burning question why unlocked devices are updated with security patches first - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Someone must know why the great USA carriers and devices are last. I just can't see the logic on why. any comments other than related to topic will be disregarded.

any logic to why unlocked first or is it only samsung who would know. And for reference, the samsung techs nor support can give that answer.

[Q] Carrier IQ and the Samsung Focus S

Hi,
I have searched for any information on Carrier IQ and the Samsung Focus S but have not found any. I have a Focus S and would like to know if anyone knows if this software is integrated or installed on the Focus S and if so, can it be removed or disabled? I had a long converation with Samsungmobile via their Live Support chat function and they less than forthcomming which makes me immediately suspicious.
Many thanks in advance
Your phone is safe. No WP7 devices have CIQ installed.
Many thanks, that's a relief

Note 8 Snapdragon - Unlocked Bootloader

Quick question. I know there is a roundabout root method for Snapdragon with SamFAIL, but I am curious if anyone is still working to acquire an unlocked bootloader for Snapdragon, for the full root/recovery experience?

Nice canned answer. Don't you think anyone with a brain tries that first? I'm looking for today's updates. Not updates from Oct. 5th. SMH.

It's simple, take a look at what has been done for current & past Galaxy S Snapdragons. Note phones follow just like the SamFAIL method. There's a reason why people go through the trouble of getting Exynos.
If a method happens to be found/released you will easily find it in a search or quickly in the development section cause it will be big news. Search does work well, if you don't find a method, it's cause it doesnxt exist yet. I personally doubt it will ever happen. The Note 8 is the first time I ever went with an international model for the very same reason.

Wasn't asking if it existed yet, already knew that. As mentioned, anyone with a brain does a search prior to asking to see if it exists first. I was asking if it was still being worked on. Is there any possible way to get Exynos version to work on Verizon?

Lol. I'll be sure to. You could have typed less words answering my question, than getting your panties in another wad over the forum search again. SMH.
For anyone without a brain.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/search/forum/6801?query=snapdragon bootloader
I'll post a real answer being that all the jerks seem to be chiming in. There has not been an unlocked bootloader on a Snapdragon Samsung device since the Note 4. That was kind of a unique situation because there were Developer's devices floating around at the time. It's never impossible for it to happen, but it is super unlikely for any exploits to allow an unlock at this point. I would even go as far to say that it is almost impossible being that most developers opt out of even owning Snapdragon Samsung devices now and there is likely only maybe a handful of people working on it at best.
To all the "use the search button" people, why not just ignore the post if you don't want to answer it? There is nothing to be gained by being a jerk.
The REAL answer is like @jal3223 says. There are a couple of us working on it. I think like 3...
Is there an Exynos variant that works on Verizon?

It's cause of inability of people like you who do not seem to understand the simple fact that us versions of recent galaxy series have not had any unlocked bootloaders. But unlike any one, you choose to ignore the fact to do some basic search in xda or any other forums. If you feel you are technically sound and smart you should have bought yourself a non snapdragon variant and live happily. Also the dev forum section for note8 has the same q answered multiple times over and over again. Try to keep your pants on before being a sissy to others and ask meaningfully. Peace.

Your so disgruntled. This is not a big deal. It's really not. Dude didn't even ask if it was unlocked, but if it was still being worked on. Which is a legitimate question, even after using the search bar. C'mon guy, stop getting upset, and let's all have some pizza!!!
I appreciate all the REAL answers from those that responded! Glad to hear somebody is still trying, and understand it's a very long shot, but figured since there was a quick root method, maybe there a better chance of unlocking with this Note model.
myechophone may not have found a way to unlock the BL on the Note 8, but he has discovered a way to give himself a period every month, and he is on it right now. Best to ignore him while he has a hormonal meltdown about the forum search.

Well the "quick root method" took advantage of the fact that the s8 and s8+ are very similar firmware and hardware wise. Therefore we were actually looking for exploits for 3 devices at once. It was first found to be working on s8. Then we tested on N8. Sure enough it worked. At that point I had been working on root for N8 for almost a month straight(got my phone early)
Sorry new here.. So am I to believe there is a root method for Carrier unlocked version snapdragon Note 8? If so what is it and does it trip Knox? Sorry for the dumb questions.

