Dear all,
I have seen many people talking about this issue but I still haven't found a proper solution or the final confirmation that this is an hardwere issue.
Here is my situation: I bought the phone 3 months ago in Dubai (I think it was from UK and unlocked at that time). Immediatly after the purchase I rooted the phone using Heimdall on linux and installed CM12.1 nightly (I lost warranty in this process and activated knox trigger, so I cannot send it for warranty).
Everything worked perfectly for around 3 months when, after frashing the 23 december 2015 nightly updated, phone started acting wierd with sound: I have sound everytime I boot but it disappear after a random amount of time (1 hour but even less or more). I tried to upgrade to CM13 but same problem, also LolliROM stock but nothing, so I decided to go back to stock firmware I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505ITVHOJ1_ITV. Unfortunately it didn't fix my issue and still the sound is not working most of the time, I also flashed different modems and bootloaders and I lost WIFI, so now I have no wifi and broken sound system.
Now I would like to collect all the information coming from your experience and finally fix the issue (if possible) or eventually establish that this is an hardware issue and the only way is to send it back to Samsung for repair.
Cheers
Try flashing another modem and bootloader.
Go here to find them. Look through the last pages to find the latest ones.
Here you can find a guide on how to flash them. Worked for me every time.

Make sure the modem is GSM and LTE. It's the LTE one that may fix your sound and wifi. That's why it is called wifi fix.

I have already done that, tried more than 5 different modem/bootloader, no luck. I have tried everything, also stock firmware from other countries, nothing. I am trying a deep clean now and, as last card, to go back to KK stock firmware. After that I will be out of ideas.
If nothing works it might be a hardware failure

Is anyone else having issues with their 910C and bluetooth after installing the 5.1.1 update? When wifi is connected and I'm using bluetooth audio, the bluetooth device will disconnect randomly every 5-20 minutes. The bluetooth service on the phone appears to stop and restart. Audio will being coming from the phone speaker until I manually reconnect the bluetooth device.
This happens after trying both COH4 and COI4 ROMs, factory resets and clearing cache. It also happens with any bluetooth device that's connected at the time. It even happens before installing any apps. The only common denominator is the 5.1.1 update and wifi/bluetooth connection. If wifi is disconnected or off, bluetooth seems to work fine.
Im facing the same issue. And it's honestly annoying.
Please someone should come up with a solution. Thank you

Greetings! After dozens of attempts and many hours of work, I found the solution, just replace the WIFI modem settings for band 2.4 GHz (G). Previously I had 2.4GHz (B + G + N). After I did that the Bluetooth on my Galaxy Note 4 did not fall once. If it works for you tell me. A hug. * Sorry English poorly.
Bluetooth doesn't disconnect anymore when WiFi is on after MM 6.0.1 update !

Grateful for the information! I have a question, you can downgrade to Lollipop after installing 6.0.1?
I did not try downgrade because MM 6.0.1 works well.
Hi I flashed my bacon to nougat. Aosp extreme. 7.1.1
But since that I have problems with connectivity.
My internet just doesn't work sometimes and sometimes I can't call or be called. And then it works for 5 minutes and then again no connectivity . and even with WiFi I have problems.
Sometimes. The pages load sometimes not. I don't know what to do.
I searched for fixes or modems but can't find anything to fix my problem. Imei and baseband are visable.
Does anyone know a fix to my problem?
I can't post outside link so I can't attach image of baseband number
Have the same problem over here, some people say they fixed it with flashing c7 modem or installing this

Flashing modem can be a solution for this but using that app,no!
Thanks for your reply.
I tried the heartbeat fixer but it doesn't solve the problem.
Reception and internet didn't get better. Still is disconnected most of the time with a few clear moment every now and then.
May I ask what the c7 modem is?
I tried looking it up but can't find anything.
All I found was m8 modem on oneplus forums.
And yes I flashed a different ROM as well but it stayed the same with the problems.
All were clean installs.
We are not the only ones with this problem, some people already mentioned it under the Ressurrection Remix thread and i have seen some other posts about this. I already tried RR and Lineage, i have that problem for a week now, at first i thought it was because i dirty flashed an update but no, clean flash did not change anything, maybe it will work with a older rom, like cm13, but i am too lazy to try ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
RR is doing great........c7 firmware is with RR, on firmware download section.

