[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DragonFire1024:
I wouldn't be that surprised. I always suspected it was stuck in limbo waiting for something to give it the ok to unlock, especially geven it being persistent. If the toggle was truly inoperable, it wouldn't do anything and a box wouldn't pop up. Given the engineering kernel, this unlocking seems very possible. From Android:

so, have you tried to flash twrp via odin yet? which device do you have?

Im on oreo too and mine says "Allow the phone to be OEM unlocked" my device is a 935V

Not until i can get the screen fixed unfortunately. Just my luck. G930T to a G930U.

Im about to try your procedure. i'll update my results

edit: After applying the build.prop lines and rebooting (didn't do factory reset) my OEM unlock switch now says "Bootloader is already unlocked"

Im wondering if that is because the bootloader got really unlocked, or if it's because of any of the added lines and it's just text

edit2: tried to flash twrp via odin 3.13 3B and it fails
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DragonFire1024:
Damn. Perhaps its the version of TWRP. I guess we'll have to wonder until something else comes along.

Not really. I didn't expect nor did I think the experimental TWRP to work.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] turnert:
Just to confirm I tried this and got the same results I could not flash twrp with odin(none of the versions worked) So I installed the twrp img with the official twrp app and it failed to boot into twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] tko:
i would really like to try this, but i dont really understand the instructions^^

could someone put the instructions down once again?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DragonFire1024:
Make sure OEM unlock enabled in settings.

Add to build.prop:

ro.oem_unlock_supported=1

sys.oem_unlock_allowed=1

Factory reset

You also could try adding this to build.prop:

ro.boot.verifiedbootstate=0

Like any mods, be prepared for the potential to brick. Im not responsible for anything that breaks.

Good news fellas! TWRP files for snapdragon devices is avaiable here TWRP files for Snapdragon so if anyone knows how to compile this we good.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] lugnut2099:
Well, I'm erring on the side of "There's no way it was THIS simple all along" and assuming it means nothing, but still...it's interesting, I'll give it that.

FWIW, I can't seem to replicate the "Bootloader Is Already Unlocked" message for some reason. I've got SM-G935R4 (US Cellular S7 Edge, though these are sold unlocked straight out of the box so the carrier is more like a technicality...) and I'm still running Nougat. What I get is a greyed-out box, switched to "On" and not adjustable, with the normal "Allow the device to be OEM unlocked" text still present (but also greyed out). I also didn't factory reset, just a few reboots.

I added all four lines suggested here (the original three, plus "ro.boot.verifiedbootstate=0") and found that A). the ro.boot.verifiedbootstate one doesn't have any discernible effects from a purely visual standpoint, and B). If I remove/comment-out the "ro.boot.flash.lock" line, the ability to switch OEM Unlock On/Off returns and the setting isn't greyed out.

Does any of that matter or mean anything? Hell if I know, I'm just chiming in.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DragonFire1024:
No idea. This does tell us a bit though. OEM toggle isn't disabled. Has anyone who tried this do a factory reset?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] turnert:
I did do a factory reset but I did not try it with ro.boot.verifiedbootstate and I was running oreo

If you guys are looking to flash twrp then here they are.

I know it says Chinese model but hardware is exactly the same and that's what matters when it comes to custom recovery booting. Or I could build one. Either way check this out.

https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys7china.html

https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys7edgechina.html

If you guys want I can compile one specifically for S7/s7edge. Just let me know.

I'm not sure if it's even possible to unlock the US variants. It's been my experience with Samsung they've been pretty good with protecting things like that with qfuses..

I wish you guys the best of luck.

I'll be around.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] maXDAmn:
but how? i think to booting up a custom recovery you must be unlocking the bootloader then flash it since samsung doesn't have fastboot protocol. so, the problem is not a proper version of twrp but how we can boot/flash the custom recovery on it when the device still on locked state. correct me if i'm wrong here
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] klabit87:
[MENTION=8165603]DragonFire1024[/MENTION] believes to have unlocked it with the steps he outlined above.

