Hey guys, need your help. I flashed Superman ROM and then I don't know what happened, the IMEI is 000000000000. Any way to fix it? My phone won't even register on the network anymore :( Flashing everything stock through ODIN didn't help either.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] BCSC:
No, It shouldn't. The modem keeps the same bands so it will connect to the networks the exact same as it did before.

I had someone offer me the note 7 for my s7 edge. Only problem is its a qualcomm phone which means battery is going to suck.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] peachpuff:
The battery will also explode... but ya the qualcomm chip will have worse battery life and stuttery performance.

If you didn't backup your efs, nobody cept samsung can help you. No guarantee they will want to, but they can.

I've been using Nova Launcher since I got the phone..

It's battery usage was fine.

But Today my battery went from 100 to 19 in about 2 hours! I when I checked the battery usage I saw that Nova is draining the battery..

Can someone explain me what could be going on with the

Phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] cantenna:
I don't know why this happen to you or why this is happening for some in general? I flashed that rom too on my Canadian S7 edge and while it did tamper with the CSC I didn't loose it all together. Does anyone know why this is happening to some and not others??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] yeahitsgotahemii:
Well you are speaking about 2 different things here. The CSC might very well have been changed this is going to vary by carrier and location. The IMEI is like your phones serial number, if its not backed up and it gets wiped there is no solution other then to try samsung, your carrier, or buy a new one. *there are shady phone tech's that can mess with IMEI's but it is usually considered illegal, much like tampering with a serial number*
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] cantenna:
So as long as I have an efs partition backed up with twrp, then if my efs were ever to get wiped out, the backup would fix we everything?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] cbprod:
hello i have an injustice edition edge. im on wind mobile. im getting not registered on network. is there a way i can get this phone working?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] BCSC:
Are you the original owner and is it unlocked?? Not registered on network is an error common with blacklisted phones or if the device is locked.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] force70:
Besides the exploding the BL is locked which pretty much kills development.

No thanks.

Well I caved in and flashed back my firmware to APB, I really hope the update after the August one will be better. Getting a bit tired of reverting firmwares to achieve a solid 2 days of battery
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] BCSC:
By update after the August update, you must mean the one that hits in April. I doubt you will see anything before then.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] crutzulee:
Has anyone heard anything credible about Samsung pay coming to Canada?

Will it come as an update that the carriers will drag their heels on or will the app just be ready to download on the Samsung app store?

Will they cripple it up here?

It didn't come with Samsung Cloud :/

Ota? When was that? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] slightlyevil:
API1 is now available on telus for S7 Edge detail says that the security of the device has been upgraded. It does not mention any new features.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] htcplussony:
I'm guessing there is no new gallery either. Should have known since the firmware still starts with a A instead of B
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] jark99:
I meant the initial software that was shipped with the phone (APB firmware). That seems to be the best in terms of standby, and overall usage and performance for me personally. The April update you are referring to is APD :p
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] crutzulee:
Installing now...

Just to confirm this new OTA is only security patches correct? Nothing major done to the software at all? like OS tweaks and such for standby/battery etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] that be me:
Nothing to report so far. Shows up as just a security update. No Samsung Cloud or new gallery yet.

Will say that after fighting tooth and nail to get wifi calling on my Rogers device, this update seems to have removed it. C'est la vie :(.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] BCSC:
No, I really meant that we probably wont see a firmware update before April 2017.

How is the battery life on Sept update?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] jark99:
It appears it's nothing more than a security update, so Battery would be the same as before
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] htcplussony:
Maybe there's some modem fixes as with regards to the Rogers/Fido network.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] fidorulz:
Modem was updated from G935W8VLU1APG1 to G935W8VLU2API1 with the last update as per

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935W8/

Running the new modem on my Echo ROM on my Fido S7 Edge and notice LTE seems a bit better
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kmarteni:
It appears Modem and Bootloader were updated with latest update. I was unable to return to previous firmware without causing an error. Have anyone tried rooting latest firmware? I tried once and got stuck at boot screen
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] mistry121:
It does mention in the update notes that you cannot revert to previous firmware after the update due to security reasons. I'm still on APB7 because it has the best standby time in my opinion but if anyone could do a couple of battery tests on this new firmware it would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
I have the September update, just got it last night. Using an unlocked S7 Edge from the Samsung Experience Store on Rogers.

Anybody have any luck getting an unlocked s7 edge to use volte and wifi calling on Rogers? I've tried so many things including customer support and can't get it working.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
When trying to use volte on Rogers with unlocked s7 edge (from Samsung Experience store) it shows not registered in settings. I have a volte enabled simcard and Rogers has registeredy my imei. Any fix? Wifi calling doesn't work either :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
You need get Samsung to change your CSC to RWC in order for VoLTE and WiFi calling working on your unlocked S7/Edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
I believe it's already set to the Rogers CSC (see screenshot). Wifi calling and volte options are in the software along with all Rogers apps and bloat but they don't work.

Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/MBz4919.png

The menu showing CSC can be accessed by entering the following in the dialer: *#272*yourIMEI#
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
You will probably have to ask Rogers to provision those two features on your account one more time.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] GibMcFragger:
As far as I know, Rogers does not allow VoLTE on devices purchased outside an official Rogers Dealer. Meaning, phones from the Samsung Store will not work, no matter how much you try.

There are several angry posts about it in the Rogers forums.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Idan73:
I wouldn't be surprised if they told him that they added imei just to get him off the phone, while not provisioning the phone at all.

It is just sad that they would resort to discriminating based in imei while using open protocol that comes preloaded (but not enabled) on most Android phones released in past 3 years.

All to protect their own handsets revenue stream.

Occasionally, I would get an apologists post in reply to my rant how Rogers only makes barely 50 bucks per phone.

Firstly, yeah right.... Secondly, $50 x over 9 million Rogers customers upgrading phone over 2 years... Nice chunk of change.

And the funniest thing of all. The parent company of wireless wave, Costco booth, Samsung store, etc.... Guess..... Partialy owned by Rogers.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Sevael:
I just did it and it worked fine. I updated via Odin and flashed SuperSU through TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
Yes, it will work as long as its csc changes to rwc or fmc; otherwise, file a complaint to ccts.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] GibMcFragger:
No it won't. If the imei isn't in the Rogers system as a Rogers branded device (as in purchased from them), VoLTE won't work. They won't allow it. I was on Rogers, and was a regular in the forums. There was tons of rage over that, but nothing anyone could do. Rogers limits it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Idan73:
Just curious, but asking, as you were regular on Rogers forum.

What is their stand on iPhone, bought unlocked, from Apple store?

As I remember, before this wifi calling /volte, you could always get phone unlocked by Rogers, by simply stating you got iPhone (that was not in Rogers database) as a service replacement from Apple. Frey would proceed to add imei, then unlock it, whereas the android conversation was always dead in the water (yes I understand that android is unlocked from Rogers code database, whereas Apple was always server unlocked from apple), but I reveals pattern.

I have a feeling Apple customers don't have much issue adding wifi calling etc, but could be wrong.

I guess everyone that has issue with this, should file with ccts, rather than just post here or Rogers forum. If only to reverse their bragging claims of constantly reduced complaints with ccts.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] MaverickHHH:
I have a Samsung s7 edge bought from the Samsung store. Initially it did not have volte or wifi calling. However I have it using a Rogers business account and with my work mobile device management software. I called Rogers saying I needed to test volte and wifi calling for work features. They found out my phone was bought at Samsung so they said my imei won't work until Rogers allow it. But then after a few days, I have wifi calling and volte enabled. This is after I changed the csc to Fido then back to Rogers. Something happened that in that process that enabled the features. Either Rogers manually enabled my imei or flashing to Fido, registering for wifi then flashing back to Rogers csc did something. Fyi.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Aakash Kaushal:
Good news for non rooted users :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] GibMcFragger:
That I don't know. I haven't owned an iPhone in years, so I asked the iPhone forum. I'm willing to bet that the VoLTE rules are different though, because Apple tells the carriers what they can and cannot do, not the other way around.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] jark99:
I'm in the same boat! It someone can comment on the performance compared to APB7 in terms of standby times, that'd help a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] that be me:
Do you still have wifi calling and volte after updating? I got my device from a samsung store and only recently got it working. Now that I downloaded the update, the options are still there, but the phone won’t activate these features.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
I have exactly the same experience as you. Initially my device didn't even have those two features under Phone settings menu. After I filed a complaint to ccts, Samsung contacted me and changed the csc from xac to fmc. I had to ask fido to provision those features many times before they were fully functional. I didn't give my imei fido.

After the latest update a few days ago, both features are still working.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
Do you know how they changed the CSC? Was it using the dialer code I showed in my earlier post?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
Yes, I do; however, I couldn't change CSC via the regular code you provided in your earlier post. Samsung did it at the end.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
They applied some sort of fix from their end or did you have to go in to the store?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
Don't go to store because they do nothing helpful.

Since you already have those features under your Phone settings menu, your device must have RWC CSC. Mine didn't have them before switching to Fido CSC.

You'd better contact Rogers to provision those features again. I had to let Fido do it several times before they worked. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] MaverickHHH:
Yes. I got the latest updates and wifi calling and volte are both still enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] that be me:
So, in theory, all I'd need to do is back-up my device, change my CSC from RWC to whatever Fido's code is, change it back, then restore from the back up. Is this more or less what you did to get it to work?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
How did you switch back to the Rogers CSC after switching to Fido? I used the dialer code to switch CSC to Fido but now that same code does not work and I am unable to change CSC back to Rogers again. I can try flashing with ODIN but I was curious to hear what you did first.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] MaverickHHH:
*#272*IMEI#

It worked on both fido and Rogers.

