[INSTALLED] SM-G935U over SM-G935T Firmware? What's so good about Un - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

Hello XDA Family
I recently flashed G935U Firmware *4API3 over G935T *4APIA, last night to be precise and right off the bat I must say that INDEED IT IS AND FEELS FASTER THAN STOCK *4APIA. You can just UNINSTALL instead of DISABLING bloat apps.
But other than the debloated firmware, what can we get about this Unlocked version? What is so good about it? Why SM-G935U over SM-G935T Firmware?
Pros & cons? Would you go back to stock?
Running September patch.

I'm still on APG1. Do you think it's safe to flash the API3 U firmware over it without taking t-mobiles PIA OTA?

I believe you would get the whitepages and tethering functions back.

this was too good too be true everything works great except for two issues that i see so far the major issue i have is that cant receive any incoming text messages non at all ....and the second issue is not too major for me but it might be for other people there is no video calling icon in the dialer so im assuming that video calling is not working other than those two issues i hate that i have to flash back tmobile firmware but i need to be able to text and receive text i even tried other messaging apps like hangouts and facebook messenger and whatsapp dont work i even tried out allo just to make sure even reset APN setting and reconnected to other towers in my area it all seems hopeless any other ideas are very much welcomed.

No question is dumb my friend.
I downloaded the SM-G935U TMO ....the one for T-Mobile as there is an UNLOCKED version for every US Carrier.
I heard AT&T and T-Mobile are so far the best firmwares of them all.
Try downlading the SM-G935U(ending with *4API3*)
1. Make sure you use the LATEST ODIN VERSION (3.12.3)
2. Latest SAMSUNG USB DRIVERS (v15.61)

Make sure you do a backup of what yoh currenty have, flash the G935U Firmware with ALL THE 4 FILES IN THEIR SLOTS.
After that, make sure to boot into recovery mode menu, wipe cache + data...reboot.

If u had an iphone before u have to unlink ur phone number from imessage. Something like that happened to me that was not getting messages and that was the reason

Installed CSC as XAA variant, so far so good isnt laggy as tmo stock will report battery life after few days, text messages, data and calls are working fine.
Thank you OP

Maybe add the correct APN? for msg?

No data after flashing update to stock kit kat 4.4.2!

Have a D802 on three uk. Like others went down the route of rooting and flashing cm 11 on my device. All quite straight forward, never had a problem... decide to purchase an s5 so now need to sell my lg. Originally flashed a stock Rom through TWRP and now unable to receive data. Though it was a problem with the rom so I flashed LG firmware through update tool. And have three UK firmware on but same problem!! All toggles selected..data,3G, airplane mode on off, reboot. ..nothing. my 3 UK sim works fine on my s5 so not that. I can get signal fine but no data. Would really appreciate some help as I cannot understand what's the problem. Especially as I can get signal but no data and works fine in my s5 ?

I suspect you didn't do a FULL wipe before flashing....
Suggest you try that first as the APNs for 3UK may be corrupt.
You could try manually setting the APNs but honestly, the Factory Reset option and reflash is easier and fully effective.
The one thing I didn't try. Worked. Thanks very much.....wanna by an lg g2 haha. Cheers bud

Dr.Ketan Port for Note 4 (Marshmallow)

So Dr.Ketan's S7 Edge port works on note 4 according to some youtubers and some commenters using the fixes present. It can be seen here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lrPz-PXGFQ
But one problem that isn't stated in the video, but everyone in the comments has a problem with is SMS. Is there any way to fix SMS? How do people using other Dr.Ketan roms on Sprint phones get the SMS to work?
I've already created a thread for such a ROM before stating all the required instructions.
Needless to say, SMS fix is also available by @ricohz.
Here's the link to my thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/steps-to-install-dr-ketans-rom-g-t3379659
This thread seems pointless & might confuse the readers.
Would request you to take it down.
Thanks!

