Can anyone point me in the right direction of flashing this onto my smg935u? Is it as simple as downloading the new firmware and flashing through odin? I ask because I tried flashing the previous tmobile firmware onto my phone was unsuccessful. Not sure if I did something wrong. I'm relatively new to this, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm downloading the Tmo firmware now and wondering the same thing. I'm pretty confused about CSC/regional stuff, i think it could possibly depend on what regional firmware and settings you are currently on., maybe. This is what Phone Info has to say about my current firmware, I'm on the generic firmware that came with the phone and using a T-Mobile SIM. Maybe someone will be able to enlighten us

If you are using the g935u version, you'll have to wait until Samsung releases the update specifically for the device. Usually it comes a couple weeks after the carrier update is pushed to their devices. It sucks.
I was able to flash the tmobile nougat update, so I'm happy about that..I was initially going to waiting after my last failed attempt, but I figured I'd give it another try. I don't have any faith in Samsung releasing any updates in a timely fashion for the unlocked version at this point, and it's pretty nice having access to some of the tmobile features like Samsung cloud and FM radio..
What about the language support for this new version?

It's a little ridiculous that the factory unlocked version is getting updates after carrier branded variants. The S7 Edge is my first non-nexus Android phone, and it looks like it may be the last if this is how updates are handled. Hopefully v2 of the Pixel delivers...

Exactly. It's really a shame. That's why I've purchased the Huawei Mate 9, can't justify spending the money on the Pixel with the spec it currently has.

I've noticed a lot of lag after I installed nougat. I did a backup on smart switch and factory reset my phone. Problem solved this is just a heads up guys

Hi, I live in the UK I currently own a Samsung Galaxy S4 19505, I was hoping to receive the lollipop update but sadly I haven't got it both of my brothers which own the same device have gotten the update, Could I have not got it because I screwed something up when Un rooting?
Possibly. Especially if you and your brothers all use the same carrier. However, save yourself the hassle of waiting for an OTA update. There should be links in this forum to download the latest Lollipop ROM for the UK. You can flash it yourself and then be good. Better yet, you'll be back to official status again, at least until you root.

Sadly I can't upload images or links. But downloading that App and comparing it with my brothers phone, I have an EE version of the device he has the Normal black Samsung edition. He has the Firmware updates I don't I'm guessing I'd need to wait till EE decide to push out the updates?

Unless you want your phone IMEI cloned, edit your post.
Until EE pushes an update, you should wait. Especially if the S4 is still SIM locked.

Alright thank you, No the S4 Isn't Sim locked
@nachashh: Ok, the fact your phone is unlocked changes things. I worked under the assumption that your phone was still SIM locked when I told you to hold off. If your phone is unlocked you have no restrictions on what ROM you can install. So you actually can install one of the unbranded Android 5.0.1 ROMs we have here and should have no ill effects from doing so. Personally, since you are in the UK, the BTU ROM is your best choice.

Even with a SIM lock you can still install any rom.
You can, but I've seen others recommend against it because of carrier modifications, especially on sammobile. Better to play it safe.

Is this true? AT&T's OTA for the S7 (Flat) is the same version that I got from the unreleased 7.0 thread?
I bricked my phone trying to go back to PK1, AT&T is sending a warranty replacement but my Wife's phone has this update too. Had I known I wouldn't have even touched it!
So in other words I should be able to receive any future OTA updates right? I should just leave my wife's phone alone?
I appreciate any help.
Thanks!

Hi,
If you sideloaded QA4 (or any build) you must Odin back to APk1 and then you can take the att over the air update. Otherwise, it will always say that you are up to date when you check on your phone.

If you have never updated other than using the att software update function on your phone then the Nougat 7.0 update should be available right now.

