Good News Guys >>>>Official T-Mobile Galaxy J7 Android 7.1.1 Nougat update released
We reported recently that the Galaxy J7 might soon receive the Nougat update. The handset was spotted at the Wi-Fi Alliance running a Nougat build. It was a big indication that the company was planning on rolling out the update soon.
T-Mobile has now started rolling out the Android 7.1.1 Nougat update for the Galaxy J7. It’s one of the few devices that Samsung has updated straight to version 7.1.1 from Marshmallow.
T-Mobile Galaxy J7 Android 7.1.1 Nougat Update
T-Mobile has started rolling out the Nougat update for the Galaxy J7 over-the-air. However, the company’s support document for this handset is all over the place. It assigns version number Android 6.0.1, Android 7.0 and Android 7.1.1 to one single firmware version, J700TUVU3BQI5.
This is obviously not possible. Clearly, there are clerical issues with the document. That doesn’t mean the T-Mobile Galaxy J7 Android 7.1.1 Nougat update isn’t rolling out. Those who own this handset on T-Mobile will soon receive an update notification if they haven’t already.
This firmware is also available for download from our firmware section where the Android version is accurately mentioned as Android 7.1.1 Nougat. Despite the fact that this update has been released in October, it comes with the August security patch.
Galaxy J7 owners on T-Mobile can either wait for the update to go live in their region or simply download the firmware from our website.
Download 7.1.1 here and happy flashing J700TUVU3BQI5 - Galaxy J7 SM-J700T TMB USA (T-Mobile)

Tmobile received the update from samsung on 8/28. They filled it with their garbage and sent it last thursday, most of us flashed aqf1 stock and got it ota friday morning.i dont see any clerical errors or anything like that at all. And ive been digging through the build for a week. Im running it now. All internation j7 roms flash with this builds kernel, but reboot in the setup wiz, so once we get a good base there will be a ton of ports in this community. Also, we have found, edge screen, blf, high performance mode, and aod hidden but inactive in the phone. This build is something amazing folks.
Btw, sammobile is a useless, slow dinosaur. Updato via playstore is the best source for firmware.

Safe to flash through TWRP while rooted with xposed? Or should I disable xposed and uninstall root? Also, should I wipe when flashing or does it matter

U cannot in any capacity flash a stock firmware with twrp.u have to wipe your whole phone and go to download mode and flash the firmware via odin. Dont forget to unzip the file first so u have the unzipped form of it loaded in the ap slot
Aight I'm chill (no way at all to update without wiping my phone?) Like what if I don't wipe and flash in odin; will that lead to problems?

U could if u werent rooted or had twrp installed..if u dont wipe before odin, it will prob fail until u wipe it honestly.
Why my phone didn't get any farther updates? Or this is the latest one?
WAS-LX1AC185B181 is the current firmware.
Same here. It is not the latest update. Latest update is B321 (oreo).. But they had B185, and B183 updates before the oreo update. But we didnt get them that is because of these firmwares were not released in Pakistan.. Other middle eastern countries are having the latest updates.
me too i didn't get those updates....this is weird ?...Maybe we will get updated straight to oreo?
Just get Firmware finder and update via it.
Guys please, the Oreo isn't officially released, it's still beta... And These aren't the latest, there are updates like B198, B197, B203, B206, B209, B210... And yes, you can use firmware finder for huawei from google play to update, just make sure you go to the right firmware for your phone version, see if you are approved for installation (either the installation will stop on 5 or 6%) and check the instruction in the app.
Well it isn't approved.....this is weird....Just gotta wait then?

How you installed it?
There are instructions in the app.
BTW if you want, you can use HwOTA to update to version you aren't approven for.
If you guys needed to check EMUI 8.0 just follow these steps.

Maybe because the Sprint Oreo will be using BLv6 so its 2 numbers behind everyone else? lol ... anyone have any thoughts about what the BL-version could possibly be for the Sprint Oreo? ... could they or would they use a BLv4 like everyone else?
that was the Sprint answer

If anything, they would change it to v7. Maybe they are waiting for a merger, which could happen next week
I checked for update today and got 1627.64mb g930pvpu6cre7 Samsung experience 9.0 with oreo.
I haven't gotten an update from Sprint on my S7 since December 2016. I am still on some random Nougat beta version.
I thought a brand new firmware update to Oreo would reset whatever bug was in there causing this, but it looks like one person in my house got the Oreo update and mine is still saying I am up to date when I check manually.
Is there no longer an ODIN for macOS? I thought there was one, but I used it on another Mac maybe 4 years ago when I was on my S3 and rooting it. Doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Just received oreo on my s7 for boost. So far I'm not impressed. I was really hoping for Dolby on this but guess not. The build number is SMG930PVPU6CRE7

On Mac you can use Heimdall to flash the latest Nougat firmware then update through OTA to Oreo. Because there isn't any firmware file yet on Updato or Sammobile.
i manfully updated @ 4:15. they sent it @ 1627.64 mb. still downloading. when I got my att update I tried all the batch root methods for my 935a. saving magisk for last bc I didn't have the boot.img for the cre4 update.
I I only had the "att beta" update from March. long story short it won't boot with the nougat eng.boot. I gave it an hour. I cleared the cache, factory reset, tried to add flash all of the earlier img files I had for oreo, nothing worked. had to flash it back to nougat bra1. I immediately requested the update again. they approved. the next day I attempted to flash magisk 16.4. w/ the modified odin 3.1.3 version. it wouldn't flash. with the cre4 boot.tar in hand, I tried every method on gods green earth to gain some sort of r/w access. it was late, I was tired, I flashed the eng boot. once again it was stuck at the Samsung boot logo. it wouldn't allow me into recovery to push the cre4 update zip. once again I'm back to bra1 nougat. I booted into recovery & updated it from the sd card. when it booted I noticed it wasn't anywhere as clean & polished as the ota I had twice. I've flashed back to brd1 ten times, & requested the ota. after smart switch, I used all the avail windows software I could acquire & kept trying, they won't send it. but they did provide me with a new picture for my samsung account. I'll post it later. gotta check out this 930p oreo.