If it is so, then all that is needed is to flash twrp via odin and test it.

I'm not saying it will or will not work. I'm just providing the tools and info necessary for someone to try it. With the steps [MENTION=8165603]DragonFire1024[/MENTION] has provided of course.

I was trying some things, and my imei disappeared i didn't flash any twrp or anything, just added build.prop lines and switched a couple of times the unlock bootloader switch (that's all i remember).

I restored the copy i have of my efs and a system nandroid i had from before i started adding build.prop lines and everything with safestrap, and restored the imei.

Its just to warn all who may try this. Always have a efs copy in a safe place.

Im not sure what i did (nor this was) that made that happend but be aware that playing with this stuff may wipe your efs.

My phone is H910 but I flashed H915 kdz on it for the Oreo update. So far everything works fine except I have pretty bad battery life. Idle overnight the phone lost 30-50% of battery. I installed betterbatterystatus looking for the wakelocks and here it is.

Looks like it's the call service causing the wakelocks. How do I fix this issue? Please give me some advise. Thanks!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
That looks to be related to the modem files if you are on att and not in Canada ? then the phone might be struggling keeping you connected to the network. You would need to find a way to flash the 910 modem files or switch back to a 910 rom

OK thats good to know because I feel like I got a new phone. Updating to Oreo and doing factory reset fixed network data and call issues I had.
[Palm Treo 750] number16:
Hi all,

My wife's Treo 650 (PalmOS) is dying and she's considering an upgrade to the Treo750. I was very happy to find out that the Treo750 is a HTC device as I began to research on the 750. I have owned an SMT5600 and imate JAM (HTC Magician) before, and now am a proud owner of HTC Touch. I have had very good experience with HTC phones, and honestly I don't think I'll be using another brand ever again in my life ;)

Anyways, even though it will be my wife's phone, I will be the one installing programs, setting it up and tweaking it for her. That's fine, cos I really enjoy it and is the reason why I like PDA-phones. She liked the 650 because it used a Palm OS, which was simpler than WM. But that's fine, as I plan to install launchers that keep things simple and easy for her.

My biggest concern of the 750 though, is it uses a 240x240 screen. I just don't know if I can install regular PPC softwares that are designed for QVGA resolution on it.

She isn't a 'power user' but does require softwares like MSN Messenger, email applications (I use Flexmail), internet browser (Opera Mini is what I use now) as well as the regular PIM applications. I wonder if these software work well in 240x240 resolution.

What's your experience with installing softwares on the Treo750? Is the odd-ball screen size a concern most of the times?

And what's your overall experience with the Treo750?

Thanks in advance,
[Palm Treo 750] unknownly:
Go for it and don't look back. I had an HTC Wizard and the Treo 750 is MUCH easier to use. Not as many roms but the day to day use more than makes up for it. I like to try a lot of software and I've only run into one issue with task switching program, otherwise no issues at all. Good luck.
[Palm Treo 750] IanCT:
I too have an HTC 8525. I bought a Palm 750 off eBay relatively cheap and popped my SIM card in it so I could see if I wanted to use a 750 more than my 8525.

What I like about the 750 is the keyboard in the front, and the one-handedness use of it vs. my 8525 slide out keyboard and thus requires the use of both hands.

What I like about the 8525 is the fact that it DOES have a slide out keyboard and the keys are bigger than the 750. I also like the larger 240 x 320 screen. I REALLY would love that on the 750.

The other thing that was already mentioned is the ROM's. I put vp3G 3.62.3 on my 8525 and it's terrific. I put the WM6.1 ROM on the Treo (HardSPL required) and that is nice too but it could use more features.

All in all, if screen size isn't a show stopper for you, go with the Treo. I would highly recommend loading MagicButton on it so when you close apps, they truly close instead of staying resident in memory and causing you to bring up task manager to end them all. On the 8525 I use HTC X-Button for this. And it includes an awesome task manager on the home screen in the top right corner.

