I have the same issue the phone is G950 F
Yep g950f
I have to double check about volte, but you will only get wifi calling if u provide att with a imei number from an att phone that has the capability.

My girlfriends S5 is done with since i bought her a S7.. Can the phone be unlocked at all to be used on other carriers or is it stuck on Virgin?
Well the sm g900p model number is the same as the sprint variant. Which can be used on a few other carriers such as t-mobile and att (3g only on att if i remember correctly). Not sure what baseband your phone has though.

Hello,
I got a good deal on a new sealed Verizon S7 edge, going to use on Cricket. The phone will be in my hands on Tuesday.
The question I have is can I just charge the phone and flash it right out of the box to 935U? Or do I have to turn it on and do anything to it?
Thanks for your time.
Just put that sucka in download mode and flash that u firmware
Many thanks for the reply that's what I was thinking.
Just wanted to be sure. Take Care.
I'm using a Verizon S7 Edge right now on Cricket with the 935U software. I don't have any issues.
Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk
Thanks for the information I saw a few posts about IMEI issues, hope I don't run into that. Not going to root just flash the 935U firmware. Did you have any issues with activation or IMEI? Hoping to just pop my sim in and go.

Nope. I just flashed the 935U software, rebooted the phone, popped in my sim card and the phone automatically restarted and download all of the APNs. I haven't rooted either.

That's great to hear ! I've been messing with electronics for years. First time flashing a phone, not worried about the process, just the activation. Very happy with Cricket, I don't mind my speed being capped, never bothered me, use WiFi 85% of the time.

No you have the 935v =Verizon stock firmware, the 935U is Samsung international firmware meaning it don't have a carrier like Verizon. ect.

I flashed the U firmware and then flashed the latest Tmobile, or at least it think its the latest (Baseband: G935TUVU4APIA), and all functions seem to be working properly, tested SMS, MMS, WIFI Calling, not too sure what other Tmobile functions also are related to the modem so let me know what else I should test.

Is att your carrier? If so is volte working for you? I loved the u firmware but lack of volte bothered me.
Volte seemed to have worked fine. Anytime I was on a call 4g LTE was workibg. No HD calling or WiFi calling.

ATT is not my carrier, I carrier unlocked the phone and have only used the phone with a Tmobile SIM. I flashed the U firmware and the Tmobile modem firmware on it and I have seen better reception then when I had the ATT firmware installed opposed to the U firmware with the Tmobile Modem. VOLTE is not stated on the signal but the quality is the same as VoLTE of course there would need to be testing done on my end to prove if it is indeed working as VoLTE. Any suggestions? Would love to contribute with this.
EDIT: Unless of course you were asking if VoLTE was working with ATT on the ufirmware and if this is just ATT specific and if it is the case then my post wouldn't have much addition to the thread.

Verizon is sim unlocked you can just put your sim in and go. If you want to get all the benefits of tmobile simple flash the latest tmobile firmware with odin then internet calling video calling and all that will work. Goto the tmobile thread to find the latest firmware.

So I have seen multiple people here on the forum claiming to do it or wanting to do it and I am a bit confused. I have an s7 edge on contract from ATT. Can I do this? If I flash T Mobile's firmware on this does this make my phone usable with a T Mobile sim?

Can you advise the procedure? I'm currently permanently locked to AT&T network and would like to use a carrier (SK Telecom - Korea).
Wouldn't you still need to SIM unlock your AT&T phone to use on T-mobile network? I don't think just flashing another carriers ROM will allow you to use their network. Am I Wrong in thinking this way?

I am confused. Can I not flash the phone with t mob firmware without unlocking? I thought this was just a software restriction and would have been removed by flashing a new firmware.

Flashing the phones firmware will not carrier unlock the device. That is tied to the IMEI. It will boot up the Tmobile software, but it still will only work on AT&T network.
Also in order to unlock the device from AT&T they will most likely bill you for the remaining value of the device as soon as you request an unlock code. You cannot take a phone from one carrier to another unless it is fully paid off.
I have an Unlocked AT&T S7 and I can put in a T-Mobile sim and it works. So why Flash T-Mobile onto an AT&T phone if its Unlocked??? My AT&T S7 is Paid for in Full.
My question is, if you do flash T-Mobile firmware on AT&T phone will you get OTA updates off of T-Mobile, like when Nougat comes out????? Also would you still have wifi calling and get all the LTE bands of a T-Mobile phone????

Yes. All the edge models have identical hardware. Their only differentiating factor is the firmware they run. I flashed the unlocked firmware onto my AT&T model and now get updates directly from Samsung. If you flash the T-mobile firmware on the AT&T device, all features will work and updates will come from T-Mobile. Same would work if you flash the AT&T firmware onto a T-Mobile variant. Or Verizon to Sprint, Sprint to AT&T, etc.

So you are saying this about S7 Edge, does this work the same for the AT&T S7 SM-G930A? Mine is not the Factory Unlocked model but I got the unlock code from AT&T. I thought the firmware came from the carrier and not Samsung on updates on a carrier branded phone???
So if I flash T-Mobile into my AT&T S7, I can also flash it back to AT&T firmware should I go back to AT&T???
Think you are talking about flashing firmware on your that is original for the Factory Unlocked version, think its SM-G930F

Well people on the S7 edge have flashed the tmo firmware on their AT&T models. Updates come from carrier on branded phones. So if you have an AT&T phone and flash another carriers firmware, it would only be branded by the physical logo on the back. It's like buying a Windows PC and installing Linux. The updates would come from Linux, not Windows, and vice versa. You could always go back to the AT&T firmware, just make sure that both firmwares you flash are on the same bootloader version.

But I have always read that OTA updates come from Carrier not from Samsung. Thanks for the info. Maybe AT&T will be out with Nougat by Spring after S8 are out for sale.

Updates do come from the carrier. However, if you flash a different carriers firmware you will start getting updates from the new carrier.
