[ROM] Custom Stock Samsung Conquer 4G FC17 Rooted With Tweaks

Since people continue to only download part 1, even though I've explained fully that you MUST download BOTH parts before extracting, I have now added this at the beginning of the post, so hopefully people will actually follow the directions properly. DOWNLOAD BOTH PARTS BEFORE EXTRACTING, IT WILL NOT EXTRACT PROPERLY ONLY DOWNLOADING ONE PART!!!
This is a custom stock ROM for the Samsung Conquer 4G that has many advantages over a completely stock image. It was developed by me, Brien Johnson of XHPCreations aka brienj.
The link to the files for the ROM are at the very end of this post, but I recommend you read the FULL post while downloading the files.
- Your phone will be rooted.
- The complete FC17 update that shouldn't nag you to update to FE16. (may help to delete the FE16 update in the cache if you already had it pushed to your phone)
- Clockword Mod Recovery for making easy backups and restores.
- Completely Deodexed and ZipAligned for better performance or being able to hack further.
- All bloatware removed, i.e. SprintID
- Stock Launcher replaced by ADWLauncher. (the stock Launcher could not be deodexed, but ADWLauncher is much better and more robust)
- Debuggable.
- Custom power menu that includes, reboot, reboot into recovery, and reboot into download. (Currently the reboot into download does not work, will try to get it to work if possible in the future)
- Custom battery icons that show the actual percentage of battery power left.
- ICS Fonts for better appearance of text in phone's menus.
- Memory and network tweaks for best performance and battery savings.
- Support for running scripts on boot in init.d folder. I've included one script to help sdcard performance, feel free to add any more that you want.
- Support for standard bootanimation.zip files.
Along with these tweaks I will give instructions on improving the network performance further and changing the boot sound, as well as give links to useful programs and hacks that can be added on this phone.
I suggest only using this ROM if you have not successfully applied the FE16 OTA Update to your phone. If you have a stock FE16 phone, it MAY still work however. I can not guarantee this ROM will work for you, and I am not liable for any damage to your phone if you try to install this ...
Here are the instructions to install the custom stock ROM on a Samsung Conquer 4G with the FC17 update. It is installed in two parts, the first is if you do not already have Clockwork Mod Recovery installed, in which case follow the Odin instructions. If you have installed the CWMR already from my instructions here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1610534 then go ahead and follow the CWMR instructions.
Odin installation instructions (Use if you do not have CWMR already installed):
To enter Download Mode on the phone, make sure the phone is turned off and plugged into the wall charging. You should also make sure the phone has a good charge on it. Then turn the phone on by pressing the volume down and camera button and holding them while pressing the power button for a few seconds.
Unzip all the files on your computer and follow these steps.
1) Enter download mode on the phone and plug it into your computer.
2) Open up the Odin program in Windows, run as administrator if on a version of Windows that has such a feature, such as Windows 7. Sorry, there is no Odin for Linux based systems that I know about.
3) Press the OPS button and select the SPH-D600_FC17_CWM_XHP1.ops file.
4) Press the PDA button and select the SPH-D600_FC17_CWM_XHP1.tar.md5 file.
5) Press the Start button, the images should install and the phone reboot.
Congrats, your phone now has my Custom FC17 ROM with a CWM Recovery.
CWMR installation instructions (Use if you have CWMR installed):
Unzip all the files on your computer and follow these steps.
1) Copy the clockworkmod folder and merge it with the folder already on your SD Card. If you do not already have that folder on the SD Card, you may not have CWMR already installed, or you've never made a backup before with it.
2) Boot into CWMR by holding the volume down button and the power button while pugged into the wall charger, or by using the adb command "reboot recovery".
3) Select the menu item "backup and restore".
4) Select the menu item "restore".
5) Select the restore named "SPH-D600_FC17_CWM_XHP1".
