<< Stock Firmware For Your Verizon Note 7 and Quick Guide>> - Verizon Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

Here is the newest available firmware for the Verizon Note 7 to flash with Odin. The flashing process is fairly simple. I will try to keep this updated as long as I own this device.
First make sure your PC is properly set up with the Samsung Drivers and ADB/Fastboot from here. After this is done proceed...
1) Download the latest firmware from the link below and then unzip the file.
2) Load the files located in the unzipped firmware folder that starts with BL using the BL button, AP using the AP button, CP using the CP button and finally the CSC using the CSC button in Odin and wait for them to verify. (See Screenshot Below)
3) After the files verify shut down your phone and restart it in download mode by pressing and holding down the volume down, home and power buttons until the phone boots to download mode. Then press the volume up and connect the phone to your PC.
4) Once you are connected and the firmware is loaded press the start button and wait for the process to finish. The phone will restart and then you should be running the latest firmware.
You can load either the HOME_CSC or the CSC_VZW file in the CSC slot. Home will not wipe data and CSC_VZW will.

Pardon my poor directions but here it is how I pull the firmware from SmartSwitch in a nutshell....
1: Open control panel and click on File Explorer Options and co to the View tab. Under Hidden Files and Folders change the option to Show hidden files, folders and drives then apply and close window.
2: Download SmartSwitch, install it and run the program.
3: Click on update to start the download.
4: Open your C: Drive and navigate to C:\Users\Rick\AppData\Local\Temp (replace Rick with your user name) and look for a file created today named tmp*.tmp. When your download in Smartswitch reaches about 70% or so a tmp*.tmp.zip will be created that's about 2 gb in size. That is the ota file you want to copy to your desktop. Copy it over and when it's done unplug yopur phone so it doesn't update. Then rename it to *.tmp to *.zip, unzip it and restart your computer to close SmartSwitch. Now you should have a folder with the latest OTA to flash with Odin. You need yo quickly copy the temp file before the phone reaches 100% and reboots into download mode. Don't worry if you miss it, just unplug your phone before it starts updating and start over. If you aren't quick enough and the phone starts updating in download mode you will have to wait until it's done ore you might soft brick your phone.

rom info
What exactly is this particular rom? Is is stock samung rom minus bloat? or verizon ota? And if it is ota, why not just let phone update itself?

No, It's basically the OTA but the full version instead of a patched one. It has all the bloat. I disable the OTA and I prefer to update the phone with Odin to get a clean install. Plus you can chose to wipe all data or not by flashing either the home_csc or the csc_vzw files. The home one won't wipe and the other will. I don't like taking updates when they first come out just in case it kills the battery performance or something else and then not being able to flash back to the previous version if Verizon chooses to make it non revertible.

Does it include the things that Verizon took away from us -- mainly, Device Maintenance?

No, it's stock firmware so if it isn't on the phone when you bought it isn't in the firmware.

This is essentially a factory reset guys. No new features just gets you back to stock. Extremely helpful if we ever get any form of unlock or root and this would basically undo all that.

Thanks for this and glad to see you again on here. I made the jump from the S7E to the Note. Quick question and I pretty much know the answer but am having a brain fart: if we have TMO firmware can we flash on the VZW model? I should know better, yes.

Good to see you here too. As much as I said I wasn't going to get the Note 7 I ended up with the spare cash to upgrade and did it. As for the firmware we can only flash the Verizon ones unless Samsung has another universal one like they do on the Edge.

That's what I thought as I was 99% sure. I am just annoyed VZW disabled some features like the Samsung Cloud which I was looking forward to and instead is promoting their VZW cloud app which is less robust. NP. I am really liking the Note and is slightly better than Edge though both are the best.

Well I decided to get the Note 7!! Glad to see some familiar faces here as well!!!
Cheers!!

No I haven't and probably won't for a while. I would like to wait until another update rolls out to make sure we can flash back. Besides my phone is running great the way it is.

It failed on odin 10 with home csc

[Root] CFAutoRoot For SM-T807T/SM-T807P + Firmwares

Note: I did not make any of these root methods. Credits of the people who confirmed/ported cfautoroot is at the end of this post. I got permission to post these root methods here as most of the discussion happened in the General thread. I am not responsible for any damages done to your device. This will trip knox as always and this root method is only for the TMobile and Sprint Tab S 10.5! You've been warned!
Root is now available for these devices! Hope you enjoy and hopefully this should get some development going!

