You have visited a service centre which has less budget limit. Hence they are asking you the advanced payment.

Dont replace battery from there as they will take more than 2 weeks to get it done.

Visit a bigger service centre. They will do it in just 20mins. Also the battery cost is around 2000INR. The extra 250+ is service charge. (out of warranty)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Farani94:
I m going through some weird and unique set of problems, hope all of u can read it patiently.

I bought s7 edge 32gb black color in February 2016 and its been more than 2yrs since then.

I had rootee my phone on marshmallow only and my jio was working perfectly, since nougat beta testing started, i took part in that and got it installed in my phone.

Jio wasnt working in start but after some rooting tweak i got it to work using deflection but after official update like everyone got jio working om their phone in stock condtion but my jio didnt work after flashing stock nougat.

In Marshmallow the carrier logo showed "Volte LTE" abd after Nougat it shows "Volte4G" and just data works and call n sms dont work anymore.

I flashed stock rom for like 40 times and the result was still the same, i tried flashing stock roms from different months but result was same, jio worked on my brother's s7 edge with same card with same firmware but mine dint work.

So even today with nougat update on my phone with January 2018 security patch still my phpne doesnt work with Jio.

I need to root my phone and install CSC selection and afer choosing INS csc everything works perfectly.

But with rooting i am getting very pathetic battery life and my battery needs replacement as its nit working well even on stock roms without jio.

Well lasy week i tried to try my luck one more time and tried to flash latest firmware through odin but it failed and error code was something about nand and i searched on google and it says that my nand is corrupted.

Somehow i got my phone back to working.

Now it works with any sim card other than jio (just data works on jio) and gives pathetic battery life and slowed down experience compared to other s7 edge with same duration of use ie. 2yrs

I had plans to get new phones but didnt find s9 much appealing, i will wait till october to get my self note 9, but till then i have to use this phone.

I gave a thought to sell this phone and get some mid range Motorola phone till october as battery life is really pathetic and needs atleast 3 times charging a day.

I contacted many resellers and used phone dealers along with olx but nobody ready to buy it because of Jio issue, mostly people use jio and when it doesnt work, they dont wanna buy the phone.

Now i cant even sell this phone and cannot even use Jio on it.

Recently i read somewhere that if nand is corrupted it can be replaced along with mother board, but that costs alot.

Anyone of u got any advice to me?

If there are any other country firmware which works well with jio or any method to replace nand or mother board..

And if i have to get it done, where shall i go.

Even battery needs replacement.

* Nougat Beta never came to India. If u installed it, then it means u are on BTU CSC now.

*After Rooting, when u flash INS CSC, Volte is working.

But when u install stock firmware its not.

-->which means u are flashing a different country firmware via Odin everytime.

* U get Nand Error when u try to flash Stock firmware via odin.

Which means u are flashing an older Firmware than the one already on your phone.

After January update, U cannot downgrade Bootloader.

-->what U can do now is Upgrade to a newer firmware with INS CSC. But Indian S7E is still on DRAG firmware. It never got feb/mar security patch. So if u have manually upgraded BL and CP to DRB6/DRC6, then u are screwed.

Download phone info from playstore and post the screenshot of BL and CP u are using.

Will tell u what to do after seeing that.

This method works for Volte.

The firmware itself might be old, but the mechanism still is true.

U can do it by yourself.

-Download latest Tmobile S7E firmware for your device.

-Extract Zip

-Edit CSC.tar by replacing TM CSC contents with INS CSC.

-Repack

-Flash.

If u dont want to do any work, then u can simply take Ufirmware CSC and flash it along with new firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Xyberghost:
i got it what u wanna say U firmware has no volte support!! can u please help me out with editing csc. a little bit scared. please!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ★彡 sílvєr kíng 彡★:
Bro its too easy. U can do it by yourself.

- Download Latest Tmobile(your phone model) firmware.

-Download Latest G935FD INS Firmware from updato.

-Extract Tmobile firmware

-Look for CSC

-Extract CSC

-Cut and paste the contents of the Folder Somewhere else(leave the folder intact)

- Extract INS firmware

- Extract CSC

-Cut and paste it in Tmobile Firmware CSC.