6) Select the menu item "reboot now".
Congrats, your phone now has my Custom FC17 ROM with a CWM Recovery.
Now that the phone has the custom ROM, here are some things you can add or do to further improve performance on the phone if you wish.
First of all I recommend installing AdFree, Terminal Emulator, Titanium Backup, and if you wish ScriptManager, which can all be found on the Google Play Store. I can help you find them if needed.
For better 3G follow these steps (enter commands into Terminal Emulator or use the adb shell):
Type this command: getprop ril.MSL
It should show your MSL. Write it down.
Open the dialer and dial ##3282##
Enter your MSL
Click on "Others"
Click on "Multimedia"
Change the settings as follows:
RTSP Proxy Address: 0.0.0.0
RTSP Proxy Port: 0
HTTPPD Proxy Address: 0.0.0.0
HTTPPD Proxy Port: 0
The stock settings are:
RTSP Proxy Address: rtsp.vog.sprintpcs.com
RTSP Proxy Port: 554
HTTPPD Proxy Address: pd.vog.sprintpcs.com
HTTPPD Proxy Port: 8085
Here is how to change the boot sound:
First of all get the "poweron.snd" file from the /system/etc/ folder. It is a raw sound file which can be opened in any audio editor, such as Cool Edit Pro.
Here are the settings to select when opening it up in Cool Edit Pro for example:
Sampling Rate: 441000
Channels: Stereo
Resolution: 16-bit
Data Formatted As: 16-bit Intel PCM
Offset Input Data By: 0
Now you can listen to the boot sound in the audio editor. You can change it to your liking and save it in the same format. Remember to keep it a RAW audio file with the settings above. Replace the "poweron.snd" file with your edited audio file, retaining the same filename.
To replace the boot animation, you can find the "bootanimation.zip" file in the /system/media/ folder. Replace it with a bootanimation file of your liking. I've included a custom bootanimation that was modified to match the custom boot logo I made. I made all of it from a popular bootanimation of which I can not remember where I found it. I am not taking any credit for the original bootanimation, I just modified it to say Samsung Conquer 4G at the top and to speed up and spin faster at the end. If anyone remembers the original creator, I will add a link to it.
A great cpu tuning program that works on the phone (although won't save settings on boot for some reason), is this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584508. From the screenshots below you can see that the phone will last almost 3 days without this program, although the other screenshot was using the program setting of PowerSave and after 20 1/2 hours it was still at 70%, but I also didn't use the phone, I just had it locked. However, when running in PowerSave mode, the phone will be very sluggish, so is only to use if you are just waiting for phone calls or just texting.
These are all the tweaks I have for now. I hope you enjoy the ROM.
I hate to bring this up, but if you like this ROM, please consider making a donation. I don't do this just for donations, I enjoy helping everyone out, but I was in a near fatal accident over two years ago and can no longer work. If you find yourself enjoying this ROM, please click on the Donate button under my name, I would really appreciate it. I can try to improve the ROM over time, but please remember that this ROM is strictly made for performance and battery life and to give you more control over your phone. I don't plan on doing any theming, and most people do ICS themes and such. Personally I hate the look of the ICS themes and the only thing I've taken from ICS, is the fonts, which I do like and look much better than the original. If you want some fancy theme, or mods like Beats Audio, I'd suggest looking for another ROM. If you want performance and longer battery life, I think you'll enjoy mine.
Take care and thank you for trying my ROM.
You must download BOTH of these files before you can extract them. After downloading them, put them both in the same folder, and open the part1.rar file up, and you can then extract the files properly. If you only download one of the two files, the files will be corrupted or not work:
Here is the link to the first file of the ROM - SPH-D600_FC17_CWM_XHP1.part1.rar
Here is the link to the second file of the ROM - SPH-D600_FC17_CWM_XHP1.part2.rar
I apologize for having to split it into two files, but I have a maximum of 200MB I can upload, as I don't have a premium account at MediaFire.

