SM-R825U and SM-R835U Changelogs - Samsung Galaxy Watch

Hi,
Does anyone have a good link showing all of the Changelogs for the US Active 2 LTE SM-R825U and SM-R830U ?
I have the Unlocked Model SM-R825U 44mm LTE, currently running 11/1/2019 R825USQU1ASI1.
I found the following:
T-Mobile: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-41223
UK SM-R820K version: https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-R820/DBT/doc.html
Would love to have a current link direct from Samsung, but I can't seem to find anything
Hoping there is an update forthcoming which addresses the Always On Display (AOD) randomly not working (as perhaps indicated in the UK version above).
Thanks

You can create your Link self... IMHO...
US T-Mobile:
https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-R825U/TMB/doc.html
US ATT
https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-R825U/ATT/doc.html
Unsure...
Really SM-R830U
Not SM-R835U
No idea, what ever this means...
Unlocked Model SM-R825U 44mm LTE

US Models Note 10/Note 10+ Crossflash????

Did anyone get the chance to see nomenclatures of US models? I'm mainly concerned about cross flashing, really hope it's gonna be possible this time around, unlike the s10 5g.
I think them days are long gone with the bootloaders been locked down for the US models
We've known the nomenclatures for a long time, ever since before the FCC filings. Standard Note 10 and Note 10+ will behave the same as Note 9 - crossflashing included. I've already posted both U and U1 firmware

10 and 10+, yes. 10+ 5g will only be Verizon as the radio is different and only supported on their network. So you can cross flash any Note 10 as long as it's not the 5g.
I know I am uneducated when it comes to these sorts of things and I apologize for my ignorance but if either of you could fill me in, I would love to know what exactly "crossflashing" is?

Flashing other carrier or unlocked firmware to your device since hardware wise there is no difference.
Example. On the note 9, ATT builds leaked early on quite a bit so if you wanted the latest before it was officially released you could flash it to your device as long as it was the same processor.
Even applied to the Pie beta that released for the unlocked models.

I attempted this on an S6 and could never successfully get the modems/radios to right... or maybe I had the data misconfigured? Who knows... but that is remarkable! If you don't mind me asking one more simple question, does this trip knox? Because I'd love to have the unlocked firmware on my VZW but I'm not sure of any specifics on the warranty. Although, I know if I ever DO have to send it in, I'll just brick it from the inside with wrong firmware.

Nah. It won't trip Knox since the firmware being flashed is signed by Samsung.
You can always flash back to stock as well. Stock in this case being the software it shipped with.

S6s are not cross-flashable. Samsung didn't start that until the S7 and Note 8
it would've been awesome since in the FCC docs shows that N975F (Exynos LTE) and N976B (Exynos EU 5G) have identical hardware!
also Verizon is using the SAME SKU model codes for both LTE and 5G models
i posted the details in reddit earlier (r/galaxynote10 titled "Crossflashing LTE <-> 5G Models?" sorry i can't posts link....10 post count thingy)
worth the shot?

1. N975F and N976B can't have identical hardware. The 5G model has 5G antennas, and the 4G model does not. I can guarantee you that firmware will not be cross-flashable between those 2 models.
2. Verizon is NOT using the same SKU codes for the 4G and the 5G models. The 4G model is N975U and the 5G model is N976V. I can guarantee you that firmware will not be cross-flashable between those 2 models.

I could not possibly be eyerolling any harder right now.
I'm sure that as far as the 4G hardware is concerned, yes, most of it is the same, same location, etc. But the FCC IDs for the 4G and 5G models are NOT the same. I promise you that the 4G models do NOT have a 5G antenna, and you will never be able to flash 5G firmware to a 4G device.

That's what I suspected initially, is that they meant the hardware is identical in the scope of that report, in other words, "as far as LTE is concerned". especially since the 5g chip is external to the SoC.
About verizon, to be clear, am not mindlessly hoping for a "free 5g", as clearly its not the case in hardware; but how would you explain Verizon using SM-N976VZKAVZW for the LTE SKU and SM-N976VZWAVZW for the 5G sku? is it simply a typo in samsungs' support website?