Ripx88 confirmed T805 Cfautoroot works for SM-T807T, but you may have a broken recovery. He also confirmed that Twrp and Philz CWM for SM-T805 also works on the SM-T807T. Thanks to him!

How to install
Make sure that in settings>general>security reactivation lock is OFF
edan1979 said:
Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Download and unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)
- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe
- Click the PDA (AP in odin v3.x) button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5
- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked
- Click the Start button
- Wait for Android to boot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode and root your device. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install root and such, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, manually shutdown your device and boot with VolUp+Home+Power button to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.
New to Samsung? Unfamiliar with Odin? Think all the above is a hassle? Get used to it. It's very simple, and us Samsung folk use Odin (or Mobile ODIN ) for everything! It's so very very convenient once you get used to it. Notice the 30 second comment above? For experienced users, the entire process indeed takes only 30 seconds!
Flashing with Odin
1. Put your phone into download mode. To do this turn the phone off and then press volume down+home button+power button at the same time. You will then get a warning saying press up to continue and down to cancel, press volume up and you are now in download mode
2. Start Odin
3.At this point please make sure that ONLY TWO OPTIONS TICKED are "Auto Reboot" and "F.Reset Time" (otherwise you could end up with a very expensive paperweight)

4. If there was only one tar file when you extracted the firmware put it in the PDA section.This just means this file contains the PDA+PHONE+CSC all in one firmware
If there are three files they should have one of PDA/PHONE/CSC in their names look for this and put them in the corresponding section.
5. Plug your device into the computer, wait for the drivers to install and then wait for the ID:COM section to turn blue.
6.ONCE AGAIN CHECK YOU HAVE NOT TICKED RE-PARTITION OR PUT IN A PIT FILE
7.Press start and the flash will begin, once this has started do not remove the usb cable or turn of your computer or the device the phone will reboot once the flash has finished.

Post from main thread.
CF-Auto-Root is the root for "rooting beginners" and those who want to keep as close to stock as possible. CF-Root is meant to be used in combination with stock Samsung firmwares, and be the quickest and easiest way for your first root. In essence, it does nothing but install and enable SuperSU on your system, so apps can gain root access.
Donate
CF-Root and CF-Auto-Root have been available for many devices (over 50 different models !) and have clocked over 9 million downloads. This is not even counting custom ROMs that include CF-Root (non-Auto) kernels. Don't be a leech, buy me a beer (and use the "Thanks" button!). Imagine if every user had donated me $1...
What's installed
- SuperSU binary and APK
- Stock recovery (note that any other recovery you may have installed will be overwritten !)
What's the difference between CF-Auto-Root and CF-Root, and/or other root solutions ?
CF-Root (non-Auto) are manually built rooted kernels and/or flashables that usually provide more than "just root". CF-Auto-Root is built on an automated system that I am constantly improving that takes a stock recovery image and returns an automated rooting packages. These packages are designed to install and enable SuperSU on your device, so apps can gain root access, and nothing more.
The difference with many other rooting solutions is that those will often install a custom recovery for you (I am personally moving away from custom kernels and recoveries, for various reasons), while with CF-Auto-Root you will end up with a stock recovery again.
Not included - custom recovery
A custom recovery like CWM or TWRP is not included.
Not included - Triangle Away
Triangle Away can be used to reset the flash counter after installing CF-Root. The flash counter keeps track of how many custom firmwares you have flashed, as this voids warranty. (No idea what this about ? Read up on it, you will want to use this !)
Not included - adbd Insecure
As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)

Please let me know if it works smoothly. I'm still in the process of tweaking it and looking for bugs.
Anyone have the firmware for the T807P? I see the T807T is up there, but think us Sprint users would need the correct firmware correct or we can run the TMo variant and be fine? Just want to confirm. If that is all we need. I'll go ahead with the process right now.

Yeah, the WAN at the office is managed by ATT. Are they notorious for having issues with MEGA?
I'll try downloading again from home this evening - meant to do that last night, but it fell off my radar.

Att blocks mega because of the history of mega and copyright claims. Ill make another mirror with google drive.
For anyone having trouble with the T807P root please post information on what happened and I will try to troubleshoot it. It is suppose to be a quick and easy CFAutoRoot using ODIN. I will say that it doesn't work if you are trying to use Odin on a virtual machine. It will stop as it tries to upload the cache.img. There is something about virtual machines that blocks it or Odin just doesn't like.
Uploading Sprint firmware now Will also upload the boot.img amd recovery if a dev wants them.

