How to updare international firmware for FOLD2 - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers

I want to install the international rom for my FOLD2 machine, the model number is SM-F916N (korea). I want to wipe the Korean carrier apps like an international version. Please guide me. Thank you . I will donate if can help me .

Hope I didn't get your hopes up with this reply. Only want to say that I too am in this situation, except mine is from China. I'm hoping there's a way to flash or mod it so somehow get the normal international version (or US), as the galaxy store is locked to China, which cripples the phone. Here's hoping someone has figured this out...

Have you actually done this or know anyone who has, or are you simply assuming it's that easy?

I have done several times for many of my devices like Note 9, A50, J7...
It is easy. You have to keep minimum 60% battery to do this

Help needed

Hi,
last week i bought a Samsung note 10.1 from china. When i got home i found out that i don't have Google play and other Google apps. I read that i could just change the room without rooting the device, using Odin.
Can someone please explain me exactly how i do it, how do i choose what Rom i need, etc?
Here are some details:
Model: GT-N8010
Build number: JZO54K.N8010ZCCMB1
Android:4.1.2
Thanks in advance!
top right corner = search bar. Use words flash with odin snote 10.1...
Just ROOT your device and install google play
when that doesn`t help enough change build.prop
Here some info that might help u
no need to change entire rom
I prefer not to root it if not needed.
Can i use any rom that i want?
Yes u can....
But most roms are already pre rooted so i see no gain from this
Not from sammobile... These are stock samsung roms... You need to join and find a rom you want. Just be aware that people have had problems with flashing chinese roms onto other countries tablets, seems to be around modem.bin in the flash, this may also affect you too....
Just to be completely sure, i can use this ROM with Odin even though i bought the note from China/Honk Kong and i am gonna use it in Israel?
Thanks for the help
The question i would ask first is it a genuine Samsung Galaxy Note not some fake / clone .

Yes, it is genuine

In that case pick the rom for your model and country .
See post 2 this page .

So have you succeeded in flashing any stock rom which includes playstore?
cause when I flash it, it fails at flashing the modem.
I succeeded but it won't boot so i flashed the original back...
We have a second exact note 10.1 that was also bought from china/honk kong and we asked from the seller to have a regular rom, and now i have a non-Chinese rom on my second note.
I'll try to ask him how he did it next time, maybe 2-3 weeks.

Try Mobile ODIN... Others have had success using this BUT make sure you have either a nandroid backup or the stock rom...Preferably both...

You can't flash this on any other variants as the Korean variant has Snapdragon 800 processor. You may end up bricking your device in the process of flashing incompatible firmwares.

I believe that's the case with most phones, unless they're flagship devices. I'm pretty much done with "romming", though. Changing system fonts was my other pull towards customization/rooting (I absolutely hate Roboto), but thanks to FlipFont and a certain PlayStore application, I can now use whichever font I fancy (without needing to root). I do hope there's a Kitkat update on the horizon, though.
Slowly killing me, seem we are not loved by samsung

Guess it'll not work on N7500 right? I know it wont, but cant do anything else other than to ask you.
Language support??
Is it korean only language or multi?
N750S is the Note 3 Neo model with Snapdragon 800 processor sold only in Korea so ROM cannot be flashed on any other variant of the Note 3 Neo.
Can someone post a change log and some screen shots of ROM to show the changes compared to Jellybean .

What I was getting at is I have a note 3 nc5 stock rooted and I have been looking for a original kitkat 4.4.4 and have been looking for some time,
I guess u would call me a nub..... But I can't seem to find what I want do u know some threads or have any advice thnks☺
Don't think 4.4.4 is released for our device as stock.
Agree with above... Hasn't been released yet!
Sent from my SM-N9005
Reportedly the N900P (Sprint Note 3) has received the 4.4.4 stock, but we might have to wait a lil' longer.
Ok, thank you
Ok so I have been searching all day and I can't seem to decide which custom rom is going to be running on Android 4.4.4,
But is closely built like TW

Let me explain a few things which every new member seems to learn the hard way (I learned the hard way).
Let's take for example the i9505 and the i337. Both Galaxy S4s, both with Snapdragon 600.
I didn't notice the small, but brutally important fact that there is an ENTIRE FORUM for the i337 (I owned an i337), but tried to root it using tools for the i9505.
1. It didn't work.
2. I was lucky I didn't get a brick.
So, they look the same, they behave the same, have the same hardware, but for all intents and purposes, treat them like completely DIFFERENT devices.
So, if you flash the Sprint firmware...
1. Odin will most likely not let you do it.
2. Even if Odin lets you, you might:
a) get a brick, hopefully a soft one, around 90% chance this will happen.
b) around 10% chance - you get a semi-functioning device, with com.android.whatevers crashing ALL the time, no wi-fi, no calling, no NOTHING.
c) extremely unlikely option (some 0.00001% chance) the Sprint firmware actually works. And no, with 0.00001% chance of success I don't mean "it might work, why don't you try it?", it means "don't f***ing do that stupid s**t".
So I'm available available to receive the firmware for the NH7, but I am not really sure how this mostly security based update will do for me on a day to day basis,
If some has a few minutes to explain how I will be better of then I am now on nc5 sprint note 3

