Do you know if the U variants have unlocked bootloaders ? For rooting/rom purposes whats best variant to get?

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

Recently bought one with a dual sim, it is international unlocked but has the Snapdragon 845, from what I heard only exynos has a unlocked bootloader? Aloha !
That is correct from what I understand as well, I wouldn't try it and wait for someone to develop a root hack workaround
I was under the impression that the HK 9600 snapdragon was bootloader unlocked.

I'm confused. What does "maybe we should just wait until we get a Snapdragon first" mean??? Do you have a n9600 Snapdragon note 9?

What region fw is on your phone? We probably will need China, or Hong Kong fw flashed, then crom will work. Then any n9600 fw can be flashed, and bl will still be unlocked. Unfortunately my n9600 still isn't here.
Edit, I forgot, after you enable developer options, you have to wait 7days for oem unlock to appear.
Or try the attached image way. Ugh, wish I had my phone.

China fw. Flash it in Odin, use crom to unlock bl, then flash whatever fw you please as long as it's for n9600.

Any luck? Once we get bl unlocked, we will need someone to work on twrp., Then root.

I though the bootloaders on all Samsung devices are locked straight out of the box.
I have an unlocked snapdragon variant s10, but the only ROM I could find that supports it is https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-unofficial-10-0-lineageos-17-1-beyond0qlte.4190389/
So does Exynos variant ROM work on my snapdragon?

AFAIK no. Please do not flash Exynos firmware/rom to your snapdragon device.

No. You will brick your phone if you flash an Exynos ROM to a Snapdragon phone.
hi everyone,

i am geeting confused as i read more and more thread but not able to find anything.

No root method as the US models have locked bootloaders. Been like this since the S7 came out.

Yes all US Note 9's have locked bootloaders. If you want one with an unlocked bootlader then buy the international Snapdragon model which has a unlocked bootloader.