Guide Odin Flash / Update firmware ODIN
You do not need to root or unroot the device to update the firmware.
Please ensure that KIES is closed and not running in the system tray!
0. Download and Install: Mod edit: Malicious links removed.
1. Just download the firmware version you want from this posts[/URL] and extract the .tar or .tar.md5 file in the archive and save it somewhere.
2. Reboot your phone to download mode. To get download mode shut down the device. After it shuts off completely simultaneously press the Down volume key+ Home button + press the power button .
You should see a warning asking you to press volume up if you want to continue or volume down to cancel, press volume up. You are now in download mode!
3. Start Odin 3.**[/URL]
If your ROM is a single .tar.md5 package click on the AP/PDA button and browse to the .tar or .tar.md5 file that you extracted in step 1 and select it.
If the package has more than one .tar archive then they will be labelled with PDA/Code, Phone/Modem and CSC. Just put them in the corresponding section of Odin like below
BL = Bootloader
AP = PDA (CODE)
CP = PHONE (MODEM)
CSC = CSC
4. DO NOT PUT .PIT FILE AND DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT TICK REPARTITION.
5. Connect the USB cable and wait for any required Mod edit: Malicious link removed. to install and the ID:COM section to turn blue like below.
6. Click start to flash.
7. Do not disconnect the cable or turn off the device once the flash has started, it will reboot when it finishes.
*Note PDA/AP/CSC/CO/MODEM/etc
PDA refers to the build version of the software/firmware
Phone refers to the baseband/modem version
CSC is the consumer software customisation and is specific to geographical region and carriers. It contains the software packages specific to that region, carrier branding and also APN settings for data connection, MMS etc for your service provider.
.PIT refers to the partition information table you only need it if you screw up your partition table or if the firmware specifically requires it because of a change in the partition table layout. It's very likely you may never have to use this.
If the package only contains one .tar archive then it will have everything, pda+phone+csc, in the one file.
If it has multiple .tar archive then:
The .tar with modem in the name is the phone/baseband bit of the package
.tar with csc/multi-csc in the name is the CSC bit of the package
.tar with code/PDA/AP in the name is the PDA/AP part of the firmware package

The 930FD dual SIM uses the same firmware as 930F single SIM. More discussion here (not a link to firmware). Did you try unrooting with SuperSU? Knox is already tripped by the way and that's irreversible.
Ok I was just making sure, what firmware would I use for an international phone being as I live in the USA.
Thanks
Apologize if this is a noob question (i searched) . I have a G930F in the U.S. with AT&T , Will any of these firmware versions improve cell reception etc? If I switch firmwares will it allow UK version of Samsung Pay?
As far as I know, if you flash your phone with another rom is because you have rooted the phone. If you have rooted the phone, then of course you have tripped Knox and therefore Samsung pay wont work, let alone android pay

Has anyone been able to download from the link? I was getting forwarded to panel-guide.ru and got EXE file instead of the firmware. I was suspicious and sure enough the EXE file got intercepted by MalwareBytes.

Apologize if this is a noob question (i searched) . I have a G930F in the U.S. with AT&T , Will any of these firmware versions improve cell reception etc? If I switch firmwares will it allow UK version of Samsung Pay?

Your first question, don't know. You'll have to experiment.
Your second question, if Samsung Pay comes to the UK in May as predicted, it will probably only work with select UK financial institutions.

As far as I know, if you flash your phone with another rom is because you have rooted the phone. If you have rooted the phone, then of course you have tripped Knox and therefore Samsung pay wont work, let alone android pay

Flashing ROMs and rooting are two different activities independent of each other. Flashing a ROM doesn't necessarily root the device. Flashing official Samsung firmwares don't root the device or trip Knox.

