Hi guys im planing to s7 edge dual sim version from nexus 6p. My question is can use all the custom roms without sacrificing dual sim option?
And second question is how much average sot can i get using aosp rom with s7 edge?
Both questions do depend on the rom... generally the FD is compatible to F roms and the necessary code for the second sim is included in the F rom as well. As long as a custom rom is based on Samsung rom and not modified regarding that part you should have dual sim.
As for sot you can read some posts here in the forum.

Hi there, I see there is a dual sim version of the s5. Is it possible to route this and put a custom rom on it like a normal s5 or would it be missing the dual sim function? Thank you.
(A general answer on dual sim phones and custom roms would be useful as HTC also have some dual sims)
I am gonna upgrade my device soon and I've decided on the G4 as my next device. Where I live the international variants are available i.e 815 (single sim) and the 818 (dual sim). Now the dual sim variant better fits my needs but being a power user I can help feel that I would miss out on a lot of custom ROM's, Kernels, ans Mods since the single sim model (815) is more widely available throughout the world and thus more development for that variant.
I read somewhere that the only difference between the models is the modem?
If that's true would I be able to flash the ROMs, Kernel and mods for the 815 (Single sim) variant on the 818 (Dual Sim variant)?
Any and all suggestion are welcome
It will be January 2016 by the time you will be able to flash roms on this device so better look elsewhere if flashing roms is important to you.

We are on the same boat. I am about to buy a second hand LG G4, and on my area there is both a single and a dual device with the same price tag being offered. But I've been doing some researches here on XDA and it definitely seems that the single sim device has better developer support.
Hi,
I am considering to purchase the dual sim model of S7 edge.
However, reading from few posts on the forum, I am seeing posts complaining about the dual sim model's battery that drains way faster than the single sim model.
If someone share with me their actual usage time for s7 edge(especially the dual sim variant) it would be great.
+Will dual sim variant have less rom/firmware available due to its dual sim hardware?
Thanks in advance.
Both model is exactly the same except the dual sim
(with 2nd imei). They even have the same firmware. You can flash G935f rom to G935fd or vice versa and have no problem or different.
But of course if you use 2 sim card, radio will drain a bit more battery and have a bit worse battery than single sim. Otherwise the battery usage will be the same if you use 1 sim.

So having "same firmware", do you mean by this, that custom roms made for G935F can be easily flashed to G935FD?

Probably
At least the official stock rom is the same, so why won't custom rom be the same too.

Try updating first ...
and see if that fixes the issue
Like the title says, does Duos version of S7 Edge support sdcard? Do Custom ROMs support S7 Edge Duos? I know there is no AOSP and I really dont care but I would like to know this

im also looking for an s7 edge, there's a seller in ebay with duos cheaper than single sim (maybe because dual sims are from south asia or something like that)
If someone with s7 edge can confirm if having a dual s7 edge affects something(talking about development, projects, firmwares, etc)
Thanks in advance
Duos 7 Edge: (1) 1 sim card and microSD or (2) 2 sim cards no microSD. i'm using Option 1 with a 200GB microSD card. i've seen some custom ROMs that support the Duos version. thread title will let you know if ROM works with 935F & 935FD or just the 935F version. More answers to questions in the development forums.
As far as I have seen, its usually Duos version of Samsungs that get left out in the cold. I think I might get the single sim on contract.

I just picked up a S7 Edge G-935FD gold (dual sim international model) on Amazon for $629; no tax and free Prime Shipping (YMMV on free one-day; I found a seller that offered free one-day so I'm getting mine tomorrow!)
I read into this before purchasing and there really is no difference between the two. The 935F and the 935FD are exactly the same firmware / project wise, minus the fact that the duos version has a sim management feature (since it allows two sims). I believe I read that having the 935F firmware (official) on an FD device, still gives you the ability to use both SIMs. I saw this during work so I can't link it, but I am 99% sure it was mentioned on XDA
So far for the official firmware i can install the G935F without any problem, in fact the Build Number at the Software Info menu is G935F , Baseband is G935F Just the Model Number is 935FD , i get the updates normally with the G935F rollout , it seems that Samsung done it right this time , Don't know about custom roms
you can use 1 SIM + 1 Micro SD or 2 SIMs as you like
so? does s7 edge dual has root?
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.
