For those who don't know, F707U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Galaxy Z Flip 5G. The F707U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
These are used for converting from one carrier's U firmware to AT&T's, or from U1 firmware back to U firmware with AT&T features and bloat. These are much tougher to find than other carriers' files due to AT&T's policy against public hosting of their firmware files - they can't be obtained from SamFirm or Frija or SamMobile. But I pay for a subscription to a site that gets AT&T files, and also sometimes gets other carriers' firmware files before they hit SamFirm/Frija, so that's where my files come from.
So I'll be uploading at least one USERDATA for each bootloader version, and I'll do the full firmware (for at least one build per bootloader level) if AT&T was the only carrier to get that specific build.
Since firmware is universal on U models, for a full flash you can use the other 4 Odin files (BL, AP, CP, CSC) from any other firmware of the same build. You can probably even mix and match builds (as long as the Android version is the same), if you can't find files for the exact same build. You can't mix and match bootloaders though, so the other 4 files have to at least be from the same bootloader level.
Happy flashing!

NOTES:
- I won't be providing detailed instructions on how to flash files in Odin. If you're not aware of how to do that, there are countless "beginner's guide to Odin flashing"-type threads here on XDA already
- I compress extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- My naming method for AFH folders is: build - bootloader - Android version.
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- If the phone doesn't do it automatically, the correct procedure for manually switching from one carrier's firmware to another is:
1. With no SIM inserted, flash the full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC
2. Upon boot, insert a SIM of the carrier whose firmware you want
3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it
4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want
- USERDATAs for any other CSCs/regions can be gotten from SamFirm or Frija - for the latest version. If you need an old USERDATA for a CSC/region that's not commonly found, let me know and I can probably get it.
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in SamFirm/Frija:
AIO = Cricket (not available via SamFirm/Frija)
ATT = AT&T (not available via SamFirm/Frija)
BST = Boost Mobile
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
SPR = Sprint
TMB = T-Mobile
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via SamFirm/Frija, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware

What (if any) are the differences between the US models (F707U) and the European models (F707B)? Can European builds be applied to US models? I'm asking because Android 11 has been released for the European models but not the US ones yet.

AT&T USERDATA for Android 11 has been added - build TL6.
I also added the full firmware package because I didn't see that anyone else had uploaded it on AFH yet.

I apologize if this is a stupid question since there are several threads about flashing different firmware.. Having not had a Samsung phone since S7 Edge, the process seems to have changed a bit. I bought a Verizon S9+ from a family member for cheap and I'm currently a subscriber on T-mobile. I'd like to flash over to the T-mobile firmware.
Current Baseband is G965USQU1ARB6
I believe this means that I'm on the v1 bootloader.
My understanding is I need to flash to the U1/unlocked firmware without a SIM and then flash to the T-mobile firmware after that. Correct?
Any rationale to picking a specific firmware since it appears there have been several updates since my current one? I assume once I get T-mobile on there I would get OTA updates via T-mobile from then on, correct?
Also, when I switch to T-mobile will I be able to get on the 600 Mhz Band 71 for T-mobile's LTE or are the radios actually different in the different carrier versions of the phone?
Thanks in advance for any help, and I'm sorry again if this is a stupid question - just having a hard time with the changes in firmware flashing that occurred after S8 came out apparently ://
The radios are identical between all U and U1 models, but the firmware isn't. You will find a Verizon phone won't work on TMB without flashing for several reasons (wrong APN which isn't editable, for one).
The latest U1 build is ARF4. That's also available as a U build for TMB. Flash to the U1 then to U. Use normal CSC so it will factory reset both times. You'll be golden.
If you want to be able to switch again, I recommend you block any updates TMB pushes once you're back on U, as newer U builds update the bootloader and you won't be able to flash back to U1 until it gets updated.
Good luck.

