So I switched to T-Mobile from ATT. I kept my unlocked S7 but didnt realize I would lose WI-Fi Calling which is a must because I get pretty bad service.
Does anyone have the files and steps to flash T software via Odin?
I have:
G930A 7.0
Baseband: G930AUCU4BQF3

I'm sure I not the only one switching carriers, I have unlocked S7 AT&T SMG930A , android version 6.0.1 on T-mobile network, everything work fine, what are my option to get version 7..
Thanks
Flash with Odin, or attempt to flash tmo fw in Odin.
I swear I am not stupid, I realize this sounds insane, but originally my S7 Edge had the model number: SM-G935V.
I soft-bricked the phone trying to get the safestrap feature and when I went into the download after bricking it, it had the model number: SM-G935A. I tried multiple times to flash a stock verizon rom, but it wouldn't work. When I saw the model number I decided to try the AT&T firmware on a whim... and it worked
I don't understand how this happened, I feel like the MD5 file I used had a problem with it, or it was not made for verizon (but instead AT&T) but i desperately need to fix this. What do I do?
AT&T has a newer bootloader than Verizon, so... you can't go back. Not until Verizon releases a firmware with the same bootloader version.
Install BRA1 Verizon s7 edge image with Odin, Prince comsy version.

I think I might want to install the G935U (AT&T) firmware on my Verizon Galaxy S7 Edge G935V currently with Android 8.0
I have downloaded ODIN, Samsung S7 Edge drivers, and G935U (July 24,2018) AT&T version.
Is there any reason I can't do this to my G935V? I am confused on the Boot Loader issues and how they apply
with firmware changes for example when changing a G935V to a AT&T G935U.
I also would like to know if all features continue you work and are there any features you loose.
I have the G935V switched from CDMA to GSM and added a APN config for my Straight Talk AT&T sim.
It works but I don't have LTE band 17 which is used in my area. I barely get coverage on Band 2 in my area.
Thanks,
Ken
The Oreo firmware is out here:
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935U/
I read that I can install the firmeware of sm-935U in my sm-935V, but when i enter in sammobile page ,there is a huge list of 935U firmeware, wich of those do i have to select to work fine in my phone
Today the wife and I jumped ship from Verizon and brought our own S7 Edges(935V) devices to Tmobile. My phone is running the 935U Android 8.0 firmware already from Verizon and works great on TMobile service. Her phone on the other hand is G935V on official Verizon firmware still. Her phone works great on TMobile just as mine but her phone is still on Android 7.0 Verizon official. As far as taking updates now or reflashing with Odin,would it be safe to flash her phone with U firm from TMobile? Are all the U firms the same? Would flashing the TMo firmware help any at all with the tmobile radios and such? Any help greatly appreciated! Enjoying the TMobile service so far! Way better service here in Lansing,Michigan with Tmo than the Verizon.
I've used both the G935U and the G935T firmware on my S7 edge from Verizon no problem on the TMo network. People have said the U Firmware radio doesn't have quite the signal detection range as the others, but you might just be sacrificing a bar of service for more consistent connectivity.
Eventually I ended up using the G935T firmware instead because the TMobile bloatware helped my wife manage her account and such. If her phone was still on Verizon Official and needed flashed for a non developer, I would go with the Tmobile firmware just for less confusion.
The Verizon S7's really were never carrier locked in the first place, and the S7 has universal modem firmware.
Hello, all. I have an unlocked S8 (G950U1) in my possession. I originally had AT&T as my carrier and I switched to Verizon Prepaid a week or two ago. When I switched, I noticed my phone picked up HD Voice and VoLTE. I was hoping to get Wi-Fi Calling but I do not see that option active anywhere in the dialer or my network settings. I think I need to be on Verizon's firmware. I am fairly tech-saavy, but I have never flashed the firmware on any Android phone before. I am currently on Android Pie (PPR1.180610.011.G950U1UEU5DSC1). My firmware specs are as follows:
Product Code: SM-G950UZBAVZW
PDA: G950U1UEU5DSC1
CSC: G950U1OYM5DSC1
BASEBAND: G950U1UEU5DSC1
BOOTLOADER: G950U1UEU5DSC1
To go about getting Verizon firmware properly on my phone, do I need to download the PDA,CSC, BASEBAND and BOOTLOADER for the G950U Verizon variant or the G950U1? I also noticed the guides for flashing standard firmware. Do I need to go through the entire process (sorting out which bootloader to download, carrier switch procedure) or can I just use the Flashing Standard Firmware Procedure? Any help and guidance would be much appreciated!
AT&T and T-Mobile usually have the same hardware, having both a GSM network (Verizon and Sprint are not GSM).
So can I replace easily the firmware of an unlocked AT&T phone with a T-Mobile one, since I'm using T-Mobile (and would love to have WIFI calling)?
So far I've been trying without success on an S5, not to risk a more recent phone until I understand completely:
The phone is running G900AUCS4DQD1 (Android 6.0.1 "Marshmallow") - AT&T
I'm trying to flash G900TUVU1GQC2 (Android 6.0.1 "Marshmallow") - TMOBILE
Odin says "about.mbn"+"FAIL! (Auth)" and phone says "SECURE CHECK FAIL : aboot"
It's probably a beginner's question but could someone help me?
Thanks
