unbranding a Korean U+ SM-G977N - Samsung Galaxy S10 5G Questions & Answers

Hi.
I got this phone and meet getting U+ Data roaming warnings although I am using a local sim.
Is there any way to remove the U+ apps and settings?
Is there a clean ROM I can flash?

Can you get 5G?

Hi,
Managed to changed my CSC from KTC to KOO but still cannot get 5G NR frequency here in the Philippines. (Only 4G LTE shows even using local 5G ready sim)
Upon changing CSC, carrier bloatware apps and settings are removed.
Does any one know how can I use the 5G to maximize its capability?
Thanks

Galaxy Note 8 VoLTE is not working with India Jio SIM, anyone facing the same issue?

I bought Galaxy Note 8 64GB model yesterday from Samsung India online shop, inserted Jio SIM but VoLTE doesn't work, mobile data connected only with LTE, In order to make calls I had to install Jio4gvoice app. Note 8 doesn't have option to enable VoLTE.
When I contacted customer service they said bar code mismatch issue between the jio sim and mobile phone, new software update will be issued to resolve this problem.
Has anyone facing JioSIM VoLTE issue with Samsung Galaxy Note 8?
I am facing the same issue.
Jio customer care executive said the same thing.
Hope it gets resolved soon.
Its working on ma bros note8 here in India with jio... Sim is in slot 1 like its supposed to be.. Also it shud be assigned 4g/lte in mobile network settings.
I am facing the same issue Volte does not appear sometime
Changed sim card no luck with note 8 where as same sim card is working properly with MI mobile.
Sometime cant find Network .Volte disappear,No call no sms no net all dead .
Need urgent Fix
facing the same issue
hi,
I'm facing the same issue. i spoke to the jio customer care, but to no avail.
I applied to port to airtel. In the meanwhile i'm using their HDvoice app for calls and texts.
Any solution yet
Hi, I am facing the same issue. In my case the mobile was bought from US. Is there a solution? Jio4GVoice is annoying to keep all the time in mobile data even though I have fibre net in my home.
have you looked if it can be enabled via ims using Shortcut Master lite
Download Indian firmware
extract a file that start with name HOME_CSC_OXM***
flash that with Odin CSC tab.
Before this make backup of data including Int storage as it may wipe everything.
OR
Simply use a custom ROM that support Jio VolTE
Any fix for this issue yet? It's annoying, especially when the phone is made in India for India and doesn't work as expected!
Hello Guys,
As the vodafone VoLTE is launched in Delhi NCR circle i was casually trying to activate the same in my connection! I wasnt able to find the right setting, but then on the vodafone website they said to send a msg "4G Check" to 199 for checking compatibility of VoLTE on my handset (That is Note 8), to my horror the message i received was,
"Your Mobile Handset supports 4G, but will not support VoLTE. Kindly upgrade your handset to experience Vodafone VoLTE.
Are you kidding me, Note 8 doesnt support VoLTE?? Any inputs?
Note 8 supports VoLte but firmware needs required changes. Samsung have applied changes to to only three devices S9 pro, J7 next and J7 Pro to support Vodafone VoLte. Jio users already using VoLte on N8 so sooner or later it will be available for Vodafone too
But if it works with airtel volte and jio volte on the same firmware then how can it be a Samsung issue .?
Same step can be done for N9500 model too, for replacing TGY(hongkong) CSC by INS CSC ?
Will it trigger knox if I do so ?

Hello, I have been wanting to enable VoLTE functionality on my Galaxy Note 8 N9500 bought from UAE. Though its from UAE I was given a N9500 Version which is a Honkong / Chinese version of the phone. I am in India and want to use Samsung pay and also VoLTE.
Samsung pay would only take me to Install Honkong version of samsung pay.
Is it possible to flash a INS (Indian) firmware on this phone ?

No!
N9500 is Snapdragon soc.
Indian market gets the ones with Exynos soc.
So not compatible!
Only way is to root your phone and flash the modded csc zip file. BUT you Will LOSE Samsung pay! (For good)

Thanks for the quick reply Buddy. If not Indian firmware can we flash firmware of a country supporting VoLte . Coz Currently when I want to toggle greyed out VoLte button it says "Volte is not supported by your current software version. Contact customer service for more details" . I can live without samsung pay.
To make VoLTE work you need the IMS APN, basically when using VoLTE all the voice is send as "data" instead of "voice" when compare to 3G but these "data" are send to the IMS APN. Some phone allow you to manually add the IMS APN and turn on VoLTE, I don't know if note8 can do this or not as I never try to do it manually.
You can copy the IMS APN setting from other phone or ask your operator for it.
As I know Samsung will only include the IMS APN of the firmware's region in the firmware only.

How to change SM-N9500 CSC to T-mobile for VoLTE and Wifi Calling?