Dude, your awesome.
So glad to see this!

This is John Smith from Ting forums by the way.
Good job man. Gonna download asap.

Cool. I hope it works great for you.
You were able to install my other one, so you have CWMR already, right? If so, I recommend just updating that way as it's of course much easier.

Thanks for your hard work, looks great...

What do you think about "Mobile Odin" Would it also work for flashing this? for information sake atleast.

It probably would. Perhaps it uses the flash_image binary to flash the images properly, but I don't know for sure. You'd have to make sure you give it the correct names of the mtd partitions though, or it would know the correct names for them, but that's if it uses the flash_image binary. You can always flash these yourself with the flash_image binary using the mtd table I listed. If you have CWMR though, I'd just do it that way.
It doesn't list our phone in the compatible phones, which leads me to believe it only knows the partition tables for the phones listed. Perhaps if you gave them our partition table, they could make it work though.

You're welcome. Hard work is an understatement though. When I had my accident, my head was split wide open from being struck. As a result, I have serious brain damage, although I have retained most of the smarts I had before the accident, which helps. However, it takes me months to do something like this, whereas before it would have taken maybe a week or two at the most, heck, probably a couple of days to be honest. I can not concentrate, I have to do one thing at a time, and I always forget things, even something that happened a few minutes ago. This is why I can not even work, as I can not be in a competitive work environment. Heck, even posting a post will take me close to 5 or 10 minutes, from fixing all the transposed letters, double-printing of letters, grammar, etc. The first post of the thread took me about 3 hours to finish and completely type up. It may appear from my posts, that I am smart, which I don't want to brag, but I believe I am, but because of my TBI, it's not what it appears to be, as you only see the final result after all my editing. I used to hide my problem, but I am not ashamed to admit it any more.

Thanks man this is really fast. I did a test and left my phone locked and it started out at 64 than 2 hours later it was 61!! Really good battery life.

Came here from the Ting forums. I just had to remember my username I created way back when I still had an XV6800. Those were the days!
Anyway, I tried downloading part 2 a few times, and every time I extract the files, it tells me the md5 file is broken. Anyone else having this issue?

You have to have part 1 and part 2 in the same folder, then open part1. It is a two part rar file, so uses both files. By opening just the second file, it won't all be there. But both files contain the whole package, you just need to open part 1, as long as you have part 2 as well.
I had to split the rar file up because Mediafire only allows me to upload a maximum filesize of 200MB, since I don't have a premium account. I've updated this info right before the download links.

Well that's great to hear it works ok for you and yes, the battery life, even without the cpu tuner program is FAR better than original. At least it has been for me. I can run an intensive program with WiFi and the phone would still last close to 10 - 12 hours. That was the whole goal of my ROM, was for longer battery life, since it sucks when stock, and I think I succeeded at it.

Ok, thanks. I was just a little worried because part 1 extracted fine, and part 2 always gave me an error, giving me the part 2 md5 as a 0 byte file.
I've never rooted through android before, so I want to make sure I've got everything squared away before I begin.

Good to hear you are no longer ashamed, plus theres no reason to be. Especially since you can whip up great stuff like this. among other things youve done.
I havent flashed it yet, as I am backing up a lot of stuff, and trying to backup all the linux stuff I installed via opkg package manager using "BotBrew", which is getting a bit complicated. Plus I have to make a nand too beforehand.
So I should be able to get to it soon. Im excited.
But by the way, now that you have the Partitioning table layout mapped out, I wonder what we could do to further expand our internal memory/storage? I wonder if we could double partition our SD cards like some others do on other devices? They basically just format their SD with FAT32 in the first (which will be the extended internal), and the next being Ext4 for SD card storage. Seems like we should be able to do the same like anyone else, especially since you got that nice bit of info through your troubles, on the partitioning.
What do you think on this position?
Take care Brien.

I am "new" to doing all of this type of work. I used to strictly do game hacking/modding, not stuff to cheat, but to make the games better and more fun. Late last year I started getting into the Android systems and seeing what I could do. I'm sure if I looked into this stuff I could figure something out eventually, but not sure how long it would really take me. This seems like something that is similar between all phones, so maybe you should see what can be done already. If it's a phone specific thing, then one of us will have to do the dirty work. I just don't know.

I've had that happen before. Here is the solution, but I'd try recopying it to your sdcard another time to make sure it was copied correctly - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114
Also, are you sure you downloaded BOTH of the rar files as I said in the OP, and it did not give you any errors when extracting the files?
Also, try renaming the name of the folder to only include alphanumeric symbols.

I got an error when extracting the files too. I extracted both the files to the same folder so I don't know what the problem is and I extracted the first part first and the the second. I don't know what it is

I got it to work and the Rom on my phone. Looks good! Good job. I would like to add some themes if anyone has some or knows how I could do it myself.

Sure, if that's what you want. Like I said in my original post, this ROM was made to be practical, not to be fancy. It does have the ICS fonts in it, which look a bit nicer though.

Asus The New PadFone Infinity (A86) aka PadFone Infinity 2 Thread

Hi,
Since I didn't find a thread for The New PadFone Infinity (A86) aka PadFone Infinity 2, decided to create this thread.
Hopefully this top device gets noticed by developers.

