Update to Oreo from Nougat - S7 T-Mobile? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

since tmobile and samsung are taking their sweet time to update the software, i was curious if there's a way to update 930T version phone myself? i see there's rom available to flash via odin for 930F, but is there a way to do it on the T-Mobile version 930T? thanks!

Nope. These are 2 different versions.

Yes you can, flash the latest tmobile firmware file via file odin. On the tmobile s7 forums are a lot of guides to show you this. Please note this will convert your us cellular s7 to a tmobile s7 (software wise)

Stock update Galaxy S8 SM-G950U ATT (Snapdragon version)

A friend brought me an S8-G950U Snapdragon version and I do not have the ability to get an att chip to update de firmware because I live in Argentina. I´m on G950USQUAQGL (August 1, 2017) and de software provider says ATT/ATT/ATT. Is there any way to update the firmware including Oreo?
I'm sorry but the more I read the more I get confused.

I don't see any ATT ROMs for the S8 SM-G950U listed in SamMobile. However, I do see ATT ROMs under SM-G950U1. But isn't the U1 the unlocked USA version of the S8?

Did you even find any ROMS for the S8 SM-G950U? I'm having the same issue with not seeing any AT&T options on SamMobile.
I'm facing same problem too. ATT does not release its stock firmwares quite often. However find below May,2018 patch wity Oreo. Waiting for such stock firmware for Pie.

Hi guys you can flash any firmware G950U from Sam mobile it work because these are multi csc.
Tested in my unlocked s8 G950U.
Sam Mobile seems to have disabled their free download option (possibly in maintenance). Anyone has a link the latest Pie stock with July 1 patch level (AT&T) and can share please?
I think the OP (and myself) looking for this one - https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...59?make=Samsung&model=SamsungG955U&gsi=x6lhdu
Edit:
1. Here is the Samsung Fan Club link to the latest (G950USQS6DSG4, as of 8/18) AT&T ROM (free fast download) - contains T-Mo User data, use the one from below

930a marshmallow update

Hello i had my unlocked s7 930a for 1.5 years now... it's getting slower so i want to update it... as i don't live in the states i dont get at&t official updates so i've been stuck in marsmallow...
My questions are...
do i have to update to nougat before updating it to oreo?
is there any detailed tutorial to update the phone?
i saw a few ones but i couldn't find those answers...
Go to the ATT forum and grab the 930U firmware and flash it. I'm on the latest 930U and it's way faster than ATT firmware

Galaxy s8 active update outside US

Hi all. I have currently bought Galaxy s8 active to use it in Europe - Poland. It is a sprint / tmobile U variant. I have checked with samfirmware and since it's on G892USQS5BSF2 version - I assume it's a sprint version. It is hard to determine as they are both coded G-892U. Anyways the phone works well but the security patch is from last year and it's still on android 8. There apparently is an update to Android 9 but the phone won't update via OTA. And so are the questions:
1. Since they both are the "U" versions - can I flash the tmobile android 9 rom on it? I am asking because it's being used in tmobile Poland network.
2. If not, can someone reassure me that it indeed is a sprint version and flashing the latest sprint rom will do no damage?
3. Any idea why the caller id and spam protection option is grayed out? Is this because of regional limitation?
Thank you

Samsung S10e not Receiving Updates (SM-G970U)

Hello guys,
I bought my brand-new Samsung S10e this year in early July and I havent received any update since the January 2020 security patch, which I assume was installed when the phone was manufactured. I was wondering if there's any issue with my firmware or anything. I have seen some recommendations for firmware flashing, I am a bit freaked out about it as I have never done it and I dont want to brick the phone. Additionally my phone is the US variant (Snapdragon) and New Zealand where I live has Exynos for the Default, further convincing me that the phone might have no compatible firmware for where I live to receive updates. I also read that it is not possible for Snapdragon to be rooted and so I was wondering if I could get comfirmation as to whether or not I could use custom ROMs. Any help, suggestions, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated, I am desperate for anything.
Phone model number: Galaxy S10e SM-G970U 128GB
Thanks in advance

Your best option is to download SamFirm 5.0 and download SM-G970U1 firmware XAA code. Youll get updates then. Search how to use SamFirm and tutorial how to flash with patched Odin.

Are you sure that I use the SM-G970U1 firmware and not the SM-G970U firmware, I just really don't want to screw it up, is there a link you could send so I'm not installing viruses? Thank you
