Try flashing PF2 to see if it works then just OTA again?

My phone is unfortunately on bootloader 3 whereas PF2 is bootloader 2... The phone can't go back and Odin immediately fails when trying to flash PF2.

You verified that the new software has the v3 bootloader? There are a bunch of different odins to try. Try all of them.
But unfortunately there is no fw released yet for pg1. It needs to be leaked. AT&T is the only carrier that doesn't release their FWs. I'm not sure how they get away with it.

Hmmm. Not sure I trust foreign sites but without someone taking the chance we wouldn't have the PF2 FW

That's the site they got the 935a and 930a fw from. It's legit.

Yes it is. The fw in the stock thread for the 930a apf2 and 935a apf2 is from that site and @nugzo just posted the pg1 from that site in the thread with the title "July Update. Wifi Calling AT&T."

Yes, I have odin'd to pf2 twice now from pg1 then took the Ota again. Not sure where your getting this bl v3 from...

Did you flash the BL file in Odin when you went back or just the 3 other files without the BL?

Just the other 3

Whats the issue or error even if BL is flashed or why is not recommended to flash BL ?

Well, I made the dumbass decision to root. That didn't last long. Using Odin just flashed the 3 other files and after it downloaded the OTA it continually fails to install.

I used Odin to go back to the June update 2x from the July OTA update. I flashed all 4 files without issues. I used the 3.12.3 Odin . I am getting the notification to install the July update still but I ignore it or clear the phone cache then try to install it so it fails. Usually I dont get the pop ups for a couple days after that.

All 4 yes. When I flashed BL finally it installed OTA fine.
You've been saying he can OTA flashing everything but BL. You cannot in fact do that. You have to flash all 4.

I have only ever flashed the 3. Done this twice on my phone, once on a buddies. So thats simply not the case. When he said the install failed was that the install of pf2 or the ota install. Remember you need to use the "official" aka not prince version of odin to install the pf2 files. As far as the ota goes, no idea what you giys are doing wrong. My process has been, odin 3.12.3 pf2 all but bootloader, setup phone, connect to wifi, search for ota, download ota, install ota, finish "personalizing" device, odin with prince cosmey the engineering bl, reboot, root, reboot, supersu pseudo and enable su from boot, reboot, then flashfire v15 script, reboot, flashfire xposed, reboot. Nevr have i once had an issue.

The OTA will fail on install after download if the system has been modded at all. So all 4 need to be flashed to be fully stock.

Firmware SM-900H

Anyone have firmware or know where to get it for the international version of the Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-900H? I received a free one that is soft bricked. Someone tried to downgrade from LP to KK and it did not got well. I found one site called SamMobile but you have to pay to get the download.
Use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647
Or you can just use Kies to restore your phone since it has a recovery option
Um....unless things have changed, sammobile don't charge for downloads......I've downloaded numerous firmwares from that site.....

I was under the impression that recovery was part of the kernel on samsung devices. That being the case, I hope you are running marshmallow on your device because flashing a MM kernel onto a KK or LP build won't work......

Downgrade apg1 to pd8?

Is it possible if so how to do it
Don't think so. I heard that the bootloader is different in PD8. Can't hurt to try though, right?
let me know if you can I would like to downgrade to PD7 so I can flash SM-G935U since it is also U2
---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------
You can try flashing the ENG BOOT then downgrading it to PD8
Yes its possible. Go to the firmware thread and download the pd8 firmware and extract it. Open Odin and put each file in it's respected place (file that starts with ap in the ap slot, CSC in the CSC slot etc) and then flash. After reboot you should be good to go. Warning though, make sure you have everything backed up somewhere else though because it will wipe your entire internal data.

Even on PD8 since it is V3 boot loader it will not allow since the error message states you are trying to downgrade the boot loader from V3 to V2. As anyone has tired to go to PD7?
the guy here is this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/help/yes-downgrade-apg1-to-apd8-t3450382/page2 said you can flash "downgrade APG1 to APD8!!!!!" he has not responded to any one yet. we want to see some proof. he also said

I don't believe we can flash it on anything with a v3 bootloader.
We're out of luck until the SM-G935U's bootloader is updated.
Apparently T-Mobile is the only one pushing out the new bootloader. ATT & Verizon can still flash SM-G935U firmware.

