Face slap....i started this process on stock QC1..odined stock QC1 firmware and got the update notification for QD2..this is the problem...on QD2 now will try again later
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:
Welp..dang..no go again..not sure what I am doing wrong..anybody else having issues?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:
Ya know..as I am reading through the instructions, after using flashify, setting up did not include hands free activation...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
I can't help much guys as I don't have sprint. You have to wait for someone to chime in that's got it too work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:
No problem man..thanks for the work. You and [MENTION=5758594]God[/MENTION]powerr have this thing on lock. I appreciate what y'all have done. Hell, the ROM was so sweet, I rocked it for most the day with no cell service..lmao..I am going to try again tomorrow..on g935p stock QD2 now..maybe just something stupid..thanks again for the work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Chewyballs:
Great work guys!!! Sorry i couldn't help, i got sick. I just flashed this rom, followed the OP and i am up and running with data voice and text/mms. Thanks again guys loving the rom so far!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
I made it all the way to the end the final flash in Odin and it just reset over and over it wouldn't boot.:eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
Sounds like you started the process from being on ufirmware not sprint firmware
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
nope i was on p qd2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
You made through aroma, the 2 adb flashes and bootlooped after you flashed AP boot recovery tar image?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
Yes made it thru adb2 then flashed ap and it just kept resetting at the galaxy S7 screen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Thank you man. Atleast some1 got it working, so i know its not my write-up. GL to you sir!

Yea i stated there will be some problems. For one this is for Verizon. [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] was nice enough to edit and conduct multiple zips for this compatibility issue.

It seems you guys' cache partition is the issue. This is what i know because since march I've been flashing my phone constantly. I tried to give the proper procedure for this installation but i figured it was a 50/50 chance. But we got one guy who it worked for so maybe wipe cache partition in recovery mode several times, wipe factory data and wipe cache partition several times again. Flash back to P QD2/QC1 it doesn't matter as long as P Firmware. Starting over is the best advice i can give because this custom rom firmware is so sensitive; everything has to be right.

Sorry for the headache guys but it worked for me. Try again please, try putting V11 zip in flashfire first, instead of AP firmware package.

If bootloop is occurring it is for sure your cache paritition.

[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] advises that a wipe in FlashFire will help, but it needs to be added before not after! You can add Wipe with + sign. Wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and format cache partition before adding zip and AP firmware in FlashFire, make sure INJECT SUPERSU IS UNCHECKED in Everroot. Press flash and everything should go accolading to OP, hopefully. Flashing CSC with .pit for P firmware stock will also help.. not going to show you how to do that, but for sure a fix.

Also if you want to get risky, when running AB2.zip [install.bat] run SuperSU installer at same time, reboot to bootloader and flash Recovery img provided with UFirm.zip in OP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
Ok I will try again when I get some time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
What AP file did you flash at the end? Please be specific there are 3 AP files you can flash
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
Ap_QD2_ufirm_boot_recovery_image.tar.md5
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
delete
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
I going to post an updated rom that will flash better its going to be smaller in size but it will rely more on the AP file flashed during flashfire, which will make sure symlinks are correct

Edit: UFirm_Multi_Carrier_Hybrid_NoNaMe_PlayStore_BS_Free_V15.zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Euronymous88:
So...to flash this update...start from a clean slate on P firmware?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
The exact same directions apply so yes start from clean slate on P firmware
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Euronymous88:
I planned on flashing the new zip...so...if I would choose the bs free play store debloat in aroma...would it still work properly?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
Yes it should
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Euronymous88:
I think it's great having a Rom that can be debloated with the S8 apps and still have official status. The 3 Minit battery is nice as well. Even have the option to root it. Excellent work. Especially with very little support for Sprint users...with the locked bootloader....no TWRP....makes things like this difficult.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
Thanks don't forget to thank [MENTION=7523343]godpowerrr[/MENTION] poor guy bootlooped his phone so many times figuring this out. Just remember even without root you can still change things by flashing back engboot.img then using adb to push or delete things then when done flash back stock kernel. Not ideal but better than nothing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Lmfao. I'm trying to build a custom rom atm and doing things I've never thought were so easy.