Hi All,
I'm a little confused as to where us U firmware users stand with Nougat. I've seen differing reports of what the known plan is with this. I believe some are saying we're waiting for Verizon to release it to the 935u, otherwise I'm reading that we're on a quarterly update schedule and won't be seeing anything until April.
I bought my 935V from VZW and flashed over to unrooted U firmware - actually by using the normal flash method and then doing a firmware restore from verizon's utility to get full unroot. Not exactly a typical method, but it gave me peace of mind knowing everything is completely stock U.
Everything is running great so I'm not in urgent need of an update for any reason, but would like to see some new features.
Lemme know if anyone has any clues here as for what to expect. Thanks in advance!
Not exactly sure what you mean by going full "unroot".. unless you ment, you wanted the U firmware for a smoother "root" can you please clarify bubby?

But anyway, lol. You are correct of the U FW being released somewhere around April. Verizon isn't responsible for U firmware, Samsung is.. I'm actually surprised Verizon released before U

Good to know. Thanks.
I had to root in order to flash U FW, but the root process we have for GS7 is really process heavy and battery draining. I wanted an unrooted version of the U firmware with no bullsh*t and good battery life so I unrooted and restored using the software tool.

Ah Gotcha, sorry I misunderstood the op. Maybe give the T or V carrier FW a spin till U gets released? I haven't upgraded yet but am tempted. Been using stang 5.0 rom and been pretty impressed. I'd say I would recommend it even with the faults of the eng boot.
I also believe I seen a "no root no bull**** playstore Nougat rom" by jkruse, or something to that effect. If that's something your into
Lots of cry babies over in the Samsung forums. I can see why everyone is so upset but Samsung never promised faster updates for unlocked variants over carrier models. I'm content waiting at least until April for the nougat release of the 935u. Screw Verizon bloat. It's not worth putting up with it for Nougat.
There are some articles with Samsung's new commitment for monthly security updates on unlocked devices. This should mean that the 935U will get Nougat this month with March security update.

Well, sorta agree with you. I'm patiently waiting for the U update to 7.0, but in the mean time I'm running the Verizon update on a backup device. I can't really enjoy 6.0.1's UI after having Grace UX.
G935U Nougat (G935UUEU4BQD2) is now available!

Smart Switch PC can also do an in-place update to 7.0. It's the April security patch.

I would flash the full Odin package for U 6.0 and then use Smart Switch PC to update to 7.0.

Yes i have the original UDP and the tethering option works. How ever i cant get the verizon video calling to work??
So from what I'm getting, to install (if I'm on Verizon Nougat), flash Unlocked 6.0 first, then smart switch to 7.0? Also, I read that someone had been having issues with using LTE while in a phone call, can anyone confirm? And what happened to all the other fix files, since I remember the first time flashing the unlocked software required more subsequent flashes as well.
I recently got this phone as a gift from my wife, extremely nice phone especially since I come from an s5. So far rooting this phone Is not really a good idea and currently has no custom rom support. That's okay tho, I'll just keep waiting but for now I want to update to the latest 7.0 Nougat Firmware since it's still in 6.0.1 MM. Sadly the phone says it's up to date and theres no need for update. Obviously this is a like cause I looked it up and there is an update from August to go over to Nougat. [emoji848] I'm here to ask for help cause I can't seem to see why I can't update. Any suggestions would really be appreciated [emoji41]

You can download the update from AT&TS WEBSITE. Once
You have on your phone try to update.
You can Flash Nougat onto your S7 AT&T phone. But if you do not know how take it to a Best Buy that has a Samsung store inside it and they will do it for you for Free. It is really simple to Flash it if you download the file on your PC and boot phone into Download Mode.

So, I live out of the US and I don't have an AT&T SIM. I bought an S10+ which is (I assume) unlocked from AT&T, so my SIM is working. Out of the box it updated to g975usqs1asd9. I've read on an AT&T support page that the device must be on AT&T network to update.
Now I'm slightly worried, will I receive more updates in the future because I will not be in the US that often and on AT&T. How did it receive this one?
Is there a way to continue OTA updates in the future with the stock ROM?
You can flash through odin. Unless things have changed, I've never had an (non-iphone)ATT phone update OTA when on another network.

Ok, so that means I should just monitor when new versions show up and then flash them manually. No big deal, I guess . I've done this before, but I was never in this kind of situation.
