Note 9 Versions + Encryption - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Dear XDA,
I am currently on Note 4 and looking to buy a Note 9 here in the UK.
Please can you advise what different Note 9 Versions there are (SM-N90... etc) and potentially how to know what one you might be buying on ebay before you bid? I see there are different storage size options and also a dual SIM version. I am also assuming the standard versions will have more ROMs available?
Also is device encryption working with any custom ROMs? That is one issue I have with my note 4, it's hard to use device encryption on custom ROMs.
I really wish the screen wasn't curved and the battery was removable but I guess I will just have to get used to the **** fashion of the day as I can't see a flat note 10 anytime soon!

Note 5 OR Note 5 edge ?

As Note 5 is around corner and many users always prefer to follow their favorite developer to get developmental support. We know Note4 have almost no support here but looking to S 6 edge success things may be different on note 5.
So request here users and developers to cast their vote
Would you like to go with Note 5 OR Note 5 Edge?
Note 5 Edge? Haven't heard about this one so far.
It will be clear tomorrow (i am not wrong tomorrow is N5 unpacked event) BTW google search reveals many pictures of N5 edge.

Waiting for the S7/Note 6; I really want to see how Samsung's custom core SoC performs. Btw you should probably add "none of the above" to the survey.
The GS6 Edge PLUS WOULD be cool, but I keep seeing it has Qualcomm 808. Not sure why Samsung would downgrade, but if they did, I'll get Note 5 with 7422. Now if Samsung got all Apple on us, and use the 7420 in the Note, ill look at the Moto X or maybe the Nexus by Huawei on principle. Making the Note just a bigger Galaxy with spen is like Apple and their "s" releases.

Note 4/here until something better comes out because N5 and edge aren't it.
No microsd = Note None!
Well, there are different Edge concepts out there. The Note 4 Edge and the S6 Edge. Even if it's less functional I prefer the S6 Edge for aesthetic reasons. Would I buy it? Don't think so.
Note 5, if it has a higher battery or a better backup

After owning Note 4........I would wait for something better, maybe other brands. Too many issues with Samsung:
- Bloated TWiz
- WTF Knox fuse warrenty
- extremely delayed s/w upgrades
- don't add features to old models, e.g. theme support in note 4
- No removable battery going forward
- No SD card support going forward
- probaly lot more which I can't think of now..
neither
Me neither, gonna stay with my Note 4. Can't miss my removable battery and SD slot.
Maybe it's getting time to let go of samsung and try some other flavors.
Waiting until this afternoon to make my decision. If there is no 4100mAh battery and no MicroSD then neither.
Nexus 6
Let's wait and see which markets the Note 5 will be available at... We may be surprised.
http://www.engadget.com/2015/08/13/samsung-galaxy-note-5-hands-on-preview/
So we basically knew everything already. Sigh, let's hope the note 6 fares better next year. No MicroSD, no swappable battery, no 128Gb version, only 3000mAh battery, etc. This is beyond disappointing.
Bye bye samsung ! No Micro SD, no Battery replacement, no update, Knox fuser !
I'am out !
LOL.
Note 5 has max 64 gb storage. No 128 option xD

Which Note 5 Version should I buy?

Dear All
Thank for your reading. I am planning to buy Note 5. I am living in Vietnam and our Market sell so much Note 5 Version
SM-N920C (official distribution)
SM-N920I
SM-N9200
SM-N9208
SM-N920P/V/T...
I wanna the version can be root (unlock bootloader) as well as use more Customs Rom on XDA as much as possible ! pls help to give me your valued recommend
I was going to ask the same question (now that Note 7 is dead), so far what I saw from XDA is C and I models more popular, but again seems like most of custom ROMs seem like based on Android 5.0.2.
Another thing that confusing, there's even custom Kernel, however, nowhere I found that it will work for different phone carriers nor different regions
I would say Sammy's International variants are better for ROMs/Modding etc.
So the 920C seems the right choice. That's what I got anyways.
Does the 920C work on the att network in the states?

since Note 7 dead, I am looking into buy one SM-N920C, too bad that version only comes with 32GB, instead of 64GB (att, t-mobile versions)

well, almost impossible to find 64gb version in USA, the ones I found ebay they asking like crazy money...
Has the Note 5 been discontinued?
In South Africa it seems that stock is running low? GSMarena says "Status = available". My Note 4 got stolen and I don't know whether to wait and hope that Samsung will do the sensible thing and produce the Note 5 in a 128gig version or to go out and reluctantly buy the Note 5 64gig.
Bought my Note 4 after the Note 5 was released because a micro sd slot is non-negotionable but now I am stuck.
Love the Note functionality, also have a Note 8 and 12.2.
Anyone with some inside knowledge?

