Not possible. You can't flash anything other than A7160 firmware

So there is no way to flash the phone to another country's firmware? (such as SM-S9010 change to SM-901B)

Deleted....sorry I was on another thread and thinking confused. If you want to flash back to stock factory file give me a second see if I can find the tar file for you.
buhohitr said:
This is the original firmware and you must flash it using ODIN. This include rom/bootloader/modem/kernel (everything), it will also wipe your twrp recovery also. After flashed this it will bring your phone back to factory stock. If you're thinking something else don't flash it and just post what you want and people here can help.

yes thats what i am looking for the stock rom..but this link is way to small for that and also, I opened it up and it didnt have the tar file in there..Im assuming this link was like a firmware update instead...

OK, here is the full firmware, unzip then flash with ODIN. This included rom/bootloader/modem/kernel(everything). This will bring back to factory stock rom.

If you already have strong signal and no issue with data drop, then you don't need to upgrade, otherwise yes you could upgrade and possible it may cure your poor signal...hopefully. In my case, this new radio did nothing to my phone signal.

The one you had earlier. Check on firmware finder. Download the update.zip file.
Extract amd use it. Dload guide is given in my signature. Personally I have not used dload on oreo so cant be 100% sure but have used it more than 100 times on KK, LP, MM, and Nougat. But i saw a post mentioned this method for going back to stock on v10. Can give it a shot, no harm, dload doesn't break anything.

select the country youre looking for in the drop down. download samfirm or the frija tool to download it with (it literally takes 2 hours to download these without those tools) and flash it in Odin. And no, if you dont know where to get your files from and had to ask, then i seriously doubt that you can say that youre in the 1%

Failed Root Z flip 4 brick & recovery..now what

So long story short was trying to root went to sammobile they didn't have my vzw sm-f721u and I updated flip to 13 while prior. Bricked because I was high and forgot to do the Magick trick before flashing then had to take sammobiles f721u1 vzw 12 and flashed but still at 13 didn't downgrade , unbricked, tried Magick patch for sha256 fix but didn't work. No root. Sammobiles f721u1 is slower than my og f721u ..bvka which can only find for sale and shady at sammfrew.com

Get a fresh copy of firmware from here:
Firmware from SamFw
Or get it from the Frija Tool.
Get to Download mode and run Odin 3 on your PC (Download Samsung USB drivers in case it doesn't recognizes your device.)
Flash AP, BL, CSC, CP
Do not flash userdata
(Remember: Untick Auto Restart)

There's no firmware for free anywhere . Frija doesn't have sm f721u....bvka. and the new fw I have didn't downgrade my android when I flashed. Tried again and wouldn't root. Did Magick correctly. Think I have to wait.
Once you go 13 you can't downgrade

I'm going to try again with some new samfw files. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully it works. Still haven't found sm-f731usq.....bvka
That was the original firmware I had installed and have only seen it on an imposter sammfw site.
Going to do Magick and try again with and without patched Odin then will update
