Sense these phone all have the same equipment in them. Can we cross flash the roms? Only thing I would think be a problem is the modem.
I've seen the U firmware can be flashed onto our Verizon variants. And I've also seen the V firmware flashed onto the U variants. I am sure that this would be possible with all S7's with the snapdragon processors, as long as they're the same processor. Probably the same for the exynos as long as it's flashing on another variant with the same processor.

Before release, the consensus was that Snapdragon version was the best to buy because easier to root and because of ROM development support. From what I read, though, the Exynos is the one you can readily root, is this right? Will ROM development happen only for Snapdragon still? Or is Exynos more popular now?
I know the Snapdragon is faster than the Exynos, but in USA, even Best Buy sells the Exynos version if you asked for unlocked. So my question is this, which should I get?
1) US Cellular version Snapdragon (spoke with them, they sell them unlocked if you add a pre-paid card and pay the full 800+ for phone)
2) International version Exynos ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...00332&sr=8-4&keywords=unlocked+galaxy+s7+edge )
3) International DUAL SIM version Exynos ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...00332&sr=8-2&keywords=unlocked+galaxy+s7+edge )
I plan to root and install a ROM when one is available, so which of these is better for me? ROMs for international version work the same if dual sim or regular? I'd like to get the Dual SIM version because for only $30 more, you never know when it might be useful... unless having a dual sim version means it would be incompatible with a single sim ROM.
Thanks in advanced.
Your only choice is the exynos if you want root, exynos also has better battery life, they're both equally fast. The dual sim version uses the same firmware as the single sim, i'd get it.
Lots of roms working. Xposed working. Get international version

The SM-G9350 is an unlocked bootloader Snapdragon Chinese phone, and it's true. However, I really want to use the SupermanROM. Apparently, there is no official support for it, but can anybody explain what could happen if I used an Exynos 8890 ROM on a Snapdragon 820 (unlocked) phone?
after rooting can i use any another software varient of the s6 egde+. since mine is an at&t varient,there isn't much there.and mostly all the mods and roms i have seen here is for the other varients.
will there be any problem if i flash the stock rom of indian varient in it?
As at&t uses also GSM network you should be able, just make sure you do use a kernel that match your model.
Hello, can I flash Sprint firmrware on AT&T Note 7 phone?
I did on T-Mobile version, but I need to be sure because I don´t want to kill my phone.
Thanks
Both are qualcomm chipset, but I don't know for sure if is safe
I already flashed Sprint firmware on T-mobile variant, but I dont know if it´s safe to flash it on A&T variant
I have a Canadian model SM-G950W which is a Snapdragon one.I have noticed there is a root available although not straightforward.
Even if i successfully root my phone,i am not sure if there are any custom roms that i can flash.
Can anyone advise if there are any roms available i can flash ?

No there aren't any roms because your variant has a locked bootloader.
There will never be a custom Rom for the snapdragon phones. At least not the north American phones anyway.
There will only be custom systems, which debloated systems. Nothing else, we can't get a new kernel, just new system.
