For anyone that has 935U with APL4 (Jan 2017 version) or API3 (Oct 2016 version) that wants to go to ATT's Nougat, here's the process to get it done:

Stock API2 for Odin is about 4.7 GB extracted.

PI2 to PJ4 update is about 260 MB zip file.

PJ4 to QA6 update is about 1.6 GB zip file.

You need latest adb, and also a special patched version odin 3.12 (it'll say TEAM CC HAN .... stuff in the Odin).

The process is to do a clean Odin install (download mode by holding vol- & home & power) to AT&T's PI2 version.

Once PI2 is installed, you can do vol+ & home & power to get into recovery menu, and select install zip from adb.

From the computer, adb sideload <downloaded rom>, where <downloaded rom> is PJ4, and QA6. Each update will make your phone reboot.

So, in short, AT&T's PI2 -> AT&T's PJ4 -> AT&T's QA6 is the path to go Nougat. I wasn't going to post the links but decided to do so during lunch. lol.

Got pissed on waiting for the 935U Nougat.

For those wondering, I have a 935V by the way, had 935U with Tracfone's AT&T for couple months now.

Edit:

After using it for a day, I see idle drain is still a problem with Nougat. 1.5%/hour even with screen off, and in deep sleep.

It's using 10 times more power than a low end HTC 626s with Snapdragon 210 in deep sleep standby.

Another big problem for me is that tether doesn't work anymore as AT&T tries to check whether I paid for tether or not. Crooks. I actually have a Freedompop AT&T LTE SIM in it since a couple days ago. 935U had no problem with the native tether app. I'll have to go back to 935U once they release Nougat. In the mean time, I'm sticking with iPhone SE (much less headaches).

can i flash Part 3 zip to fix CPU, wifi,...... on AT&T s7edge ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Gster09:
I saw this question asked different times/ways in the thread and couldn't find a listed answer. I also couldn't find anyone anywhere else who had either confirmed or denied it. However, I figured I'd check to see if the SM-G935U was listed as having support for ALL of the AT&T LTE bands in the first place.

And the answer is... I'm sorry kids! Dad can't make your SM-G935V play nice with AT&T. It looks like even flashing the V-device with the U-firmware will not unlock Band 17 which is one of AT&T's LTE bands. Why? Because the SM-G935U itself does not support that band.

http://www.samsung.com/us/business/support/owners/product/SM-G935UZSAXAA

https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...y-s7-edge-td-lte-samsung-hero-2/united-states

It may or maynot unlock/support Band 30, but as I understand it, AT&T is just rolling out that band and coverage isn't universal yet anyway.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] MillerTyme:
Just wanted to give a quick update, since updating my verizon s7e to the latest unlocked firmware it has "fixed" my battery life issues, i am now at 5.5-6 hours SOT like i was back when i first got this phone and honestly not having the verizon bloat has been a very welcome addition. Process was painless, even if i end up having to wait longer for 7.0 i think its worth it. Highly recommend for anyone on the fence.

Hi

I have flashed APL4 G935U firmware to G935V. Everything is fine, phone finally can work in European networks, but this firmware don't contain Czech or Ukrainian languages. Even after I changed language using Morelocale 2 (with adb permission), a lot of texts still in English (settings, Phone, Messages etc). Is there any way to fix it, let's say, by flashig Home_CSC from Czech G935F firmware, or other?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] italbomber:
Did you flash any of the 2 fix files in the op?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Redflea:
Can you flash the Verizon fix zips if you don't root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] italbomber:
Wow! The difference between U and V is night and day. The stability and reliability and incredible. Really hoping that U sees Nougat but I won't hold my breath. It will be tough to leave U when V 7.0 comes out. My battery life is 10x better. Thanks OP for posting this and the files. Still waiting for an answer on the fix files. Thanks guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] MillerTyme:
i didnt, my understanding was those were only necessary if you root (i am not rooted)

As i said above, i believe if you do not root then you dont need to flash the verizon fixes. I know personally i have not and everything is working fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] italbomber:
Just was curious because of the vvm and other VZW crap. I installed Google voice and will run with that for now. Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Gster09:
I am happy to admit that I was right AND I was wrong about this at the same time. A little more digging brought me to this testing report, and as you can see, the SM-G935 A/V/P/T & R4 are all listed as one and the same. So that led me to believe that if the A and V variants are listed as the same phone, they must support the same frequencies... Right?

So I was wrong in my previous post: The SM-G935V will work on AT&T's band 17 (700Mhz). And just to make sure, I confirmed it myself as you can see in the screen-cap. You'll have to take my word that it was a Verizon S7 Edge. :)

However, I was also right in that if you look at the testing report, you won't see Band 17 listed as one of the bands tested. I wonder why? Regardless, it works and like I said, I've confirmed it.