Yeah - and if TMO kept it's "promise", it would have been unlocked....
I don't understand what the big deal is? I was on pd8 and did Odin (NOT OTA) to pg1. I then did Odin from pg1 to pd8. Why is everyone trying to figure out of it works? What's different about the bootloader because I even flashed the pg1 bootloader and then went back to pd8.

Flash T-Mobile S7 ROM on AT&T S7

Hey XDA,
I just recently purchased a AT&T S7 (SM-G930A). I also just recently found out that AT&T doesn't push updates to non AT&T network phones. I am using the phone with T-Mobile and I was wondering if it was possible to flash the T-Mobile stock rom without tripping Knox or anything of that sort. I remember being able to do this to my AT&T Note 2 back in the day. If it is possible, can someone kindly link me to the file and instructions on how to flash the stock ROM from T-Mobile? Thanks!
You can, however once you do you can't go back. It may be possible in the future, but Tmobile has a v3 bootloader, and AT&T is still on v2 bootloader.

Thank you! One more question, I have the stock T-Mobile ROM and for the CSC, there are two files:
CSC and HOME_CSC
Which one do I choose in Odin for the CSC option?
Thanks
When attempting to flash using Odin 3.12.3, I get this error in the log:
FAIL! SHA256 is invalid
This seems to be because of a corrupt file?
I downloaded the ROM from two different sources now and still I get the same error.
Thanks

So TMobile ROM on 930A . Any issues ? Did you try going back to AT&T ROM
All that talk out bootloader versions and not able to restore back to AT&T ROM
Can you odin Unlocked 930U version ?
I'm using Cricket on AT&T S7 variant and I couldn't get any update from AT&T, which pissed me off. So I decided to flash G930U firmware and I succeeded. But unfortunately, there isn't a single G930U update been released so far, which is quite surprising.
Other than the update, I'm extremely satisfied with the new firmware. It's so fast and clean comparing to my previous bloated AT&T firmware, free of all kinds of overheating, battery dropping, slowing down, crashing, auto-restarting, bugs and lags (Just so you know, my G930A firmware was the newest. I had to take my phone to Best Buy to update. And I used PDP to disable bloatwares). I highly recommend everyone to flash G930U. The new firmware also has an APP called Samsung+. It's very useful and it tells you if it detected slow charging, or reminds you to restart your phone if it hasn't been restarted for a while, etc.
I'm still wondering if I can receive OTA after flashing anther variant firmware, but I can't confirm since there's no update for G930U yet. I'm curious to know if OP could receive any T-Mobile update after flashing.

I flashed to the latest update of the ROM so I can't prove it works. But from what I've heard, after flashing the ROM you need to factory reset the phone so it can unregister from att and register to whatever carrier you are using it on. I am not sure how true this is but I read it somewhere and it seems to make sense.

if you ever switch ROMs please check about the issue of bootloader version and not able to revert back .
Not able to revert back is the only issue keeping me from odin to T mobile ROM
If bootloader version is a problem then you cannot flash 930U firmware also
Is that so ?

I'm not sure what bootloader the G930U has. The att ROM has v2. If it's newer than that, then downgrading isn't possible. Is its the same, then it should be fine.

I was also able to flash the 930T on my 930A. I saw there was a Note 7 port but you need root and TWRP. Haven't tried flashing back to 930U yet, but thinking about it.

I just received security patch update in 60mb.

I'm a relative noob to flashing rom's. Can someone tell me if I'm understanding this correctly?
Installing this update will *unroot* my phone? So after installing this update through odin, I will need to install twrp again while in download mode? And then, once that's installed, reroot my phone?

IF you are on CRG3, there is a post with the OTA file to CRH1. That file I believe you can download and flash.
If you're outside the US just flash U1, now you get OTAs problem solved.

Try the Odin I mentioned in this thread post-- it had no issues for me when I was alternately receiving either SHA256 or RQT_CLOSE when trying to take the stock release just prior to the one which came out in the past couple of days to the stock unlocked XAA release of 7/19/18. It also took me back from the XAA to the same stock ATT, and since this one is still BL5 I am guessing you might have luck with it.
