Hello, I have my H634 (from Cricket) unlocked.
and recently switched to T-Mobile.
I know the phone might not 100% support T-Mobile network but want to give a try.
so I have put the T-Mobile Sim and I manually punch in the APN information.
Then I tried to access internet and it goes to T-Mobile website says my data plan not support this device.
Sounds like since no T-Mobile connect and it goes to it's partner connection but they refused to let you use it (since tmobile have to pay).
any idea I can force to enable to network connection in this case?
Did you call T-Mobile?
I thought Cricket,Verizon,Sprint,Boost was a cdma company not gsm like Tmobile,Metro,AT&T.

not seeing BAND 12 from LTE Discovery for H634. seems it is not being enabled.
Is it available in your area yet? We just got a report in my area of band 12

Historically the Snapdragon version NEVER supports Dual-Sim, sad but true
That's not true, s20 ultra Hongkong version is snapdragon with dual sim

Was chatting with support to get a different person to confirm US version is single sim, and it is. Asked him about the HK version, said it would be single sim as well...........but here's to hoping he's wrong on both counts.
As far as I know, there is a difference between the US model and the HK model. For the European networks, the HK model works better.
The Note 20 Ultra no longer has two physical sim slots. If you want a double sim then you need a Sim + eSim.
a think only snapdragon version is in US , HK will by exynos this time

As far as i know there will be two asia market version of snapdragon SM-N986N (South Korea) with Snapdragon and SM-N9860 (China, HK) and now am i thinking which version to buy.... Wondamobile will have probably N9860 version but anyone know what is the difference between N986N version?
Different is bloatware and network bands for me is better HK version, hope snapdragon will be there

For Korea version is confirmed Snapdragon, but also i think for HK version. On other hand India and Europe gets Exynos 990. Probably in 10 days will be available on wondamobile in buy it there HK version. Can't wait!

where did you get that information about HK being exynos? its been snapdragon for years...please put up a link to the information
thanks
Considering the S20 Ultra, the HK or China unlocked versions SM-N9860 will be the best bet.
Guys I live in Europe (Greece) and I wanna buy the snapdragon version but I'm not sure from where. Is wondamobile safe? And if yes then which version is the best to buy? I don't care about dual sim. And here in Greece we don't even have 5G yet.
Plus one more question. In my country if you preorder note 20 ultra before 20th of August you get buds live for free. Does that work in other countries too?
Hi All,
After some research, I found out that the Note 20 Ultra 5G SM-N9860 HK (TGY) or CN (CHC) probably the best variant there is.
It's a Snapdragon 865+ 12GB RAM 256/512GB storage.
Carrier and Bootloader unlocked.
4G&5G supports most of the bands worldwide.
The CN (CHC) have build in Call recording (to be confirmed but no Samsung Pass AFAIK).
The only thing is to find a trusted online store to purchase it from (sending worldwide).
Any suggestions?

Thanks for this, very useful!
If you live in Europe, try wondamobile.com - they are reliable and Ive read many good things about them on the web, reddit, etc. They also take care of import tax and mostly sell HK version.
I am also leaning towards HK to be on safe side and waiting for Wonda to have them in stock.

I cant recommend more Wondamobile. Refreshing their page every 5 min. I think they will drop it 1 week before start shipping. About HK version i saw that its comming in HK on 28.8, just a heads up. For ultra there is 256GB/512GB variant and thanks good 12GB ram.

Cant wait to try root it. If anyone have bbs.gfan account please hit me in DM
Sadly Wondamobile doesn't ship to most of the world.
Any other suggestions?

Hmm on their website they state that they ship to most of the world for £20: https://www.wondamobile.com/faq
Q: Where do you ship to?
A: Shipping is free to the United Kingdom and USA, and is only £20 more to most worldwide countries. Shipping to all countries is fully tracked.

I had a word with their customer service and they said they are waiting for Samsung HK to get the shipping dates and that they will most likely start taking orders from mid of August. So we just need to check every day
Cancelled my UK Exynos order yesterday, waiting for Wonda to order from there...
Man, why can't Samsung make 1 phone version as any other normal company? So frustrating!

Yes i made some cross reference with S20 announcement and when they start shipping it and preorders are usually 1-2 weeks before they ship it.

No info yet for Note 20, but it will be available once Wonda will have the phone for sale.
However, it should be pretty similar to S20 Ultra that has the following specs:
TECHNOLOGY GSM / CDMA / HSPA / EVDO / LTE / 5G
2G BANDS GSM: GSM850,GSM900,DCS1800,PCS1900
3G BANDS WCDMA: B1(2100),B2(1900), B5(850),B8(900)
4G BANDS 4G FDD-LTE: B1(2100),B2(1900),B3(1800),B4(AWS),B5(850),B7(2600),B8(900),B12(700),B13(700), B18(800),B19(800),B20(800),B25(1900),B26(850),B28(700) 4G TDD-LTE: B34(2010),B38(2600),B39(1900),B40(2300),B41(2500)
5G BANDS 5G Sub-6 FDD: N1(2100) / 5G Sub-6 TDD: N78(3500),N79(4500)
So you should check with your mobile provider to see what bands they use and compare against these ones.
Thanks
Will this version has all necessary bands for 5G and 4G in USA?