Yours works for marshmallow too?
The ROMs that require you to flash from Lollipop to Marshmallow don't really work for me and are not what I want. I just want a ROM that goes from marshmallow to marshmallow like in the video in the first post, the only problem with that ROM is the SMS not working which is what I'm here for. Ironically, you say my post is confusing but it seems like yours is also. You state in the first couple lines that it's for people "who are using Sprint's Note 4 (N910P) outside of US and are stuck with Sprint's ROM" which I'm not apart of, but you told me to still use it. That does not make sense... Also "For instance, I'm using the unlocked variant of N910P with a GSM carrier, so I was having problem in connecting to the Hot-Spot feature as all of my devices were stuck at "Obtaining IP Address" loop and eventually would never connect." is a WHOLE different problem that I'm having so please clarify this before you tell me that my post is irrelevant just because you made one first.
Edit: Also that data fix does not work for SMS, even people in the thread are saying that, is there another one that I'm not seeing?

I tried the Sprint M3 and M4 got bootloop. No success with the Dr Ketan M3 or M4 data fix either. I also tried nameless fix and the T-mo fix. None of them boot, if it boot, it gave sim error. The only one that work is the Verizon V2. It worked with M3, M4 and M5. I don't have an answer for you as to why on that one work for me but it does.

Actually it's pretty easy you just need to know what to flash once you get it right it's a piece of cake
I posted a fix for MO on the other tread if you want to give it a try hit me up and I'll show you the way

AT&T & T-mobile now have the same bootloader version

*I originally posted this in the AT&T S7 forums unintentionally so posting here as well*
For those of you curious about running the T-mobile firmware on the AT&T version of the edge, it is now possible since they are now using the same bootloader version.
I have an AT&T S7 edge (SM-935A) and recently switched to T-mobile as my carrier. I had to unlock it first so I used the service from unlockunit. It took almost a day for the code but I was then able to pop my T-mobile SIM and sure enough, it worked. Surprisingly, WIFI calling even worked!
At this point, I really wanted to switch to the 935U firmware as I heard it has great battery life as all the carrier bloat is removed. Unfortunately, just before I switched, the recent September update from AT&T raised the bootloader to v4. I learned after the fact you have to disable the update service as it eventually will force you to update. Now I was stuck with the damn AT&T firmware!
I wanted to flash the 935U firmware but the bootloader was still at v2 and T-mobile, so I thought, was at v3. It might be helpful to have a sticky on this forum with the current bootloader versions as it took some time for me to research the following:
AT&T - v4
T-mobile - v4
Verison - v4
Sprint - v2?
Universal - v2
Yes, you read that right, T-mobile just released a new firmware (PIA) which raised their bootloader to v4! You can grab it here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935T/
It's the one with the date of 2016-09-27. I used the prince odin version referenced in this thread for flashing as others failed and gave sha1 errors. http://forum.xda-developers.com/veri...g930v-t3411015
If you plan to do this please research how to flash with odin and remember to back everything up! Samsung Smart Switch is a great resource for this.
I've been running on the new T-mobile firmware for just a day but already like it better than AT&T's. I didn't even know AT&T disabled some features of the S7 edge that other carriers kept. Typical for the Deathstar. Can you sense my disdain for AT&T?
For example, with the T-mobile firmware, you can control Download booster (the ability to leverage wifi and LTE simultaneously!) This option was removed from the AT&T firmware. In addition, you can set a preference to WiFi calling. With the AT&T firmware, you have no control and it will only flip to WiFI when in a weak area. It just so happens where I live the AT&T signal is weak so I was always jumping back and forth between the two and it was frustrating not being able to control it. The only way to force WiFi calling is turn on airplane mode when in a fringe area and turn WiFI back on. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with that anymore.
I'm including some screenshots which show the current firmware running on my SM-935A.
Hopefully we'll see an update to the 935U bootloader to v4 which will allow a switch to that firmware.
Thanks for the info.

no sorry im not clear on what im asking lol. im on (U)firmware but i cant send mms and my ims is not registered. if i go back to (A)firmware everything works fine. so the question is first do you have an origianl att phone? and second if so when you flashed the u firm ware did your mms work or did you alter something to get mms working.
My question is if i remain on att and run the tmobile firmware will the wifi calling work?

