Okay, so long story short, I have a SM-G928A I brought over from ATT to Tmobile. Before, I was running the 6.0 ATT Rom, and WIFI Calling would not enable, although I BELIEVE it was working. (I could see the symbol in the call status screen when I made a call.) You also need Wifi calling to use advanced messaging features. Yesterday I flashed the newest 7.0 ATT Rom to the phone, everything works fine, however Wifi calling still can't be enabled.
I read a couple places that even if I put the TMobile ROM on it, WIFI Calling still won't work. I need some advice. I really want this to work, however the phone is working fine besides that.
Right now I am on G928AUCU4EQC6.
I also read something about flashing a PIT file with the TMOBILE rom, but it was not clear at all, very confusing. I need some advice on what to do next.
Forgot also want to remain on Nougat.
How did you manage to flash ATT rom on it? i've been trying and keep getting "Secure check fail pit" Im on tmobile rom with Nougat 7.0

So, how was the flashing process because people told me that flashing the s6 series was not a good idea since it was not universal like the s7 series. Also, did volte work because that's what I mainly need to enable on my s6 edge which I'm taking from atnt to tmobile
Related
All the experts, I am having where when I click on Wifi calling, it says Enabling and just sits there and does nothing all greyed out
Even moved closer to my WIFI router to see if that fixes the problem but to no avail
I am on Galaxy s6 Edge, TMO, Latest Firmware, Unikernal Root, with .latest XPOSED
I can not seem to get WIFI Calling to work
Please advise what I need to do to fix this if possible .......short of clean re-install
Remember I am rooted so I can go in and make changes you tell me to do if that will fix it all
Thanks Everyone
Wifi calling will only work on a stock unmodified tmobile rom preferably stock firmware.

Hello people finally got back to HTC , long wait from HTC ONE MAX to the M9, so I'm running on cricket- data throttle sucks . But only issue I'm having so far is no VVM , running current OS 6.0 att ruu. Stock no root no soff. Yet... stock art vvm not working , Dow loaded cricket Vvm , still not working , it's trying to sync , text comes comes back as status but fails to provision need some help guys thanks
Cricket vvm does not work with stock roms sadly, att vvm is tightly coupled into the rom and it breaks alot if you remove it. Your only option for vvm is a 3rd party rom without the att crap that you have.
How about getting att vvm working with cricket , or native 6.0 marshmallow vvm
Cricket says it's not going to work since not cricket phone
Thinking of going to go phone
Problem solved after root and Rom flash , man things sure did change from M7- M9. Bootloader is different, then I ran in to the no Sim firmware issue, flashlling the firm ware took a few hours to figure out, then after thinking everything was good to go , get in the road figure let me try the 10 port, twrp is gone
I decided to try the latest U-firmware on my G930V. I had issues with previous G930U builds having SMS/MMS issues. I gave PL2 a shot yesterday and I've been really happy with it. The phone is very snappy and everything works as designed. Verizon visual voicemail can't be used, but it's not a huge deal. VoLTE works well. You can download My Verizon from the Play Store. I'd highly recommend this firmware compared to the previous builds. Make sure to enable the Verizon APN in APN settings after install.
I'd like to note that my phone is completely stock at this point, NOT ROOTED, so I didn't need to apply any fixes to make things work. You should be able to root without issue if that's your thing.
Downloading the firmware from Sammobile takes FOREVER, so I uploaded it to my AFH account to cut down on that download time for you guys.
G930UUEU4APL2
Backup using Smart Switch, then use Odin and flash ALL 4 files. Do yourself a favor and don't use HOME_CSC. It'll make things much smoother if you don't.
Let me know if anyone runs into any issues. I know in the past, some have had great experience with the U-firmware and others had issues with no reception. I want to see if the same holds true for this build.
Is this update in January?
Update: Yup, I took it last month and everything was OK. I am on Verizon Rom now just expecting it receives Nougat earlier than U furmware, which updates quarterly.