I don't think Heimdall works on High Sierra or even Sierra anymore.
I'm wanting to move to a SM-930U version of stock android on my 930P. But in struggling to do so for the past couple of weeks I finally figured out that sprint as updated the bootloader to version 5 and most of the firmware images for 930U are version 4 (android 7 nugut). (PU4 vs PU5) which results in a Odin fuse error.
The phone is currently nagging me to go from PU5BQL1 to BU6BRD2. If I understand the nameing convention that would move me to version 6 of the bootloader.
What are the odds I can move to oreo for 930U and avoid the bootloader fuse issue? I think I also understand that as of this posting date a 930U oreo firmware has not been released?

almost zero... asuming that Oreo for "U" Variants step up with BL on this month maybe next one, is something pausible but stepping up two versions in any short time is questionable... but who knows. The best you can do is wait this or the next month for BL update on U variants.
To be clear I'm still on version 5. I will continue to put off the upgrade to 6.
Literally no matter what I do. I cannot flash ANYTHING in Odin to either revert back to 7.0 or stock 8.0. Its not flashing any version of 7 or 8 and its not flashing any U firmware or AT&T firmware.
What am I doing wrong. I flashed 8.0 with the intent to be able to revert back to stock 7.0 once official Oreo rolled out and I literally cant do anything in Odin. I've tried odin 3.13 and 3.12 prince version. HALP
update: flashed G930UUEU4BRD1 using odin 3.12 successfully. phew
As far as I know, the newest Oreo version of AT&T is CRE4, not BRD6 as you say

You may be speaking about where I said CRD6, that is a version of Oreo that doesn't have much difference than the latest version of Oreo CRE4. Most of them after release have been minor changes. I was not flashing back to BRA1 to constantly flash the newest update of Oreo. I have an unlocked s7 so I can flash any carrier but eventually when the official oreo firmware comes out for either tmobile or the unlocked 930 varient i will be switching back to OTA updates

The issue was probably that I needed to put home file in csc and exclude the csc file and then factory reset and clear caches. I probably ended up factory reset before Odin and didn't activate USB debug or the files I was using were corrupt. Since then I've just flashed TMobile Oreo that came out a few days ago and I'm gonna just use official ota for future updates

I am a newbie here.. Recently my ATT Galaxy S7 received Oreo upgrade and I am not at all liking it.
Can someone please guide me if it's possible to go back to Nougat or even marshmallow (preferable). If yes, what would steps for same..
My device is SM-G930A. Originally ATT device and now it's unlocked by ATT.
My device is currently NOT rooted , I am OK with rooting it.. I would appreciate if someone can help me with steps for same as well..
Thanks in advance..
According to GSM Arena, T-Mobile just released official android 8 for s7/s7 edge! Finally. Now which firmware should I be on because I have an unlocked phone and I want to flash TMobile firmware since I have TMobile sim card.
https://www.gsmarena.com/tmobile_starts_rolling_out_samsung_galaxy_s7_oreo_update-news-31959.php
I'm pretty sure I can just use SamFirm to flash the official firmware since SamFirm has all the official firmware for samsung phones. I will check to see if SamFirm has updated to Android 8 on the Tmobile s7/s7 edge.
Update: Yup, SamFirm has the official version for Download if you aren't getting the OTA update. (see attachment below)
Can confirm. Just completed the OTA update.

How is it running for you?
Smooth install. no freezes or crashes as of today. I did do a shutdown right after install. Rebooted just fine. I plan on doing cache wipe after a day or two.
overall responsiveness seems no worse than 7.
Running smooth after factory reset, but the secure folder icon doesn't change with icon packs. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed any bugs like this.
I upgraded to this build and I don't like it. Can I odin back to 7.0 and be ok?

Oreo isn't rooted period because of the locked bootloader on the us variants. If you have an atnt phone and an atnt sim, why not just flash the official atnt Oreo. Or the official atnt nougat bra1 and then just use the ota updates to get to official atnt oreo

I have an unlocked s7. We can use any carriers firmware. If you want the atnt firmware, you can go to the atnt s7 forums and they have the nougat and the Oreo firmware. They have the stock atnt Oreo firmware that you should be able to flash directly. If that doesn't work, you can flash atnt nougat bra1 and then just continuously ota until the Oreo update comes up, I think atnt is currently on Oreo CRE4 if they haven't had an update. Also, if your phone is unlocked and you've had the 930U firmware before, I'm actually gonna switch over to the unlocked Oreo once it is officially released since the U firmware doesn't have all the carrier bloat. Right now the U firmware is only on BRD1 nougat I believe.
If you want tmobiles Oreo, just flash the files I provided. If it doesn't work then revert back to atnt nougat bra1 or unlocked bra1 and then you can flash this TMobile Oreo

Oreo is worth it and it's stable. It's been out for a while, it's just now hitting older devices. Currently Android P is the newest Android. Which is Android 9
