I've been on V15 of psouza's image for 930V since its release date. I'm lucky in that i haven't had the issue some have with force closes and infinite bootloops. The ROM i'd say is "settled."...my phone can deep sleep but I wouldn't say battery life is "great" (I use a ton of data hogging apps).
Would you say it's worth it starting over and going to the U firmware? Am I able to achieve the same benefits of the U firmware by simply freezing bloat or are there other things in that image that will make the ROM smoother / better battery? I notice with the 930V waking from sleep can be sluggish sometimes.

I haven't rooted on the u firmware so I can't give the the root aspect it. I believe you would have to use psouza image still. I'm on the u firmware with no root stock. I just wanted the stability back. My phone was getting very sluggish and data was acting really funny sometimes. There was only 1 time I had good battery life with the eng boot. Right now this is my 1 first cycle still need more time to optimize battery. I like it a lot.

I know it's not a lot of hours, but I did a lot of talking on the phone today way more then normal and almost had 4 hours sot. If I get bored I might try like some others have and actually flash a ROM but I hear you need to flash the eng kernel or something after still not sure need to do a little research. I'm not having any issues on the ufirmware besides not having wifi calling and visual voicemail.

The G930U firmware is much smoother than the G930V firmware. HD calling and visual voicemail can be used with a couple mods. I'm rooted on U and heavily debloated, with HD calling and visual voice, and I wouldn't ever consider going back to Verizon firmware.

How can I root the ufirmware? Would it pretty much be following psouza method?

The root procedure is the same on the U firmware as it is on the Verizon firmware, using the same engineering kernel. You would use the generic S7 or S7 Edge fix by @PSouza, not the Verizon fix.

I just rooted. It is noticeably smoother then on Verizon. My quadrant scores have dropped from when I was on the ufirmware stock. I'll give it a try and see so far seems better then the Verizon firmware root. A lot smoother and I haven't installed tweaks yet. I hope the battery is good will report back. Going to search those Verizon mods for the voicemail and HD calling.

Root & xposed framework
Can anyone confirm that after rooting U firmware the xposed framework can also be installed without issue?

I started having issues today ended up getting reboots I think a xposed mod might've caused it. I'm done with rooting for now and sticking to stock ufirmware until some updates come along.

Knowing, you can flash any other firmware over the U firmware, can we Flash the U firmware then China firmware to unlock BL, followed by flashing VZW system and such?

hidden menu and engineer bootloader
Hi, tried all codes to get to the hidden menu, even tried *#06# for imei but didn't work. I wiped data factory reset, and then wiped cache, before flashing the u firmware, any thoughts. Also, noticed do I need to use the original att enboot, and what is the verizon fix just incase I want to flash back to verizon firmware in the future?

We should be able to unroot, get the update and then reroot, no? Or does rooting permanently trip the counter?

Well, that worked perfectly, once I rebooted from unrooting I checked for updates, it came through and I applied it, now to see if I can reroot on this new FW.

So all you had to do is unroot? Did your tablet have the modified flag set?

That was it, just go into settings on Super SU, click unroot and then reboot. I haven't checked on the flag set, but under settings it still says "custom", so I am assuming the flag is set.

Well, I have an answer as to whether root will work on this new FW, and the answer is yes! One odd thing though, when it was done rooting and it rebooted, I got a message about the FW update failing, which is obviously wrong since I successfully updated the FW, it must trip something that makes the device think an update failed.

make sure you unfreeze any apps. if you uninstalled the apps via titanium then you may have to odin back to stock. some of these updates look to see if the files it needs to update exist.
also, if the update fails to go through the first time (after actually downloading it) and you the the error gotta use kies warning. just boot into recovery and wipe cache and try again.
as a confirmation, bean's root still works. i didn't get the update failed though. i rebooted fully after accepting the update before running the root.
i don't see much improvement in speed yet, but chrome is all i've tested as the old reader's site runs crappily slow in landscape still (but it doesn't seem as crappily bad). vertical runs smoother though. if the old reader is taxing on chrome then overall chrome should be better. i haven't run any benchmarks and never will. a 100% increase from .01 seconds to.005 seconds only makes bars on comparison charts bigger without actually affecting the performance in real life.