I just installed CP and BL files for G930T QE1 and AP and CSC files from here,
Rooted with mix of Goodroot by @Quickvic30 and Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V1.zip by @jrkruse (used supersu from v1.zip and root script from goodroot, edited root script lines to point to 2.82 apk), installed kernel auditor and set both cpu govenors to ONDEMAND, WOWWW, MY PHONE is completely **** free, rooted, faster than ever, no more lagging whatsoever, and just feeling so great of a device that I always knew it is but never felt by its performance.
Thanks @muniz_ri, He has always posted many firmwares that I used, I just was in process of upgrading my S7 yesterday, didnt see this updates posted by him and had to wait 4+ hours to get it from SamMobile, so I just uploaded to mega myself, hope it helps anyone.

I'm a nood to this, I want to use whatsapp+ however 930u has the default whatsapp installed and I can't install plus. Is there a way to remove it from the system? Thanks in advance for the assist
The BL and CP link provided is already the TMO version of the modem. No need to find an flash TMO modem separately for VOLTE, 4x4mimo, etc to work ? I am not looking to root. Just want to have a bloat free firmware.

Question: how do I de-bloat this sucker? I don't like all of these samsung apps on here...
I have not receive my S7 yet, waiting for them to ship to me. I am curious how did it go with you. Are you able to use Radio, VOLTE, wifi calling, mimo, etc. In regard to the Samsung Bloat, the only way is to root and uninstall. How's the performance and battery wise. Thanks for your feedback. . Hope to get my phone by next week.
OK, to clear some things up,
THIS IS OFFICIAL SAMSUNG.
I believe it does not trip knox if you are not planning to modify system. If you are please follow root guides.
BL and CP are from G930U, in my case I just flashed them and they are working more than good enough for my purposes, but if you prefer TMO ones, please grab them from https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...ware-g930t-qe1-android-7-0-5-27-2018-t3613122 thread by muniz and thank him for uploading them.
about usage: Battery life is excellent, however I am rooted so I had to flash engineering boot image, Which of course makes phone lag, but I took care of lag using Kernelauditor and setting CPU to ondemand. I let kernelauditor do its thing whenever I restart phone by leaving it alone for 2-3 minutes. after that I can not see any difference in performance of Stock 930U and rooted 930U. Adfree is a MUST for me so I love root. Try that and decide for yourself, Oh I love samsung feature that puts background apps to sleep. I think it has given huge battery boost and I go thru day with moderate usage easily.

If you want stock android experience, I did it on my galaxy s7edge, flashed the custom ROM from FlashFire. Please refer to this thread for more info: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/development/rom-t3572739
It totally worked for me and I am not going back, but I dont think that rom is available for S7, wouldn't hurt requesting if you really want it.
@nanunoran .....TY for clarifying the files. and ty for providing the link to the TMO modem.
Hello everyone, I am using G930T and already converted to G930U running QC1 (April 1. 2017) version of 7.1. What is the easiest way to update to QD2 with baseband ending in QC1? I prefer not having to re-install all apps and loose data as I have no root. Checking for updates doesn't bring up the notification that update is available for download/install. Thank You for your help.

Here is what i would do
1. Download matching G930U CP file from one of threads in this forum and odin it. So all of your firmware parts are now matched. You cannot get OTA update if firmware is hybrid.
2. Do OTA to update your G930U firmware to the latest one.
3. Then odin latest G930T CP file from another threads here in the forum.
Dont forget to wipe cache to avoid problems or issues.
Before you do everything above, i would say wait a day or two since another G930U is soon to be out anytime now. Check sammobile.
Hope above helps.

