have LTE (which consumes a lot of battery btw) and NFC, but it does have a removable battery and costs much less
Reading around I got to know this Knox stuff.. since I live in Europe I read the warranty problem shouldnt matter..
However it looks like the Knox may interfeere whenever you want to flash some newer custom android version.. is it true? I mean, if it is just a matter of displaying an alert I dont care but if I cant install a newer rom than I would get pissed off

If I buy a Galaxy S9 today (the T-Mobile version), will I be able to root it?

Hello!
I am considering buying a Galaxy S9 today. I want to keep it on Oreo if possible due to wanting to use GravityBox. However, it is the T-Mobile version of the phone. Does this make a difference? I know with the Google Pixel you cannot unlock the bootloader if it is the Verizon version of the phone. Was just wondering if this is the case here with the T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S9. Thanks so much in advance.
Can't root any american s9's.
Welp Samsung just lost my business
You can root the european ones though, you can find them on ebay easily.
I'm in the US and my Exynos S9 came in the mail today and it already has the Pie update and will be rooted as soon as I get home. I recommend everyone buy the Exynos versions when possible.

SM-G9810 S20 in USA - AT&T and Google Fi

Hello all, I'm coming back to Samsung after many years away... Note 1 days....
I recently bought a S20 5G model G9810 with the SD865. I use it in the US on both Google Fi and AT&T.
I'm wondering what are the tip and tricks and things that I should do with the phone to make it more compatible with the US etc...
Or is it good out the box as is and nothing needs to be done?
Current software version is: SAOMC_SM-G9810_OZS_TGY_QQ_0017
TIA.

You can't root any of the NA versions.
I bought the SM-901E[/DS], it's a snapdragon variant, root able but does not work on CDMA carriers in the US

Question Best Samsung Device to root

I currently have a S22 but cannot root it. I'm in the U.S. so it is a U.S. version. Which Samsung phone is the best in the U.S. that can be rooted? I hate the S22. I had a s9+ before but it broke and I got talked into trading it for the S22 by Samsung. I would have been better just buying another S9+ from eBay or Facebook. Anyway I digress. If I get rid of the S22 which would be the best/easiest Samsung phone to root?
Thanks

some s22 models can be rooted
I believe (per other conversations) that the U.S. version cannot be rooted. If you know of a way please post it because several U.S. users would like to know how.
