G930f shows as G935f after flashing Superman Rom V3 - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Spent the weekend flashing Superman Rom trying to get CSC's etc right.
g930fxxu4esae is baseband
g930f kernel
but the build # is G935f (erg2)
and my phone Model number changed to G935f.
Is this how its supposed to be?
I've flashed this before, and maybe didn't notice. Will this affect how my rom works?
Does anyone know if superman rom uses the same build to flash G930f as the G935f ?

Usually roms are specific to the model number however I believe the 2 phones you wrote down share the same device tree

Interesting, I'm not familiar with the term Device Tree.
So regarding mobiles sharing the same device tree, does this mean complete rom, modem, bl etc, inter-compatibility?

G935F is the edge version of the G930F, it's the same device just a bigger screen and the developer decided to code it G935F. It will make no difference to how your G930F runs, all is good.
Yes most G935F will run on G930F but check the post actually says that before flash.

Hi
If you mean if you can flash a G930F /G935F ( Exynos) rom in a G930A ( AT&T Snapdragon) , the answer is no , not possible , different chipset

You can't flash a stock ROM for a different device, bootloader etc are wrong and it will fail (if you are lucky) if it flashed you'd brick your phone
Only way to flash a ROM for a different device would be if it was modded to be flashed in TWRP etc, with the bootloader/modem removed, or whatever was incompatible
As long as the two devices had identical hardware
For example, the G900F S5 and the G900T S5 are the same phones hardware wise, but you can't just flash a G900T stock to the G900F or vice versa, you need to mod them and remove BL and Modem first, then flash with custom recovery

The only stock ROMs you can flash with ODIN are the ones for your model S7
For example mine is the G930F, I can only flash G930F stock ROMs
If you go custom, you can flash whatever custom ROMs are available for that model S7

I've just told you, check which model it says in download mode, that is the model phone
If it is snapdragon, 100% it is not the G930F so no you can not flash International

Yes you need to flash stock for the G930V if you want Nougat stock (G930VVRU4BQC5)
I have no idea about your network compatibility

Your phone has been faked, it is a very common issue here on XDA
Everything can be faked apart from download mode
Label on the back, anything inside the firmware, sticker on the box, all can be faked
Download mode cannot be faked, your phone is G930V, end of story

MM or Nougat makes no difference, if you flash for G930V it will flash fine, no dm-verity, no kernel problems, it is the correct stock ROM for your model S7
The only thing I can not predict is your network compatibility
Anyway, whoever you bought the phone from lied to you and ripped you off, if you bought it as G930F, get a refund

Actually he told me this verizon version i bought as second hand it seems so good and new just by 250$ it works fine
We all know it is fake but i think it is good to have snapdragon and adreno 530 by this money, hope nougat compatible with these fake phones.

You're not understanding me, it is not a fake S7, it has been faked to look like a different model S7
It is a Samsung Galaxy S7 model G930V
They change the model number so it looks like International version G930F and other more popular models
The US models are bootloader locked so not very popular
That is the only thing faked with it
if you flash G930V firmware, it will be 100% genuine S7 G930V

Hey dear friend
I scare to do anything by myself so i gave it to programmer and he told me i will flash F model nougat and there will be no problem but after 24 hours he told me F and V roms he downloaded from sammobile fails during flash and he must install 4 file rom and take more money and he finally installed the G930V rom but i don't think so he did anything special maybe he just flashed a official rom from sam.
However my 4G internet speed is very down but rest of mobile performance is ok and nougat is much better.

G955FXXU1AQH3 unlocked, bloatware grabage problem.

Hey fella's, and ladies. I just got my G955F, bought inside of the US off of the same person I usually go through. Turns out It's a UK model that came with Vodafone bloatware and shows 4G instead of LTE (even though it IS LTE). Is there a US variant? And if so can I flash the phone with any G955F variant software using odin? So I guess I'm asking, what is the best, and purest firmware if I am in the US. I have T-Mobile and I'm in Cali. Thanks ahead. (Sorry, but I posted this in the S8 section originally, like a dumb-dumb)
Also, could I flash with G955U unlocked firmware?
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?exact=1&q=SM-G955F
Here you can download the US ROM and use Odin to flash - these are official ROM's so Knox will not be tripped
NO
You CANNOT flash a G955U rom to a G955F device
It will definately soft brick or even hard brick your device
You can flash this rom ( https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G955F/EUR/download/G955FXXU1AQH3/184528/ )
No bloatware, multilang and fast updates.

DON'T GIVE WRONG INFORMATION!!!
If you don't know what you talking about, then say nothing!
You CAN'T flash G955U FW to a G955F
Do you know the difference between the G955U & G955F?
If you did, than you would have known the answer!!!

He has a G955F phone with a UK ROM on it... he wants a US ROM so the link takes him to the US ROMS for a G995F phone
I didnt answer the last bit about the G955U as I only just saw that - and just to clarfiy the G955U is the Snapdragon version so no, a Exynos ROM will not work

Got it. Couldn't find any US firmware on that page. Part of my question about the US firmware, or multilang firmware comes from the fact that Walmart sells G955F's. I would imagine whatever firmware is on there would be what I would want. Just don't know what that is.
-Thanks for all the replies so far. If I can't figure out what firmware comes on the US Walmart G955F phone, I suppose I will go with the variant listed above.
-Also, will VoLTE work on the multilang rom? Or is there a rom that works with T-Mobile and VoLTE? And if anyone is wondering, I wanted to Exynos variant, that's why I didn't buy G955U.

Well, I went ahead and used this firmware. Really like it, no problems at all and its exactly what you said it would be (hopefully its got great support as well). Appreciate the direction. Thank you.
If anyone finds out what comes on the US released (Walmart) G955F, I would really like to know. I've been searching and searching, and can't seem to figure it out.

Hi guys, I've just got a G955F as an upgrade from Vodafone UK with lots of their bloatware. Can I flash any other firmware over it without tripping Knox or invalidating the warranty? I'm in the UK btw.

Question about Canada model (A530W) vs A530F

Hi,
I recently got the Canadian variant of this phone but I've noticed the model number is different than what all custom roms seem to be released for. I have managed to root and install TWRP successfully following a guide made for the A530F but I just wanted to verify if roms made for the A530F (specifically this one) will work for the A530W.
I've done a bit of research but I can't find any useful information. All I've found out is that the Canadian model contains a slightly older CPU (which I'm a little angry about but oh well).
Any answers or information would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

i have an a530w aswell but you cannot flash that specific rom because it is an official firmware and will brick your phone unless it's an a530f
but you can flash a rom that isnt official like AOSP and other roms that can be flashable from TWRP ONLY
just that at the moment there isnt any rom flashable from twrp yet...

Oh! That's actually really interesting. I'm going to have to try that myself because the lack of the data toggle has been really annoying. I don't get why we don't get it in the first place.

Flash J327U ROM on carrier-locked phone

Hi, I was wondering whether or not I could flash the J3 Emerge (J327U - Unlocked ROM which has Oreo) on J327P (Sprint/Boost variant). From what I know, the U version is the unlocked version so I'd expect the J327P to be able to handle it. Thanks

You could try it, some different sites say it has Exynos 7570 in which case it likely won't work. Also be careful because the Boost Mobile variant has SD425 but sprint has SD430, but both are still J327P.

That's something I thought about, in any case, I'm attempting to port LinageOS 15.1 to the J327P. I'm now trying to build a device tree.