Note 8 has no root or custom firmwares?

Does it have, got my Note 8 a week ago but just wondering has I have not seen anykind of movement for the US variant.

Oh wow, thanks before posting I searched and found nothing only for older versions using SamFail. Thanks anyways loooool glad to see a gooood comunity

For the US 950U and 950U1 snapdragon there is no root for the May update. That is bootloader revision 4 and has no root at this time. Your best bet is to keep a eye on the samfail thread for updates.
If your past U3 were sol for now. I think theres only one guy working on a possible partial root. There are lots of apps for theming. Substranium and Good lock are great.

Don't give us the 'lmao such a good community, how about you go and suck it because I don't want to research' attitude.
It's not our fault you couldn't be bothered to check for any activity and read around.
Plus people are tired of having others ask the same question hundreds of others have asked related to root, it's all about searching or reading.
Don't you think if someone found a way to root the newest firmware there would be a lot more sites talking about it?
Sarcasm aside, no, there is no root for Oreo Bootloaders (U4). Only Nougat with U3 or below.

Before posting I always use the search feature cause it's very usefull. Has you know there are multiple threads and forums and specifically a T-Mobile Model one and its pretty much dead. If YOU read above I said that I didn't see any kind of activity. Another one is that if you read more down below, I stated that all I could find is a SamFail one but it's pretty outdated. So I came here to the Questions & Answers area and posted this thread here to see if anyone had an idea of whats happening with the US models
I don't need for someone to come here and tell me
"Oh don't be lazy and use the search funtion"
Already stated on the first post. Sheesh
And yeah, thanks for the bootloader part.

The thing is theres not much firmware differences between models. They might have slight baseband changes but they're all based on the same thing. So root that would work on a Verizon Note8 would work on a T-Mobile Note8.
And yes, the only one we have is sadly the V3 for those unlucky to update.
And I imagine people would check the last section of the thread to be on standby since apparently theres a new exploit that might (or might not) help.
This is why I assumed you didn't check first, but since you did (I didn't see that part), I apologize.

Thanks for the heads up, I really like the root and all that stuff. Especially for getting rid of all T-Mobile crap on the phone.

Don't worry, I searched everywhere but nothing found. Sometimes you know, people spread rumors or someone may know of something that's been on progress but it doesn't come up on public threads.
I been rooting my phones literally ever since I had an Android phone and always do my reaserch before posting on forums, cause you know there's always the people that come and say "Use the search feature" and always try to avoid that.
And yeah, all I read about was on Nougat. So I'll just asume it's dead.

You switch phones a lot too? Same, heh. Went from having a Note 4 to iPhone 8 Plus, then Note 8, then iPX, then back to Note 8 (cause drawing), but to be fair, I do miss a little of Apple.
To be fair, it's not dead (yet) since the Oreo update landed pretty recently, plus the only tool we had for making it possible got executed pretty much, so I'd give it a little time.
And that search feature situation is a fair point.

Yeah, I have had literally all flagship phones by now except for the Huawei P20.
Last Apple Device I had was the iPX, very good device but the atmosphere of the OS makes it pretty boring to me and get bored at it pretty quickly has you can't make any changes to the look of it.
I got this Note 8, exchanged it for my iPX. The guy that maked the deal with me gave me around 200 bucks and the Note for the iPhone lol.
I love the Note 8, super fast and love the big screen.

Has anyone gotten the Snapdragon note 9 to root yet?

I'm just checking if there's been a root discovered yet because it's been awhile and I'm just checking in to see if any progress has been made. Thanks
Yes. I rooted my T+Mobile Note 9 this morning. I unlocked the bootloader, rooted it, used Magisk Hide to preserve Knox so I have Samsung Pay, free hotspot, no bloat, and 20 hour SOT.

common knowledge like what is root and how to do it is as common as what is acctualy rootable and how to achieve it.
the common ground is reading and searching. If self evident topics aren't found to match your wishes, then why would asking the question make it possible when what is available is what's achievable.

technically what i quoted you on, dosen't qualify as a real ontopic question. so your above statement has no weight. my comment was more in response to your 'reply' to mr.orange and partly on the actual benefits of reading and using search.

