SamFirm does not load any info for an ATT S8+ / Does not show "USA" Region option. What do I do? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion

I hate ATT. I hope their stupid company dies soon.
Anyway, I'm trying to flash my ATT S8+ that is running Android 7.0 with Android Pie. I first attempted to use Frija and it said that the ATT "CSC code not supported". I then tried SamFirm and when I input the phone model SM-G955U, it doesn't show the "United States" Region option.
Ideally, I would like to flash my phone with an unbranded Android Pie. What do I do?
UPDATE: I am able to find many different firmware files on SamFrew. However, I still need to know if I can flash an unbranded XAA file from there?
Will it work? And do I need a modded version of Odin to flash? I came across some guy's youtube tutorial that says only to use a modded Odin to flash unbranded firmware on an ATT Samsung phone, but unfortunately his video is from three years ago and so I'm not sure if the modded Odin he's linked to will be compatible and be able to flash the much recent released firmware updates.
UPDATE: Issue resolved. I went ahead and flashed it and it worked.

OTA android 7 update for g935fd not working

Hey guys,
The OTA update for android 7 has come up in my s7 edge duos. I have tried downloading it twice........it gets to 100% and says there an error and that it's the wrong version.
Not sure what to do.........any ideas
Download and flash the rom through odin.
Did you ever flash a different rom? Which brand is respectively CSC has your phone?
Never flashed another rom........bought the phone off amazon.com............it's zn international version, but looks like the supplier got them from UAE.

the supplier may have gotten from UAE but the csc may not be from there.
you can try downloading the Rom from samfirmware and flashing that way.
Thanx for the reply guys, how can I find out the CSC on the phone? Also if I flash with odin, Will that erase all the data on the phone? And will it trip the knox?
Why is it that the update doesn't work? How come the software on my phone doesn't match the update it's downloading? Is it something the supplier/seller has done to the phone? Like modify the software?
Thanx guys
Install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ and you get all necessary information.
If you flash with Odin Know won't be triggered. You can keep your data with the three following requirements:
- The firmware you flash must have the CSC included you use at the moment.
- You need to use HOME_CSC file instead of CSC file.
- You may not tick re-partition.
Keep in mind to only flash firmwares designed for the Exynos variant.
Sellers on Amazon sometimes get phones from a different market and flash then a firmware fitting your market. This is rather a replacement than a modification (since the whole system is still official) and Knox is not triggered. However, one effect is that OTA may not work or gives "phantom" update notices. There's no restriction aside of that and you can just use Odin to remain updated.
You can post screens from all pages of the app I mentioned and we can see what's going on.
Hey Andiling, really appreciate your help pal. Here are some pictures you requested. Thank you

S8 G950U - n00b in distress

Hi xda Team
I've been searching through the forum and reading just to find a bit of answer before I ask, however, the answers I've found are really limited.
Let me first off say I am a n00b....... awesome glad we are now on the same page
I have an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S8 ATT version currently on baseband G950USQU1AQEF, it only got there because I found a thread where I could manually download each update file and place it on my card and do a manual update .... now imagine having to do that for every single update... sucks huh??
The main issue is my found would not do the OTA update, it keeps saying its up to date so I am still stuck on android 7.0 when 8.0 has been out for decards
A post was made of the official firmware update .. here is the link https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s8/how-to/att-g950u-stock-odin-files-firmware-t3795961
My question is can I simple download odin and install that update without any issues??
Will it lock back my phone??
Please let me know if I can just go ahead and install it.
Thanks in advance for your answers and understanding my noobiness
Go to Updato.com and search firmware for the G950U. Sort by date and the newest will be at the top.
The latest listed is CRF5 and says Verizon. Now, since the last 7.0 firmware I believe it was, ALL carrier files are included. Meaning even though it says Verizon, you can flash it on an AT&T variant and you will have all the AT&T bloat and no VZW. I always flash the Verizon version because it gets posted the soonest, and ones officially labeled AT&T never do.
You will need the latest update file:
https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=9101315B86C211E89F15FA163EE8F90B
AND the latest modded Odin to flash 8.0 files:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JMjqNxg8Y8W-Tpo9TCYIb_LL7LhhpHri/view?usp=sharing
NOTES:
-I always remove the .md5 off the end of each file just to make it flash faster.
-Home CSC will keep all your info, the NON Home CSC will do a complete wipe of your phone
On the question of "will it lock back my phone?"
No. Once the phone is unlocked, that's it. Firmware has no affect on its network lock status.

Flashing unlocked to Tmobile firmware

So I'm currently going crazy.
Have s10+ unlocked.
Baseband version: G975U1UEU2ASGB
SM-G975U1_9_004
I'm wanting to flash tmobile firmware to improve cell signal.
I've done some research and know I need to flash U firmware just not sure which one and if it has to be them same as the current firmware the phone has.
Can someone please provide step by step on what I would need to do as well as what firmware I would need to flash to achieve this.
I don't want to mess it up and then suddenly get stuck on boot.
Thanks in advance.

Head over to sammobile and follow the directions in this link. You will need the modified Odin from here. The sammobile link is the latest t-mobile firmware. If you ever want to go back to the u1 firmware that is located here as well.

