Where did you get your SHV-300S ? if you imported in then it should be automatically factory unlocked.. Also if you wanna remove the bloatware use this app Link2SD and by the way be carfeful what you remove as you can brick your device just make a full rom backup and save it some where before you proceed.....

Look.. I got my mobile from china,it showed on the model number that it was GT-I9505,it was already factory unlocked,i wanted to remove chinese bloatware by downloading another firmware,but when i got on the download mode,it showed korean language and showed that it was shv-e300s. then i had to download korean firmware because the mobile did not go past the samsung logo. after flashing,it was fine,but there are loads of korean bloatware,atleast 15
it is also factory locked,and there is the SK telecom boot animation that shows when restarting or shutting down,i would like to remove this also and replace it with the official samsung logo.
how to factory unlocked? i have rooted the phone already.

S7 Product Name

I'm a beginner trying to upgrade/flash a S7 from China to have access to Google apps, but with no success so far (Secure check fail: Boot). In Odin mode "Product Name SM-G930F" is shown, but in Settings->About device->Model number = SM-G9300. How can I determine which ROM to use?

Boot the phone into download mode (Volume Down & Home & Power)
Whatever model is shown there is the correct model, firmware has likely been faked to sell the phone as the G930F - very common

Thanks for the information. Then I can assume that it is a G930F which is shown as Product Name in Odin/Download mode and that it has been flashed with a G9300 firmware. It would then be safe to flash it with a G930F ROM.

If it says G930F in Download Mode then yep you need to flash a G930F ROM, not sure why anyone would flash a G9300 ROM to a G930F S7 though, it's usually always the other way around

Sorry, my mistake. It actually says "G930V" in Download Mode, but on the back cover of the phone it says "G930U" (fake phone?). It was loaded with G9300 firmware which would make sense for the Chinese market. I've flashed it with a Verizon stock ROM and it seems to work. Just wondering if there is any "cleaner" firmware (G930U?) with less bloatware and the possibility to change the language completely and to get rid of the "Sim card not from Verizon" notification? Without rooting...

Not a fake phone, just modded to look like a different model, you can flash the G930U firmware to the G930V iirc

Yea looks like it's been faked to look different, common with the G930V's.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/search/g930u/ those G930U firmwares should work, basically any snapdragon firmware would work on any snapdragon S7 I thought.

Question OTA updates failing and show ODIN MODE (SVB Fail)!

I have an UK Exynos S22+ And every ota update I try on this phone less than 900mb fails with ODIN MODE (SVB Fail)! Or just fails at 25%
I have tried to reflash clean and from the Odin mode screen to recover it multiple times and to make the error stop but it hasn't worked and every OTA update I attempt still fails.
After reaching 49% it goes back to 25% and fails after which it acts like it's rebooting and then shows the odin mode screen. Or it goes back to the old firmware after failing at 25% outright. It’s getting tiring now.
I also get random reboots on this phone not sure why but every so often the phone just crashes and then restarts.
Anyone have an idea of what I could do? I think giving it to samsung is the only way to get it fixed but what do I tell them about me flashing the phone through odin to recover it?

Yup, take it to Samsung to fix it. It shouldn't be crashing like that

Will they still take it under warranty if I tell them I recovered the phone by flashing through odin? Because the phone was effectively bricked otherwise.

I think they will. Get in contact with them, saying what is not working, and they will guide you through the process. No need to mention what you did before

I am flashing the whole 7gb firmware through odin. The problem I have is with updates via wifi. Those updates keep failing for me which forces me to flash the whole firmware every time to unbrick the phone.

Phone won't boot

So if I do the soft reset by holding volume down and power button it just restarts and comes to that brick download screen. It's all blue with a white arrow that says dont move away from target (something like that). If I continue to hold that in it just loops that cycle. if I manage to get it into recovery (its hard to time it with it immediately restarting) it will bring up the android guy and flash "error" under it and immediately restart. If I'm still holding in the recovery command buttons it continues that loop. It does show the Samsung screen at the very beginning. If I put it on a slower charge (say from a 12vdc car plug) it will show a black screen with red letters stating an error fail to read bota partition.
I am a complete noob with tech. So keep that in mind. I tried offering as much info as I can. I have some pics and a vid.

looks like failed update, vbmeta is older than boot. download stock ROM according to your region code (CSC) install usb drivers and flash from Odin3 in proper slots.

I am very noob. Is there much info on how to do this somewhere you can link me? I am very sure this did happen when the phone tried to update (I kept postponing it) while in my pocket during class.
Will it be able to install without boot up? From what I'm understanding at this point the usb just recognizes the phone as a battery. The thing I'm trying to do is recover my data. I could care less about the phone itself

This seems to be pretty common with Samsung updates. Throughout time. I've had a friend that manages a T-Mobile tell me that after an update on two of his phones it came up with a moisture detected in charging port error. I think he said a soft reset fixed those.
Downloading the csc patch just fixes the firmware and would keep my data intact?

I come from a xiaomi mi 9t pro so I am kind of a noob when it comes to new Samsung stuff.
To me it seems that Samy still makes its phones run slower with every update so I want to revert back and debloat it.
Also is there any other steps that I need to follow if I can flash it besides the :
Turn on USB debugging - Reboot into download mode - Connect cable - Select BL - Ap - CSC.... Corresponding files, In Odin - Start?
Any help would be appreciated.

As long as it's signed firmware and the significant digit is the same or higher than the bootloader version, you can flash it.

Thx a lot for your help.
I checked the bootloader number and everything went OK.
I took the original firmware from Sammobile and flashed it with Odin.
