My Galaxy S7 Edge Dous is originally a United Arab Emirates stock rom, and I would like to flash it to Indian stock. The reason is India's rom has VoLTE (voice over LTE) and mine doesn't. And is it possible to root my rom? my warranty is long over by now. I would like to delete some Samsung bloat cause this 3yr old device is starting to show its age.

Hi. I bought s7 edge in Thailand.
I was trying to find its stock firmware to get my phone a new fresh start. So far, I only found a link to Singapore firmware.
Here is from my phone

I heard you can flash single Sim firmware into dual one, but I was just afraid and prefer original firmware (before I root it soon hahaha)
Any idea where I can find one for my Thailand model.

OLB covering Malaysia/Philippines/Singapore/Thailand/Vietnam. I believe your latest update is of February 2016
Download Phone INFO Samsung from playstore and look for the active CSC. It has got a country shown as well.
I have a FD version as well with XME (Malaysia) CSC. But from what I have researched, for Galaxy S7 Edge specifically, Samsung has been releasing OTA updates (three times; once a month since Feb) for OJV countries (Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Morocco, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia,South Africa, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey), XSG (united arab emirates) and EU countries (NEE=Netherland, DBT=Germany, LUX=Luxembourg so far)
I have decided to flash the DBT firmware as from the look of firmware updates trend, Galaxies with DBT receive the earliest and most frequent updates from Sammy. Everything is working fine. No Knox triggered. Not too sure about the warranty; i guess it doesn't matter that much since samsung only looks at whether your knox has been triggered.
Good luck
thank you
can I flash German firmware only PDA or i have to flash CSC and MODEM too?
I currently own an Australian Optus carrier variant of Galaxy S7 Edge (OPS) and want to install an Australian unlocked variant of Galaxy S7 Edge (XSA) since unlocked variant has recieved 2 updates since its launch but carrier variant has received none..
1. So my question is will this trip my KNOX Warranty and will it disable my Samsung Pay app use?
2. Also, if I install another country's Galaxy S7 Edge firmware that has the same model number, will this trip my KNOX Warranty and disable Samsung Pay Use?
3. Which country (code) receives the fastest new updates for the device SM-G935F?
4. Lastly, can I install a Galaxy S7 Edge firmware with a different model number? I want to try South Korean variant firmware..
You can flash any official Samsung firmware, and it won't trip Knox.
Someone else asked this earlier today: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/to-flash-generic-australian-rom-to-t3364559
Also, Samsung Pay isn't in Australia yet, and won't be for some time.
The Aussie carrier devices should get the latest update soon hopefully.

Thank you for your reply. Just one more question! I heard that if a phone is rooted, Samsung Pay app is not usable on that device afterwards so will it be the same for installing the other firmware? I know that Samsung Pay is not yet available in Australia but I would like to use it when it's launched.
Correct. Samsung Pay won't work on a rooted device.
Also, if you root, you will trip Knox. You can't use Samsung Pay on a Knox tripped device.
Even if you go back and flash stock firmware, this will not reverse Knox. This is permanent.
But if you just flash Samsung unbranded firmware over your Optus firmware, this is ok. Samsung Pay will still work.
Just to clear up something else, does your handset need to be unlocked before you can flash another official samsung firmware?

hello , i am using s7 edge G935FXXU1DQFG (united kingdom vodafone) , i didnt received oreo update yet, my question is can i download firmware of any other country instead of this united kingdom vodafone ?
Hi . Can someone help ? What happends to my S7 edge verizon phone if i change the firmware for the g935F (i think is the international and exynox processor) and download the Telcel (mexico) rom in sammobile.com ? , Im living now in Mexico with this verizon phone , its already unlocked and working fine with Telcel carrier here but i want their firmware too. thanks
You can't since it's a different chip. What you can do is flash the 935U firmware though. It won't be carrier firmware though, it's pretty much just a stock Samsung firmware for the Snapdragon variant.
Can anyone provide me with a link to download the firmware for samsung s6 edge+ SM-G928P that is compatible to work in lebanon or in the middle east region. The current firemware misses some features like hotshot and is made to work in the USA.

The fastest place y can get it is from updato.com but it sometimes down and if that is the case get it from sammobile.com
Btw you can flash any firmware from any country you want on some there is less bloat
Thank you for the response. My current firmware is customized for sprint provider in usa. I was not not able to find a firmware for model SM-G928P that is not USA provider customized. Is it possible that i install firmware for model SM-G928C which is also samsung s6 edge+?
is there any download place to get FAST stock firmwares ? i need latest MM with european (NEE) version, but every links are dead or slow for free...
I recently bought a s7 edge G935F online and it has csc of TTT(which is trinidad and tobago based) and I'm worring about if it get me OTA for future update of Android 7.0 Nougat and 7.1 and possibly 7.1.1 or sth.
So I'm considering about changing csc for faster ota.
Can somebody give me a instruction or link that doesn't require root and never trigger KNOX warranty?
(Actually if my csc TTT's ota is not that much slower than other csc, I would like to keep my csc simply. Does any one have guess or fact about Trinidad and tobago's OTA release speed? Or for other South American countries?)
As well, I am wondering about if Samsung Pay works on g935f somehow. Is there any way to make g935f usable of Samsung pay? Does changing CSC or flashing a firmware which is for a country that supports Samsung Pay make it possible to enable it on 935f?
Since I'm not going to try to change csc if TTT csc is fine for normal release speed of Nougat OTA, the point of this long post is "can I keep my csc to get ota similar to other countries in Europe or a couple of days later than them?"
