T-Mobile just released the Android 10 update for their variant of the OnePlus 6T. Maybe now we can finally figure out how to resolve the Google Pay issue that most of us who converted to the international version are having.
https://www.t-mobile.com/support/devices/android/oneplus-6t/software-updates-oneplus-6t
I just grabbed this update!
Nice! Thanks for letting us know. I am going to flash over to the international ROM now and see if G-Pay works. Maybe do it later.
Edit: It didint. But G-Pay seems to be fine on T-Mobile ROM as well as Netflix, etc. I also noted that they only force the T-Mobile app on the phone now. I think they did away with putting the Visual voice Mail and the Unlock app in the system partition. I dont know for sure.

I have T-Mobile converted to intl. , 10.0.3.1. I deleted data for google play and google play services but the phone is still showed as not certified.
Maybe I need a full reset, not sure. I thought that when T-Mobile will certify their version with google, all should be fine automatically. Seems I was wrong

Great question - I hope T-Mobile users will answer this asap
I've done the same thing: I wiped Google Pay, Google Play Services, Play Store and Google Framework Services but nothing changed. My device is still uncertified. And before anyone asks, my bootloader is still locked. I have not rooted.
I am going back to T-Mobile 9 and going through the upgrade ritual. This is what I have been waiting for.

Use the T-Mobile MSM tool to revert back to 9.0.13, then after returning to T-Mobile, update the security update to Nov. After that 10.3 will be in you next system update.

I have no idea, but my bet is no.
Has anybody tried going back to international version after getting A10 in Tmo ROM? And if yes, how is Google pay and the whole certification thing? I'd really like to stay international..
I see no value in running international other than quicker security update. T-Mobile 10.3 is buttery smooth.
I'm not sure what issue you guys are running in to. I'm running a tmo convert on international with 10.3.1, Google pay working, play store certified, safety net checked. Are you guys not using magisk?
I reverted to T-Mobile, can't say I noticed decreased battery life when I switched to global ROM, but I see a huge increase in battery life switching back to T-Mobile. At end of work day 60% left vice usual 40%. Small sample of two days but I'll take it.
I have converted to international. At present, running v9.0.17. How can I revert to T-Mobile? If I run the MSM tool it complains that images don't match.

AT&T hasn't yet rolled out the OTA, but if you flash without the USERDATA_Tmb , all you do after that do a factory reset and all AT&T features, apps , wifi calling, HD voice , LTE all that will be on your Note 9 with no issues, i do it all the time.

If you purchased from T-Mobile US:
See if the in-store agents can help you cancel the order.
If they cannot help you with that,call customer care (611) to see if they will cancel the order.
The following says you can also just refuse delivery:
https://www.t-mobile.com/templates/popup.aspx?passet=ftr_ftr_returnpolicy
However,that's kinda hard to do with UPS,my experience with them is they simply drop off the package,regardless of shipping method/instructions,without so much as a signature.
Bring this point up to the Customer Care team & stress the reason (prolonged delay/pre-order period,I'm assuming),hopefully they'll be able to stop the order before it goes out.

The BETA is only available for N960U1 models. If you have the T-Mobile branded Note 9, then you have a N960U.
A way around that is to use ODIN to flash the N960U1 firmware. Then the beta should be available to you.
I currently have an ATT N960U, running the N960U1 firmware, on T-Mobile and I got the beta notification earlier today and signed up.
Even if you don't get into the beta program. You can still get the beta OTAs from firmware.science. You'll still need to ODIN the U1 firmware, of course.
My Samsung+ is white background and is not offering me the beta. Unlocked device bought straight from Samsung / Verizon SIM.
Edit: Install the beta Samsung+ apk from here https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...msung-11-2-3-0-android-apk-download/download/ and then it will offer it to you

No. This is NOT for U firmware. And it's not even for ARJ7. You need to use ODIN to flash the ARJ9 build for the U1. N960U1SQU1AEJ9. Then either sign up for the beta through the Samsung+ app, or download the update from firmware.science.
Also it doesn't matter if you're carrier locked or not. And yes U1 will work just fine with ATT, but you'll lose WiFo calling and VoLTE.

