my current rom is custom stock debloated and deodexed from from Pavan. i don't know what is the CSC code of the rom but its based on J700MUBU2APF1

Try this
Download the ZTO MM rom.
Do a full wipe in TWRP.
Reboot into download mode.
Flash the MM rom via Odin.
You'll have to reinstall TWRP (Odin) and reroot (TWRP).

Downgrade to lollipop

Any way to Downgrade to lollipop
i tried to flash lollipop by odin but fail
My phone : j700f
Hi.
This is is what I did.
Install TWRP, if you haven't, then install a CUSTOM lollipop ROM from this forum.
If you want stock lollipop, flash it via Odin - after flashing the custom lollipop ROM.
Good luck!
Not working
first flash stock MM then flash stock LL then flash custom LL
Try it again, and make sure that the auto reboot box and F.reset time box is checked in Odin Options
Make sure you flash your country frimware. Else it will fail in odin. And use latest odin.
Bro you need to download latest lollipop firmware
I had the same problem and it was solved by fresh firmware of latest date
Goodluck ?

Stuck on 5.1.1

I'm a rooted 5.1.1 J700M user with TWRP and basically I can't run any ROM i see in this forum, everything needs Marshmallow, those godly A5 ROMs which improve speed need MM too.
I tried going back to Stock Recovery and Firmware with Odin but failed, tried another thing by converting the zImage or recovery to a flashable with Odin too and failed again.
I'm a Lollipop 5.1.1 user how can go to 6.0.1, the update isnt even showing on the System Update, so i guess i must use a PC.
Please help on upgrading my rooted 5.1.1 TWRP J700M to Marshmallow
Go to www.updato.com and get an MM rom for your fon and region.
Flash with Odin.

I think you can flash this https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/development/rom-resurrection-remix-mm-5-7-0-t3414185 and then flash ROMS that require Android 6.0 , As it is saying that to install Resurection remix, it may be with Android LP, or MM,

Help updating my rooted device.

This is what is installed on my device: TWRP 3.0.2-3 / android 6.01 (I THINK it's a bit modified rom) / SM-G930FD
I rooted asap I bought it few years ago, I want to update to the latest Nougat version 7.0.0 (I think the 7.1.2 is not officially released, right?)
All I need is stock (slightly modified is also ok) + root and don't mind formatting it to start from the scratch.
What are my options and/or what should I do? Thanks for reading!
Flash the latest stock ROM with Odin, then root.

Thanks for the reply.
Can't the TWRP do the same thing? If I flash using the Odin, will I lose the TWRP?
You need to use Odin to flash a stock ROM which will cause you to lose root and twrp.

Could you tell me which ones should I use? What do you think about the smartswtich?

I recommend matching the ROM to the original carrier.

It's an international unlocked version, does it have a "carrier"? How do I find it? I'm located in Japan and imported this phone.
You can install the Samsung Phone Info app from the Play Store to find out the csc and match that to the ROM.

Oreo Custom ROMs on Canadian W8 variant - Anyone successful?

Given that the Oreo S7 update has now been delayed, I've been trying to flash a variety of the custom BTU and Note 8 ported ROMs on my Canadian W8 variant. Every single one I've tried will put me into a bootloop or hang at the S7 logo. I feel like I must be doing something wrong and would appreciate any help if possible.
I'm currently using the Superman Nougat ROM v2.5.0
I've tried the following steps:
Doing a full wipe - Reboot to TWRP - Wiping everything except SD - Reboot to TWRP
Installing each ROM either using AROMA or flashing no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip then installing the zip for the ROM and/or flashing Magisk-v16.4(1642) and/or SuperSUv2.82
I've chosen both updating the bootloader and modem and NOT updating the bootloader and modem, but no difference. I've tried all different combinations above and I've tried flashing stock via ODIN beforehand.
If anyone has had any success with flashing any of the Oreo ROMS out there on the W8, please let me know which ROM you are using and what steps you've taken to flash successfully. It would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much!
Updates?
I am running W8 on Alex DevBase ROM 5.8 (WAS running)
I Odin flashed back to Oreo stock tho recently.
Best of luck.
You need to update to oreo with odin first
Just flash stock oreo, install twrp.
After that you gonna be able to use oreo rom.
I'm on superman 3.0.1 right now.
I'm using Resurrection Remix on the W8 S7 right now.

I did flash stock Oreo via Odin (lost root)
I CAN flash TWRP but getting root is where I run into problems. What am I doing wrong?
I did find that Dev OP from Superman posted an updated TWRP specific for Oreo S7 maybe I should try that one?
