Need to get back to stock. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

Hey all,
I am running one of JKRuze's ROMS and have been for over a year. It's basically a slightly modified, non-rooted version of Android 7.0. My spotify has quit working, and one of the final questions their support team asked me is if I am running a modified OS on my phone. ****. So, I need to go back to stock. I tried following a method on here, but it failed to Odin. Anyone know if there is a thread around here with best method to get back to stock?

ODIN is the only method i know,never failed for me. try downloading files again( personally using U firmware)

Where can I get the latest U firmware? I have not been able to find a reliable link.

Yeah, I went to that link from another post last night, and for the life of me, could not figure out how to download. I hate when sites do that. Hide the download link in some obscure location with a bunch of other buttons with the word download in big letters that just lead you to some other bogus garbage...

Try using an adblocker. Anyway it's in the top right, here's a screenshot:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}

Thanks.. That link says it is for SM-G935U. I've got the SM-G935V, will it still work?

Please help. I thought I had installed stock, but now my phone will not connect to cellular data. Data link seems fine.
Update... Never mind, I believe I have it figured out. I did not add the BL, CP, and CSC slots via odin.

UNLOCK Help, Please

OK, I'm trying to unlock a Vibrant for someone else. I have read and tried several methods with no success yet.
I had Axura 2.2 and tired the SGSUnlock with no luck
I ODIN'd back to stock20100512.pit / t959UVJFD.tar and SGSUnlock still doesn't work. Ive tried two variants of it, nothing.
I have limited experience with ADB (driver issues between multiple devices so I use ADBWireless) and was able to get an nv_data.bak and used a hex gen to get this (screenshot).

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
According to notes, I'm to find the code separated by periods, but I have no periods. Anyone have an idea or can lead me to a quick fix?
Remaining questions, once I generate a code, will the code I use at stock 2.1 work once I flash 2.2 back on?
Thanks for any help or guidance, much appreciated!
anyone? Bump?
You're out of luck as far as SGS Unlock goes. Any ROM update JI6 or later corrupts the code in the nv_data.bin file. There is this method thanks to helroz that has worked though.

thanks for that... Seems like work Will an unlock code from TMO still work outright?

If you use this method I don't think so since it changes the actual code. You could always call TMO and get the code instead of doing it this way as well. Think it usually takes a few days.
If you need a unlock. Hit me up. No matter the rom. no matter the lock.
Same here. I need to unlock a vibrant I just got.

If you just got it then you are still on 2.1? Just search the market for "SGS Unlock", that'll do it.

2.2 Froyo update download?

Anyone have any idea where I can find the download link to upgrade my Epic to Froyo. All of the tutorials link to google's server, which the update is no longer available on.
Thanks

I must be more of a noob than I thought...I have no luck figuring out Multiload. I register, I try to download but nothing. I used to download tons of roms and flash for my TP2 but something keeps me from doing Multiload. They were mostly Hotfilewhich everyone hated...but worked great for me. Any help? I can see the file there but it won't let me do it.

Out of it...

Hi, I've been on a volunteer project for 3 weeks and before that I had been keeping my phone stock (I was waiting for something I really liked to come out) I've unlocked my boot loader before but I flashed back to .83 and I got into the Moto beta program so I updated officially to the new .91
The problem is: I've been out of this for so long I literally have no clue how to install Alien (Build 4)
Can someone point me to the tutorials I need to follow (In order) to install Alien?\
I also think this could be useful for new Atrix users etc
Seriously?
Open your eyes and read! Or leave it...
OK, re-flash pudding like you were unlocking your bootloader again,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136261
then install cmw using fastboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
then install alien.
If you need more help then that, I would spend some time catching up, if you unlocked your bootloader before, not that much has changed since then.

You have nothing to contribute, and therefore nothing to say. Please act accordingly.
To the OP: CM7 has come out in a pre-beta form since you've been gone. I would try that and Alien both. See which one you like better...

Your odin flashing sequence failed. Repeat the odin flash procedure with that screen up until successful. Make sure you're plugged into at least a usb2.0 port on your computer, and using the original usb cable that came with the phone.
If you're unsure of what baseband you originally had, your best bet is to flash the latest firmware
If you can't get the latest tar to install using odin, try to run cf autoroot through odin. It has been known to fix that error,
The OP should really come back online and let us know of he has been able to fix the problem.

Having trouble with Heimdall

I was informed this might be the better subforum for this post...
Greetings!
I am trying to revert my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 G900V(B) back to Lollipop from Marshmallow. I don't have a PC but a Macbook Pro so I can't use ODIN. Instead I have downloaded Heimdall. I have downloaded several different versions of the Lollipop stock ROM but the Heimdall GUI is not recognizing them.
I *really* need to revert this back to Lollipop so I can use towelroot to get rid of all the crap Verizon bloatware that is eating my memory and making my phone unusable.
Any help would be so so so appreciated, thank you!