Yup. See all the other SKUs for the 4G N10+ on that page? They're all N975U

Flashing note 10+ 5g
Hello guys, I have a chance to buy a cheap sm-n976v with bad imei. Phone is locked by Verzion. I'm living in UK and I wonder if I flash the phone with sm-n976b firmware can I get it unlocked and fully working? Sammobile said that should be exactly same model. What is a difference between V and B firmwares? Or is better to pay for unlocking the phone instead flashing it? Can I flash it with European version without broke it?

You cannot flash any other firmware to that model - and even if you could, solely flashing firmware would not SIM unlock it. I can give you a recommendation for a 3rd party unlocking source if needed
Probably that will be better in this case. Thanks

N9750/DS (dual Sim) exynos chip, flash tmo csc?

I'm in a market for dual Sim note 10 plus from overseas. Possible to flash that phone to use tmobile csc (enable volte, wifi calling, etc) without unlocking bootloader or trigger Knox?
As far as I know, the 9750 is snapdragon variant, not exynos

Not without root.
If your goal is VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling on T-Mobile, then there is no need to flash the CSC because T-Mobile has opened up their network for unlocked device. I am getting those functionalities on my dual sim S8+ and also Note 10+ without flashing anything.

So basically call tmobile and ask them to add the imei number into their system? What about Samsung Pay? Will it work without csc?

Actually, both of my phone works without calling in. I think they opened it up sometime last month. Samsung Pay is going to be dependent on your firmware. I am using Australian firmware on S8+ and Taiwan firmware on my Note 10+ which allows me to use Samaung Pay in US (without the rewards program). If you root and flash CSC, Samaung Pay is gone forever due to tripping Knox.

So I'm looking into the same, want dual SIM on T-Mobile service but with Samsung pay and like the us shop Samsung app.
From your last response seems like pay will work but no other Samsung apps like for cashback and award

hi,
how is your experience in term of data connection with Note 10+ exynos on T-Mobile network ? when i check details specification of Note 10+ exynos (N975f) on sammobile, it is missing a lot some of T-Mobile's LTE radio frequencies, https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-note-10-plus/specs/SM-N975F/ . even way less than Note 8 exynos LTE bands .
is information on sammobile site incorrect or am i looking at wrong place ?
thank you !

I don't know if the F variant has fewer bands than the N variant but my N is only missing I think band 66 for Tmobile.
Also I'm not sure about wifi calling since that is not something locked down in their end anyway. The device needs to have software and CSC settings to enable it, both of which are absent on at least the N variant and historically F variant as well since neither device was meant for the USA market.
VoLTE works for me, but no wifi calling since both pieces are missing.

I do not have the Exynos Note 10+, I have the Snapdragon Note 10+ but it is also missing similar T-Mobile bands (66,71). You can check the LTE bands on the Samsung UK website and see that the phone covers majority of the T-Mobile bands. Due to the missing bands and lack of proper carrier aggregation support, you might experience slower speed and/or poor reception in rural area. But general usage is not reallg affected unless you are downloading a large file or constantly streaming in 4K.

thank you for your confirmation. i feel upgrading to N975f on t-mobile network will like be in a situation you pay more for less capable device. but it will depends on where you are going to use it most.
OOT, i am wondering why samsuck doesn't make one device with unlockable BL using exynos/SD to rule most (if not all) LTE frequencies, i.e like newer iphone A2104, to capture more customers if there is no technical boundaries

on my Note8 n950fd/s, wifi calling & HD calling (VoLTE) work fine after CSC mod using tekhd CSC DETONATOR INT, tested on t-mobile and their relevant MVNOs (Metro, Simple). so it is just a matter of CSC configuration, isn't it ?

