hi all,
i've been running the g935a handset with the g935u firmware for ages now, just wondered when you flash the u firmware does it unlock the bootloader on the handset? as when you flash the firmware you flash a bootloader file?? and does it make the phone like the u model as in can i root and flash custom roms for the u model on the phone???? probably asked already so sorry in advance if it was.
cheers for any info
I belive the bootladder is still locked in running 935bu firmware as well on att

Yeah I was thinking it probably wouldn't be that easy, here's hoping nougat update comes soon, last marshmallow update has made the phone a bit buggy for me.
yeah 935U APL4 drains bat a bit quick though i rooted the device and froze a dozen stock services...?

I was just getting ready to flash the T2 KitKat tar and just go back to KK since my N4 became unusable on MM due to shutdowns, non restarts and I guess just plain overheating running MM.. MM has done something to a lot of N4's tons of folks getting shutdowns at 20% or less of charge..etc. I have to let it cool for hrs or stick it in the freezer to get it to boot back up.. thus, the return to KK.. then I see this!.. downloading now and may give it try before returning to 4.4.4...

I am running this new update and so far everything is good.marshmallow is very well optimized only mistake many users do is they dont do factory reset after each update.
Flash firmware and immediately do factory reset so you can get clean fresh operating system.
I know factory reset sucks and pain in the ass to restore apps and stuff but trust me it's worth it.
The 20℅ shutdown battery issue i made complete tutorial how to fix it.

Is there any issue with rooting these later builds?
And.. your talking to a guy that wipes his internal storage with each ROM change..
so factory resetting is not an issue with me..
When these things updated back in Sept/Oct my N4 went from a Perfectly Working device to one that, I could pull it out and it would be shut off.. then.. it got to a point it would not come back on without letting it set for a WHILE.. or needed to be cooled in the freezer.. so I put it down and got a Zmax Pro.. GREAT phone but it cannot be rooted ( Screw You ZTE ) I want root.. so I'm willing to go back to whatever version of Android makes this device the most stable or this latest version.. as long as it can be rooted
Im still a rookie

After flash your device will reboot 2 times so dont freak out just let it boot completely.
Your bootloader is unlocked if it is locked you cannot able to flash twrp

Can you please, please, please not upload anything to MEGA?
It makes it very hard for Linux/Firefox users, who just want to download the file directly, and use a download manager like DownThemAll to handle large downloads. I can't download anything from that Website.

First before do anything make a back up in twrp of your current rom go to twrp and back up and backup ( boot/system/data/efs/modem). Then you can try things i mentioned below cuz if anything goes wrong you can easily restore your current backup rom without losing anything.
1,Uninstall bloatware system apps you dont use to make your device run more smoothly.
2, install adaway adblocker to disable adds in apps and browser.
4,install busybox to make root more stronger.
3,you can install xposed modules.
4,you can install lucky patcher to hack many games.
5,
And much more the lists are endless but be careful what you are doing and make sure to backup otherwise things can go wrong anytime try on your own risk.
Any issues running this on the N910T(NON 3 Version)
Simple .... Any issues running this rom on the N910T non N910T3 model? I had used a T3 rom in the past on my device which caused tons of issues.

No guarantees it will flash properly. It depends on the size of the hidden partition. I would wait for a debranded firmware like BTU or XEU.

Bro did u flash complete firmware or skipped CSC??
Can the firmware be flashed over 925I model?? Since the hardware is same I guess it shouldn't be a problem??
Thanks for your input @ joecool666 and @lynxblaine.
This morning I just received the 7 OTA on my device and is installing as we speak. It's aprox 200MB smaller than on the S7e (i'm on S6e).
For anyone interested.. I flashed this last night.. but it FAILED on hidden partition... had to emergency repair it. I'm using g925f in the UK on Vodafone..
Edit...
I flashed the UK Vodafone from sammobile
can i flash it with odin or i must install twrp recovery first?
has anyone tried secure folder app ?
I've installed it from Sammobile but it does not run saying "unauthorised"
I made a video of all the new features and the whole new design with nougat
if anybody is interested here you go
i know its the flat version but the firmwares are quite similar

Flash it with Odin. Why would you install TWRP for the purpose of updating to Nougat Official?
Does not make sense. Hence, good luck and happy flashing official OS 7.

No one can confirm for the moment.
But there are already reports saying that they flash TWRP and Magisk for root then installed Magisk Manager from Play Store.
Hello guys! I've followed the simple root tutorial found on XDA and i've managed to root my S5 with no problem (i don't have any knowledge about this stuff cause i am a newbie,sorry...). After that ,i've successfully flashed TWRP Recovery and tried several ROM's but every one of them failed (bootloop on RR, corrupted zip on Note 7 ROM etc),anyway,it was late and the next day i needed my phone so i installed the Official Stock S5 ROM (6.0.1) found on XDA also (flashed with Odin). The problem is, i can't root it anymore. When i try to do the exact same thing i did with auto-root and Odin everything works except SuperSU ("There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it"). I've tried everything! And when i say everything , i mean it. Even KingRoot, wipping everything, trying to root again, the advices found on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/su-binary-installed-supersu-install-t1928764 and nothing works..if anyone can point me some directions , give some advices, i would be very happy! Thank you guys! I'm willing to try anything.

I'm trying to give this a shot because I unlocked and flashed a new phone that was 6.0 stock directly to a 7.1.2 backup and I jacked up my modem and my SIM card is not being detected...

I read the thread. Too Sketchy... I upgraded to stock nougat on xt1575 on verizon. Bad idea. I was using LOS14.1 on 6.0 modems it was awesome and hashbang has made a LOS14.1 for 7.0 modems unofficial. The rom is good but volte is suspect and mms works from time to time. My real big issue with stock nougat was the notification sounds. They were too low even when the volume was at max.
Damn..
Is there no going back with the modem if you upgrade to N? Because I did this with my phone as well (flashed the latest blur)
Can't fastboot back or flash the modem from that?
I currently have the U1 unlocked firmware flashed and am trying to flash it back to the original U firmware because of the new bootloader issue. I am receiving an Odin fail error all the time with different USB ports and computers. Is there something I did wrong? Also, I purchased this as a G950U device. I recently got it unlocked through ATT so does that mean it is now a G950U1 device?
The G950U is the unlocked version, so why did you have to unlock it through AT&T?
It should've worked straight off the bat.
This is the U version (For USA, unlocked version) https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s8-8161.php#g950u
And the AT&T version is the G950A.

I'm honestly not sure. The firmware was the original stock ATT version and I was running the latest Nougat update. I switched the CSC code back to ATT from AIO this morning using the main guide here, but I am now stuck on that Factory Binary screen. Is there a firmware for v2 bootloader for ATT out there?

Hey joe thanks for this! I figured I'd give it a shot to flash back to unroot and it worked! I also checked my warranty in the download mode and it's still at 0x0 and I'm still able to use Samsung Pay/Secure Folder so I didn't even trip Knox.