Thanks for the reply! I flashed the U1 firmware and used normal CSC to factory reset. Then I flashed the TMB one. When I boot up it still says Verizon and the software version says VZW/VZW/VZW still. Should I have inserted the TMB sim prior to the second flash? Did I hose myself now that I've flashed the latest version and its still VZW? Thanks

If you took TMBs newest OTA, you're screwed. You'll have to wait for an updated U1 build. No one knows when that may arrive.
For those who don't know, F900U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Galaxy Fold. The F900U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. A "U to U" or "U1 to U1" flash does not require a factory reset, but changing from one firmware to the other will require one. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
Manual Odin flashing is designed for those who:
- want to manually update to a newer version of U firmware on their U device, either because they don't want to wait for their carrier's OTA or because OTAs aren't working on their device, or a different carrier got a new feature/patch before they did
- want to flash U1 firmware to their U device
- want to convert from U1 firmware to carrier U firmware
- want to convert from one carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware) to a different carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware)
For those who aren't already aware, anyone can now download firmware for almost any Samsung device any time that they want, via SamFirm or Frija. There are threads and info about them here on XDA so I won't waste time explaining - do a search if you're not already familiar with these tools. But AT&T doesn't allow their firmware to be publicly available (for any of their devices). I pay for a subscription to a site that gets the official releases (usually) before they hit SamFirm/Frija, and also gets me access to AT&T firmware, so that's where my files come from. However, I don't have unlimited bandwidth on the site, and it's also quite time consuming to download the files, zip them up, and upload them to AFH. And, I do threads like this for every single Sx and Note x model - so I won't be uploading every single version. I'll definitely do at least one build per bootloader level though.
This is not a "beginner's guide to Odin flashing"-type post/thread, so I won't list basic, step-by-step instructions. My threads are geared towards those who already know what they're doing. If you're new to manually flashing Samsung firmware, I recommend you consult one of the "beginner's" posts/threads - there are tons of them here on XDA.

- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other CSC will wipe data.
- I pay for a subscription to a site that gets beta builds and also sometimes gets the official releases before they hit SamFirm, so that's where any of my files come from. I will only be posting versions that I get early access to, and USERDATAs that aren't available on SamFirm or Frija (AT&T). The newest/latest firmware files for all carriers other than AT&T can always be obtained via SamFirm and Frija.
- For USERDATAs (all the others are self explanatory):
AIO = Cricket
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA - Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
TMK = Metro PCS
- the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another is:

Interesting development, as we approach the release date for the now-redesigned Fold: U1 firmware has appeared!
I have no idea if they were planning for a U1 model all along, but that firmware never showed up earlier this year. I still haven't seen any new U firmware, but assuming that I get access to at least the launch version before the actual release, I'll post it when I get it
Build SH9 has appeared for the U model, along with an AT&T USERDATA. Files have been uploaded to the OP link

I don't understand your question.
First of all, numbers come before letters. 9 is older than A. If SH9 and SHA were both released for the same model, then SH9 would come first, and then there would be an OTA to SHA.
But SH9 is U firmware and SHA is U1. You can't OTA to a different model's firmware.

It's impossible to brick it. And yes, there are tons of very precise and exact Odin flashing guides here on XDA. Odin flashing is always pretty much the same process, no matter the model. Put the phone in Download, make sure you have the right Odin version, extract the zip, load all the files, plug the phone in, and click Start
What is the site you pay a subscription for?
I have a small question... will I brick the Fold, if I flash this to the Korean Version of the Fold (SM-F907N)?
The only version I could buy in where I live is the Korean version, which is a 5G model, but I really want to use my credit cards from USA. I guess I have to have a Fold with USA firmware to use Samsung Pay with credit card from USA, but I don't know what would happen if I flash this firmware... I am okay with losing the 5G, I just want the Samsung Pay works with my credit cards...

You can't flash it. Odin won't allow you to, because those models are not cross compatible. If you want a Fold that does US Samsung Pay, buy one from the US and have it shipped to you

G'day thanks for your reply--
ok-Ihave been researching your suggestions-- and the answer is not easy--it is actually complicated because of all the different firmware codes just in the US.,
I can hopefully track it down using my new phone CSC code(I'm learning fast for a newbie)
The reason why I need at least Android 10 is because I will be loading the 'Gcam7.4 and maybe higher.
If I can find out which US version of firmware to flash(and how to do it properly), I still need answers to the following--
---Because this is a US version S10 SM-G973U1 -fully unlocked and no Carrier--
(1) Do I insert my Australian SIM card into my brand new phone BEFORE it is turned on for the first time and BEFORE I flash the new US firmware?
(2) Or do I turn on my new phone for the first time, and flash the update US firmware BEFORE inserting my Australian SIM?

