Does anyone have recent experience flashing carrier firmware to the unlocked (U1) model, especially on BL5? Does it still require combination firmware or can I just flash the latest AT&T firmware from Updato using regular Odin?
It would just be regular firmware from at&t. The same way if you wanna flash back to the unlocked firmware. No combination files are needed.

To flash the newest version of the 935u firmware over the recent 935t release does the phone need to be unlocked first?
no
No. But it better to unlock first since the T-mobile Unlock App won't work on the "U" version.
Title says it all. Has anyone flashed successfully the Carrier specific Nougat 7.x FW to the unlocked Edge SM-G935U model?
What are the steps? What functions work/do not work?
Get hold of a firmware and flash it through Odin... since hardware is the same there should be no compatibility issues on that level.
With the bootloaders being updated and not being able to flash different firmwares, I was thinking would it be possible to update to the oreo Beta on ones current firmware and maybe from there downgrade to the desired carrier firmware.
The S8 G950U1 is exact same hardware as S8 active G892U. Yet recent ATT firmware ending in CRF5 doesn't flash in modded Odin. I can't understand why. I can only get an older ATT Oreo FW to flash.
I just fixed up a Galaxy S8 and want to flash it stock. I am trying to flash the U1 firmware but it just ends up failing. I apparently need to flash something called a combination firmware first? Can someone please provide me some info?