Yeah the 64gb has some demand, esp after the Note 7 thing.
What about getting a high-quality used one from a verified seller/retailer?
I got one from a reputed store in near perfect condition and a fantastic price. It cost me less than what people were listing it for in the local classifieds.

Production has obviously stopped a long time ago for the Note 5.
What you find now are older stock that didn't sell or were ordered late into production.
I doubt a 128gb version will be produced since Sammy will have to restart an older line. It would cost more than continuing the S7 line (as they doing now).
Why note try the S7/Edge. It's a new design with micro-SD expansion.

well, S7 Edge is expensive, that's why...also I am more "note" guy, so since Note 7 now dead, only option I have is last year's Note 5, of course, giving a sec thought and debating if I really need to get Note 5 or move on to others. If I get Note 5, at least get N920C with 64GB (since it does not have micro-SD), so finding N920C with 64GB is quite challenging (the one I found ebay asking like crazy price), and as you said they stopped production of 64GB version way before 32GB, I guess that's explains why there are plenty of 32gb version out there than 64GB.
I have reserved a Note 5 64gb, will pick it up tomorrow or Wednesday. Sad but probably true that Samsung won't release a 128gb version. I am sure, there are many who would still go crazy for a 128gb Note 5!
If you use the Note functionality there is unfortunately nothing that comes close to the Note range! Still using my Note 8 daily even when I had the Note 4.
The impression I got from Samsung today was that they will continue to produce the Note 5 now that the Note 7 has been discontinued.

What I did with the LG G3 (T-Mo 32gb version) was use an OTG USB for backup until MM broke it, then I just did a PC-backup of all data as soon as storage reached 80%. :
It might seem cumbersome, but I only had to do it thrice in 5 months. Not bad imo.

Planning to buy a Galaxy Note 4 in 2016?

hey guys, i need some of your help, i will buy a note 4 in these days, is still worth buying?
If yes, what model? the snapdragon quadcore or the exynos octacore? which of them have more development for stable roms like a note 7 port to the note 4?
Please i need your opinions, thank you
Won't recommend it this late, especially when the likes of OnePlus 3 is out there, sorry. Also there is HTC 10. The only reason you should get the Note 4 is if you are getting it at a really low price. I love my Note 4, but a phone running TouchWiz, well it still runs TouchWiz. But if S Pen is a mandatory thing to you then you can't go anywhere else except the Note 4, that's true too.
Exynos all the way, if you don't wish for them AOSP based ROMs.
I don't agree, this is my fourth Note 4. Thought I could replace it with LG G4, no way. Thougth I could replace it with Oneplus 3, no way. Yeah, The OP3 is snappier, but thats it, everything else is better on Note 4.

I voted yes. I actually just ordered one yesterday, Due to arrive tomorrow. I was between a rock and a hard place when I made my decision. Seeing as the new notes all have a lot of nice features and speed improvement. The reason I decided on the note 4 is of course the note features as compared to other things like the lg g4 the oneplus etc. And my second biggest reason is that it's the last of the note series to have svlte. Meaning if i'm at a store and someone calls me I can still use data without needing wifi. All newer phones "at least on verizon" do not allow this unless you have volte I think. Problem is I use all my phones on prepaid and verizon won't allow prepaid users to use advanced calling. So if you're on verizon prepaid then the note 4 is for you. If you're on contract or just don't care about svlte then I say get a newer note. note 5 major drawbacks to me. no svlte. no sd card. no removable battery. note 7 drawbacks. no removeable battery and still very expensive.

I agree, the only reason why i dont choose the note 5 over the note 4 is for the sd card slot, and i dont get the note 7 becouse it is too way expensive.
I would choose the OP3 over the note 4 of course, but it doesnt have sd card slot, and there is only a variant of 64 gb
And i dont buy phones with mobile contract lol
Ohh and another question, which is the variant tag of the note 4 exynos octacore?
I've had my N910C for about a year now and it's probably the best device I've ever had. I got it shortly last year after the SGS6 series was released and when the specs of the Note 5 were announced. If I do end up upgrading it will probably be to a Note 7 as Note 4 are now very hard to find in brand new condition.