It is not possible to root the US Snapdragon version of the Note 9. It's impossible to unlock the bootloader, and root has not and will not be discovered.
If you want root you need to buy an international Exynos version.
I made a sarcastic response, because this question has been asked about a hundred times on this forum. Yes, this forum is for you to learn. I WANT you to learn. But there's so much information here already. Either use the search function befotr asking a question (which is actually in the rules that you agreed to by signing up for an account), or use Google, which will often lead you to the relevant thread here on XDA. Teach a man to fish, or give a man a fish.
I guarantee if root had been achieved, it would be a stickies thread and the number 1 most popular thread on here.
As far as personal insults from you, they roll off my back. You don't know me. And Steve Buscemi who played Mr. Pink is one of my favorite actors, so that's actually cool.
* * * Thread Cleaned * * *
Let's all remember that posting rude, disrespectful, insulting, and off-topic comments are violations of Forum Rules.
While I understand the frustration of dealing with those who ask without searching, or who start trouble, you can see how effective it is to remind them that they should first search; it just leads to more back and forth, bickering, and insults, etc....
I would ask that in the future, when someone is too lazy to search, if you do not feel like answering the question for the 100th time, simply do not respond at all, or if they become bothersome, simply REPORT their posts and allow Moderation staff to handle the situation.
As everyone can see, it went from a few lazy or insulting posts to nearly a page full with all the responses included
I appreciate all the members who use Xda as designed, who do their homework, search, and respond with helpfulness and respect.
Thanks!
tl;dr
Don't feed the trolls, become part of the solution (report troublemakers), not part of the problem (argue with troublemaker)

Truth. However, that is because Samsung allowed the international version to be bootloader unlocked. The US Snapdragon (N960U) can NOT be unlocked or rooted.

Unlock locked frp Huawei p30 pro..

Hey guys!
I'm sure there is a lot of posts like this one but I couldn't find the right one so if someone finds it please share
So my problem is that my dad bought a Huawei p30 pro (Vog-l29) and little did he know about the google account.. I did a factory reset and now I'm stuck.. Any ideas how to fix it?
I'm far from pro in doing stuff like this but I'm familiar with a lot of ways so if some one with more experience could just point me in the right direction with names of programs and files I would be very thankful! I've read a lot of ways to do it but then they mention that it won't unlock it.. I have a USB cable for it and a Windows computer, do I need something else?
Would really appreciate some help!
Thanks in advance!

Usually, looking for frp bypass means a lot things...
If not, just try 'frp' on the search bar, there's subjects about.
And, of course, you could also go to an official repair center : they'll unlock it for you.

Hi. I guess the easiest way is to flash the factory image to the phone.
Look here:

When I flash new firmware my Google account is gone and I have to enter my information to start the phone with my account.
Its not that hard to flash the firmware. Follow The guide.

You must have online emails and ebay or whichever site you used logs from the sale/purchase, phone number of the seller had to come from somewhere
How did you pay for it? Bank transfer/Paypal, both have paper trails/logs of the seller
Find it hard to believe you have 0 proof of purchase and 0 methods of contacting the seller

Thread cleaned up a bit.
First of all, xda does allow threads regarding FRP bypass as long as it's clearly not for illegal purposes.
Second, if you think it IS for illegal purposes, report it! Don't reply as if you are a Moderator of this site or flame the member. This could land you in hot water.
I'll quote some of the rules here since it's MY job to do so:
2. Member conduct.
2.3 Flaming / Lack of respect: XDA is about sharing and this does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) or rudeness. Flaming or posting with a lack of respect is unacceptable. Treat new members in the manner in which you would like to have been treated when you were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice and instructions when you can, showing them respect and courtesy. Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful or self-righteous manner.
2.5 All members are expected to read and adhere to the XDA rules.
10. Help others if you can.
If you see posts from others where you can help out, please do so. This place exists because people are helping each other, and even if you are relatively new to the matter, there's probably quite a few people with less experience than you, who could benefit from what you've learned. Don't be shy.

Thanks but that post is actually incorrect. I assure you we do allow them unless it's clearly breaking the law. It all stems from the introduction of FRP when devices were being sold without the Google account being properly removed. Many users found themselves in this exact situation. They purchased a device that had been simply factory reset. Which was enough before the introduction of FRP but now when they set up their newly purchased device, they are asked for the previous owner's password.
