processor - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Move if needed, I have a Samsung galaxy s7 Qualcomm. I already know that I do have a Qualcomm processor from rooting , and firmware files I have used , but still I get some apps thinking that my processor is an exynos processor , but shows as this after I am rooted ,any ideas or ways we can use exynos firmware as we still may never get our bootloafers unlocked or some way of installing other roms or firmware by dual boot or multiboot

[Q] Question about S4/ S5 ROMs

This may be a stupid question, but I'm a newly converted Apple-Android would-be developer so I apologize in advance if the answer is obvious.. I was looking at the processors for the S4 and the S5 and they're both Qualcomm Snapdragons, but just different models. Based on that, it seems they should be able to run the same ROMs (at least the S5 should be able to run S4 ROMs) but from what I've seen they don't seem interchangeable. So my question is, can my GS5 run a ROM developed for the S4 or is there something deeper than just the processor model that determines the kind of ROM that can be run on it?

No, different cpu, gpu, bootloader. It could maybe be ported to the S5 but you can`t flash a original S4 rom on a S5 or vice versa.

Thanks. I'm used to there being a standard on hardware for PCs whereas I guess there isn't one for Android phones. It just seemed odd to me that ROMs have to be rewritten or ported for every particular phone.

Buying the SM-N910G, what should I expect?

Hi everyone;
I'm buying the N910G from a friend of mine and I've just noticed that this device specifically is not supported by any of the ROMS I've come across and liked so far. With the Note 2 it didn't really matter that much, I installed AT&T ROMS on my N7105 and they worked perfectly fine all the time. I don't know about the process here, do Snapdragon ROMS work on Exynos based phones? Do Exynos ROMS that don't support the N910G work on the N910G?
Worst case scenario with the Note 2 when I soft-bricked it I would just plug it into the PC and use Odin to flash the official ROM for my phone and it'll fix any issues, then I'd auto-root it, install recovery, and go back to doing what I was doing.
Anyway, if anyone can help me out here, that would be great. What ROMS can I actually install on it? What are the worrying things I should be avoiding? etc...

Are you crazy , n910g has a good development .
The most supported device is n910f , and n910f roms can be used on n910g .
Exynos roms are limited and you won't see any nougat rom on exynos devices , n910g is snapdragon, if you like roms from exynos development, trust me snapdragon roms are better , the snapdragon community is 20 times larger than exynos community .
Snapdragon Is open source.
Go search something on Google .
Infact the latest note 7 ported roms are made on n910g base .
N910g is best.
On top of that , The renowned issue of note 4 "emmc failure" , has been fixed for n910g .
There is a debrick.img made by me, which can recover your phone even if it is completely unresponsive.
This device is best . Dont even consider any other variant , if your purpose is to flash toms .
It is well supported.

I have n910p, and even use G and F roms with some fixes.
You can't go wrong with snapdragon. You can almost flash all the roms for snapdragon version. But you don't want to try to flash any exynos roms.
Damn! I have been roaming the Exynos section of the forum this whole time thinking it has an exynos chip as the guy I am buying from said it's exynos. And I was wondering how come it has no support and there is no roms for it. I am so glad it's the snapdragon edition. Thanks guys, I'll go check the snapdragon sub-section now!

Can I use SM G360H roms on SM G360T1?

I have noticed that a majority of all the roms belong to SM G360H variants, why is that. Does it matter if the phone is SM G360T1 when flashing a G360H rom that much. Finally, since all the phones are a Galaxy Core Prime variant, with little differences among all, the same processer architecture, and the same amount of ram, they all should work, right?

No it won't work. Yeah we almost have the same specs, but it's not identical. Come to think of it why would Samsung gave us different Model numbers if we have identical devices right?

How can I root my samsung s7 G930F snapdragon

I tried flashing twrp through Odin but it failed. I even check my device info with cpu z to make sure it's exy or snap ,my Samsung is running on snapdragon yet I can't root it help . When I visit samsung past it tell me my phone is rooted so I'm confuse.
You can't
First There is no compatible TWRP with the Snapdragon Model
Second the bootloader is locked so you can't flash any different recovery than your original one
Third It's a dumb idea

To upgrade a phone's Android it's required that
Phone's bootloader can get unlocked
A Custom Recovery suitable to the phone is available
A Custom Android ROM suitable to the phone is available
Chainfire is no longer used its well out of date .
N900T is not this forum .
T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Following on from the success of the Galaxy Note 2, Samsung have managed to cram in a large amount of technology into the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Powered by a Quad-core 2.3GHz Qualcomm processor and 3GB RAM, the Note 3 is by no means a slouch. The display is 5.7" at 1920x1080 and 386ppi. The Note...
