Hey y'all,
I've had this S7 Edge International version for a while, and I was wondering if there is any way to improve signal. My internet is slow when I'm not on WIFI, I notice that in certain areas it is good, and most areas is just 1 bar which is meh. Any way to change some settings on the phone to fix this?
what csc are using? I got a France 935 and xfe works OK on AT&T. I did read you don't want to use an AT&T csc as it would be for a snapdragon and mess up a exynos based phone. maybe try BTU

how do i check which CSC it is?
*#12580*369# in the dial section on the phone app it will list it. it's the 3 letters after G935F

it says UUB
I think that is a multi csc for Latin America. might look around xda about using a different open multi csc. also are u updated to latest firmware. maybe since it is an international grab one from UK that has an updated modem (cp) file.

How do I do this? and does it trip knox?
if you update to an official Samsung version Knox will not trip. look for entries about official Samsung firmware and Odin. I assume that this international s7 edge will not be back in it country of origin. if it was and on a network there you'd get updates. if it is in the United States on AT&T then no updates would be pushed to the phone since they would be for the snapdragon version.

I get updates, it's just software updates though, nothing AT&T pushes afaik.
I meant firmware updates from either Samsung or your carrier. if you use *#12580*369# the first two lines should end in BPHJ. That would be an updated firmware. what do the first two entries say

On your Galaxy note 2 keypad, then tap *#1234#. Then you will get your firmware info

No, because as far as i know csc from *#1234# don't show what csc your phone is using.
for example entering *#1234# on my note shows: N7100OXXALJ4 but csc is XEO <- and you get firmware update based on this csc.
To determine what csc is set, use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector or check kies (csc in brackets)
And if your phone is "open" french, csc should be XEF, and XEF update is available since 20 Dec.
I just plugged into KIES and tried OTA, DBT still hasn't received the update as of 10:30 AM on 24/12/12 +1 (Madrid, Spain). Lame ... PLEASE SAMSUNG! XMAS PRESENT!
Yep.
Samsung makes strange things regarding updates.
N7100XXDLL4 contains OXA multi CSC (BTU, CPW, DBT, ITV, XEF, XEO) and only XEF is released. I don't see any reason, why not to release remaining CSC. Samsung do really strange things.
Edit: only thing that i can think of is exynos exploit.
Merry Christmas Everyone

Chill... Seriously... That's not how to behave here, we won't stand for it.
Is there any way to just freeze the phone at the current OS version without accepting updates? OS updates have been the bane of my existence.
i got mine updated to OTA
XEF France international n7100
To be honest it still feels exactly the same lol, the notifcation toggles is bonus
I have a version of SM-N910C that is region unlocked/factory unlocked and not associated with any carrier. That is, the phone and firmware are not branded with any carrier logo and and has no carrier bloatware. The product code of my phone is SM-N910CZKEMTZ, which means region code MTZ is not associated with any country. The problem I ran into is that sammobile.com does not have the firmware for this version listed. The only place I can find the original firmware for it is over at samsung-updates.com and the download links they provided would take about 17 hours to download, unless you pay.
Does anyone know if there is another firmware for N910C (other than MTZ) that is NOT carrier branded? I actually tried the one listed as "unknown" from sammobile.com and it turned out to be for a carrier from Chile called Entel.
you can try the russian NK5 version from Sammobile, flashed it on my 910C and it works perfectly.. except for the IR but that is an issue with the phone itself
Is the Russian firmware branded by a carrier?

This is the link for Russion firmware, it isn't branded by any carrier . SAMMOBILE
I also have the N910CXXU1ANK5 and can confirm that it's bloat free. In my case I received the OTA few days back.

Thanks. I will give the Russian firmware a try. Some people claimed that N910CXXU1ANK5 fixed IR blaster issue.

You can use any EU firmware, branded or unbranded, interchangeably on an EU device. The only thing you may run in to is 4G not being white listed for your provider, or a Size error in ODIN.
Yes. TNL is T-Mobile Netherlands. It's PHN (Dutch Unbranded) with a few apps and logo's. However, if you try flashing it over the Polish version, you'll get a Size error and will need a PITfile.

