[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] :
I have the sm-g930fd with tmo on sim 1 and att on sim 2. I can confirm that in my area band 12 works fine for lte data. Phone says 4G but that is just how the international version displays it. It is definitely LTE. But it does seem to prefer band 4. TMO signal at my home mostly sucks and I can somewhat force band 12 by simply putting on an aluminum bumper. Weird right? I assume the metal bumper is attenuating the signal. I finally got so fed up with TMO not doing anything about the signal in my neighborhood after years of complaints so I switched both sims to att. Phone actually works a lot better now. So yes band 12 works but a lot of it is dependent on the strength of the signal. I never saw an option for VoLTE or Wifi calling, neither of which I cared about anyway.

What has been your experience since? I have metro and did the same thing, and I am never getting 4G LTE where I used to get it all the time with a much older phone. I'm getting pretty terrible speed tests indoors as well. Is this normal? What can we do to improve this? My girlfriend is gonna get a new phone soon so I think I might just trade her as she doesn't have a high demand for downloads. thanks

Im using this phone with MetroPcs as well. Its the SM-G930F. My phone never says 4G or 4GLTE. I only get LTE. Whenever im on a call, I get H+. Can anyone tell me why this is? Not going to complain much about the LTE.I performed an ookla speed test and I got 30mbps down/22mbps up. I understand fully that since this being an international version, features im used to such as VoLTE and Wi-Fi Calling is no longer an option. Kinda stinks. Relied heavy in wifi calling due to crap signal in my area of Nyc. I looked at whats compatible and whats not. Sprint/Verizon = Nope. Metro, TMO, ATT = Yes. Im curious about ATT ppl using this phone. I looked up more into compatibility. Says ATT is fully compatible. Is this true?

So i thinking about buying a s7 with intent on rooting. I'd it better to get the g930f since it seems rootable and twrp? Or g930t which can be rooted but had some lag issues.

I do like that the t mobile version will have wifi calling and for sure all t mobile bands.

Your opinion?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] mrrock79:
I just recently had the sm930f. Its true, its rootable and twrp installs with no issue. The downside is losing volte and wifi-calling on that model with Tmobile/Metro/ATT. You simply will not have it. Not sure about the 930t.

Hi everyone I just wanted to point out that I was able to obtain Volte and WiFi calling on my G930FD while using "[Rom] FULL N7 Rom BASE PHA Now With VOLTE Support 9-4-16 by sac23" I just did a full wipe and installed only the rom and to my surprise all the normal speeds with the added bonus of volte and WiFi calling working and a 100% tested. Even the lte icon was similar to the tmobile one. And yes volte appeared on the screen. My speeds were 38/45 down with 20/25 up average so I think that of we can replicate whatever is working right on that Note 7 port maybe we can replicate it on a S7e rom? I Uninstalled it because it was kinda buggy and letters were too small but tmobile service was working perfect.

I noticed it's like that in general. Less bars but same signal strength. That is flashing a new modem or ROM doesn't make a difference. I compared my 930f to my 930t and speed and call quality generally the same.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] hella356:
I have been using my engineering-kernel-rooted TMo G930T since July. Having a locked bootloader and troublesome kernel to achieve root has been very frustrating, making the S7 in many ways less satisfying than the S4 it replaced. I recently picked up an International version (Exynos-based G930F) and it is SO much better than the 930T! Full TWRP/ROM support, performs noticeably better and far better battery life than the T version. With the CSC mod, any TW-based ROM (even if not baked into the ROM) can fully utilize WiFi Calling and VOLTE. I have to say, the 930F now does everything the USA S7 should have done, with the bonus of the superior Samsung CPU. If you're a ROM flasher and are considering switching, I highly recommend it. I totally regret buying the T-Mobile version, but hopefully I can sell it and recoup some of the wasted $. In a nutshell, the 930F is everything the US S7 models should have been. See the link below about how to gain TMo features on the F version:

Hi everybody... good thread here... had a few questions...

I'm running LineageOS 14.1 on my 930F, and everything is great, except I get a total signal drop quite often, if i go airplane mode on/off it comes back up, but its very consistent, and aggravating as i have to re-send a lot of messages when i don't realize it was down again. or it will drop at an inopportune moment...

I'm hoping there might be a radio update, or something simple to fix this. Speeds are always lower (my LG G3 d851 phones always get ~35 down / ~11 up, whereas the 930F gets about ~10 down / 2 up)

I can live with the slower speeds, as its adequate, but the signal dropping out completely is a pretty big problem.... any hope for a fix to this? btw i live like a mile from the T-Mobile tower, theres no good reason for the 930F to be dropping signal.

