After a few days of battery cycles, my battery has been draining very very quickly. Less than 3 hours unplugged with next to no use my battery is at 50%. I dunno what's up. Just installed gsam to see if I can pin point the problem but if this persists, I'll have no choice but to revert back to stock. Anyone else experiencing similar battery performance or is it just my device?

Edit: I reverted back to stock and now everything is back to normal now as far as battery loss. Too bad. I was really digging the extra space! YMMV folks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpcdeux:
Same. Back to AT&T FW, battery is back to normal sadly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] brianray14:

This file does work on sprint s7 i am fully on smg930u not smg930p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Longcat14:
To anyone having enhanced LTE/VoLTE problems, the S7 edge thread for the U firmware has a fix for this, but IIRC it requires rooting, changing an xml file, then flashing back to stock to remove root and keep the fix (weird fix).

Also heard that checking re-partition when flashing the stock firmware fixes the calling issues, but I only saw one confirmation of that. Either way, check out their thread for the fix, I can't for the life of me remember what page it was on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] UltraSubZero:
NO 4G LTE

I flashed my G930P to G930U to use with my AT&T sim. It's great and all but I can't get any data. I get texts/calls but no mobile data. It automatically programmed the "NXTGENPHONE" apn settings and I get absolutely no data with that. I tried this "ATT HSPA+" apn settings and it does work and give me HSPA+ but that really blows because I want LTE. I know I can get LTE in my area. Is there something wrong I'm doing? Can I flash it to G930A even though it is originally G930P and if so would this fix it and where could I find the files to flash to G930A?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] brycegreen:
What is the difference between this rom and stock? I'm on a G930A and about to root, it looks like I could use this if I brick?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] lukemarcondes:
The G930U ROM is the unlocked ROM. So that means no bloatware (aside from Samsung bloatware) and no AT&t boot logo. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe there is also free tethering.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] popmeeye:
did a factory reset then flashed my 930a with this 930u using the modified odin from root forum. Rooted. debloated/fixed engineering kernel issues and DEEP debloated using scripts from psouza4 (the man is the S7 GOD). Phone is a MACHINE. Software recognized my straight talk AT&T card without programming APN (930a software didn't). Yes it tethers unlimited data now. Full functionality as a daily phone with better battery life. I think the key to solve most the problems I'm seeing in the forums for this flash is doing the factory reset before you try anything. Can't thank psouza4 enough for the S7 fixes script.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] .dan:
aha, i found the setting in the phone app. i have not tested it. i can confirm that tmobile VOLTE does work though. sprint variant on tmobile network.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TehPirate_:
Sprint variant running on the AT&T network as well running the U firmware. I have LTE working fine, even better than I was before. Check the band compatibility with the G930U compared to the G930P and compare that to the bands in your area.

With your question regarding the G930A firmware, in theory you can. I wouldn't recommend it though because AT&T locks down their devices more and could render your device bricked. A member flashed Verizon firmware to the G930U and reported it worked but no evidence. I'm speaking solely off of what I've read my time lurking these forums, not from experience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpcdeux:
No bloat, smoother, free tethering, battery life isn't as great to me and once it goes from H or no service it has trouble getting back onto lte. I have to toggle airplane mode
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TehPirate_:
Personally haven't had these issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] VenomMOD:
Battery life is actually really good. I get 5 hours of Screen on time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] popmeeye:
FYI, running 930u firmware on 930a (straight talk AT&T plan) rooted with the root fix as well as deep debloat. I'm able to run on Band 30 (WCS) in Miama. Seeing 44.18 Mbps down and 13.58 Mbps up according to tampa server and 42.09 down and 7.23 Mbps up with Miami server. I was starting to hate this phone (had lots of bug issues and random reboots on barebones AT&T stock) till the last couple weeks. Thanks XDA developers.

Every time i root after I flashed this rom my phone service stops working..any ideas? I disable all the apps I'm supposed to but it stops working

I stop receiving calls on my AT&T S7 so I had to call AT&T 2 re-register the network now my flash back to stock with the latest firmware and I can get voice over LTE calls going crazy here anybody having the same issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] nnguyen:
I wonder the same thing myself. I have a 930V - flahsed to a 930U. But i want 930T firmware because of wifi calling. anyone got wifi calling to work on tmo on 930u?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] fernandesx:
Please, how can I add portuguese language in G930U, once that MoreLocale2 not worked?

Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] .dan:
yes. i have a 930p, flashed to 930u, running on t-mobile. VOLTE and wifi calling both available and functioning.

VOLTE is part of settings-mobile networks

wifi calling is buried in the phone app settings
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
I just installed this firmware on my G900A, I had to use the modified Odin from the root thread (i also rooted) . I have read through this thread and gathered a little info. I flashed the V15 fix and debloat from the Verizon forum but is there any other info that i need to know about that could be useful ruining this firmware that anyone wants to shed on me.

Thanks

No visual voicemail if you use it. That was a caveat I didn't realize.

To root the 930u firmware, do you have to install engboot?

---------- Post added at 04:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 AM ----------

Sorry to keep asking. Do I need to return to stock from rooted verizon s7 to install 930u firmware?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
No you do not have to return to stock (at least i didn't). But you will need to do i data/ factory reset, then flash the U firmware, then flash the engboot, then root. Or at least that's the steps i took.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] alexpoe:
I tried doing a factory reset and it failed. So I am flashing the 930u firmware as we speak.:fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
Cool deal. When i did it, i factory reset from stock recovery then booted into the bootloader right away. I tried using the Odin version that is included in the zip for the 930U firmware but it failed so i had to use the version that is in the rooted thread.

But I'm liking this firmware so far. No major hiccups. But i also use the guide in the Verizon thread for fine tuning the phone and also flash a V15 zip also from the Verizon "root guide" thread and all is running awesome right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] .dan:
has anyone received any security updates for this firmware? i'm still on May 1 2016 security patch level. running on tmobile

I freeze the security updates so i don't know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] bLueBry:
hey sir, So i have a sprint g930p that is unlocked. So to remove the bloatware I just flash the files from the 1st page of this thread ? Also i'm not receiving or able to send MMS over Wifi, will flashing to this firmware fix it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TehPirate_:
1. Yes, you can flash the firmware from first page. Did it on my G930P

2. I'm not aware of that issue; never encountered it myself
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpcdeux:
There's been no further updates to this release yet. So, this is the MOST CURRENT firmware for the UNLOCKED US Variant S7
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] .dan:
Mms over WiFi is typically carrier specific feature. By default mms requires cellular data connection and proper apn settings. It's possible that when you insert your Sim card into an unlocked firmware that the phone might install this carrier specific feature but I'm not certain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] bLueBry:
thanks sir, i was using the default messenger app which i now know is complete trash. once i switched to google messenger, my MMS worked fine.

Can u point me in the direction to root the 930u firmware?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Brickman221:
Do I have to be pre-rooted in order to flash this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
To root the 930U firmware, follow the directions in the root thread in this forum. It is the same as long as you are on a qualcom processor.

---------- Post added at 02:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ----------

No. Just download the files and flash with odin.

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/how-to/how-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039

I did permanent root and recommended next steps. I did the deep debloat too, but you better know what you are doing with that one. It turns off lots of apps and features (such as alarm clock) that you have to know how to turn back on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] shooterlgk:
So i tried it but once i rooted it, my phone shut off all services again. Maybe its because i havent paid the phone off or it might b cuz its sim locked or something, idk i give up tho, guess I'll stick to stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] popmeeye:
I did forget that i did a SIM unlock a while back. Paid $45 to an online place after AT&T ran me in circles both online and with their customer service. I wanted to use the phone when I was in Costa Rica. Don't know if that would help you or not. Make sure you do a factory reset from the boot menu, then flash 930u, then root, then debloatfixv15, then optional debloat. That order.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] montz_one:
Thanks XDA!!!! FW loaded in G930P, running excellent!! Battery life increased 2.5 times.....18hrs on and still has 50%!!!!, using it in Mexico with Telcel LTE connected with no problem APN was created automatically!! No annoying sprint activation messages!!!

I was about to sell it until I found this awesome guide and G930U fw.

