At this point out of ideas to fix it if you can't get into download mode. Do you have the latest drivers on your pc?

You might tell them you accepted an OTA update from them and now it won't start.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Koolstr:
That is partially true. The whole reason I needed to go about reflashing my device was to try to fix a bootloop caused by an OTA update from them. Wish me luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] MrMinh:
If there were subsequent updates, flashing an older firmware will just revert it back and then it will just ota update again?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
Except I don't think you can ODIN back the old bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaxiolafm:
I did the ODIN reinstall the stock Bootloader and all 3 stock firmware files (AP, CP, CSC) and it still says Custom with the open lock on the boot screen. Am I missing something?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] DOMF:
You on the T or the U firmware? I experienced what you mentioned on the T firmware and the U firmware works so much better. Besides, unless this new update contains an unlocked bootloader (it won't) there won't be any new rooting methods.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] wolfgart:
I was talking about using stock T FW but with ENG BL and root applied... You can make all post fix you want but is always laggy and slowly than Stock T FW untached.

We only need of a native root solution on T FW.

But i know, if BL stay locked is very difficoult if [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] and other can't help us

Which file replaces the engboot with stock?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Thibor69:
I want to flash back stock

I recently tried to root my phone, but having adb issues. I will fix adb later, but phone is acting odd and I would like to flash clean stock.

USB works fine but not adb ...also my speaker volume (on the phone not the speakerphone) has lost 50% of its volume..

So for now I want to re-STOCK. Can I just ODIN Flash G935TUVS3APD8_G935TTMB3APD8_TMB.zip and reset to factory and it should be ok ?

( or do I extract that ZIP and flash each file in its own line in Odin PDA PHONE CSC ect.... )

I basically just want to get my phone pretty much just like it was last month when I bought it.

This is what I currently am running:

.

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
You ODIN each module separately. If you are using PD8, I assume you are already on PD8.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Thibor69:
Yes I load each file into its slot then flash all. Please see picture below to be sure I am doing it correct ..? I am not sure if I am on PD8 were do I find that in the about section ..?

Please help I am really stumped here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
Build number should show it - plus baseband is most likely the same. The important one is the bootlloader, which is not shown. Use App from playstore "Phone INFO" which will show all under the firmware tab. If you have a latter bootloader who couldn't flash the PD8 bootloader - it will error in ODIN. You may be able to ODIN everything else with PD8 but not 100% sure.

Get that app and check first.

Note - you can choose to run Home CSC or just CSC - which will wipe your phone including internal SC, so I would try HOME CSC first. if it won't boot, you can always do it again with the other CSC module.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Coffincolors:
I read earlier in this thread that someone bricked after flashing the boot loader (so BL in Odin)? I'm also trying unroot completely- don't mind wiping all data...I used that Phone INFO app ^you suggested and I used SamFirm tool to download what I think is the appropriate files for Odin. My question is.. do I definitely flash all 4 files? I've attached pictures to give an idea of where I'm at. I'm also desperately trying to avoid tripping the Knox counter and I'd like to remove that "custom" text from the splash screen.. Thanks for your time!

https://imgur.com/a/8KqiZ
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
Then you would not flash CS home - use the other CSC one. Note - it will also wipe your internal SD Card. You would also ODIN BL, AP, and CP. The BL is the latest, so should not cause any issues. Others who tried going back to an earlier BL have had problems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Coffincolors:
Awesome that's what I wanted to know. And basically whether or not this will overwrite the Engineering Kernel I flashed. I'm still worried that I'll trip knox, has anyone had that issue?

Edit: just read that stock roms will not trip the knox counter that's good. Now I'm wondering if this works out like it should, if I should make a dedicated unroot thread...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
It would not trip - rooting sometimes does but not here so far.

I have gone back to stock several times with no issues. Some to fix issues with custom ROM (had to go back to stock and reroot - both together takes just a few minutes) and also to get the Beta update. You should not have any issues - but be sure to use a latter ODIN version - old versions have caused problems.

I installed the Nougat OTA yesterday and hate it. Can I flash the MM firmware through Odin even though my phone isn't rooted? If so, which is the newest MM firmware available?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
PK1 I believe. If the OEM has an upgraded bootloader you may have an issue with it, but the other 3 modules should be ok.

I will add that the new UI is a piece of c__p and very unintuitive in many areas. Many people including me responded to Samsung during the Beta but were ignored.

Very understandably when you want to downgrade. A friend of mine did the same thing and I think all odin modules worked. Phone was not rooted.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] PCap79:
Great...thanks for the reply. Not sure if I have the upgraded bootloader. Just to be safe, should I just flash the other 3 modules through Odin and leave the bootlader as is?

i want to flash the stock rom without losing my data

is there any way to do so?
[General Topics] egoist6:
hi,

please advise if i am wrong with my thoughts.

i think it is useless and a waste of performance to use LNK files (at least the ms ones).

lets have a look at the calendar.lnk:

if you want to launch the calendar app, you are launching first the calendar.lnk. the lnk file points to a registry setting (mscalendar). so the launcher (or systemhandler or whatever) needs to lookup there to findout what the programm-name and the required parameters are (in this case "poutlook.exe calendar". now after a while of doing nothing effectively the system finally begins to execute poutlook.exe calendar...

so whats the point of using lnk files?

i see so many launchers, programms even tweak utilities which make use of lnk files.

e.g. if you change one of your softkeys with a tweak utility to "phone", it does the same useless thing: it points to a link file instead directly to cprog.exe.

hopefully i am totally wrong but then please give me some advise.

thx
[General Topics] Rudegar:
lnk is shortcut files

same as in windows

in windows if you want to start your program from the desktop

and dont want to copy the tons of files the exe file needs to start

to the desktop too you have a shortcut to the exe file
[General Topics] levenum:
Some more on the subject:

The use of lnk files does not slow down the loading, in fact it can make it much more officiant.