C and U are the tags which stated that you have a Exynos 5433 Octocore device.
I recently bought a refurb TMo Note 4 that went for cheap to use as a backup phone to my Nexus 6P. The last Samsung phone I had was a S4 and I was disillusioned with Samsung since the S3 and very critical of their software, so I only used Motorola and Nexus since. I have opened many phones brands to see their internals including Huawei, HTC, Motorola, ZTE, Samsung and Apple. I'm never impressed with Samsung internal build quality including this Note 4, which I think is cheap considering how much it cost during release. (My opinion, you don't have to get offended.)
I didn't expected to like the S-Pen features so much, along with multitask and pop out feature. This is pretty important to me, to be able watch a video while doing something else at the same time. I can do this with third party apps on the Nexus, I like the fact it's built in for the Note. With Root, Adaway, Nova Launcher, XPosed (reluctantly) the phone is pretty smooth and while not super snappy as my Nexus 6P, it certainly isn't slow. Another important Samsung feature I like is the Game Tuner and this pretty much eliminate the performance issue since I can play games at 720p/1080p and get good framerates. Again I can lower the screen res on my Nexus as well, except this is built in and it only affect selected apps which is much more convenient. Basically, the Note have all the features I wanted built in that I would have to go through extra steps to make available on my Nexus. Did I mentioned removable battery, sdcard and IR blaster?
The only downside for the phone is the finger print scanner is crap, but Smart Unlock works for me so it's not a problem. Other minor issue is the GPS sucks, I had to open up the phone which scared me a bit actually, but I managed to bend that GPS gold contact point upward a bit, now the signal is great.
So I sold the 6P to pay some bills and using the Note 4 as my daily driver. I think the whole Note 7 recall might work in my favor if it cause the phone price to go down faster, then I might upgrade to the Note 7 rather than getting the the new Google Pixel phone.
I forget to mention T-Mobile WiFi Calling works perfectly and stays connected all the time with this phone, a huge deal. For whatever reason it's always disconnect on the Nexus 6P and with Android 7 update it got worse.

Disagree, I recently bought 2x Note 4's for around 260€ a piece plus shipping and both are as new! So if you look around carefully you can find them for a reasonable price in as new condition...
Looking at ebay.de/co.uk and you will find good examples.
I would even go further that if they have some minor scratches on the frame, go and buy yourself a new frame. Replacing the frame is easy as is replacing the display assy...

Hi there,
I voted "YES" too.
I have one already (one Month old) and two more for the rest of the family coming this way. Why you may ask?
I need the S-Pen features, I wan't to be able to replace the battery (switch it in 2 min and 100% battery again), I'm using the SM-N9100 dual sim together with the MicroSD card (can't do that with Note 5 or Note7).
Finally the main reason (Price), I have friends in China that can buy it at 280€ , although locked to China SIM's but with a 10min call (using China SIM) and no problem at all using other Region SIM's ever.
It has a CHC rom (China and English) but using ODIN we can easily load the TGY Multi Language ROM with Gapps (Stock) and not triggering the KNOX warranty flag...
PS: The only downside points (by choosing the DualSIM N9100 version) are :
- The lack or Custom Roms (for example 6.0.1 not yet available "officially" in the TGY variant, maybe a few weeks from now since the CHC is "Finally" out).
- Smaller battery (3000 vs 3220).
- Less storage (16GB vs 32GB).
- Only Snapdragon, no Exynos option for dual sim.
- No FDD LTE band 20, but on the plus side we do have more bands for TDD side (traveling).
but unfortunately I really need the "DualSIM" feature .
PS: In China I saw the non-dual sim version at a even lower price (250€). Imagine buying three units at the same cost of the latest Note7. Can't beat the features/price ratio, especially packed with a amazing 5.7 inch 2K super Amoled screen . And I'm not talking about Refurbishing units.
Thanks,
Regards,