Any MOD for audio? Low handset speaker volume?
As you might noticed, the speaker volume (notifications, ringtones, etc.) of NPFI handset is pretty low even when all volume sliders are maxed out and audio wizard is set to "Music".
I have a rooted device and installed Alsa Mixer from Play Store and tweaked the parameter "RX7 Digital Volume" from within the app. Changed default value of 85 to 100 and was pleased to get a noticeably louder speaker volume. Problem is that the value resets almost instantly and volume level gets back to its default value. Probably because Alsa Mixer installs its own audio driver (alsa amixer) which uses a separate system for assigning values and there is a protection system in place by Asus I think.
I also played with parameters in files below (residing in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm) - tweaked the RX7, RX1, RX2, etc...
snd_soc_msm_Taiko
snd_soc_apq_Taiko_DB
snd_soc_msm_Taiko_CDP
snd_soc_msm_Taiko_Fluid
snd_soc_msm_Taiko_Liquid
saved and reboot, but it didn't make a difference. So anyone has any idea to share?
P. S. As far as I know the audio engine for NPFI is designed by Wave and is called MaxxAudio, Is it possible that it has something to do with that?

Thank you for making much needed forum.
Hopefully soon there will be gathered all the essentials.

There are some other places for PFs.

I must say I share your doubt. Possibly they are working on KitKat for NPFI, and ignoring the fix for now. Disappointing customer support management!

Its a shame that theres no developer support for the A86. Such a great device with no custom roms

KIT KAT Released for NPFI
Finally Asus released firmware update 11.2.5.12 for NPFI which updates its android version to 4.4.2
Download links are available at Support section of your device in Asus website.

Yes, I downloaded it and had mine updated, mine you all, 4.4.x has a known issue, that is all 3rd party apps cannot write to external SD, unless you root it and apply the fix, then either leave it as rooted or unroot it again.

Rooting Firmware 12.4.0.59 - Android 5.0.2 - A86
This post is copied from my own thread in padfoneclub.com so there is no case of stealing
If you want to copy this post on other forums please do not forget to give due credits to original poster.
Disclaimer! The procedure described below has the potential of rendering your phone useless if not followed properly. I DO NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY WHAT SO EVER, IF YOU BRICKED YOUR PHONE WHILE PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE. PROCEED AT OWN RISK!
This method is tested by downgrading firmware 12.4.0.59 to 11.2.5.26, which in turn needs a factory reset/ wipe data/ cache/ afterwards. Before anything else back up your important data (ie. contacts, messages, app data, etc) to some place safe outside your phone. ORIGINAL RECOVERY of your phone will be replaced by TWRP recovery
Preparation: (BEFORE ANYTHING REMOVE YOUR SIM CARD AND MICRO SD)
1. You must have USB debugging enabled, allow mock locations (developer options menu in settings)
2. You must have UNKNOWN SOURCES enabled (security menu in settings)
3. To be on the safe side I recommend you disable VERIFY APPS OVER USB, in developer options menu. You can re enable everything after the job is done.
4. You need to download firmware 11.2.5.26, and 12.4.0.59 according to your phone SKU and save it on your computer.
5. Download WINRAR or any archiving software which is able to modify zip files and install it on your computer.
6. Download unofficial TWRP ver 2.7.1.1 ONLY from this link, and save to your computer
7. Download BETA SUPER SU 2.49 from here, and save it to your computer.
8. If you are on firmware, 11.2.5.26, or 11.2.5.30 and rooted you are half way done, if not either you have to upgrade or downgrade depending on the firmware that now you are on. For example if you already upgraded to 12.4.0.59 you need to downgrade first and root, then proceed. There's a thread in padfoneclub which comprehensively discusses way to root Kit Kat firmware so I skip to just explaining downgrade procedure from 12.4.0.59.
9. To downgrade from 12.4.0.59 to 11.2.5.26, you do it in the usual way from recovery except you need to factory reset/wipe data/ wipe cache via recovery beforehand. REMEMBER TO REMOVE YOUR MICRO SD FIRST AND THEN WIPE OR YOU MAY LOSE YOUR DATA ON MICRO SD AS WELL! After wipe, reboot your phone and place the 11.2.5.26 zip in the root of your sd card by transferring downloaded zip from your PC.
10. Downgrade by choosing "apply update from sd card menu item" in recovery and selecting the zip file you just transferred to your phone. Remember to have at least 70% charge on your battery before downgrade or upgrade.
11. After the downgrade process completes your phone reboots, if it is stuck in ASUS logo for a long time (more than 10 min), switch off your phone by pressing and holding power button. Then reboot into recovery again do another factory reset / wipe data / wipe cache and reboot again. Now everything will be OK and your phone boots to initial KK setup. proceed until you are on the home screen. reboot your phone again.
12. make sure that items explained in step 1-3 are checked and unchecked accordingly.
13. Root your phone by your desired method.
NOW THE IMPORTANT STEPS TO UPGRADE TO A ROOTED ANDROID L 12.4.0.59
1. On your PC replace the "recovery.img" in the zip file for Firmware 12.4.0.59 with TWRP recovery that you just downloaded. Both have the same name and it is a simple case of drag and drop into zip file.
2. Now you have 3 important file:
- The modified 12.4.0.59
- The TWRP recovery you downloaded (recovery.img)
- The beta Super SU 2.49
Copy all 3 file to the root of your sd card in your phone.
3. Install "Terminal Emulator" from Play Store, open the terminal and give it root permissions if needed.
4. Type su
5. Then type
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery bs=4096; sync;
(you can copy paste to rule out any typing mistake)
6. After executing the command a number of bytes transfers and the results will display in terminal window. close the window and reboot into recovery as usual, except this time you have TWRP recovery instead of original Asus recovery.
7. Go to "Install" button and select the modified 12.4.0.59 from your sdcard, uncheck "zip file signature verification" then "add more zips" and select beta super su 2.49. zip as well, then swipe to confirm flash.
8. If everything goes according to plan your phone will be flashed with the new firmware and rooted at the same time.
9. Reboot and enjoy!
10. I tried this method on my phone and it all went smoothly, but in case you get errors, you have to figure it out yourself, I WONT BE ABLE TO HELP YOU! AGAIN BE CAUTIOUS, FOLLOW STEPS EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED AND PROCEED AT OWN RISK.

