Wondering if it would be possible to port it over for the non-carrier T560NU variant? I can't imagine it'd be hard since the it's the same device, same model, only difference being that it's coming from the carrier T560NU variant the update was rolled out for, and the N 7.1.1 can easily be found online... I hope someone will port it over eventually

If you're in Canada then you should already have this for non-carrier.

It's been awhile since I have owned a Samsung and I'm about to get a Note 4 so I was wondering what Android 7.0 Roms are out that will work with the AT&T Snapdragon model. I see Roms for all the international models and even the T-Mobile variants but I don't see anything for the AT&T variant. I will have to brush up on my flashing and Rom'ing skills as it's been too long since I have done it but I am familiar with doing all this. Thanks guys.

There is no custom ROMs for at&t model to be honest. At&t lock there devices down completely so at present there is no root, no twrp and no ROMs. Dont think there ever will be
callumbr1 , yeah, I have been doing allot of research and it's very disappointing. But there is always getting a t mobile device unlocked and still being able to enjoy some Nougat love.....
Anyone know why all of the firmwares are interchangeable? I've personally been on
Verizon marshmallow
Verizon nougat
Tmobile marshmallow
Tmobile nougat
Att marshmallow
Att nougat
Unlocked marshmallow
And all of the roms for the tmobile/att variant.
SM-G935A...

Because internally there's only 2 different versions one with Exynos and one with Qcom Snapdragon. You see many variants because of stupid carrier bloatware.

Well I know that much, but normally Sammy would've but some sort of protection against this.
I'm on a Verizon s7 g930V running Samsung's stock firmware g930U and I've read that the phones bought through Samsung (so no carrier to go through) are getting Nougat OTA already.
I'm rooted, so it obviously gets mad if I try to check for an OTA, but should I unroot and check for a nougat OTA?
Do we know of anyone trying this successfully?
Does a Nougat Odin install package exist somewhere with "g930u" in the beginning of the filename?
Let me know if I should bother guinnea pigging on this one.
No need, I just checked and there's no update. Nothing online about it either. Seems only the international models are getting 7.0 at this time.
930/935 U is on quarterly updates. There will likely be no Nougat till April at the earliest.
so is there any possible way of running nougat on sm-g30u?
am i able to flash sm-g30f firmware on this to get nougat or is this not possible as they are different models?

The F model is the international version and it is not compatible with the US unlocked S7. You can however flash any US carrier version firmware on the the SM-G930U.
thanks, are they any known issues in smg930u like the ones i raised earlier?
seems very buggy in australia. Microphone is also recording muffled and louspeaker calls echo on my listeners end and no noise cancellation
getting frustrated with the device, network is bad, any possible way of flashing the baseband from a sm-g30F to a SM-G930U?
I need the network more reliable. Now i regret not checking the model number before buying the phone

EDIT: Neverfmind, figured it out.
I looked everywhere but can't find a solution, since it's April 2017 and it's something unheard of that a Samsung flagship is still almost a year behind on the new android version I wanna know if there's the chance to flash the g935f nougat or the TMO version on it. Plus i was wondering if the bootloader is unlockable since I believe it's required for such a procedure.
can i know if i can install the nougat firmaware for g935f on my g935u?
Before I start, this is the first android phone I've ever owned so the question may or may not be stupid.
So I live in India and I saw the trade-in deal for the S8. I was in need of an upgrade (iPhone 6) so I went for it as I was heading to the U.S soon. I heard that the international version gets updates sooner than the unlocked U.S version. Can I just change my firmware to international, get earlier updates with no drawback? If yes then why have I not seen a lot on this?
Pretty sure the firmware is locked to the device unless you root. I had an unlocked international S6(920?F) . It updated a lot earlier than the W released in Canada.

If the device you get is G950F (international) then updates will come sooner. If you get any other version they are for specific regions, so if you get G950U (US unlocked) you can't flash international firmware to it. Can only flash firmware for the model you get.

Then what are the benefits of people switching carriers for example? There seem to be a bunch of threads giving a tutorial on how to change firmware to different carries e.g. From a T Mobile to Unlocked.

For stuff like WiFi calling, voLTE, removal of bloat some csc tweaks
Guess that's unfortunate.
