Under Recommended Next Steps the link for the file "S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_Debloater_V15.zip (MD5 hash 4DED5D7B09BB7672723AAA77F395BC87) (any Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge)" is broken, can someone upload it ?

I just finally achieved root on my S7 Edge. (Only took me 2 damn days :p)

I too noticed the link was broken for the debloater.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] jruka:
I think the Debloater is not good for this version anymore. Thought it was for the very first attempt if my memory is correct. Fyi.

I didn't run it. I did it manually thru tibu and phone has been stable for about a year I think. Only issue is I have to push original su when I goof and let it update, but it takes longer to boot pc than to push.....

Failing....possible outdated files?

Sprint Galaxy S7 Edge

I'm getting errors and am unable to unroot. Maybe this isn't needed... All I'm wanting to do is be able to use Snapchat but their new security feature detects root. Will this even fix my issue? 'Suhide' seems to not work anymore from the comments I'm seeing.

Is the original post for the Sprint Edge 7 Edge just an old update? Does anyone have the most recent one? lol

Anyways here are the logs from Odin and my phone. I used PrinceComsy as the original was giving me some error message in another language once I first opened it.

Hi guys...a little help would be appreciated. I have an S7 flat G930V from verizon. It has MM 6.0.1 and FW PF2 on it. I am now rooted but I am having the issue where wifi connections won't save passwords and reconnect automatically. I see from the OP that there is a "fix" file that includes wifi fixes (this one specifically) but the link is broken. Any help would be appreciated.

[EDIT] - looks like psouza4's server is broken...can someone please provide the verizon fix v15.zip file called out in the recommended next step section. I don't care about the bloatware file...I do this manually anyway.....Thanx

[EDIT2] - Downloads working today...its all good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] ChiquiNL:
Actually the downloads started working again but what happended to the 3 different debloater scripts I found is that even though with flashfire the scripts runs successfully I see no changes when the phone restarts. Maybe that is because it doesn't work for this version even though no errors are poped up ?

The download worked for me as well but no changes to the phone even though the script said it worked. Did it actually worked for you ? If yes, what version do you have ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] redhawk0:
Nope...didn't work...went through the manual process of fixing the wifi password issue using the BuildProp Editor....look at the bottom of the Recommended Next Steps section.

It says its only for PE1...it ran for me on PF2 but it didn't fix the issue.

The only problem that I have now is that the Service for Verizon doesn't start automatically...until I make a first phone call after a reboot I can't receive calls or get SMS text....once I make a call it connects to Verizon Wireless and works fine after that. This issue has been floating around for quite some time according to the research that I've been doing all day.

Hi, everything's fine after ROOT and fix with S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip. Thanks a lot for your good job!

My phone is a SM-G930V (Verizon) VZW converted to SM-G930F (I bought it like that) with Android 6.0.1 and it is working ok with networks here in Spain (GSM not CDMA) but the firmware in it is a mixture of firmwares so there's no way to get an OTA or Smart Switch upgrade:

Bootloader: G930VVRU4API3

PDA: G930FXXU1BPIA

CSC: G930FXXU1BPIA

BASE BAND: G930VVRU4API3

I have a complete Flashfire backup just in case things went wrong.

Is it posible upgrading my phone to Android Nougat 7.0 and keep it working with GSM networks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] StolidSentinel:
This is not for Android 7.0 Nougat. But I didn't figure that out until I tried to install everything and got the constant IMS SERVICE crash. Reflashed stock nougat, reflashed Nougat_S7_Flat_EngBoot.tar just to be safe, and ran "Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V1". Now root. Jesus I hate Nougat, but can not downgrade.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] bikeracer4487:
Did you ever find the solution to this? I have the same issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] StolidSentinel:
You somehow flashed a newer version of Android, and it physically burns an eprom in your phone. The older Android is no longer allowed to be flashed to the phone.

I don't know of a way around that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] bikeracer4487:
Ah shoot, well, I managed to download updated stock firmware files, so I fixed my boot loop, but the root files I can find all seem to be for pre-update S7's. Is there any way to root after updating?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] bikeracer4487:
I'm on BQH1, and I actually did manage to find a working root method for Nougat by googling around. Unfortunately, I did all this because I wanted to be able to create a hotspot using my work data plan, which apparently doesn't include the ability to hotspot....and it seems that there actually aren't any working methods for this, unless someone can link me...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] StolidSentinel:
I just downloaded "chainfire Hotspot control" and it's not working. I haven't had a chance to troubleshoot it yet. Let me know if you get it solved first!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] bikeracer4487:
Don't think that app is meant for actually circumventing the provisioning check... That said, what I ended up doing was grabbing the most recent stock firmware files for the SM-G930U (I used this one specifically: https://samsung-firmware.org/download/Galaxy S7/O448/VZW/G930VVRU4API3/G930VVZW4API3/) From what I hear, it disables wifi calling and visual voicemail, but after I flashed that firmware I was able to hotspot natively with no issues.