My note 8 is SM-N9500 TGY Hong Kong (Un-branded Chinese Snapdragon 835 Dual SIM, Unlocked Bootloader) How do I change the CSC in order for VoLTE and wifi calling to work with US T-Mobile?
I have the same problem. I'm very curious
I have same problem
Hello, I've seen on french forum that it's not possible
Can you guys confirm LTE works on T-Mobile in the US?
Hi!
I have also SM-N9500 csc is TGY(HONGKONG)
you can check here
http://www.phonemore.com/compare/phones/galaxy-note-8-sm-n950fd-vs-galaxy-note-8-sm-n9500/6303040
it is only Rom problem,
normaly SM-N9500 much more capable from SM-N950FD,
but i think china don't give a permissions for video calling,
and our SM-N9500 has a software barrier for this.
Are there any people will solve this problem?
Yes I also have hk sm-9500 with no video call button on dialpad and no wifi calling feature. Pls help enable them both. Thanks.
I would imagine you should be able to flash a T-Mobile N950U ROM on the 9500 if it is also Snapdragon, and that should in theory make it essentially the same as a 950U, though I am not sure if the 9500 has the right LTE bands. T-Mobile primarily uses LTE bands 2, 4, and 12 in most areas (mostly band 4 near me).
So far as I know you can use Korean Rom (N950N I guess) on N9500 but ODIN will not allow it, you need to root and flash by TWRP

This will probably brick his phone.
The 9500 is Snapdragon like the 950U, while the N and F are Exynos.

Can i flash the sm-g977b firmware onto the sm-g977n device?

Hey 5G Pioneers,
I am wondering can I flash the sm-g 977b firmware onto the sm-g 977n device through the Odin? Did someone make it?
Since these two models are all using the same Exynos 9820 chips
And from my previous experience of using my galaxy s8, Samsung actually enabled me to flash the firmware in different regions only if the devices were using the same chip version.
I am currently in Australia. The Korean version of 977N is much cheaper, and it seems that is the only network unlock version that I could buy from the market.
Not sure where are you in Australia but I bought mine from a Telstra Sales Rep (based in CBD, Melbourne) where he got a discount code and gave its to me for AUD 1400 for the 512 GB Majestic Black Version, unlocked , I'm using Optus, VoLTE, VoWIFI works fine on it.

Thanks. Is this the exynos or Snapdragon version? I'm planning to buy the 256gb version and use in India. So wanted to check before I ask my sister to buy.

Hi everybody,
On Sammobile website, I found 4 firmware Korean variants. I tried getting more information on the "KOO" variant to see if its a stock Samsung firmware without Carrier Apps/Bloatware without luck. I couldn't get any detailed information whether it can be flashed over any other Korean variant. Can anyone here clarify if its possible and If yes provide further details?
Attached a snapshot.
Many thanks

That is the non bloatware Korean version but it doesn't allow me to flash it. I suspect you have to flash it with the userdata file also.
Thanks for the information,
I have a new phone so No issues with user data. How do I flash the firmware.
Thanks

Hi,
I have successfully flashed the "KOO" variant once with and a second time without "userdata", however that did NOT remove any of the Bloatware/Carrier Apps.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
I disable the 3 apps then hide them from the app drawer.

Hi,
I did disable the apps which is great, but there menu operator items as well!
Edit : Forgot to mention that the boot logo is of the operator as well.
I was researching something about using the PIT file along with the firmware but can't find the specific PIT file for S10 5g.
Use Odin or the modified version to flash combination firmware. Then flash your desired firmware.
This is the only way I am aware to remove all carrier bloatware and boot logos.
Dual SIM

I am particularly interested in this as the 977N variant seems to be dual sim. I notice it also has additional bands to the 977B varient and I would like to put the telstra firmware to ensure operation of VoLTE VoWiFi RCS etc.
The main purpose is to use at home and overseas. So more bands and access to features (VoLTE, VoWiFI, RCS etc. on my telstra SIM and local overseas SIM) when overseas are the goal.
Unless someone can confirm that the 977N with vanilla firmware will support all the telstra features?
Thank you for your assistance

How to convert note 9 korea to international version

I bought Korean samsung note 9.is there any way to convert frimware to international version
My model is SM-960N CAN I flash SM-960F frimware which is International version
No way to do that with official firmware. Some custom roms can force the N variant as dual sim though
Are you having issues with your N960N? As I have a N960N as my backup device and it functions flawlessly without any issue. I use it for a few months while I was repairing my N950N. Now I currently use it to back up my N950N as a backup device.

You could just install the stock Samsung N960N OS onto your device and that will remove all the bloatware. I personally have the LG U+ variant of the N950N, I just disable all the LG U+ bloatware and ignore the ones that I can't.

If you have the stock Samsung N960N OS installed onto your device and it is running smoothly. I don't see the point in installing the N960F OS onto it.
Please provide a screenshot of what you are trying to explain as I don't see those options on my N960N

Hi,
Yes, you can still receive OTA updates Actually I'm a using G977N KTC also here in Philippines.
By the way, Have you tried to use the 5G network of your device using Globe/Smart 5G ready sim?
Change the CSC from KTC to KOO to removed all the carrier settings and bloatware apps.
Unfortunately, my device only shows LTE in mobile data.

Hi Rockoustic. How did you change the CSC? I currently have SKC and tried flashing KOO via ODIN but it still shows SKC.