Awesome thank you so much. I'll give it a go later today ?
Does anybody have a mirror or can you upload the latest tmobile firmware?
I've been trying to download for 4 days and at 92% the download just stops. Ive tried all sorts of different sites and nothing so far.
my experience is that samfirm works consistently while the others don't. Download the samfirm app then enter the model you want (SM-G975U). The region will be TMB for T-Mobile, and let it download the files and decrypt for you.
Try frija, I was losing my mind looking for it also, initially it didn't work but after installing c++ 8 something something it worked. Downloaded really fast also
I'm not able to find anything for T-Mobile USA in the latest version of this tool. Has anyone else been able to find it?

S10+ G975U want to remove ATT bloatware.

Hey there. My S10+ G975U is running G975USQS4DTF6, One UI 2.1, wanna flash unbranded.
Tried a couple tutorials from here but nothing has removed the AT&T bloatware.
Familiar with flashing, odin, combo files, etc.
It's my phone, completely accessible. I just want to remove the system hog bloatware.
'preciate it!
Just flash an G975U1 ROM and you will get rid of those bloatware

Thanks for your responce!
So have to root/unlock flash custom recovery first? If so I haven't found instructions for the US AT&T model.
Any advice much appreciated.
Tried two firmwares with odin 3.13.1, 3.13.3, 3.14.1 patched
G975USQS3CTB6_G975UOYN3CTB6_TMB
G975USQU1ASBA_G975UOYN1ASBA_USC
Always either SH256 SW and/or SW REV CHECK FAIL.
Tried another couple firmwares with odin 3.13.1, 3.13.3, 3.14.1 patched....
G975USQS3CTB6_G975UOYN3CTB6_TMB
still Always either SH256 SW and/or SW REV CHECK FAIL.
also always abl.elf, xbl.elf fail in Odin.
Should I use mount the Userdata? I think i've tried both ways and they fail. Ugh, losing track of what I've tried now.
I did this a year ago when I first got my S10+ Verizon and flashed the unlocked rom on it.
I believe that there's a modded version of oden here. Find it and download the latest original unlocked firmwear and you should be good.
No root and nothing

Downloaded the most recent through Frija for CSC "USC" and "TMO"
Tried flashing with Odin modded and regular. abd 3.14.4 now.
Still keep getting SW REV CHECK FAIL " [ab1]Fuzed 4 > Binary 3"
Also, the I've noticed sometimes HOME CSC is used or included when other times regular CSC is.
USERDATA is sometimes not used, what's up with that?
Thanks again for any more leads. I keep flashing and wishing lol
There are two very similar models: 975U and 975U1. The one ending in U1 should be unbranded.
I need to unlock bootloader?

Recently tried both:
SM-G975U_1_20200722120433_iwlnbyil7p_fac
SM-G975U_1_20200610113004_mh0r74212v_fac
Both from Frija
Is that 1 in the middle correct?
Which version number of Odin is for S10+ Android 10 i guess would help narrow down my problem too?
Besides the firnware Odin has to match too right? Or can you just use the most recent version for any earlier firmwares too?
Added screenshots from Phone Info SAM
It comes down to confirming exactly which firmware is needed, version of Odin (modded or not), which CSC to put in(CSC or HOME) and is USERDATA necessary too?
Thanks again all!!!

Most of your questions can be answered here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/how-to/sm-g975u-firmware-downloads-tmo-spr-att-t3908657
You can flash any Rom (V, ATT, or anty other American Rom) you want as long as you don't go backwards on your bootloader version. The version # is the 5th from the last digit on your baseband #. I flashed a U1 rom on Verizon bought S10+ and now get updates straight from Samsung with no vendor apps at all.
Winner:
USC-G975U1UES4DTG1-20200806151900

T387AAUCS3CUD1 Firmware for SM-T387AA (Samsung Galaxy Tab A)

Hi!
Does anyone know where I can find the T387AAUCS3CUD1 stock ROM? I'm trying to fix a unit that I may have messed up by tinkering with custom ROMs.
Anyone?
Still nothing?
Hi also searching high and low for T387AAUCS3CUD1.
Any success finding it?
Samsung Galaxy Tab A (T387AA) - Software Update for the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (T387AA) - AT&T
Get Samsung Galaxy Tab A (T387AA) support for the topic: Software Update for the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (T387AA). Find more step-by-step device tutorials on att.com.
www.att.com
ATT is worthless - no support. OTA Android 8 won't update to Android 10. Says already current.
No luck yet :-(
Still no luck.
Someone recently gave me a SM-T387AA, came across this thread while looking for the latest firmware for the device. It does appear that T387AAUCS3CUD1 is the latest for the AA version, which I also was unable to locate. (probably because ATT uses their own servers for firmware instead of samsung) However, while searching, I also came across a newer version of firmware for SM-T387W.
Specifically:
AP VERSION T387WVLS3CVK2
CSC VERSION T387WOYV3CVK2
CSC VTR (Canada)
ANDROID VERSION Q(Android 10)
SIZE 2.62 GB Full Files
MD5 d3b07faf990e6b33b55f5f39839799e4
BUILD DATE 20221114152111
SECURITY PATCH LEVEL 2022-06-01
To my surprise, I flashed the 387W firmware on my 387AA with ODIN and everything seems to be working just fine. Still can't unlock my bootloader though. I see there's also a 387R4 variant. I might try that next, and will report back if I do.
Would this not though prevent a user from being able to use it on AT&T?

I popped in an ATT sim and calls/txt appear to be working.
Oh interesting, I wonder what the difference between the two firmware versions are then?

I used Bifrost. It can pull the latest firmware for most samsung devices that are hosted on samsung servers. Type in the model, "SM-T387W" and the CSC, "VTR", check for update and then download.
