Confused in Note Edge Variants NxxxY / SM-Nxxx - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Thread title says it all.
Can someone be so kind to make a list of all the note edge variants and highlight the technical differences / regions / carrier affinity (like Snapdragon or Qualcomm). As far as I know from various sources following variants exist
SM-N915FY for Europe
SM-N915A for AT&T
SM-N915T for T-Mobile
SM-N915K/SM-N915L/SM-N915S for Korea
SM-N915G for Singapore, Australia, Spain
SM-N915D for Japan
Samsung Exynos 5 Octa 5433 (South Korea version)
Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 (Global version)
1. Is it true that , there are no custom ROMs and root for Snapdragon based variants.
2. Which variants are based on Snapdragon / which on Exynos
3. Which one is usually called the global variant.
4. Is it true mods and custom ROMs are now variant locked and cannot be used interchangeably on all the variants.
I am asking because I have a variety of devices available in my market in new and used condition, some of which are new and some imported from other countries and regions.
So just wanna make sure I buy the correct one instead of regretting afterwards.
Thank for reading and your reply.

1+ Me too SM-N915FY for Europe ?? ATT LTE?
I have similar question - will SM-N915FY for Europe work on ATT LTE - the whole bands thing I have looked at has not helped - I do not seem to understand what bands - LTE are essential. Does anyone know?
Thanks.

If you have physical access to all these different variants then the best way is to type #*2263# in the dialer.
That will give you service mode info as following:

Then you can tap on each band and you'll have the following:
Asterisk means it's enabled (you can disable if you wish)

Hope this helps...

1 common PTAV 4 large official firmware version through the brush! That is what version you brush what version. Official system can be updated , this is terrible.
This means that you buy 935p, you can brush to 935t, you can brush into 935v, but also painted 935a.
System in the brush to 935t and 935a when 2 networks , telecommunications no signal (and maybe the telecom operators estimate lock band), while 935p and 935v three Netcom .
QQ picture 20160424034036.jpg QQ picture 20160424034041.jpg
2 mobile the perfect support 4g , I also took the US version of the US version 935p 928p 9350 Hong Kong version of the whole network 4g, three to test, there is no place in the mobile 4g 928p, 935p and 9350 mobile 4g are perfect.
This fully exclude the impact of this pit father B41 band, it proved the perfect band mobile 4G (but: US version mobile 3g bands)
Incidentally:
Unicom 4g is perfect, a band of non-B41. .
Telecom 4g Internet can be normal, but the text messages and phone seems to be some problems. It is said that after the break is available, the need to restore the factory after new cracks, the solid Conservative Telecom said to 3G.

3 BL lock, this appeared on the US version of all versions
, we often hear can brush machine: SPRINT P version and Tmobile T version, also locked.
What BL lock Representative: root can not brush third party rom, only official upgrade in the future to crack depends.
Fortunately, however, the official 6.0 system can each brush, you can brush into the T or V Edition version of the system relatively clean point, useless and then custom software and Google family bucket ban, system life can be guaranteed.
Officially banned this is actually very consistent with the needs of white: does not affect the upgrade, do not toss the brush, not afraid of brick, the key is cheaper

It's NOT a surprise that the 930T, 930A, 930V or 930P can flash firmware from each other. What people are interested in is to flash unlocked bootloader firmware or at least get root. If people in China are flashing US firmware to Chinese variants 9300 to get more bands, then the Chinese discovers a rooting method, that would be interesting too.

Guide needed to enable LTE-A/LTE+ on violet

Xiaomi says redmi note 7 pro supports 3ca but hardly is anyone experiencing it. Some internal digging made clear that it does support 3ca but its not compatible with the Indian networks yet(don't know about other countries). Most of the users report some sort of network/speed problem on lte. I read a guide here on xda for enabling LTE-A on xiaomi mi a1. Was wondering if anyone could make a dedicated guide for note 7 pro too. Well xiaomi too could fix the issue but seems they show no interest and don't even address it publicly. The network on this thing really sucks, it does. And that shouldn't become the reason to hate on this lovely device.
Don't understand what I am talking about, read this - https://piunikaweb.com/2019/04/25/e...ion-likely-incompatible-with-indian-networks/
Xiaomi devices doesn't support often well CA outside from China. Atleast cheap models...