I was hoping Verizon would see the official Nougat by this point. I liked the feel of the U-firmware, but reception was a problem for me on Verizon. I decided I'd give the latest U-firm a shot since waiting for official Verizon Nougat seems like a lost cause at this point. I'll stay with this until Nougat is officially released. This firmware is the December update, and since they update it quarterly, an update should be around the corner. Maybe the next U-firmware will be Nougat. I think Nougat-U would be damn near flawless lol.
I've been running it since beginning of January no Issues
What exactly are the benefits of flashing this? Do I get 7.0? How is the reception? What are the cons?
I have a pretty big problem. I attempted flashing the 4 files with Odin 3.09. After a couple of seconds the operation terminated and now my GS7 is stuck in a bootloop. Whats worse is that when i attempted to boot into recovery, now it shows a blue screen with the android logo that says "installing system update" for about 2 seconds then shuts off, then tries again. Does anyone know how to fix this, at least so I can flash stock back on it?
Update: Fixed it, was able to get into download mode and use odin to flash stock. The flash failed but it was able to trip the OS and recovery back to normal for some reason.

No carrier bloat and a very smooth OS. The reception is great. The cons are that you don't get any of the carrier features, like WiFi calling, visual voicemail, ect.

Odin 3.9 might be too old. I've used Odin 3.11 or higher on the S7 and have never had any issues.
thanks to you it works perfectly but HOME_CSC failed and caused recovery bootloop after that i tried other CSC and it was successful. I've got very upset on V firmware because they deleted a lot of features on galaxy S7. they are worst

I'm still having issues with this latest firmwire. I do get LTE but not network connection. I still have circle with a line through it indicating that I don't have service. the service will come on for a second and then cut out. Service is called "123456".
Did you choose the APN to use? If you are using a Verizon SIM card, then it should give you the option to use Verizon, but you need to select it.

So there's APN settings and Network Operators. I'm actually using a verizon MVNO called boom mobile. If I selected "verizon" network, I get a notification that says " no service - selected netweork verizon not available". The other one's that show up from the selection are ATT, T mobile, and some 310830 thing. None of them work. I use automatic network detection.
As far as APN settings, I do use Verizon and I get LTE data from that. I just don't get the phone service connection.

Hmmm. This is passed my level of experience then. I'm only familiar with setting up and using authentic Verizon service. I can't speak for other services that use Verizon's network.

Yes you can.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I was looking into flashing the U firmware for a while and I finally pulled a trigger after seeing this thread.
Everything works well on Verizon and it feels great to have a clean phone & freedom to switch. I think it's worth waiting a little more for Nougat.
p.s. Anyone has an idea on when official G930U Nougat will be released?
Will this work for my AT&T S7 on PJ4 firmware?
jOdin3
hey guys,
this is the first non-nexus phone i've used, and I am excited about flashing the U firmware to get a clean stock experience on my g930v. I was wondering what files i should input in jOdin under the PDA/Bootloader/CSC/Phone fields after I extract the zip file SM-G930U? I have searched tried to watch some insufferable youtube videos on the matter have had no luck finding an answer. Also since I'm asking, is it possible to flash this firmware with jOdin3, sorry for the newbie questions, didn't know where else to go.
Thanks in advance to any helpful replies.
Solved the above, no need for replies.
Next though is when I try and flash using Jodin3 the pit file is acquired, the phone reboots and then it stays disconnected and I am unable to start the process after the phone reboots. Any suggestions?
Solved the above by using heimdall to extact pit.
I am close to giving up and flashing anything via jOdin3 I have tried pretty much everything to flash new firmware with no success, latest error is that there is a corrupt file, need to use Odin file...
HAS ANYONE had success flashing a Verizon S7 on macOS? if so please tell me where to go.

Flash the Verizon firmware from the Verizon threads
Right now you can flash official T-mobile nougat rom for Verizon galaxy s7 (G930V). It's seem everything work fine. Here's how to do that:
- Download official T-mobile nougat rom from updato.com (search for T-mobile nougat rom by enter "G930T" in search field - sorry I cannot post link because of XDA's policies)
- Flash rom to galaxy s7 G930V with odin (like any other 6.0 roms)
Done! Now we have final Nougat on Verizon Galaxy S7 G930V
I've been seeing threads on this and the G930U firmware working as well. Has anyone else tried the tmobile rom this way? No root?
You can flash any rom to any snapdragon S7 as long as you match the correct model. ie don't flash Edge firmware on a regular S7.
Does LTE and VoLTE still work after flashing the tmo rom?

