Hi, Cant find a tutorial for flash g930U fw on g930v model. I'm placed outside USA and google's outcome are slightly ... "weird" and unaccurate :eek: for english searches.

Could you provide a tutorial link? Any special warning or advice?

Should I repartition (flashing .pit file)

I'm newbbie om samsung, just got familiar with Odin and regular flashing, but ain't with flashing from "branded roms" to unlocked ones

Thanks in advance!

Hi I have a SM-g930V in australia and its no good, need to get onto SMG930U

how do i know which version i need to flash to my device? i have flashed 1 already that give me a SW REV check error

I am guessing this one but please tell me if wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] MarZoe:
Hi, where did you get so many U Firmwares?

I'll advice you that flash same PDA version you are in g930v, ie:

If your actually g930v PDA ends in "APL2" , flash it g930u firmware that also ends in "APL2". If it ends in "API3", then flash it a 930U ended in "API3" too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Arcolog2:
Just wanted to drop my 1 cents in here. I bought my mom a new S7 and wanted to get it rooted to have native hotspot work. Well, after reading all the lag stuff, I decided against it and she'd just continue using foxfi. But, I saw this thread and upgraded the sm-930v firmware I believe it was on APH1. Now I installed APL1 from sm-g930u vzw version, no bloatware, no problems at all, native hotspot working. There are some negative nancy's in this post, but it's working great.

I booted to factory recovery and did factory reset a few times, installed the firmware with Odin, booted to stock recovery again and did factory reset a few times more. Let the phone boot up and kernel stabilize. Installed everything and it took a while for battery usage to be normal after apps optimizing and all that. It's running like a champ and no verizon crap.

I don't care about nougat for her phone, we just need a phone to work flawlessly with hotspot. Will I have to worry about updates being pushed while on a U firmware?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] w.tzifos@gmail.com:
thansk mate, yeah i got it working, i am now on PL2 and the phone is a lot better but it could still improve, eg: the wifi constantly bugs and loses connectivity to the access point. my microphone is all distorted and is not clear when talking on loudspeaker.

not sure if these are known bugs.

Also another question, from this SM-g930u firmware i am now running, am i able to flash a sm-g930F firmware i as i belive the settings would be best for my country and for general performance of the device

much appreciated for the follow up.

Hi Guys any chance of getting the baseband from the SM-G930F on the SM-G930U firmware, my network is terrible and constantly drops out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] tedyun:
Maybe you should check your APN setting?

SM-G930F uses Exynos while SM-G930U (or all other US variant) uses Snapdragon so their firmware won't be compatible. You can check your frequency here - https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...g930u-galaxy-s7-td-lte-samsung-hero/australia

If the hardware isn't there I don't think there's anything that can be done..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Arcolog2:
SM-G930U got an update on March 27th to QC1. It's still 6.0.1 MM. Phone actually notified me. Wasnt sure how it would get the updates since we're carrier deficient. Anyone know what's changed? Just modems and security stuff?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] CVertigo1:
I just stumbled upon this as well. The latest update is still MM. I was really banking on the new update being Nougat. I guess making a G930U ROM is out of the question for right now.

Ok so I flashed G930UUES4BQG1 onto my 930V. Everything seems to be working but im not getting LTE when i know for a fact I have 4 bars just before i flashed. I also have a weird Sprint OMADM message that its checking device status.

Now, I went to Sammobile and downloaded the G930UUES4BQG1 firmware with the verizon option. Did I miss a step somewhere? Aside from that I am getting 4G internet and everything does seem to be working. Would a quick csc flash from the original verizon package fix this? I really want to run the U firmware.. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] pyraxiate:
Well in case anyone else had this issue, I downloaded the latest U firmware specific to Verizon from updato.com and used the standard CSC included ( not CSC home ). LTE is showing and no more weird Sprint error

Currently running G930UUEU4BQH3 ( released 9/4/17) and all is well! No more Verizon crap yay!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] uknow:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] *Detection*:
How is someone else uploading the exact same file going to help you extract it?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] uknow:
I'm thinking the 2 sites dl is to slow and correcting the file if some one has dl it and already extracted it then maybe they can Rezip it then upload this would help not only me but others that have or may have this same problem

Ps I have most updated winrar,7zip and winzip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] mslezak:
For those that need the software above use the program SamFirm: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647 (I'm using version 0.3.6) and type in Model = SM-G930U and Region = VZW, click Auto and Check Update - it pulls back the correct ROM in this post. It is actually the same download if you put in any other Region code like XAA SPR ATT etc.

Note I tried this software and had to also download the SM-930V variant... I needed to flash not only the CP file (modem settings) but also the CSC (region settings) from the Verizon branded software in my case it was CP_G930VVRS4BQH1_CL11447542_QB14530063_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 and CSC_OYM_G930UOYM4BQH3_CL12006196_QB14665393_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 otherwise no data would connect regardless of settings and no phone activation was possible even using the hidden network menu. Finally gotten it up and running after hours of troubleshooting.... To download the Verizon version: SamFirm settings Model = SM-G930V Region = VZW, then check Manual and type: PDA = G930VVRS4BQH1, CSC = G930VVZW4BQH1, and PHONE = G930VVRS4BQH1. Just burn those Verizon files G930V I mentioned CP and CSC at the same time you burn the G930U version of AP and BL. Works fine with stock Odin v.3.12.3. Hope this helps some people with headaches from trying to get a G930P working on an unlocked version and on Verizon!

