I have the unlocked S10 and downloaded a few Verizon apps from the play store. I'm with Verizon too. What features or apps do you want?

No, you will lose such things as Visual Voicemail (VVM) LTE Video Calling and VoWiFi (WiFi calling) Only phones sold directly through Verizon get those features.

When researching locked vs unlocked I read somewhere that this can be done at certain Samsung Experience locations.

When the files become available you definitely can using ODIN.

I want the hd calling, the option to use video calling during a phone call, I dont want the places tab and I dont want facebook on my phone, so hoping I would be able to remove those 2 things also

I think as soon as I can get the verizon firmware I will give it a shot using odin, cant hurt to try right..

ok just to make sure I dont ruin my new phone, my model number is SM-G975U1, the verizon version is SM-G975U, I can flash the SM-G975U firmware onto my SM-G975U1 ?

I would suggest heading over to XDA forums. They deal a lot more with rooting/roms/flashing/firmwares etc.

thank you, that was the place to go..some serious brain-iacs over there...I was able to flash my unlocked version to the version version perfectly...after flashing I also did not have facebook installed!! on the unlocked firmware I was not able to delete it from my phone which isses me off.
