After a few years with my Samsung Galaxy Note Edge (AT&T) [SM-N915A], which wasn't bad until the last 6 months and then the inability to root it made it worse, I want to make my next upgrade worth it. I'm waiting for the 500 Gb version, and I want to be able to root it.
Of course, my eyes are on the Note 9, but which version should I buy?
International (SM-N960F)
International (SM-N960F/DS)
Unlocked
AT&T
T-Mobile
Sprint
U. S. Celular
Verizon

International because it gets updates faster
And it has more development support (custom roms, kernels, etc)
Also ive been in this situation with the at&t note 4 ?
Looks like at&t doesnt want us to root our devices
So dont get at&t

Simply put, If root is what you seek on Samsung devices these days, Don't get any of the U.S. carrier editions of the phone.
All of the U.S. Samsung devices ship with Snapdragons and Samsung has ultimately decided to lock all bootloaders on them as well, That's not to say that a Dev won't attempt to work on atleast a root method for Snapdragon devices but with a locked bootloader you won't be able to do much.
Samsung's also implemented a rather interesting tactic to deter rooting on Snapdragon devices, When they're rooted, The device will no longer be able to charge to 100% and instead will default to 80% only.
This can be demonstrated on the S8 and the Note 8.
The S9 Snapdragon U.S. variants still don't have root to this day, When and if it ever does, that same method may be usable to figure out the Note 9 as well, But don't get your Hope's up.
Now for the international and Unlocked devices they ship with an Exynos and subsequently unlocked bootloaders which allows for the creation of Mods, Roms, And the various other things most people root for nowadays.
All in all, You want an Exynos equipped Note 9, Hope this is useful for you.
Thanks,
Almost right after the the post I came upon this article
https://highonandroid.com/android-deals/best-deals-on-galaxy-note-9-new-galaxy-phones/
it goes a bit more in depth, covering GSM vs CDMA, when and where to buy it.
It seems that the Latin America Galaxy S9 and S9+ (SM-G9650) both had Snapdragon processors with an unlockable bootloader. You could then Odin firmware on them to be able to use them on Verizon, At&t, and T-mobile. I hope they will release a Snapdragon model of the Note 9 as well in Latin America! I need an unlocked bootloader on Verizon for sure.

It doesnt matter anymore which type of note 9 you get, because there is gonna be root protection where imei and network flies if you root, like the a8 on oreo
And also i agree with you, US carriers (especially at&t) prevent root all the way up to the fact that you cant root at all (the at&t note4 has no root but all the other note 4's have root)
will an international work on USA carriers?

I'm interested in the unlocked version instead of the T-Mobile, but I've read that the bands are not the same and wifi calling doesn't work. I'm over flashing ROM's, so that isn't an option for me. I'll probably get the carrier branded one to make sure I get the 600 band and wifi calling.

I have the old gUDP plan so I need a phone that does NOT check for hotspot eligibility. I understand the unlocked Note 8 did NOT check, so it's likely the unlocked Note 9 would be okay as well. So I'm definitely stuck with the US unlocked version, right?
Geez, I kind of hate both Verizon and Samsung, but I want to stay on gUDP and want a good phone that will work for me out of the box.

My understanding:
Verizon model WILL check for hotspot eligibility and thus won't work for us.
International unlocked models will not work on Verizon's network.
Therefore, we're stuck with the US Unlocked model. It has a locked bootloader, and thus may never be rootable, but will work with Verizon and NOT check hotspot eligibility.
To be clear, at this point I just think it's very likely the US Unlocked model will NOT check hotspot eligibility. I will probably wait to confirm that before I pull the trigger.

I consider myself an optimist and I want to stay positive. Honestly the main reason I opted for the Galaxy S10 was due to root support and phone development vs LG G series. I really am loving the performance of my phone. I've been rooting since the 1st Galaxy came out with help from this forum. I just hate to give up hope because there had always been some brilliant mind or mind(s) to crack through the barriers.
Just sucks all the other versions get to enjoy making their phone a little more fabulous than my US Sprint version ?
Thanks!

