Question on installing firmware
Hello I have a SM-G935U and I want to know if it's possible to put the Stock T-Mobile Firmware >> G935TUVU4APK1 << onto it without rooting and bricking the device? If so do I just use ODIN to put it on? and if so can you please give me step by step or a link to show me also. I have the firmware already just wanted to ask an expert opinion if it can be done and if it has can you explain in detail how to install it.
Sorry for not starting a new thread, this site wouldn't let me because I was new to this forum.

Does this work for all variants of the Snapdragon variants of the S7 Edge?

OS-Updates after rooting S6

Hi at all,
I rooted my S6 successfully with CF-Auto-Root by chainfire. I am now not able to do an OTA-update within the OS, so I think I have to flash updates of stock roms by downloading it from sammobile.com and flash it via ODIN. When I follow the last advices given in some threads I have to go to http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?r=&v=&q=sm-g920f and look for the latest firmware released by samsung. But how do I know which one the correct one is? The version always begins with G920FXX followed by U3 or S3. Can anyone tell me the "syntax" of the meaning of the firmware version or the deifference between these two version-trees? Do I have to choose the german version if I bought a german phone, or does it not depend on that?
Again my question in a short way: How can I update OS/firmware after rooting the S6?
Thanx-a-lot for your hints and ideas!
Regards
Clemens

[SOLVED] Root G930F running 6.0.1

Hi everyone!
I'm trying to root my G930F running 6.0.1. I downloaded the corresponding CF-Auto-Root from https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ and flashed it using the integrated Odin. After that my phone didn't boot anymore. I got an exception from the bootloader (same as in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/s7-edge-bug-t3331878).
Luckily I was still able to get into download mode. So installed TWRP and flashed SuperSU (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770). Flashing SuperSU yielded some exceptions.
After a restart, my phone was working again and I was very relieved. Still the phone is not rooted. So I'm wondering what I am doing wrong, how can I root my phone?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Wow, you are fast, thank you for taking the time! I used the Odin that came with the CF-Auto-Root. The file is called "Odin3-v3.10.6.exe", so I guess it's the wrong version. Do you think I should try again with the newer version? After the first attempt I'm a bit scared I could brick my phone.
Do you have a link to the appropriate Odin verison?
Just out of curiosity, do you know the reason, why it doesn't work with older versions of Odin?
As the phone is important for me, I tried hard not to be stupid and to follow the guides. I checked multiple sources, but I didn't come across the information about a specific version of Odin. Normally I use guides from xda-developers as they are good and reliable. The info thread links to the following thread for rooting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/sm-g930-exynos-cf-auto-root-t3337353
There was no mention of a specific Odin version. I'm not trying to blame my mistake on someone else, just trying to find out how I can prevent a similar mistake the next time.
Ok, found a credible source for the download: http://odindownloader.com/download/odin3-v3-12-5
Got there starting from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odin_(firmware_flashing_software)
I'm always a bit paranoid I could get some virus instead of the legit software.

I guess just reading through threads, not just the main post, and if unsure, make a post in that thread asking what you are unsure about before jumping in
This is my copy of 3.12.3
Code:
https://mega.nz/#!acoGhA7a!17OPP5A1g9d7-GxAqCbjXFpmYfO7CgAHNcaZxqEkOao
Not sure why older versions are not compatible, I assume newer phone model & new(ish) Android version = New ODIN version needed to support them
Make sure you use the latest version of CF -Auto Root for your model S7 too (G930F)

You are my hero! Now it works and is rooted. So the problem really was the outdated version of Odin that came with CF-Auto-Root.

Hi
If you are talking about this procedure , yes you can
F and FD are the same device , also in the thread is mentioned
This is for the International SM-G930F/FD/X, Korean SM-G930K/L/S, and Canadian SM-G930W8 Exynos models only! Do not flash on S7 edge or Qualcomm models!

I want to flash a stock rom, help!

Howdy. I have been doing this for years but i am a little out of the loop.
carrier TMobile
baseband G930TUVS8CRL1
I recently tried to root my s7 with kingroot but I guess thats maybe malware and I'm kinda paranoid about it. In either case I would like to flash a stock OS to the phone. I would like to use a rom from a verified source such as tmobile.
Where can I download the official OS? Preferably not a mirror site.
Is rooting even possible on my baseband currently?
Thanks y'all

Hi there
U can download official stock frimware from sammobile but its slow speed ,you can use updato.com its faster ( just make sure u put correct model in search
There is also samfirm app for pc (google it)
Never root with kingroot , use the proper way if your model is unlocked.
Dunno abouth s7 usa models, most of them are with locked bootloader meaning phone cant be rooted
Edit : actually go here for your variant and see what u can find about rooting your g930t

Yeah man I did see that, but I wasn't really sure if it was for tmobile
Also I would rather download the files directly from samsung or tmobile
How do I know if kingroot installed some malware on my phone???
PS: naw it's a locked phone

You can't directly download firmware from Samsung let alone from tmobile
These sites are only one who can obtain official firmware for all variant for all models.
Here is direct link for your g930t tmobile
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930T/
Just scroll down a bit
U can't root your phone with kingroot , it will most likely fail . Go to t-mobile s7 xda section ,there u can find all info needed for whatever u need
Good luck

Sorry for being difficult but how do you know that whoever made a samfirm didn't make it install malware on the phone also?
If that program can download directly from samsung why can't i!
First I've heard of that, they'd be banned from xda if that were true.
Sounds like it would have been a dodgy third party rehosting their own version.
Samsung encrypts their firmware files, and they don't sit on a permanent link or anything, so you need a tool to find and decrypt the files.

