Wow how am I so far behind?

G928PVPU2BPD2 is the latest update for Galaxy S6 edge+ , why are you trying to install it on S7 Edge ? Does it work ? @fireproof34

Nope I must have gotten the wrong build number.

if you are on the unreleased build, it's the same build AT&T released via OTA, you are on the official build.

Is this true? AT&T's OTA for the S7 (Flat) is the same version that I got from the unreleased 7.0 thread?
I bricked my phone trying to go back to PK1, AT&T is sending a warranty replacement but my Wife's phone has this update too. Had I known I wouldn't have even touched it!
So in other words I should be able to receive any future OTA updates right? I should just leave my wife's phone alone?
I appreciate any help.
Thanks!

Hi,
If you sideloaded QA4 (or any build) you must Odin back to APk1 and then you can take the att over the air update. Otherwise, it will always say that you are up to date when you check on your phone.

OFFICIAL Nougat files for S7 Edge with February security build BQA6
If you have never updated other than using the att software update function on your phone then the Nougat 7.0 update should be available right now.

Sorry meant PK1 (not APk1 since you don't have an Edge).
Check out this discussion thread too:

Thank you very much! I've got the files, hopefully I can unbrick my damn phone. I have the teal screen triangle of death (Download mode only) and boot loop when I try to get into recovery or just boot the phone normally when I tried to flash the wrong files...
Odin to the rescue hopefully.

I thought I was screwed, the members of this forum REALLY helped me out. You should have NO issues downgrading and installing the AT&T OTA 7.0 update.

According to the Sprint reps post in the Samsung Beta app, non beta users should start receiving it tomorrow in waves. Full rollout should be reached by the 27th or 28th

LOL blasted!
I too can confirm that the update came. Was on beta PLN and would get the beta notice after every reboot. Got notice this AM and was aprox. 167MB. It said Nougat 7.0 and after doing the upgrade it just says QAA like the OP said. Also no notice about it being the beta.

Any idea how to get this firmware ahead of time for non beta users? Surely there's gotta be a way of making an odin flashable tar.

Mid, the size of the update for non beta users is 1409.70MB, in case anyone wanted to know.

Obviously V5 will not work since your oreo update is v6
There is a post in the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge subject here in XDA with full stock firmware, i can´t post the link because i´m new here.
I used that one and works like a charm.

Is there any root for Oreo AT&T 935A?

I'm not seeing anything anywhere, I just want to get xprivacy working tbh.

Jkruse just posted his root method for Oreo across Carriers. All credit goes to him. This was posted in the last 24hrs via the safestrap thread.

Switch to the U firmware. AT&T firmware won't update without a valid AT&T SIM.

Has 1000% to do with the firmware. Has everything to do with the bootloader. The bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked so perm root is unattainable on the 935A or U firmware.
