Hi Everyone,
Does microSDXC cards work with Note 1? I'm thinking of getting one to replace my old 16GB. Not sure if it would work.
Thanks

I have used several 64gb cards. Work fine providing the phone doesn't seize up while writing to the card or you eject it properly but that would be true for any sdcard.

Which 64Gb card worked the best for you? I would love to use one on my Note, because 32Gb isn't sufficient for me.
Where can I buy a sim card tray for the Nexus 9 LTE tablet? I've searched ebay and Amazon with no luck. I'm hoping it uses the same sized tray as another HTC device with a nano sim card.
I've been reading various threads to determine if it's better to get the US or International version of the Mate 10 or 10 Pro
Is there a difference with unlocking the bootloader for the US/non-US versions?
Based on what I've read it seems to be more difficult to unlock/root etc the US version.
The Mate 10 specs claim that you can increase the storage via SD card in the Sim slot, but I checked a few Amazon verified purchases that claim there is no SD card via sim.
Lastly, I'm curious about ROM/Mod support, it seems pretty thin.
I'd like to install Magisk and possibly the ElementalX kernel. I typically install monthly security patches, but once I'm satisfied with performance, stability, and battery life I usually leave the phone as is.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
You are much better off buying a BLA-L29 and rebranding it as a BLA-A09 so it will work with VoLTE in the US on T-MOBILE and AT&T. If you try to do anything with a BLA-A09, you will likely end up bricking it. You can't force a dual SIM even though a dual SIM holder fits in the BLA-A09 and no memory card support.
Doing it the BLA-L29 way, you get the dual SIM and it actually works on the US rebranded.
That's my recommendation. I signed up for Funkyhuawei club to do everything.
Hope this is helpful.
I do prefer the P20 Pro over the Mate 10 Pro though.
Good luck.

OK, to make sure I understand this - BLA-A09 is US version, BLA-L29 is non- US. The BLA-A09 does NOT support dual SIM?
Rebranding ensures the phone works better on T-Moble (I use project Fi); what about APN settings - do they have to be tweaked to work with T-Mobile?
The ability to add storage is pretty important to me, so I was focusing on the Mate 10 over the Pro, if I'm correct, the pros sim slot does not support an SD card, but the Mate 10 does.
I assume rebranding is also important if I get the Mate 10 (not pro)
Have you tried to use the phone with Android auto? I've heard it doesnt work, and that the bluetooth connectivity is also dodgy.
Im reading Funkyhuawei on XDA now, thanks

APN should just come over naturally. But if you do not need a 2nd SIM, you actually are better off with the US version only because the cellular radio on the us version, the A09 is tweaked slightly better to pick up the US cellular better BUT software updates are like never on the US version or last in line. So it's kind of a toss up. I don't have connection issues with my P20 or my mate 10 and they are both Europe versions and I'm on T-MO. And P20 Pro does not support memory card either...

Also the L29 Version has more LTE bands so you need to compare those as well.
I was on the fence on these two models as well but pretty much decided the L29 was best cause if updates. I wish by now the A09 wasn't last in line as claimed (unless something has recently changed) I'm not really sure though but hearing about better cellular reception or stronger on the A09 makes me wonder if the L29 can be flashed with equal as to the A09 but again who knows.
I haven't purchased one yet as I need to sell 2 phones I have now first.

I found the Huawei Mate 10 ALP-AL00 128 GB unlocked for $575 with shipping, no tax. It will take up to 2 weeks for delivery via USPS, thanks for your advice.
Just be aware that only the A09 will have a warranty in the US. None of the international models or variants have warranty coverage of any kind when sold in the US (and they can tell what the phone originally was by the imei and serial number). Amazon sells the A09 and the L29 models (either one you can get pretty quick).

My question is if I bought the Mate 10 pro BLA-L29 version (cause of faster updates) but rebrand to BLA-A09 for VoLte on T-Mobile then will my updates be for A09 version (being last to get updates) or will my updates come from L29 for my device?

If you rebranded an L29 to an A09 you "should" get the A09 updates, there is an issue with the IMEI though as updates verify that number so an L29 rebranded to an A09 "might not get any updates as it would still have L29 IMEI numbers (not an expert on that though). With the lack of any warranty on L29 devices in the US unless you absolutely have to have dual SIM capability I would just get the A09 model.
Hello good people, I have a mate 10 pro which was single sim and I installed a dual sim motherboard last week. I am now sitting with a spare single sim bootloader unlocked motherboard, which was converted to C432 and it is up for grabs . I am in South Africa by the way
hey guys, my first post after many years here. I bought used Galaxy Note 9 in the UK, model N960F, received it in a bix of Samsung S8, but it doesn't matter.
Now that I have 2 sim cards, I had to order dual SIM tray from Amazon, put it in and it doesn't detect them. Videos on YT show them working.
The phone says it needs resseting to use new sim card tools. My question us, if I reset phone, will I be able to use 2 sim cards? I heard every Note 8 or newer phone supports dual sim. My is generation 9 so....