Reminder this will wipe your phone.

---------- Post added at 02:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------

Or maybe Rogers added my IMEI when I spoke to business support. I'm not sure.

When I was on Fido csc, I registered for wifi calling. That was the one extra step I did.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
Interesting. I'm not even able to register for Wi-fi calling, it says my device is not eligible. What a bunch of anti-consumer asshats. I am restoring RWC CSC now (I must have entered the wrong dialer code) and will update here IF volte starts working. Odds are it won't as Rogers is likely stringing me along. Very very anti-consumer.

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 PM ----------

Well after hours of speaking with reps who say different things and several resets later it doesn't work (wifi calling or volte) and this is all i can get from them:

ROGERS REP

I do see that on the account you are eligible for WiFi calling. However with this being said on the Rogers network WiFi calling currently does not work on non Rogers Unlocked devices. I sincerely apologize.

ME

The model of phone sold in Canada by Samsung is the same across carriers, model number G935W8 . The only difference is the CSC.

‎02‎:‎30‎ ‎PM

ME

So I'm just wondering why the inconsistency.

‎02‎:‎30‎ ‎PM

ME

Other people have had to file claims with the CTSC and I really do not want to go down that road because it's more of my time you are inevitably taking.

‎02‎:‎30‎ ‎PM

ROGERS REP

I do apologize however all non Rogers unlocked devices are currently not compatible on the Rogers network. At the moment this is not compatible however it is something that our software development team is looking into a the moment. However at the moment wifi calling will not work or enable on unlocked devices.

ME

How was the other user able to get his device working? Yes it is that way unfortunately because in the back end you have the device flagged as non rogers because it didn't come from a rogers store despite being the 100% same hardware running the same CSC and software. The only difference is how it's provisioned in your backend. Can you please shed some light on the volte issue? Is this the same as wifi calling?

‎02‎:‎33‎ ‎PM

ME

Because two reps I spoke to stated it should work as long as it's provisioned in the backend and I have the correct plan, phone and sim card.

‎02‎:‎37‎ ‎PM

ROGERS REP

When looking into VoLTE it is not compatible with unlocked devices as well. It can work, but is not compatible on the Rogers network.

ROGERS REP

Unfortunately we cannot make this change on the Rogers network. This is something that can only be changed by our network developers. Also it is not something we can send off a ticket to to have resolved. Unlocked devices are currently not compatible for VoLTE and WiFi calling on our network. It may be something that will be changed in the near future. However now as it stands it is not compatible and will not work on the Rogers network.

Also he said what I read on the internet is most likely lies. I linked to your post maverick and re-iterated you got it working and what not but he just said you are lying because it's not possible :(

I'm wondering, did you ever enter the unlock code you got from the Samsung store?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] MaverickHHH:
Actually yes. I unlocked my phone with the Samsung code the first day.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sc2ascend:
Same. Well idk where to go from here, I guess ccts (had wrong acronym before). This is frustrating it's like they're just telling me no and to f off.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] MaverickHHH:
Yeah sorry. I gave up too at the time. It just started working out of the blue after going to Fido csc and back.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] msavic6:
Basically identical to the previous build for me. Android System is still going wild and battery life is pretty poor overall. I have yet to fix the Android System drain and not even a factory reset has been able to tame it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
I suggest you file a complaint to ccts right away. It doesn't take too much effort but explain your situation. In the meantime, ask Rogers to provision those features under your account again. Don't listen to those bs because most CSRs are not competent to what they are doing. You may tell them you have an iPhone 6s. In my situation, i never had to provide my imei. You may ask Rogers where its TOC states those features are not compatible with unlocked devices. Nowhere.

BTW, you don't need to change CSC from FMC to RWC. Rogers and Fido Android devices work to both networks even without unlocking.

I have a Roger's phone bought from bestbuy and rooted and unrooted now I don't have volte any ideas
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] fidorulz:
The way it works for rogers/fido for wifi calling and VoLTE to get provisioned on your account the phone must be added on your account and the IMEI needs to be detected as a fido/rogers device.

Rogers/Fido has a list of IMEIs for their devices and once the devices get added to peoples accounts its recognized as a fido/rogers device automatically.

This is done for many reasons such as eligibility for services, warranty purposes, unlock code requests and many others

If the device is unlocked or directly from samsung it may not be detected as a rogers/fido device and thus wifi calling and VoLTE may not work

This is one of the issues being experienced with the Note 7 exchanges due to the battery recall. Many of the replacements are not being detected as fido/rogers and thus customers have issues with Wifi Calling/VoLTE
