[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kingreo:
have a Samsung S7 Edge, with a Verizon carrier. The phone wasn't recognizing my sim network and kept on notifying I insert a Verizon Sim card.

Came across this post {GUIDE} Flashing the SM-935U firmware onto your Verizon S7 Edge and Rooting By dajmanjt, and followed it.

After successfully flashing the SM-935U firmware, the notification changed to No network connection, can't make calls, tried making an emergency call and it displays radio off.

Please, I need help!!! Need it to start recognizing my country's network (Nigeria).

Thanks

I have to replace my original S7 ege APE3 because I have ran into the dreaded "Warning: Camera Failed" error. Most likely I'll be getting a new replacement and I was wondering if the root process is still the same for the newer model?

This worked perfect for me thanks

What is the "dreaded "warning: camera failed " error?

I had this error 2 days ago. I cleared cache and it went away. Is there more to it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] 335Deezl:
I get that same error. Just clear the camera data/cache, and it'll work.

I've tried it all. Nothing worked for me so I went to Verizon and they will be sending me a new one. Decided to use one of my family members upgrades to get the Pixel since this is going to be my third s7 and it's caused me nothing expect a headahce. Never going to buy another Samsung phone, it's been nothing except trouble having to replace it three times because of hardware defects.

Question

I have the Verizon variant I have installed the U firmware looking at leaving verizon does the U firmware have the frequencies for AT&T or T-Mobile I know the Verizon variant has the two of the four bands that AT&T and T-Mobile use if not how can I get them
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] EchoX860:
So from what people are saying, Flash the U Firmware and not Root? The only reason I would Root is to get rid of Ads with Adaway especially in YouTube
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Lupi619:
So I have a few questions about putting the unlocked firmware on a S7 Edge 935V verizon phone. I know some of these have been asked but it seems there are conflicting answers on HD calling, and calling over wifi. Sorry for repeating the same question I just want some clarity to decide if it's worth it to me to switch to the unlocked firmware, which is what I would prefer, since I don't use any of the verizon apps or features other than 'My Verizon Mobile'

1) Does the advanced HD calling working on Verizon, without root? Some posts say yes and some say no.

2) What about wifi calling without root?

3) Also will mobile hotspot work without rooting?

4) will these work with root? If so how does the firmware with root compare to the stock 935V firmware?

Will I be able to get the 'My Verizon Mobile' app from the google playstore?

5) If I go to the unlocked firmware can I go back to the 935V firmware?

Just curious as these are my main concerns, and if they don't work as of now I'm not sure it is worth me going to the unlocked firmware.

Thanks in advanced. Happy to finally get this phone.

If you aren't going to root what is the point of even installing this on a stock Verizon device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] hp79:
less verizon junk and longer battery? If you root you lose Samsungpay and it also comes with bad reliability from using an unstable firmware. Isn't engineering firmware like a beta version of stock firmware?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] EchoX860:
The ENG boot used for Root is highly unreliable and comes with stability and battery issues. It's pretty much widely accepted to use the U Firmware (If you choose), but don't root

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] daniel4653:
Well if you did this on 50+ phones you have about a 98-99% success rate. I'm a bit confused, did you simply try to Odin the U firmware into your phone and it's stuck on the splash screen?

If so simply boot into download mode and refresh Verizon firmware.

I am AMAZED. Look at the lack of idle drain! Wow! Only 1.5hrs sot but I am sure I could get 5 or 6 now instead of 3 or 4! Definitely NOT rooting. Not jeopardizing this goodness. I can't even imagine what it will be in a day or two once it's settled in!

Now I'm curious to see if my oem Samsung wireless charging battery case will even need to be used! I am almost betting it will have less warmth than before. I only used mine once or twice but was careful to keep the screen off and keep it cool.

If this performance continues I will be super pleased!

Just wish my gear s2 classic had android wear!

What does the U Firmware do if you don't mind my asking?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] dajmanjt:
Um yes that sounds like it didn't work. Maybe you didn't set the permissions on the files? Was volte turned on prior to flashing the U firmware? I have a feeling that it has to be enabled before flashing....

No info on my end that I have heard.... prob not in there if I had to guess

Was volte turned on prior to flashing the U firmware? I have a feeling that it has to be enabled before flashing....

Either that or your CSC and ims files your copied over didn't have the permissions set right....

Hmm are you using the correct zip? Also did you unzip the main zip and only flash the proper zip inside?

There is an uninstall file floating around somewhere.... I'll try to find it

The U firmware gives Verizon users the unlocked firmware which is free from all Verizon bloat and includes features that Verizon had stripped out

Excellent guide. great work. I do have 1 question tho.

I am not using the verizon phone

, I have the T-Mobile Galaxy Edge 7 SM-G935T.

My question is at

Part 3: Implementing all the Verizon specific fixes (enable Verizon volte, fix wifi password saving issues, doze issues, cpu issues, VVM, etc.)

1. Download the Verizon s7 edge fix zips (there are two zips that will be flashed together in a certain order) (File 1 - http://dl.psouza4.com/android/S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip)(File 2 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591023225178488)

2. Use Flashfire (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.flash&hl=en) to flash both zips, keep the standard options that are already selected in Flashfire. Arrange the zips so that S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip is flashed first, and Verizon_VVM_Volte_Wifi_Calling_G935U_Fix.zip is flashed second. It will auto reboot after flashing both files.

3. Profit

Also it is always a good idea to change all the animation speeds to .5, which you can find under the developer options. This speeds up the phone visually, providing for a faster user experience.

*** SHOULD I DO THIS STEP SINCE I HAVE THE T-MOBILE *** ?? I just wasnt sure so I have not tried it yet.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jfriend33:

No clue. I use foxfi just fine and also just enable tethering since its only 85 cents a day and they pro rate it. Curios of your outcome and also how impacted you were with rooting.

Question to people that are running stock, and no root. How is VOLTE?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] dajmanjt:
Volte is pretty good usually. Not flawless but good. Sometimes it will randomly forget it has volte, which results in no internet on a phone call. When that happens all I do is hang up and call again and it works usually. Haven't figured out why it flakes out at times but it has not been too much of a bother for me yet. Then again, I don't make or receive phone calls every single day. Mostly text and data usage for me.