Yes. TNL is T-Mobile Netherlands, which is a modified version of PHN, Dutch Unbranded. It's not T-Mobile USA.
Thanx for the responses guys.

So, just to clarify, I would be able to flash the N9005 TNL firmware over an N9005 XSI firmware?
And if I did flash the N9005XXUGBOD6_N9005TNLGBOD1_TNL firmware, would I be able to go back to the original N9005XXUGNJ2_N9005OJVGNH2_XSI firmware?

I said EU firmware on an EU device. I know Europe's starting to resemble the Middle East more and more every day, but last I checked the United Arab Emirates wasn't a part of Europe.
It might be possible, but I can't say for sure.

In general, no. You can't downgrade.
It can be done, but there's a lot more involved than just flashing back old firmware.
Hi. I bought s7 edge in Thailand.
I was trying to find its stock firmware to get my phone a new fresh start. So far, I only found a link to Singapore firmware.
Here is from my phone
free upload
I heard you can flash single Sim firmware into dual one, but I was just afraid and prefer original firmware (before I root it soon hahaha)
Any idea where I can find one for my Thailand model.

OLB covering Malaysia/Philippines/Singapore/Thailand/Vietnam. I believe your latest update is of February 2016
Download Phone INFO Samsung from playstore and look for the active CSC. It has got a country shown as well.
I have a FD version as well with XME (Malaysia) CSC. But from what I have researched, for Galaxy S7 Edge specifically, Samsung has been releasing OTA updates (three times; once a month since Feb) for OJV countries (Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Morocco, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia,South Africa, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey), XSG (united arab emirates) and EU countries (NEE=Netherland, DBT=Germany, LUX=Luxembourg so far)
I have decided to flash the DBT firmware as from the look of firmware updates trend, Galaxies with DBT receive the earliest and most frequent updates from Sammy. Everything is working fine. No Knox triggered. Not too sure about the warranty; i guess it doesn't matter that much since samsung only looks at whether your knox has been triggered.
Good luck
thank you
can I flash German firmware only PDA or i have to flash CSC and MODEM too?
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge: SM-G935F
Hello everyone,
So the reason I'm asking for guidance and not straight up trying what I found is because this is my only phone and I cannot risk or afford fixing it if things hit the fan like i'd do with a spare or an old phone.
In addition the region code attached to it, the code is carried by different carriers and countries in the Gulf Area, some of which received Android 8 and some haven't. However since my phone wasn't purchased from STA, saudi telecom, I don't believe it received the updates distributed to the country,. So currently my phone was bought from a distributor in Saudi Arabia, which usually carries codes from different gulf countries. That region apparently hasn't received updates since earlier this year.
I'd appreciate just simple guidance for this process to get it right.
However I do LIVE in the UK and I would like to flash my phone to a UK region, I'm unsure which code to use and what files I would need to place in Odin.
Phone info:
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge: SM-G935F, Unlocked (They usually require you to use a local sim card for a 5 minute call after which it's fully unlocked)
CSC: G935F0JV1DQIL
AP: G935FXXU1DQJ8
CP:G935FXXU1DQIL
Would it be possible to flash to UK BTU as they receive more frequent updates?
I don't know if this has any bearing but I'm using a Three sim card at the moment.. However I have used around 8 different sim cards/companies in this phone since i purchased it.
I would appreciate any advice on what files to place into Odin if I want to keep my data. (Or if I have to completely wipe it?) or shall I switch to another up-to-date OJV country like Emirates (UAE)?
Also i'm not sure what home_csc file is.
hope to hear from you guys soon.

good day
I purchased my device SM G935FD from Oman with CSC XSG (part of multiple CSC OJV middle east and some African countries). Even though I received OTA, I always install the full firmware upon officially released.
I upgraded my device from Android 7.0 to 8.0 using UK BTU firmware, the availability of which came first.
In short I downloaded the firmware from Updato (Sam Mobile slow and lagging) for the BTU firmware. Just to be sure you have to download the correct and appropriate firmware and also the latest Odin (Odin3v3.13.1) which was upgraded by Samsung to be utilized for Android 8.0 and higher versions.

Also, be sure to activate your Developers options and enable USB debugging and unlock OEM. Using Home_CSC will retain your user data while using CSC only will factory reset your device and start anew.