I am guessing if Samsung can have their way, they would push their Exynos chipset everywhere but due to carrier restrictions they end up having Qualcomm in the US and China. I just wish they did all Qualcomm phones like Sony and have carrier aggregation tables from all of the regions available. I believe this is also a problem with iPhone as well but its less relevant for US users - iPhone that can do band 71 does not cover band 28, and only the HK version of the iPhone have physical dual sim.
The good news is that T-Mobile just recently open up their VoLTE, VoWifi to unlocked international so there is no need to jump through hoops (root and flashing CSC) to get those services. Just hoping AT&T would follow before they shutdown their 3G network.

Not just CSC config. If you look at his pack (his is what got me started on the N variant patch I made for the Note 8) there are a few Tmobile system apps that are taken from a US Tmobile rom. The only difference between the F and N in that sense (and the reason his zip wouldn't work on N devices) was that the F had a couple general vowifi files that were absent on the N, and for some reason the N's included digital TV system interfered with the VPN connection that Tmobile wifi calling creates. My N patch basically took the CSC files, the same Tmobile files as TeKHD's patch and those additional framework binaries which were already present in F firmware and deleted the Korean TV thing to stop it from blocking the wifi calling connection.

The reason they don't bring it here is that their exynos modem doesn't support CDMA (Verizon and sprint), whereas Qualcomm's do. Most of the world runs on GSM but since we've moved on to LTE and 5G hopefully this will no longer be an issue in the future.
Also, Tmobile didn't ever have those locked. My Note 8 got VoLTE stock, just no wifi calling for the above mentioned reason. Also for that reason you still need the Tmobile CSC patches to add those missing software pieces even on Pie.

wow... thank you for the education.
I noticed that the CSC mod is for the note 9, Can anyone please direct me to a tutorial on how to set the scs for t-mobile on my note 10+, sm-n975f/ds?
This is the first I was able to find anything about the CSC mod using tekhd CSC DETONATOR INT. Thanks for mentioning it here!
On the Note 10 + (SM-N9750/DS) VOLTE and WiFi Calling work on the stock CSC (BRI or TGY).
Ok thanks for letting me know bro!
Sorry But I just looked through the CSC list and did not see anything listed that contains the phrase (BRI OR TGY)
Sorry I am such and noob and probably do not know what your referring to, ok
I noticed that a few the oem csc have (t-mobile) none are English would anyone of these still work? I am assuming yes, especially because before I put the Brazilian csc I remember glancing at the current firmware that was on the phone and it was not t-mobile, I don't remember exactly I think it was UK Vodafone and it still worked until I got to Brazil I suppose it started to malfunction because I did not have a Brazilian Sim card to use lol

Which variant...

Any reason to get an Exynos version over Snap Dragon?
I am mainly hesitating between 2 Snapdragon variants... N9750 from Hong Kong or the global N975F. Both dual sim.
Anyone know of a reason to go with one va the other? For one, the 9750 seems to have only 2 CSCs. Slower roll-out of patches maybe?
Exynos If you plan to root and mod the phone. There's always more development for Exynos phones.
Thanks. I need to keep it stock for mobile payment and other apps that won’t run if rooted. Any feature related reasons or availability of anything else outside of customization or development?
I seem to be missing the advantage of the TGY or BRI variants.
Thanks,

The only reason I went with the 9750 was that supposedly Snapdragon variants have better performance and battery life, however, unlike the G9650 (analogous variant for the S9+), the N9750 actually lost a couple frequency bands compared to the N975F, rendering the former useless on carriers that utilize 3G AWS.
The 975F would be, I would expect, the superior choice if you love tinkering with ROM variants and especially if you plan on signing up for the next OS beta, but don't happen to live in the US, India or Germany (for example)
Last but not least, some users I have exchanged information with on XDA are more or less convinced that the SD variants have much better RF.
Ah, thanks. Slightly better RF is a common comment I heard so far. I was hoping to hear a real world comment on the newer Exynos though. Compared to the S10, the note is said to have access to a newer Exynos SoC.
I don’t plan on using nothing but stick firmware. Which CSC is the question as I travel a lot and use 3 sims from different csc.
With this in mind, are you happy you got the 9750 vs the 975F? Should I care at this point or both are really so similar? I am not looking for any Hong Kong Specific features. And when I roam there I don’t even use a local sim.
Thanks,