Question in hopes of an an answer

So I am a Newbie, hence the name, and tried to root my Verizon S7 Edge, not knowing you couldn't because of the locked bootloader. However, I somehow managed to flash firmware which changed it to a SM-G935U instead of SM-G935V and it rolled the firmware from 7.0 to 6.0.1 and I can't figure out how to get it restored or keep it and get rid of the weird icons in the notification bar...for IMS settings or the WiFI lag and password thing...Can you or anyone help me? Let me know what information you need to help you determine what level of stupidity I performed LOL

Thanks,

Newbie1978
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] zimgir124:
You can root your phone on verizon and that was where the weird icons vame from.

To restore download the Odin files from my thread for QA2 and use ODIN to flash them like you flashed the 935U files. That'll put you back onto Verizon stock 7.0.

To fix the icons you need to root and then flash files in the OP.

Be cautious about rooting though as this can make the battery and performance suck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Newbie1978:
I've tried that but either the CP or AP files come back as corrupt and I'm at a loss what else to do....and if I can root a verizon phone then why does it say "not rooted" when I use a root checker app? Thanks alot for your help, I really appreciate it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] zimgir124:
Search for the PrinceComsy version of Odin and that will hopefully fix your error.

The VoLTE icon comes from installing the modded bootimage that you use to root. Did you flash that file?

Please help

So, I successfully downloaded and installed SM-935u over SM-935v but have been having problems rooting my phone. I've redone the process at least 5 times trying to do the ABD and SuperSU installation (and enabled developed options - usb debuggion on). I also flashed the phone with the original samsung tar file attached. Yet, the root will not install correctly. My phone does display 935u during the download screen so I know that worked at least. Root checker says "Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device.. Device: SM-G935u Android Version: 6.0.1"

Please help me out guys! I would love to have access to SuperSU and all the other rooted applications.

Make sure you do not have secure startup enabled, and also make sure "verify apps over USB" is disabled in developer settings before you run the batch script. I had trouble getting root working last night and it was because of secure startup being enabled.

I found a G935V on the ground with Marshmallow on it (Verizon-supplied firmware PI3). I factory reset and bypassed the FRP and rooted it with the engineering bootloader without any problems.

Then I flashed the G935U for Verizon firmware QD2 (nougat) - it booted into the new OS just fine!

I even successfully flashed the Virgin Mobile variant of the "U" QD2 firmware (I have a Virgin SIM and I thought the phone might support enough bands to try using it cross-carrier).

In both cases, flashing the QD2 firmware and then the engineering bootloader resulted in a bootlooping phone WITHOUT "custom" shown on the boot screen (which keeps looping). Each time I could only force reset the phone and get into Download mode and reload some firmware.

So I went back to official G935V Verizon firmware, but this time QA4 (also Nougat). Naturally that flashed just fine as it's an official upgrade for the device. However, loading the engineering bootloader ALSO BOOTLOOPED THE PHONE (and still no "custom").

Does the engineering bootloader only work for devices on pre-nougat firmware?

So I'm rather new to rooting the S7 Edge, so apologize in advance. I had followed this guide to root and experienced the horrible lag and battery drain with engineering build.

I had found some other guide to optimize the phone with free programs which helped a lot but the lag returns every so often and get annoying. Wad debating going back to stock and deal with the OTA to nougat (which will disable my tethering since still on grandfathered unlimited data with Verizon)

Just to share my experience, I own a SM-G935V (Verizon), but meanwhile I've changed to T-MOBILE US.

I'm also traveling a lot and constantly changing SIM cards. With the Verizon firmware besides having all the Verizon bloatware that I no longer need, it was always painfull to get the right APN settings and get the 3G/4G/LTE working on other networks worldwide.

I recently flashed the firmware version number PDA G935UUES4BQG1 and CSC G935UOYM4BQG1 (SM-G935U XAA) with Odin, and since than everything is working fine and no more issues with SIM cards. Verizon bloatware is gone and I've notice a big improvement on the battery life.

I'm currently in Europe using a Vodafone Sim card and as soon I inserted it, all the APN settings were automatically installed with no issues.

Looks like everything else is also working and so far I had no issues with other phone features.

Hope this feedback can help someone experience the same issues I was having before.

Thank you all.

First of all you need to download the correct stock firmware than force your phone to download mode using a jigg or just holding down vol down+ home + power buttons . As soon as odin recognizes the phone you should load the firmware and restart the flashing process fresh !!

This should get the job done !

The imei state doesn't change by the flashing process. So you can flash it and nothing will happen.
