hello,
i rooted my galaxy s7 [G930f] from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...rp-herolte-t3333770/post65771911#post65771911
now i want to flash it back to stock firmware
how to return back ?
is flashing stock rom from samfirmware with odin enough for that ?
or just flashing stock rom from samfirmware may bring my set to bootloop ?
need help plz
Why would flashing a stock ROM get you into a bootloop?! Download you corresponding stock from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930F/, flash via ODIN and you're done.
I'm in the same boat as OP and have an additional question. When I flash the stock ROM (I'm assuming the AP part), will that wipe out my data?
I'm trying to unroot so I can try out Android Pay for a week. I had xposed before and rooted. I already tried uninstalling xposed and using the SuperSu uninstaller but Android Pay is still detecting that my phone is modified. So I'm looking into reflashing stock, but I"d rather keep my data if possible.
Here is a much faster download link for the latest Stock ROM.

New S7 zip from sammobile has 5 files. You must flash 4 with Odin. AP,CL,BL,CSC . not home CSC. It reformats and wipes the device. Totally stock after that except triggered knox

Edit. Above link has latest UK BTU ROM.
It's perfect to flash with that
What if you just want to install another region firmware, will this change your csc so you can get updates from that region?, Installing the firmware from another region will trigger knox?, its so confusing with the new 5 files firmware now..

If u flash AP_G930* / BL_G930* / CP_G930* / CSC_***_G930* and ignore HOME_CSC_***_G930* u will :
* Get the CSC of the rom u flashed if it is single CSC
* Get the default CSC if it`s a multi CSC rom ( will not be the one which is stated as country when u download )
* Wipe ALL your data fresh
* Not trigger Knox status
I just flashed my duos with XEU ( Single CSC rom ) G930FXXU1APD3

I have a 930F and it won't show LTE icon only a 4G icon but I am connected to LTE through T-Mobile. Can I flash all 5 files and be ok? Attached is my phone info.

I don`t really know what u want to do .
LTE = 4G.
If u flash first 4 files u will be ok, just ignore the 5`th one
U need to manually edit the fifth in a linux environment so don`t bother with it
Usually it is better to flash a rom closer to the country u live in, and i think u don`t live in Kenya

For some reason just having the 4G icon bugs me. LOL. Not in Kenya at all, LOL, I live in the U.S. so I wonder which one I should flash?

This i don`t know. Not sure which icon i have on my XEU ( UK / Ireland - very clean rom not much bloat, not branded ) version because in my city i don`t have 4G. On previous phone S4 mini duos, people from US used roms from Europe and was ok. I was going to recommend some Brazil rom since is closer to u, but not sure which one is better in US.
Or u can try the ones branded for T-Mobile Europe like Austria MAX , Croatia CRO , Germany DTM , Poland TPL etc.
I've been thru this paradox before.. Hahaa'
I am Brazilian but now living in Ireland, I've always used BTU ROMs before back in Brazil, but since I move to Europe I am using XEU, which is one of the best if you're living in Europe.. cause receive updates really quick from Samsung as it is for Unbranded phones in Ireland and UK!
I've used to live in US before, New England area.. always had TTT (Trinidad e Tobago) ROMs, is such a small country in Central America but they always received updates from Samsung as soon as they're released!
That's the one I'll highly recommend for you.. TTT!
@iScott78
XEO version have this in CSC others.xml : <CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigOverrideDataIcon>LTE</CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigOverrideDataIcon>
I think this is what u are looking for ^^
Maybe others have it too, don`t have the time to check.

Does it come with any type of carrier bloat? Also is the icon for data 4G or LTE?

Hi all, got an update this morning for the baltic variant of kit kat.
27mb
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Details from my Note 3
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Downloading...
Off the 3 official kitkat 4.4.2 roms I have tested, Switzerland & Poland & Baltic, I find the Baltic one the best.
At least I get to use kitkat before the BTU variant is released,as long as I use the official sam-mobile firmware, basically I can test the different country variants of the new kitkat 4.4.2 without fear of tripping knox, and I still get the OTA updates.
Did you check your CSC?I had Netherland 4.4.2 PHN-N9005XXUENA6 and after i see what you write here i flash Baltic SEB-N9005XXUENA6 for the OTA update.Everything went ok but after i get the update now it's Poland new version CSC:NB1 (XEO).
Before update...
After update...
But here you don't see the CSC.You must install phone info and there you can see what country you have.

Hi orly.
Didn't see that, weird? why would an update change the CSC back to Poland, my CSC also shows N9005OXXENB1 and kies still says its an official version?
So to try to understand process I did a wipe cache and wipe data in recovery and it still shows N9005OXXENB1, so I re flashed Baltic ROM again and it now shows CSC N9005OXXENA5, now when I plug my note 3 into kies it says it wants to change it back
Just realised that the CSC has changed but both were the same XEO!
See screen dump.
Yes it's like mine.But the problem is that i have the Baltic CSC and now i have the Polonian CSC. Only with OTA update.