Fingerprint work for me.
Anyone having issue with samsung pay?
I did what the origin author did but without root (at least not yet).
Flash:
G930T QE1 for CP and BL files (CP_G930TUVS4BQE1 and BL_G930TUVS4BQE1)
G930T QE2 for AP and CSC (AP_G930UUEU4BQE2 and CSC_OYM_G930UOYM4BQE2)
I follow the instruction and able to flash U version with no issue. I have been using it since. I also flash the TMO version of the CP files and I am able to get VoLTE and WIFI calling. I did not experience any fingerprint issue or samsung pay issue.. However, My problem is that the U version camera does not have the shutter sound options to turn off. The Tmobile version have that option within the camera settings. Can I somehow get the TMO version of the camera app and odin it or sideload it. If so, where can I get it.
And to be quite honest, the TMO version doesn't really have that much bloatware in compare. Just a few TMO apps. Trust me, I use to be with ATT and their phones are bloat cancer.
@vinberry,
Which BL did you flash? Can you posh all the version of each file you flash with? thanks.
@gundamdx. I flashed the U version of BL, AP, CSC files as provided by @nanunoran and flashed the TMO version of the CP file. I have no problem with SPay. Also, if you are looking to unlock you sim, you need to do it while you are still in tmobile firmware and use their unlock app. The app doesn't work in the U firmware. It will indicated something like device not qualify to unlock. remember what I mentioned about the camera shutter sound if that's something that would bother you.

If you love that feature...check this out. This is the most current version that can be installed on our API 24 from apkmirror. When you install this on top of the existing device maintenance feature, it allows you to completely put just about any user app to sleep for good! It adds another section under "Battery" called "Always sleeping apps".
Description: "Select apps that will be put to sleep immediately when they aren't being used. Always sleeping apps will never run in the background. They may not receive updates or send you notifications"

Will it work on the galaxy s7 model from cricket wireless, It's the model SM-G930AZ
I really want to install other firmware because cricket just tales too long with the updates of software
I have heard of a website called cect-shop, and they are selling this device with the option for an international firmware with Google Play Store. I saw this website on a review for this phone on another website, and the review said that it worked fine with no bugs. Just thought I'd check before I buy. Has anyone experienced this website before?
Thanks in advance,
Nathan.
Beware: This is not official NUBIA international ROM!
I have bought the device from them.
Their international ROM is international and has Google apps in it, BUT it will not do OTA:
Unless they have changed the ROM (which I doubt) you are stuck at V2.39 and we already have
V3.09.
They told when asked that they would tell me when a "real" international will become available.
They would not take the phone back, since their rules only allow for this if the phone is bad.
So I have to admit that I feel fooled by them (all the other sellers do the same).
I have worked with the phone and have installed several other ROMs mentioned in this forum.
But am still waiting for a real international ROM.

Sorry, officially we are at V3.06!
So what does v3.06 have and v2.39 doesn't?
To be honest I do not know.
I assume it just 3 months "better", more stable, better translations, etc.
Thanks for the quick reply, what is the best way to install Google apps and also retain OTA updates?

Hi!
I just received my Nokia 6 TA-1054 yesterday. Unfortunately turning it on, it has a 7.1.1 on, with a patch from 2017-Nov-6. No update since.
Tried several method to get the OTA going, like factory resetting and wiping the google services framework cache after startup and checking. Tried VPNs different regions. Alao tried with and without simcards, before and after a factory reset. I did not tried an other carrier sim yet, but it did not get an update before I inserted my SIM so I'm not full of hope here.
My question is: Can I check if I have the original rom or had the shop installed some other firmware that would break the OTA?
Thanks for any suggestion, cheers!
Maybe I'm just thinking for myself here, but I figured if the device came with Play Store preinstalled, it ahould be some custom rom isn't it?
By the way Nokia support said the device should bbare an original ROM. They needed the IMEI1 to check. Can they know from the IMEI number alone?
Same problem

I have the same problem with my phone. I purchased it in China without knowing that it's a customized ROM. I want to receive OTA updates. Any suggestion?
Well, I sent mine back to the local vendor, because laws in Hungary allow me to do that, and puchased a gloval version from amazon.de.
The main reason to do this was that the china variant is not in the android one program.
As a solution, because global version started to roll out, if you can't switch the phone, I'd just wait until someone dumps their rom, and would try to flash that.
