QJ3 Download - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

Well, I went to wipe and reset my phone after I had updated the QJ3 update. Samfirm only has QH1. So now im stuck with a recovery bootloop since I can't install the QH1. I can't seem to find QJ3 anywhere on here or google. Samfirm isn't updated yet (which is absolutely stupid that they wouldn't have it up to date for this very problem). Does anyone know if it's been posted anywhere else? OR maybe a fix? Thanks!

combinefile.com or gsm-firmware.com both have the files listed. Daily pass is $3. Never used them, so I have no idea if it will work.
Here is what it found--Click here
Appears to have a few downloads too.
If you try it out, you should download and share the G935p and G930p files.

Hey, have you been able to root with the new firmware?
I have found what I am thinking is the current root process for the s7edge on nougat, but not clear on that information?

[update] G930TUVU3APG1 firmware available

It seems a new update is about to roll out. The build is BG1.
Maybe just a security patch containing update, but the thing is, the odin TAR is available already.

Have fun!
Was available for the s7, but not the edge for me.
When I click download I just get a blank folder with them name of the firmware. How can I get the actual firmware or am I doing something wrong?

I believe that sammobile uses .zip compression. I compressed the 5 files using .rar

I rooted using a custom script someone made in the att thread. It fixed the cpu frequencie issues and adjusted each governor of the small and big clusters. So far so good with only minot hiccups once in a while. I haven't noticed much of a difference with the pg1 firmware if any. If you need help rooting check out the att forum or i can help when i get back home.
if we are already rooted on PD8, can we just flash this ontop of PD8 and retain root? What about user data?
I got this update on 2 S7's and on both of them, I now have cellular data issues. Wifi calling will keep giving me a notice that my phone is going to use wifi for calls when the feature is set to prefer Cellular for calls. Rebooting doesn't help, it will eventually say it again. I have to keep turning off wifi to force the message away. And during browsing on cellular, it drops a lot even though I know I have great coverage where I use it. With 2 phones, and only have this update, I think something is wrong with this firmware.

I haven't had any issues, everything works fine. Here go down till you find generic galaxy s7 after root process and flash the zip he made via Flashfire. See if that helps. Did you factory reset after rooting btw?
I am not rooted. I just saw this Firmware thread and figured this was a good place to talk about my issue related to this firmware. I will update my previous post to show no rooting. All stock.

Oh, sorry, then I'm not sure what could be the issue, you could try clearing cache in recovery.

A factory reset should fix it, this happened to me as well.

Anyone know where I can get the latest G930P firmware G930PVPS4APJ2 ?

As of 10/26, Sprint rolled out the latest firmware for G930P (Galaxy S7), G930PVPS4APJ2. I have been searching everywhere since then and it has been 3 days without any luck. Since by mistake I loaded the G930U's API3 with the latest bootloader 4 and I am not able to downgrade to any of the older G930P firmwares. The worst part is that it also destroyed my factory SIM unlock. I want to go back to the G930P firmware and request to have it unlocked again. Someone please help. If this firmware is not yet available for downloading yet, any idea normally how long it takes from the day a firmware is rolled out until it is available on the web for downloading?
Thanks in advance for any help or info.
I'm glad someone posted this. I tried downgrading so I could root my S7 but it failed and now I'm assuming the only way to fix it is to flash stock firmware.
Has anyone had any luck getting the firmware for PJ2?

I can't even update to PH7. It downloads fine, but during the install part (blue screen/android dude) it constantly fails at 32%... I hate to have to flash with Odin, and re-setup my phone (apps, homescreen layout, etc.).
Does anyone know of a link to PH7 that has decent download speeds, like a torrent? Sammobile speeds are so slow.

Search for SamFirm. It's an executable you launch on Windows and search for the firmware for your model and region you need and download it. It's the quickest I have seen so far.
This... I also need. Stuck until I get it. Bahhhhhh I don't like the s7 after 4 days. Didn't realize these updates pushed new bootloader version. Trying to build a ROM here... Dafuq?!?!?! -.-"

All... Try this link. Should solve your PH7 problems if you haven't found it already. No PJ2 yet, Although it shows up as a repo...

Do i have to flash these files in a certain order? or all at once? And, do I use the HOME_CSC or the CSC file?
Edit: **** yeah! I flashed the BT, AP, CP, and HOME_CSC all at once in Odin v3.11.1 and it didn't wipe data, just updated my phone to PH7. I am now updating via OTA to PJ2.

You're supposed to flash all at once... Careful going to PJ2 though. bootloader version changes... And they haven't released flashable firmware for PJ2. I found a workaround flashing some U firmware (PI3) with new bootloader 4. Here's the link i went to. And i might add this is a worst case scenario. There's no going back due to the 7's locked bootloader. Of course this is only if you brick your current PJ2 somehow. Which i managed. Developers at work! Anyhow, wish you luck on PJ2, and i'll start development on it (depending on the nougat drop date) once i get a firmware release. Cheers!

