I bought unlocked sprint s7 G930P that I'm using with metro PCS, but it's not letting me update the profile (progress circle keeps spinning and times out) and because of that I'm not getting the wifi hotspot option (
it's completely missing from the settings). How can I get it to work?
If it is a Unlocked Sprint S7, I recommend installing the G930U firmware onto it since Sprint Stock does not play well with other sim cards even though unlocked.

Rooted superman 935F.
Okay. We all know Verizon is a CDMA carrier. However this phone does support the LTE bands. I put my Verizon wireless Sim in from 935U to 935F and I HAD data and was able to run a couple of speed tests and even hotspot for about 5 minutes then boom, I was kicked off the network.
So these bastards check whitelisted imei then blocked it LTE discovery giving error but was still "connected" and in service.
So... Is there a way to flash IMEI from 935U to 935F, and 2 incorporate elements of VOLTE from the 935U into the ROM and get it working. Technically it's "possible" but Verizon obviously doesn't want us to do this. Any developers have any ideas if we could pull this off I could finally get rid of tmaybie.
Why not using 935U?
I was wondering if its possible to flash the T-Mobile firmware on to my sprint s7 edge.. My phone is unlocked and I currently have a T-Mobile sim in it and it works just fine but I hate having all the sprint bloat on the device since I'm no longer using the phone on sprint network.
I have Sprint phone working on T-Mobile service,
Whit T-Mobile firmware.
Just flash the T-Mobile firmware via Odin and everything
Going to be ok (like if you have a T-Mobile phone)
s7 edge SM-G935P
Does the phone need to be rooted to do this? I just moved to t-mobile from Sprint, and some functions like receiving MMS messages, don't work. Otherwise I love it.
I was wondering if there is a way to get VoLTE working on a factory unlocked S8 that is using a AT&T Straight Talk SIM card. Right now when I make a call, the data goes to 'H'.
Anybody?
I'm not sure if it's possible but have you tried carrier switch your unlocked S8 to AT&T firmware. That's the only way I could get it to work on my unlocked S8 but I do have AT&T though as a carrier
How did you get it to work on att? I am on att as well and it does not appear to be working after carrier switching my unlocked S8 to att branded also wi-fi calling does not work.

It worked for me the first time but then the second time I went back to the Oreo beta they went back to AT&T I was only getting H after that when I was calling so I had to borrow my wife's phone IMEI and they provisioned it and it worked again
so how exactly do i go about doing that? I assume this involves calling att or going into a store and giving them the imei from another phone? Does the imei you use have to NOT be already used or can it be in use by 2 phones at the same time? Also so far we have not even told att about this phone we have just moved the sim card so wouldn't they still have the imei of the old phone or do they pull that automatically OTA? If they do pull it automatically then whats preventing it from getting updated again?
So, after reading through several different threads on several sites, the only DEFINITE answer to getting wifi calling on an unlocked S8, even after rooting, flashing, etc. is that you still need to get an IMEI from an ATT branded S8 in order to get the wifi calling, volte, hdaudio, etc. that come with a ATT branded S8??? Has anyone had permanent success flashing the ATT Branded firmware to a unlocked ATT S8 getting wifi calling, etc. to work without having to get a new IMEI? Don't want to have to go through the pains of having to return my unlocked S8, paying the stocking fee (if required) and paying the additional $100 or more for the ATT branded phone. Thank you in advance.
I called AT&T and switched my IMEI to an AT&T S7, but as soon as I connected my unbranded S8 the system automatically switched back to saying I had an unrecognized phone. I don't know what would have happened if I'd used the IMEI from an AT&T S8, because I don't have access to one.
According to ATT and Samsung the SM-950u is not att branded, they are been sold in swappa as such, i bought one and found out wifi calling wont work on this device as even do it has att firmware and the bloatware it wont provision. any ways to get this done by flashing the wifi calling provision from att
I had this working by flashing the att fw to a u1, and using my att sim, then i changed my imei to an att s7, but it stopped working and my ims registration turned off. I think they suddenly can cross the sim to the imei and block it. The imei on my account updated to show my u1 on its own.