I am suprised my phone's hardware hasn't gone out on me.

This is handled but I'm still learning and its quite the experience.

In all honesty, you're the one to thank... I'm just putting pieces to a puzzle.

Uploading these zips and this is last version for me.

I cant get the system menu back unless pushing while deleting /system. [First ADB ZIP],

Any Ideas? [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION]

SM-G935P Stock QD2 Firmware if you need it.

Everything you need is in:​

V20.zip

Instructions were updated on post #79​
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
What system menu are you referring too?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JBeauter:
So far, I've had the most success with this build. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. The procedure went perfectly fine. I had LTE data, MMS, and calls up and running perfectly. However, SMS wasn't working. I could receive them but I couldn't send them. It was as if Sprint C*ck blocked me

:p I could not find a way to fix it so I had to flash back to Stock P firmware. Hopefully this isn't a problem for anyone else and that I'm just stupid xD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Im working on the csc factors so it will be stable upon flashing, that way u wont need the ADB3.zip...but its really time consuming and exhausting. Always go and check About Device and see if your mobile number is there. If a bunch of zeros or not your number, it most likely won't work. Give me by tomorrow... :) thanks for you support.. i don't take that lightly. I'll keep u guys posted.. ive been dealing with this rom for almost 2 weeks. Essentially any rom should work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Euronymous88:
Any Rom? Even those built for the international model?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JBeauter:
Take all the time you need, the work you are doing is fantastic! You can't rush greatness :P My number was there, maybe I messed something up but I'll just see what you can come up with so keep it up!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
Im up and running all sms mms calls working i just had to freeze samsung dm service but this rom is on point.

Voicemail and my sprint dosent work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Oh no. Some roms require twrp/cwm. This can leave you with a paper weight.

They should work, thats odd. Im whipping something up.

When push_system has nothing in the folder and pushed adb/recovery img it holds the system_UI(NN)

But when csc files are in push_system it disables the NN system settings categories/system_UI to default firmware/looks.

The recovery doesn't bring it back. Im working on an easier flash but just curious why it does that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] jrkruse:
I still not following you what does this **system_UI(NN)** mean
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
NoName System UI mod

I have a sprint device but using in india on a different carrier (Jio-4G). Is there a possibility to use INS or INU (Indian CSC) on this mobile? Indian variant is only EXYNOS not snapdragon.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] menace211:
Some excellent work thus far guys. I read through the posts, Are we still having issues?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Going to take some part on your end because we don't know what apns are correct and if the MNC will hold. More than likely you should because its a universal carrier rom.

Source

The problem is having to start off on P firmware. I am trying to figure it out... you know i will but yea a lot of code is written for apn's(xml) and one string can cause confliction.. or should i say will. You're going to like what I am working on bud (:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] menace211:
Excited for all your guys work. At times,the lag can get VERY aggravating but I can only assume you guys have some great things coming. While we wait, as a side convo, what root apps are you guys using? Lets see what everyones using, maybe there is something others dont know about. Anyone have OGInsta? Thing doesn't work for me

Ill list mine:

1. Ad Away

2. Speed Up Swap

3. Wifi Password

4. OG Youtube

5. Viper4Android (Although im not sure its working right)

6. BHB27 kernel Auditor
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Supermav:
i had the same issue couldn't send but could receive everything else worked great again thanks to everyone for all the hard work i'm back to stock until i get more free time i might just try it again tonight
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JBeauter:
I am about to try again tonight as well. I'll post my results and let you all know if I found out what the problem is. Otherwise, keep it up!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Supermav:
i had the same issue what i did was left click on install.bat and just open it, adb tried injecting all files from folder once complete redirected to bootloader as stated. In odin flashed U-firm boot recovery went all back to P firmware but had no # but what's weird is the 1st attempt i made a week ago everything went well but only issue was text not sending but received and now it won't push folder again thanks to everyone that contributed

