Note 9 Duos Force LTE Only on Second Sim Card Slot ! - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Hi There
Since Today i have an Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Duos SM-N960F (German DBT)
The Big Problem is that only SIM Card Slot 1 is affected when using tools like 4g Switcher or just in the Phone Info Tool.
In the Samsung Network Settings even when Sim Card Slot 1 is disabled you can not change to 4g only on SIM2 .
Yes i can switch my Sim Cards but i need them both with possibility of 4g Only in some cases.
I have no Root i know this would work with servicemode and bandselection because here you can choose the wanted Sim card and
then use the BAND Selection for LTE bands and so on. But without Root there is no way to Enter the Real Servicemode ( *#0011#)
Any Idea ?

Hey
Absolutely no way the problem is almost no one is interested in that. I was sick of all this and rooted my note 9 and installed the Alexndr dev Rom with latest pie and Magisk 18.1
The problem is that Samsung changed everything in pie and even with root all secret codes on Germany DBT are not working! Nothing. I was trying to find the EFS/carrier file but it's not there for anabling secret codes. That was how it worked with older models like note 7 and 8.
Even rooted and using Apps like Samsung Phone Information or shortcut manager are not working with Samsung and latest Pie. They get Root permission but not launching any Service codes even with root launcher. I contacted developer but no one uses pie and are doing anything.
The only thing that is working now is that I have LTE Only mode directly in the settings for both Sim cards and its working because the Dev Modified his rom. So that's what I needed but I am very disappointed that I can not enter service mode for changing specific LTE bands.
So if anyone with European N960f is able to use secret codes and real Servicemode with Android 9 please tell me which rom and csc you are.

I don't know if u can change bands but you can make shortcut master to work.
Open the app and favorite the section u want.... Eg: service mode.
Then click repeatedly on the favorite shortcut...
It will ask for root and then it should work

Hi
No even with Root and Android Pie not one Program is Working at the Moment. Even Rooted on my Note 9 with Alex Dev Rom Latest Pie and Magisk 18.1 it's not possible to
use secret codes this is redicules. First time Samsung Phone Infomation and also shortcut manager are not working even when granted root permission and launched via root launcher.
I am also active on other forums and no one has a solution . So i think i am the only one in the World wo want to change LTE Bands on my Note 9 with Pie.
I also contacted the developers of the Apps with no solution so far. Maybe it's locked on my CSC which ist DBT. But this was never a problem with Root.
Samsung must have change sonmething with Android 9 which developers have not updatet yet. At least for the Secret coded. Other things and Programs are working fine with root.

have you tried *#2263#?

What ist the different between Single and Dual version (have different hardware) ? Or only different software ?

Why not downgrade to Oreo 8.1 ? As you can select LTE Bands ?

Many thanks to you for having mentioned that ROM as it finally provides LTE only for the 2nd SIM slot!
Hence the following "in return":

You can do so under both Oreo and Pie by changing the CSC to "SIN" as the code *#2263# works there directly out of the dialer.

Sry for late reply. Glad I helped you out with that rom.
Now I have an note 10+ and I will not root anymore because to many apps will cause problems nowadays. I am glad that at least for sim1 lte only is easy possible. I am sure that it is also possible for the 2 sim slot on Samsung devices but the needed code for that is still kept a secret.

I'm using the last version and everything is ok.
Maybe you should try to wipe data of the app.

please look at my screenshot ...
Works fine here!
Works fine, maybe your sensor has broken?
Did you freeze or delete any bloatware?
My phone isn't rootable (well, it is, but it resets after reboot. Thanks a lot ATT), but I can disable apps. I had something similar to the screenshots when I disabled something, but can't remember what it was. It was something that ended up controlling the heartbeat sensor though.
So if you debloated, you need to defrost things one by one until the Measure button comes back. If you deleted, then you can only reflash your firmware.
This is the only help I can provide since no one else is having your issue and you didn't tell us what you've done to your phone.

the problem happened after a updated my shealth today !!
my sensor is ok and im using official n910H ( latest version) ROM . why after i cleared shealth data and restart , spo2 and stress feature has gone ! samsung locked some feature on some model . shi**** why doing this !! samsung sucks with this kind of updates...
Happened to me before, then I realize it's the CSC's fault. Some CSC disable's some S-Health features (THL for example) so you might need to change your CSC into something else.

