THe international model will be best for that. The Snapdragons are locked down. So no unlock and no rom support. There will be root but it will be similar to the S8 snapdragons

Is there any version of the T-819 or the T-813 Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 that can't be rooted? I recently bought an H918q LG V20 before realizing that it can't be rooted, so I had to sell it. I'd like to not make the same mistake again. Thanks in advance.

I meant, variants, such as "SM-T813NZDEXAR". Are there any variants of T-813 or T-819 that can't be rooted?

Not unless it's Verizon or AT&T model. If you get an international model.I.E. not a carrier branded model you should be fine.
WiFi versions are never locked.

Hi, mine is N960F/DS
I've got no idea what it means. I think the first "F" is for "international", rest, who knows?

Good one, thank you Paul!
I'm located in the USA and AT&T is my carrier. I would like to be able to run custom ROMs on the phone. I did a quick search and came up with the following models "SM-N960F or SM-N960F/DS". Which version of the Note 9 is able to run custom ROMs? Thank you in advance for your advice.

960F and 960F DS are exynos variant, with unlocked/unlockable bootloader, both should run custom firmware without problems.
The difference being one is dual sim (hence the ds in the name).
960U/960U1 are snapdragon variants and have a locked bootloader, so no go on those.

So do the SM-N960F or SM-N960F/DS have all the correct bands for AT&T? Just curious as I have always wanted to do what you are doing...

Thank you for the information regarding the different versions of the Note9. I will go ahead and pickup the 960F DS.

Based on this thread, it looks like the 960F DS has the correct bands to run on AT&T. It may be missing some features such as Wifi calling though.

DS means dual sim. D is the single sim.
snapdragon also have the n9600 that is rootable.
only one dev right now so only 1 rom in xda.
might be more in the future...
forum is full of this info. brows around.

Should be good. Past W models of the Canadian snapdragon are identical hardware wise to the USA U models.

Cross flashing firmwares will brick your phone from what I have read here in the forums.

W to U should be fine as there identical phones. When you sayn cross flashing firmwareI believe you mean Snapdragoon to Exynos Samsung phones not Snapdragon to Snapdragon or Canadian W to US U
