THIS IS FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY J7 METRO PCS VERSION. DO NOT FLASH ON OTHER VARIANTS.
If you have messed up your system while trying to root and need J700T1UVU3AQC3 firmware to recover, or if you just need to upgrade to the latest firmware, here is the official unmodified Rom:
Download link:
https://mega.nz/#!ltcgwYLZ!R0n3FyaDUCtY8yiMrppFpbxNaSHnjiSUZSMQiU_o-kk
1- The firmware is on Mega servers. Please use a PC to download. If you have to use your mobile device to download, use the Mega app or set your browser to "desktop".
2- The firmware files are zipped. They should be unzipped and flashed via Odin.
3- This version upgrades the bootloader version to 3 and therefore downgrading to previous versions becomes impossible. So if you are happy with your current firmware and you think you may change your mind after the upgrade, stay away from this.
3- Rooting this firmware is possible through flashing TWRP via Odin and then superSU via TWRP. As I am sure you are well aware, that process will trip your Knox flag and renders your warranty void.
4- As usual, I share this with you AS IS and I have no responsibility if it breaks your phone. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I was having network problems..calls kept disconnecting and phone would freeze. I restored my twrp backup with no issues.

Are the TMo and Metro devices interchangeable yet? In other words a Tmo sim in a Metropcs phone and vice versa?

It's your encrypting file system.its where your imei is stored and other super important stuff and unique to your specific phone's serial number alone. And tethered to your carriers signal

The EFS stuff really scares me when it comes to flashing. With that said. Where can i download the latest rom for metropcs. Sammobile only appears to have T-Mobile from the last time i checked. Does not hurt to have it at hand just in case.

I'm not sure on that man look up some other firmwares for metro just to kinda compare..I don't want to steer u wrong. But updato saved me so much stress and time.
Yup, it's the correct one lol.

Hey guys. Are any of you experiencing random reboots on the latest firmware? My phone randomly reboots for no reason. It has done this several times and the 2 times i can remember was 1. Phone rebooted when i was connecting to wifi. 2. It also did a reboot while in a middle of a game. What gives?

The metro qc3 works nice in the T-Mobile and does not harm it any way, I did mine , no problem
Rooting is a problem with this security 3 since no TWRP is working with this version yet. But there is a eng root boot.img out which does the job, they charge 50 USD for this file.

I have t mobile.i flashed this firmware once with flash fire, and then once with odin.lost my efs both times. I had someone send me the t mobile one and it was fine, I flashed the same twrp and it was like normal. I don't know if someone uploaded a different version of twrp or what, but the ones that have been on xda for the past 8 months do the job fine. I switch between the twrp for the j7, then the j700T specific twrp. I don't run stock, but all the roms I run with this twrp and all 3 kernels I use in development I also root through these recoveries.
@ Droid, what ROM are you running?
My Tmobile j700t qc3 had no issues when using j700t1 qc3 all was good. But twrp not working with qc3. Maybe yours was different firmware. But looking at other Samsung Tmobile and Metro pcs I never had an issue cross flashing them. Maybe you used not compatible firmware when you Lost efs , usually that happens when using lower bit or wrong modem file.

Help.........!!!
Can jump from version G925AUCS5DPK5 to this version ? when flash is stuck in odin, is there any way to do it, stays in file analysis for a long time but does not load, any idea how to fix it?:crying:
Here's everything I've tried
1) Change USB port
2) Administrator mode
4) Rebooted phone
5) rebooted computer
...... any other idea ?
Does this require a phone to be on a specific version before flashing? Just want to be sure everything is good to go before moving forward.
**Edit** found answer by searching. (sorry to jump post heheh