Depends ... the note 4 has a fine hardware, but the software (espacially updates) sucks. The note 4 is the first smartphone I never would get again. Don't get me wrong - really, the hardware is awesome, but the software (even with alternative) is just so bad. I came from a google nexus 2 years back and will get a nexus again.
Also I guess the note 4 won't get any more software updates, after the note 5 and 7 are out by now. I would suggest you wait till google releases their new nexus / pixel phones and look at the 6p then. My wife has the nexus 6p and I'm quite jealous - all that what I wanted the note 4 to be if you dont calc in the missing pen. Even the cam is better then the note 4 IMHO. And it will drop in price then.
Oh, and for what I don't like about the software ... it's slow and hangs from time to time. Also some Apps from Samsung are just bad like SVoice ... google now is much better in comparsion. If you ever used a pure android, you know what I mean. Also the additional apps like FB are something I don't want. Then there's the problem with the knox triggering when rooting (could result in a warranty dismissal) and so on. Or some random restarts with stock firmware (right now stock DBT snapdragon). Or the really bad finger print sensor. The Pen stuff is awesome and the OCR works like magic. But I use it quite rarely so it doesn't outweigh the cons.
Also I couldn't find any alternative rom that was working for me (too much stuff in it, too slow, to instabile, you name it) or with cm the health sensors not working and some other samsung stuff.
And to be a bit more clear, after I had some other samsung devices in my hands ... never again a samsung for me personally. Only the best phones get updates for more then like 6 months and new features don't reach the phones ever. Also it seems like there are 20 software engineering camps withing samsung, all working against each other...
But really, this is my personal, strong subjective feeling about the phone - if you like it or not, depends on how it works for you. For me there are too many things that anger me, mostly small things like I mentioned above. Might be it's different for you. Read some more reviews on amazon, even the bad ones.
You could set your priorities and then decide, OP.
Hardware: Note 4 is still decent, but much newer chipset and better chipset are out there.
Software: As far as TouchWiz goes, no comment there. But with a little bit of tweaking (by choosing performance over battery) you could the nice enough performance. But never to the level of HTC 10 and OnePlus 3. Read Anand's review of Note 7 and see the section where they compared the frame rates with HTC 10. TouchWiz lags mate, its as simple as that.
Camera + Display: Display is excellent, and camera is decent enough too.
S Pen: No competition there, again.
Build: Note 4 is the very LAST phone in Samsung's lineup where Samsung used practical materials to come up with a mobile phone. Now all of them are jewellery.
Price: Like I said in my previous comment, if you could get it at good price, which is somewhere around 25-30% lower than OnePlus 3's then "maybe" you could get it.
The note 4 is still a great device I still have my tmo 910t device i just ordered the 910c for exynos which is a little snappier than the snapdragon all the devices in my sig. i still own and use but for a few. I haven't added another note 5c and s6 edge plus to my sig yet. But the note 4 will keep up with those other devices for the age. if you want a loud ringing phone note 4 is it.. The note 5 isnt as loud as the note 4 or the note 3 for that matter..
I currently have a Note 4 on the Verizon network.. Plus it is snapper than most, plus it can handle anything I throw at it app wise.. Never over heats or crahses.. The Note 5 and seven both have none removal batteries, and that is a draw back for me.. Plus it still has volte, and the newer ones do not.. I also have the Droid Turbo on Verizon.. What I do not like, is before I installed a custom rom, the battery would drain, and constantly needed to be charge.. Plus it would over heat a lot and freeze.. I would consider another Note 4 if I needed one.. But when the Note 4 is payed off, I plan on getting any Samsung device or another brand all together.. It will depend on price, and development..

will u upgrade to note 9?

Hi, note 9 is out. As a note 8 users, will u upgrade to note 9? What make u upgrade?
I haven't decide whether upgrade or not, but j really like the new dex and the big storage.
How about u guys?
For me , I do like the extra storage and the larger battery on the note 9 but I do not think it worth the extra money that I have to pay , my note 8 is still preforming great and the battery gets me the whole day . The other features are nice but I'm not going to use them anyway ( Remote S-pen + Dex )
I'm getting the note 9 because of the 512gb storage and 8gb ram and the extra battery power. Hopefully i won't upgrade when the next one comes out. Now i have to get rid of my 256gb note 8 which still performing great.

Not me...my note 8 still works perfectly. The upgrades on the Note 9 are nice but not major enough to make me go through the hassle of selling my Note 8 and losing money on it, buying the Note 9 for another $1300 CAD, buying another tempered glass, case, etc. Will wait for the Note 10.
There was already thread like this....
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/help/galaxy-note-9-upgrade-t3822028
Upgraded already and on the note 9 forum, hopefully see you all there.

