Problem after HEROLTE TWRP and THE GALAXY PROJECT ROM - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I am facing a problem. I was experimenting with THE GALAXY PROJECT rom. I turned on developer options and removed oem unlock.I installed twrp for hero lte and did format partition instead of wipe and installed the galaxy project rom. It worked fine but then I revereted to my stock firmware with ODIN. I noticed that I am not able to call any one. I thought i had installed England Firmware on Indian firmware as I faced that problem, so I downloaded the indian firmware again but again it was working on england firmware. I can say this because it was using upday instead of samsung briefing. I thought its a wrong rom again and to atleast make calls installed herolte rom. Same problem. Call ends immediately. My sim works fine in another phone. Any other sim stops calling in my phone.
Can any one suggest a solution of what might have happened.
I just booted into recovery and it mentions there herolte recovery.
Any solution.
Post Note - Rom were fine. Only calling and sending sms is not working. I can receive a text and can use internet over LTE. System cannot read sim phone number in hardware diagnostic. I cannot open aditional setting in phone as it says that error reading sim card.

Reinstall original England rom using Odin. And then install twrp and again install TGP or any other OREO rom you like.
Don't forget to format data after installing tgp for the first time.
Also boot up and reboot once after clean flashing with Odin.
Then flash twrp.
P.S try flashing csc selection by tkkg it may help.
Also which rom are you using nougat or oreo?

I have used Oreo as well as nougat. Problem persists.
Only my current operator aim are not working and rest of the sim are working fine. Service center haa asked me to get motherboard changed.
I was installing indian rom. Now even samsung knox related apps are not working.
So basically you want me to install tgp again and twrp after that and again went back to stock after that.
Do you have any idea why this problem could have been causes. Can rooting mess with physical hardware of phone?

I want to go back to stock without twrp and my current network working. Its an indian version phone.

Okay then phone and SMS probably won't work, cause I guess the Indian version is still a nougat but the England one in oreo both your modem and firmware would have been updated and it's not possible to go back, so I suggest you stay with TGP for a while until official oreo arrives in India.
Or else don't use phone or messaging ?

Rom with Functioning Fingerprint scanner and data - International

Hi guys, I have a G900p on 4.4.2 rooted with Phils recovery. My goal with this phone was to be able and use data internationally once it was unlocked, data didnt work on stock software. So I flashed Shohat Rom v5 and that made my data work, but my fingerprint scanner was unusable. What rom can I flash into this phone to have functioning data and functioning fingerscanner. Please consider that I am in Mexico which is international and I need data.
Thank you
the newest stock rom now has international data working

Hi, I also have a G900p sprint S5 on 5.0 software - G900PVPU3B0G1, but it also picks up no data at all here internationally. It picks up signal calls and all, but no data and I cant find the way to downgrade it to 4.4.2 since every time I try with Odin it simply fails. I wouldnt want to upgrade it to that new version, since then I think it would be even harder to downgrade to 4.4.2? hope you can lend a hand and let me know.
Thanks

well you cant downgrade the bootloader to anything below OG1 if your on stock. but if you root it you can install any custom rom through the custom recovery you added when rooting.
including flashing a 4.4.2 rom as long as your rooted with custom recovery.
when you flash a rom in the custom recovery your only flashing the rom itself not the bootloader. so you can go back to whatever rom you want but it must be done through a custom recovery. so to break it down
even if you upgrade and it doesnt give you the data your looking for you can root and flash an old rom.
one old trick that used to reset the data was a dialer code ##SCRTN# (press those digits in the dialer pad) it resets the entire data profile for the phone . so good luck the rest should be in the forums
If I'm on OG1 and rooted I can flash back to 4.4.2 ? Do I need to flash modem and kernel from the older version I'm flashing ?