I would think that it would be a good idea to have this and the stock firmware on this firm anyways for peeps wanting to return to stock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] mslezak:
How did you get the 930U software to work on Verizon?

What did you do to get this working? I burned the 930U VZW variant identical to yours and it doesn't let me set the mode to LTE\CDMA just LTE\3g\2g - I think that's the issue. I couldn't find the "hidden menu" to change this setting either. Gave up and installed Verizon bloatware which works but drains the battery and is slow... Any advice is appreciated.

You can flash the U version over the V no problem (and vice versa). SamFirm gives you the latest build which is Nougat 7.0.0

Hi, everybody. A friend of mine is stuck with no wifi, so no mac address registered and no imei.

I need somone to check for if the file containing this info is nv_data.bin or .nv_data or anything like this because I can't any file close to this one. I found a method to restore from nothing but I need I think a file called nv.qcn. And I could manualy editing the file to add my own imei and mac address.

Can someone help me?

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
You need to be careful with files like those. Have you tried a factory reset? Using MifFlash doesn't wipe data, if that's what you're worried about. It will probably be a good idea to backup to PC or microSD card, though.

After resetting and still no IMEI, I'll suggest this guide. It helped me restore mine when it accidentally got wiped a while back.

I have recently purchased a Hermes (Dopod 838Pro) under the impression that it had a flashing problem with the latest Schap's firmware WM6 and had never been opened, however, I suspect more than that after receiving the item now so was hoping that the more experienced in the forum might be able to help me diagnose the problem.

The symptoms are that it will not start unless the unit is twisted, starting up the screen will look fine, then develop lines, fade across the screen etc until you get the subtle twist just right.

Upon taking the unit apart, it seems that applying pressure to the tin plate to the right of the base of the display connector on the mainboard fixes the problem. I have a attached a picture of the area, it is the area of the Yellow circle. Ensuring that the display connector is correct does not seem to solve the problem on its own. The yellow area needs to be basically clamped with one finger on battery and other on the point on the tin plate (yellow circle) and pushed together.

I have applied the current Hard-SPL v7 just in case, but would like any suggestions in diagnosing further particularly to confirm/deny if it is likely a mainboard problem and if so if it is a relatively common problem and can be fixed without a mainboard replacement.

Also if anyone would recommend reflashing, what you would recommend reflashing with to be most reliable to eliminate possiblities while diagnosing this problem. I am in Australia on the GSM vodafone network.

Alternatively if anyone has a mainboard for a Hermes for sale please let me know.

Thankyou for any help.

Update: For some reason I am now unable to get anything on the screen. It is black with very faint backlight when turned on. Connecting via USB to pc however, gives full access to device so it must be booted up to WM6 I am guessing. While in this state I have flashed to the HTC from for Australia Vodafone and Optus WM6 - No change from before update.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] monsieurazizx:
RN3P Kenzo, ROM is Global Dev 6.8.18.

I unlocked the bootloader officially (using the code and the MiFlashUnlock tool). I then used ADB to flash Cofface TWRP which did not work. These are the steps I used:

First I booted into fastboot.

Then I did this in Minimal ADB 'fastboot flash recovery twrp.img'.

The message was

sending 'recovery'

OKAY

writing 'recovery'

OKAY

finished.

Next I did 'fastboot reboot'.

Then I tried to get into TWRP recovery using the MIUI update app. Didn't work. Any help? Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] andersonaragao:
Try this, "fastboot boot twrp.img" NOT fastboot flash boot, just "fastboot boot twrp.img"
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] monsieurazizx:
OK. It boots into TWRP. But my question is, will I have to use "fastboot boot twrp.img" every time to boot into TWRP? That would be a hassle, but if that's the only way, I'll just deal with it.

Thanks though, it was nice to know the recovery image was working.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] madkiran:
No. You dont need to fastboot everytime. As you once booted into TWRP from "fastboot boot twrp.img" your recovery is perminantly TWRP. You can boot into by pressing the key combination or from the updater app..

Happy Flashing
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] drmuruga:
Try fastboot reboot recovery but if not boot into recovery don't boot into system and reboot recovery via key combination. If you reboot system stock recovery erase twrp.

Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.

B) Prevent TWRP From Getting Over-written

After the TWRP gets flashed, disconnect the cable from the phone.

Hold power button + volume up buttons till phone gets restarted.

When the Mi Logo shows up, release the power button & keep holding the volume up button.

Release the Volume Up button after TWRP logo shows up.

If the language is in Chinese, select the right box, & select English.

Check the box & swipe to allow modifications.
