[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] FluitGeluid:
I fixed it!

With the help of Nameless i managed to fix my problem, here is his post regarding this issue: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8/help/stuck-bootloop-flashing-aqg5-fix-t3636857

I see other people are experiencing this issue as well, hope this helps!

here is the AQF7 bootloader I used: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195911671,

For a full flash of the AQF7 version, I recommend you to use this website: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model

Fill in the model of your S8 or S8+ select your country then look for the one that ends with XXU1AQF7 under the tab PDA

Best of luck!

Hi

I have a samsung galaxy s8 SM-G950U I bought from AT&T and got it career unlocked by AT&T. I am not getting OTA updates since I unlocked it in April 2017. My phone details are as below. I contacted AT&T and samsung both of them were of no help in updating the device to latest version as I unlocked the device and no longer with AT&T. Can someone please suggest which rom/firmware to flash so that I get OTA updates directly from Samsung rather than depending on any career. I am currently using TMobile sim card in my unlocked at&t s8 by the way.

Model number: SM-G950U

Android Version: 7.0

Android Security Patch level: April 1, 2017

Baseband Version: G950USQU1AQDE

Kernel version: 4.4.16-11131491 dpi@SWDD6915 #1 Thu Apr 27 15:45:09 KST 2017

Build number: NRD90M.G950USQU1AQDE

Can someone please suggest me a stock rom to flash using ODIN so that I get OTA updates?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] jpcdeux:
If you want att fw, the QF7 fw has been posted here (search my posts). There's an update after that that'll come OTA after install.

If you want unlocked go to updato.com and search for g950u1 fw. XAA is the no carrier bloat version you want.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] mateen0857:
Thanks

Just wanted to check that everything else like samsungPay, bixby will work after flashing any of the above fws? Can I try flashing QF7 AT&T firmware first and later flash XAA from updato.com?

Another quick question. Since I am using T-mobile sim in my phone, can I flash T-mobile firmware and would get OTA updates from T-mobile for future updates. Would I be able to use wifi calling too?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] mateen0857:
USERDATA_ATT file?

Hi

I just downloaded the qf7 fw from your post for at&t. I am not sure where to user the file "USERDATA_ATT_G950USQS1AQF7..."? Do I have to use it for CSC in odin?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] norbarb:
If you use T-Mobile just re-brand you phone to t-mobile. Download last t-Mobile firmware and flash with Odin 3.12.5 . There is place for user_data and in csc put home_csc to re-brand.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] mateen0857:
Hi

I was successfully able to flash the QF7 firmware downloaded from updato.com. I am currently on QF7 android 7.0 June 1, 2017 Android security patch level. I tried to check for software updates from phone settings but it again says my phone is up to date which is not correct. I want to rebrand my phone to T-Mobile now, what baseband version shall I be looking to download and flash via odin for T-Mobile if my current baseband is QF7? Can I simply download the latest available baseband and flash it or it has to be the immediate next release after QF7.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] jpcdeux:
You can dl and flash any firmware yes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] mateen0857:
Hi

I would first like to thank you for all your previous responses.

I Downloaded XAA by searching SM-G950U1 on update.com and when tried to flash it with odin 3.12.7 I got the below error:

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Could you please suggest me how to flash the no carrier bloat version if I am doing something wrong.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] markm75:
I actually have the same question which i sorta asked here in this thread..

I have the SM-G950U1 phone.. it needs branded with att apps since its unlocked to enable HD Voice to enable s3 frontier numbersync, or so the rep says.. they recommended going to best buy to get flashed, but if i can do it at home all the better.. however most of what i read here is a little greek to me for now..

Do i want one of the firmwares from updato here (dec 2017)? Do i just install Odin on a pc and connect the phone to the pc and point it to the file? I assume it wipes the phone correct? Does it lose its unlocked status in doing so?

So i hard bricked my sprint g5. lol No big deal.

We wont get into how, I know how i did it,

now i have a a zva dump from from lgup. I have a zv8 kdz. which I have extracted into many a images and bins. and a zv6 .tot which i found out passes for downgrade check in lgup just errors out somewhere else flash back and forth plenty of times zv6 and 8 straight in download mode no reboots.. i didnt think to reflash zv8 before rebooting and no crap hard brick. Like it set in as soon as i pulled the battery out for a reboot i was like oh ****

How can I make one of the debrick.img to try to see if she will boot of sd card to download mode?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Did you brick yours?

so im gonna try a few things tonight

first u have to have a sd card bigger than 32 gb as 32 gb cards formatted are 29.9 gb. NOT ENOUGH.

I got a 128 and also has to be a class 10 card. im working on downloading another models debrick image so i can see how its constructed.

and i will try to piece one together from the kdzs tots and my zva dump

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
What was the reasoning behind this post?

Do you have one hardbricked also?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] askermk2000:
Interesting. Why is it important to know which firmware we bricked on?