now the sim card works in other phones and when I remove it the device registers it is SIM CARD REMOVED but when I put it back in nothing happpens, and mobile networks settings is gone
*I started in stock 5.1.1 (MADE NANDROID BACKUP OF EVERYTHING INCLUDING EFS) and flashed twrp via odin > (everything still working)
*flashed XtreStoLite 2.4 (5.1.1) via twrp > (everything still working)
after several months
*flashed new 6.0.1 bootloader and modem via odin and tried to flash XtreStoLite 3.0 (6.0.1) via twrp > got stuck in bootloop...
*used smart switch to go back to stock 6.0.1> Everthing was OK until about a month later the phone suddenly restarted and doesn't recognize the sim card
* I tried factory reset
* I tried samsung but they gave it back saying I've tripped my knox flag
*I flashed 6.0.1 XtreStoLite bootloader, modem and TWRP again via odin
*I flashed XteStoLite 3.3.1 (6.0.1)
*I tried restoring from the first nandroid (stock 5.1.1 from the begining) and got stuck in bootloop again.
*reflashed XtreStoLite 3.3.1 (6.0.1) and tried restoring only the efs. still doesn't work.

I saw some threads talking about octoplus box but I still have my efs Backed up my and SN and IMEI still show up.
Please help me I am here I am willing to learn and search online. I've tried everything i've found online.
Hi.
Try to use Smart Switch > Software Update and Initialization to recover your firmware, hopefully you get your network back.
Tell me what happens, gl.
Sent from my SM-G920F using XDA-Developers mobile app
almost same thing on a long thread here, no solution so far:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/g920f-network-issues-t3291903
I am seriously considering it could be sim reader issue, or some cold solder somwhere on mbo.
My IMEI was also showing in settigs, but when dialed *#0011#, in stack 1, there was "IMEI NG", after write cert operation via octoplus, it says IMEI OK now, but NO SIM, and no mobile networks menu still.
Same like you SIM is detected when inserted or removed, and phone offers restart to access mobile networks, but after restart nothing changes, KNOX tripped by previous owner, phone was in three 3rd party repair shops, where they made even bigger mess than it was, when I brought it to them.
i had the same issue when i upgraded to mm so i sent to shop they had to downgrade it to 5.1.1 and use octobox to fix it
Thanks for replying Legend.
But even though I did the software Initialization in smart switch once before it is not working for me now.
I've tried twenty time while reinstalling and restarting the pc I even tried a different pc I get the same error message every time. "failed to run firmware upgrade unknown error occurred".
any other thing to try?
you could try to restore that backup you have, from when everything worked and then flash 5.1.1. bootloader and modem for that csc via odin before rebooting
According to Smart Switch with your sn it is ILO so you need 5.1.1 bootloader and modem from ILO 4 file fw package.
*I just managed to flash stock 6.0.1 via odin (even though It failed at hidden.img... it boots normally) still no sim card tough.
*I realized that maybe all of this happened because when I flashed stock via smart switch for the first time I didn't have my original s/n so I put one from the internet and it wasn't my region.
meaning I flashed stock of UK and it still worked for a month or so, so that's weird...
*Thank you brenner that is a good idea and I will try now
question how do I extract the bootloader and modem out of the fw? I just open the tar archive and take the boot.img and modem.bin files and flash them as is?
nvm found a guide

There are .tar-s which are single file, and 4 files, the ones with 4 files has separate bl/modem
btw, isnt sn written on back of the phone, along with IMEI?
OK, I've flashed the nandroid stock 5.1.1 (LMY47X.G920FXXU3COJ1) and its bootloader and modem from sammobile.. still doesn't work!!
How can this be? everthing is EXACTLY the way it was when it was working!
and no, my model at least doesn't have the S/N and IMEI written at the back, and I didn't keep the box
any other suggestion anyone?
*also there are so many post in subject if I ever find a solution I will make a guide.
-bump-
still no solution..
I've flashed back to current stock ILO...
Meanwhile looking for a lab with octoplus box, still would love solving this at home
At home or not, I would like to solve it too
Bought a second hand S6 the other day and was working perfectly fine until I carried out the update. Now on 6.0.1 and am getting the exact same problem, my SIM works in every other phone. Has anyone found a solution for this?
Not that I know of, except hw replacement, which cost as a used phone with 1+ years of warranty (6 months warranty on motherboard after replacement, on motherboard only)
But I am willing to donate to whoever finds a solution for it.
No i think your problem is a S/W problem, i have 2 G920F with this problem, one of them is 3 binary and another is 4 binary FW, now i work on it if i can solve this problem i told you here.

