Hi, I flashed my Verizon S21 Ultra to be unlocked. It was mainly to get rid of bloatware and not have to wait for Verizon to push updates, model number is now G998U1.
I then saw that the One UI 5 beta was available for unlocked variants but it doesn't seem to be available on Samsung Members. Any work around for this? Preferably something that doesn't reset my phone.
If you're on CVHB you can flash this beta 1. It's the only one available. You have to adb sidelaod

I have an unlocked Note 9, and I'd like to update to the official Android Pie but it looks like it won't be released until all the carriers have released their updates? Is that accurate?
Also, I do have AT&T service but I also have the Samsung Upgrade program, so if I flash the AT&T ROM for Android Pie onto my Unlocked Note 9, would my device no longer be eligible for an upgrade?
Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks!
Hi, I haven't checked in here much since I first got my phone and followed the guides to update & root etc. It seems fairly quiet in here, guess it wasn't one of the massively popular phones.
My phone is currently running this firmware, but am I able to install newer versions from this list, which all match my phone's BTU code? (Also is there a best guide for updating a rooted phone?)
The other thing is the One UI 3.0 update, the old announcements mention S10 series phones getting it, and specifically include the S10 5G. All the recent beta files that have been made available and announced release dates for the official release version mention the other S10 models but not the 5G. Any ideas, anyone heard anything? Anyone officially signed up for betas and know they actually exist?
Cheers!
Hi,
I have checked this link below and currently for G998U, Android 12 is not listed there yet. Can I flash other firmware from different phone model to my phone with Odin?
Samsung Android 12 Tracker: Here are all the official One UI 4.0 stable and beta builds to download and install
One UI 4 beta builds based on Android 12 have begun rolling out to multiple Samsung Galaxy devices. Head on over for the download links!

No.
I flashed the Official today on my 998U1, the TMB release. Worked like a dream except the Verizon bloat and no Samsung cloud restore. Oh well. Remove bloat and restore manually your apps, and POOF! Android 12 One UI 4.

Hi mate just saw the firmware now available but has a different CSC. Can I flash them over?
Yes.
its been a few years since i modded a phone. i recently got my hands on a used samsung galaxy note 8 {factory unlocked/no carrier} with a snapdragon processor.
model # SM-N950U1
Im searching around this forum but most of the info is for exynos processors.
i need to unlock the bootloader and root so that i can install
LineageOS 19.1.how can i do this?
The snapdragon version is called the "greatqlte". You can root it via twrp, but I'm not sure about custom rom support, and definitely not lineage19.1.
The snapdragon version has basically no support on xda. Someone posted a question similar to yours a while back.
too bad , its still a good phone, whats the highest version of android i can install ?
I don't think there are any roms.. I think I saw an oreo one, but you're probably better off sticking to oneui on android 9, which is stable (unlike the oreo build).
You can still root and debloat/customise your phone via magisk modules etc.
Hello everyone,
Have Samsung Galaxy S10 [SM-G973F] for 2 years, being very satisfied. It came with One UI 2.5 | Android 10 | G973FXXS9DTI8.
I did not upgrade, staying on the version as it came. Android 10 performs well for me.
Recently bought another one, a Dual SIM version ... Galaxy S10 [SM-G973F/DS]. This one came however with preinstalled One UI 4.1 | Android 12 | G973FXXUFHVE1.
I want to get the second one on the same version of the Android 10.
Checked with CPU-Z the specs, both are on the same Exynos CPU, both devices have the same Release date 01.03.2019.
From reading forums / tutorials / guides etc. for some days now I am aware, that it is not the easiest thing I want to achieve, on the other hand my understanding is that it is doable.
I am looking for a senior well experienced advisor for this task.
I am also aware, that the risk is at the end still on my side.
Some fair remuneration for such support is to be expected.
Feel free to reply here or PM me, whatever is the preference.
Looking forward for your support / feedback.
You will not downgrade the original firmware version in Samsung because of the BIT.
Lowering the stock firmware version locks the bootloader. There is no chance to lower the bootloader version to be able to flash official android 10 when the phone had firmware with higher BIT than that of android 10.
You can try to get rid of the official firmware and flash hadesRom Q Stock v2.0 for Exynos with consistency as described in the thread:
knox related features won't work (Samsung Pay, Pass, Secure Folder etc.)
However, it is not known whether this is possible, as neither the author of the thread nor anyone else has answered the question on this issue.