[Firmware] G935UUEU4API3 Odin Files & Modded Odin

I know there's another thread for this but it's an absolute cluster F*** to make heads or tails of. I wanted to simplify things.
Simply download files, download modded Odin and put files in proper slots in Odin.
This is will give you stock U firmware with the latest PK1 modem. Root isn't what it used to be so I don't bother with it, please don't ask me for root files and instructions of this firmware.

Here's the modded Odin that I used. This is from the root thread and never once failed to flash anything on any device I've thrown at it: http://d-h.st/gsDA
Thank you for simplifying this process.
You're welcome. I'm here to help.... The other thread was too much of a mess!
Thanks joe3681, for all of your efforts.
Where online can I find a list of updates or a version history for the Samsung S7 Edge (T-mobile)?
so this will work with the latest update from November? and also what are the benefits of U firmware? I haven't been able to find any good info anywhere. i have rooted and flashed before lol i just haven't been in the game for a while
U firmware seems smoother, it's bloat free. Only real downside is no advanced messaging.

No, the U firmware is still the September security patch level. It's so much smoother/faster though. Especially rooted.
Thank you so much, this was obviously 100x easier to follow than the other thread.

Not so sure about that.. Seems laggy still compared to stock and gets hot easier even after cpu fixes

I followed the O.P. in the post root issues thread, doing nothing more and nothing less than what they said to do. No lag, normal temperature.
Thank you
OP thank you for the easy to follow instructions. I just bought my SM-G935T from ebay. I noticed some lag with the S7 Edge and of course all the Samsung and T-Mobile bloatware.
I flashed all of the files then did a system cache wipe. I have not noticed lag so far and now have 20 GB of the 32 GB free.
One question though. Where will the phone check for updates? Will it get updates from Samsung or T-Mobile?
TWRP help
.
I just got my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge and have been doing a lot of reading here on XDA about this device. I have had all the galaxy's since Galaxy II.
I have rooted / custom recovery / custom ROM all of them. I know there basically is not much out yet as far as ROMS go for the S7e, but I would like to instal
TWRP and root the phone. I can not seem to get a straight answer as to how to do this exactly. Each "How-To" that I run into are a little bit different and scares
me a bit. If you could help me with any answers or links to my question(s) I would sure appreciate it.
1) I would like to odin into the phone the latest TWRP but I am not 100% sure which file to flash.
2) I would like to ROOT the phone if it is fairly safe at this point in development, but again I have heard of at least 2 different methods to do this.
3) Please advise on which file to use and/or method. My phone DOES connect up with my PC just fine via USB and I have ADB working also.​

Also ... if TWRP isn't working then what custom recovery are you and all using ? Clockwork ...?

Well if you continue searching and reading some more, you will see that twrp only works on non locked bootloaders. Any carrier driven Samsung device has a locked bootloader and twrp will not work. We have the snapdragon and not the exynos. If you need to have twrp then you need to get an S7 edge Exynos version. There is no working custom recovery for the snapdragon version phones as of yet.

Yeah, you'd think! The international is the one that gets everything first.
The unlocked firmware favors T-Mobile though offering T-Mobile customers features that other users don't get.

(HELP) Noob question

Sorry if this question is quiet irrelevant to the section
But there is a new Galaxy skin in fortnite just for Note 9 and Tab S4 users
is there anyway to fool how they check the device version so I can appear to them as note 9 users instead of s8+ So I can take the skin without having to pay a 1000$ Mobile

If you have root, you can change /system/build.prop to spoof your S8+ as a Note 9. The problem is, no one knows the codename for the Note 9 (Although it is rumoured to be "crownlte" and "SM-N960F"). Even people who have gotten their hands on Note 9s early can't get the skin on their account until official release. That's probably when it should work.

I play Fortnite with my rooted S8. In essence what you need to do is disable USB debugging and use Magisk hide on the Fortnite app and installer, then hide Magisk Manager and use Magisk core. (Delete the MagiskManager folder in internal storage if necessary). And that's how you play Fortnite with root.