Verizon Root Guide (Knox still good)

I take no credit other than compiling info and making a guide. All credit goes to http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4911585 (br3w3r, Chainfire and Princecomsy)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-...-root-t3410403
Also credits to Mastajeff for originally making the guide for T-Mobile.
First off download these files: http://d-h.st/PK3q
Extract them to whatever folder you want, there will be 5 files in there.
Folder named: "su" contains the SuperSU and thing needed to root the phone
ADB Setup EXE called: "adb-setup-1.4.3.exe" Needed to install ADB and the Drivers
Special patched Odin that skips the SHA 225 called: Odin PrinceComsy.exe (Mainly for AT&T)
.ini file named: "Odin3.ini"
Last, file, named: "Samsung_G935x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR", this is the engBoot for the phone.
NOTE: Some users have experienced endless boot loop; this seems to be caused by using a package disabler that disabled certain services.
If you used one and end up getting an endless boot loop try wiping the cache and factory reset the phone.
I suggest you backup your phone before doing this, just in case something happens.
Install ADB by running adb-setup-1.4.3.exe
Make sure to put your phone into downloading mode (Power off--- Hold Down arrow + Home + Power button)
Open up Odin and click AP and mount Samsung_G935x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR
Once restarted put the phone into USB debugging mode (Need Developer options for this)
To get developer mode, go to "About" then tap "build number" about 6 or 7 times
Go back to settings and you should now see developer options, turn on USB debugging
Now back on your PC, Move the folder named "su" into your ADB folder (Default Path: C:\adb)
Run CMD by either Win + R and typing cmd or from the control panel.
Once CMD is open type this
Code:
cd C:\adb\su
or whatever your path to your "su" folder.
After that type root.bat
Wait for the CMD to finish and then your phone should restart
Once your phone has finally restarted you will notice that SuperSU was installed and root should be working, download root checker to find out for yourself.
If your CMD just says starting Daemon and doesn't proceed any further than that, then you forgot to make sure USB debugging was turned on.
If everything went well you will see the CMD was able to push SuperSU.
You can now install Xposed via Flashfire. Unfortunately, TWRP does not work on this method, so, DO NOT TRY, there is a chance that you can Brick your phone from doing that.
NOTE: DO NOT UPDATE THE SU BINARY!