Flashing the G930U Firmware to the T-Mobile S7 AND Keep Wi-Fi Calling/VoLTE

This guide is meant to assist people in converting their S7 G930T to a G930U with Wi-Fi Calling/VoLTE. All files are hosted on Google Drive and there will be a stock firmware folder in case you would like to flash back for any reason. Let's begin.
Prerequisites:​
You must have the firmware version that ends in APK1, if unsure, check the build number
If you do not have it, please update your phone
Download the firmware files, drivers, and ODIN from the Google Drive link
Have a Windows based PC
Your Micro-USB cable
Backup your data, it will wipe the phone
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE BECOMES A BRICK OR LOSS OF DATA. If it does brick, I will do my best to help you. Everything is in my Google Drive because Sammobile does not have the needed T-Mobile firmware.​
Download:https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1xbKGqj7KwBSXFFRzdtTG1SdVE
Step 1: Driver Installation and Verification​After you have downloaded all files, run the S7Drivers.exe. This driver is straight from Samsung and was renamed due to keeping things a bit more simple. After you run through the setup, plug in your phone while it is still turned on, go to Device Manager on your PC, and verify the S7 is showing up under portable devices as "Samsung Galaxy S7" (look at the image below if unsure what it will look like). We need the drivers to make sure the phone will be detected in ODIN when we put it in download mode.

Step 2: Extracting and Running ODIN (Thanks Princecomsy)​Create a folder on the desktop named "ODIN". Extract the "Odin3+v3.12+(PrinceComsy).zip" to that location. After you have done so, run the "Odin PrinceComsy" application and make sure you see a screen like the one below. Do not close ODIN.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 3: Adding all the files to ODIN​Download all firmware files and make a folder on the desktop called "S7 Firmware". Make sure the all files there are 4 file in the folder that start with "AP, BL, CP, and CSC". Also, verify that the CP file says "CP_G930TUVUAPK1..." , this is the radio and we need the G930T radio to keep Wi-Fi Calling and VoLTE. Now go back to ODIN and click on the button labeled "BL" and it will bring up the file explorer window. Navigate to the "S7 Firmware" folder and select the BL file. Make sure you match all files with the with the button you clicked on, for example, match AP with an AP file. DO this for all EXCEPT the UMS button, we don't need that. Refer to pictures below for an example of the files. Adding the AP file will take a bit especially if you are using a hard drive.
View attachment 3994526
Step 4: Put the S7 in Download Mode​Turn off your phone completely. Now hold power + home + volume down until it brings up a screen that says "Warning". Press the volume up to continue and you will see a screen that says "Downloading... Do not turn off target" Now plug your phone into a USB port, USB 2.0 is preferred for compatibility. You will see a blue box come up in the top left corner of ODIN that says "COM(X)" (X represents a number, it doesn't matter what your number is).
Step 5: Flashing the Firmware​Now that all the files in ODIN are prepared and the phone is plugged in, we can begin flashing! Just press start and let ODIN do the work. It takes about 5 minutes to flash and another 5 minutes to boot. It takes a minute to get past the installing applications. It should fully boot and you will land on the normal setup screen.
If this tutorial helped you, please feel free to give thanks .
Feel free to tell me your experience and/or leave screenshots.

Stock Firmware will be added by 1/9/16

What is the point of this again? Converting to 930u? When 930t stock has volte and WiFi calling.
What's to gain just curious ?
It's still 6.0.1 not 7.0 nougat correct?

As far as I know the only point is you have a carrier bloatware-free ROM, but that's about it. Of course, we can uninstall or disable just about all of this anyway.

I found it made my S7 faster and much better on battery. I have gone from 10am to 11pm with 2.75Hr of SOT and I have 47% left, and yes it is 6.0.1 with the September patch.
I just got my G930P SIM unlocked today and I am looking to wipe any traces of Sprint from this phone since I'm now actively on T-Mobile.
I'm on an APK1 firmware currently, so can I follow this guide or would I need to take other steps to make this dream come true?
@Theandroidguy99 can you please upload newest G930U PL2 firmware? TIA!

Do you have any idea why some people could be losing their SIM unlock when flashing U? I keep seeing random reports popping up of that happening and it's a bit worrisome.
From what I understand, a SIM unlock should be independent of the firmware you're running, assuming it's a legit DSU and not one of those workaround unlocks you buy on eBay.

I assume the SIM unlock problem is arising due to people using the eBay work around. As long as you did it through your carrier you should be okay.

That was my line of thinking as well, but I guess we'll find out! I'm hoping I can flash back to stock G930P PK1 firmware if things go awry, and just ask for an unlock again...who knows if that will work, but let's hope it doesn't come to that.
Thank you for your help and for this guide! I'll give it a go later tonight.
I will not be releasing the PL2 firmware here due to the Nougat arrival that should be happening in the next few weeks. Once it is released and I can host it, I will update this guide.