Nope. Loving my N950N with 256GB internal storage thank you.
The Note 9 is a great piece of kit!
But because I am coming from the 8, the investment would be less of a need and more of a luxury.
What I am looking for ideally would be a Note 8 with:
Even slimmer bezels
Indisplay fingerprint sensor
Bigger battery
Full USB-PD charging at 25-30W
The new Aptx standard
Gold color
6.5in display
Fingers crossed. What I desire is more of a natural evolution rather than a dreamy list anyway.

Who still use Note 5 in 2019?

Hi.
As in subject.
I have Note 5 from 2017. Few monuth ago i buyed Note 9- overall of course better from 5 but Note 5 is still good phone. I back to five for few days. For me better from Note 9 is s-pen. He is thicker, more massive than note 9.
Next is flat screen. Definitely writing is more comfortable.
Then is overall looking and colour front and back. My is Gold platinum. In light looking silver-white and anyway isn't booring like all new samsung phones from s8- all black front.
My note still working in last stock 7.0. I flashed last build for TUR from end 2018. Now i can make note in screen off like in note 8/9 without any mods. Then install newest touch wiz, messages app, contacts, camera 6.95 with new icon and now software looking like Note FE.
So anybody have note 5 for daily driver?
I own a SM-920I since late 2015 and on nougat and stock. Have to take back up every once in a while to free up the space though. Haven't found reason to upgrade to a newer note yet but the new S10 plus is tempting. Planning to flash custom recovery to make the phone work on VoLTE.
I am still using my N920P unlocked for my T-mobile sim card. Just order an original battery from Samsungparts to test out the TRUE CAPACITY via usb amp meter multitester in another post of mine.
Recently i've been obsessed with phone battery's real capacity... I will move to note 9 real soon but still want to use N920P for the time being
Sadly, me too. I'm waiting for my 2 year contract to end in a month or two, then I'll go with the Note9. This POS was crappy from the Beginning. Just 32 gb with no expandable storage, Puny 300' mAh battery. Meh, It was the only Note I could afford at the time.
I am using SM-N920C with khongloi rom. Haven't yet considered upgrading the device as it is still functioning properly except the battery wear after 3 years of use. i still love it.
I just sold my note 5 N920C because 32gb storrage and 3000mah battery is just not enough in 2019.
Looking forward to buy note 9.
The Note 5 Is a Pretty Phone
But It can't be future proof at all.
32 GB of SD Card Is a Big disappointment for Long Use.
Granted its More Beautifull than My Note 8 , But Honestly I always felt kind of disappointment with only 32 GB SD Of Storage I kept Constantly Deleting My Data.
If they make a Note 5 like Phone but with SD Slot and Dual Camera I might buy It.
but honestly the 32 GB Of Storage makes it Impossible for Any one to Record Several videos , Play Games at same phone.
A Cheaper Option that would last Too Long Is now the Note 8.
The Only Negativity is the Speaker is not as Good as Note 9 other than that The Note 9 and Note 8 are identical.
I'll be buying note 9 soon. But i just spent $50 just to order a OEM replacement battery from Samsungparts... Because all of the aftermarket batteries i bought didnt live up to 3000 mAh.
And maybe it is just me 32 Gb for me is enough i always backup stuff to computer so i do not need more space.
Not many people out there that are like me still saying 32 GB is enough storage nowadays lolzzz
It looks like I'll have to unlock this phone (a Sprint version) as our business is going to TMobile... no free phones, so will have to make this work.
That said, any hints from others re good custom roms for an (unlocked Sprint) T-Mobile Note 5? I love custom roms... but with Sprint they are all but nonexistent. TMobile looks more promising, but am curious what folks have found.
I am still using my note 5 lovely.
~3-4 SOT as always. My battery changed ~1.5 years ago.
I am using my paid-to-unlocked Sprint Note 5 on T-mobile network currently. They have special software to unlock these Note 5 But i think that software is nowhere to be found over Internet
I'm still rocking my T-Mobile Note 5 64gb SM-N920T rooted still running Nougat. I need a ROM with reliable Bluetooth and WiFi. . .

What is your SOT like really using the phone from 100% till auto shut down?