[ODIN] Stock Nougat Firmware [SM-G935T] S7 Edge to use it on 935v

Here is the link to the tmobile original thread
[ODIN] Stock Nougat Firmware [SM-G935T] S7 Edge
Instuctions provided by jrkruse (original post)
1. You need to be on Verizon Beta Nougat 2
2. In developer options turn on OEM unlock
3. Reboot to download mode
4. Load the files you downloaded in the corresponding slots in odin BL,AP CP, CSC the files are labeled this way
you dont use the G935TUVU4BQB1_Boot_Recovery_Image.tar.md5 until later
5. Install with odin the phone will reboot to recovery to finish the csc install
6. If the csc install in recovery fails reboot to bootloader in stock recovery
7. In odin reflash the CSC file in the CSC slot in odin. The phone will reboot to recovery again and install the csc files
8. Once the phone is done installing and wiping in recovery try and catch the phone as it reboots and reboot back to
download mode (PWR+Home+Vol Down )
9. Use odin Install G935TUVU4BQB1_Boot_Recovery_Image.tar.md5 in the AP slot
10. Let phone reboot and go through setup
11. During Setup you may have trouble typing info in the setup boxes the keyboard has some bugs in setup. I recommend skipping
adding any accounts and do it after your through setup. Or use the alternative method to find your google account
12. Once through setup download 4G LTE Switch and use to Change Network to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL)
13. I recommend downloading Package Disabler Pro (It Works now) and disable all Tmobile Apps
I found samsung pay wasnt working I found that the tmb bootloaders and persist.img needed to also be flashed I made a new odin flashable package and install instructions. All seems to work now except of course volte and wifi calling.
Explanation why you need to be on nougat beta 2
Download:
TMOBILE_NOUGAT_VZW.ZIP
ODIN v3.12.3.zip
Possible Issues and solutions :
Q: after flashing the bootloaders and persist.img, it broke all data and calls and texts again.
A: they need to be all flashed at same time. Maybe Wipe data and it might work
Q: The Google "email or phone" text input box still only accepts one letter and any extra letters overwrite the previous letter typed.
A: The samsung keyboard will work fine if you just goto settings on the keyboard to language and types and change to US english.
Q: So the question is..... this worth flashing or wait for vzw?
A: Other than no volte this definitely the best running Rom so far. It is much better than beta
Q: 13. I recommend downloading Package Disabler Pro (It Works now) and disable all Tmobile Apps
Care to share your list?
A: List of Tmo apps to disable
Q: Except MMS isn't working, for me anyways. VoLTE isn`t working.
A: I got volte working and video calling maybe this will help mms for you
Download App shortcut maker from playstore
Select all activities find IMS Settings and create shortcut
Open the ims settings from the created shortcut
Choose Ims service switch
Click on MMTEL switch
Click on RCS switch
Under MMTEL section I enabled all the options
Q: Cant get this thing to flash CSC...just keep getting the dm-verity error 0x02.
A: 1:Flash all 4 files in zip.
2:let reboot and see if you get dm verity error.
3:if you get the error than reboot to bootloader and reflash all 4 again.
4:after it reboots again it will say error.
5:reboot to bootloader and flash the csc again.
Q: in 4g lte switch, i dont see the option for lte/cdma auto. could this stuff be because csc didnt flash correctly?
A: if you have the verizon data icons you know the 4g lte then it flashed correctly. If you see data icons that ate not verizon then it didnt flash correctly.
When every one is starting over are you flashing a pit file when going pack to ph1. If not you need too.
P.S. All credits goes to jrkruze. :good:
You mentioned to install Nougat beta first before installing t mobile firmware. Is that necessary? Also, any link for Verizon apn?

