Hi,
i have purchased the Samsung galaxy S8 SM-G950FD from Dubai, since i will be using the phone in India i have flashed the phone with official stock firmware . now my question is will i received the OTA updates as usual or i have to keep on updating the phones manually. also when i use the smart switch my phones shows firmware updated. but recently on the July 16th there was new firnware which i have not received. Could anyone guide what should i do as i am concerned. also how can i do the master reset . (the same csc and firmware as it came from out of the box )
so where exactly did you get this stock firmware. my carier's firmware update is really slow, i dont want it
Firmware downloaded from Sam mobile
I had downloaded from Sam mobile . But mine is international unlocked version . Please check your firmware and model before flashing . My model is SM-G950FD
Hi Everybody,
I need help in converting my S7 edge T-Mobile version to the U-Firmware in Pakistan.
Background: I got a T-Mobile S7 Edge. But the device was not performing OTA updates and the while starting the phone there was no T-Mobile logo so maybe a alternative Firmware was Flashed in some time. I have flashed the stock T-Mobile ROM on my phone and now it shows the T-mobile logo but my 4G is not working and the issue with the OTA updates reamins.
Model SM-G935T
Model name Galaxy S7 edge
Version Android 7.0
Changelist 12142063
Build date Tue, 02 Jan 2018 02:56:46 +0000
Security Patch Level 2018-01-01
Product code TMB
PDA G935TUVS4BRA1
CSC G935TTMB4BRA1
Task: I now want to install the SM-G935U firware on my t-mobile. As i want to get rid of all the blotware and i have heard that the U-Firmware is lighter and faster and battery improves alot as well. And probably make the 4G work again ?
The problem: I have read a thread that the U-Firmware does work in T-Mobile in Pakistan from a different forum. But i don't know which Country to select on the countries tab before downloading the firmware ? And will the U-Firmware allow me to run 4G again ?
I am searching SM-G935U on sammobile. On the first page i select T-Mobile USA from the list ( Is this correct ), secondly i dont know which location to select on the second page.
Any help will be appreciated.
Hi,
I have s7 galaxy edge on ee uk network but i wanted to use my 3 sim card so i flashed it with a uk s7 galaxy firmware using odin using all options but the 'bl' option.
After the phone had no signal i did some research and found that i needed to flash the phone with its proper firmware to recieve a signal.
So i download an ee firmware for the s7 galaxy edge and flashed with odin using all options except 'bl' and i still have no signal.
Does anyone have any idea what i should do.
The ee firmware i flashed was G935FXXU1DQG_G935FEVR1DQC1_EVR.ZIP
Thanks
Aaron

Hello everyone,
So the reason I'm asking for guidance and not straight up trying what I found is because this is my only phone and I cannot risk or afford fixing it if things hit the fan like i'd do with a spare or an old phone.
In addition the region code attached to it, the code is carried by different carriers and countries in the Gulf Area, some of which received Android 8 and some haven't. However since my phone wasn't purchased from STA, saudi telecom, I don't believe it received the updates distributed to the country,. So currently my phone was bought from a distributor in Saudi Arabia, which usually carries codes from different gulf countries. That region apparently hasn't received updates since earlier this year.
I'd appreciate just simple guidance for this process to get it right.
However I do LIVE in the UK and I would like to flash my phone to a UK region, I'm unsure which code to use and what files I would need to place in Odin.
Phone info:
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge: SM-G935F, Unlocked (They usually require you to use a local sim card for a 5 minute call after which it's fully unlocked)
CSC: G935F0JV1DQIL
AP: G935FXXU1DQJ8
CP:G935FXXU1DQIL
Would it be possible to flash to UK BTU as they receive more frequent updates?
I don't know if this has any bearing but I'm using a Three sim card at the moment.. However I have used around 8 different sim cards/companies in this phone since i purchased it.
I would appreciate any advice on what files to place into Odin if I want to keep my data. (Or if I have to completely wipe it?) or shall I switch to another up-to-date OJV country like Emirates (UAE)?
Also i'm not sure what home_csc file is.
hope to hear from you guys soon.

I purchased my device SM G935FD from Oman with CSC XSG (part of multiple CSC OJV middle east and some African countries). Even though I received OTA, I always install the full firmware upon officially released.
I upgraded my device from Android 7.0 to 8.0 using UK BTU firmware, the availability of which came first.
In short I downloaded the firmware from Updato (Sam Mobile slow and lagging) for the BTU firmware. Just to be sure you have to download the correct and appropriate firmware and also the latest Odin (Odin3v3.13.1) which was upgraded by Samsung to be utilized for Android 8.0 and higher versions.

Also, be sure to activate your Developers options and enable USB debugging and unlock OEM. Using Home_CSC will retain your user data while using CSC only will factory reset your device and start anew.

About Knox tripping?
Hello, I'm expecting to do something like this to my phone, but I'm wondering, will it trip Knox? Because you're changing the ROM, so I don't know

My Galaxy S7 Edge Dous is originally a United Arab Emirates stock rom, and I would like to flash it to Indian stock. The reason is India's rom has VoLTE (voice over LTE) and mine doesn't. And is it possible to root my rom? my warranty is long over by now. I would like to delete some Samsung bloat cause this 3yr old device is starting to show its age.