Tools U need

-PeaZip for .tar files (unpack and repack)

- .Img Unpack and Repack tool (https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/tool-tool-unpack-repack-dat-img-v2-0-t3284806)

and then flash.

(Note: You can also use Notepad++ to Edit the package list and also Remove other CSC, Debloat default CSC Apks, Ringtones. Keep what u need and remove unnecessary stuff)

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ★彡 sílvєr kíng 彡★:
Bro U cannot change your CSC and also expect an update to arrive every month.

If u change CSC u wont get update (BL,CP,CSC Mismatch)

All firmwares whatever they may be has a particular set of system files which is needed to run Android.

If u unzip samsung exynos, samsung snapdragon, sony, htc etc etc, every phone has same set of partitions.

Likewise for all samsung devices after 2016 there exists a CSC.img included in Firmware. So u need to find it and edit it.

If its difficult for u to do it, then u should install telegram app and join this group

https://t.me/joinchat/BthXKUP8r0f9HBd8cjPFkg.

It would be easier to message in real time to solve ur issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Xyberghost:

Your posts only contains that 'u are unable to do it'

Instead of posting that it would be better if u post pics of files u have, or at what stage u have reached, at what point u need help. .. something like that!!!

I seriously will not spoonfeed u everything -_-

Exchange S7E

Hey

Is anyone willing to exchange your Knox Intact S7E with my knox void S7E?

My phone is of Gold color. No scratch on the phone. Yeah Not even a single scratch. Phone looks brand new. Its 1 and half years old.

I wanted to use Spay and S-Health(no root).

If your phone also doesn't have any scratch marks on it and U are from Banglore. Then send a private message in XDA. (I need the phone box and purchase bill ofcourse)

I will pay u 2000 Rupees for exchange.

Please someone guide me how i can root this official firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] nvrmndryo:
Before rooting, you need to know consequences.

You cannot get official updates, you cannot use Samsung pay.

Once you root then you cannot unroot. And if your phone is in warranty, it will be void.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] BOZX:
Thank you for replying.

My phone is already 1 Year 8 month old.

I Don't use samsung pay.

Yes this one is good point sammy official update. Which i will wait for the first update as they will fix bugs in the new firmware. After that i will root as their updates are not often.

Still i would love to explore before i try to instal these mods. Looks impressive.

It looks like knowingly or unknowingly you have tampered with root privileges due to which you can't officially update anymore. I was getting the same error message you got. I backed up with smart switch, downloaded entire firmware and flashed via Odin. Now on oreo, it's showing software is up to date while checking in software update. Hope so it works for you too.

The oreo update in June brought me big drain in the battery in "cell standby".

After this july update the drain numbers have been distributed to"android os" and "device idle". No improvements in battery life at all. Just a sneaky move from samsung. Still trying only 3.5 hours of SOT (was getting 4.5 with nougat).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] amey2606:
+1

Same issue with everyone it seems.

The drain was due to Cell Standby till the previous build.

It has shifted to Device Idle now.

Just barely touch the 4hrs SOT since the oreo update.

Some people are claiming that, by flashing the modem, ie CP of hong kong (G9350), they are able to get nougat levels of battery.

But, I wonder what'll happen to country specific settings like Dual Sim, VoLTE. Will they still work or depend on the new CP ?

I frankly have no damn idea. This was the exact reason I was holding back on experimenting or even clean formatting the firmware.

Just don't have the time to go through the entire transfer and setup process atm.

Will probably try clean formatting sometime later with the new oreo firmware when time permits.

If any user over here has done clean flashing or any similar thing, could you please share your experiences.?

The battery replacement is around 2-3k max. I got it replaced from the service centre, they assured me that the tapes are factory originals and it'll retain the same splash proof property.

Fast-forward 3 months (FYI:my phone is in a prefect condition, no drops or accidents), I jumped into a pool on my Bali trip, water got into and under my capacitive touch buttons. After leaving it to dry out for a week, it luckily returned to normal.
