Is there any program that emulates push-to-talk using a data connection? I need a program that 2 people can run in the background, allowing for the sending of voice clips back and forth. I would like to be able to bind the PTT key to record/send the voice clip. I realize that some of the gmail/aim/yahoo clients have the option of sending voice clips, but I don't think you can bind a hardware key to the voice clip option. Maybe I could use one of these clients and keep it minimized/hidden, but how would I bind a hardkey to send a voice clip? I just want to choose a contact (from a today screen plugin, maybe?), hold the button to record a clip, and then send the file when it's released. The only difference between this and real PTT would be the lag time, and the fact that both people would have to be running the program. Hopefully this makes sense to somebody besides me. I would think that somebody would have already written such a program so that us non-nextel folks can have PTT. If not, I'm gonna write the **** myself, because such an app would be badass, would it not? I could make millions:D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] clubtech:
Sometimes you need to do a factory reset for the CSC code to replace the current one .

When you flash the phone, choose the none "HOME" CSC file and it should factory reset your phone once the flash is done. If you use the "HOME" CSC file instead, the phone will not factory reset and it will stay on the Verizon code.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] sillyphillie:
I did both CSC files and factory reset each time. Still Verizon. I'm not sure how this guy flashed his Verizon and made it TMobile but I sure wish he would share his steps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] clubtech:
Hmm. I have not tried this on my Verizon unit (because I'm not on T-Mobile) but technically it should work. Once the unbranded firmware will be out I will give it a try. The unbranded unlocked version should have CSC code XAA.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] 954wrecker:
He likes to post hypothetical scenarios but I do not think he has actually done either of the things he claims. I'm sure he didnt get a bargain off swappa and he probably doesnt even have the phone at all. He will post some BS next changing the subject but not proving anything he claimed.

DO WE HAVE ANY CONFIRMED LEGITIMATE CASES OF ANY S8 OR S8+ FLASHING FROM ONE CARRIER TO ANOTHER?

I have now tried it with 2 different firmware downloads and followed whatever directions I could find to a T. Flashed successfully over 5 times. Still Verizon. I'm giving up hope this is attainable with this version of ODIN. I sure hope this isn't hardware related. Meaning every variant has something different. making it not carrier interchangeable.

After the flash and factory reset, were there any T-Mobile applications installed ? Or only Verizon applications installed?

3.12.3 is the version. Not a T-Mobile app in sight. Looks like Verizon straight out of the box.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] clubtech:
My Verizon model, which I have never tried to flash with anything also says "Fuse blown" I don't think you have anything to worry about here.

It also says RPMB provisioned.

This phone is 100% stock and I never attempted any flashing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] Quickvic30:
Hmmmmmm that's pretty odd.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] clubtech:
OK, I compared the files in the unlocked international version to the US models.

The international version has the AP, BL, CP and CSC files, all which have a designated slot in Odin.

The US version has an additional file, called USERDATA. I can't find any proper slot for it in Odin 3.12.3 so unless someone finds how to flash this part, we may need a new a Odin.

I think that all the carrier files are in that USERDATA file because it contains the carrier code.

Unless someone confirms otherwise, it seems that the people in this thread who tried to flash the firmware never flashed that userdata file and this is probably why their phones were unchanged after the flash.

Being that I am now on AT&T, if I buy a T-Mobile version (say on Swappa), how would I be able to use it on AT&T or would I even be able to? Do I need to wait for someone to figure out a way to unlock it first? Sorry if this is a dumb question. While I was on T-Mobile, I really never had the need for something like this since they normally don't lock the bootlader, but now... well, screw that! I want a rooted phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus] 954wrecker:
You have a few questions in there. If you want root and an unlockable bootloader 955F you do not want any of the 4 US carrier versions. Every carriers version has a locked bootloader and only Verizon comes sim unlocked for any GSM provider. Sim unlocking can be done for free or for $$$ depending on the carrier and if you have an account or not.

Not sure if my research is correct but the rpmb fuse is blown at the factory and it doesnt mean much except I think to prevent ppl from using the board/SoC in other devices.. basically has to be used with the ssme device as well as they blow it to prevent rollbacks/downgrading and they have been blowing it on all devices after the S4.

Here is a good read:

Another method was described in a recent leak: There is a special hardware protected partition on the eMMC called “RPMB” (Not to be confused with RPM.mbn), that stores the roll back information on the QCOM Galaxy S4 variants. This can be theoretically restored to a blank state by removing the eMMC and hooking it up (using the correct pin outs) to a Linux Machine, which would then have to issue several (confidential/not-public knowledge) Toshiba eMMC Vendor Commands to wipe RPMB (or write the lowest known firmware

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 PM ----------

not sure why it didnt paste the last part but it continues to say this:

It is worth noting that all devices released by Samsung after the Galaxy S4 blow a physical QFUSE to signify rollback, meaning that they are not vulnerable (i.e. Note 3, Galaxy S

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

So basically from what I gather is the QFuse for the RPMB is blown at the factory intentionally to prevent it from being reset and downgraded?

Makes me wonder if the carrier firmware is flashed then qfuse blown to prevent flashing other firmware or overwriting carrier firmware on certain partitions?

Basically once verizon is flashed and qfuse blown then it will remain verizon? who knows lol either way sort of hard to get around if its a physical qfuse that is blown intentionally if that is one thing preventing us...

---------- Post added at 11:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 PM ----------

i believe odin 3.12 or something is latest.. also previous tar files had the same tars within the main tar file so posting the entire tar into the ap slot would flash all of it including userdata..

however from the looks of it, rpmb might be protecting the userdata partition whereas the rest of the tar files/partitions are universal and user data is only partition differentiating the different carriers and if so we can only flash the same or newer user data that was already on the device whdn the qfuse was blown..

either way, flashing another variant U firmware wont help us at all in unlocking/rooting seeing as how we are all in the same boat :-/.. we need to start looking elsewhere I believe
