[DISCONTINUED][ROM][MOD] S8+_U1_Unbranded_Rom_PlayStore_Addon_Mods_ADB & Odin_Install

THE FIRMWARE IN THIS OP IS FOR VERZIZON S8+ ONLY

The PlayStore Nougat Mods Zip Or The S8 Nougat Mods Zip Can Be Used On Any Carrier​

This involves some knowledge of using odin and adb if you do not how to use these please read up before attempting this as this thread is not going to be a how to use odin/adb thread​

How I Achieved This If You Want The Technical Stuff

I found that Older CSC zips pulled from the cache.img of the S7 model phone will install using adb sideload.

I dont flash a S8 CSC file in odin because this contains the carrier stuff

I have to flash 2 different csc files from the S7. The first one flashes the correct stuff to blacklist unwanted other carrier Apps and install vital verizon apps. But the first csc zip blocks samsung cloud so by flashing the second csc zip which is from S7 MM firmware Samsung cloud was not blocked then. Finally the 3_Install.bat zip removes unwanted carrier files that cause problems with verizon VoLTE.

This Will Wipe Your Phone!