After I did the update and it was all finished, I did get the "update successful" message, I just got the "update unsuccessful" message on the reboot after rooting. I did forget to defrost the Knox Apps, but since the update was successful, it must not have touched those.

It seems much snappier and most of the lag is gone, overall it just feels smoother.
Agreed, it feels smoother, I haven't played with multiuser much but do you have to reinstall all apps on the new accounts? Would it take up a lot of space?

i've been through four reboots and haven't gotten the update unsucessfull message yet. on my first reboot after rooting i did freeze all the knox, fota and software update apps. so it could be why i don't see it.
Okay no joke, this update really did speed up my device. Not much lag when turning the screen on and unlocking it.

That's probably it, all I froze before unrooting and applying the update were the Knox apps (which I also happened to forget to unfreeze), I didn't touch FOTA or Software Update.

Definitely agree. I'll stick on Paul until it's proven safe to upgrade to mm. I don't even care if it's a stock mm rom. As long as I keep my bootloader unlocked.

I want to make sure we can still unlock the phone. We should be able to get a complete CM13 now if the bootloader can still obtain perm unlock and we have perm root.
I haven't seen any new phone released since our Note 4s that delivers every feature I want plus more, so I'm planning on sticking with our note 4s for some time to come.

my build number is not xx, it's the number associated with EE UK...
It has worked for some though, in case how I flashed it is why I've ended up with an EE build here's how I installed things...
1) Upgraded through LGUP using this build.
2) Allowed the ROM to boot.
3) Wiped everything through recovery.
4) Restored my backup from the computer.)
If you're on EE UK you don't have to wait for our carrier to release their Android 7 update if you have a bad mobile signal.
As until Android 7 to access WI-FI calling on EE UK you were forced to use EE's ROM.
On the V20a Open EU ROM WI-FI calling on EE UK works.

Flashed over an EE ROM... But hard reset after the flash from the boot menu as it would only allow me to refurbish through LGUP. Wi-Fi calling works fine and I'm well happy with the Android 7 experience. ?

I believe it is unfortunately, WiFi calling only activated for me when I entered an EE 4g contract.
Although on EU stock ROM Marshmallow, for me there was no WI-FI calling option.

I had this working perfect on all the EE marshmallow builds. Using a clean install of the OPEN EU v20a I can't get this working though.
No wifi calling option, same build number as OP but my software version is v20a-EUR-XX rather than v20a-234-30.
I know that 234-30 is the UK country code 234 and EE mobile network code 30, and as the OP installed the generic build, it must pick up on something which binds that software version to the MCC+MNC. I know it's active on my account as I've used it for ages. Any ideas?
I sent my EE LG G5 for repair and after 2 repairs due to horrible battery life (bought directly from EE on their ROM) they replaced it with a refurbished handset which is unlocked and have just upgraded to android 7 (v20-EUR-XX) but have no WiFi-calling icon.
What is this Open EU ROM that you guys are talking about and can I flash it on top of v20-EUR-XX without wiping?

I had this working perfect on all the EE marshmallow builds. Using a clean install of the OPEN EU v20a I can't get this working though.

It's configured itself as a UK build on EE which seems to be why WI-FI calling is working.
I believe you should be able to use LGUP to flash this build as you're on nougat already.
For information I had to upgrade as refurbish wasn't an option and then I did a hard reset... Maybe somehow that configured my build number to work on EE network.
Previously on marshmallow when I used LGUP and the 'stock" EU firmware provided here

I've got lucky then. Did you refurbish or upgrade?
I also restored my backup... Maybe that has something to do with it?

Deleting the cust folder, or everything but the EE folder within, changes V20A-EUR-XX to V20A-GLOBAL-COM

I wonder if someone with it working zipped up and posted their system/cust folder, it'd work.

my build number is not xx, it's the number associated with EE UK...
It has worked for some though, in case how I flashed it is why I've ended up with an EE build here's how I installed things...
1) Upgraded through LGUP using this build.
2) Allowed the ROM to boot.
3) Wiped everything through recovery.
4) Restored my backup from the computer.)
If you're on EE UK you don't have to wait for our carrier to release their Android 7 update if you have a bad mobile signal.
As until Android 7 to access WI-FI calling on EE UK you were forced to use EE's ROM.
On the V20a Open EU ROM WI-FI calling on EE UK works.