I was able to get AT&T wifi calling and volte, messages sync, etc. working in my AT&T N960U on U1 firmware by simply flashing the ATT ARJ7 CSC. The only issue here is that you will lose software updates on the device, they will all need to be downloaded and flashed manually in recovery as an OTA update zip.

Like you said it breaks updates, and it would probably jack up the beta as well.
If I open Spotify (or Amazon music) and start playing music and then put the phone down, when I pick it up and try turning the screen back on it doesn't work, just restarts. Even if I don't press the power button and just turn it on with the lift to wake feature the same thing happens. The Iris scanner light turns on and off a few times like it's trying to work normally but doesn't actually. I sent in the system logs with the Samsung members app, any ideas how to fix it?*
I'm on the newest pie beta on the Unlocked us version.
Turning off lift to wake doesn't help.
What did they do Location options ?
In Oreo or prior one could use just the device GPS for location accuracy. I think that option is no longer available? It appears to be just either On or Off. Nothing in between.

The 160+ page thread called "Note 9 Pie Alpha/Beta."
If you want the U1 firmware beta straight from Samsung, then you need to be on ARJ9 for the U1. Then sign up for the beta through the Samsung+ app.

Of course you do. You have to be on ARJ9 for the U1 before you can get the beta. It's only for U.
For your convenience, this is the official OTA update for the U.S. Snapdragon SM-N960U. If you can't wait for the Official Android 9 Pie OTA to hit your device/carrier then this is what you're looking for. It is universal for all U.S. carriers as Samsung has streamlined their Galaxy firmware across the U.S. carriers/variant. The only difference in the new firmware is the CSC relevant to each specific carrier. Your carrier SIM will determine which network configs and factory installed carrier apps will be preinstalled on first boot.
This specific OTA update .zip REQUIRES that your phone be on the latest Oreo firmware N960USQU1ARL1
If you're not already running the latest carrier firmware Oreo 8.1 (N960USQU1ARL1) just check software update in settings and let it update to N960USQU1ARL1. You can also download it from HERE and flash it via Odin. I strongly recommend a factory data reset BEFORE you Odin firmware for best results.
***Note this is the carrier firmware. If you want the non-carrier "bloat-free" firmware this is NOT it***
If you need more detailed install instructions visit this helpful thread.
Please thank the guys over at https://firmware.science/ for providing these EARLY releases as they are the ones making this possible.

Samsung removed this feature for some reason. I liked this feature too. Samsung seems to have taken a few steps backwards with the release of One UI.

Only question I have is how do you open the recent apps from the home screen when you have the navbar hidden and are using gestures. Also swipe up for Samsung pay is enabled.
Never mind figured it out lol. Just can't swipe up to bring up Google assistant. Might have to disable Samsung pay swipe up feature to unlock that area.

I'm on a spectrum device the 960U and was just wondering you guys who did update how are you liking it? And if anybody is using the BX actions It's a Bixby button remapper and if you had to uninstall it 1st or anything I'm just dumb not updating until I'm sure!

Mobile Odin no hiccups?
Nope, just moved to SD, booted into recovery and update from SD. No Odin required since it's an official update
It would be helpful to know if it is possible to root and install twrp on the latest firmware (sept 1st security update - pie) or if something changed to make the method described here incompatible. I have a 950F exynos with vietnam csc. I rooted both my Note 2 and Note 4, so i have some experience with rooting.
I am ready to root now as i want to install mods to improve the camera, but don't want to face a nightmare of a boot loop and ending up having to reinstall everything and still have no root, no twrp, or a bricked phone. I posted on the root thread but it seems dead. Can anyone with similar firmware who has recently rooted successfully shed light on the status of the root method? I'm on N950XXXS7DSHC. Thanks!
I have no problems at all with mine. N950F (Same as yours) converted to T-Mobile US N950U basically. While still having unlocked sim (Unlocked for any carrier), No bloatware and I did not do any camera mods. I have hads every note from the Note 3 to Note 9. So i have no issues with the stock camera. Only i changed was my CSC so i can get video calling, Caller ID etc. Still stock firmware 9.0, Don't care about Spay (Use google pay if i had to) and that's pretty much it. If you do root good luck.
Thanks for the response. Did you first root on the update i mentioned? In the root thread i read comments from people trying to root the first time after recent updates who got problems, boot loops. My question is to know if these updates change the root situation. When did you root your phone?