Look at you apn settings and just copy it. I didn't mention about to install nougat beta, I mentioned that it was installed successfully on nougat beta and that you must be on latest bootloader.
Okay so I have T-Mobile Nougat installed on my device, and I've changed my VPN over to VZWINTERNET, and I can't seem to get anything working (calls or data).
I'll continue to toy around with things though.

The T-Mo one you posted. Odin with ap,bl,cp and csc selected.
After toying with tons of things on the Tmo firmware, I tried booting into Odin, and flashing the Verizon pi3 CSC. That gave me a bootloop. I then tried reflashing the entire Tmo Nougat with Odin, but replacing the CSC again with Verizons, same bootloop. So now my phone is being flashed back to the trusty U MM.
I can only assume now that running the Tmo firmware on VZW will require root to make CSC edits. But Verizon will release our own Nougat before we get root.
Now I guess it's just a race between Verizon releasing 7.0, and the G935U getting it.
$50 on Verizon.
Edit: After flashing the G935U firmware again, after the first boot I was greeted with a message saying "your device must update to use new features from your SIM card." And I booted to a weird all blue screen with a big SIM card on it. I've never seen anything like that. I'm not sure if the Tmo firmware messed with stuff, so I'm going to fully flash the G935V firmware, THEN reflash the G935U firmware, just in case the G935T firmware messed something up.
they also did something to disable all package disabler apps even if you go back to MM they dont work. They screwed us goood on this
so @spiderkr were you able to get it working or just going off of other reports?

Beta 2 Verizon Nougat
Unable to select network
Under "Network Operators" I selected Verizon Wireless, waited 5 minutes, and now got Unable to select network. Then, maybe a minute or so later, it says "Unable to connect. Try again later." Is there a way around this?

I noticed this too, thought I was going crazy lol. That was the only think keeping me from rooting, and considering how horrible root is on this phone, I'm going to Verizon tomorrow to get a Pixel.

My SM-G955FD cannot connect to any network.

Hello guys!
I have a SM-G955FD. Bought it two months ago and was working perfectly fine till 2 days ago when all of sudden it cannot connect or register on a network. I had 2 sims in it and neither could connect to any network. Instead, it displays this on the status bar instead of the usual bars.
The sim cards work perfectly fine with other phones. The device detects both sim cards.
I have to checked to see if it's an imei error but it is present and it is not blacklisted either.
I factory reset it and it didn't fix it. I reflashed the firmware and it didn't work either.
Also, I cannot dial *#*#4636#*#* either. It says mobile network is unavailable.
Any suggestions?
Weird, did you get this working?
Can you get to the diagnostic menu?

Not yet. Reflashed the firmware again with no results.
Yeah, I can to the menu. What should I do there?
Unknown imei status.
Hello,
This happened to me yesterday and yes I freaked out. It turns out in my case even after flashing other roms I was still having the same problem where sims were not being detected and imei was unknown status. My fix was reflashing baseband. I used latest baseband from the renovate ice website. Hope this may work for you.

G920F firmware issues

So, I bought a refurbished unlocked S6 the other day (SM-G920F). I didn't note down the original region on the original TouchWiz, but I do know that it was on 5.1.1. At this point the phone was completely normal. I went to install twrp, which went ok, but after installing twrp, the phone would no longer boot, even though I made no modifications to the stock rom. I then decided to format and install a newer TouchWiz room, which required I also install a "kernel". After installing the kernel, all x axis inputs were inverted and the phone still would not boot. I then decided just to download a France region stock rom for the G920F and flashed it via twrp, which was successful. But for some reason the x axis is still inverted and my imei is completely incorrect. I have tried to use the dialer code, but it does not work because of no network connection. I cannot connect to a cellular network because Android has the wrong imei number. I have also tried to use both kies and smart switch but my device will not show up. I also tried an older version of smart switch for the initialization feature, but it says that the g920f firmware is not supported. If anyone can help me try to at least get my s6 back to stock rom without these issues I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