If you do choose an 8525, I don't think you can go wrong. It's a great solid phone.
[Palm Treo 750] jgvcon:
I too went through several smartphones before i landed on a Treo 750. Had the Moto MPX220, the 8125, then finally the Treo 750. I have to be hoenst. The 750 wasn't my first choice, but was forced to due to availablility and the need for the 3G connectivity and for a better QWERTY keyboard. Not that the 8125 keyboard was bad, but was looking for something I could type one handed. However, for the 8 months i had this, it was a very good experience. Now with the upgrade to WM6, it is even better.

I would agree that the screen being the square 240 x 240. It may leave you wanting more screen space, but you or your wife will get used to it. It is still functional, if not with alittle more scrolling in some apps.

The keyboard maybe small, but will get used to it very fast. It's very functional, and being a Treo user already, not much of a transition.

I do want to say that the battery life is not great, barely lasts a day...even with minimal useage. From what I read, it's because the of 3G signal, which is famous for sucking the life out of 3G phones from AT&T, but an extended battery will help greatly. But that will make the phone alittle fatter, but worth it. Not saying that the OEM battery is that bad, but you may want to consider a car charger or take a power plug around.

Other than that, being a WM phone...that opens up alot of free apps that would do nothing by enchance the 750. Would I recommend it now....oh heck yes.

Hope that this helps, and good luck
[Palm Treo 750] number16:
Thanks for all the feedbacks guys ... let's keep them coming! :)

The screensize isn't a problem. She is using the Treo 650 right now, so it's the same screen size. I am more concerned about software compatibility. As long as (most) PPC / WM programs can be installed on the Treo 750 like regular PDA's, I don't mind the smaller screen.

I suggested the TyTn to her, but her problem is she has a bad habit of dropping the phone ... with her current Treo 650, she puts a hard cover on it and it protects it well from falling. With the TyTn's slide out keyboard, there's no cover of any sort available, and a pouch is too much hassle. Without a cover, she's worried the phone will be badly scratched and dented, if not broken within a month.

Her requirement for the next phone is touchscreen (that eliminates all blackberry's and smartphones), hard button QWERTY keyboard and no slide out keyboard (so you can put hard cover on). I thought hard and long about this and the only phone that meet all 3 requirements is the Treo 750.

The 3G doesn't do a lot for her ... she doesn't use the phone as a modem, and her internet use from the phone is limited to emails, MSN Messenger, and occasionally some light surfing. The fact Treo 750 doesn't even have a camera on the front for video calling makes the 3G even more useless for her.

She'd gladly trade 3G for wifi actually, too bad that's not how it comes in. Speaking of wifi, I understand the Treo supports the Spectrum wifi miniSDIO card. My concern is the Spectec mini SDIO card is a little longer than regular SD card from what I know, because of the antenna. Doesn't that prevent the SD card cover from closing?

Wifi is not a must but a nice to have. Other than that, it sounds like Treo is the most likely candidate at this point. Given her 3 requirements, doesn't seem like there are a lot of choices neither.
[Palm Treo 750] hardeep:
Hi there,

My love affair with PDAs,

1. Palm Zire 72 -> Great PDA till screen crack

2. Palm Treo 650 -> So fast, so easy, damn good phone, now my wife is using it and she fell in love with it too

3. HTC Universal -> Major dissapointment, but love the big screen though, nice for Wifi browsing, messaging and video playback, but sucks big time for a phone

5. Palm Treo 750 -> half of what Palm Treo 650 was.... except for 3G functionality and slightly better camera, Treo 650 will top this anytime of the day

My recommendation to you, stick with Palm OS, 300% faster and stable and more sensible, dont worry about applications, the one built in is good enough, but you may want to get ZLauncher, TCPMP apps in.. the Toysoft Lightwav Pro is an excellent piece of call management software for the Palm OS.... There are new Palm OS devices just launched.. can check out those...

Just my 2 cents... :)
