Hi,
EE seem to take ages to update the firmware once new version come out and I am quite keen to get MM when it arrives (hopefully soon!).
If I flash BTU 5.5.1 software will it allow me to get 6.0 OTA when it comes out? Can I flash BTU over EVR or will I have to change CSC as well? I am not currently rooted and have not tripped Knox and would like to stay that way if possible.
Thanks for any help.
Can no-body offer any knowledge on whether I will be able to do this - flash BTU over EVR without changing CSC?
Please? :fingers-crossed:

I have the same Question (albeit I want to migrate G920I from Aus to Ind). The best answer i have found is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/best-to-change-csc-t3262575. Give it a try, should not trip KNOX. Do report back.

After flashing from my carrier branded firmware to BTU will I still get OTA updates. Also if I go with official firmware will it trip the Knox. Many thanks for your help
Also after I have flashed what is required to change the csc. Many thanks

Yes you are going to receive new updates
Hello all,
I purchased a Samsung Galaxy S6 G920f last year, the software for it is Austrian. I live in the UK, and have not yet received the MM update.
The phone is unlocked and currently on of network .
Do I need to change the firmware to an unlocked firmware eg. BTU? If so, do I use ODIN? Would this process break KNOX?
Or, should I just wait for OTA update?
AP G920FXXU3QOJL
CP G920FFXXU3C019
CSC G920FAUX3QOJ1
I have also checked smartswitch, but no update..
Thank you.
You could change to the UK firmware and flash via Odin. You should be able to pull the OTA update to MM. I done this myself and MM is a good update
Will flashing via ODIN trip KNOX?
Also, AUV in csc is Austria vodafone, has mm been released for this yet?
If your flashing official it shouldn't. It will treat that flash as an OTA update. Correct me if I'm wrong people.
Rooting would definitely trip knox.

Hi,
I have a S7 930f but in my country updates are really slow, anyone knows which region or csc gets updates more frequently, so I can flash that country firmware and get those ota updates?
Thanks.

Think NEE got the newest firmware first. I'd probably use samfirm (the application) and use whichever firmware that is newest(apd1 in this case with NEE CSC).
All I see problem and not downloading. Is there any confirmed downloads and installs of Nougat on G930F , like on any continent ?
No there isn't. Bye

What do you mean? British BTU officially updated two days ago and it's available for download, or I'm just not understanding your question? XD

It downloaded yesterday both of mine and my wife's S7's (UK - SG930F - Unlocked Version)
Yes I also got the BTU OTA 3 days ago. I was having unlock issues, basically requiring me to enter pin most of the time and not accepting fingerpint unlock. Deleted and entered my fingerprints then a factory reset and still the same. Flashed back to australian firmware and the problem went away. Samsung Pay also does not work for US users with BTU firmware but it works fine with australian. So I'm back to waiting and hope when I get the next OTA the unlock issue doesn't happen again. I personally wasn't blown away but I only stayed with it a day. I didn't like the new notification panel...but I'm sure most do.
I have also had problems with my S7 on Nougat BTU. My S7 is a ETL (Checz Unlocked) in Spain. Data connection doesn't seem to work. All works except that (calls, sms, wi-fi). I tried also O2C, also Nougat. I've downgraded to MM ETL and Data connection works fine. I'm now downloading MM BTU, just in case data works in MM. If it does, I will try to upgrade to N.
You are missing point guys. I have regular international unbranded (no carrier) version of SGS7 Model G930F. Question is this.
Is there any confirmed OTA downloads and successful updates without ANY modifications. Download and install just simply by going into download manually or automatic notification about Nougat available just like any other update. I see ODIN, BTU some other crap that I need to do. NO. I want OTA without doing anything. So once again is there any confirmed OTA updates for international version of G930F. Like Right now I have software version: G930FXXU1BPLB/G930FOJV1BPK2/G930FXXU1BPJJ
If you can point of what EXACT version of international unit I have that'll be great because if people receiving updates already I don't understand why I am not.
P.S.
I do understand there are different versions of G930F but all I want is OTA to Nougat without doing anything.
Thanks !

Only country code BTU has OTA update for Nougat, if your G930F is not running a BTU CSC, you have to wait
Or, flash BTU Marshmallow and you'll get the OTA straight away

I've downloaded the btu firmware from sammobile. There are 5 files therein. Do I flash all or just the AP with odin?

I flashed all except HOME_CSC
(CSC will reset the phone to factory defaults)
Which is a good thing for a major OS upgrade IMO
Does anyone have a link to BTU_CSC?the CSC in the BTU 7.0 firmware doesn't change my product code
That is my point. BTU is a variant of G930F. How about All of them ? I mean they're not saying some variants are being updated, they're saying G930F and G935F being updated. I wish someone had some understand or some stats of what variants are receiving update.
Hi all,
I'm back to Samsung after a number of years away at HTC and LG! Last Samsung was an S2 and so I've used Odin, reflashed firmwares, rooted etc. before so know my way around this stuff in a general sense.
I got an S7 from CEX recently to replace my broken LG G3 but the firmware on it seems to be a slightly older / foreign one and I want to get onto a clean UK / EU firmware, so I can keep stem with OTAs that I see friends' S7's receiving. My current firmware is baseband G930FXXU1BPJE, build number G930FXXU1ZPK4.
I've looked on SAMMobile and can see two options for UK unbranded; XEU and BTU. So my first question is what one should I use and what the difference is?
Secondly, when I use Odin to flash whichever one is correct, will I need to repartition? Or will factory resetting after flash be enough to properly correct the CSC?
Finally, will this still show up as an 'untampered' phone, and receive OTA correctly?
Thanks for the help.
XEU has the most updated firmware atm with a February security patch, where BTU is still on January afaik, both unbranded UK firmwares
If you flash them using CSC (Not HOME_CSC) which will reset the phone and change CSC, then you will remain KNOX 0x0 and receive OTAs for whichever CSC you choose, XEU or BTU
No need to repartition
I did read something about needing to flash to another CSC supported by the current CSC on your phone atm (Multi CSC) before flashing to the one you want to change to, but not sure about that, I've only ever switched between BTU and XEU, and BTU is multi CSC containing XEU too

Thanks, I'll stay alert to that possibility. I'll go with the XEU variant and hopefully be ok. Just need to backup my stuff first.

Hello, did you have any luck changing your CSC without Re-Partitioning ?
Im in the same situation right now (DDE CSC, still on 6.0.1) and I am kinda scared after reading so many posts where people bricked their phones.
