What do you think yourself?
S7: SM-G930F
S7Edge: SM-G935F
Notice the difference? +Edge? There's also "Edge software" in the 935F!
So, the answer is... -> NO!
?
Think custom rom the present will be more in the future?

It's hard to predict, but the S6 development forum might give you somewhat of an idea of what to expect in a year. If development is very important to you, you might consider the HTC 10. It's looking like a great device with an unlocked bootloader.

Why, this rom is suitable for both 930F and 935f ?

Hello guys,
I've downloaded firmware 5.1.1 for my Galaxy S6 SM-G920F but I didn't flash it because some of the websites said that it will cause battery drainage very badly.
Any one has done it? what about solving Ram issue? any information please

Because if you update to 5.1.1 you have to break/trip knox to gain root, but if you have 5.0.2 you won't have to
Thanks for the info,
What about downgrading? Is it possible to get back to 5.0.2 after the update?

It means better not to update if they didnt solve Ram issue
Sent from my SM-G920F
5.1.1 is much smoother and have less battery drain in my opinion.
I don't care about knoxx, the only thing what is important is smoothness of my phone.
I tryed custom recovery, stock recovery, root, no root,
And to be honest now I'm running the latest Xtrestolite (odex) and it's the best update till now! ( in my opinion )
5.1.1 will come to you at some point weather you like it or not. Best version of 5.1.1 is the one offered via OTA which is specific to your country. No fears of bricking your phone or voiding your warranty. A little patience is needed to wait for it as Samsung deploys it slower than we expected it. If you are the one who cares only for the latest which on most cases is the greatest and willing to take risks then flash away.
Thanks guys for the answers,
Mine is SM-G920F which the update came for france! Is it workable in other countries?
I'm just wondering is the 920F the more popular international model over the 920I? I have the 920F by the way.
There seems to be all kinds of bugs with 5.1.1, is it worth updating to it? If anything, I think I'll at least wait for the OTA, I live in America so will I get the OTA at same time as others around the world?
Can anyone confirm longer exposures than 1/10 sek in 5.1.1? For example try Manual Camera. In 5.0.2 the max. exposure is 1/10
Thanks!
I've updated it and its really smooth and faster.
But unfortunately the Ram Issue is the same! Still reaching 88%!!
Its a large update, its o er 500mb. I updated with no problems. I find the battery life a bit better. The phone runs smoother and there are a few extras with camera. I'm nit a camera person but do a search and you'll get the idea of the chance. You can now get rid off s finder and quick connect. Other features too. I like the update and Knox is not important to me, however. YOU CAN'T ROOT, right now.

Says Kernel not supported and it wont boot. Now have to use Odin to get back. 920P is not supported! Can't get back thru Odin so I'm letting it boot. Taking a long time and but finally there. I had to wipe everything. I'll let you know if it's rooted now. It booted but can;t use touch.
Did you guys update to 5.1 via ota? I'm in the UK with a non branded s6 and nothing available for me
Topic says it all!! If yes from wich one?
Anyone?
I assume you are talking about SM-G920W8?
If so, then that depends if you are on android 5.1.1 or 6.0.1. for 5.1.1 there are several options, here for example.
If you are running 6.0.1 i'm not sure, but i don't think there's anything out for you yet.
If the rom supports W8, it's written in the ROM, so to answer your question: No, if a custom rom states it supports only SM-G920F and SM-G920I for example, you can't flash that on your device.

Hello everybody,
I'm looking for the answer of my question but I still didn't find it. I live in Hong Kong and I bought a SGS7 from Korea, the model is SM-G930K. The phone is unlocked but there are bloatwares from the carrier and I can't remove the sound of the camera on this model.
That's why I was wondering if I could use an international rom like from the SM-G930F? I wanted to try but I'm afraid of bricking the phone. The SM-G930K from Korea is also a Exynios version, so I really hope I can flash it with an international rom.
Thanks in advance.

G930K user here, too. Yes you can, but directly flashing G930F firmware through odin is not possible due to difference in partition sizes. Still, you can flash custom ROMs which can be installed through TWRP(e.g. Superman ROM).

But custom ROMs have to mention G930K or not? Or just a classic custom ROMs from G930F is ok?
I remember, a long time ago, may be before Android, I edited the ROM just with an hexadecimal app, and I could change the model and some stuff. We can't do something like this neither?

Just flash G930F ROMs, it doesn't matter whether G930K support is mentioned or not. No need to edit anything.

Isn't it what the re-partition option for?
Sorry to bump an old thread, but that't the clearest discussion I've found so far regarding flashing on the K variant.
I'm asking this for the S7E though (G935K > G935F) and everyone on the other forum says that it is just impossible to do anything on the K version ( which seems weird to me since the hardware is exactly the same and root/TWRP work fine).

I made a research during few weeks about that, and it's still not clear. I have also read that the modem is faster than the classic S7. But I have not found a loud and clear answer.
Until someone try to flash a G930F rom on a G930F phone, we won't know.

Hi. Apparently you cannot. If you want another rom, you have to install an alternative recovery, root your phone, and install a custom rom.
Anyone found clear answer?

Hi. No you cannot. Check my previous message, the only way is to install custom rom.
Those devices have same hardware. But the partition sizes are different. If you want to know, just flash custom recovery (TWRP) to your korean S7 and flash LineageOS or RR. Because all of them suggested our devices as well like this: (G930 F|W8|K|L|S). It will fail when you try to flash it by recovery. Because Galaxy S7's Korean variant's partition sizes are different from international and canadian S7s. There was one guide to flash AOSP ROMs to Korean S7's. There will be guide to resize of partitions on ROM's installation. But all commands are needs Linux Based OS, but not Android. I was tried it by Termux on my Galaxy S7. ext2simg command was still not available on Android's terminal . Others was available... so sad. And python codes are so simple to run. One day I will try it on Linux Based OS'd PC.

Not fine. But our devices have same hardware (F = W8 = K = L = S). Only the partition sizes are different. You just need to flash custom recovery (TWRP) then choose custom rom what you want for your S7. I'm suggesting SuperMan ROM and BatMan ROM. They are so stable, and clean. BatMan ROM was not fully stable on my G930K. Then I tried SuperMan ROM's clean, stock installation method on AROMA. It was really clean and Stable on my G930K. Try it bro :fingers-crossed: all of them TouchWiz interfaced. If you want try AOSP, you need to resize your partition sizes by this guide.
Is it possible that I install twrp to install smg930fd firmware in my smg930s Samsung s7 and uninstall twrp after doing this ?
Hello,
I just wanted to check if the roms for SM-G930F/FD will also work on my SM-G930W8 before i start spending time on this.
Thanks!!

What is a dual chip?
Is there a difference between g930w8 and g930f?
Stock ROMs definitely won't, you'll brick your phone if you manage it
Bootloaders are different at the very least
Just to let you now that I flashed nougat (SuperNexus) to my sm-g930w8 (canadian). trhe room is ever an edge based one. it works good except these issues:
- In multiuser, I cannot configure a display lock except in the main user (very bad for me because I wanted to secure all my 3 users). When I try, the setting app close itself.
- no separated fingerprint either for each user.
Except that everything is perfect. note: I did not flash the bootloader neither the modem.

@mr__T
Please read my past post. Is that answer your question?
Hey guys hope you are having a good day, I read online that some variants of galaxy s7 won't receive the nougat update, is that true ? Or did all the variants receive it ?
Thank you in advance.
After reading too myself, It was found to be a bug. If that is indeed the case, there is no reason to worry as you can easily use ODIN to flash the latest version of Nougat.
