S7 SM-G930VL Firmware ? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I recently acquired a Samsung s7 trac phone ( SM-G930VL ) base band
is on G930VLUDU4CQH2 .
I've looked high and low for firmware, with no luck.
Instead I found posts of users flashing the SM-G930V (Verizon ) and some even stated SM-G930U ( Unlocked ) .
So my question is, If I absolutely cannot find tracphone firmware.
Should I use Verizon's or the " Unlocked " SM-G930U files ?
On sammobile I found
firmware for the Galaxy S7 SM-G930U with product code TFN from Tracfone

Thanks for any input

i would flash the 930U version as you wont have verizon bloat on it

Does it use the Exynos processor or Qualcomm? I've seen sites claiming both.

I have the SM-G930VL firmware. All 4 files zipped.

SM-G930V or SM-G930P ?

Hello, I bought S7 in internet. It was sold to me as Verizon version (SM-G930V). Actual software (G930VVRU2APB5) means that it's Verizon version indeed, but IMEI check shows that it's Sprint version (SM-G930P)... So I have few questions about this situation:
1. Is it bad that box and phone says that it's Verizon but IMEI says that it's Sprint? What may it cause in future? Or maybe phone is not original? Download mode works and Antutu checked confirms that it's original...
2. I wanted to upgrade my soft but how to do that? Update function shows me error while downloading so I wanted to do it via Odin but again - which version should I download? The latest from Verizon or Sprint?...
3. I live in Europe - will this phone work in our network? I mean 4G etc
My 930P has been flashed with 930V, 930A, 930T1,and 930U firmware all snapdragons are universal in that they can be flashed with all other USA carriers firmware

Oh, that's right So how do you think, is there any difference between all firmwares for snapdragon. I'm wondering now which one should I download...

930U is unlocked and debloated firmware but gets updated less frequently. The rest is really up to you on which bloat you prefer. If you are wanting to root I'd suggest 930V

Unlocked SM-G955U

Last year's S7/S7edge had a different model number for each carrier (G935A/T/V/P/R4), but this year they all seem to be using the 955U model with different CSCs for each carrier.
I noticed on SamMobile there's an unbranded firmware available for the G955U with the XAS CSC, what CSC is that? Generic?
The reason I ask this is that because these US variant phones get imported to Pakistan and some people buy them since they're cheaper than the officially sold G955F models here, so if a G955U gets imported here which for example was previously used on T-Mobile in the USA, if one flashes the XAS ROM, will it basically be an unbranded Snapdragon 835 S8+ or is removing the carriers CSC not possible?
All replies will be appreciated.
Cheers

The U version is locked and not able to root. It's used by all USA carriers and they probably made it locked down due to Samsung pay. At some point a root crack will surface but it probably won't be stable

I don't need root though.
Just the possibility of flashing an unbranded ROM with no bloat, something that won't be used with US carriers.

You cannot flash firmware without rooting on this device. That's my point. When you try flashing in Odin, nothing happens. That's why you cannot root or even flash things. Got it? You need root in this case.
I think we are after the same thing; xas is sprint from my understanding. xaa should be the "unlocked" carrier neutral you are looking for. There is a thread in the s8 forum where some people had success flashing parts of the Canadian firmware then refreshing parts of us firmware they had quasi obtained this but I have yet to try
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/rd-carrier-switch-root-snapdragon-t3597473
I read somewhere that only G955f models can change CSC firmware using Odin.
G955U models won't be able to... I could be wrong...
Then again, we won't really know until someone buys the U model and tries it out for themselves.

What did you find out?
What did you find out? I'll try it with mine but I need help. I am by no means a schooled veteran in the world of command lines and tech talk but I can follow direction. I've managed to unbrick a couple LGLS 675 and bypass frp (for myself) a couple hundred times. I'll post a screen shot of my about phone if you guys are interested.

im using a 955f (so could be different on your phone), but just turn the phone around, on mine the S/N stands printed on the bottom of the backside, you can slightly see it ->here<-
and also I'm really not sure about that, but i believe some Serial/IMEI/whatever-numbers do stand in download mode
EDIT: By what i've found google'in, on the 955U, just the IMEI is printed. Sorry

Galaxy S8+ XFINITY Unroot

I have a galaxy s8+ through xfinity like that title says and would like to unroot because of some issues but was wandering which stock firmware to download. I believe xfinity works through verizon towers so should I use verizons stock firmware? Its a G955U by the way.
Also seen this https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/carrier-switch-snapdragon-t3615680
Perhaps that would be best not sure thanks for any input and help.

This is specifically for ATT. If you're looking for the latest sprint firmware for your device, it would be G965USQU1ARBG containing SPR USERDATA.

Ok thanks. Wasn't sure if I could throw the SPR USER DATA in with this firmware
Can I flash this on my unlocked SM-G965U1? I use AT&T as my provider. Also, if I needed can I go back to stock? Thanks.
I have an ATT S9 plus (already unlocked with codes from Ebay). So this flash will make my ATT ver become the Unlocked ver? I need the hotspot feature of the unlock ver. I don't need Wifi calling or VOLTE from ATT ver because I have never use those.

No it won't... I've flashed the G965U AT&T firmware on to 5UI unlocked with AT&T user data and both the home csc and regular csc files, and none of the carrier specific software works. Furthermore, you will limited to only 4G speeds during phone calls on the 5UI, at least with a AT&T sim card. This is my biggest pet peeve with this phone.

I don't know what I may have done differently, but did exactly what you did and I have everything working. Flashed AT&T rb7/rbg and user data over stock u1 firmware after factory reset. Volte/wifi calling, lte during phone calls and video calling work for me. I'm att/att/xaa, knox wasn't tripped.
The only thing I have as a complaint is it doesn't fetch ota's. So I have been reseting and Odin-ing updates as they roll out.
Thanks op for the files

Hope you do not mind me asking but I am new to Galaxy devices. Nexus/Pixel was always my choice but after having a bug filled Pixel XL 2 I decided to give the S9+ a shot. Not familiar with how the firmware for them work so I thought to ask you since you look to be very helpful in this thread.
I have T-Mobile S9+ which was updated to latest March 1 security update. I would like to flash it to the unlocked firmware. Is this https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=182E00202C6211E89F15FA163EE8F90B the same unlock firmware you posted?
Would I be able to use WiFi Calling, HD Calling and all other features on T-Mobile with the unlocked firmware?
Thanks for the help!
