Weird, i was thinking that this is one of the Canadian versions avaliable for download http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/72507/N910W8VLU1DPE2_N910W8OYA1DPE2_BMC/
Also i forgot N910T it's not from north america.

This is ridiculous! T-mobile updated all of their scheduled MM updates, except Note 4s and Tab S2! Whats wrong with them!!! I'm soo mad...

This might have just came out after i posted this... but if it will work with your phone as long as the model match then no reason why you can't upgrade....

if you want to download it, just get samfirm and download it using that with model number as sm-n910w8 and either use TLS (Telus) or RWC for Region.
Set the option to decrypt automatically. You can use odin to flash.

Fwiw, it decrypts/ extracts as a .zip file, so won't flash in Odin. I assume it's a zip due to it being a downloadable update directly to the phone. Flash in TWRP or CWM?

Well...it is indeed from North America, as the USA is in North America. However, it is not the "North American" version.
Will it work in a N910T? Beats me.

Anyone else having problems with ALL other ROMs not booting up after upgrading to N910W8VLU1DPE2?

if you upgraded from 5.1.1 to 6.0 you have lost root more then likely.. you may need to wait for a new way to root 6.0..

No need to wait, the latest cf-auto-root from chainfire works fine on 6.0.

Actually the DPE2 firmware is posted as a zip, but once you unzip your download (which is over 2 GB in size, btw!) you will have a .tar.md5 file that you flash with Odin in the usual way.
As for the question of whether you actually _can_ flash the DPE2 firmware for the N910W8 on the N910T, at least one developer, Ovrdrive, who tried it on his N910T said it wouldn't boot, and I haven't seen any posts here from anyone saying they got it to work on a N910T. So - any brave soul who tried DPE2 on his N910T and made it work should post about his success here.

NO it will not work on the 910T. not through Odin anyways as the model number won't match. Sefrcoko is working on a flashable zip and deodexing but at the moment is having issues with deodexing so it may work through flashing in recovery with a MM kernel. We will have to wait and see

Not for me. I downloaded it using SamFirm (as mentioned earlier), and set to "Decrypt Automatically. It completed as a Zip file that would not unzip. Perhaps it was corrupt. ?

I've never used Samfirm. I was talking specifically about the zip files posted at sammobile (link for the N910W8 version in my previous post), which are intended to be unzipped to a .tar.md5 and flashed with Odin.

I assume that since you upgraded to MM, and T-Mobile has yet to ship MM, you have a N910W8 and you installed DPE2. It's the bootloader that came with DPE2 that is the problem. All the custom ROMs, even the MM port ones, are intended for the most recent T-Mobile bootloader, which is DOK2 Lollipop 5.1.1, or the most recent Canadian equivalent, COK3 Lollipop 5.1.1. When and if T-Mobile finally, FINALLY ships their version of MM, the custom ROMs here will probably be based on that bootloader instead. T-Mo and Samsung should be ashamed about how long MM is taking. Verizon has it. EVERY Canadian carrier has it. Looks like T-Mo is shooting for the distinction of being the very last carrier anywhere to ship MM.
Anyway, until then you need to use Odin to downgrade to COK3 (or, at least the COK3 bootloader) before any currently available custom ROMs will boot.

Rooting PJ2 and Switching to T-Mobile

Currently have a SM-G930P, 6.0.1 October 1, 2016 patch, baseband G930PVPS4APJ2. Is this version rootable?
My ultimate goal is to root and then flash a T-Mobile based rom (SM-G930T) since I use T-Mobile with this phone.
Anyone know if this is possible and have any tips?

No, its not rootable

I also would love to flash a T-Mobile rom

when I had a T-Mobil gs7e I flashed an att rom and bricked it.
recovery impossible.

If your phone is unlocked from Sprint you can Odin the 935U firmware and use a Tmobile sim. That firmware also unlocks all the lte bands for Tmobile. I am using it now. Make sure after you Odin you have the Tmobile sim in the phone if the Sprint sim is in it will lock again.

yep. It goes to the CSC settings of your service provider.

Unable to downgrade from U1 unlocked to ATT U firmware

I currently have the U1 unlocked firmware flashed and am trying to flash it back to the original U firmware because of the new bootloader issue. I am receiving an Odin fail error all the time with different USB ports and computers. Is there something I did wrong? Also, I purchased this as a G950U device. I recently got it unlocked through ATT so does that mean it is now a G950U1 device?

The G950U is the unlocked version, so why did you have to unlock it through AT&T?
It should've worked straight off the bat.
This is the U version (For USA, unlocked version) https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s8-8161.php#g950u
And the AT&T version is the G950A.

Ross is confused.
I had this once when PrinceComsy Odin wouldn't work. Use this Odin, it worked when nothing else would, IDK why

Is the bootloader version on the firmware you're trying to flash the same as the one that's on there now? You can't downgrade bootloader versions.

I'm honestly not sure. The firmware was the original stock ATT version and I was running the latest Nougat update. I switched the CSC code back to ATT from AIO this morning using the main guide here, but I am now stuck on that Factory Binary screen. Is there a firmware for v2 bootloader for ATT out there?

NONE! lol I am currently stuck on BL5 and Sprint's stupid firmware being a verizon customer unable to use my edge on my network (unable to receive 4G.) And from what I learned after waiting months for another carrier to come out with a BL5 firmware is that they probably won't and that means ur stuck unable to flash any other rom/firmware for long as u own this phone. If you are on any other version expect the SM-935P then stay there as you are still on BL4 and able to flash what you choose.
