Galaxy s8 active update outside US

Hi all. I have currently bought Galaxy s8 active to use it in Europe - Poland. It is a sprint / tmobile U variant. I have checked with samfirmware and since it's on G892USQS5BSF2 version - I assume it's a sprint version. It is hard to determine as they are both coded G-892U. Anyways the phone works well but the security patch is from last year and it's still on android 8. There apparently is an update to Android 9 but the phone won't update via OTA. And so are the questions:
1. Since they both are the "U" versions - can I flash the tmobile android 9 rom on it? I am asking because it's being used in tmobile Poland network.
2. If not, can someone reassure me that it indeed is a sprint version and flashing the latest sprint rom will do no damage?
3. Any idea why the caller id and spam protection option is grayed out? Is this because of regional limitation?
Thank you

Samsung S10e not Receiving Updates (SM-G970U)

Hello guys,
I bought my brand-new Samsung S10e this year in early July and I havent received any update since the January 2020 security patch, which I assume was installed when the phone was manufactured. I was wondering if there's any issue with my firmware or anything. I have seen some recommendations for firmware flashing, I am a bit freaked out about it as I have never done it and I dont want to brick the phone. Additionally my phone is the US variant (Snapdragon) and New Zealand where I live has Exynos for the Default, further convincing me that the phone might have no compatible firmware for where I live to receive updates. I also read that it is not possible for Snapdragon to be rooted and so I was wondering if I could get comfirmation as to whether or not I could use custom ROMs. Any help, suggestions, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated, I am desperate for anything.
Phone model number: Galaxy S10e SM-G970U 128GB
Thanks in advance

Your best option is to download SamFirm 5.0 and download SM-G970U1 firmware XAA code. Youll get updates then. Search how to use SamFirm and tutorial how to flash with patched Odin.

Are you sure that I use the SM-G970U1 firmware and not the SM-G970U firmware, I just really don't want to screw it up, is there a link you could send so I'm not installing viruses? Thank you

2x ATT Samsung Galaxy S10E SM-G970U on ATT's network, no software/firmware updates.

I have 2x ATT Samsung Galaxy S10E SM-G970U on ATT's network and they never receive the latest firmware/software updates from this page:
Software update for the Samsung Galaxy S10e / S10 / S10+ / S10 5G (G970U/G973U/G975U/G977U)
I need the latest G970USQU4ETH7 (GS10e) firmware or G970USQS4DTG1 (GS10e) firmware.
Is it just this software update from ATT is just for big OS releases like when Android 10 moves to Android 11? My phone is on the G970USQS3DTDB (GS10e) stock firmware from May 22, 2020. Please assist if you guys can get it for me?
I have already worked with ATT and done a soft reset and cleared factory partition cache and other things including changing the SIM and these are 2 replacements of phones that didn't get updates either. Please assist.

You cant get ATT firmware that im aware of. But you can get G970USQU4ETH7 for USC(US Cellular). Just download SamFirm 5.0 https://samfirmtool.com/samfirm-v0-5-0 And enter SM-G970U in the Model section, and USC in the Region section. Then click check update. After downloaded flash as normal with Odin. If you do not know how to flash there are plenty of tutorials. Good luck!

Or, if you want the G970USQS4DTG1 just follow the same process but instead of using USC in region enter TMB(Tmo) instead.

How to update my Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra(SM-N980U) to android 13?

So as the title says I want to update my device to the latest Android 13 but when I try and check for software updates it says that my android software is up to date, while I saw a post that the update is available for my phone (not sure if it's available for the US variant though). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Oh and btw I don't have 5G while my phone supports 5G, please tell me if 5G will work after I update after the upgrade, thanks.

Just keep checking back. Or look up Odin and manually flash the firmware. Yes 5g still works

I have AT&T N986U model but it haven't received update after feb 2022
Help
Please
