What can I say? you are Briliant. very clear and straight forward instructions. excellent job. I have updated my Galaxy note8 Dual sim SM-N950F /DS, Samsung Exynos 8895 processor which never updated beyond android 7.1.1. I restored it to factory default, still no joy. i saw a few instructions online but wasnt sure.Your's is very clear. I just selected one of the UK firmwares for N950F and flashed it successfully to Android 9 Pie ONE UI. i didnt have Wi-Fi calling feature on the 7.1.1, now I have wifi calling. I'm so pleased. Thanks

Thank you so much! I followed all the steps and was able to flash my device (SM-N960U) successfully. Keep doing what you're doing and have a great day! :)
Hi, did you have issues downloading the files from those websites that he provided? I can't seem to be able to download them unless I pay a certain fee. Thanks
Excuse me, if I want to keep all my data then I should use HOME_CSC rather than CSC right (plus not tick in the Nand Erase option)? And if I choose HOME_CSC then to what extent will my data be kept? All or just some certain ones? And does F.reset affect my data too?
It's not necessary to install at&t firmware only. You can install any firmware, tmobile's or Sprint or Verizon or even unlocked. As long as you have the correct firmware file for your model. I have Sprint note 9 but I flashed to unlocked firmware so that I'll get a clean os with no Sprint bloatware.
I have Note 9 which I don't want to give up. It's a N960W CANADIAN version, and since it's a Snapdragon I can't unlock the bootloader. So the million dollar question is do I need to have a phone ROOTED if I want to flash stock firmware from AT&T (N960U) instead of Bell (N960W)?
does using a firmware of another neighbour country affects the phone update in an circumstances??, either the phone woud rejects my country service providers?
I have a stock ROM Android 10, I want to update using Odin, do I need to unlock bootloader first just like the old odin methods or just activate the usb debug and simply flash the correct firmware?

Hi, Just wandering, what is the user data section of ODIN and why do you not load any file for this section. I want to use the latest official firmware on my note 9 but for some reason, the device does not recognise any new firmware. I've watched a few videos and some people add to user data folder. sorry to bother, Appreciate any help
User data is wiping your phone's data to have a clean install. Even if you don't select that, in Odin you can select the wipe option which will do the same thing.
Whatsoever it does matter when you follow a specific video and they tell you to add userdata, please do so. There are multiple things, options and Odin version, every process may not be the same there might be a slight variance.
So the download is not fully completed. You may have to re-download the file. Or use samfirm software to download the firmware. I have made another video on how to use samfirm to download firmware. ruclips.net/video/di_xxVToisg/видео.html
can I install G950U1 firmware on G950U? Do my CSC code has to be same as the firnware i am going to install? if my csc ends on CSA4, should the target firmware have to be the same? Please help brother!
No the target firmware doesn't have to match, you can go any latest firmware. The only thing you need to make sure is that you download right firmware for your model and carrier/unlocked variant. You can install U1 which is unlocked I assume on U which is carrier firmware with no issues. Again downloading right firmware file is the key. It doesn't really matter which carrier/unlocked firmware you flash to.
