im still googling until now to find the right custom rom for my devices

and thanks again for your friendly thread. :D

The network lock is separate from the rom. Continue with Google.

Would ROMS built for the J700 F/H/M be compatible with the J700T? There is not many ROMS built for the J700T, while there is a bunch for the J700 F/H/M.

The only difference I see in the phones are the different carriers so you would think that they would be compatible with each other.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] PoseidonKing:
I don't think so. I had my old Galaxy J-5 fried due to flashing ROM not meant for my device. I would suggest not doing it if it is your primary device. But go ahead if you're a development nut and wanna try it anyways. If you try it and it works, update your post here so others can know.

I have many questions with this bootloader. I'm new to this things. Sorry. Btw I have the J700F J7(2015) model.

1. Is there any way to know if my phone is in locked bootloader or unlocked?

2. I'm planning to install the Pixel Experience rom and I've read that i must unlock the bootloader first. I know that I must be from stock rom. Then I will install the TWRP, then root, then proceed to flashing the rom. In this process, where will I unlock the bootloader? Do I need it to be unlocked before I install the TWRP?

3. I know that I can google it, but is there an easiest way to unlock the bootloader?

Sorry, I have many questions. :D
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] dodo2244:
Hi. I have your exact same model ?

To unlock the bootloader, enable developer options - in settings, about device, software info. Tap build number 7 times.

Now go back to settings, developer options - enable OEM Unlock. Also enable USB Debugging.

Done.

Are on marshmallow? If yes, make sure SuperSu is version 2.78 or newer.

Tip - make sure to backup your fon first as soon as you install TWRP. BEFORE rooting.

Keep 2 copies of this backup.

To install the Pixel rom you must already be on stock marshmallow

Stuck on bootloader

I rooted my MetroPCS J7 after flashing TWRP on it. Then, I flashed a custom rom onto it. "Walker Blue" I believe, it worked well but was buggy. So, I tried flashing "midnight black" (something like that) by the same developer. It locked the phone on bootloader. When I tried flashing the stock rom it was unsuccessful and gave an error of "COM Lock". Any help? Thank you in advance.

hello everyone, mcdumba** here. i softbricked my sm-j700m and i cannot find the correct firmware for it... I keep getting dm-verity verification failed. Apparently all the firmware is from different parts of South America... this phone is from Amazon lol.

Install this app from the Play Store.... it will help you with info about your device

Download what you need (version 8 maybe ?? ;)

Make sure to backup your messages, pics, call logs etc before flashing anything.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] dodo2244:
A safer way for you to update is thru the OTA (official Update) under Settings, About Phone.

where can I find latest official ROM?

I have a Samsung Galaxy J7 SM-J700F and am following the guide from Samsung Odin root instructions. I want to find the latest stock ROM for my device, which I am supposedly able to find on https://www.sammobile.com. My device is here: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-j7/specs/#SM-J700F but no download for the ROM.

There is a stock ROM in this forum, but it is not the latest one: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j7/development/official-stock-rom-j7-t3821798

My phone does not allow use external SD-Card as internal memory, which is why I need root privilegues. Why can I not download my ROM from SAMSUNG.com? Can someone help?

---------- Post added at 09:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

I think I can use TWRP to create a system image backup from my phone. Is this correct?

Need help with Galaxy J7 Crown

I'm trying to help my mom fix her phone. A few days ago she was taking a video with it and she said she sat it down for a few minutes, but after she picked it back up and went to unlock the screen, it was asking her for a password. She only uses the swipe option because it's easier for her than using a password, pin or pattern. She tried a few passwords anyway but nothing worked. It seems now that her only option is to do a factory reset. Is there anyway to do that without having to unlock the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] J7User:
Yes, you should be able to access recovery mode like usual. The first thing you should do is check if you are trying to enter a password for your phone or for your SIM card. If you forgot the pin for your SIM a factory reset does not help.

To recover from lost SIM pin, use SIM puk. If you lost that too contact your network service provider to unlock your SIM card. They do it for free.

For a factory reset:

First, back up your files from the SD card. If you registered your device on Samsung you might be able to reset the phone password over the internet.

1. Hold the power button to turn off the device

2. Hold the power button + the volume up + home button until you enter recovery mode

3. use volume buttons to navigate through the menu, press home button to select option

be careful when you are in the recovery menu. Choose the factory reset option. You are going to loose all personal data from your phone with this process!

are you saying you cannot connect to 5G at all or don't reach 5G speeds? Is it on any network or a specific connection you are having problems with? J7 does not support 5G but is compatible with 5G you should be able to connect to the network and use it with 4G speed.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Codeman666:
Hi, I have a stock SM-J730F with the latest updates, since this device was provided by my company I want to leave it stock/unrooted, the rom seems to be the stock Samsung one, no vendor branding of any sort.

So far the phone is still very usable but there are 2 main issues that I have been unable to fix:

--Automatic Play-store app updates when charging

Not all apps auto-update, just some specific apps like OpenCamera, these seem to be installed as security updates(?) instead of the normal app updates.

All auto-update options are turned off in the general Play store settings and also in the individual apps that are auto updating.

Searched online for a solution, contacted google support, no solution found so far

Anyone experience this issue or know how to fix it?

--Limited internal storage space

The internal storage is so limited that the phone needs daily maintenance (cache cleaning/moving apps to sd) to make it usable.

Everyday I have to spend some time cleaning cache and constantly moving updated apps to SD because of the extremely limited internal storage space, otherwise I'm constantly getting low space errors, apps stop updating, gmail stops syncing, etc

-Already enabled "Force allow apps on external" and moved every app possible to the SD card

-Uninstalled updates and disabled some unmovable apps like Facebook, Word/Excel/PowerPoint etc

-Only personal files I have (ringtones, whatsapp folder) only take up about 200mb

-Samsung gallery cache (.\DCIM\.thumbnails) quickly consumes about 1GB of storage but doesn't seem to impact the overall available space somehow when deleted.

It would be great if some of these stock apps could be removed or installed as normal apps so that they could be moved to the SD card.

I also noticed a weird symptom about the internal storage space, after a system update is installed I get back about 3GB of storage, it gradually shrinks back to 500mb/700mb after a week or two...

Is there any solution for these issues without rooting?

I had some confusion as well when I bought mine. From what I have gathered it was released in 2016, but it is based on the 2015 model with some changes/improvements?

There is a separate section for the sm-700t and 700t1 (same hardware, Metro PCS software) if you haven't checked it out yet.
