I am currently on the latest 8.0 release, ATT fw, loaded from SD card recovery, and want to flash the unlocked firmware, mainly to remove bloatware and enable hotspot.
Is there an XAA firmware download for 8.0 or do I download the December 7.0 and downgrade to that, then use an update.zip to get back to 8.0?
Thanks

I want to flash stock but I have no firmware files for it, and I can't downgrade with Odin.
Using the Edge variant if that's needed to be known.
Anyone have the firmware files?

Im using the Canadian version of the 6p and want to downgrade back to 7.0 and or 6.0.1. There are 4 or 5 different ones listed. Im currently on NPF10C.
There is no Canadian version. Use 6.0.1 MTC20L or 7.0 NBD90X. Those are the latest available.

Can i just flash that over 7.1.1 and not loose data?
If you don't flash userdata.img
I would not recommend dirty flashing.
Backup your stuff, and clean flash when switching major versions (ie. 7.1.1 to 6.0.1, etc.)
To flash the newest version of the 935u firmware over the recent 935t release does the phone need to be unlocked first?
no
No. But it better to unlock first since the T-mobile Unlock App won't work on the "U" version.
So I purchased my S8 from At&t and later got it unlocked by paying the whole amount off. My phone is still stuck in August update and the model number is listed as SM-G950U. I have been told to flash the official firmware with Odin to get the latest update. Which one should I flash? I also don't understand the difference between SM-G950U and SM-G950U1. I only see AT&T firmware on SM-G950U1, should I use that one?
Also, for flashing firmware update on Odin. Do I have to flash all the firmware before the latest one or do I just flash the latest one?
Hi everyone,
my wife had an S8 + EXYNOS which had its motherboard dead, it was on android 9.0. A phone repair center replaced the motherboard but they had only SNAPDRAGON and everything works fine.
The thing is, that earlier the model number was SM-G955F and now it is SM-G955U and it says now Verizon but it is on android 7.0 and says that there is no update. I want to download the latest 9.0 firmware but I am now confused.
If I search on sammobile for G955U I get only branded firmwares. I see that the unbranded are 955U1.
Now my question is, because I never flashed US models only Europe, should I just flash the latest Verzion FW or can I flash the latest U1?
This is the latest Verizon, I do not want to soft-brick now the phone....

If I can use the unlocked firmware, could you please tell me which exactly it is so I do not make a mistake?
EDIT: Followed this easy flash tutorial with modded ODIN and flashed directly U1 unbranded XAA FW which works like a charm
