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

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

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to buy the best possible Exynos Galaxy Note 8, and I'm surprised and lost on the number of models available.
Would N950N be a good choice? I would like to replace the ROM by a stock-based one as usual, install TWRP, root, etc.
Would this model work in Brazil and USA on roaming?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

it works, but you'll end up flashing a 950F-based ROM anyway as all the development is using those as a base.
as for "works in Brazil and USA on roaming" that entirely depends on which bands you need.

So we could assume that N950F would be a better choice or doesn't matter anyway?

They are identical hardware, and if you are flashing a ROM anyway the software won't matter either.
The only real consideration I can think of is internal storage, since I believe the 950F is still only available as 64gb, while the N can be bought in a 256gb version.
Get the UK or UAE unlocked dual sim 64 gb version. I have the UK one from Samsung UK. I have my UK EE sim and AT&T sim active. I'm on rooted magisk Dr. Ketan Rom N4 with Iron Kernel 1.1.2. OEM UNLOCK available immediately and still post rom install. Wonda Mobile has the UAE version.
You can get the 950F 128GB in mexico
I really prefer to have the 6GB/256GB Exynos version, so N950N seems a good choice.

No such thing as a 256GB Exynos version, it'll be a Snapdragon.

Yes, there is. Single sim Korean variant. https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/help/n950n-note-8-256gb-att-t3675577
You're thinking of the Chinese variant N9500, which is Snapdragon.

Quite a few of us have the 256gb N950N from Korea which is Exynos.
Ah my bad, i was thinking a dual sim 256gb Exynos for some reason...

Here is a models reference list for Note 8 incl. cell bands:
https://www.techwalls.com/samsung-galaxy-note-8-sm-n950-model-number-differences/
knowing that, you can look-up the proper firmware in SamMobile.
N950F and N950FD are the same! The D only stands for dual SIM but both are using the same firmware.
Don't be afraid to hit the "Thanks" button if someone helped you. It don't hurts

I see differences between these two versions in regard to LTE bands, ver. F has 10 bands vs. 16 in FD. The 'F' is exclusive to EU, FD is EU and beyond.

That is correct! However I wouldn't recommend installing the stock OS from the N950F onto the N950FD. As the modem software maybe different as the FD model has dual SIM capabilities.

thank you for the reply, so i think ive narrowed it down to uk unlocked sm-N950FZKDBTU however sammobile doesnt seem to have this firmware

And which firmware you want to install instead? There is only one version available for F and FD!
I also have the FD variant device and flashed the F firmware (also only bootloader and modem) more then 1 time!

They're the same firmware actually in this case, so no worries there. For example, on Sammobile there is no N950FD firmware, only N950F firmware which works for both models.
Thank you for clarification, very interesting. So, the script addresses the differences on its own. Am trying to add Android to the list of my after_hours hobbies. I have a lot to learn. I was wondering about adding Band66 from N950FZKDBTU to F/DS version. T-Mobile has that here in the US, and I thought that maybe I could flash the radio partitions from the UK version so, no, it has to be done by nv edit. I'd think.

From where you got that information? You have a source?

G9730 it's a Snapdragon variance as the G973F it's Exynos, so that's a hard not possible.

OK, that's a big difference, I ignored it...
Could I flash the USA unlocked S10 firmware (SM-G973U1), on my Japanese DOCOMO S10 (SC-03L).
The SC-03L is the snapdragon variant of the S10. And from what I've read (Excuse it being the S9 Forum) it might have different LTE bands. So, I was wondering if it was possible or not.
Thanks in advance!