I'm happy in that my device is definitely stable and fast, while I have admittedly never held a N975F, however.
My only gripe is that the 9750 is among the last Note 10 4G models to get updates. That said, it's not like Samsung is holding out on 9750 users (without reason) as the update version eventually released does have a newer version and build than the others that preceded it.

I'm running the only multi CSC firmware available for the 9750, which is for BRI and TGY. BRI is the default, but I have used Samkey to switch the CSC to TGY.

I'm happy in that my device is definitely stable and fast, while I have admittedly never held a N975F, however.
My only gripe is that the 9750 is among the last Note 10 4G models to get updates. That said, it's not like Samsung is holding out on 9750 users (without reason) as the update version eventually released does have a newer version and build than the others that preceded it.

Thanks for this. I was just reading in another thread where a user got the Star Wars firmware supposedly for the 9750 variant. Have you tried it? I wonder if it's still limited to BRI/TGY. You have not tried it by any chance?

One of the main SIM I use with the phone is Telcel. I rotate between 3/4 sims with 2 at a time obviously. You wouldn't have tried AT&T or Telcel (MX for both) in that model would you by any chance? If so, which ROM and did VoLTE and Wifi calling work?

Sorry, I have not heard of it (for the 9750) nor tried it.

Is Cross Flashing Possible?

Hello everyone!
I'm not too familiar with Samsung devices, I believe my last one was a Galaxy S4 ...
Anyhoo, I ordered a Note 10+ SM-N975W which is the Canadian variant with a Snapdragon 855 after reading it is superior to the Exynos version, however I'm European often travelling between the UK, Spain etc.
To get to my question
Is there any firmware I can flash on to my device for example N975W to N975F or even N975U1 which is US unlocked
I realise the chances of flashing N975F are slim as that device has the Exynos, but any help is greatly appreciated!
My carrier is EE not sure if that matters
You can only flash firmwares for snapdragon, NEVER firms for exynos

Thank you for your reply!, I suspected this was the case.
With that being said!
Is there a firmware you'd recommend between N975U1 or N9750?
Both are Snapdragon variants the difference being that one is US Unlocked the other is China/Brazil
The only differences I imagine there is, is the timing of OTA updates?
I own an exynos model, what I know for sure is that the differences in snap firms are mainly about the bands supported, you must dig into this

The N9750 is supposed to be for the Snapdragon Dual Sim model.
If you need to flash a different firmware, I'd recommend you to go for the U1.
My old S8+ was originally W and I flashed the U1 firmware for "faster OTA's" but I always ended flashing newer version on my own.

Sorry just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly..
Flashing N975U1 will replace the bands?

Hello, thank you so much for your input, I will go with U1!
Am i correct in thinking the only things I'll be missing out on (as I'm in Europe)
is
VoLTE, WiFi Calling & Samsung Pay?
Those 3 services are in some cases carrier dependant, some carriers only offer some services to devices distributed by them, specially volte and wifi calling, that is, they check the imei for that purpose

Wifi and VoLTE may or may not work. Samsung Pay is not carrier specific though. It should work fine.

For what it's worth, I too have the N975W.
I just received it yesterday, but I did flash the Star Wars firmware from the N975U1 (generic US) and it had zero issues. As I understand, the N975W and N975U1 have the same hardware, and is ok to crossflash.
So I'm fairly new to the cross flashing process but highly intrigued by it and what kind of doors that could open up.. My question is when it comes to cross flashing, what version of Odin would be ideal in order to make sure the process is successful??