To see CSC put in *#1234# in phone dialer
I will flash the Switzerland ROM again after tea and report back, I am guessing that the first kitkat ROM you flash is the CSC you get stuck with unless you root, and the CSC variations are only small software programs that are country specific like the Switzerland ROM. As I flashed the first official Poland ROM I am stuck with XEO.
The core features like like say having 4G in settings are ROM specific not the CSC files, which is why I swapped between all the 3 kitkat versions I have tested..
My first rom was a baltic 4.3 with that one i bought the Phone.First time i have Baltic CSC then uk CSC after flash i made a full wipe and then Netherland CSC. I verify in kies3.
Phew..
So I flashed the Switzerland ROM again and my CSC is now N9005PHNENA2, I tried hard reset from menu and hasen't changed, plugged into pc for kies and says its latest? So I was wrong you can change the CSC it appears?
Which is great as I am waiting for the BTU variant this month hopefully.
I told you. Only on my s3 i need a software for change csc. It mean That you flash a old firmware. You didnt trip Knox?

Hi orly.
No my Knox fine, as long as I use official 4.4.2 ROM's. Now on latest Poland ROM.
@gadjet Just to clarify, you flashed the official polish rom with odin and knoxx wasnt tripped? If so what odin version did you use?

I have never been rooted on my Note 3, and I only flashed official firmware from samfirmare.com, not posted ones on XDA just in case, I use odin 3.09
You can see from my previous screen dumps while I flashed different variants this week, and I include a screen shot from my note 3 as of today with the latest Poland ROM.
I've flashed Official Poland 4.4.2 Feb 2014 too... just curious can you install an application from APK files ? I seems having problems not able to do it short while after Factory Reset... already enable in setting thou but still the Install bar can't be click...
? SM-N9005 @ Tapatalk ?
Yes you can.But first you must enable from settings unknown sources.Everything it's ok no wifi drop or something else sayed somebody.
New Poland ROM has same problems for me as first Poland release, i.e.. screen off f-ups and wake lock problems, phone does random lock ups when switching screen back on, and no buttons seem work for a few seconds and screen blank, capacitive buttons sometimes light up? I had to hold power button down for 10 seconds once to get a re boot!
So I am flashing back to the Baltic ROM again.
Hello XDA users,
I bought a galaxy S6 two months ago I always try different ROMS and Kernels but now I want to flash Marshmallow.
I have the unlocked version, SM-G920F running XtresTolite and Hacker Kernel on the 5.1.1 bootloader. I live in Israel my phone's service provider is Golan-Telecom it's taken from Cellcom. As if I flash cellcom's firmware for the galaxy s6 it will work on Golan Telecom cuz it's from it.
I want to flash Marshmallow through Odin cuz I don't have the update.
Can I flash any official Marshmalllow on my phone without problems like losing my network like "Not registered on network", if so, please tell me what I can flash and tell me the steps. I already have a TWRP backup.
Thank you. ?
I never had carrier problems while traveling so I guess You won't have any problems either.
1. Dowmload newest rom for Cyprus or United Kingdom from Sammobile.com (or any 6.0.1 that is unbranded).
2. Download odin 10.7.1
2a. Use usb2.0 ports only.
3. Hold power+vol down+home (to boot into odin mode)
4. Unpack the zip file and in AP select Your tar.md5 file.
5. Let it reboot. Enjoy.

The cyprus version looks like the only one that isn't unbranded (UK is vodafone branded, don't know if that's good?). Also the france MM is also unbranded but the PDA version is different from the rest. It's G920FXXU3DPAD instead of G920FXXU3DPB8.
So which one should I choose the unbranded cyprus or the unbranded france one?
I have the Proximus branded version from Belgium btw.

I was always had problems going from XEF to ANY other FW.... I don't suggest to use it.
I hope it takes only few days to get another FW, wich is unbranded.
I flashed XEF french MM to my g920f, no problems at all, spo2 works, everything works, battery is good, camera flawless
Just flash XEF like @Duzzy5 said or get cyprus version. It's Your choice . Both versions are pretty much identical.
Hi guys, I bought a S7 that was originally meant for UAE area. While almost everything works great, there is one thing that I'd prefer to change... The S Planner with this phone includes Hijri calendar. No offence to anyone, but I really don't need at all... Yet I can't hide it. So I was wondering if I can sideload a S Planner app from other rom to overwrite it. I don't want to root my phone yet. Will there be problem if I do so? Or the only problem will that it will always reverse back to UAE version after every OTA...?
Personally prefer China version since there is Lunar calendar that I do need, unfortunately their newest version is 3.1.50 vs 3.1.51 on mine so it won't allow me to install... If it's OK to install, could anybody share me a neutral version (without any additional calendars) that have version no lower than 3.1.51?

