One UI 3.1 ROM for Samsung Note 9 and S9/S9 Plus [SM-N960F/FD/N--SM-G96xF/FD/N]

We bring you the options you have to run the One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 on the Samsung Galaxy Note and S9 Series

samsung note9 and samsung s9

Samsung note 9 and S9/S9 plus were excluded from the list of devices that will run the One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 ROM, this is not because these devices are not capable of running One UI 3.1 but because of Samsung's 3 years major operating system update.

This is a sad story for the users of the aforementioned devices for the fact that they stuck with Android 10 forever. While hunting for a way to get One UI 3.1 ROM based on Android 11, I came across a very good option on XDA called NOBLE ROM 1.4 OneUI 3.1. for ONLY Samsung Note 9 and S9/S9 Plus with Exynos SoC.

I don't have been using the ROM on my Samsung note since its initial NOBLE ROM 1.1 release, I have considered this only One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 ROM you can get on the internet. The ROM works fine on Samsung S9/S9 plus as I have been following user feedback on the NOBLE ROM telegram group.