*Long post incoming...
The OTA update to PJ2 went fine, no problems. Currently running smooth. My initial issue was I was previously rooted, and decided to go back to stock. When I went back to stock I flashed the PG1 firmware but it wasn't from Sammobile. I downloaded all the firmware files separately from an XDA post that the root post linked too (big mistake). I then didn't flash them all at the same time, and I don't think I flashed the HOME_CSC file, just the CSC one. It went fine and everything but when PH7 dropped everytime I tried to OTA update to PH7 it would fail at 32% every time during the bluescreen/android guy screen. I'm not sure what's being checked at 32% to why it failed there, but my guess was that the files I flashed did something that was invalid and the updating process wouldn't continue becuase of a validation issue, probably from flashing just CSC file and not HOME_CSC file, just a guess.
After I flashed PH7, I was so happy my data wasn't wiped, and was also happy when PJ2 updated just fine. Though I was bummed, I thought PJ2 was the Nougat update...
You're a life-saver dude! And, thanks for the website you gave me to download the firmware, took like 15min to download a 2.5GB file, compared to 5 hours when downloading from Sammobile and other sites. Thanks a bunch!
I had an S2 and S5 for 2 years each before the S7 and damn were those easy to root and flash ROMs/Mods on. Damn locked bootloader! The one thing I think Samsung fcked up on with this phone. I should have waited for the Google Pixel... I'm with Sprint (obv) and re-newing my contract I get a discount off the phone, and having an unlimited data family plan, plus a discount on my bill for where I work made me stay and renew my contract with Sprint.
What exactly are you working on? A way to unlock the bootloader, an easy way to root (the current way is tedious and laggy), or a ROM? I'm interested.

Glad you got squared away... I'm not really working on much. Just going to Mod a Stock ROM again, to start. I'm probably not the guy who will figure out custom recovery on the phone. lol But I'm going to dive into some documentation on the topic, and get acquainted. That's a far reach, though. I just don't see a lot of support or development for this phone series. So I want to put some stuff out there. Maybe even slim down and automate the rooting process. (Think SkipSoft Android Toolkit)
I don't know. Any ideas or requests are always welcomed.

If you're on the latest (PJ2) stay right where your are. There's no going backwards from there with the release on bootloader 4. You need to wait out the PJ2 firmware release.

Is this phone still rootable?

I have a g930a with the basband version G930AUCS4APK1 and I have done all OTA updates.

go to the root thread, follow the instructions and give it a shot. That's really the best way to find out...just make sure you have the APK1 firmware on standby in case it doesn't turn out well.

Pretty much this. Backup files you don't want to lose, download the stock Odin files, and give rooting a shot. Worst case, you just gotta flash stock back via Odin. You may be able to flash an earlier firmware via Odin and root from there. Though I doubt Odin would let you. If I were you, I'd download all the applicable files, backup my data, wait until I've got a good chink of time ithat I don't need my phone and start playing around with it. I had all sorts of complications rooting mine s{ I was phone-less for like an hour

I'm still trying to learn the nomenclature....so, i'm assuming by the PK1 one part of the version that it is new than PI3?
Just wasn't sure about UUE part. Sorry, noob in this dept.
But, wanted to at least share that I had successful root with OP baseband.
Now to figure out how to make the battery last more than 10hrs and respond a little quicker.
The V15 fix hasn't seem to do much in comparison to stock OTA.
Hope this helps.

(for the others that may not know too)
The last three characters of the release are the ones that matter.
* The P indicates the year (P=16th letter of the alphabet, 2016)
* The K indicates the month (K=11th letter of the alphabet, November)
* The 1 represents the release number (to allow for more than one release each month)
Keep in mind that once you flash a newer firmware on the S7, you cannot go back to an older one. Odin will not let you flash it. Even if you could, it would most likely trip the KNOX flag.

Samsung s7 edge sm G935T firmware update?

Hi,
I have recently bought Samsung s7 edge T mobile unlocked , but it not showing update. The last updated was android 6.0.1 on November 1st, 2016. I have also tried to connected with smart switch pc app but it's not showing any update either. I want to update my device with official firmware so that it will update automatically and regularly. I'm in Pakistan.
I have seen on Sam mobile to update via Odin. I want to know is this official update? I have not rooted and don't want to get rooted , I want to keep it official.
Thank you
WEIRD is knox tripped ?
Could be that the unlock was not done officially by the carrier, and it tripped KNOX or the OTA security bit.

Phone is alive again! Rooted, mildly debloated BQJ2 firmware (by mildly I mean, some sammy apps, LookOut, and T-mobile app removed)
Of note, Substratum made my phone lag for some reason, even with the governors set correctly and whatnot. Will try clearing cache on the app and then clear cache in recovery and see if it works better. The whole reason I had to reflash is that for some reason when I accidentally changed the GPU governor in Kernel Adiutor, it broke Play store.
Can anyone help with this. After updating to QBJ2, it won't detect network anymore, keeps searching!
Anyone got a fix please?
I have virus
