In a online store there is a note 5 with the model number of N920F. Can I know is there such model number available and what region it's for?
Thank you...

hi, guys. there is no 920f. i bought a samsung phone with the back tag reading sm-n920f. but here was no firmware update for it so i did a little search. this is what i found out.
i installed phoneinfo from playstore and it tells me the model is not n920f but n920v. so i downloaded the n920v firmware from sammobile and installed it using odin. guess what it works perfectly.
if you have the original samsung note 5 which reads n920f kindly install the phoneinfo software from playstore to get the actual model number and reinstall the firmare.
Same mine,but it's weird, it's Rooted,busybox installed and Konx it is not Tripped 0x0.Bootloader it is N920P. i realy don't know what is this. it is any chance to install a recovery (TWRP) without brick the phone?i miss ViperAndroiFx.

Why didn't it help? You asked where to find the odin files. I answered with a google term you can use to find a site that has the ODIN files.
Because it's asking for the country and USA isn't available. Unknown is available and the build number matches. This is the n920i using it in the USA on at&t
The 920I is not an AT&T variant let alone a US variant so you will not find a build for it labeled AT&T or US. Sammobile is more than likely your best bet.
As previously mentioned, n920i isn't an AT&T (or even a US) device.

Download Phone INFO Samsung from Play Store, and post screenshots to know which firmware you can install without having issues.
Here is some pics from that app.

Hello all, could you help me to root my Note 5 Duos N9208 with 6.0.1 update. The build version is MMB29K.N9208ZTU4BPJ1. I tried the cf auto autoroot but the version does not coincide.
Could you help me??

Hi, I have same model from Taiwan, 64Gb version I bought from ebay.
What I did was install CROM from the Samsung app store to enable installation of customer roms. Then you have to go to developers options and enable OEM Unlock and USB Debug.
Then you flash CF-Autoroot via Odin. I installed a different version since I didn't find one that matched my phone version and I had no problems.
If you cannot find CROM in the Samsung app store, google the apk and install it.
To enable Developer option, go to settings > General and tap multiple times the software version, or something there, I don't remember very well which one, but you will see a counter saying something like "tap X more times to enable developer menu."
I hope it works for you, too.

Here is the links from my Google Drive:
CF-Autoroot: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3xPBTglKzZ1cVB1TDNmOGN4Yms
Note 5 CROM: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3xPBTglKzZ1Z2czTlo0NUV1ck0
CROM comes in Taiwanese, just install and open it. I did this a year ago, so I don't remember if you have anything like "Accept" and "Decline", maybe yes, but I don't know how to read that in Taiwanese.
Good luck mate! Hope you don't have any issues, I didn't have any. BTW, although CROM won't kill knox, CF-Root will certainly do it.
Cheers!

Why are you posting in the development forum ?
Maybe read and understand xda rules...
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers mobile app
Hello all,
I recently purchased an unlocked Note 8 (model number SM-N950F). One of the reasons I decided to make the jump for the Note 8 was for Samsung Pay, but as I'm currently discovering, my model is preventing me from being able to use the service. I'm in the US, but the phone was designed for South East European markets and therefore won't allow the Pay app to work in the US.
I read somewhere about a possibility of switching the firmware on the phone to get the service running (effectively switching the region by switching the country's firmware). I, unfortunately, was unable to find any concrete evidence that it would be possible or work in my case. I decided to turn to the powerful minds of XDA to figure this out.
What I'm looking at is possibly installing a different country's firmware (possible issue with the US variant having a Snapdragon processor as opposed to the Exynos processor that my variant has) or I thought maybe rooting the device and changing the model number in the device files to a US variant would work. Would either of these work?
Thanks for the help!
I read somewhere on here that you can Odin flash Australian 950F firmware and that will allow you to use American credit cards etc with Samsung Pay.
Can't vouch for it since i have a rooted 950N
Have the same problem. Using my S3 now for Pay. Would love to have this answered.
After some further research, just as I suspected, rooting the phone trips the Knox efuse, which will also prevent the Samsung Pay application from working, so the only viable option that I know of would be to flash (using odin not TWRP) another country's firmware.
You only need one friend whit us versions to send you the pay framework apk and pay US apk. Sebd me pm. I have US tmo version. My fruend have the same problem and I sent him the apkS and it worked
I just bought an unlocked Note 8 N950F that had the Singapore CSC and I also couldn't use Samsung Pay. I switched to the Australia XSA and Samsung Pay works perfectly in the US. The only thing is that it doesn't have Samsung Rewards since it's a US promotion. AMEX and Whitepages also work. I just went to Sammobile.com and downloaded the latest XSA firmware. Going from one stock ROM to another does not trigger Knox either. Hope that helps.