I guess i'll try:

G935F on Tmobile with VoLTE and Wifi-calling

I have the G955F and am using it on tmobile. I use BatMan-Rom V1.1.1 by Tkkg1994. He is a very responsive developer and always gets back to all your questions. Make sure you have twrp and latest bootloader then flash his ROM. He has a CSC selection tool which you also flash and it lets you select your carrier. He has all the US carriers but you just select T-mobile. The batman ROM is a ported ROM from the S8 and is working well for me ( He also has a superman rom based on the S7 edge's stock rom if you like, i came from that to the batman ROM) . VoLTE is working as well. Wifi calling is in the menu but i never use it. others in the thread have said it works. Link Below. Also i tested my speeds on a a tmobile note 4 and this device and they are the same in the same location. So speeds look good for non tmobile branded device.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] hella356:
I've found my G930F has the exact same network performance as my G930T. The International version walks all over the T-Mobile model. Basically, everything the 930T does well, the 930F does just as well, including WiFi Calling and VOLTE. Where the 930T is weak, the 930F is strong - WAY better battery life, much more responsive, runs way cooler, unlocked bootloader, TWRP, lots of kernels and ROMs too choose from (most S7E ROMs also work with the standard S7). If (like me) you like the flat S7 for its size (the S7 Edge and the S8 are too big for me as a daily driver), do yourself a favor and drop the TMo version and get the International version. The 930F is really everything the S7 should have been all along.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Palisandr:
I have a g930f and using it on Tmo USA. Works great. However, I can't find the WiFi Calling option. Where is it? Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
hella, care to elaborate? Stock or custom ROM? In your settings, get the software and baseband versions and post them, please. Also, are you quite sure Wifi calling and VOLTE are working? In this thread, all reports of wifi calling and volte is that they don't work, so this is fairly suspect.

All:

The statements: "G930F works on T-Mobile" are very lacking in information, since the SM-G930F is just the model number of the hardware, but these hardwares come with all sorts of variations of baseband/software that may or may not work well with T-Mobile!

Many people have asked in this thread what firmware (baseband) for the SM-G930F is best compatible with T-Mobile USA (baseband: the firmware that drives the radio/modem hardware), but there has been no answers to this question within this thread. There are literally hundreds of possible software/baseband combinations that could come with this international phone (SM-G930F), each one can affect cell signal performance differently on any given network, and we are all talking about that in this thread with no actual mentions of what baseband versions are working and which are not. wow! serious confusion!

Example: I bought my international S7 from Newegg in California about a year ago, and it still has the baseband and software build number (software is Android 6.0.1) it had when I purchased (I've refused updates). I'd like to install an updated OS, but possibly just update the baseband to one that is most compatible with T-Mobile USA and then investigate what OS works well. For my phone, the baseband is G930FXXU1BPJJ (which seems to be India ??) and the build number is MMB29K.G930FXXU1BPLB (Brazil? these regions are according to samsung-firmware.org).

Some in this thread are reporting their phone from regions Germany, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, etc...... so, ya, it's a MESS of confusing information.

What people really want to know about their International S7 (SM-G930F) is: What baseband and softwares are the best fit for the T-Mobile USA network?

This might need to be asked more clearly in a new post, which I may do, but I think most people don't really understand the design well enough to understand the question and what is a real answer vs a non-answer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] hella356:
I've settled in on Batman ROM, but I've flashed about a dozen different ROMs and have updated the baseband a couple of times. The network performance has remained more or less the same whether on the 930T or the 930F - I've not experienced a scenario with any ROM on the 930F where it wasn't getting reception in a location where the 930T did. Currently I'm on Batman 1.2 with baseband 930FXXU1DQF2 and Android 7.0. I have downloaded files while on a phone call, and the speed indicated that VOLTE was properly working. I've also successfully used WiFi calling at my sister's house; I have never gotten cell reception there on T Mobile with any phone, and the 930F was no different, but when I switched on WiFi, I was able to make calls. YMMV, but I have zero doubt that everything is working fine with the 930F and I stand by my previous statements that the 930F is equal to the 930T in every way, and vastly superior in several areas.

If you reread this thread, you'll see that all the reports of no VOLTE/WiFi calling are older posts. All the more recent posts are saying the same thing I'm saying. To get these working properly, you need to select the TMo CSC during ROM install, or if that isn't present, there is a separate CSC flash which does have it.

D855 - How to restore Download mode? - "secure boot error" only when starting DL-Mode

Hi there,

i wanted to install my phone (D855 32GB) from scratch, because of some problems (factory reset not possible, phone is not reset completely). Some time ago, i unlocked fastboot-mode with LAF-Toolkit. To flash a new KDZ using "LG Flash-Tool" i needed the download-mode, so i tried to restore laf.img via fastboot.exe flash. But i think i did something wrong (wrong file/version?) If i actually try to enter download-mode via volume-up button while connecting the usb-cable, i get a "secure boot error".

I can normally start and use my phone (Fulmics 4.2), i can boot into TWRP 3.0, but i dont know how to repair the download- or fastboot-mode.

- I cannot use fastboot.exe to repair laf.img, because fastboot-mode is needed

- I cannot use LG Flash Tool, because download-mode is needed

- I cannot use LGUP, because download-mode is needed

I think, i miss something. Can someone please help me me? Is there a way to repair this using TWRP? Is there a way to get back to stock completely?

When I tried to use street view, all I got was a blurred blank screen. I went back to the store and downloaded the separate Google Street View app because I assumed that that must be needed in addition to Maps.

But no. Street View still does not work.

I am beginning to think that the Chinese origin of this device means that street view is disabled.
