I want to put my s6 that's a metro version back onto the metro firmware which is 5.1.1 baseband so I can't go back to a 5.0.2
I'm on a t-mobile Odin firmware right now .
Is there an option or link to where I can find the metro pcs g920TI firmware
So it boots up metro pcs.

According to my sources, the most recent baseband version for your device is G920T1UVU2COF9. The download link on Sammobile is here
What I don't understand, not being a real guru, is what the CSC represents. The download above has a CSC that indicates T-Mobile. I can't find one that says MetroPCS, and I'm not sure what the difference is.
This is all based on the SM-G920TRWATMB listed as a MetroPCS phone on Samsung.com
Exactly it says My model specific but labels the carrier as t-mobile. .although they are merged carriers in a sense so I wonder if they just state that because it' runs off t-mobile network .
Has anyone flashed this yet
All I want is to boot up metro pcs 5.1.1
Rather then wait for a 2 hour download loose my data and flash it and it ends up t-mobile Stock again.

Here a post of someone with version v11 Firmware and claims to not have reboots vs our aFirmware in USA version 10
The firmware would come from someone in Canada.

The LG Updater app shows V11F for Videophone and V11H for WindMobile up there. Probably set up for the respective carriers up there - don't know if they use the same bands.
Plugged phone it into my computer with the LG updater set to Canada. It checked the software, and indicated that I have the latest (v10f), so no update available. Wanted to see if it would offer to download 11F ( I would not have done it though).
Yeah you might be right.
Could be specific to their carriers. I was wondering if it was possible to change the carriers specific changes to match the united states firmware but still be able to have the updated firmware if any thing really changed.

For a while i haven't been able to use my phone now, i've tried almost everything to fix this bootloop but i think i may be trying to flash the wrong stock OS so i was wondering if anybody knows any specifics on the stock OS or where i can get it as i have looked on sammobile and i just have no clue, the model is SM-G920F on virgin mobile UK, thanks
Download this one for Virgin from Sammobile if that one doesn't work then try the BTU Version I'm with Three UK and for the life of me I can not install the H3G one but the BTU one works as I got my phone on Amazon from a company in France also SM-G920F version.
I'm thinking of getting an Galaxy S7 (T-Mobile version, SM-G930T) for my wife to replace her Nexus 4 which is on T-Mobile prepaid but my concern is "carrier bloat" that T-Mobile installed on the phone.
1. Is it possible to convert this phone to the regular US/stock version of the S7 which i believe is SM-G930UZKAXAA, I believe? I did some Googling and I see some discussions about "Odin" which I assume is the software to flash/convert the SM-G930T to the SM-G930U version?
2. Will Samsung Pay still work after converting it from the T-Mobile version to the US/stock version?
3. Any issues/disadvantages/problems to be aware of between the T-Mobile specific and non T-Mobile firmware to consider, in consideration of whether or not to convert?
Thanks, David
G930U and G935U firmware is maded for any US version that IS ALREADY UNLOCKED and want to convert it so you can remove all bloat preinstalled apps from the carrier and use the phone like it was G935F or G930F..
1- you can flash the U firmware on any US varaint Sprint, T-Mobile, ATT, but will REQUIRED a unlocked cell, and the bootloader had to be low or same as the U you want to flash.
2- will work, i already test it.
3- none, the U firmware is official from samsung and is created for that.. to be flashable on S7 unlocked for take it for overseas.
PS: its the same as g930F so mobile data icon will be enable, wifi call will not be there... and you can use bluetooh sharing.. etc.. but t-mobile features will be removed, if you have more experience you can enable them back.

I use a stock US galaxy s7 from T-Mobile, SM-G930T. From what I can tell it shouldn't cause any problems as it's not a custom Rom but stock firmware you can download directly from Samsung website.
I did some searching and found a few posts about sm-g930u extending battery life over sm-g930t with tmobile bloatware (can't say for certain as I've not tried myself).
In all it shouldn't harm functionally since it's stock firmware.
Hope this helps.

I extensively tested the U firmware before moving to T firmware (because I moved to the T-M side of Tracfone; the phone itself is ex-VZW); I have had exactly zero issues (with either U firmware or T firmware).
A tidbit; as a SM-G930T, you have access to both VoLTE *and* wi-fi calling - this was not the case for even VZW-native customers, let alone MVNO customers. (This has, in fact, been covered in the Verizon Wireless thread for the same phone.) It does not matter if you are merely using an MVNO (such as Tracfone). NO free Netflix, though. (Mice.)
I Have a G920I which is branded by an international carrier called Claro, Is there a way for me to flash just the non carrier version of the OS thru kies? I don't have root just want it debloated and Ive already disabled apps but don't want claro showing up upon startup also.
If this is possible, will OTA still work?
Hi,
I think it's safe to install a different country 920i firmware using Odin. I used to have Indian firmware on my Brazilian 920i and it still receives OTA without problems, since the device is still stock.
All the best,

Hi,
I used to live in US and got an S9 plus from AT&T. I moved to India (in July 2018), got it unlocked by getting the unlock code and procedure legitimately from AT&T. Put a Vodafone India sim card. It works fine since but I have not received a single update since. Last update is June 2018.
In sw information Service Provider SW version shows
SAOMC_SM-G965U_OYN_ATT_OO_0073

ATT/ATT/ATT
As I use this phone for work, our company mobile management tools prevent the use of rooted phones. How can I start receiving official OTA updates without tempering with the legit status of the device.
Thanks.

Because Vodafone does not offer updates for your model number. The carrier controls the updates and which devices are supported via update. Your device is not a Vodafone device, it is an AT&T device being used on the Vodafone network. If the original AT&T US stock firmware version is working fine, you should be able to download any updates that are available for your specific model number and then flash them manually.

Thank you for the answer. What will be the legitimacy status of the device after that? How do I flash manually an update? Do I need to use Odin or similar, since Samsung tools look at the CSC?
Thanks for your help!

Yes, use Odin. Find the updated firmware, just make sure it is for your specific model number and your region/carrier.

What will be the legitimacy status of the device? And where can I find a legit fw for G965U ATT. I couldn't find any so far.
Thank you for your help!