I didnt do anything it work right out of the box. I am on the ATT variant of S7 edge and mms works fine. I havent rooted and will never root this phone. Only thing not working is VOLte, Wifi Calling, and visual voicemail. lve been a nexus user so im used no biggie on them. Have you alter anything? Using any other messaging apk?

oh ok you arent rooted thats the big missing link lol , im rooted on att variant but have u firmware. sorry thought you were rooted and on u firmware.
So, it sounds like you're saying we can use ATT WIFI Calling after flashing the G930T firmware? Is there anything you lose from G930T? HD Calling for example? Anything else?
Edit: I said 930 because I followed a link here from the 930 forums - I assume it would be the same for the 935, but I'd like to know how it worked on the 935 too.
What are the benefits with the TMOBILE firmware?

It has been written elsewhere that AT&T requires 1) proprietary code [read: ATT ROM] and 2) AT&T-branded phones (IMEI they recognize, also includes some non-ATT such as iPhone/HTC) for advanced calling features to work.
I would bet that VoLTE, WiFi calling, video calling, advanced messaging, etc. do not work with the T-Mo ROM.
On the other hand T-Mo uses more standard VoLTE protocols, etc., so phones like Nexus 6P, 5X, etc. work with VoLTE and WiFi calling just fine on T-Mo.
A bit of history: Even people who got ATT-branded Nexus 6 do not get VoLTE because Google later standardized the N6 ROM therefore without ATT's evil code (and bloat).
ATT has quickly surpassed VZ as the new Evil Empire.

Where did you find the solution, I've tried a couple different versions of odin and no luck. Also, should I be using the "CSC" or "HOME_CSC" in the CSC box?
EDIT: Also figured it out. search for "Verizon S7 / S7 Edge [Root Guide] SM-G930V SM-G935V [NO KNOX TRIP]" in xda to find the correct ODIN version for this.
and the correct file to use in the CSC field is "CSC" even though ODIN says to use the "HOME_CSC"
Do I need to enable OEM unlock?

Great guide but you should mention from where you got AT&T firmware for note 8. This firmware is not that easy to get.

It says still updating...but will do...I'm just not finished yet...that's why is says at the bottom to pm me and still adding thanks tomorrow...and samfirm will download the ATT files...also I did not host the ATT firmware as it is still directing to your link...if I host files I find them myself...you can also purchase a subscription to other VIP hosting sites and download the ATT firmware...I just haven't bit the bullet...and I have pointed several people to your same link....in various posts...in no way did I take credit for it...not to mention that you yourself have no mention of where you got it, unless you developed it yourself...lol....I will be hosting AT&T firmware that I get myself though...thanks for the pm...I appreciate it... I'll be sure to give you credit as "and others" in the guide...
Please if anyone feels that they should be mentioned...pm me...it takes a while to create a thread that is semi-professional and not just a single link...and I may leave things out unintentionally...a pm will allow for edits quietly and professionally...please enjoy and I do not require credit because all we are doing is sharing and contributing for the sake of enjoying our Note...

So has the experience been better using this rom over stock? Any improvement on battery life? Performance?
So I have a unlocked carrier Note 8. I flashed the AT&T firmware and still do not get Wi-Fi calling. VOLTE works but trying to setup Wi-Fi calling fails.

thanks man tried it this morning worked like a charm.
I been on the phone with AT&T trying to get my imei whitelisted. I told them it was an AT&T phone. Running stock AT&T software. If I am running this software all my updates coming from AT&T now?