OK--thanks again.
Thanks for the model number.
The US phone will work in AU -A lot are sold over here through ebay and other outlets- there should be no problems here.
The seller sent me a message to my questions-''it does not matter when the update is done--before or after the SIM card has been put in'', so,should be no problems here - and you also say it's ok to leave the SIM card in while flashing.
I can't give you a screenshot as I am still waiting for the phone to arrive.
I've been reading the Frija page-looks easy enough for me to do.
Frija will give me the correct and latest firmware(on PC) and then I use Odin to install the firmware into the phone,correct?

Updating phone can be done with or without sim card.
Just make sure with frija to enter correct model number.
Download firmware, extract firmware ( I use 7zip ) put In Odin.
May still need that screen shot when you get the phone as may have to use patched Odin.

thanks again for the speedy replies.
I found the following youtube that explains easily how to use Frija and Odin to update the firmware.-
I used the model number you gave me and downloaded the firmware update.
I will double check when I get the phone,incase the number is different.
I have read about the ''patched Odin'', the youtube uses the patched version.
You have bee n very helpful,and this youtube shows how it is done.
I'll get back to you when I get the phone.

Link to patch Odin and original odin
You can use the latest version.
Patched Odin 3.13.1
For those looking for a modified, modded, or patched odin that is a newer build than all the fake and renamed prince comsy 3.12.3 versions floating around. I patch recent Odin versions to offer similar functionality to the princecomsy; in that...

Edit:
May also need drivers for PC

Sorry for the l-o-n-g delay in getting back to you.
I did receive my S10 -red color, as soon as I opened the shipping box,I knew I had been sent a FAKE.
I didn't have to open the retail package as I knew what to look for(thanks to youtubes about fake Samsungs).
The front and back of the retail box were identical to the fake one in the video.
But the seller also made a big mistake--they sent the wrong model(thanks to someone putting the wrong label on the shipping box at their warehouse) - they sent S10e instead of S10.
Anyway,it was easy getting my money back due to their ebay store return policy.
They know I know it's a fake and they are worried about the feedback I have yet to leave for them.
At this point, I am considering a refurbished S10 ''as new'' from a REPUTABLE online AU seller.
Or a new S20 FE Snapdragon, Australian version (plenty of retail stores have it over here).
What ever I get--I'll make sure it isn't a fake and at least,you've helped me to learn a few things,like going to Samobile to check the right numbers,and,if necessary, use Frija and Odin to update the firmware..
Have a look at these photos, tell me what you think.
I don't use an 10 series maybe never will
All I can suggest, since i'm using my device different to yours.
Check IMEI status ( check online ).
For on lines stores or furbished devices IMEI devices this can be changed. Not generally on US devices
Only a word of caution.
For those who aren't already aware, F700U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Galaxy Z Flip. The F700U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
Manual Odin flashing is designed for those who:
- want to manually update to a newer version of U firmware on their U device, either because they don't want to wait for their carrier's OTA or because OTAs aren't working on their device, or a different carrier got a new feature/patch before they did
- want to flash U1 firmware to their U device
- want to convert from U1 firmware to carrier U firmware
- want to convert from one carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware) to a different carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware)
For those who aren't already aware, anyone can now download firmware for almost any Samsung device any time that they want, via several tools like SamFirm or Frija. There are threads and info about them here on XDA so I won't waste time explaining - do a search if you're not already familiar with these tools. But they only provide whatever the latest/newest/current version is - nothing older. I pay for a subscription to a site that gets the official releases (usually) before they hit SamFirm/Frija, so that's where my files come from. However, I don't have unlimited bandwidth on the site, and it's also quite time consuming to download the files, zip them up, and upload them to AFH. And, I do threads like this for every single Sx and Note x model - so I won't be uploading every single version. The only full builds that I upload are ones where I get access to a new bootloader and/or Android version early, before they hit SamFirm/Frija.
This is not a "beginner's guide to Odin flashing" -type post/thread, so I won't list basic, step-by-step flashing instructions. My threads are geared towards those who already know what they're doing. If you're new to manually flashing Samsung firmware, I recommend you consult one of those "beginner's" guides- there are tons of them here on XDA.
Happy flashing!
U firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=305567
U1 firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=305568
Notes:
- DON'T QUOTE THE OP WHEN YOU REPLY, kthx
- I have lots of threads just like this one for other Samsung flagships, if it interests you.
- My zips are compressed extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- My naming method for folders on AFH is: build - bootloader - Android version
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other CSC will wipe data. Flashing USERDATA will also wipe data
- Since AT&T doesn't allow their firmware to be publicly available (for any of their devices), I'll try to always upload at least one USERDATA per bootloader increment for AT&T (and Cricket, if they get this model). I'll also upload any full builds if AT&T is the only carrier to get that specific build, because you won't be able to find the files anywhere else.
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in SamFirm/Frija:
ATT = AT&T (not available via SamFirm/Frija)
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
SPR = Sprint
TMB = T-Mobile
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via SamFirm/Frija, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware
- the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another is:
1. Flash full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC
2. Upon boot, insert a SIM of the carrier whose firmware you want
3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it
4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want
it's already available on samfrew and samfw if needed.