How is this samsung's fault exactly? The official version for Sweden is the n910F, not n910H, so you have basically bought an unsupported phone and are crying because samsung limits some features in some firmwares for certain versions in certain regions.
when i buy a phone , i just need support
what is the difference between people ???? why should some of them have some feature and some of them not when they all bought same phone ? Im sorry for you ...
anyway , i had to use xposed module and Global shealth intead

Probably because of laws that prohibit Samsung from giving users inaccurate information (risk of being sued). Don't get it either, but as someone else already said just flash the correct csc for your region and you should be fine (no ota updates though).
If you have xposed framework there is a module called globalshealth, that will get them back, dt some messed up laws, in some regions samsung has disabled the HR sensor since they are not marketed as medical devices and should have an FDA approval to measure vital signs (as i said,some fu**ed up laws)

Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro! Help!!!

I recently bought this phone from a website that is from my country (Romania), not from China and i don't know if it has the latest firmware on it.It has Android 6.0.1 with android security patch level September 1,2016. If i check for updates,it doesn't find any. My baseband version is A9100ZCU1API2. What i'm trying to say is that i don't know if the guys from the website put on the phone a custom rom or not,because if they did there are chances that the phone will never receive software updates and that's my concern. For example, if i buy the phone from China, will it come with google services installed? Because my phone has google play store on it. I don't know if i should download the latest firmware from sammobile and install it with Odin, but the phone might have the bootloader locked or some other stuff and it can't install the firmware and i will be left with the phone bricked or stuck in dowload mode...What do you guys say, should i let it like this for a while and wait for android 7 maybe or it's fine to reinstall the firmware from sammobile?And if i reinstall the firmware will i have google services on it? Thank you!
If you have factory room, you should already got the notification about new FW, as API3 is ancient. I believe latest is AQB2 and Nougat room is in testing phase..
What's saying in Settings/About/SW info/Build number?

I attached a picture with my build number.My main question is if i can reinstall the firmware with odin and that i won't have any surprises...
It's newest build, and I believe it's factory default, so you'll get Nougat directly once it is out
SM-A9100
If i go to settings at the status device tab,it says Official....
I have one more question...Why i can't receive notifications from whatsapp,facebook/messenger, etc.... I think this is a problem on phones that come from China or don't have an international software support.... Is it because Google is not supported officialy on this kind of devices or what is the problem? Be for i got the A9, i had a Leeco Le Max 2 and it had the same problem with the notifications
You need to disable power optimization for these apps, this option pops up from time to time, or you can find it in smart manager, under power options or something. Can not give you exact location as we don't have same SW versions
SM-A9100
I don't have that option...i know what are you talking about but i can't find apps optimisation...
Hi Scrapperr,
Sorry to see you're having trouble with such a great phone
I've had the same issue you're describing - the software looks 'untouched' and 'legit' - but it's not, it has been tampered with, just check your Knox counter and you'll see what I mean (https://androidforums.com/threads/guide-how-to-check-knox-and-samsung-official-status.874951/).
App optimization is hidden in Settings / Battery / Detail - once you have the apps listed, select the app that has issues with Notification and go with 'App power saving' - 'Turned off'.
It probably won't work - unfortunately.
I ended up using t'shock's ROM - https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/development/rom-basicplus-1-t3587455 (BasicPlus) - very stable, good battery life, notifications working , but you might have issues with the SD cards - does not recognize cards larger than 32 GB and you might need to format them, in order to be usable with the phone.
If you go with the newest ROM available - listed on https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-a9--/SM-A9100/, you'll notice it does not have Play Store / Play Services and then you'll have to read https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/help/galaxy-a9-pro-chinese-how-to-install-t3388126
Good luck and enjoy using your phone
Hey, Megaurs, thanks for this light stock Rom proposal, somehow I missed it.
Just 2 questions, did you maybe tried Tungtata Rom in order to compare these 2, and what would be advantages of Basic room vs.Tungtata
And, if this Basic room is QB3, isn't it based on latest stock available?
SM-A9100
Hi Djurkash,
Testing Tungtata is on my ToDo list, will get to it eventually - if you get to try it, please share your experience
You're right, QB3 is the latest release, as per sammobile.com.
Cheers

How can I change IMEI of my Note 5? I tried Xposed.