Yes it does, I had a S8 that was a U1 and It was snapdragon. And from what I've read the software isn't interchangeable.

Yeh its not interchangeable. They may look the same, but software wise, they are 2 very different phones.

Sorry for the late response guys. I did not convert my phone from a n950f to n950u. It still is a n950f exynos version not the Snapdragon one. only thing I have in the phone that is modified and I guess I'm the one reason I rooted the phone is so I can have the T-Mobile firmware on there cause I use MetroPCS (T-Mobile mvno). I still have two dual SIM function and I still have the international unlocked version compared to the US version where you have to get it unlocked or you have to pay to unlock or whichever. If that explains it.

"if I didn't root or modified a phone I wouldn't be able to get it to work on MetroPCS or T-Mobile hundred percent correctly like I wanted it to. I could of left it how it came (stock) but I had to in a way root it to get past certain things anyways. And at the end of the day I don't mind a rooted or modified phone.

The question I have is how did you do this? Also I am on cricket which is a at&t mvno and I want to be on there firmware, mine says that it is from uae and everything even Bixby is in European so weather is spoken in C° not F°. There are other stuff that irritates me.

I changed the CSC to T-Mobile. So I can have things like video calling (Kinda buggy sometimes), VoLTE (Which works just like a Metro phone (HD sometimes HD+), And my boot logo is T-Mo. Why do you wanna be on there firmware? You have to search up the CSC for AT&T so you turn your UAE phone into a US in a way. Why don't you just go into the weather app or bixby and switch to Fahrenheit (You know you can do that)

Please excuse my persistence or lack of understanding but I'm not clear on your answer to the question I raised originally. You say your phone is the same as mine but not explicitly that you rooted after updating to the same firmware I'm running (N950XXXS7DSHC). I do know it was possible to root from earlier firmwares. If I hadn't updated and read anecdotal reports of serious problems trying to do it from the current firmware, I would have rooted my phone right away.
I know also that people make mistakes in rooting frequently, so reports of problems are not evidence that the root method doesn't work. Even with serious problems, there are often workarounds. The problem is the Dr. Ketan root thread seems inactive, so the last comments there all report problems that weren't answered, nor was my own question that I also posted there. I would just like confirmation from anyone who has rooted after updating to the current firmware. Did you root your phone on N950XXXS7DSHC? Sorry again if you thought you answered that.
Good question. Sorry
@Dumbo53 I was also looking for advice about this, but since no one seemed to really be giving a clear answer, I went with this. It's basically stock without all the issues of a custom ROM, while still having root. I wasn't willing to risk updating and not being able to root on the latest, so this was a good compromise.
As the title suggests, I haven't been able to find anything just tmoble
From what i understood while helping a few snapdragon users, AT&T firmware handling is done through them and not Samsung. Considering how snapdragon is a month or two slower on releases to Exynos, with AT&T you seem to get another layer of delay.
Nevertheless, you can always flash the Unlocked (SM-N960U1 XAA) firmware to it, but i would assume you'd lose a few AT&T features specific to their CSC.
Have been looking for any US based version of the update and still nothing yet. Hope we see something soon. I will be honest I want wireless DeX.
Weirdly, AT&T got 2.5 yesterday, before the unlocked one.

No SM-N9600 has got One UI 2.5 yet. The latest one is TGY (Hong Kong) ETJ5, but that's still One UI 2.1. We still have to wait for a FXXX firmware.
I'm on Spectrum and this is the latest in the month I've gone without an update. Im guessing there was a bug in first build, maybe thats why the release of the 2nd and the delay?
Have just used Odin to install the Sprint firmware on my Xfinity Mobile phone, install went smooth as silk, even Good Lock wasn't knocked out.