Yes, but like Mega, it downloads the file into RAM first, before converting it to storage space. So anyone with a PC that has less than 8 GB of RAM can't really use that site

Did this ever work?
Bootloader 2 updates are rolling out - both Sprint and AT&T are both getting build TG1. It's already up on SamFirm and Frija for Sprint, and I'll add the AT&T USERDATA as soon as I get it.
To add another option, I'm also adding all of the files for the last bootloader 1 update - TF1 - and its AT&T USERDATA. Those files are now uploaded to the OP links
Do you by any chance have an ETA as to when you can get the AT&T TG1 USERDATA?

Hi guys, I got a F700U/DS Z Flip, but I figured out that the national model that is being sold back at my country is the F700F, I wanna use my country's Samsung Pay cards, so does anyone know if it's safe to flash the F700F Firmware on a F700U/DS ?

Thanks to everyone in this thread for pointing me in the right direction.
I wanted to drop by and say I was risky/dumb enough to try converting the phone from the AT&T branded firmware to the Samsung unlocked/unbranded firmware and I was successful.
The reason I did this was because I had terrible service with Verizon on the at&t firmware. I tried everything. The phone refused to detect band 13, Verizon main band despite it being the strongest at my house (I know from other devices). The AT&T firmware solely connected to band 66.
Anyway, I used patched Odin to flash the unbranded (SM-F700U1, Region XXA). It booted up without the AT&T branding, rebooted once it sensed my Verizon sim, has no AT&T bloat, and connects to all of Verizon bands.
Service is great now. And the unbranded firmware is so much snappier somehow.
Anyway, thanks again yall. Hope this helps someone..
@SilentAce07 This is perfect! Thanks for updating us. I want to use an unlocked Z-Flip, originally with AT&T, on T-Mobile. I don't want to deal with all the AT&T Bloatware or the chance that it's somehow customized to prefer a certain band over another, etc. I'd rather go generic. So I wanted to flash the U1 firmware onto this U device. Where did you get the firmware from? One person linked to samfw.com/firmware/SM-F700U1 but that doesn't exist (404 not found). I found my way to samfrew.com/model/SM-F700U1/region/XAA/ but I see 2 different ones released July 31st, I don't know if I want the TB or the EU version (F700U1TBU2BTGE vs F700U1UEU2BTGE).
I've used a patched Odin before to convert a Verizon Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G over to Generic and then to T-Mobile, so I'm generally familiar with the procedure, but it was easier to find the U1 firmware for the S20 Ultra 5G than it's been for this Z-Flip/F700.