SM-G930U root for v9 Bootloader "G930UUEU9CSA3"

i got the latest security update via OTA and an now running the G930UUEU9CSA3 firmware, ive tried flashing the eng boot img i originally used to root from here "https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-s7-s7edge-oreo-nougat-t3819616" but odin fails every time, i'm pretty sure its because the new security update updated the bootloader also... to version 9. now i guess my question is are there any eng boot files for the v9 bootloader available yet? or any other usable root methods available?

That wasn't very clever was it.
Should never update branded unless it's to fix a major bug. Any loophole which allows root or flash is closed on an update until someone figures out how to root on the new boot loader.
I think the best advice to anyone on US networks is to flash unbranded and go from there.

Get magisk.zip from internet , move to a sdcard insert sdcart to s7, Flash twrp for s7 then format data then click install magisk.zip reboot after finish and done.

I'm fairly certain that the only twrp for the s7 is a temporary one because there is no unlock for the bootloader, and even still the temp twrp is only compatible with the v4 bootloader and I am currently on v9.... that is unless I'm mistaken if I am then please someone correct me and point me in the right direction because I'd love to be running magisk on my s7 : )

Yes I'm using the modified Odin and all my previous attempts at flashing the eng boot files via Odin on the v8 bootloader have been successful, it wasn't until after the OTA that I started having issues.
And yes this is Qualcomm : )

Hmmm so it may be that loophole is now closed, what you need to think about is if you deffo need root? Or is it just nice to have. I'm sure a dev will get round it soon.

Okay I was completely unaware of TWRP being an option or the possibility of Magisk with a locked bootloader, now to clarify I'm running the latest unbranded US Region firmware for the US T-Mobile version of the Qualcomm Galaxy S7 "(TMB) G930UUEU9CSA3" that being said I have a few questions about how to specifically to proceed if you don't mind helping me?
First is the version of Odin available from the post provided above inst the modified version I've been required to use for all my previous flashing "Odin3_v3.13.1_3B_PatcheD" should I use this one or the version provided in the post above "Odin3_v3.13.1"?
My next question is that all the different versions and variants of TWRP available for my device the Galaxy S7 and the S7 Edge are either for Exynos Canada/International or Korea or the Chinese Qualcomm variant of each. Should I download and use the TWRP for the Chinese Qualcomm S7?
The sammobile link in the original post for "Android 8.0 Oreo Stock Rom" provides me with a list of the latest and up to date international versions of firmware for the Galaxy S7 Edge "SM-G935FD" I'm assuming I should just use the stock firmware image for my device "SM-G930U" instead?
The link for the no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 is dead but I don't think its needed because of something someone said in the original post about this method failing after latest security update "the one I'm on" https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78115895&postcount=18 he said he solved it easily with information and another flash able zip from this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77000849&postcount=47 and the zip from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76564735&postcount=37
All that being said I haven't attempted anything yet, I'll try the above method as I understand it later this evening and I'll post my results

Hello there, i deleted most of your post because i didn't want my post to be huge. So if i just give you some guidelines hopefully you can have a look around for the files you need.
1. For Qualcomm / snapdragon devices you must always use the patched version of Odin you already have. Now this version of Odin can be dangerous if you don't flash the correct firmware for your device because it ignores device mismatch and other safety measures the normal Odin checks for before flashing. Which brings me to.....
2. Anything for G935 will not work for G930 including TWRP, you must always use firmware, patches twrp which specifically says it for G930 Qualcomm/snapdragon devices.
3. The China/ Korea Qualcomm/snapdragon devices are exactly the same as the US devices, anything working on the China / Korea devices will work on the US device.
Now i know you want to root unbranded on V9 but as you are on the T Mobile network it may be easier to flash and root T Mobile Oreo for the time being until there is a workaround root for V9 unbranded.
All of the threads you linked to were for G935 devices and i've mentioned you can't use those patches BUT the process and step by step instructions you follow are the same for your device. So you can follow those guides as long as you are using the patches for your device.
There is a Snapdragon section on this forum so thats a good place to look.
I've had a quick look for this specific firmware and can't find anything about rooting the U9 version yet.....
I'm just checking this firmware G930UUEU9CSA3 your running did have either XAA or USC code next to it when you downloaded? I've noticed Verizon, AT&T and Sprint are using the same firmware VZN, ATT, XAS.

I'd be interested to know how this turned out if the device with V9 bootloader could be rooted with temp TWRP method.
Can i actually flash magisk on my 930u?
Is there any way to root my g930t ?
I'm on v9 bootloader, and i don't care about knox tripping.
Did developpers really failed to break the security of this little old device ? Or no one worked it ?

Would this info be applicable to edge models as well? Pretty sure our moderator has moved on as he is disgusted with samsungs persistance in blocking root with new bl versions. Im on an unlocked tmo s7 edge with the u firmware as well.

Yes by using 1st and #1623 post number it can be rooted easily. I already have done that on both G930P and G930U.

whats best way to flash unbranded SM-G715U1 to U for vzw?

So both my phone and vzw branded version phone are same model, and android 11 firmware is out for verizon and i already got it G715U1UEU7BUC3 ota 11.
It looks like this Is the latest Odin 3.141 software and verizon G715USQU7BUC1 firmware to get it done?
Also, do i need to do the full flash or can i get by with just one file that includes all the vzw bloatware in the userdata file. Is that true?
Once complete ive also read i need to do a factory reset and that it can be done while in DL mode. Is that true?
Finally, can i leave my sim in for this or should it be out or not matter?