Hi
First I tried "Mobile Uncle Tools" and it does not support my phone.
Then tried to root the phone and install Xposed + IMEI Chaneger but as I found out Xposed is not compatible with stock rom.
My phone is Samsung Note 5 Universal edition with Android 7.0
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Isn't changing your IMEI illegal in some countries?
does the imei of blocked phone need to be the same as your phone that does work on the tmobile network?

Question which custom rom compatible with nfc and other options

Hello everyone,
I want to know if there is a custom rom that is compatible with nfc to pay contactless with your phone.
But also, if this rom exists, is it compatible with android auto and voice control with google assistant.
or to keep all the options and possibilities of the phone, can I install a stock rom (my phone is locked to miu 12.5 version by my operator!) but for that I have to root and unlock the phone?
Sorry if the answer is in the foeum but I did not find in the various presentations of the roms or so I misread!
Thanks in advance for your
Isn't working NFC in ROMs pretty much the norm? Google Pay might be a bit stubborn to work in some due to SafetyNet/root complications, but should be possible to get it working most of the time.
Thank you for your answer.
I don't quite understand your first sentence, I'm not a good English speaker!!
Do you mean that now custom roms are all compatible with nfc and therefore the possibility of paying with it?
Whether with the application of his bank?
Because my bank is not compatible with Google pay!

Arrow os and pixel experience working for me, the only downside miui camera not there.
Best answer is try rom your self maybe work for me but not for you.
But if I unlock my phone, do I risk losing options like nfc permanently or can I go back?
I adhere to this request.
I tested AOSP Extended, Arrow OS, Evolution X, crDroid, in their android 11 and 12 respective versions, but in none of them I was able to make NFC work on this phone. Some of them have the NFC menu on the configuration menu and some not, but the result is always the same: I get "NFC failed" error or similar when an app needs to access the NFC device.
Before unlocking the device and installing custom ROMs, I did install the latest update of MIUI, based on android 12 (less than a month ago) to make sure I have the latest firmware installed, though I don't seem to find a way to check the current FW version without MIUI installed.
Also, I did check that NFC was working (on MIUI) before installing any custom ROM, so I know for certain it's not a hardware problem.
If I find a solution to this issue, I'll post here. Let me know if you find anything.
BR,
GH

Hmm, that is very unfortunate.
Since the Note 10 Pro has been out for a while, I guess that means there is nothing to be done about it?
Edit: However, statements by others seem to imply that NFC should be working, so maybe there is something your missing?

You should test it yourself it depends on your nfc app.

Nobe with this device, although some companies like Apple and Samsung do that.
Thank you for your answers.
My xiaomi is a global.
It seems to me to risk doing these manipulations to then lose the nfc and no longer be able to go back!
Hello, I also have the global Note 10 Pro, I am currently testing different ROMs but none of them show up or I can enable NFC, which is strange since I have seen reviews on YT where they can, I can only use NFC when I install any version from MIUI, I wanted to know if you know any news on this topic

I have been testing various roms (crDroid, PixelOS, projectElixir, evolution-X, ...) before using now, since more than a month, lineageOS 20 as daily driver.
I never met the problem you are mentioning.
I would also suggest, as someone else has just done, that you make a clean installation.

I have investigated on the subject and apparently my model "M2101K6R" has problems with the roms, but the only one that works for me is Lineage OS, and the strangest thing is that this rom automatically changes my device to "M2101K6G" and that's why NFC works for me in that rom