Maybe it would... Due to a few apps not liking root and the faults I've had with the screen on this device... I've not rooted mine or installed a custom recovery. I use Adguard to block ads and disable apps and permissions, I'm happy enough.

Firmware Downgrade Options

Is there a way to rollback to a previous firmware?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Sprint variant it's unlocked and I'm using it on AT&T.
I recently upgraded the firmware to the APL 6 version.
I also need help finding a method to root my device and remove all the bloatware.
All the methods I have found so far have been unsuccessful im guessing because its a newer firmware.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Since you are on the latest firmware which has the newer bootloader the furthest you can roll back is pj2. Some people have had luck rooting it like this guy but you have to be on pj2

^ beware if you root it on PJ2 you may end up having to unroot. I rooted on PL6 and couldn't call or text anyone. Did 2 days of research with no luck. I heard the same thing happens if you root PJ2.
Also, if you end up needing to unroot, make sure you get the most recent update file. For some reason Odin gives you errors if you use lower firmwares (at least in my experience).
Good luck man.

Search the forums for the pit file that will allow you to rollback. Rooting isn't really worth it though, just odin the u firmware

Why would you wanna go back to previous version tho? I suggest you flash the new firmware, the BQAA, it's Android Nougat. I updated and mine took aprox 20 mins or so. My disabled apps werent reactivated nor installed. Ill give you the apk i used for disabling if you want. You don't need root for it. I successfully disabled ALL bloat i dont need eg. Sprint apps, Amazon apps and etc. Plus, the new features are superb especially that ability to lower your device's reso. although its ugly af. it helps battery, a lot. And plus its much snappier. ill open a thread after a week of my experience to give feedback for those who are afraid to jump in.

My main purpose is to remove all bloatware i dont just want to disable them i play games on my phone and unnecessary apps/background processes slow device perfomance and and take up space. Im also tired of the sprint activation crap popping up.
If i can get a clean version of Nougat without carrier bloat then ill consider it but until then ill go with U firmware or root the 930p firmware

The new update has Performance/Gaming modes, i think that'll help. Plus, when you disable the app using a good disabler, it actually uninstall the thing and it will leave it for about 24 kilobytes max is 1mb. Which is barely a size of a photo. When you disable an app, it doesn't run nor slow your device because it's disabled. But it's your call budd. I suggest that you try it out first, give it a chance and save yourself a hassle of flashing unofficial firmwares with the risk of bricking ur 800 dollar phone. my opinion tho, it has gotten even snappier with the update. been using it for 2 days now, im opening a review thread after a week of using it for people that are afraid to jump in, u might wanna wait for that if u want. anyways, good luck!!!

Hey guys. Just need a lil help to straighten out a lil issue i have. I also have a sm-g930p unlock using overseas (outside the US). So i flash it over with the latest fw of sm-g930U. Which i think i regret doing it. My problem now is i'm a little bit fraid. I just want to know if i need back the latest fw of sm-g930p with same or newer build date to flash back. Or can i just grab the recent one on sammobile which as yet for sprint it only has the may security patch. Because the one i have install is june security patch. Meaning the kernel is 3.18.31 june 19 build date.. in these case should i wait till it's uploaded which I'm hoping but no sure it would have same kernel numbers. Meaning i would even have to wait further more for July security patch fw ??? Please help so confuse which would be my best option not to brick my phone on rolling back..

Tmobile firmware on AT&T S8+

So I took a chance and went ahead and flashed my ATT S8+ To Tmobile firmware G955USQU1AQEF with stock odin and I can confirm it's working 100% Wi-Fi calling, Volte, Video calling. Once i booted up it also registered my sim and proceeded to update to Tmobile firmware G955USQU1AQGA and I gotta say only bloat was tmobile app and battery life improved by atleast 40%

I ran Tmobile firmware on my S7 edge the entire time I used it. It got updated faster and had a faster speed test.