Everything flashed without a hitch and I'm now rocking a Sprint-free, smooth as silk S7.

not sure to be honest, i originally had a tracfone s7 (SM-G930VL, comes factory unlocked per tracfone) that we flashed to the U firmware, just to test i have flashed all the major US firmware for the S7 and it never got locked again. am not sure why tho but i did know a guy with a sprint s7 that his device got locked after flashing a few roms.

Tab S2 8.0 (T710) Android N Firmware- link

Hello.
I have managed to get the update file for Android N for the T710 variant of the Tab S2. The version I'm linking is for the UK region.
Here is the mega.co.nz https://mega.nz/#!xAAFQDqa!rZSJEqdEjNZpK59xggKxVRKukLXNm2oi472I4Rx-JSs
Make sure the select all three files to flash: AP, BL and CSC.
As Dariusdd pointed out, the update clears all your user settings and files.
only t815 not got yet...
Thank a lot for sharing...much faster download ...
It worked fine, just a future warning for everybody who installs it: it will wipe your internal memory, move your Titanium Backup data to your SD card or PC (don't be like me).

I did it with AP only as well and it's working fine. Came from stock 6.0.1.
I flashed all 3 files, also I can't seem to find the mobile hotspot options you've told us about. Might be because you didn't flash the other 2 files or because it was a dirty flash?

First, you need to get Samsung USB Drivers from Here
then get odin from my link in the post, backup all your data because your internal sdcard will be wiped clean
power off your tablet, hold the home button, vol down and power it up, press vol up when asked to continue to Download Mode
Now, run Odin 3.12 and connect your device, you should see Added!! on the left side, extract the rom zip where you'll end up with 3 files (AP,BL,CSC), select the 3 files in their respective slots (AP will take some time) but when you're done, press start and wait for the tab to boot up
for rooting, download this twrp recovery: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862710032
and download Magisk v12 from here: http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
copy the magisk zip to your tab, power it off and again enter download mode, connect the tab and run odin, select options (2nd tab) and untick Auto Reboot, select the twrp in AP slot and click start
Once it says pass, hold down Power button and vol down to power off the tablet, but you'll have to quickly enter recovery mode by pressing the home and vol up button along with the power button.
Once in twrp, swipe to allow modifications, click install, browse to the magisk v12 zip file and install it, reboot to System and download magisk manager from play store.

Was just coming here to pust this. No 5GHz for NA, so we will need to hold out for a working copy. If you are intending to root it can be fixed, but I don't intend to.

There is already a T715 version which appeared even earlier yesterday. That one is for Italy, but it should be fine.
Anybody else having issues with their Samsung account after rooting the tablet? I can't seem to be able to connect anymore after rooting, also for other users of SD maid: do not clear anything, it seems that one of the app's options breaks auto brightness and auto rotation.

how did you root the tablet? supersu I presume, if yes then that's why it's breaking the brightness and wifi, root with magisk because i remember the note5 and s7 had the same issues when supersu wasn't updated and the ramdisk kept interfering with the drivers

I hoped that was the case, so I ended up clean flashing again and rooting with magisk last night, thinking that being a little newer it should work with Samsung's Android N.
I didn't have any issues with SuperSU either for several restarts, so I assumed it might've been because of SDmaid clearing the wrong stuff. Either way, I'll try backing up my /data before trying again, so that I won't have to reset the tablet for the 3rd time in case that was also related. LE: even after several reboots after clearing stuff with SD maid, I have yet to experience the difficulties I had while using SuperSU. Magisk is fine.
Also: I managed to make my Samsung account work properly now. I reset the "Samsung Account" application to its initial state (through SDmaid, but it might work with other stuff as well) and it let me log in properly.