Now it´s working, I unzip all 4 files to md5, and then load the ROM successfully, but it stuck on black screen for about 30 min and never started, I had to go down to the previous version now with imei corrupt and now my cell phone no longer has signal, I do not know what went wrong or where I was wrong?
I flash this files in my g925aucu4dph5 phone, I will upgrade to nougat? What about ADB files? Do you have a video tutorial to this process?
just received my g925a 128GB version, currently has the build number LMY47X.G925AUCU3BOJ7, can i use Odin 3.10.6 and just flash this on it after zipping all 4 files down to md5? (bl, ap, cp, csc)??/
I'mgoing to assume it will not b rootabe after this? If so, to what firmware can i. should i update to so that I may root as flash some other ROM? What I really want to accomplish is just rid myself of all the AT&T bloat, as I do not use AT&T.......and would like to be a more newer version of android then 5.1.1
excuse of it seems nubish, but been using OnePlus One for 3 years now, and stumbled upon getting this phone on a great deal on getting this phone for $240.....so new to the samsung scene, but not to the rooting/bootloading unlocking flashing scene....
Also saw that another poster lost his storage flashing odin....something not cool on a 128gb device and another lost his imei....not cool either
Thanks for the update! Worked beautifully. Now waiting for may update.
Once you load these are we supposed to get updates from ATT? I ask b/c when I hit update it never finds anything and I don't have the most current OS I have the previous to current using these methods to update
has anybody done this without losing original storage or imei??? have a 128GB att edge and would not want this error to occur on mine...still in 5.1.1 build OJ7....
localization of 7.0 AT&T
Hi guys. Sorry for possible offtopic, but I have a guestion for people who upgraded to Android 7 on this device:
Is there any changes in localizations list? Can this phone switch to russian language?

Hi,
I just got this phone (same phone I had to replace the one that died)::
Samsung Galaxy (SM-N910T) Note 4 (QualComm)
Marshmallow 6.0.1
It's Unlocked.
Anyway, before I could install TWRP so I could Root it, Android Firmware Updates started coming through. I figured let them install and that way I'd have them. I knew that if I tried to install them after installing TWRP, it would just replace TWRP anyway.
After the last Update, the Build is now...
Build #: MMB29M.N910T3UVU3EQI2
I have tried TWRP 3.0.2.0 & 2.8.7.0 and even PhilZ 6.59.0 but nothing will go on! Odin (latest and tried older one) starts to Flash it, it says "Recovery" and then it says, "FAIL".
I'm thinking it's gotta have something to do with the Updates to Marshmallow???
PLEASE HELP! I can't do anything that I need to do without it Rooted and I can't Root it without a Custom Recovery.
Thanks!

From what I know, the bootloader isn't locked but I recommend installing a KitKat bootloader Using this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ws-want-to-downgrade-to-4-4-4-kitkat-t3447773
From there you can install TWRP and/or update to qg1, qe2, or older.

First, thank you for responding!
I used that page on my last Note 4 (it died, hardware failure), after I tried MM but hated the Ext SD handling and so I went back down to the T2 KK ROM on that page and it worked fine (I installed the entire ROM). But my replacement Note 4 that just arrived already had MM as I said and updated to a Build # I haven't seen.
But if you look at the Build #, T-Mobile seems to have (via the Updates) turned the phone into a "N910T3" instead of a "N910T". Weird! Especially since I'm with MetroPCS. Hahaha! They're owned by T-Mobile though, use the same Towers, etc..
Anyway, I'd like to try and stick with MM this time around.
But you did hit one of my grey areas.
Let me see if I understand you correctly... If I were to Flash just the KK BL, my phone would/would not continue to Boot into Marshmallow as it is now, if I Flashed nothing but that?
Or am I correct in saying that your method would mean taking the phone back, so that it would be running KitKat and then going back up to Marshmallow using a different ROM that TWRP will be able to go onto?
The reason I'm fuzzy, is because I've never Flashed just a BootLoader, so I'm not sure what would happen if I Flash just the KK BootLoader onto an MM ROM and Reboot???
Thank you again for your time!

This method will turn your phone temporarily to a t2, of which a mm Rom will not boot. Since your goal is to have TWRP on a MM Rom, I would do the following:
1. Flash the t2 KK bootloader.
2. Find your appropriate KK bootloader (ie if you have a 910t find a 910t bootloader) and flash it
3. Flash TWRP
4. Flash a MM bootloader and modem.

Is this a method you've tried B4?
I'll check out that thread and see if they've got an MM Modem too.
Isn't that the "EFS" part of a ROM? If so, there are EFS Backup apps. But they may require Root though.

There is an MM ROM that is Rooted and has TWRP built in, but I don't know if it would Flash over this with Odin or not
I am also considering trying the entire KK T2 ROM again to go down to KK and then Flashing that MM ROM.
It has both Odexed & DeOdexed. If I remember right, DeOdexed is the better choice, right?
Thanks for all your time and help!