Take Skype for example: it has a large executable (several MB). If you were to place that exe under "programs" to launch it it will take the system several seconds (quite noticeable period of time) just to find the icon inside the exe so even if you were just scrolling through your programs the device would appear to hang while the icon was loading.

A solution to that (which now became official part of the program installation) was to keep the icon in smaller exe (a resource dll or just plain ico file can also be used) and the lnk will "state" that the icon is not in the main exe.

Another use of the lnk files is the one you mentioned your self:

poutlook.exe calendar

Without lnk files you would be forced to type any parameters manually every time just like in the good old dos days.

By the way, the process you described, lnk-registry-exe does not take that long on current devices.

Just try launching a given exe directly and check if you notice any difference in lag.

If anything, it is the certificate check combined with relatively slow read speeds of flash memory that make WM 5 and 6 devices look sluggish.
[General Topics] egoist6:
levenum,

thanks a lot for your time and explanation.

sure, i was aware that lnk files help you to launch more easily programs with longer command strings when you use the default launcher.

but how about a different launcher (e.g. rltoday), where you setup once your config within that launcher. would you really point to the calendar.lnk file (which points to registry, which points to an exe file) instead of typing "poutlook.exe -calendar" directly into the launching path within rltoday?

anyway, if you say that there is no time lag, the discussion is more or less of "academical nature".

thanks

oliver
[General Topics] levenum:
I am not familiar with rltoday, but it all comes down to how the programmer implemented the launcher.

There are two different commands, CreateProcess designed specifically to launch executable files and for that purpose only.

SellExecuteEx that acts exactly like a click in file explorer. The writer of the launcher has the option of which to use and I suspect they often use the second command.

The reason is simple: they want to give the user as much options as possible. If you want to bother and look up the exe and its command line, good for you, go for it. But what if you are a regular user who just wants to get that stupid icon on his today screen?

He wouldn't know or care about lnk->registry->exe. He just knows to look under windows\start menu\programs for something familiar.

Also having to interpret input of different types may be extra work so some launcher creators may want to only allow lnk and let the system understand and run their content.

That way they do not need to implement options for different icons, command line parameters and control panel applets.
[XDA Assist] Beefheart:
Hi. I'm trying to find out the simplest way of discovering if a particular Samsung phone has a locked bootloader without attempting to flash a custom kernel and seeing if it's successful. It's a Galaxy S7 Edge. I was going to use the fastboot oem device-info command in bootloader mode, but I can't for the life of me get the fastboot command to see the device, despite the fact it sees my other phones and devices. I have the latest Samsung drivers installed.

Can anyone help? I don't want to return the phone to Vodafone UK, but I refuse to keep a device for this much money that can't be rooted. I was wondering if anyone was aware of an application that will indicate one way or another.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] omgitsbrad:
Hey,

Just got this android head unit then. Can't post links but its amazon dot co dot uk forward slash "gp/product/B0126T6O1G"

Pretty sick, I noticed in the 'Installed Apps' there is a system app called CANbus. I know the radio connects to the car's CANbus because there is a box behind the head unit as part of the ISO adapter, and it supports the steering wheel keys and stuff.

Wondering if it would be possible to get access to this interface through a custom app to control other things in the car. Eg lights, windows, etc.

I know I should be able to root it, I have read in forums it is possible just not tried it yet - need to check the build number.

It may just be for the steering wheel controls, maybe the box filters out the unneccesary ones or it only supports CAN for the steering wheel controls, but I am kinda interested to see what else could be done.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] cloakinghalk:
Did you get anywhere with this? I'd also be interested in the same thing. I'm planning to get a similar headunit.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Post a link so we can see what head unit youre talking about.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] omgitsbrad:
Hi mate,

No I didn't really. I wasn't really sure how to go about it - apparently you can root some of the units (not sure if this one is included) but I didn't want to risk bricking a £280 head unit. And honestly if I were you I wouldn't bother buying the head unit at all either after having it for a while, here's why:

It takes about 30 seconds to boot each time which is a bit annoying if you just wanna get tunes on and drive off

The bluetooth quality is shocking, it sounds like you're on the phone to someone on a ****ty handsfree and drops out when you're playing tunes. Also doesn't support song information or album art over Bluetooth which is stupid.

The radio quality is **** and it forgets the stations if it's been off for a while - auto-seek doesn't really work very well either.

And the worst of all? After having it for about 9 months, I think the amp inside is basically fried. It cuts out randomly when driving or goes really quiet and crackly. I'm probably gonna sell it and just get a normal, non-android aftermarket unit so I can use my sub and all but otherwise it's definitely not worth what I spent on it. It feels like cheap Chinese knock off crap, which I kinda sussed before buying it anyway. But for real if I'd have known I'd have *steered* clear.

I mean yeah it's cool, but not 280 quid cool.

With regards to the CAN bus, the main thing I wanted to do was connect it up to the LED lights I have in the footwells and air vents, so it comes on with the rest of the car's lights. I did have some success with this by splicing one of the cables (I think it was orange?) from the CAN bus decoder box it comes with and connecting to a transistor. I guess you could splice different cables for different things, but it obviously isn't as great a solution as having a proper CAN bus interface. I'd recommend getting an Arduino and a CAN shield instead since this is going to be way more flexible for whatever it is you wanna do.

Hope this helps and let me know if you end up getting anywhere with your CAN hacking!
