Questions regarding N9860 - Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers

Hi all
I just received my note N9860 with N9860ZSU1ATGM build out of the box and 5G works fine
I have read that after updating, 5G doesn't work
Currently there's build N9860ZSU1ATH1 on the updater
Since i will be rooting, should i update first or i will lose 5G?
Thank you

This is good news.
5G currently doesn't work in the UK. Not sure if it's a firmware thing as I updated my phone immediately after initial setup.
Does it work in sim2 slot or in sim1 too?
For me, I would prefer the latest firmware over 5G as don't have any 5G in my area.

And only slot 2? That is, you can't make it work on slot 1 by selecting that slot in SIM Card Manager?

does this model work in USA for tmobile/metro and have the frequencys?

For 5g i dont believe its compatible.
4g yes but i think its missing at least a couple bands i so maybe not as well as US model
Luckily for you this model has been discussed at length here on xda, for more detailed information use the search button please.

I guess tmobile uses 5G: Bands n41, n71, n260, n261
N9860 has N41 N78 N79

Flashing 920F(france) firmaware on 920i(indian) model

One way to find out...flash it.

Technically, it should matter because of the different hardware.
In Brazil, the model sold is the same 920i - which by the way doesn't stand for Indian.
I know people who have installed the Xtrestolite 2.0 which is 5.1.1 for F and T models. The only things that happened is that they can't use the fingerprint scanner or connect to LTE...

Single SIM version has no SIM-2 pins present. So can't convert it to Dual SIM version by flashing a different firmware. But the opposite can be done I guess.

So, is there no hope? Are you sure that 930F model hasn't SIM-2 pins?
Do you think the differenze between F and FD models could be in the phone and not in the slot?
I don't need the Dual SIM but would like to have Indian language pack and other Stuff on the S7. Becasue it's a gift for someone and i bought it in Europe.

So, if I insert the slot of FD model in a F model, do you think F model will work with two sims??

Nope. If it's just that why didn't Samsung sell all the phones with a DUAL SIM capability. FD versions have the pins for the SIM-2 where F doesn't have it.

Few questions about SM-N9860 (HK Note 20 Ultra 5G) - software updates, 5g, volte

Hi guys!
What about software updates for this model? I'm on BRI CSC. All other models received new updates, what is going on with ours??
Can someone confirm 5G works on the 1 sim slot? someone said that 5G works only one the second sim slot instead of micro sd, how is it possible?
Can someone comfirm volte is also working on this model?
Thanks!

Our device gets the slowest updates. The latest one is still ATH1 with August security patch.
5G is currently not working with BRI CSC. If you want 5G you will need to install TGY CSC with July security patch. 5G only works in sim2 slot. It's a software thing.
Volte and wifi calling are working fine.

Im on BRI July ATH1 (Was originally TGY), and 5G is working. So I think it just has to be July patch, TGY or BRI doesn't seem to matter (?)
Updates are sucking so hard right now on this model... Think I might go for a Korean N986N and sacrifice the extra SIM slot.
Edit: Actually, I had the opposite problem. 5G on TGY July patch ATH1 was not working. I had to change CSC to BRI and flash BRI firmware.
I wonder why updates are so slow on this model

It wasn't working on slot 1 no. Only slot 2.
I have a feeling the CSC has to be specifically programmed to work in slot 1 (Snapdragon constraint maybe ?), and so maybe only HK networks have been added to CSC slot 1 list (only my theory).
Also the Snapdragon 865+ can only do 5G+4G when you have 2 SIMs, it cannot do 5G+5G with both SIMs in the phone. But I haven't tested 2x SIMs in the phone yet and whether I can still get 5G with dual SIM.

I was looking at Note 10+ HK (TGY) model vs Note 10+ UK (BTU) model on sammobile, and although the updates are less frequent they always seemed ahead on HK version. So maybe it's just a hiccup for now, and we'll get a nice update soon.
If you want to compare yourself
HK

Just did a manual check this morning and the September patch came through for the N9860 HK TGY. So the ATI3 build has arrived!
300mb worth of updates, including camera, Internet and system improvements.
The update speed doesn't seem to be too shabby...

Got it too, downloading! Funny enough I checked just yesterday and there was no update! It says camera was improved so I wonder what exactly.
Anyway Exynos is still miles ahead with updates.
I hope Samsung will fix all this Exynos fiasco in the next year or two so we won't have to import phones.
Added: It seems they improved a lot the slow shutter issue in cameras. Good news!

Can you please try to see if 5G is working with this newest update? I wonder if they fixed it now.
Does anyone know if ATI firmwares are newer than ATH firmwares? Because there are ATH3-ATH9 firmwares and ATI is up to 5. I wonder if our phone just skipped ATH3-ATH9 and just jumped to newer ATI3 or if ATI3 is still older than ATH3-ATH9.
Can't check the 5G situation unfortunately as I'm not on a 5G plan and nowhere near a 5G area.

Thanks, it seems they deliberately blocked it which is crazy. I wonder if HK users have the same issue. 5G should be available everywhere, what if someone travels abroad? They advertised 5G so heavily!

The phone itself supports VoLTE, but it still depends on countries and carriers to config and activate the function for each device.
As it's a Korean-only model, it may not be supported in your country. However I have seen N models having VoLTE in Vietnam, so YMMV.
