Yes, along as the region you change the CSC too, supports call recording, should work like normal

Is there any downsides to this besides losing some Samsung apps?
You shouldn't loose anything as far as I'm aware, it's baked into the firmware, but the CSC either allows it or doesn't based on local laws, so you shouldnt loose any apps, unless for whatever reason they don't have them in those regions. Just research which firmware or region has the software that closest matches your needs

This is the Verizon Note 10+ 5G, for those who may not know.
Once the device is released, this will be available via SamFirm and other sources, so I'm really only providing this now as early access, for anyone that wants to dig in and play around and see what they can find, etc.
I compress extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
Happy flashing!

Are you aware if there any universal (unlocked) firmwares available for this model, or do you have any suggestions for adding Samsung Cloud that Verizon intentionally removed??

There will never be a U1 model, so no U1 firmwares. No idea on Samsung Cloud - maybe start a thread about it?

you can install cloud from the app store..
the device has two csc.. GCF and VZW.. however once unlocked any carrier should work minus the 5G stuff which im sure is vzw onky on this model.. i have used with sprint and tmo sims and they work..
besides the vzw bloat its just as good..

Maybe you can answer my question: mine is a SM-976N korean model, everything works fine as it's factory unlocked even if KT branded, do you think the 5G stuffs may be available only with a KT SIM?

i have no idea... im in usa and have the verizon model.. although they have 5g aroubd ne i havent gone out to fibd/try it yet even on my own device lol..
i want to say like anything else if the device and your carrier support the same 5g bands then i would assume it should work..
here in usa tho each carrier has their own bands and the devices only support the specific carriers 5g bands so far

What's the point/purpose of changing it?
Without being explicit, it allows you to run an app service with a GUDP plan that would otherwise be blocked Only concern is if it will prevent 5G access.. no change to APN and LTE seems to work fine but wasn't sure...

The app store does NOT even offer Samsung Cloud for Verizon devices. Furthermore, even after downloading Samsung Cloud from alternate sources, for whatever reason, Verizon has somehow managed to block the installation of it...
If you have a workaround, I'm all ears...

It must require some underlying app or framework in order to be installed and run

I'm pretty sure you get that message because it is already installed but blacklisted in the vzw csc. Of course you'd need root to change that though.
***This is why i'm strongly considering getting the chinese snapdragon vs.... (im on tmobile).....but they play around with the csc and block stuff too that i have unlocked on my note 8 thanks to root.

verizon does block it to an extent but if u want cloud its very easy to allow it.. just change the csc to GCF.. if u dont want it to stay on gcf then u could experiment with it.. i believe once its installed then switchin back to vzw might b ok?
if u dunno how to change csc u can use *#272*IMEI#
i do not recommend u use the DEV/QA function since u mighthave a hard time changing it back from gcf (DEV/QA makes it to wherecscdoesntchange when a sim card is inserted andstays whatever itsset to) since gcf doesnt have a way to get to the csc menu

For the dialer code, do I actually have to input my IMEI number??
...because simply typing 'IMEI' in the T9 dialer does not do anything.
Kinda confused on this one. Would you mind clarifying?? Thanks in advance...
I switched to the N9750 from a Galaxy S9+ (SM-G9650) from the same "family" (Hong Kong & Snapdragon) because I was so pleased with many of the firmware customizations present in the S9+, including the Hiya integration in the stock Dialer app. (You know it's there if there is a "Places" tab and if a contact search also searches businesses in your area.)
However, my N9750 sadly did not come with this feature, but I did notice that there is a second region option for this model (namely my beloved Hong Kong!)
Can anyone running the Hong Kong firmware comment on whether Hiya integration is there or not?
TIA!

Thank you. I checked my apps list and the Hiya service is not there, which is strange. I'm wondering if it is only installed for certain locales when the phone is initially set up?
Well, I've tried resetting my device to both TGY and BRI firmware (though they both show up the same in "About Phone") and I tried different locales in each, but still no sign of Hiya. I'll just hope that it shows up in a later update. It is even advertised by Samsung as "Smart Call" on their global and Canadian websites.