Edit: yes I realize that it was only made available like a week ago, but I'm dumb and didn't look both ways before crossing the street, as it were.

Just tried going back as far as BQA2 (March 2017) and the method still doesn't work. I might try going further which would be me into Android 6.1 territory, but that's not so bad if it works. An Android 7 root would be best for a variety of obvious reasons.

I am trying to root my Samsung Galaxy 7 using the method detailed in PERMANENT ROOT on page 1 one this thread.

Need Stock Firmware for SM-G930U (heroqltechn/snapdragon)

I'm panicking a bit. Tried following this guide not realizing until it failed and I read deeper that this was for Marshmallow, not Nougat. That led me to another guide, I can't remember which (I started this at like 9 am today) which led to me having the IME error constantly. To fix that, I flashed the stock image ... but for a different version of the 930U and I don't think it was the original as Google Backup and Restore (or whatever it was called under the settings menu) is now gone and I'm sure there are other things I haven't noticed that are also off. I've found a couple sites that all point to the same two or three mirrors, all of which say they will take several days to download and they fail within a couple of hours. Can someone please help me? I just want to get it back to the way it was and I realize now I should have have a stock image before doing all this but I hadn't done this sort of thing since my Moto X and I forgot.

BQH3 (G930UUEU4BQH3) The phone seems to work and not have any obvious problems (its just been on wifi so I'm not 100% on that) except that it's missing the Backup and restore Settings menu and it feels like other things are gone/different from stock, I just can't remember what. It's unlocked, I currently have service through Mint (wholesaler)

Thanks anyway. I'm thinking now that maybe the only thing wrong is that it is missing the Backup & Reset menu under Settings. So I guess I'll just try looking more to see if anyone else has had that problem and how to fix.

Thanks for your responses man, I'm aware DL mode is BL in recovery, but when I try to go into recovery it goes straight into a blue screen with a white android that simply say "installing" it's not actually recovery. It tries to install for about a minute, it fails, then it goes straight to another blue screen that say "caution" with a yellow android that has red X eyes, (looks like he's dead). Phone freezes, it is then soft bricked. I do the procedure to get back to recovery again and I have 3 options... Factory Reset, normal boot (which doesn't work, goes straight back to caution screen), or safe boot (also goes back to caution screen). At this point I have to do a factory reset. I cannot get into recovery anymore, i might be screwed. Thanks for the help though!

Cannot unroot because of mismatch. Any help..please

I downloaded the stock firmware file provided by psouza4 for S7 Edge At&T (G935AUCS2APF2) but Prince Comey Odin failed the process. My firmware is PD1 which was released in April of 2016. I could not find the firmware anywhere to download off of.

So my question is how do I revert to stock then? Is there any way to revert to stock (G935AUCU2APD1--April 2016)? That is what I had out of the box, before I rooted it and installed flashfire, SuperSU, etc.

Hello,

Seeking a little advice here on what I should do next.

I have an SM-G930V with Android 7

Before I found this guide, I tried another guide I googled, which may have caused some weird issue.

It was the same method using odin, but I tried to flash a file called: S7_Qualcomm.tar

It was supposed to flash TWRP, but it didn't. It did something because the phone shows "Custom" under an unlocked Lock Icon at the very first boot screen.

So then I found this thread and followed the first post and it flashed successfully.

However when it rebooted, it would go the first screen where it shows "Custom" vibrate and reboot and keeps doing the same thing.

In a moment of desperation, I flashed the S7_Qualcomm.tar back on and now at least I can boot the phone back up and get into it.

Not sure how to proceed.

The baseband in about phone is G930VVRU4BQF2.

In the first post, in the return to stock section, there is a download to a stock image with the number: G930VVZW2APE1.

Can I use this? I'm not sure how these builds interact.

Can someone please give me a pointer on how to proceed next.

Many Thanks

Edit: I did find the right FW on updato that came with the phone. The question remains, do I flash it and start over or am I headed down a bad path?
