Jailbreak/Unlock Samsung Omnia M - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hell!
Please someone develop any method for Samsung omnia M to Jialbreak/Unlock it as i couldn't fine any method yet to do so.
Name:SAMSUNG GT-S7530
Soft version: WP7.5
OS version: 7.10.8773.98
This version is preloaded from company so it can neither be restored to lower versions.

You didn't include the critical information, which is the firmware version, but it doesn't matter; any new Samsung phone will have blocks in place against the unlock methods that we used to use for them. The only current option is an official developer-unlock, and that still won't allow the use of high-privilege apps.
There are people working on a way to flash an older (oficial) firmware to the phone, which would allow you to downgrade to something compatible with the WindowBreak project for a free dev- and interop-unlock.

The criticle info:
OS version: 7.10.8773.98
Firm version: 2424.12.06.4
And if i choose to downgrade, how do i do it?

Reading, it is a fundamental skill.
The implication of my last sentence is that we don't yet have the ability to downgrade, merely that some people are working on it. I'd suggest going and looking at the device-specific forums for more info, although there was at least one thread on the subject on this forum a few months back.
Your firmware version is far, far too new to use WindowBreak. You need a firmware from 4 Nov 2011 or before.

i have tried this on the trophy and it causes reboots and over heats the phone highly unstable
would you check please if you can find something newer or pre nodo rom for verizon trophy thanks in advance?
yep. found out the hard way. couldn't flash the ansar rom after this too. so i sent it back for warranty. let see what happens.
Does this enable us to developer unlock our device and flash back to the stock ROM?
Sent from my mwp6985 / Trophy using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
nope it looks more like the rom that htc or verizon used to demo the unit because it loads adverstisment of the device on standby
but not for every day use sucks big time
zune cannot read the software version
even tried the windows support tool and does not recognize it

Anyone able to help? This is XDA...right?

i think we're gonna have to wait for a mango release. There should be a warning NOT to flash this rom. I shipped mine back to HTC/PCD and am still waiting for the phone to be returned.
I agree. We need a warning.
@ansar - please post additional warnings.
Guess, I'll tap some resources and get the beta.
thanks.
Mango Beta is out. Since this is not unlocked, and dont have a dev account..still stuck.
anyone have a Verizon backup so i can avoid sending back to warranty?

Hi all!
I may have some good news here shortly.
I've been able to get through the first few steps of the Mango beta update process.
Nothing certain yet, but the phone seems to be properly going through the steps with the demo rom.
Please let me know if you are interested in a step-by-step.

unfortunatly, the demo rom junk still comes back. 'ansar' said he will repost a new rom, but i haven't seen it yet.
if anyone can provide us with a base/stock rom, i will write up instructions on how to get to mango (7661) without being dev unlocked once i get there
thanks...ansar help..please find us a stock rom.

What that article doesn't tell you is what version of Zune you need. If you've updated it, uninstall, then install zune from the official zune site. DO NOT WINDOWS UPDATE before you use this program. Plus in the phone, run the Update program, it'll do the rest.
Once it's done, open your phone in the zune software, and check for Device update (not zune software), it'll update to a newer version. Once that first phone update is done, check again, and THATS the Mango beta. The Mango beta will take around 40 minutes and appear unresponsive at times, so be patient.
Enjoy! I absolutely LOVE Mango so far, even though most apps dont multitask yet.

Info On Status Of Root For AT&T G955USQS3CRE2?

Hello everybody, new user here.
I'm somewhat familiar with the root process for devices, though I still consider myself a noob. I bought the phone when i first came out and there wasn't simple root out at the time, so i waited some time and mostly just forgot about it when i had the time to do it. Of course the noob in me, decided to keep updating my device in the mean time. Well, this morning i had decided to look into it again again and, from what I've read, there doesn't seem to be a working root out for the device at the moment. Build 3 eliminated to ability to downgrade from Oreo, if I am not mistaken, and I'm currently stuck on the latest update from AT&T.
My Software information is as follow; Android Oreo 8.0.0, Samsung Experience 9.0, Build Number R16NW.G955USQS3CRE2, KNOX 3.0, Kernel Version 4.4.78, and Security Patch Level May 1st, 2018(AT&T).
Ive been looking around for a little while now, but if anyone has some information to help out thatd be great.

This phone is a cast iron ***** in the current bootloader version.. Look at oreo beta thread around page 174.. & Read carefully.. Looks promising but be careful.

How do I root a Samsung Galaxy S7 Verizon (SM-G930V) Android Oreo 8.0?

How do I do it
I got the same exact one 3 days ago. It's on 8.0.0 now. I have been reading a lot to find answers how to root or install twrp. It looks like there is not a straight forward answer. Just development guides that are not so clear on if there is are for sure way to root or unlock bootloader.
Everything looks to lead me to the same answer. Snapdragon us variants like ours are bootloader blocked so no twrp. Can we use safestrap? What can we do to root and install custom? Even if it's it's a touchwiz. I have an s4 I'm also playing with. I wish my s7 could do what the the s4 does. But samsung us trying to let carriers like Verizon block our bootloaders Hendering our abilities to use the phones like we want. It sucks.
I hope for a method soon myself. I hope that someone can steer us the right way.

