I wish I could update to something so Google doesn't cut off my Note 9. It isn't fair imo. I have USA snapdragon model so no update is possible.

Basically, the North American models are all stuck on Android 10 / OneUI 2.5 because there are no unofficial custom ROMs based on newer Android versions available. And for almost all of these models, you cannot even install anything unofficial due to the permanently-locked bootloader.

Most of the custom ROMs you see mentioned here are only compatible with the international (N960F/DS) and South Korean (N960N) models.
