It seems to improve the lagginess of the exynos variant of a53 5g. I just updated it today. Will post for more updates.

theres a snapdragon variant, the one w 8/128 or 8/256
A536E/DS 8/128, it's Exynos.
Edit: No Dec OTA yet, AFR (Kenya) CSC, cant change CSC to something better, neither can i flash a different variant firmware either, even though people seem to have done it. No idea why.
there is a December update, check this https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-A536B/

Until I see proof of an actual A53 with a Snapdragon SoC I think you are mistaken.
Anyway, it seems there just a little improvement on the lagginess of the system, just a slight. But its tolerable.
Still hoping a working and stable rom would come by.

Cause Odin fails, whether patched one or not. Firmwares seem to differ in size, so that explains it, and i wont risk a PIT flash until someone confirms that it works.

Hello, I bought S7 in internet. It was sold to me as Verizon version (SM-G930V). Actual software (G930VVRU2APB5) means that it's Verizon version indeed, but IMEI check shows that it's Sprint version (SM-G930P)... So I have few questions about this situation:
1. Is it bad that box and phone says that it's Verizon but IMEI says that it's Sprint? What may it cause in future? Or maybe phone is not original? Download mode works and Antutu checked confirms that it's original...
2. I wanted to upgrade my soft but how to do that? Update function shows me error while downloading so I wanted to do it via Odin but again - which version should I download? The latest from Verizon or Sprint?...
3. I live in Europe - will this phone work in our network? I mean 4G etc
My 930P has been flashed with 930V, 930A, 930T1,and 930U firmware all snapdragons are universal in that they can be flashed with all other USA carriers firmware

Oh, that's right So how do you think, is there any difference between all firmwares for snapdragon. I'm wondering now which one should I download...

930U is unlocked and debloated firmware but gets updated less frequently. The rest is really up to you on which bloat you prefer. If you are wanting to root I'd suggest 930V
So i just dont know if im looking for the right stuff or what..
Id like a rootable ROM for debloat and performance reasons.
I have a Galaxy J7 SM-J727U..
Just got it from the store and i can find barely any info on this Model.
Does it have a different name? or just no development for this device?
Thank you
I've got the same phone, and I'm in the same situation. I've got 15 days to return it if I can't find a viable root option, but it seems decent for the price. I've gone through a lot of the steps for trying to root similar models, and in every case I simply can't flash anything with Odin. It gives the error "secure check failed". Everything I've looked into about this seems to point to the "OEM unlock" option under developer options, which this phone doesn't seem to have. I would also love to know if there's any potential for progress on this. I'm willing to put in some research and testing, and I'll let you know if I find anything anywhere else.
The U usually stands for UNLOCKED(as in any network/carrier)
Does not necessarily mean the bootloader is unlocked which is likely if the result is 'secure check fail'
What are the specs of this device and country of origin?
Anyone please say the exact CPU used in ths model. SM-J727U.

That's wrong, sorry. I saw one of the YouTubers Boost Mobile variant (J7 Perx) of SM-J727 with installed Snapdragon 625. I've sent this question to the Samsung support in Twitter, they've confirmed my suspicion of the Snapdragon-based US device. But I was unsure. And here I am completely sure of Snapdragon 625 inside J7 2017 US version.

It was my understanding he is in Ukraine, and there the j727u is the Exynos model, as is the US j727u. The j727p and t models use the snap dragon chips

Yes I am the Ukrainian resident, and her we can obtain the SM-J730F. This is a real Exynos 7870 device. But yours J727U might have a different one.
EDIT: One of the users said that there is indeed Samsung Exynos 7870 inside the unlocked model. Meh. From the wompshmack's post the Download Mode looks to be verifying the signatures.
I have a J7 that is SM-S727LT. I can't find anything on that either

Can I ask you to look for CPU model in your phone? CPU-Z should provide it.
Sorry.. it the phone is a J7 sky pro and the model is SM-S737TL. Sorry about that. The cpu is a 7870.

A bit offtopic, but there also is the SM-J727S model, which is the Samsung Wide 2 (or J7 for Souh Korea, sold by the SK Telecom carrier), there is TWRP for it. The CPU is also Exynos 7870.
Theoretically the same rootmethod can be used. Can anyone test?
ANYONE ROOT AND TWRP J727U ?? HELP.. i see no option to enable oem unlock also why.. got my htc rooted then if failed screen damage lines ect fault of too many drops i guess so got this galaxy thinking it will have a twrp ect as its a galaxy yet i find nothing, my luck..
also it was consumer wireless carrier, i cant find prepaid cards for this why ? annoying.. i can send a few to a paypal for help here.. tried odin flash twrp pop says fail.. adb commands the phone so can i flash twrp like that on command prompt.. i need twrp for j727U BUT CANT FIND IT lol
Is there anything for the SM-J727U?
Baseband version J727UUES3ARF1
Would it be possible to flash an SM-N970U US model phone snapdragon version with an international, Chinese, or other version firmware to get root and then overlay it with English fonts etc... just looking for a workaround for root?
That may work. But I wouldn't risk it. As some of the modem drivers maybe different
Would that really maybe work? I feel like someone would have thought of that already. But man, it's tempting to try.

Unfortunately the two models do not share the same CPU... So it would absolutely brick your phone.

Every site I checked said the sm-n9700 has the snapdragon 855, which is the same as the sm-970u and u1 have.

It would be nice if you provided a source for your claim, since I did so. For example, you could say: "I own the n9700, and it is exynos", or "I'm there engineer that designed the note 10, and the n9700 is exynos"
Someone who has the n9700 could check with cpu-z and settle this dispute.

But I think that site says sm-n9700 is snapdragon.
The Hong Kong Note 10 is a Snapdragon, one of the few international variants with bootloader unlock and snapdragon. Not sure if it would work, otherwise people would do it. Good luck if you try, but be careful.
I have n9700 and its Snapdragon

Hello, the answer to my question might sound obvious but I want to be 200% sure. If I get N9860 China model, can I flash Hong Kong firmware on it with Odin ? According to the files I found on Sammobile it seems ok but I need a confirmation : https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-note-20-ultra-5g/firmware/SM-N9860/TGY/
Thanks a lot

Yes you can without any issue but you have to backup your data or else you will lose your data. And also why would you like to change the firmware. Is there problem ?
Hi! Has anyone gotten the OneUI 5.0 beta on their N9860 N20 Ultra 5G? I'm on the TGY CSC and even tried using a VPN to switch to other Members regions and have had no luck so far.
No, it's not available yet. Checked this morning.

Well, that's the price you pay for performance! Snapdragon is awesome. if you find it too slow why not change the CSC to Korea or stateside ?

Yes, it is! As long the firmware is Snapdragon, not Exynos you will be fine I'm pretty sure all the info is here on XDA you will need to research it. it should be pretty straightforward as I've done it tons of times UK firmware changed to Germany CSC (Exynos) So i get quicker updates on my Note 9 & my Note 10+ 5G I haven't changed my Snapdragon Note 20 Ultra 5G as of yet been so busy i will change it soon as i would like to unlock all bands on my Note 20 Ultra 5G!

Yes, you can brick your phone. Because the US version only single sim and N9860 dual sim, different hardware and software.