You echo my Frustrations. It feels good not to be the only one thinking these things. I think the reason there aren't any straightforward answers is because people are afraid of being sued. Why stop there? It begins with the owner of the phone who wants to root in the first place. They should sue themselves.
it doesn't seem logical to me. If I'm driving and, God forbid, I kill someone with my car do the people that taught me to drive get sued? it isn't an exactly perfect Analogy, but it's enough to start discussion, anywhere but here on this thread. LOL
Another thing is that phones are already very customized in that there are so many of them and they all function so differently even with the same ROM on a different provider Network does different things. it's probably difficult to give you the exact perfect set of instructions for your specific phone. Therefore knowing about Android and Linux and stuff is very helpful for filling in the gaps I will inevitably have. I have no such training and the times I have delved into it I"ve become completely lost.
A rudimentary understanding I do have. So I choose settings with the mindset of increasing the device lifespan, but nothing monumental.

The Qualcomm variants (your phone) are a little more difficult to root and there are several guides online how to do it but you have to make sure the guide says it is to root RK2 firmware on Oreo. RK2 has the December security patch i believe so there may not be a specific guide for that firmware yet but you can try and earlier guide which still works on your device after the December security patch.
This is to root G930V on Nougat from Jan 9 this year, it may work on Oreo too https://www.skyneel.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s7-verizon-sm-g930v-twrp-recovery
You could of course flash G930U firmware too which is unbranded USA and is known to work on Verizon devices. Sammobile XAA and USC. There is a modified version of Odin 13 to flash Verizon phones.

Samsung Galaxy S10e Downgrade 11-10 or even 9?

Hello dear XDA forum friends, I have one question, I was Apple user for a long time and I got Galaxy s10e.
Its a nice phone but it dont work well on Android 11, battery drain fast, phone is to hot and more and more..
I was wondering if I can downgrade it back to 9 or at least 10?
Long time ago I remember I used to flash custom ROMS and downgrade old Android phones but looks like now if they lock Bootloader you stack where you are.
So here are some infos:
One UI Version 3.1
Android 11
Baseband Version G970FXXSBFUE6
Kernel Version 4.14.113-21644994
Build number RP1A.200720.012.G970FXXSBFUF3
Knox 3.7 API level 33 TIMA 4.1.0 DualDAR 1.3.0
Service provider software version SAOMC_SM-970F_ODX_CRO_RR_0008 CRO/DHR,CRO/CRO
Welcome to XDA
Congratulations on ditching the sour Apple.
Post on that device's forum for best results.
The firmware you have probably also upgraded the boot loader version which may make it impossible to down grade. I'm have zero experience flashing these so I may be mistaken or a workaround.
Try a factory reset unless you already have after the upgrade or if you used SmartSwitch to transfer data from another model.
I've tried to downgrade even an Exynos phone- sadly Odin couldn't do it due to bootloader
Nope, the last update that would have allowed you to downgrade to Android 10 came out back in February

Question Firmware vs One UI? General learning

Good morning all,
I am relatively new to this forum but have perused it from time to time to gain a general understanding of what is involved with reflashing or reinstalling whatever is required to remove my carrier and everything that comes with it.
- I would like to inquire about some of the terminology used in this forum. When someone says firmware, is that considered to be the bios on a motherboard? One UI, is this the operating system that is similar to a windows operating system?
- I have seen the program Odin but is that for flashing only or does it also install the One UI?
- If i have a software version that is not the same as the one that I found online, but it is still for the same phone and carrier, is that ok to use if it is months older or newer?
- If I decide to completely reinstall everything brand new without the carrier customware, will this remove my unlock from that carrier?
- Is there a reputable site to download the firmware and One UI for my phone?
There is just so much and I do not want to just jump into a tutorial without understanding what I am installing and what things mean. If there is already something on this, I apologize in advance.
--Mike.

Firmware is what you call an operating system on the phones, and it is infact a firmware which is read only - if you not consider the root factor. The firmware we run, or the operating system in your terms (Similar to Windows XP) for phones in Android. We are currently running Android 12.
OneUI is the graphical layer which Samsung has built exclusively for their devices running Android. You cannot separately update them. When your Android OS is being updated, the graphical layer which samsung has built (OneUI) will be updated as well.

Odin is the flashing program built for windows. It can be used flash firmware to a Samsung device. More info on ODIN is can be found here ;

Since a lot of people will have their Galaxy S22 Ultra soon and I myself am thinking about either getting an S21 Ultra or S22 Ultra, I wanted to summarise a lot of information I found out during researching as Samsung devices are quite different...

You cannot flash an older firmware, as downgrading is not favored by Odin. You can always upgrade to a newer firmware if it matches your exact device model and CSC (Code that defines the region)
