Hello there XDA Members,
I have a massive problem and I hope someone in this forum is able to help me, I have an S6 Edge SM-G925F, I recently broke my phone and sent it to repair they repaired it and installed firmware that is non EE therefore I lost my WiFi Calling feature, I was like okay let me just flash the EE firmware unfortunately due to the bootloader they installed being newer then the one from the EE firmware it wont let me install (SW B: 2 K: 4 S: 4) this means that the firmware I am trying to install is older and samsung bootloader wont let me, now I want to know if there is a way I can:
1) Downgrade Bootloader or get it to accept this firmware
2)Have EE WiFI calling another way
3)Install EE WiFi calling onto the phone somehow
My phone is on version 6.0.1

hi friends, i need your help again, i have in my hands one galaxy s6 tmobile but one person install android 6.0.1 in this phone, i see one metod, installing one update of one samsung galaxy s6 of metropcs, but this metod no work in this phone, i can dowgrade to android 5.0.1?? or i can istall cwm in this phone?? any help thanks
Try using the new Cellular South firmware thats out and flash it on the phone, its 6.0.1 MM. Go to Sammobile to download.
Oh man, I've been waiting for this firmware! I had a TXAR phone that I flashed the T-Mobile version to, and surprise(!), it locked my previously unlocked phone.
I use Net10 for prepaid service, and they use both sets of towers, so it was easy to switch sims, but I want to put an ATT sim back in for better coverage.
Thanks for letting me know about this.
OR you could try my method.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6/help/sim-unlock-t3374445
can I flash Canadian firmware (SM-N920W8) on a SM-N920T from t-mobile?
I find it hard to believe nobody can answer this question.
I am with Rogers but purchased the phone outright as a refurb and would like to take advantage of their wifi calling but cannot with t-mobile firmware
How about changing the CSC and if that is possible, how to do?
guess not huh?
I'd love to get an answer to this question. I bought a Note 5 that was originally TMobile and now I'm using it in Canada on freedom mobile. The phone was working great until a few weeks ago when I tried to remove the root that was on it and now I'm stuck in a bootloop. I've tried to flash the N920W8 firmware from Canada but it fails... the backof the device says N920W8.. but when it connects to twrp it says its a N920T.
Guess I should try the 920T firmware with odin... ?

Did you wipe system?
i would like an answer as well. have a note 5 bought here in Canada that was branded tmobile. but unlocked. tried flashing a rom and have had nothing but problems with imei/csc/service with sim card ever since. flashed stock n920t firmware 3 times with 3 different up-to-date firmware files and it hasn't fixed the issue. oddly enough i found out the number on the phones back is actually n920v so it's been rebranded once already. apparently because all phone info and twrp say it's n920t . will flashing Verizon firmware fix this? also if it's already been done once why can't i make the system n920w8 instead of n920t? how was it done than? or can i flash international rom ? really need to get service/imei/baseband/csc in working order. i can't afford a new phone .... so many questions...
Hi all,
I bought the Galaxy S6 from AT&T when it came out, but switched over to T-Mobile from AT&T last year. Because of this, I have been unable to get any updates and have been stuck on Android 6.0 when the current release is android 7.0, so I've been thinking of flashing my phone. I was curious as to whether I'm able to flash my G920A with Tmobile's G920T rom? Would it work? And if so, after I flash it, would I be able to receive updates normally from T-mobile's servers, as I'm currently using a T-mobile sim, or would I have to flash every subsequent update?
Thanks
Doubtful, since AT&T has a locked bootloader. If the bootloader was unlocked you might be able to try.

You cannot flash a G920T firmware on a G920A. First off, Odin won't let you because the G920T firmware is only signed to be flashed on the G920T.
And even if you somehow rooted and used FlashFire to force the firmware onto your device, the firmware would brick the device, and without a USB jig or SD card port, the brick would be permanent.

I too am seeking answers on this as I have an SM-920A I brought over to t-mobile. Unlocked the phone, installed the t-mobile SIM and the phone works fine, except, it still has all the old ATT apps I no longer need or desire to be there AND without the T-Mobile apps installed, I cannot use their LTE Signal Booster. Is there any way I can install these t-mobile apps that would have come with the SM-920T load?

Just do this and remove the AT&T apps you don't want completely.

Hi i am new here and need help with updating my Samsung note 9 i still have a baseband N960USQS1ARI5 but will like to update to the latest firmware. i'm using an unlocked AT&T phone. can anyone guide me? I'm not sure if updating the firmware will lock the phone and the process to update, do I just update the firmware in stages as the updates were released till i get to the latest update or can i update straight up to the latest? I am thinking of using Odin, is that a safe way to do this? any help will be appreciated. Lastly, can I change from the AT&T firmware to lets say a none carrier based firmware so as to stop seeing the AT&T logo on boot up? Maybe switch to a firmware that supports global or international? Does anyone have links to an unlocked firmware update i can use, as well? Please help!
I must state that the phone never updates automatically as it always says the software is up to date.

to your last point, at&t phones are notoriously bad at updating
factory unlocked phones will remain forever unlocked and phones unlocked that are bespoke to a specific carrier will also remain unlocked even with Odin flashes providing that the method employed to unlock it was legitimate. Some unlock methods employ root and only trick the phone into thinking its unlocked. Well, once you remove root, and thusly the trick, the unlock is gone. I have ran across rare examples where the person swore up and down that they unlocked their phone with a legit unlock code and that it relocked to a carrier once the sim was inserted and initial programming completed, but i dunno. Sounds weird to me, but every person who said this also said that the phone locked to a carrier other than the one it came from originally. Take that for what its worth, but i still mostly stand by the first couple lines of this section of my diatribe
If you want the at&t crap gone, get the N960U1 firmware and flash it in Odin. You will need the modified version of Odin to flash it so it can ignore the 255 errors the phone throws up from flashing firmware for a carrier (or, in this case, no carrier) on to a phone that it wasnt originally designated (not designed) for
go to sammobile.com/firmwares, get the info for the firmware you want to d/l, get the Frija tool or Samfirm and download the firmware thru one of those as theyre literally 5x faster and flash it