i was just thinkin about it and maybe because we never reboot the pc throughout whole process that possibly adb is running in background from previous steps maybe it's conflicting, phone always reboots but pc never does idk it's a fickle setup so maybe it's an issue maybe not gonna try it will post results
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Nexus85:
I know I'm doing EVERYTHING correctly. I've done this process about 10-12 times and I only had root working correctly once before on Marshmallow which was a similar process to root the only time it all worked perfectly was when I didn't do a full wipe, like it kept the activation and everything in tact. This ROM seems nice but I have no data and can't receive calls nor mms or send them. I'm frustrated because It's hit or miss and this APN mumbo jumbo is for the birds...I really hate sprint and I miss T mobile (unlocked bootloader) rooting their phones was as simple as running adb and slapping twrp on and done. Ive rooted all galaxy s flagships but the s6 edge+ and this garbage can kick rocks, can't get root or a custom rom with not root. I may as well have gotten an Iphone. Thanks for EVERYONE who has helped us get to this point. Just frustrating but I feel we are close to achieving more with this process.

Here is latest root zip with SuperSU 2.81

Nougat_S7_Root_2_81_All_Carriers_V2.zip

This root method will reset your fingerprints and lockscreen security it will also fix fingerprint issue this should help with issues of not recognizing your fingerprint after you root. The binary is also updated Version 2.81 Stable
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Son Rise:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
Will report back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JBeauter:
Followed the instructions closely. Had everything but LTE setup. APNs were greyed out so I restored the partitions and went through modified setup again. APNs weren't greyed out this time, so edited the one and deleted the other. However, the APN did not stick so LTE is still down. I'm going to start fresh again and see if that fixes anything. Will report back.

P.S.

This build seems to be the most promising and I praise you for this! I believe we all praise you for this!!

[MENTION=7523343]godpowerrr[/MENTION]

All is good 100%

I have data , LTE SMS, MMS I even drove around for about 1hr and LTE stuck.

I have 0 issues

I followed directions to a t and all worked 1st try.

Thank you for your hard work.

**Edit**

It's been 13hrs and all is still good, no overheating, themes work no system ui crashes because of themes, I installed govtuner set on 3 performance all is smooth and battery only dropped 7% at idle off the charger all night.

And if someone could help pack that firmware partition(s) to a whole compatible zip-i am lost. []D.[].[]V[].[]D.

But I'm not even rooted. And I'm on QD2. I never been rooted this will be my first time. What files do I need to root?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Euronymous88:
When we get the Debloat section in aroma...which one do we select?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Which ever you prefer

You don't have to choose my preferences, but things might go haywire if you stray too far.

I suggest keeping adhost to a minimal if you want 3battery app to work[maybe].

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Forgot to mention

//

CRITICAL

\\

Please for the love of the cosmos please please please make sure in Odin

everytime

that Re-partition is NOT ticked!!

We are mixing U and P QD2 firmware + data & partitioning a .csc pit file into incorrect firmware has a bunch of fun outcomes! [sarcasm]

---

-IF this were ever to occur it can damage device severly; hardware mainly-

---

So to try and possibly recover:

The most helpful change would be

:

Flash BL,AP,CP, CSC |NOT HOME| (STOCK FIRMWARE )

&

NOW YOU WOULD THEN TICK RE-PARTITION in Odin and flash stock images.

​
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] menace211:
Will give this a shot possibly tonight.

Update: Downloading files. Will update as I go.

Update2: Got a bootloop after aroma. My fault, when you make a backup. Make sure you unchecked ALL the other partitions but the 4 noted

Update3: Giving it another shot

OMG. I Miss 3minit Battery????. They Have It In This Rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Josephigloe:
I chose to root and was wondering if there was any way to make SHealth work?

**Edit**

I found the fix for Shealth.

Build prop change.