It's been a given fact that the US Snapdragon wont get root and it's been a well known fact for quite a while now. You should have opted for another model if you wanted root.
Well some of that was also dependent on those engineering kernels that got leaked on the last two models the Galaxy 8 & 9. Some devs were able to build off of that.

True. I will say I haven't had a Galaxy since S6 but I would always see support for Galaxy. I wasn't interested in the S9 as much so I wasn't aware of how restricted it had become. Over the years I've had Motorola X play, LG series and Axon. As I said I assumed someone would break they the barrier. I remember the 1st root breaking through Knox or finding a work around. Then the bounty collected to root other versions as they became more difficult. It's just weird how US would be so dogmatically restrictive. But it's not an end all for me. I love my phone and how it doesn't lag even with 20 apps open.
P personally don't think root is needed too much on the S10
Was there any hope in the first place?
North American Samsung are known to be locked, only a fool would waste time finding way to root it when 99% of the world use a different version that is already possible to root.
I came from S7 exynos rooted with Magisk, and was very reluctant to swtich out, but I needed modern radio so I took the leap with the S10e. Got the 256GB U1 version, flashed with Tmo U firmware, and I'm 99% set. Giving certain permissions via ADB to MacroDroid and other apps is so far enough (e. g. set lock timeout to forever when on home WiFi, effectively doing the same as some rooted solution, etc.)
The 1% that I still really wish I could have? Titanium Backup. Migrating phone with TiBu is so much easier, and it's more reliable too. I wish Android allows more flexibility to power users on this (Google or Samsung backup is still not good enough).

It's not, but some people think they have to have it.
Just in case, what's people suggestion?
In case we still able to return the phone, should we do it?
Does it seems some option for Snapdragon version in future, or better to give up and stockpile a return to the company?
For me, unlocked bootloader is a must, in order to remove crapware (like Bixby), remove Google, or just to get future support after Samsung declares it an "outdated device"
Suggestions?

I feel you dude, sucks that North Americans can't enjoy the same freedoms on the S10 compared to literally anywhere else. Doesn't make sense. I've always assumed that it was the US variants that can be easily unlocked? Perhaps because it uses the snapdragon chip, which I assumed was more easy to 'manipulate' than on Exynos chips?
The U.S. S10 Sprint 5G version can be rooted. The U.S. S9's just got root not too long ago. As for the other U.S. variants of the S10, root will probably never come to fruition.

That's why I ended up getting a exynos verison for cricket lol
Always research if a device has root before buying it. Also if you want them to stop locking the bootloaders for the US variants start buying international exynos models so you can have root and maybe they will notice not as many US units selling due to locked bootloaders and will stop locking them, I doubt it but you never know.
Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone had any luck in rooting the Samsung S10 5G TMobile phone (SM-G977T) ? If yes, could you kindly share some pointers that can help in this regards ?
I am asking because, this phone is a coming with a Qualcomm 855 processor, and I have come across articles stating that Qualcomm made it hard to unlock the bootloader. Rooting this phone is not as easy as rooting the Exynos Samsung phones. I was wondering how long it might take before a developer comes up with a cool solution to root the phone.
Does anyone know if any past Qualcomm powered phones could be rooted, and how long did it take for a developer to come up with a solution for such a phone?
Thanks much !
I'm asking cause I dont know if he flashes to Sprint with the bootloader unlocked. Would that make him possible to root then flash back to Tmobile, and keep it?
Same question about Rooting Samsung S10 5 , Sprint version
Hi All,
I also have the same question about rooting Samsung S10 5G *Sprint* phones. Could anyone root a Samsung S10 5G Sprint phone ?
From what I know the Sprint phone can be booter unlocked easily, but has anyone come up with a rooted firmware for Sprint Samsung S10 5G phone ? If yes, it will be very helpful if you could kindly provide some pointers in this regards.
Thanks much !

The answer to all these questions is No, No, and No.
When looking for new phone to be rooted, make sure to do some research before buying one, so you don't end up waiting (possible forever).
As far as ETA for when root might be available is a similar question as asking "when are you going to die?", maybe tomorrow maybe in 50 years. lol
Just to give you some idea about ETA's, no Qualcomm bootloader has ever been unlocked so far, and the only rooting solution is by using an engineering bootloader with a script to push SuperSU to system. The last Qualcomm (Snapdragon) phones which were rootable were up to and including model S8 (S7 really which is actually decent). Course all the international Exynos based ones are all rootable.