Sprint has released Pie for S8 and S8+, flashing worked perfectly on my AT&T S8+

Hey guys I just got done flashing the G955USQU5DSC1 Android Pie Firmware that Sprint released for the S8/S8+ (and Note 8). The steps are below if you want to do it It's your risk and since we just had the first US carrier push the Pie update the others should be close behind but if you want it now this works perfectly. At least it did for me and for a few others I saw on reddit. I was able to do so without wiping my phone either, no data loss at all. Everything is working perfect, AT&T bootscreen, Wi-Fi calling, VOLTE etc.
Step 1: First off download and install the Samsung USB Drivers for Mobile Phones https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows if you don't have them installed already (reboot after installing them) Use "SamFirm" to download the Sprint Firmware (no throttled download speed like most sites etc) I used v0.3.6 https://bit.ly/2Gso6QQ
Step 2: Launch "SamFirm" (I set the Auto/Manual check box to Auto) and input your model number (Settings>About Phone) or SM-G950U for S8 and SM-G955U for S8+
Step 3: In the "Region" field of "SamFirm" application put in "SPR" for Sprint, and click "Check Update". When you're ready to download it should look like this (G-950U for S8 instead of S8+) When you click download it will ask where to save the Firmware, I just saved to my Downloads folder.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 4: Once the Firmware download and decryption process is complete you can close "SamFirm". Go to where you told the app to download the firmware, right click it and click extract. Now it's time to use ODIN. At this point if you just want to be extra safe I would use Samsung SmartSwitch app on your phone to create a backup of your phone either to your MicroSD card (easiest) or to your PC. This will backup App /w app data, home screen layout, settings, documents, music (not needed if on your SD card) etc. But I didn't loose any data or have a reset when I did this.
Step 5: Download and open ODIN, I used ODIN 3 v3.13.1. Do the usual of clicking BL/AP/CP etc. then point ODIN to that file of the Firmware that is inside the folder you extracted (ODIN will take a second to scan each file as you add it, just wait for it to finish). For CSC make sure you select CSC do NOT select HOME CSC. If you select HOME CSC it will wipe your data/reset your phone. Also do not select the USERDATA file. Leave USERDATA blank in ODIN (at least for AT&T and Verizon users who this guide is for).
Step 6: Boot your device into download mode. Power off your S8/S8+, then press power and hold power, volume down, and bixby button at the same time. You should very quickly get a blue screen, release the buttons. The screen will say press volume up to continue, do so. Now plug your S8/S8+ into your PC. ODIN should show a blue square under ID:COM like in the previous photo. If ODIN looks the same as my screen shot while you're in Download mode you're ready to go. Now just hit start and wait for the process to complete fully. When it dose finish your phone will reboot and ODIN will show a green square with the word "PASS".
It may take a bit longer than normal for your phone to boot this first time. Also the first time my S8+ rebooted I wound up in the recovery menu, but simply hit the power button since the first selected item is "reboot phone" and the power button is the select button. If you get some white text at the bottom saying its doing something just wait for it to finish and when you get the reboot option hit the power button. That's it. After that my S8+ booted up just fine (this boot may be a bit longer as well but only this time) and I was at the lock screen. All my apps still installed, settings the same etc etc. Just like getting the update OTA.
Ive got an unlocked ATT S8+ and appear to be running into an issue when I fill in the info and select auto.
SamFirm v0.3.6.0

You have to choose SPR for CSC code because ATT does not have a pie rom for SM-955u
I flashed it yesterday without any issues over the drl7 beta. Process took 15-20 mins but work like a champ after booting up!
Please read this instructions
Just finished flashing on galaxy s8 SM-G950u unlocked Verizon.it worked like a magic for me .BUT faced some issues like :
* after downloading firmware using samfrim error was crc not match please redownload file.
-Solution: download firmware without crc check option.
*after download and decryption. Trying to extract the downloaded file error msg ( file is corrupted)
-Solution :download 7zip software to your pc and right click on downloaded firmware file then choose check crc when finish right click again and choose 7zip > extract now you will see more then 4 files.
When finishing even if there is error just ignore and follow (Sean8102) guide
After flashing and your device restart you will see error message ..don't panic just do wipe cash and reboot u
Your device..now you can enjoy with android pie and give middle finger to verizon late updates

Theres no benefit, it's the 9.0 pie rom update. If u tried the beta versions, it's the same except some
bug fixes. The branded ROMs are all the same, they Just add their own bloatware and other BS but other than that snapdragon rom is the same but are different than exynos rom versions.
Perfect guide.
Thank you very much! I use your guide and was able to flash without wiping any of my data!
omg THANK YOU!
So im doing something wrong, or the files just wont work for my version.
I've placed my device into Downloading Mode with two methods, using adb and the volume down, Bixby, and power button. But for some reason it appears to fail while connecting. Thoughts?

I havent, but I am now. Also ran as Admin if it helps. Will edit when I know more.
EDIT: Appears I just am not getting lucky here. Unsure as to why this is happening, is there anything on my device I should enable/disable for this process?

Question about future Ota updates
I followed your guide successfully, will I continue to receive Ota updates as usual as they are released in the future?
Working good on Verizon ?

Yes, but if you're like me you'll end up installing it before the OTA goes out ever again