How did you install those apks? I got PaymentFramework.apk (com.samsung.android.spayfw - Samsung Pay Framework) and SamsungPayStub.apk (com.samsung.android.spay - Samsung Pay) from another firmware but... "App not installed"
My issue is amex doesn't work on sampay UAE (other Banks do).
I started by flashing entire roms but eventually I have flashed just the csc of various roms from sammobile. Either Sam pay won't work after each flash or it still only works with the banks i could do on the UAE CSC it came with. So it doesn't change anything.
Did anyone find a way? I have the n950n Korean version and it says I need to insert a Korean SIM. I even tried with the original SIM to set it up and it won't authorize without a working SIM. I contacted Samsung UK and they said it wasn't possible. Not sure if they said that because it would be too in depth. Just seeing if there is a way to do all of this as I would love to have Samsung pay actually work!
You maybe able to use Samsung Pay on the N950F if the card, which you wish to register used with Samsung Pay is supported.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Duos SM-N9500
Android 7.0
64Gig
Build MMB29K.G950FXXU1APFO
believe bootloader is V1
Is it possible to get my verizon service working on the sm-n9500. Sim is recognized but no auth I have entered APN settings that made no change.
I read I may need to flash I can not find a definitive answer to what FW and ROM I should flash to get it converted over to a US phone.
I read SM-N950U1 maybe the FW to use.
Can you please help me to understand what I need to do.

You can try HOME_CSC file of any N950U firmware in Prince Comsy's Odin but it may not work

Does the 9500 have Google play and does it feel like a US device or a Chinese device

It comes with Google play and works fine.
The only issues I have are that Samsung pay and Bixby are showing more Chinese offers and searches than local (I'm based in the UK).
Other than that, great phone!
Hey guys,
I've been up and down the forums looking for answers and come out thoroughly confused, so thought it would be best to ask for help from the professionals.
I am in New Zealand and have recently purchased an imported S10 from the states (site never said it was imported, would have gone local had I known), model SM-G973U. I've since realised that the phone will not update, and has been stuck on the June security patch since I got it. Contacted Samsung NZ and they said that because the phone isn't approved by my local carrier (Spark) no updates are getting pushed through.
I've thought of flashing a Spark-based version of the phone so I can receive updates but because the local versions of this phone are a different model (SM-G973F) I'm worried whether this will even work or if it will brick my phone entirely.
Is this something I can safely do, or will I have to resort to flashing updates manually?
Thanks guys, these forums really are great.

Hi dude,
Don't try to update your G973U with a G973F firmware coz SoC of those devices are different ! Your model has a snapdragon but G973F (international S10 version) has an Exynos (Samsung made chipset).
What you can do if you really want to update it is to download this firmware and flash it through latest Odin (google or youtube this if you don't know how to proceed).
P.S. Firmware I linked here is the USA unbranded one, idk really know if this CSC will support your local carrier so make a backup of your device before processing !
Hey sorry I've been too caught up in life to try this until now, but I gave that firmware a go, flashed it with the latest odin and it's worked without a hitch, carrier settings intact and all.
Thanks for the guidance!