Hi iBowToAndroid, I've got nothing but mad respect for you and your posts. One of your other posts seriously helped me get my Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G unbranded. This is a great service you do for us and it's much appreciated. With the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G though you were kind enough to upload the generic U1 firmware to AndroidFileHost as well, so I was able to get the firmware for that one from AFH. But I understand that for this phone (Z-Flip / F700) you chose to just upload the AT&T specific version since AT&T doesn't allow their firmware on other websites, again, much appreciated. But this left me searching for where to get the U1/XAA generic unbranded firmware. Your first post mentioned Frija and SamFirm...
1. I tried to use Frija but I've searched for Model SM-F700 / SM-F700U /SM-F700U1 / F700 / F700U / F700U1 with the CSC of XAA and each and everytime I got the error "Error 102: Unable to find firmware for ..."
Maybe you could help point Frija users to exactly what to put in for Model and CSC? Just let us know what to search for / input into Frija and we could use that.
2. You also mentioned SamFirm also has it. But a quick google search for SamFirm brings you to https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647 and the very first thing you see is "This tool is deprecated. Please use fw.updato.com" so it seems like SamFirm is no longer being supported, but I went to the website fw.updato.com as mentioned and the only phone they have is the SM-F700F (international version). They don't have the SM-F700U or U1 that I could see.
So I was at a loss where to get the U1 firmware.
---
Then the first has a link to: www.samfw.com/firmware/SM-F700U1 but that results in a 404 not found. So samfw seemed to be a bust.
The first comment also has a link the (samfrew) website: samfrew.com/model/SM-F700U1/region/ATT/ which is confusing because it has "U1" but also ATT; I thought U was for AT&T (and other US carriers) and U1 was generic. But either way, I found my way to samfrew.com/model/SM-F700U1/region/XAA/ which is consistent with your first post about using U1 and XAA in conjunction for generic. Great! But then I didn't know the difference between F700U1TBU2BTGE vs F700U1UEU2BTGE both have the same date. So that's why I posted here, trying to get some clarification on just which one to download.
HOWEVER, to help others, I found on sammobile that I could select the U1 firmware, and odd enough I could select "USA (T-Mobile) (TMB)" as the country, which again confuses me because U1 is supposed to be generic, not carrier specific; and it's more odd because there is no T-Mobile version of this phone. But I noticed sammobile then poinmted me towards "F700U1UEU2BTGE" (UE firmware) so that kind of helped make my decision for me. I chose to download F700U1UEU2BTGE from samfrew.com and I flashed it with a patched Odin and it took. The phone booted up, generic, and seems to work just fine. No AT&T or any other carrier, bloatware.
tldr; So for future people searching, if you want to change it from an AT&T branded/specific model to something Generic, go to the website samfrew.com/model/SM-F700U1/region/XAA/ and grab the latest UE image.

Again, no disrespect intended iBowToAndroid, I absolutely did my leg work before posting. I tried my very best to find it elsewhere and through various searches. I wasn't just lazy and immediately asking for help like some others tend to do.

SamFirm and Frija both still work perfectly fine, and both pull F700U1 firmware perfectly fine. Literally just verified it on my own computer
For those who don't know, N981U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Galaxy Note 20. The N981U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
Samsung firmware flashing (if you have Windows) is done via a software tool called Odin. Manual flashing is designed for those who:
- want to manually update to a newer version of U firmware on their U device, either because they don't want to wait for their carrier's OTA or because OTAs aren't working on their device, or a different carrier got a new feature/patch before they did
- want to flash U1 firmware to their U device
- want to convert from U1 firmware to carrier U firmware
- want to convert from one carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware) to a different carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware)
So these files that I'm posting are used for converting from one carrier's U firmware/bloatware to AT&T's, or from U1 firmware back to U firmware with AT&T features and bloat. These are much tougher to find than other carriers' files due to AT&T's policy against public hosting of their firmware files. Anyone can obtain the latest/newest version of firmware for pretty much every other carrier (and also U1 firmware) at any time via many of the software tools published here on XDA - SamFirm, Frija, and SamFwTool are some of the examples. You could also download firmware from a website like SamMobile, but most of those type of sites are going to have very slow download speeds unless you're paying for a plan. I pay for a subscription to a different site that gets AT&T files, and also sometimes gets other carriers' firmware files early before they hit the Samsung servers that the software tools pull from, so that's where my files come from.
I'll be uploading at least one USERDATA for each bootloader and Android version, and I'll do the full firmware (for at least one build per bootloader level) if AT&T was the only carrier to get that specific build. Since firmware is universal on U models, for any USERDATA where I don't have the full build posted, you can use the other 4 Odin files (BL, AP, CP, CSC) from any other carrier's firmware of the same build. You can use one of the aforementioned software tools to download it, if it's the very latest/newest version released for that carrier. Or otherwise you can search on AFH or SamMobile etc. You can probably even mix and match builds (as long as the Android version is the same), if you can't find files for the exact same build - I would recommend getting as close as possible to the USERDATA version though (eg. if the USERDATA build ends in TKx, look for a TKx build of the full firmware).
Happy flashing!