In the case of V20, it seems most boards are marked with *VS995* (the Verizon variant), including mine (H918 T-Mobile).

But I know for certain my model is H918 since the unique TMO bootloader key is in the QFPROM. That's the reason I bricked, I flashed H910PR firmware.

I had never owned a LG phone before, nor any American variant. So I walked into a trap there :p Could not see any warnings on the V20 forum either. Though I have put up some now :)

What versions of FW files? I'd like to have a look for myself.

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 PM ----------

For me. I can only speak for myself. I like to start with the latest version that is known to be downgradable.

You could probably save us some time if you already know what that is.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
I was able to successfully downgrade to zv8 from zva

I have reason to believe i could make it to zv6 as lg flashtool was passing antirollback checks with zv6 but encounters other errors but successfully zv8 kdz

mine isa already in qloader 9008

which like alectel 9008 is fastboot i wish i could flash it that way
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] gratefuldeaddougie:
One thing is for sure. The version of Android in which said device is Bricked operating in. Has to match the version of the FW that we would prefer to extract. Any questions so far? I'm just gonna wait for your Q. As As I'm working on another device here as well. My question to you is, What tot did you brick on? & What is the latest "latest downgradable" version?

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
So far im with you on all this. So far nothing new or shocking to me. Ive done my research many times over. I bricked it trying to downgrade as low as possible.

As sprint users say zva no downgrade, and I proved that wrong my making it to zv8. And like I said zv6 was passing lgups anti rollback check but was erroring out somewhere else.

As zv8 and zva are kdzs and zv6 is a .tot. I formatted the device with modded lgup and forgot to reflash zv8 before rebooting.

Im always down for testing and new procedures. As I do not brick my only device lol. But i do miss my unrooted g5. Or at least the camera and knock on. If u manage to get me up and running there will be a sizable donation heading your way. As I figure a used mother board cost close to 150$ usd. I cant quite afford that but I will make it worth your while good sir.

---------- Post added at 01:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

I think what I plan on doing is possible because like you said, ZV8 is confirmed downgrade-able. LGBoardDiag2.99 will be used to extract. A loud shout-out to WillCracker, who I think is the one who made this tool use-able for the average member.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:

Let's hope you figure out the G5 :D Then V20 should be the same solution, as they both use msm8996 and UFS storage.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] gratefuldeaddougie:
bad news is my hard drive crapped out and I am now attempting to rescue some data I'll need. word to the wise... don't let your pc run 24/7/365. my sprint G5 is running ZVA although CodeFire's LGUP with UPPERCUT is logging as ZV3. To keep this easy peezy. This has just opened the door for me to down grade to ZV3. Since LGUP logs me as ZV3, I'll flash ZV3 then Flash ZV8 then make you a dump. Does the SD card method work on UFS devices? OH and to answer the question, "Why does the modem have to be connected?" because, when LG serial port connects in download mode mode the modem is also connected. I'm pretty sure the modem has something to do with the carrier signature that is peppered through out an android firmware. So Tunkick's LG FLASHTOOL 2014 will refuse the flash, where ieatacid's flash tool ignores the signature and flashes thru, regardless. These 2 guys have provided priceless utillities in my own understanding of The Andoid OS. besides have you taken alook at the official msm8996 info page. one of the features they are so proud of is that thew flash memory and the modem are on the same piece of hardware.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] rogeliomalpa:
Hey guys, i had this LS993 G6 Sprint unrooted and sim card locked for about a year. Months ago a few fellas here on XDA thrown away the idea that you could flash unlocked Canadian variant LG H873 firmware and you were going to be sim unlocked, Sprint debloated and maybe rootable.

Just got this LG G5 LS992 from eBay for a buddy and i was thinking if can i do the very same process. With let's say flashing H860 (Canadian unlocked variant firmware) to achieve SIM unlock, Sprint debloat and probably root.

I've seen this very same conversion has been done with newer models like V30+ and few others so maybe it can work. This is the most useful thread for a bricked LS992 so i was thinking this is a good place to start.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
If the bootloader says you have a D820, you have a d820. I've not seen a post where someone was able to cross-flash a bootloader.

For the 32 GB, does the imei on the sim tray match the imei in the phone?

Examining the motherboard may not help. Once you remove the cover, you will see this on the lower left-hand corner:

--- D820

--- D821

--- 16G

--- 32G

The "---" represent gold contacts on motherboard. I believe the contacts that have been darkened indicate the motherboard model.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] momostarz:
There is no IMEI on the sim tray (thank you for pointing that out, never knew there was suppose to be one.) IMEI on phone backcase matches in phone IMEI.

I checked the gold contacts on the motherboard, and to my surprise it's a D821 32G. I have a D821 phone that says D820 in the bootloader.

If anyone can help me completely revert this phone, I would be grateful. I'm willing to send in any information about the phone and will dl Skype to get things done.

And Since the ROM doesn't natively support the N915P you would need to flash micky387's TWRP version that will let you flash the ROM in the first place.