Thanks 2swizzle for mentioning this.
If you want to fix the lag/slowness download any CPU or Kernel Editor or changer.
This one works fine: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grarak.kerneladiutor&hl=en
To fix the lag
Open up the APP
Go into the CPU settings
Set CPU Governor to ondemand
Apply on boot
Thanks to orgulloso4202 I have found a way to fix the battery drain and help with Youtube and the CPU.
L Speed seems work fine and my battery no longer drains when using the recommended Profile.

Interesting. First Sammy I've seen that Knox is intact but Samsung Pay won't work.

Have been searching a bit after rooting mine, don't suppose anyone has word on how to or if you can install TWRP or Xposed?

Got Xposed with flashfire but sadly it left me in a boot loop on the verizon logo, think I need to start over.

If we can get the bootloader unlocked it will be fun times indeed!
Going to try this soon.
Don't care if my phone blows up, it's the 4th here in the U-S-A!
Besides my trusty Nexus 6 and even Note 5 are ready for duty!
Xposed would be nice, I do miss those features.
Layer support even just to change up the statusbar.
Themes have done a nice job to blackout the device.
Root, center clock and some battery icon customizations and I'm all set for sure.
Perhaps the horrid standby time will be fixed.
Because as of late this phone has lead to high frustration to the point where I want to see how good it skips across the lake! But when I think of how much I paid for it, well I keep it in my pocket!

TWRP doesnt work, but you can install Xposed from flashfire.

I haven't really installed it on my phone. I only know Xposed work due to the countless others that tried it; however, I don't see why those should not work.

Xposed is working fine and you guys need to install a kennel app and change the engboot settings to ondemand, that's why it lags and slow

If you try opening the app you will get a message saying: "Access denied. Unauthorized modifications have been made to your device."
I am guessing that the app has some other type of security that checks if phone has been modded.

Anyone tried to unroot? Does Samsung Pay work if you revert NB to stock?