Someone said to add fota to apn using shortcut master lite to get OTA from ATT if you don't get OTA updates normally...but yeah if all is stock and working cohesively you should get OTA from them. If you are on unlocked and you just flashed csc and USERDATA files you may still get from Samsung...you just got ATT to whitelist the imei...
Some of the unlocked updates have came from carriers...though (it's kind of odd I looked at where my SPR SM-N950U1 came from and it was the same server that the Sprint s8+ updates came from...then I went back to just XAA and checked for the XAA SM-N950U1 and it was a Samsung server...so you may be getting ATT no matter what once your imei is rightfully registered...
All firmwares for SM-N950U and SM-N950U1 are located at link in OP....for those looking for Firmware

Not sure, I haven't looked....
My zips include BL, AP, CP, CSC, HOME_CSC, and USERDATA...
This one is ATT...
It is compressed individually...and includes a note to use new Odin
So I just flashed the latest att firmware on my Verizon note 8 and just trying to get volte and wifi calling to work but no luck. I've read the combanation file is need to "carrier switch" but none of the combanation files seem like they go with the latest pie firmware? And help and or pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated
My Note 8 was purchased from ATT, then I unlocked it using a service, then I switched to T Mobile years later. When I switched to T Mobile, the firmware updated itself to T Mobile after I booted with a T Mobile SIM.
Now, I am trying to flash it to U1_XAA so that I can gift it to someone in China. However, after factory resets, even from the recovery menu, it fails almost immediately during flashing. Would you please guide me on how to get this flashed to U1_XAA? Or is it ok just to leave it the way it is (U_TMB) and send it out?
Thank you!
P.S. this is with Android Pie, since I got the update while I was still on ATT. I tried flashing with the patched Odin as well, same thing...

Don't forget to factory reset and clear the caches via Recovery after you flash.
Enjoy!
Can I flash this onto my G930A?
is it necessary to factory reset??? Something that I've always liked about samsung is that I update using Odin and the apps and confs still the same... but if I have to factory reset, then I will lost everything...

All Samsung's have multiple ways of backing up and restoring. All you have to do is back up using Samsung cloud and when you start your phone it will ask you if you want to restore your phone and then everything will automatically come back to your phone. Factory reset fixes boot loop and other issues

Yeah I went ahead and flashed it. Works fine, better signal than on the ATT software and all features work

Great, I also found my signal to be better as far as staying connected is concerned. At one point my data kept going out on the atnt firmware and I had to keep restarting the phone or mess with the Wi-Fi calling. I haven't had any problems since I flashed this and plus 8 is faster than 7 so I'm excited to not have to mess with this phone anymore and just leave it up to ota updates.

Which sim card do you have and which carrier provides the phone because then you might have to flash back to 7 and use your carriers official firmware or flash your carriers official 8 firmware.
I have a SM-G930U. I wasn't expecting this to work...and it did flawlessly. Another surprise I got was flashing this firmware fixed my dm-verity issues. Thanks a lot for this thread. It gave a new life to a phone gathering dust on a shelf.

OEM unlock is an option in Developer Options. Has that always been there?

It's there but it doesn't work. It's just a toggle button that would come with most Android builds for the phones that actually have unlocked bootloader.

If there was root before (there is), then I'm pretty sure it will soon be available for Oreo too. I don't see why there wouldn't be unless those individuals who created or found the engineering kernel for MM AND N, aren't around to help out again. If not, back to 6.0 it goes.
HI, Now I'm on a custom rom with Nougat. Sim's carrier is Orange(UE). If I flash this Official Oreo version the phone will become Locked, right? Any idea how to unlock it, no charges? Thanks!
Thanks for the upload. I was trying to see if SamMobile had this up yet but they did not have it up when I checked. I have the MetroPCS variant and it did have 8.0 available on SamMobile already. I am switching from MetroPCS to T-Mobile so this will be perfect to get my phone 100% ready.