Is Ur s7 sim unlocked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] montz_one:
Yes, it was unlocked when it was 'P' and continues to be unlocked now that it is 'U'
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] 36dbldz:
So I can just add these files a to my unlocked sprint s7, not root it , and pop my att sim in and be good to go?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
I would suppose you could do it without rooting afterwards. I rooted mine right after it booted up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] 36dbldz:
I got it for my wife. That's why I don't want to root it. Is it a stock firmware or a custom ROM. If stock would she still get otas from sprint or att?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
It is stock. If you don't know what the firmware is I'd read more in this thread or google what it is before i just start flashing It is Samsung firmware. That's it. No carrier bloat no carrier anything. You won't recieve otas being as this firmware is not carrier specific. If there is something that the carrier offers on there phones and it is specifically for the sprint version, chances are that it will not be in this firmware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] 36dbldz:
I did read it. This thread was linked from a sprint s7 on ATT thread. They said this was the Samsung unlocked firmware they pushed out. I ask about ota just about security patches. Will Samsung push them out rather than carrier. Sorry for my ignorance

I just trying to have my wife's unlocked sprint s7 work better on ATT as some things don't, and get rid of the hands free activation. If you have any suggestions please let me know or if you can point me in the right direction
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
I'm not sure about any otas or anything like that. I always root my phone soon as possible and freeze any and all possibilities for updates. Once there is a custom ROM out I'll flash it and see how i like it. Once i find a smooth nice running room i normally sick with it and just update the rom as the dev does.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ad78:
thanks for this, I just unlocked my sprint variant and loaded this. all sim card (Verizon,att) worked

Wish there was a way to get wifi calling on att using this FW.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Skizzy034:
No I tried everything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
While WIFI calling is a nice feature, how often do you actually need it? I mean i live in the sticks and i have 1-2 bars of service at any given time at my house, that being said, how good do you think my Internet is? If your somewhere where the Internet is good enough for WIFI calling, then chances are you service is decent or the same as it would be in WIFI. I would prefer to have WIFI texting (not having to use an app to achieve) rather than calling. I think that would be more usable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lurtzimus:
Lmao. So true.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpcdeux:
I work in a correctional facility that gets NO SERVICE due to cinder block construction so WiFi calling/Texting over our fiber internet has been wonderful when I need to make a call or text another officer or supervisor. Not to mention flipping on airplane mode then Wi-Fi to use Wi-Fi calling doesn't impact battery life NEAR as much as sitting searching for service. Not to mention messaging over wifi hauls ass!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
Yea i can see where that makes since. I have used WIFI calling before (i think the app was viber or something like that) but the lag was horrible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpcdeux:
The nice thing about the stock WiFi calling is that it's also text and MMS over wifi. Sends fast **** which I really like.

Many thanks for this [MENTION=5839251]Ae3NerdGod[/MENTION].

I have have tried flashing this several times however to my G930A, and keep coming across a problem. First, the AP file said that there was a problem with the md5, that the binary was invalid. I tried removing the .md5 part of the extension, as suggested on other threads for people having this problem with Odin, and this allowed the flash to begin. However, each time it hangs right at the end on "system.img.ext4", and then eventually fails.

Reading around it sounds like this may be a problem with the PIT file. Is this correct? Could anyone offer some advice on how I could get around this issue? I have factory resetted the device, re-flashed the G930A pf2 firmware, and attempted to flash the G930U several times, but I still receive the same problem.

Many thanks in advance.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] codala2012@gmail.com:
Have you tried re-downloading the file? I was having the same issue, re-downloaded, and boom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] FilthyFord:
If the md5 file don't show correct then you probably have a bad download. Good practice not to flash anything til you check the md5 and verify it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ghter:
Thanks for the suggestion [MENTION=7567936]codala2012@gmail.com[/MENTION] and the advice [MENTION=5880304]dirtydodge[/MENTION].

I tried downloading again, from both sources, but kept running across the same error. Finally, I tried downloading the file directly onto my friend's windows system which I was using to run Odin (previously I had been downloading the files on my own linux system and transferring them via USB). This time, it succeeded! Could such a large file have been compromised while transferring it between the three different file systems (ext2 - Fat32 - ntfs)? Or did I just get lucky with the download this time? Just some noob ponderings on my part...

Anyway, glad to have this firmware up and running finally. I am using my G930A outside of the US, so the AT&T bloatware was doubly superfluous from my perspective. Thanks to everyone who has made this possible.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] JediDru:
I am stock with some things disabled. I would recommend this- factory reset and start the device as new one if you can. Disable the bit of bloat like Google Drive etc. Turn off location reporting in the google now app setting. Then go to the battery life saving thread in the Verizon s7 edge forum. Disable the bloat on that list. You should be good to go at that point.