{GUIDE} Flashing the SM-935U firmware onto your Verizon S7 Edge and Rooting

Alright here is a guide to installing the unlocked S7 Edge firmware onto your Verizon S7 edge. I will also be giving some tips on setting up specific parameters to get the best battery and performance towards the end of this guide. A list of credits for all the folks who actually discovered and wrote about all these topics will be at the end of the guide as well. All credit goes to those guys!!!!
I am not responsible for anything that occurs to your phone. Period. Use this Guide at your own risk.
Part 1: Installing the 935U firmware
WARNING: YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA ON YOUR PHONE (except SD card)! BACKUP EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU START THIS PROCESS.
Before you start, make sure you have the Samsung phone USB drivers installed. If you do not have them installed ODIN will not recognize your phone. Here is a link to the drivers installation package: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/c...G_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.45.00.exe
Note: I personally had success with this version of Odin: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6a2xg2frrin92o6/odin_3.12.3.rar?dl=0 (MD5 - 9C878DB69273148F01910D1CBCB1ABBD)
However another user couldn’t get it to work and used this version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hfe8zn2adnwdtuw/ODIN .zip?dl=0 (MD5 - 136E707B39C2E4CDC47820C68065CD5C)
How to install:
Step 1. Put your phone in download mode. You do this by having the phone off and pressing the power button, the home button, and the volume down button at the same time, holding them until the download screen comes up. Sometimes there will be a prompt that says press the home button to continue to download mode. In that case press the home button as well.
Step 2. Flash the 4 files in this zip (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588212152304771)(MD5 - BB4D013B3B6D7638484A4B0F56953BFA) to your phone using Odin, all 4 of them at the same time. Unzip the files into the folder that contains your ODIN installation, or a folder where they are easy to find. Open up ODIN and put the BL file in the BL slot, AP file in the AP slot, and so on. Then flash all 4 at once.
I have flashed the U firmware multiple times in experimentation and at one point the flash failed. I simply forced the phone to reboot into download mode (by the normal method listed above) and tried reflashing. It went through just fine. So don't panic, just retry.
Part 2: Rooting the U firmware
NOTE: This guide is mostly taken from an excellent guide already made by @Argyrus. The only reason I am posting it here is to keep the flow of the overall guide together.
First off download these files (https://www.dropbox.com/s/x4yymhbthn6nmqp/Root Files.zip?dl=0) and extract all the files to one main folder. Make sure all the files that are in the "SuperSU-v2.76-S7QC" folder are moved to the main folder.
- Folder named "SuperSU-v2.76-S7QC" contains the SuperSU and thing needed to root the phone
- ADB Setup EXE called "adb-setup-1.4.3.exe", needed to install ADB and the Drivers
- Special patched Odin that skips the SHA 225 called Odin PrinceComsy.exe (Mainly for AT&T) including an .ini file named "Odin3.ini"
- file named "Samsung_G935x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR", this is the engBoot for the phone that will allow rooting
NOTE: Some users have experienced endless boot loop; this seems to be caused by using a package disabler that disabled certain services. If you used one and end up getting an endless boot loop try wiping the cache and factory reset the phone.
1. Install ADB by running adb-setup-1.4.3.exe (select YES to all options, especially system wide ADB)
2. Make sure to put your phone into downloading mode (Power off--- Hold Down arrow + Home + Power button)
3. Open up Odin and click AP and mount Samsung_G935x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR, then flash it
4. Once restarted put the phone into USB debugging mode, if it is not already enabled (need Developer options for this)
4b. To get developer mode, go to "About" then tap "build number" about 6 or 7 times
4c. Go back to settings and you should now see developer options, turn on USB debugging
5. Now back on your PC, double click on the file called "root.bat" (it should be in the main folder with ALL the other files, aka no subfolders)
6. Wait for the CMD to finish and then your phone should restart
7. Once your phone has finally restarted you will notice that SuperSU was installed and root should be working, download root checker to find out for yourself.
Part 3: Implementing all the Verizon specific fixes (enable Verizon volte, fix wifi password saving issues, doze issues, cpu issues, VVM, etc.)
1. Download the Verizon s7 edge fix zips (there are two zips that will be flashed together in a certain order) (File 1 - http://dl.psouza4.com/android/S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip)(File 2 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591023225178488)
2. Use Flashfire (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.flash&hl=en) to flash both zips, keep the standard options that are already selected in Flashfire. Arrange the zips so that S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip is flashed first, and Verizon_VVM_Volte_Wifi_Calling_G935U_Fix.zip is flashed second. It will auto reboot after flashing both files.
3. Profit
Also it is always a good idea to change all the animation speeds to .5, which you can find under the developer options. This speeds up the phone visually, providing for a faster user experience.
Part 4: Setting up xposed and additional battery life saving tools (optional)
These are some steps that I have taken to see great battery life results. Feel free to try them out and see if they work for you.
1. Install xposed using Flashfire (only use the modified xposed zip below or else you will have serious issues)
Here is the modified xposed zip to flash through Flashfire (https://www.dropbox.com/s/67aujyog5...arm64-custom-build-by-wanam-20160709.zip?dl=0)
Note: It takes a while to boot after flashing this due to the cache rebuild. Do not panic, let it do its thing.
Also you will need to install the Xposed apk to be able to use Xposed: (https://www.dropbox.com/s/euqp5ofg32gjspj/XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk?dl=0)
2. Install Greenify (xposed module) and enable all the additional features (donate only), including aggressive doze. Add any apps that are running in the background that seem to be battery hogs and enable auto-hibernation.
I also went through the system files and removed or froze any Samsung files I did not want with Titanium. But that's just a personal preference of mine, I'm OCD about files I have enabled on my phone lol.
Note: By request I have posted screenshots of all the files I have frozen, as well as a screenshot of all the apps I have greenifyed. I decided to Greenify more apps than disable this time to see if I get the same battery life as disabling everything. Time will tell.
That's about it. Hopefully this is helpful to us Verizon users who are trying to comb through multiple forums trying to find all the pieces to the puzzle in regards to flashing and rooting the U firmware. I am simply putting everything into one guide, along with any additions which I learned from my personal experience flashing and rooting my S7E onto the U firmware.
If there is any questions or comments hit me up, i'd be happy to help anyway I can.
Cheers!

I've yet to go through the whole process, as I want to set aside some time to prepare everything, etc. But I was wondering whether you'd be willing to share a list of the packages you froze or removed with Titanium. I am also a minimalist when it comes to what files I keep around on any device. If you'd prefer to share via PM, that's fine too. I know those kinds of lists elicit a variety of reactions from a variety of users.