I should have used the correct terminology. I did a full reset and then flashed the TGY firmware. The two firmware files (BRI and TGY) were exactly the same size, so it was of little surprise that there was no difference as far as Hiya was concerned.
However, even though Hiya was not in my list of apps, when I searched my entire Settings for it, it did show up in my system apps, as did Smart Call. So both services are there, but they just don't seem to be implemented with the current phone app bundled with these firmware releases.
One thing to note about the TGY firmware (before anyone else takes the plunge) was that my signal bars dropped from 4-5 to just 1. I let the phone be for a good 10 minutes and this did not change. When I flashed back to BRI, the bars started off at 1, but then quickly reverted to 3 then 4. It could have been serendipity, but I can't say for sure...

I see, based on my experience with multi CSC firmware, BRI and TGY firmware are the same with multiple CSC included and it will only switch CSC when the correct sim is inserted. So no matter how many times you flash the firmware, it will stay the same CSC unless you are able to find workarounds.
To answer your question on Hiya, I believe it's also CSC dependent. The services are in the firmware (I have just searched), but it will only be active when the correct CSC is activated. I have been trying to find ways to switch to the TGY CSC to get Places and Smart Octopus but there isn't any working method yet. The Smart Call is advertised as a regional feature (you can find that statement the fine print) and I believe Hiya isn't available in Taiwan. It is available in HK so if the phone has TGY CSC it will might activate Smart Call and Places (since it is advertised in the HK Samsung page)

I even tried the Samkey method and I got a "This model is NOT supported for CSC Change" error, even though the Samkey website mentioned the SM-N9750 as a supported model. I emailed the dev for clarification.

I went through Samkey as well and got the same results and also email the dev. Looks like the only way is to switch to TGY right now is to get a provisioned hk sim.

My N9750 (I'm using it on T-Mobile in the US) has Hiya support. Volte and WiFi calling are also working. I'm on the Taiwan (BRI) CSC.

Not to sound like I'm doubting you, but do you have the "Places" tab in your Phone app? Can you share a screenshot? Lastly, did you activate with the same t-mobile USA SIM card?

ops I just got mine and was surprised HK version didn't had call recording! so, they removed it completely then!
Anyone has any solution for call recording with acceptable quality?
I think they removed network speed in status bar also completely!
Mostly for built in call recording.
I had a S22/U1, I like the formfactor but it has no recording, so then I got a S22/E (snapdragon, india) version which works in the USA on verizon but sometimes signal just drops, and sometimes texts don't go through among other issues (recording is flawless).
I was looking into it and apparently the 'best' solution for S22 with recording (that works in USA) is to somehow get a rooted S22/U1 (USA version) and with root access you can manually edit the CSC file to turn on recording. But the challenge is getting a rooted U1, which can only be done with a paid service like sam PWND (as far as I know) and they are on pause now anyways....
So then I was thinking if all it takes is editing CSC then can I instead somehow load some files to my S22/E and make it have access to /U1 features (so calls don't drop etc.), and then take advantage of the root (which /E has with unlocked bootloader) to subsequently edit the CSC and turn recording back on?
Does anyone have any ideas or thoughts? I read that the modem is the same so in principle this can work?
From different sources, I have learned that by changing the CSC code I can enable the call recording feature. But on this website (https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s20-fe/firmware/#SM-G7810), I can only see Hong Kong and Chinese Rom for my model number. So, I don't know how can I achieve the call recording feature on my phone.
Can anyone help, please?
try this app called Cube ACR.
I use it on my S20 Ultra and practically every other phone I've had too and it works on every make/model for me. I'm in the US so keep that in mind but might as well try it.
What is the easiest way to go about getting call recording to work? I've read about changing my CSC, but I'm not too keen on rooting my phone. The technical aspect is not the main thing preventing me doing it (I've rooted and loaded custom firmware on devices before), it's that I need to be able to retain full functionality including Samsung pay and from what I've seen, changing my CSC to a different region is likely to either make Samsung pay not work or only work with payment methods for/from that region. I happen to live in a state that only requires single-party consent for telephone call recording, so the fact that I can't record my calls without using another device is utter nonsense. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
