Hi Guys,
I'm wondering if its possible to flash UK/EU stock rom on my S7 that I got from USA. Ideally I want to get rid of the usual bloatware that comes preinstalled from Sprint.
Now my question is that If I managed to flash EU/UK rom, would I still be able to get updates notification as and when Samsung release updates over the air...? Please send me in right direction.
I really appreciate your time and efforts.
Many thanks guys in advance for your help.
anyone up for help please....

You cannot, as the Sprint Galaxy S7 has a locked boot-loader and a Snapdragon chipsets, while the UK/EU variants have a unlockable bootloader and an Exynos chipset. So no, you cannot flash those roms on this phone. However, you can flash the U firmware (find it here: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=48A2011F925C11E7963AFA163EE8F90B ) which will work perfectly with this device, and has no sprint bloatware.
Many thanks for clarification buddy. I really appreciate your help.

You can try Towelroot from here http://towelroot.com/. Just open this site on the phone and hit the Lambda. If its not compatible no harm can be done.

That root method works! But it's not for free. It costs about US$8. and definitely breaks the warranty.
Also It's not easy to pay if you dont live in China.
Root Found
There is a new thread for rooting the g906S follow the link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/sm-g906s-k-l-owner-thread-t2807639

Try checking the firmware thread
Hi guys,
Quick one, I have just obtained a Note 4 N910G. Now, there's about 7 or so snap dragon models. I know it's a country release model reference but I wanted to ask when rooting etc, will a rom that's for say the F model be fine with the G model? Will I brick my device? I'm doubting it, seems to be a CSC related thing perhaps.
Any advice would be much appreciated. If your not sure, please don't comment, I need either a developer or a rom chef to answer this one.
Thank in advance guys.

It shouldn't make a difference. It didn't with my S3 or Note 10.1 2014. I had a Columbian rom on that until the uk kitkat version came out.
hello sorry if its been asked, but is it possible to cross flash S6 edge+? I have the canadian G928W8, and would love to change it to the unbranded international version. If anyone know a trick it would be great. thanks Pigbait.

Hello. Why do u wanna change it sir?
I've got a bunch of carrier loaded bloate, and I don't want to do the crappy disabled app work around, also would be nice to get the OTA updates from Samsung and not need to wait 2years for my carrier to approve the update
Root your phone if you haven't yet. Go to this website. Find the correct firmware and version for your device. Download and flash it. You should be good to go then
Yeah. I have G928C but im using note 5 roms and kernel on it. Its up to your handiness.
