I am used to rooting my older phones. Just got this Samsung Galaxy S8 today.
However it is loaded with bloatware from T-mobile. I really want to get rid of it..
Any links to how I can remove this, or add another ROM / Stock Firmware without all the bloatware.
Any advice helps.
Thanks again..
Flash the unlocked U1 firmware. Go to updato.com and search for G950U1. There's TMobile versions that have carrier settings but no bloat. There's tons of guides around so I'm not topping one of those out.
Same thing..
So I did flash firmware from the site you listed, found my T-Mobile firmware..
Still has T-Mobile bloatware and tons more of Samsung apps then before....
Which version would have 0 bloatware??? I just want a clean version with no T-Mobile crap.. =[
Did you wipe it afterwards? Did you flash the G950U1 or G950U firmware? Unlocked FW should have no carrier bloat, but will have removable Samsung apps...
Odin Flash, it will restart in Recovery and apply update. Watch for it to restart. Hold Bixby and Volume Up. Wait for the recovery screen to show up, chose Wipe Data/Reset. Then restart
You should be flashing this one: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=2FE5DAF5D55111E7A5F9FA163EE8F90B
Update & FW
I have downloaded SM-G950U1 XAA Firmware, however when I load it into Odin, It gives me 'Wrong Model' or it fails.
I had to download SM-G950U T-MOBILE Firmware, seemed to be the only one that would work for me. Yet still has all the apps, etc.
Im usually pretty tech savy with this stuff, but this is picking my brain. Not sure why its so difficult to have a 'lite' or 'debloated' version.

I downloaded the other Odin you had recommended. This is what I got, I did not use the Home.
Additional Note: The lady at T-Mobile store did the upgrade, so would it be because my Android version is more new than the one I am trying to flash? If so, how could I revert this?

I checked the AP/PDA file you were trying to flash and it's apparently a 4.3 firmware which if you had a 4.4 before will not be possible to downgrade to a 4.3 firmware at the moment. So you have to flash a 4.4 firmware/roms.

You only needed to show the above - you seem to be currently on the latest bootloader (from 4.4.2) and you are trying to write (at least parts of) an older bootloader sequence - that is not possible, at least not on N9005. Basically on N9005 once you went for the 4.4.2 bootloader you can only write a 4.4.2 ROM, read more around the sub-forums since there are hundreds of posts more or less similar to yours.
Also I find a little strange that you say you are on N9005 and you are trying to write stuff for N900A, and very strange that you are still surprised it does not work.

I'm trying to reflash Oreo to my Verizon S8. I have downloaded the latest SM-G950U VZW Oreo 8.0.0 firmware using SamFirm. Latest Samsung USB drivers and Odin 3.13.1. However when I run Odin, it fails almost immediately with the output below. I have tried using an older version of Odin along with the modded 3.13.1 version found on XDA and it fails at the same spot. Have tried with all 3 USB ports (2.0 and 3.1) on my laptop and 2 different OEM usb cables and none of them fix it.

Yes. I had to use a different computer. Not sure why it mattered, but I used the latest version of Odin, same firmware files, OEM cable, latest samsung usb drivers, and android adb drivers. Didn't change anything besides the PC and it worked. Hopefully it solves your issue too, good luck.
Hi i was trying to flash a new rom to my s7 edge so i downloaded what i thought was a good rom to use. However, when i did the flashing using Odin, it now boots directly to recovery, and when i click on the reboot system, it goes to a screen that says SBL ERROR UPLOAD MODE and that pretty much stays there. I am so confused and frustrated now because i just don't know what else to do. I can boot to the download mode, however, all the models i have tried(s7 edge sm-935v) do not get past the FAIL! SHA256 is invalid error. PLEASEE any help would be highly appreciable.
this is the log i get in odin
