Question S21 FE Verizon V2 (Exynos) possible to flash U1 XAA unlocked firmware? - Samsung Galaxy S21 FE

Hi,
thanks in advance for your time. In the past, I have used a patched odin to remove Verizon firmware from Samsung galaxy phones and flash the U1 XAA unlocked firmware on them. I just got my hands on a new V2 S21 FE from Verizon. I tried the normal process and it did not work. I assume because of the different CPU. Is there a V2 unlocked firmware out there anywhere?
Thanks again.

bump ?

Some questions about bootloaders, VoLTE on G9600 (SnapDragon)

I have the Latin America Snapdragon S9 G9600 with Oreo and using it with Mint Mobile (T-Mobile ) in the US
Have a few questions:
1. If I update it to Pie or 10 , bootloader will get updated. Is it possible to come back to Oreo by flashing stock ROM with Odin without root? Will that trip Knox?
2. Same question but if phone is rooted
3. VoLTE and WiFi calling is not working. Has anybody gotten those to work on G9600 or G9650 ?
Wrong thread

What firmware I can flash on my Samsung note10 + SM N975u

hello everyone , I just bought a Samsung note10+ with SM-N975u verizon rom. I noticed that Note10 + come with 2 modal which is Snapdragon and Exynos.
With this Verizon rom it is quite annoying to me because I'm using it in Malaysia and all the services from Verizon useless for me. I got few questions before I try to flash my rom into other version.
My devices is unlocked , I can use Maxis & Digi sim card for now.
1. Can SM-N975U flash into SM-N975F? (SM-N975U is snapdragon & SM-N975F is exynos)
2. If I cannot flash into SM-N975F , which firmware I can choose to flash ? (any firmware without Verizon/ AT&T but come with google services)

Can you flash US firmware on Korean or Chinese s20?

I ordered a Korean S20 ultra (988N), but live in the US. Has anyone flashed the US firmware on a bootloader unlocked SD variant of the phone (ie 988U1 firmware on a 988N or 9880)? If so, did you have to change the CSC to XAA before or after you flashed the firmware?

I don't have an answer to your question but will the non-US phone work in the US like on Verizon system as is?
It should work fine on LTE. The main Verizon bands are 2, 4, 5, 13, all of which are supported in all s20 variants. I don't think you'll get 5g on any US carriers, so if that's important, better to pick up a US spec phone, and pay to unlock the bootloader.

I tested the phone (G988N) on both Verizon on TMobile. I was able to get 5G on both carriers. So I can confirm that all features (except possibly WiFi calling on Tmobile), work.
So using the KOO firmware in the US works perfectly fine. No reason to try to flash XAA.

Question [S901U] Remove Carrier Bloat

Hey,
I've got an att locked S22, and att have gone and done a bunch of dumb stuff like locking rcs to their implementation and installing a bunch of stuff as system that I don't want etc. I'm wondering if it's possible to flash a non carrier-specific firmware to the NA S22?
Thanks
Yes, you can flash the unlocked software to the phone and it will convert it into a U1 model, with OTA updates and everything. Every S or Note series subforum has the instructions listed, except for this one for some reason.
You can follow the instructions here, just substitute the S901 for the S908 - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...s908u1-versions.4400511/page-56#post-86785943

so to be clear if I were to flash this firmware it's probably not going to brick my S901U correct?

do you know if it's possible to dirty flash from U to U1 firmware?
I believe it will be a full wipe. Just back everything up to Samsung or Google.
