Will it unlock the phone or just put the stock firmware of Koodo instead of the Bell firmware?

It will just put the stock firmware of Koodo. If you want to unlock it, you'll have to buy an unlock code.

Hi guys, so I deccided to update my Kitkat to the new Lollipop. Biggest msitake this week. Its been 4 days that I've been tryign to fix this with no luck.
So I lost my LTE connection and I cannot get it back. I flashed so many modems and bootloaders with no luck. Some will give me 3g but never LTE even though the modem says LTE on it. Random reboots. Can someone please help!?

It says "Connection problem or invalid MMI code"
Mind you I tried different basebands and bootloader via Odin.

Can you please elaborate a bit? What happened? I flashed a custom ROM why did it do that?
And where do I find a stock Lollipop ROM?

1. This seems problem of the custom ROM. You can ask in the correct thread of the custom rom or simply flash stock lollipop (step 2).

There is no Lollipop for mine. There is only 4.4.2? What do I do here?
And isn't there a way for correcting this without reflashing stock ROM?

You can flash UK Lollipop firmware if is unlocked. They use the same Bands for 4G:
- Australia -> 4G LTE Optus 1800/2300Mhz.
- UK -> 4G LTE 800/1800Mhz/2600Mhz/3500/3600Mhz.

what changes are they?
The only change I've noticed is that my Back soft button no longer works after the the GOK2 update. Not too happy about them hosing my phone OTA.
My bad. I have a i337m and hoped that there was a complete collection for the i337.

I know that the AT&T and T-Mobile variant of the S7E can use the custom international firmware, but can our variant do the same? Like can I use any of the SM-G935U or SM-G935F, I know this is a newbie question, but I'm asking because I had a S4 and I could load custom roms on my S4, but I'm not sure about now since I switched to iphone then switched back.

Do you have the U phone? If it's the U firmware you have then you can flash major US carrier firmware onto the phone and vice versa.

So I'm guessing that the SM-G935F firmware is something I can't install on my SM-G935V, since its using different hardware than my phone? (Kinda wanted to ask because theres more selection on the F firmware than the U firmware

You're right. The F cannot be installed unless someone finds a way to port it over but the U firmware can be flashed without a problem.

And other carriers firmware (T-Mobile,AT&T,Sprint) can be flashed on the verizon phone, is that correct?

From what I've seen that is correct. There are different roms available for each carrier as well if you plan on swapping a lot.
Hi, I rooted my s8 a couple of weeks ago, but now I cant use my phone to pay and the phone firmware is buggy(Yes, I installed the stable firmware after rooting). So does anyone know where can I get a rogers G950U stock firmware? Sammobile doesn't have it.
Thank you
You'll actually need the 950W firmware.
That is the one I have G950U

rogers is a canadian carrier.
G950U1 = US Unlocked

do you want to flash canadian firmware on the phone?

Does the model no. change when you install another firmware? because i got this s8 from rogers but it says g950u as the modelno.

They have a pretty extensive collection. You'll likely find a copy there.

I have bought SM-G988U phone which is sprint locked. If i try to flash the phone with the unlocked U1 model would this unlock the phone or not?
Sorry For this but i'm still a beginner and don't know if this would fix my problem. If not, then what would you recommend please?
As far as I know it's safe....but as with anything involving modding your phone....be careful as one misstep could cost you.
Hey dude, I can confirm U1 works great on Sprint devices, currently using it and still getting access to the t-mobile 5g networks here in LA.

No, it will not Sprint device Network unlocked. Your device will still be Sprint locked. I do believe this model will actually fail if you flash in Odin. Sprint pretty much puts an MDM on their devices now preventing firmware flashing. If it does flash by chance, it will just remove Sprint's bloatware apps.

Successfully flashed.
I have a Sprint S20 Ultra. I'm currently on Sprints latest firmware ATE6. I downloaded ATEC which is Junes security update with USC carrier. It is U firmware as well. I am trying to flash in Odin and I keep getting a fail. Any ideas if Sprint has now implemented something to prevent flashing of other carriers firmware? I never had issues with my S10+. This is the first time I am trying to flash firmware with my S20 Ultra. Help please
sigh. all you need is the latest patched odin and you can flash the u1 or other carrier u firmware.
i flashed the att U firmware to xaa U1 firmware. and then flashed to TMB U firmware
dont listen to other people who havent been in the odin game.

patched one
I used the patched 3.13.1 version. Yes it is safe, I'm running the Sprint version UI firmware. Originally tried with 3.14.1 and failed 3x's. Also tried the full International UI firmware unbranded with the 3.13.1 patched firmware and the phone would get stuck on the SAMSUNG logo. My phone is sim locked to Sprint though and that's why I think it wouldn't boot the full unlocked version. The Sprint branded version worked like a charm.