No worries! I leave aggressive doze off because I use Force Doze to control doze instead. It does a much better job than Greenify at dozing quickly, as long as you use xposed to manage it. Force Doze screws up auto rotate and auto brightness bad if you don't use xposed settings in it.

Hi, I need help with one of the step to root the phone. So i was able to flash the .tar file on the phone using the custom Odin but I couldn't flash SU on the phone. Whenever I tried to run the root.bat file the cmd return this:
C:\adb\super>adb wait-for-device
'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Please help!

Thanks again for this. So, If I have the actual unlocked phone which already has the U firmware, I can skip a few steps and just root, do the cpu fixes, etc., right? The only thing I don't like about this phone is lack of voicemail notifications since the U firmware is stripped of that function.
Or is it better for me to perform all of the steps knowing I can flash the full U firmware to get back to the original state if I have to?

How to root umidigi plus e

1. Extract drivers and install.
2. Extract flash tool to desktop.
3. Place your trwp.img wherever you like
4. Open program folder and run program.
5. Deselect the first check box, then check the recovery box.
6. Click on the highlighted section, and navigate to wherever you put the recovery image. Then click download.
7. To flash, shut off phone. Plug into computer, hold down power, and volume up. Listen for notification sound. Once done, unplug, and do not power on.
Note: You must boot into recovery after flashing, or twrp will get overwritten if you allow phone to boot. Recovery= vol+up. Once you boot into recovery, you must swipe to allow modification to your system. Enjoy.
Also, if your using windows 10 and having driver issues, check next post.
TWRP: http://community.umidigi.com/thread-2962-1-1.html

If your having driver issues, try this.
1. Hit Windows key + X, select device manager, keep window open.
2. Connect phone, via USB cable, and navigate to development options in your device. (Tap build #6x's )
3. Find MTP section and install every driver there, keep an eye in your task bar in your computer to know when driver are fully installed.
4. In devices manager, where you see, a exclamation click to install drivers, but choose the option to manually select, it should give you a drop list. Scroll until you see portable devices, and select.

COM port configuration for LG-Flashtool.
This setup is for LG devices, but UMIDIGI require these drivers. They may need reinstalling, so just follow the same steps as MTP, but look for port/com from the drop list.
1. Hit Windows key +X, and select device manager, keep window open.
2. You must boot into download mode. Phone must be connected. Power off, then hold power + up, and listen for notification sound and let drivers install.
3. In device manager, click LTP/COM3 and choose advanced option to change to COM41, save and exit.

Having problem with Titanium BackUp, not mounting external sdcard. Recently I decided to move the app to /system/priv-app. Now the app mounts properly. Any explorer app that gives you root access, will do the trick. Once you move, create a profile, if you have to re-root the application will detect your device from that point on, always choose to keep device's ID #, that's how Titanium identifies your device.

Xposed not working? I found a mod that will help xposed install properly. All mods are in folder.
There is no serious development for this device, so you have to tweak the hell out of this thing.
There are mods to tweak your CPU, sound. also try Substratum Theme engine, some, Lineage OS/CyanogenMod, themes have been ported over, good news for those of us who hate vanilla.
WARNING: If you try Substratum, stay away from the transparent and vanilla themes, they will break your system, if it's happened, don't panic, if you have a backup just boot into recovery and restore the system partition only. You will lose apps and settings changed after the backup, if you dont, then panic. You should always have a backup, then backup your back, and so on. Just go dark.

There is no serious development for this device, so you have to tweak the hell out of this thing.
There are mods to tweak your CPU, sound. also try Substratum Theme engine, some, Lineage OS/CyanogenMod, themes have been ported over, good news for those of us who hate vanilla.
WARNING: If you try Substratum, stay away from the transparent and vanilla themes, they will break your system, if it's happened, don't panic, if you have a backup just boot into recovery and restore the system partition only. You will lose apps and settings changed after the backup, if you dont, then panic. You should always have a backup, then backup your back, and so on. Just go dark.

Ok, I meant themes, that ran on Cyanogen. And Lineage was just me referring to the new name.

I haven't used GravityBox in a couple of years. I no longer use this device. I'm running AICP, and everything is pretty much baked in.

Try Substratum Theme Engine, some themes come with font.
