Note 9 on ATT not updating - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

I'm on stuck 8.1.0 with Samsung experience 9.5.
Baseband version is N960USQU1ARI4. I hadn't received an update since last August, tried using firmware science and updated twice to get to where I am now... but firmware science doesn't have a (from) file for this version.
Downloaded odin (assume that's next) but looking for some guidance about what to do next (would rather ask then brick my phone if possible)

Also, I'm glad to go to Best Buy (Samsung suggested that) but I've seen suggestions that they may not be that helpful. ATT store wasn't useful.

So I don’t need to update firmware or do any other intermediate steps?

Can I flash that and then immediately flash another firmware, or do I need to boot up in between flashes?
Thanks so much, finally got it going, and for anyone else's benefit it automatically reboots after the load so you cannot flash both consecutively.

IMEI Null G925A

So, I flashed the 7.0 firmware on my phone it worked well, then an update cane out that also worked well. In April now another update came out I flashed it and I was unable to get past the set up wizard so I downgraded to marshmallow then ugraded to 7.0 again. After I upgraded back I realized my imei and based band were unknown and I wasn't able to make any calls, is there any fix for this, I haven't been able to call or receive calls for over 2 weeks and help is much appreciated.
After upgrading to QC9 follow the bellow procedure.

Hi, I am trying to load the default software back onto my P10 Plus, It was originally on the GB software and I changed it to the duel sim VKY-L09C432B160, I did that with no problems but now I have downloaded all the right rom files but when I do the HWOTA method it fails, I think its something to do with the OEM file, It has it for most but not for the VKY-L09GBRC555 and I cannot locate it anywhere, Can anybody help?

Not able to install OneUI Beta 9.0 on my Note 9 Xfinity

I have unlocked SM-N960U and I seem to be unable to get Samsung+ to display the banner for oneUI beta, I then tried several times to do it manually by doing ODIN but I keep getting port problem even after uninstalling and reinstalling the USB cable driver and restarting the computer.
I followed these instructions as posted in another thread

Don't use Odin with that firmware. That's not for your device. That's for N960F. Yours is N960U. I believe you have the snapdragon version. This firmware is for the exynos model. Please be careful not to brick your phone. Always properly read the instructions and thread titles.
Maybe someone else can help you with the snapdragon pie version as I own the exynos model. Good luck.
That xda link you posted is also for N960F. Be careful.

The beta is closed now. And there's no reason to start a whole new thread. There's already a out four threads talking about installing the beta on Snapdragon devices. Use the search bar. Read those threads. If you can't find your answers, then you can ask questions in a pre-existing thread. Although considering the EXACT steps you need to take to install the beta have been spelled out several times (many time by me in various threads), you will find your answers if you take time to look for them.
Honestly though, and I'm genuinely not trying to be mean, but if you have not researched enough to know what version of trh Note 9 you have, or the differences in the versions of the Note 9 or consequences of flashing the wrong firmware, then playing around ODIN is not for you. You need to do some reading and research before you irreversibly brick your thousand dollar phone.
I too have an Xfinity phone and these are the steps I took.

I'm thinking about trying out the Pie Beta and wanted to try this.
It looks like you're using odin to flash the phone to a firmware thats compatible with the beta update, and than using the traditional update method to actually update to Pie.
I'm really nervous about doing this since I can't find original versions of my firmware (Meaning I can't go back), did everything still work for you? My understanding is that the feature you might lose is Wifi calling, which is an important reason why Xfinitity is so much cheaper.
If you download and run Phone INFO by *Samsung* (Not quotes, stars), does it say your CSC code is CCT?
Thanks

Wifi calling is working for me on the CRL9. Yes Xfinity phone are CCT.
Here is the link for the only CCT firmware I have found: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note9/SM-N960U/CCT/
It will update a few times if you have to revert back.

Got the OTA today and the size is 1.6 GB, whereas, the download here is close to 4 GB. Why the difference?
Which security patch does this have?