Well, my statement wasn't far off, since starting with the S7 though the S10 series none of the US Snapdragon bootloaders were unlockable, till the recent discovery of the one and only Sprint S10 G977P, which might just be a fluke and can easily be locked up by Sprint via a firmware upgrade... Just sayin' lol
So, looks like the G977P can be rooted via this method (the Exynos method may be used as a guide) https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s10-5g/how-to/root-recovery-roms-guide-info-t3957211 But time will tell if this root is stable enough as a daily driver without any issues.
In case anyone wants one at the cheap price of about 800 bucks, here WAS one available lol > https://swappa.com/listing/view/LRVI96993
I was just wondering, is it possible to cross flash the G977P with G977U (VZW) or G977T (TMO) like it was possible with pretty much all the other models in recent years? Does it give a bootloader error when trying to do so? Any tricks to push it through? What's stopping the S9/S10 series from being rooted via the eng-boot/script method, what has changed since the S7/S8 series? Perhaps the merging of the BL (boot.img) into AP (system.img)?
I can already imagine the answers ringing out loud... No! No! and No! Not possible! lol
Strangely they don't even have an unbranded "U1" firmware available for this model so far.

Well, that kind of sucks, it was nice to be able to flash the U/U1 on the S7 though the S10 (excluding the G977x), and having a nice unbloated system.
Wonder if this restriction has been imposed on the G977x QC models only?
Have your tried to root your Sprint G977P yet?
For some reason I thought the snapdragon models were easier to create roms for but so far I only see roms for the models that have the Exynos CPU. Is this true? Are there any roms for g973u or g973u1 models?
No, it's been known for years that the G973U1 phones are locked down. You're already getting a superior phone with the Snapdragon processor so you'll have to live with it.
Thanks for the info. I've rooted and rom'd every phone I have ever had including my galaxy s7 international. I'm not sure if I'm quite ready to buy a phone that can't be rooted. That said the galaxy s10 is an amazing phone and Samsung's camera app is pretty sweet. One of my main motivations for rooting is for installing the google camera app
My s10+ exynos rooted is for sale
The U.S. variants of the S9 and S9+ just got root like 2 months ago. It'll be awhile before the S10 gets root if it's even going to be possible. A lot people are saying no that root will never come to the U.S. S10 model line.
Hello everyone I live in Canada and I use a Koodo network (part of Telus wireless). I am Interested in trying a oneplus phone because I came from a samsung galaxy s8 and in Canada mine is boot loader locked. My s8 model # SM-G950W and it seems like many sources say its not possible to root. I am interested in a one plus 10 pro 5G (https://www.oneplus.com/ca_en/10-pro) or a newly released oneplus 10T 5G. Are either of these phones rootable? And if so, has anyone done it? Is rooting stable? Does it have many failures/bugs/errors? Can anyone confirm which oneplus device is best for rooting and is rooting partially done or fully rooted?
Many thanks!!

Get the Motorola p90 pro.
I'd even look at the nothing phone 1 if you could get it, looks great, uses a 788 SOC I think, plus it's cheap and that glyph lighting is brilliant.
Rooting shouldn't be a problem but there won't be many if any custom ROMs.
The pixel 6 does have a couple of custom ROMs but they're far and few between the days.
I couldn't recommend a Sammy device as the bloat and weird convaluted OS is just horrific.

I have checked this post and there doesn't seem to be any confirmation regarding what steps to take if a s22 is bootloader locked as with many samsung phones here in North america which come bootloader locked

if you want a unlocked phone, then buy a unlocked phone. don't buy a subsidized locked phone then complain that you can't unlock the phone on contract.
pretty sure that says unlocked

do you know op 10 is also sd 8 gen 1?
my op 10 pro and samsung tab s8 ultra are both sd 8 gen 1 and both rooted
from what region did u buy those devices from ?
Also what is the model version for your rooted oneplus 10 pro ?
but seriously, don't buy this phone. you are pretty much screwed if you screw up rooting. no way to restore if you brick it.
