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.

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...
So I purchased a Galaxy Note 8 from Hong Kong (dual sim model - N9500 Snapdragon) - I know everything will work fine if I use it in Australia, just that some region specific stuff like Samsung Pay will be locked to Hong Kong.
Is it possible for me to flash an Australian rom from SamMobile(is it N950F?) over the HK rom? I know about how Bootloader v3 will prevent people from doing this, but as far as I know I'm still on bootloader v2 (N9500ZHU2BRA2 is my current rom build)
Is yours the Snapdragon or exynos processor?
Australia Note 8 is the N950F exynos processor,flashing that on a snapdragon will brick your phone...

Ah I see. I have the Snapdragon version. Is there a way around it then?
I heard Samsung Pay will still work, just that all the promotions will be stuck with your phone region
Not stock rom, no...
If you try you WILL end up with a brick.

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!