NOTES:
- Please don't quote the OP when replying, kthx
- I compress extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- I won't be providing detailed instructions on how to flash files in Odin. If you're not aware of how to do that, there are countless "beginner's guide to Odin flashing"-type threads here on XDA already. Version 3.14.1 patched will be needed
- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other CSC will wipe data. Flashing USERDATA will also wipe data. Going between U and U1 requires a wipe - you'll have errors and crashes galore if you don't.

- the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another is:
1. Flash full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC
2. Upon boot, insert a SIM (doesn't have to be activated) of the carrier whose firmware you want
3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it
4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want
- If you're interested, USERDATAs for most other CSCs/regions can be gotten from the software tools mentioned above - for the latest version. If you need an old USERDATA for a CSC/region that's not commonly found, let me know and I can probably get it
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in the software tools:
AIO = Cricket (not available via the tools)
ATT = AT&T (not available via the tools)
BST = Boost Mobile
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
SPR = Sprint
TMB = T-Mobile
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via the tools, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware

Well yes, going through a 3rd party service is the only way to get the bootloader unlocked. But that has nothing to do with a SIM unlock, which also needs to be done if it hasn't been already. For either bootloader or SIM unlock, i can provide a recommendation for a reputable professional business if needed.
Yea I meant the uicc unlock, been up for way to long and mountain dew and pixie sticks are not cutting it. I am looking into one now, who would u recommend?
Just wanted to give a big thanks to the OP!

sim unlocking isnt allowed on xda.. typically its a grey area even more so than bl unlocking since usually its not possible to determine if said device was obtained legally and is paid off/owned by the user (not implying anything towards you of course) since normally to sim unlock a device is done through carrier once device is fully paid off and requirements are met.
That being said, if you want to bl unlock then you can check out my unlock thread and website but of course its not a sim unlock lol
USERDATA for Android 11 has been added - build TL2.
Someone else already beat me to uploading the full TL2 firmware package on AFH, so you can download that if you need the rest of the Odin files.
And from now on, you can expect USERDATAs to be added right away, when new bootloaders and new Android versions are released. Thanks @elliwigy
so i downloaded from sammobile for my note 20 att sm-n981u android 11 N981USQS1CTLC_N981UOYN1CTLC_USC so can i flash with odin if i use the USERDATA_ATT_N981USQU1CTL2_CL20412913_QB36415969_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar instead of the userdata included in the first file?
thanks. havent flashed a phone since my note 3

I guess you can try it. But why would you not have downloaded the full TL2 package from AFH instead, rather than a totally different version from SamMobile? AFH has much faster download speeds than SamMobile anyway
"But why would you not have downloaded the full TL2 package from AFH instead" is that in your folder? i only see in the tl2-11.0 folder the user file thats 567.2 mb ? thanks. sorry trying to do this while at work thanks again

No, it's not in my folder. In the post where I stated that the Android 11 USERDATA had been added, I specifically said that the reason I didn't add the entire firmware was because someone else had already uploaded the entire TL2 firmware package to AFH.
Hi, how do I go from N981U to N981U1?
How do I remove everything from AT&T?

Just flash U1. If you've never used Odin before, there are many, many posts and threads here on XDA explaining how to do it

Solo flashee U1. Si nunca antes ha usado Odin, hay muchas, muchas publicaciones e hilos aquí en XDA que explican cómo hacerlo.
