Yes but t815 firmwares are not compatile with t815y so it's a good question if root is the same

Root and firmware are 2 different things.
All that is required for the root exploit to work is that the kernel it uses is bootable and can mount the partitions.
Considering these devices are essentially the same, as long as it flashes and boots it should work.
The point is moot anyway as it's already confirmed to work.
Hi Guy, Confirm root my device by using CF Auto Root SM-T815
Thanks
Now is all about waiting for 5.1 update or any rom.
Any kernels or rom work on the Y variant?
Thanks guys.

Pretty much any custom rom/kernel should work even wifi only, but obviously no LTE.
Its up to you to try it out and make sure you have a backup.
Is there a specific root dedicated only to 815Y device?
I used the method specified here to root on my SM-T815Y device (Made in Brazil). While Odin has shown that everything had gone well and without fail, my tablet came into infinite boot (soft brick).
I've seen here that some people managed to root their "Y" devices, but personally don't know if they are equal in all locations where they are produced
Apparently the "Y" makes all the difference. Is there a specific root dedicated only to 815Y device? If there, would be grateful to know. Tks

You can still flash twrp OK?
Try to flash supersu beta v2.52 and report back.

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!

I heard if you have the HK version then you must Odin flash the CHN bootloader. Download the CHN software and use Odin to flash only the BL. Then you can unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP. There is a thread that explains all that. Just search.

hi guys i am having a problem right now. my first note 9 was a n9600 snapdragon hk variant it was replaced by the vendor due to factory defect and was replace by a n960n single sim 512gb special edition model. my question is, is it possible to flash this with other official firmware to remove bloatwares from KTc to let say other exynos model? thank you in advance.

nope.( maybe with adb commands you can manualy disable/delete packages)https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access
if you root then you can do what ever but if not, then you are stuck. all 4 firmwares/carriers available for the n960n have bloat.And no you cant flash with odin an n960f stock firmware.
thanks @bober10113. sorry im kinda new in this things. another question. is it possible to change those language i see in samsung members and and other samsung apps? because right now all i see is korean language. is there anyway to change this to english/local language?

that would again be because of the csc installed.( one of the big 4 korean carriers. again if rooted wouldint be an issue to switch.
thank you again @bober10113 for giving me a clear picture. another question. is it possible to flash other n960n official firmware? right now i have a korean version of it. is it possible to flash it with n960n english?

well i am not sure if for example LG+ ( LUC ) would have more 'english' menus but you can try.... yeah LG has a carrier and they sell Samsung phones! my note 8 was a N950N LUC and on the box there was an LG+ logo !
past 2 phones have been Korean models that i specifically bought and have not had any issues or defects. I always root and it has been quite easy because it has the OEM unlock option right away, no need to wait 7 days.
also since i dont need knox or samsung pay, root is the way to go for me. so much fun i wouldint live without rooting.
i guess root is the way. i dont need knox and samsung pay either because its not usable in our country and no merchant here supports it. thanks @bober10113. and last can you put me in the direction of the guide to root my phone? again thank you so much.

you might to read through the thread. especially the last 10 posts or so.
hi again @bober10113. i have read the link you gave me. now my question is if i install twrp then install magisk will i be able to install local firmwares like n960f? and will this still trip knox? even though its a official firmware? thanks.

once twrp is installed all bets are off. knox will be tripped.
but this will allow you to install magisk disable or delete bloat.
if this is not enough then you will be able to download a new rom.
a rom is a custom firmware. so you could get a rom that has everything you are looking for. usualy all roms for exynos and for N960F/ds. they will also contain full english locale.
have a look in this thread and see which Rom suits you better:

once twrp is installed, fone is considered as being modified. so might aswell take advantage of root.
And if i remember correctly to be able to boot into system, right now on the note 9 you need magisk to be flashed in twrp recovery.
so there issint really a way around it for now.( others can confirm or correct me on this).
alexander rom might be the exception though. read thread and post questions there if need be concerning a rootless install.
but magisk su has an 'su hide' feature where it will hide the system modification and root status from certain apps. you can even hide magisk from specific apps too. so if you need to install specific software that only runs in stock unmodified systems, it may very well work if these features are enabled correctly.
thank you ver much @bober10113. will check those threads. and go on with twrp magisk custom rom combo.

There's no such model N920F existed.
I highly doubt you got refurbished note 5 with some spoofed software running on it.
Boot into download mode and check the original motherboard model. whatever model number shows in download mode SM-N920? that's your phone correct model.