Hi mate
what S7 type you have?
I think you need to be root for that as this is system app.....
Another option would be to flash a firmware that has what you need...
For the G930F you have this nice guide they show you how to flash with odin ( official ) a different firmware and avoid ( if you want ) factory reset your phone

If you use home csc instead of CSC it will not wipe the data
I guess I'll need to change to other CSC area instead of middle east to achieve what I want... Is it possible without wiping?

Hi guys! I tried posting to a different forums but no luck in replies. So, I tried to go here and find some answers.
So, Im waiting for the official update for my phone (SM-G610Y - here's my latest firmware: PDA - G610YZTU1AQF2, CSC - G610YOLC1AQF1), but Im planning to flash a new firmware. Although, since PH-OpenLine havent rolled-out a firmware nougat update, I want to use Australia's firmware (PDA - G610YZTU1BRC3, CSC - G610YXSA1BRC3).
Questions:
-Will my phone still work if I will do it? And will my device status change from official to custom?
-Should I use all four files (BL, AP, CP, CSC) when flashing the update/firmware?
-Will there be any conflicts/problems?
-If it caused a problem, can factory reset (as others said in other forums) work to revert back to the original and official status of the phone? Or will there be any solutions to rollback?
Thank you!!!
Hi
Install this software .... Phone INFO ★Samsung★
The CSC tab (page 2) will show you the compatible CSC codes for your device. I.e. installing official software from those countries should be ok.
Flashing official software won't change your status, aka trip knox
Flashing your original, official software should restore to factory state.
Good luck!
Thank you for replying and answering some of my questions.
So I decided to use Australia's firmware. I just wanna ask which one is the compatible csc? Is it the available csc from the phone info app? If yes, XSA is not included, what will be the problems when I continue to flash it (if there are any)?
And more importantly, should I flash all 4 files or just AP? And any important matters before I flash?
Thank you!
If XSA is not on the CSC list, you need to take care that the mobile networks in Australia are compatible with those in your home country - both gsm?
Also I would avoid a network specific firmware.
Any specific reason for choosing XSA?
Flash all 4 files.
Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk
How about I update using XSA and changing my CSC code after the update is finished? Will it work?
Whats a network specific firmware? Is it the one uploaded in the sammobile (thats where my firmware came from)?
And no, I dont have any specific reason for choosing XSA. I only have 3 options (NZC, VFJ, and XSA).
Sorry for being a newbie and thank you so much

If your home network and Australia use the same radio tech i.e. gsm, no need to change the CSC, just upate
Whats a network specific firmware? Is it the one uploaded in the sammobile (thats where my firmware came from)?
E.g. for Israel (ILO) is generic for rest of Israel. There's also firmware specific for Pelephone in Israel (PCL)[/I]
And no, I dont have any specific reason for choosing XSA. I only have 3 options (NZC, VFJ, and XSA).
I see why now .... Here is a faster source .... you can use a download accelerator 610Y firmware on Updato.com
Download and enjoy!

More on the network specific firmware - for Phillipines XTC would be generic (Open Line). XLA Smart and GLB Globe would be network specific.

I don't find note 20 ultra Dual sim firmware. Does the N986b/ds use same firmware as the N986b without loosing dual sim function? Reason I'm thinking on flashing is cause I have a xfa version and network reception is really bad and thinking on flashing btu. Do u guys think that a new firmware might help? (all other devices I get 3 bar at home and with note 20 ultra sometimes I have no network)
Check here for your required FW.
N986B is the Global Exynos model (it is Dual-SIM = DS); in case if any regions are single-SIM for this particular model (I'm not aware as such), the N986B FW will still be the same as for DS.

It's possible I think.
But..... only try other Exynos region FW (cannot flash FW for SnapDragon variants on N986B without running into problems).
Check on Note 20 threads regarding properly changing CSC.
Also, there are some .xml modification solutions that enable you to activate extra 4g/5g bands - worth a search & try.
(Sorry I don't have the links to hand, but recall seeing these discussions before on N20 XDA forums).
I'm with Three UK does this help

When you un-compress the firmware download you will get five files. Each go into a specific part of ODIN - can't mistake it - but if you want to keep data intact you will need to flash Home_CSC. This will NOT change your regional CSC however.
You also need the "hacked" version of ODIN found on this forum easily.

If I flash that 5 files will I still be able to get Ota?
When I flash should I use CSC or HOME CSC. So that I keep getting updates? I think that if I flash UK international firmware, will sort alot of my issues. It feels in my country software is never very stable.
Flashing CSC will delete your Data but flashing HOME_CSC will not delete your Data.

Will both ways I still get Ota even if I install btu firmware? (is there any benefit on me flashing the csc and not Home_CSC?)
Once bootloader unlocked I don't think you can get OTA - You'll need to flash FW updates manually.
Flash CSC for clean install.
Flash HOME_CSC if just updating FW & need to preserve user data.

Not unless you re-lock BL.
