Thanks for all the info :good: Btw Your thread is being moved to Q&A

But I am XM CCT user:good: It appears your U1 s8 is on the revision 3 bootloader

So you have to goto sam mobile and flash this firmware here https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G950U/CCT/download/G950USQS3CRE2/220596

which is also bootloader 3 and flash in odin

Now sam mobile is horribly slow so it will take several hours to get it but once you get to this point hollar at me and i will help you out....

I just received my Project Fi V30. It looks like the same model as the unlocked version but I've not confirmed that with anyone since I don't think the unlocked versions outside of Project Fi have shipped yet.

Noticeable things that were easy to see right away.

1. No LG email app

2. No LG dialer, contacts, etc (google dialer,apps)

3. The LG apps I recognize are Smartworld, QuickMemo, Quick Help, Switch, Health, Smartclean

4. Only thing from project Fi is the project Fi app.

5. Always on display is a little different. The screen I use with big numbers and 2 tone colors is rearranged and the font is different

6. option for DTS X 3d Surround (along with Quad DAC as a separate option)

7. Added "wallpaper and themes" in Display options

8. renamed "Smart Settings" to "Context Awareness" in General Settings

So, pretty clean as far as bloatware goes.

Is the fi edition bootloader unlockable? With just the fastboot commands or by another method?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Haphim:
I'm having major problems with TWRP, and I need help.

I have an S4 with an unlocked bootloader, rooted, that had a working version of TWRP 2.8.7.0, running an older version of CM.

I'm overhauling the phone, so the first thing I tried to do was to update TWRP.

Here's the series of events that occurred:

1. From Win 10, I could connect with ADB to reboot it into fastboot mode. However, I couldn't connect to it in fastboot mode. Trying to flash TWRP through fastboot, I got "waiting for any device".

2. Well, no problem, with TWRP v2.8.7. it now supports flashing itself. So I booted into recovery and flashed the TWRP update directly through TWRP. No errors that I saw.

But when I try to boot into recovery, I now get "System Software Not Authorized By AT&T Has Been Found On Your Phone". Fortunately, I can still boot normally - it's only recovery that I'm locked out of.

3. I have one more trick. I try to flash TWRP again through the TWRP app. But I get "Flash Failed".

So I can still boot normally, and I can connect via ADB, but not fastboot.

But the big issue is that I'm completely locked out of recovery.

Can someone help me fix this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Haphim:
As a followup, I tried yet another method - I tried flashing TWRP via Odin (first time I've ever used Odin).

This didn't work either. Here's the log of my results:

Another followup:

I tried flashing TWRP using the dd method. No errors occurred during the flash, but the same problem I originally posted occurs when I try to boot into recovery.

Why is TWRP failing and how can I fix this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] audit13:
If you have the sgh-i337 and a 4.3 or newer bootloader, forget about ever getting TWRP in the phone. The bootloader is locked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Haphim:
Thanks, but I think you missed the part in the first post where I said the bootloader was already unlocked, already running a working older version of TWRP, and already running Cyanogen.

However, I finally figured out what the problem was (at least regarding being locked out of recovery). Despite what TWRP says on their site, from v3.0 and later, their releases are no longer being lokied. That's what's causing the signature check to fail. So if you loki patch the 3.x releases, they'll work properly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] audit13:
My apologies for not reading more closely. I mentioned the 4.3 bootloader part because upgrading the bootloader will definitely move it into a locked state. Glad you got figured it out:good:

I'm not that familiar with the at&t version of the s4 since I had the Canadian version which didn't have a locked bootloader or twrp issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gorgy76:
I feel you. We are on same boat. I was supposed to ugrade my twrp to the preferred one from lineage rom but it fails and now I don't have any working recovery. I tried the old and new version ODIN but fails to flash the old and new twrp's. Even tried old CWM and PHILZ touch recovery but still fails.

It has been a long time I do flashing. Can you give some advice on how to loki the said recovery. Or can you send one in Tar file that I could flash thru ODIN. Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] StoneyJSG:
I have written a guide here that tells you how to Loki the at&t s4. Note that while the guide is for the CWM recovery, it should work the same for TWRP.

One thing is blatantly obvious. This is NOT a "google edition" phone like of past. It is all LG. Updates will come directly from LG and it will not be getting updates quickly...ie android 8.0.0 right now. I was hoping...maybe...but...nope.
[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] bitwiser:
Had to add a FINALLY!! you can adjust brightness on auto. So you can increase the brightness in a certain lighting situation while leaving it on auto. This was such a pain on my v30 because it was always too dim at night so I would have to take it off of auto mode. Thankfully it has been fixed for v35.
[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] bitwiser:
Here is a link for some photos from the v35 vs the v30. The plant images with Mickey mouse have AI enabled. The ones with Mickey with his hands up have AI enabled. (Open info in photos to see which camera is being used. That way you can try see which ones are better without bias) In the dark shot I could not get the V30 to enable super bright mode with AI on no matter what I tried so the picture is really dark. But it gives you an idea of how dark the room really was.

The PFi version should work with VZW as it's an unlocked phone. It supports GSM/CDMA/LTE so there should be no issue.

Is anyone else having trouble with WiFi? My phone will not connect to the 2.4ghz band at all. It's fine if I'm close to the router, but if I go to the next room I sometimes get disconnected because it won't switch to the 2.4ghz band. My Note 8 switches fine and always has a strong connection with both bands. So it's not a problem with my router. Does anyone know of a way to force the V35 to only use the 2.4ghz band?

