Unlocking SM-n950u server. Failed [Answered] - GSM-Forum

beerfoote1 · 12-25-2018, 05:14

Please can you advise me. I have Note 8 G950U with December 1, 2018 security patch. Tried unlocking it with server credits, but patch is too new. Should I flash modem from a lower version COMBINATION FILE and attempt unlock again? Will this trigger KNOX which will block me from using server to unlock this model?