Ro_config.tima=1

Change 1 to 0 save and reboot

I can confirm shealth works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:
I am up and running with the new version. I had to use the green section however, as my APNs were greyed out. Now I have all the google apps, messenger, dialer, keyboard. Is there a way to run the aroma installer just for the mods? Thank yall for all the hard work.. this ROM is awesome!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:
If we want to root, we just Odin the eng bootloader and run the root method as described in the aforementioned steps correct?

Can i install this rom in my G935U ? I don't know if it will reboot when i finish to install it ..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] menace211:
tried about 15 times the last 2 days. I cant get the apns to work after Aroma.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
[MENTION=7798843]hedoujeff02[/MENTION] I'm not saying you cant be on U firmware but not wise. Something eventful will happen. It's smart to start off on P Firmware because as of now it's the only Firmware to catch up with it's actual Network by default(Prl/Profile).

Create FlashFire/Backups/17/ folder in Internal Storage.

From this zip HERE like before (no backing up/replacing this time though).

In FlashFires menu under Backups you can add that way or through +Recover.

All 4 Partitions should be checked and you may uncheck Verify md5.

+ Zip UFirm_Multi_Carrier_Hybrid_NoNaMe_PlayStore_BS_Free_V17.zip * Mount to system.

Now after flashing Boot partitions and going through aroma installer, Installation will instantly finish at end of setup. It will look like nothing installed correctly ( Boot animation may not be yours you chose ) But you can always change that down the road.

Now when reaching home screen after initial setup, choose pixel launcher if it pops up. All mods should be installed through partitions. My coding isn't anywhere near par so a string is malfunctioning aroma installer visually.

This flash left me still rooted and apns only thing needed of a change. You could theoretically add an internal data/system wipe after inserting V17 zip...

But what I chose to do was edit APN to current settings and make sure it activated LTE symbol. Even if Sprint is carrier posted in notification bar, doesn't mean service is intact. If you're phone number isnt valid in about settings then you have no choice but to start over. If you don't factory reset you will keep bootlooping because eng Boot hasn't been overridden until data wipe or flash eng again and root again to [try] fix that random ineffective/inevitable bootloop. (Speculation)

When factory reset LTE should be set already. Though if not-APN is ready to be edited stock. Check anyways it tends to broadcast a signal frequently and not withholding service (other users).

GL hope things reverse.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Have you tested it? You're very welcome. I am least to thank. Credit [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] for the blueprints.

Two ways now.. and one validation for this particular rom: means I did my job. Adding from post before:

I would like to start filling this forum category up with ROMs and learn more on how to properly construct/produce for odin which is laughable. People embracing the same concept would enlighten me.

I don't like Sprint but we all have our reasons, families, blah blah and I don't want to be [in general] packaging ROMs or Firmwares for a dead community.

The majority wants root rights?& some others want functionality.

Bottom line is our device sucks and all need full bloat.

Once your phone settles down, set developer options to .5x for animation scales.

*Reboot once before applying any FlashFire Installations if have not ^^factory reset*
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:
I am up and running, but I have Google contacts and dialer..wont work with edge..any way to fix this? I had deleted you tube from system>app, and pho way and velvet from system>private app yesterday to push TBO version. After I deleted them, i rebooted to add the TBO and got system ui crash...had to start all over...lol...any idea why this happened? Could I just push the Samsung apks without hurting anything? Thanks for this ROM. It is very nice...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] godpowerrr:
Thanks for your feedback :D Did you reboot device once initially before removing?

From aroma installer choose Regular System_UI instead. I Dont apply all that google crap. Idk what could go wrong i just know what went right for me. I always do it twice to make sure.

No idea. Since you're rooting again. Download from [MENTION=5161712]eduds[/MENTION] Thread or on play store...

You can make a zip with apps/data/system/buildprop and recoveries and flash with FlashFire so it will be concrete with your device. It is neat.

Things about custom rom im finding out it is if you plan on touching it then make it yours twice. And i honestly don't know how i got it this far.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Bigmar75:

Ok after 3 days and a million tries, I think I got it. So I went through aroma and CAN FINALLY EDIT APN'S! But I am getting random reboots.
