Note 8 N950XU Live Demo Unit Security Error, need HELP !

n950xu change board from n950u

Hi, i have a Note 8 N950XU with Snapdragon, it worked fine with the pre installed Demo ROM, but i installed the N950U Firmware and since then it shows me Security Error: Unauthorized Software has been flashed bla bla bla, as you can see on the attached picture. I even got the original N950XU Demo Firmware and flashed it, but still shows me the same error! Anyone knows how to fix this ? Odin passes through with no error, but the phone never boots up, only the security error. I just want my phone back to working order :crying:

Change logic board from n950u 100% working i tested. i buy in ebay

If the phone was obtained legitimately, shouldn't these stores be removing the demo mode before sale? Otherwise, buying a unit thats not intended for resale seems like a red flag.

Demo mode was deleted/removed not the issue.

Demo mode was deleted/removed not the issue.

No the issue was having problems after removing it...which stems from the fact it is not intended to be removed in the first place because the unit is not intended for resale.... Which was my point, and it still stands

i think flash a custom rom will work

These units are not actually authorized for sale, so buyers should instead contact seller for refund.

SM-N950XU is NOT a device to be sold to customers, but for retailers only!

Where did you get this device?

The solution is on the screen...

if you have nothing helpful to say dont say anything

...It's been 6 months since the last post here. And he was helpful because he basically said what we all did: we can't help you use a phone that people are not supposed to own in the first place (because, theft).

Same problem here. Tried to flash a N950U firmware and ended up with the security error. I'm thinking about flashing back to the N950XU rom, but where can I get it?