These are the bands supported by the oneplus nord according to gsmarena.com
5G bands 1, 3, 7, 28, 78 - Europe
78 - India
Make sure your carrier is using one of these bands. Some regions use different bands, and a phone made for a region might not work well in another.
Also, are you using dual sim? Because if you are, for Europe atleast when in dual sim mode 5G is disabled until a future firmware update patches things up.
Yes I don't see 5g. I have mobile plan with 5g but I don't we 5g. My provider eses N1 network at the moment. I don't understand why.
OnePlus 8t has the same problem.

OnePlus like other phones have enabled 5G only certain networks. I have list in my blog and also instruction how you can modify your phone modem and enable 5G-support: https://mt-tech.fi/en/modify-oneplus-7-pro-5g-8-and-8-pro-nr-lte-a-band-combos/
As per the excellent guide from @olkitu above, I managed to get my OnePlus Nord to connect to 5G on Telstra (Australia) with pre-paid plan.
Additionally, I was able to get VoLTE and VoWiFi working reliably using this YT guide:
Edit: I'm on OxygenOS 10.5.9 (Android 10)
One question. Do I have to do it each and every time after every Software Update or it is permanent?

Question S22 Ultra Snapdragon T-Mobile and Unlocked

Please pardon if this seems repetitive as I have not found any answers. I have T-Mobile SM-S908U (T-Mobile) variant pre-ordered from Samsung. Was able to get the phone network unlocked. So I ended up flashing the phone with XAA variant (SM-S908U1)
I have noticed the followings.
Using SM-S908U(TMobile):
Calls seems much clearer
5GUC Icon
Download 230 Mbps Upload 6.45 Mbps
Using SM-S908U1 (XAA Unlocked)
Calls are not clear as Carrier
No 5GUC icon
Download 278 Mbps Upload 14.4 Mbps
CSC is TMB/TMB,TMB/XAU
Would you please share your call quality with the unlocked firmware? Do I need to do anything to get the clear call quality like the carrier version?
Thank you all in advance
Update: One more observation I've noticed:
Using T-Mobile firmware, when calling any other T-Mobile phone, the calls are very clear, high definition.
Using unlocked firmware to T-Mobile number, regular call quality.
Flash 908U1 TMB not XAA
You had better luck than I getting your phone unlocked. TMo is not unlocking mine.

Question T Mobile version

I got the unlocked version from the google store to use on Mint (T Mobile mvno). It does not connect to UC which I figured it wouldn't considering only the Verizon variant has mmWave. However, I went to the T Mobile store and tested their 6a variant and it did connect to mmWave UC, speed test over 500mbs. So I'm curious if loading the T Mobile rom on an unlocked phone would support it.
I purchased the unlocked version, and I get 5GUC on TMobile. But I don't think that it is mmwave
Ok, I see T-Mobile also refers to their n41 (2.5GHz) 5G as Ultra Capacity

I have the 6a bought from a T-Mobile store (well, mailed from T-Mobile as they didn't have sage in stock). I see 5GUC in some places in Ann Arbor, but don't see DL speeds over about 150....
Out in the wild, I never see over 150 either. However, in the T-Mobile store, I get UC and over 400. I have a theory they have one of those personal cell things in the store. I'm in the Cleveland area. I turn off 5G for the most part, it keeps the phone cooler and helps with battery life.
I'm betting that the 5G UC symbol is for native T-Mobile, not MVNOs. If you see Mint Mobile in your indicator, it just says "5G".
I believe only Verizon shows "Verizon" even if a MVNO is used. Most carriers show the MVNO name if one is used, and avoid the branded indicators.
You are right. Even though the band is the same, only the T-Mobile sim displays UC. Found a good video explaining the differences.
I have 2 questions related to T-Mobile and Google purchased phone. I am on T-Mobile and have the default build.
1. Is there anything to be gained or loss by flashing the newer T-Mobile B1 build vs default B1 build?
2. Does flashing to T-Mobile B1 build exclude me from the Android 13 Beta program?