Edit...Now it's working. I didn't do anything to fix it. I did get an update from at&t last night, maybe that had something to do with the wifi.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] champ784:
Anyone having issues where the phone app won't show incoming calls unless you manually open the app? When I open the app during an incoming call, it brings up the menu as if the phone is already on a call.

Completely stock and locked bootloader.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
I had this same issue when my Z2 Force was new. It would not show incoming calls without manually tapping on the icon and then I would receive the menu like the call was in progress.

This is what I did:

Go to Phone App Info and go to Storage and clear cache and clear data.

Force stop the app and then select disable.

Reboot like normal and go to the Play Store and download another dialer app like TrueCaller or another comparable app.

Set it up and make a call and have someone call you back.

Next, I enabled the stock dialer app and set it as default. Then I deleted the TrueCaller app and rebooted and it was back to normal and I haven't had any problem since and it's been 2 months at least.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exodusche:
For changes like that at least root is needed I imagine. I use to love that feature on the phone having volume buttons to skip tracks while in my pocket at work. Some of the custom ROMs have it baked in. Don't think possible remote or headphones.
[Wing, P4350 General] Collinfrisch:
Please Help! The touchscreen on my WING stopped responding but everything else functioned well, so I kept on using it with the hardware buttons. I was still keen to sort out the root problem and one of the suggestions I got from this forum was to do a hard reset.

After the hard reset, the touchscreen is still not responding, but the phone prompts me to align the screen, I have failed to get past this as it requires the use of the touchscreen. I would rather still use my WING without the touchscreen as where I am located its almost impossible to get a replacement screen which I now believe is the permanent solution.

Is there any way that I can bypass the align screen so I can at least still use the phone?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Mr._Happy:
I have the SM-G930UP baseband version G930PVPS4BQE1

I am preparing to flash the universal firmware, but with the T-Mobile modem. The goal is a phone with the U firmware and the T-Mobile modem.

Download and install Samsung USB drivers: http://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows

Odin utility: https://odindownload.com/SamsungOdin/

Latest SM-G930U firmware files for “USA (XAS)”:

G930UUEU4BRD1_G930OUYM4BRD1_XAS

All U variants have the same baseband etc. numbers , so I assume it doesn't matter which one I use.

https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930U/

Latest T-Mobile SM-G930T firmware files:

G930TUVS4BRC1_G930TTMB4BRC1_TMB https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930T/

The plan is to back up all data first, extract the all the files (Odin, drivers, and both U and T archives). Install the Samsung USB drivers.

Next steps:

Connect phone to PC.

Shut down phone: Hold Home and Volume-Down buttons while pressing the power button. Press Volume-Up when prompted to place phone in download mode (whatever it’s called).

Open Odin. Wait for Com connected prompt.

Click BL button. Select the SM-G930U BL file.

Click AP button. Select the SM-G930U AP file.

Click CP button. Select the SM-G930T CP file.

Click CSC button. Select the SM-G930U CSC (NOT HOME_CSC) file to wipe and factory reset the phone.

Click Start and wait for Odin to say “Complete.”

Any feedback? Suggestions? Anything I missed?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] InsanePostman:
what baseband are you currently on?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] turbozapekanka:
why would you want T-mobile modem? anything wrong with U-version?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Mr._Happy:
In some of the reading I have done it appears advantageous to have the carrier modem of the service provider you use; I'm assuming because the carriers tweak the modem for use with their particular infrastructure.

I don't know if that's true, but I have seen a number of posts to that effect. It sounds logical and I figure it can't hurt as long as it works.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Mr._Happy:
Software version is the same. G930PVPS4BQE1 it's from May 2017.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] turbozapekanka:
I doubt it.

I've been using U-version (converted from SM-G930P) on T-mobile for a year and found no issues whatsoever.

I was reading the opposite, something like U-version has more LTE bands unlocked (which makes sense as it should work with all carriers)

Also someone here claimed it has extra bands for Europe. like band 7, 20
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Mr._Happy:
Interesting. That seems logical too.

Unfortunately I may not be flashing anything as every time I have downloaded firmware from SAMOBILE and extracted it I have got an error message that the AP portion has a problem. If I "retry" it gives me the same error. If I "skip" it unpacks everything except the AP file. I have tried several times with multiple downloads. Each one took the full two hours to download, so it's been a lengthy process with no results.

When you flashed the G930U which variant did you use?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] turbozapekanka:
I flashed version G930UUEU4APL2 with odin 3.12.3

It was back in January 2017. Note the number 4 in the version. This indicates bootloader version.

I believe you can no longer flash this version if your current version has 5 (or any greater number) in place of 4 because you're not allowed to downgrade the bootloader version.

Sprint is known to bump the bootloader version from 4 to 5 for (supposedly) blocking this type of conversions of their branded phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Mr._Happy:
Sprint is currently on bootloader 6, actually. Crappy obstructionist commercialism specifically to block people converting.

I have been denying and rejecting the software updates since May of 2017 which is when I got that software version, so your G930UUEU4APL2 firmware from January would not work on this phone as my Sprint firmware is more recent.

I should be able to flash the most recent version of G930U, however. I just can't seem to download one that will extract the AP portion. It's really frustrating.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] turbozapekanka:
Try this https://xdaforums.com/att-galaxy-s7/how-to/firmware-g930uueu4apl2-sm-g930u-t3535230

You should be able to flash any firmware as long as the bootloader version is the same

For newer firmwares you may need to use the latest Odin version (3.13.x)

---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ----------

I wonder why did you choose XAS version.

I also remember back in time I downloaded two versions of U-firmware (SPR and XAA) and compared the files they appeared identical.