I'm actually pretty excited about doing it this way... Are there any downfalls to flashing the T-Mobile ROM? LTE still working data working no dropped calls? Considering flashing over to this when I get off of work anyway just to try it out would like to know if anyone can confirm everything will still work
Don't we have to flash the verizon csc
If you flash the TMOBILE rom your phone will not work with Verizon and you most likely will not be able to flash back to Verizon until there is a Verizon nougat factory image. With the S7 you cannot flash back to an older bootloader and I would think the TMOBILE nougat rom has a newer bootloader.

I was reading the s7 edge forum. They have a 5th file called boot recovery image file tar. Do we not need that one also. Just asking before I flash this
I think it might be helpful if I address a few things. After using this image for about a day, I decided to go back to the U firmware
- Cellular does not work (duh). Renders the "phone" aspect useless.
- The T-Mobile logo is sickening
- Reverting back to stock is very simple. Just flash the V or U firmware and you're good to go. Same process as flashing the T firmware.

Agreed. I flashed this last night, and I must say the official nougat really looks and feels a lot smoother and prettier than the beta. LOL but I agree to a certain point about the mobile cellular network not working only mine was working, I just had terrible cell signal... And only connected to 3G. No LTE. Also wasn't showing my network, network name was 12345678 lol moral of the story I reverted back lol.
On a side note yes you can flash back to the Verizon firmware. I flash back to the API3 and then back to the nougat beta from there. Smart switched everything back and it's like I never left. Lol

Did you have Wifi Calling after installing new firmware? I got a S7 (SM-G390V) on verizon and switched carriers to tmobile, however i can't send/receive images in text. "wifi calling" has been disabled by evil verizon (doesn't appear)..... i want to flash the firmware to enable it to "hopefully" solve my issue. Just wondering if that will appear afterwards....

ugh...ok. i thought that putting tmobile rom on verizon s7 would display/enable that feature (apps/setting/advanced calling)....need to find another solution for mms images
If i was one of you on the flat screen version i would flash the CSC file and the boot recovery image file from the S7 Edge setup and follow directions there. What can it hurt? If it doesn't work you just oden back to whatever you want. You cant use it as it is anyways as you have no real Verizon data with out those files. It's soo much better than the beta! Only thing i haven't got is WiFi calling and visual voice mail.
Hello. I hope you can help me resolve some issues...
I have the samsung sgh-i747m version. I originally had it rooted on stock 4.4.2 and working with a knowroaming sim. The knowroaming sim would either connect to Rogers, Telus or Bell depending on the signal strength. Mainly Bell in my case. Anyways, I use the sim for whatsapp and it was giving me issues. Namely, notifications would stop working after the phone sits for a while. I read that it might be a problem with 4.4.2 so I decided to update it to 6.0.1. Reason I chose 6.0.1 is because the guide uses the same recovery as I do (CWM) and I'm guessing that since most development has moved on to 7.1, 6.0.1 should be stable?
Anyway, I flashed the ROM and everything seems to work fine except my knowroaming sim no longer works. In other words, it doesn't connect to any network Rogers, Telus, or Bell. For some reason, when I go search for networks, it always says no networks found. So I popped in my Telus sim from my other phone and it connected to the network fine but again, searching for networks shows no networks. I think knowroaming doesn't connect because it can't find any networks either. So I spent some hours looking to see what the problem is and some of the jargon is starting to confuse me and making me hate Samsung for the things they do.
I managed to download an app called Phone Info *Samsung* and I will list the information here and maybe you can tell me what is going on:
If you have any suggestions on what I should do to get the network providers showing up, then I'm all ears. If updating to a 7.1.2 rom will fix this issue, I'll gladly do it.
Thanks.
Nobody?
Replace Cwm with twrp and try a different custom ROM?
I tried the octa-m rom 7.1.2 and still the same thing. I'm going to go back to stock and try again.
