Question Note20 Ultra N9860 - Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

I need help please! My phone broke so I bought an unlocked Note20 Ultra. I have been trying to get it to connect to the network and it will not. I am not well versed in all of this clearly. I didnt even know there were all these different models. I live in the US and was trying to get it to work on AT&T. After researching I found it is a N9860. Do I need to send it back or is there anything I can do?

This is the Samsung S21 Ultra forum. You might find answers in the Note 20 forum here https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/samsung-galaxy-note-20-questions-answers.11099/

Samsung Pay and Purchasing Country

Hi All,
Apologies for what might seem as a stupid question but I had bad experience with the FE not working after being purchased.
If I bought the dual Sim Note 9 from the UK will Samsung pay be working in the UAE or not. If yes, Do I need to flash to make it work or it will just do.
Thank you very much in advance.

Question S21 Ultra from USA - Using Wifi Calling/VoLTE in Canada with Rogers

Hey,
Purchased my S21 Ultra in the USA, and I am unable to use wifi calling/volte/text messages dont show as delivered/read.
Anyway to fix this? Rogers says they cant do anything.
best guess would be to look at flashing the rogers rom/csc.

This is complicated and with Rogers perhaps no luck. Look at these two threads:
[Samsung USA] Samsung USA S21 Trade-In Deal Thread - Page 17 - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
[Samsung] S21 Series Pre-order: Free Buds & SmartTag, $200 Minimum Trade In, 10% Off with Perkopolis or SPC - Page 57 - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
Do a search on each of these threads for CSC. Not so easy but perhaps workable.

Question Shipping from Samsung_US to Canada (Unlocked version) /any possible method?

Hello everyone,
Could you help me answering my questions?
I'm planning to buy Samsung S21 Ultra, so I was searching for good prices here and there...
I found out that on Samsung US, it is much cheaper (Unlocked version), moreover, you'll get 250$ credit value to buy other accessories, while Samsung Canada is way too expensive without such promotions!
I tried to place the order through Samsung US and to type the shipping address to Canada .m.but unfortunately it wasn't working!
My two questions as following:
1- Is there anyway to get the S21 Ultra to Canada from Samsung US?
2- I heard that I might face problems in connection compatibility (even with the unlocked version), especially the 5G as it won't be compatible with the Canadian courriers ....so is that true? Will I face any problem if I buy S21 Ultra from Samsung US to Canada?
Will appreciate your replies ...
Thanks
Depending on your carrier in Canada, Wifi Calling and VoLTE may not/will not work. Here is a long thread about purchasing from the US etc. This will answer all your questions:
[Samsung USA] Samsung USA S21 Trade-In Deal Thread - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
i have the W version with the US U1 software on it (I love ODIN) and works it great on Telus for 5G (except the Wi-Fi calling; Telus asks for your number and then it never connects but I also have a partner account so maybe that is why). On Freedom Mobile/Shaw Mobile with the U1 software, everything works (except 5G as that is not available for everyone yet).
Thanks
May I know which re-shipping company had you dealt with? Any recommendations?

Question Question on unlocked S21 Ultra 5g bought from Samsung

So here's my question. I was waiting for the T-Mobile version of the s21 ultra to be in stock in the 256gig version, but it seems like that is taking too long so I had purchased the unlocked version. Yesterday when I went into the T-Mobile store, I was told that it wouldn't be able to pick up 5g and a lot of the phone itself wouldn't be compatible. Does anyone know if this is true? Sorry I know I sound like a Noob because I am, but I'm just a bit worried. If that's the case I see about people flashing stuff. Would it be possible to flash say the T-Mobile stuff to the unlocked phone so it would work? Sorry for writing a book, just wanted to be thorough. Appreciate any feed back or answers.

They either lied to try and sell you a T-mobile version or they don't know what they are talking about. The US unlocked model works well with all the US carriers and has no issues picking up 5G and even supports WiFi calling.

Thanks a lot for responding with that info. I appreciate it.
I have TMobile and an unlocked s21 ultra. They work perfectly together. No issues whatsoever with 5g.

Dude that's awesome, I'm feeling way better about my purchase. Thank you for replying and letting me know. I appreciate it.
I have a S21 Ultra unlocked and carrier is TMobile, no problem so far.
T-Mobile has the least number of issues if you bring-your-own-device. It's Verizon that's a real PITA.
I'm grateful for everyone posting and sharing their experiences and uses. Thank you to everyone. Appreciate it.
Go to a different store. They lied to you. I bought mine from Amazon, it's the unlocked 128gb version, (the 256gb wasn't in stock during the sale. They both priced the same) and it works without a problem. T Mobile 5G works really good on it.
I'm getting 5G via T-Mobile on my unlocked S21 Ultra direct from Samsung. That shady store or salesperson straight up lied to you, they are ignorant about unlocked devices, or both.
I want to change IMEI of Samsung galaxy s21 ultra 5g
Changing of imei is illegal in most countries (if not all). You will not get any help with that on XDA...
As others have said, this isnt true.
One thing that is (ior certainly was a couple of years ago) was that Three didnt allow non three branded handsets to connect to their 800MHz supervoice service, which IME made a huge difference in the LTE days

Question Help in buying the right model of Refurbished S21 Ultra from Amazon US

Hey guys, I will be visiting US for a few days in Jan 2nd week and was keen on buying a renewed/refurbished Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra from Amazon US.
