What is the difference between ASAT and ASAB firmware? I need help picking a firmware

I've attempted to searched up the different kinds of firmware for this model phone and as far as I'm aware for the F series (international) versions of the S10 it is either for UK, Asia, or Europe
I have a Galaxy S10 G973F/DS and when I got it the stock firmware on it was G973FXXU1ASAT. Although reading further I've seen other firmwares ending in ASBA and ASC8.
I guess this means the Dual Sim model can only come from the asia model according to this chart

I've been attempting to add TWRP onto my phone using this guide and I've been having difficulty with it and I dont know if the firmware I downloaded is not compatible with it. So if anyone else has any suggestions on firmware I'd like to know.

ASAT, ASBA, ASC8 are all different releases of the Firmware.... They are released in order Alpha and Numerically, So ASAT is the Oldest you named and ASC8 is the Newest... The most important is that the Model and bootloader portion of the firmware name is correct. G973FXXU1.... Then you have to find THAT EXACT FIRMWARE for your Carrier. Which like I said is NOT the ASC8 part(thats just the firmware release). It will be identified with a CSC code like "XAA"
So, at the end, you want the G973FXXU1ASC8 (or newer now) Firmware for whatever carrier you have...
Today, I would flash G973FXXU3ASIG for whatever COUNTRY/Carrier you need...

I am assuming you have a refurbished note 9 that is SM-N960N korean version with modified software that shows N960F because N960F has more value in market.
But sadly you got korean note 9 which is fine in most cases but if you want to upgrade the software to android 10 you have to flash N960N firmware via odin tool.
If your phone is dual sim you will lose dual sim capability if you flash N960N firmware because N960N never came with dual sim variant.some refurbishing companies they clone the main Imei to dual imei so it can convert single sim to dual sim "software wise" but its actually faked 2nd imei.

First tou have to flash full android 10 n960n firmware via odin
Then go to developer option and turn on oem unlock option.
Then You have to flash twrp recovery via odin
Then you can flash "dr keten rom" on your device from twrp recovery
Dr keten rom is the only rom android 10 with dual sim patch will work on your device.

Make sure choose dual sim patch option when you flash the rom.

Thank you very much for giving a full tutorial to me.

@Trex888 Will this restore the mobile to Official status or it will still be rooted? And will we encounter any problems with wifi or the network we use?
Also, in our country we have to pay tax for each IMEI, will my IMEI change as well?

Galaxy Note 9 SM-N960N Flash Indian firmware

hi,
Somehow my Galaxy note 9 i purchased form Dubai is showing SM-N960F/DS in the software information, but actually the device is SM-N960N model with single sim which is a Korean model. The seller actually made a software customization to work the dual sim and the device is also rooted.I can not see any software update options on the settings list. I have tried to install the Indian firmware using Odin, but nothing works.
So is there any solutions to change the firmware to Indian??

I would recommend that you install the stock N960N OS back onto your device. You can change the language interface to Indian, during the setup process after you installed the OS

Docomo Note 8 SC-01K (Snapdragon) with SM-N950F firmware.

Hello,
Recently i bought a used Japanese Docomo Note 8 (snapdragon), i believe that the stock rom is tweaked/upgraded/modified to accept my local carrier in Malaysia.
I did a search and found that Snapdragon chip is only available on SM-N950U/SM-N9500 version but it appears that my phone model number in "about phone" is SM-N950F.
As far as i know that N950F is using Exynos SoC.
I am now having trouble to install and use Shealth together with others banking app or even Samsung Pay.
I checked my chipset from CPUz and it is indeed a Snapdragon but running on SM-N950F version of firmware.
this is my current firmware information:-
BL : N950FXXS5DSC5
AP : N950FXXS5DSC5
CP : N950FXXS5DSC5
CSC : N950FOXM5DSB2
HW REV : N950JPN.04
(More on details on my attached screenshot)
I downloaded latest firmware for N950F and flash with latest Odin, result is fail attempt with "secure check fail : pit"
I have limited knowledge on Samsung Note 8 firmware and hoping that you can enlighten me.
My plan is to identify what is going on with the current stock firmware and if possible to flash back to Original stock rom (CSC: XME) or perhaps any Multi-CSC stock firmware.
Or is it save to just using custom rom with bricking the device?

Question In regards to flashing.

Hi. Can I flash my s21 ultra 5g model SM-G998U(XAA/XAA/XAA/ATT) using a flash file for SM-G998U1.

Yes, the firmware for the U/U1 is interchangeable; the U generally has carrier bloatware while the U1 does not.
However, do NOT flash firmware for any other model, such as B, N, or W.

I'm from Africa a using a snapdragon model so the region won't affect me downloading and flashing the flash file
