The steps are to flash the unlocked S8+ firmware to your sprint device. The unlocked S8+ firmware has no bloat. You can always reinstall the sprint firmware back when you are returning your device (I think it's as easy as that)

They didnt have any steps there. If im not wrong i should download the latest firmware from sammobile and flash this too at the same time with odin?

I use updato.com these are the steps. Use the Odin provided from the Post.
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=01B5D91D8DDB11E7963AFA163EE8F90B
That is the most recent update. It's for the S8+ if you have the S8 I think it's Sm-g950u1. Not so sure. XAA is the unlocked firmware

No it's not... I'm sure you have to but unlocked firmware is AQH3 and for you to get to beta I'm sure you needed to move to the most recent update. It could work it could not. I'm sure the modified Odin will work but again could be wrong.

Honor 6x twrp Backup!!

Hello,
I need a Honor 6x (twrp) full stock rom backup, it's very important for me.
Who can help me, thank you.
Have you took in consideration to reflash your firmware? Anyway you have to post your phone model, without that an user can't provide a functional backup since that it could be for a wrong variant (AL10, BLN-L21, BLN-L22... ecc.)

I have the same problem as the OP, AT&T told me that having the phone carrier unlocked did not make a difference. They also said I needed a warranty replacement, I called bull, so I reached out to Samsung, they told me to go to Best Buy to get them to push the update. I dont have the time to sit there for hours. So I come to you guys.
If what you say is true then I just need to be a bit more patient. Or should I just go to Best Buy and let them fiddle with my phone?

[Firmware] Flashing a carrier-free firmware

Hello guys,
Long story short, I bought an S8 plus at the beginning of this year, carrier-unlocked it (it used to be on Vodafone Romania) and everything went good (I didn't root it because I didn't feel the need to do it) but the only issue is that I have stopped receiving any software updates (still on Android 8).
My question is, given the fact that my current firmware is the Vodafone carrier one and CNX(Vodafone Romania) CSC even though my phone got carrier-unlocked, will there be a problem if I flash a Romania carrier-free official firmware from sammobile?
I tried asking this in different threads but no answer so far.
Thanks!

if its the G9##F model, and the recovery is stock, you will still receive updates as planned from whatever firmware version you flashed and your IMEI. Also, i have seen many people with similar issues across several Sammy devices in the recent past and honestly, the best solution is to download the firmware yourself and force it on. It takes a grand total of like 20 min provided you have a decent internet connection. Get the Frija firmware download tool here and get whatever version you need in 1/10th the time it would take if downloading from sammobile.com/firmwares directly.
just d/l it yourself and flash it manually

not that this is at all really pertinent, but my fiancee was born and raised in Piatra Neamt, and ive visited her homeland on two separate occasions for 3 weeks each time. I freaking love Romania! Its gorgeous, the food is superb (mici is now one of my favorite things of all time). Its just a shame that its being run by what seems to be a bunch of crooks. Buna sera!!
side note, i run a S9 (G960u) and flashed the U1 firmware a while ago and just today got an OTA update. Just figured id let ya know since it literally just happened like an hour ago

I have a problem to upgrade the firmware s8 g950u tmb, because the firmware model listed on the cellphone is different from the one printed on the pcb and also recovery mode, on the recovery reads the g950u but the cellphone information shows g950f, I live in Indonesia how should I choose the firmware suitable for my s8, now the condition of the phone is still on Android 7.0 thank you.

you may have a phone that has been repaired then. the 950f firmware will not work on a 950u or any of its snapdragon brethren. If you are absolutely certain that youre running U firmware, then just stick with that and manually update with the HOME_CSC every once in a while.

yes, I believe this is the G960U firmware, if I pay attention to the serial number of this Firmarr as the G950U firmware which is changed by "U" to "F" AP G950FSQU2CRB9 CP G950FSQU2CRB9 CSC G950f0YN2BRB9

you may have a phone that has been repaired then. the 950f firmware will not work on a 950u or any of its snapdragon brethren. If you are absolutely certain that youre running U firmware, then just stick with that and manually update with the HOME_CSC every once
yes, I believe this is the G960U firmware, if I pay attention to the serial number of this Firmarr as the G950U firmware which is changed by "U" to "F" AP G950FSQU2CRB9 CP G950FSQU2CRB9 CSC G950f0YN2BRB9

the thing is tho, the U vs the F usually signifies the difference between a Snapdragon vs Exynos processor, which arent cross compatible when it comes to firmware

yes that's also what I think, but when connected to this PC detected snapcomagon qualcom, not exinos, then I wonder how this phone can display the F firmware version, is it possible to replace the csc because this phone is detected TGY

yes, you can easily flash CSC's, but you probably dont need to.
just flash this https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s8-us-unlocked/firmware/SM-G950U1/XAA/

the U variants are the carrier branded versions and have apps baked into the firmware that are not uninstallable and have their own respective CSC, the U1 variants are non branded, unlocked versions that arent encumbered by carrier crapware

the U1 versions should not have any carrier apps on them natively. I have heard of phones still having the old apps on them after a reflash tho. Do you need the t-mob app or no?