You will need to contact your mobile operator and ask them to provide their frequencies and compare them against the ones in the phone to make sure it will work.
I live in the UK so dont know much about US frequencies.

As far as I am aware only Hong Kong versions have unlocked bootloader for Snapdragon. The US one doesn't.
Exynos, on the other hand, has fully unlocked bootloader so can be rooted.
On the other hand, do you really need rooting the phone? As far as I am aware there is currently no option to root without destroying Knox, but I might be wrong.
Here are the GSM specs from Wonda for Hong Kong version:
2G BANDS GSM: GSM850,GSM900,DCS1800,PCS1900
3G BANDS WCDMA: B1(2100),B2(1900), B5(850),B8(900)

Well, well, well...You convinced me to switch from the Korean Version I was looking at to the HK/CN version. Gain the support for dual sim(even though I don't use it). Almost the same price of the Korean version I was buying, expect with WonderMobile import fees are included, which is a plus. Both HK and Korean seem to support the same bands that I use here. It'll take a little longer to ship to me out in Japan, yet I am excited as well.
What would be the reason VoLte wouldn't work? Requires a specific LTE band in the country?
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how to enable carrier aggregation on unlocked Note 20 Ultra (Hong Kong version but should be the same for all other regions)?
Thanks!
Hi,
It's enabled by default, and I doubt you can disable it unless you force it to use only one band (with Activity Launcher, search for a phone activity with the word "hidden"), but even then you won't be able to turn off intra band aggregation.
You can see if your phone connects well to multiple frequencies with an app called NetMonster

Thanks a lot!
The problem is that I imported the Snapdragon version from Hong Kong and it seems (from what I read about imported S20 Ultra) it doesnt have EU specific carrier aggregation so needs to be changed via Qualcomm tools and PC.
So I wanted to know the method for Note 20 too.
We don't know Carrier Aggregation combinations what HK-version support but there is way to list these from modem log. I think HK-version have Qualcomm so SCAT-method is best: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...tions-from-your-android-phone/#Scat_(Qualcomm
What region you try use? In Europe i think Carrier Aggregation should work but in US i think it doesn't support any combinations. If you just share QMDL modem log i can list all Carrier Aggregation combinations from your device.

Actually, carrier aggregation worked out of the box, without any fancy setup. Depending on network strength it shows either 2 or 3 bands combined.
So this issue is resolved.

Yes, I live in the UK and HK version works like a dream - except 5G that doesn't work yet...
And, yes, it should not fully work in the US as the bands are different. But in the US you guys have native Snapdragon variant (1 sim though) that should do it.

So I ordered A us note 20 ultra then i read on here that these past couple of North American samsung devices Arent been able to be rooted, I didn’t know this because my last Samsung phone was a s8+ but anyway i returned it and ordered the N980 varient because im a dumbass and i have never been on a android phone without root and i have owned androids for over 8 years. I just Hope the 4g service is not bad, I already sacrificed 5g for it but i need 4g ?:crying:

I also migrated from S8 and the difference is huge.
I was also a heavy root user but stopped rooting phones as use Knox and banking apps heavily and neither works with root. TBH I didn't miss root much, we can do almost everything without rooting nowadays.
Hi Guys. Anybody can explain me why Note 20 ultra Hk version with Snapdragon Dual Sim doesn't work on 5G. I'm on UK on EE network, my brand new Note 20 Ultra just show me on the screen 4G+ speed.

Hi ALL. Thanks for sending me maps with 5G Coverage in EE UK. Looks like EE maps are different like real coverage maps with 5G range!!!
Anyway,acording that much accurate map I was check 2 places where 5G must working i Northampton UK ,and....still didnot pickup 5G on device screen. All the time is trong 4G+ only...
I got official message from Technician Team EE UK about SM-N9860,and it looks like that device on that moment is not compatible with EE 5G network .Is all good with 4G bands but not with 5G.

Welcome. Which Note 20 ULTRA model do you have? Is it SM-N9860 HK version? And can I ask where you have such a good 5G range?

Thanks! I am among the first people in this forum who got SN-N9860 from Wonda, right after it was announced in HK.
The area I live in has no 5G yet so I had to travel to other places to test. The screenshot I posted was taken in Weybridge, near the high street. Three only has a tiny 5G area in Weybridge so I assume the speed and latency would be much better in London or other areas with better 5G coverage.
Carrier aggregation is not setup on the sm-n9860 to utilize the lte bands that USA use - for t-mobile anyways.
Im not sure if changing to csc bri might help for this. Probably someone from usa can confirm?
Maybe @inningsdefeat500 can confirm or not. I believe he has the same device and on T-Mobile USA.
Anyone know for sure if the n41 5g mid band will work on tmo? I know the phone has n41 and is available but would it require tmo firmware?
I have always purchased unlocked and used without problem on tmo...
I just got the phone yesterday, and I'm having no problems with their 5g.

Also, the specs say that it supports N41.

Awesome that definitely looks like it could be n41, seems too fast for lte...