Hi,
You know what's sad, is that if I could somehow Roog it without TWRP, then I could use the way awesome "Flashify" app to try to get TWRP on this phone! <lol>

Could you please tell me where the files are that you used, so that I can have the exact same ones to work with? I looked at the link you provided, but I couldn't find just the BootLoader in it. I saw where someone requested just the BootLoader and Modem (you?) and "Trex888" said he would upload them right away and provide a link, but I did not see one ever posted. Just the link for the entire ROM.
Btw, in Odin, if you're Flashing only the BootLoader, do you use the "BL" button instead of the "AP" (formerly "PDA") button? What about just the Modem (thru Recovery?)?
I just tried Flashing the entire T2 KK ROM that I had used to go back from MM to KK on my first Note 4, but this one wouldn't take that either. It immediately said "FAIL".
I'm sorry if I'm a pain. It's just that I'm disabled and constantly laying on my side, so a laptop is out for regular use and so this phone is my main and only communication with the outside world. What I'm saying is that it's not a hobby phone and I have to get it right, because (see below). So I don't want to Flash something that may not do it, so I want to exactly match what you did.
You see, I can only sit up to Flash from Odin on my Windows computer with my phone cabled to it for just so long because of my condition.
Not your problem, I know. But I'm explaining it to you so that you can understand that I'm not just trying to be lazy. But instead, I need to make sure I do exactly what worked for you, with exactly those files, because if something goes wrong, it could take me days of short time computer access due to my situation (too much overwhelming pain) to figure it out and get it (hopefully) fixed. So you can see the importance, no doubt.
This phone right now (see Build #) says it's a T3, but whatever works.
Right now, it's without Recovery so I can't Root it, so I can't get Write access to my Ext SD, etc.. I need to Root!
Also, this T3 MM ROM is having issues with the Display. Sometimes it'll get all chopped up and I have to Reboot.
So anyway, I need to get this done and I would very much appreciate your further help!
Thank You!!!

Okay. Here is what I did exactly.
Download my Files here: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AJEa3D0cBAhIbQ
Stock 910T files here https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=20602
i guess if you need any other stock files sammobile works.
This will reset your phone!
1) Odin flash the AOG1 file. this turns the phone into a t2 phone.
2) Odin the ANK4 rom. this returns the phone to a 910t.
3) Boot into the ANK4 rom and download the MM update. This should land you on the first MM update, EPE3
4) Flash TWRP, thourgh AP, which should work. Might as well flash superSU or magisk.
At this point i would wipe everything and install a custom rom, but you could update to a newer boot loader and modem using the BL and CP buttons, respectively.
hope this helps

Thank you for responding!
The OG1 is the T2 ROM that I had just tried and reported that unlike my previous Note 4, it would not Flash on this one to turn it into a KK T2. I also tried the other 2 ROMS to no avail.
I think it's because this one says it's a T3.
Thanks,

I'm sorry man I did everything that I could think of. I knew that the T3 had a few issues with bootloaders and downgrading and stuff, but wow, i didn't know about these issues. Good luck with trying something else then.

No, I'm sorry, but you have to give me the answer.
All seriousness aside, I depreciate all your effort.
I can only think of one thing left to try... Go to Sammy's site and get the Lollipop 5.1.1 ROM and see what happens. It can't hurt to try, right?
I'll let ya know what happens and thank you again!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Guess what? I decided to take a picture of my phone's screen after it Failed to let me Flash anything at all in Odin. I tried TWRP again and this time read what my phone responds with and it says the following:
Custom Binary (Recovery) Blocked By FRP LOCK
Does that mean anything to you?

Well I searched around XDA and it seems to be a problem exclusive to the T3. Try going to settings -> security and see if there is a option to disable resetting protection. Or see if there is a way to disable OEM locking. However it's probably not there. The only successful thread I found was this

If all else doesn't work, perhaps you could repartition your phone. You need a pit file and a few ROMs

Hi,
I just got this phone (same phone I had to replace the one that died)::
Samsung Galaxy (SM-N910T) Note 4 (QualComm)
Marshmallow 6.0.1
It's Unlocked.
Anyway, before I could install TWRP so I could Root it, Android Firmware Updates started coming through. I figured let them install and that way I'd have them. I knew that if I tried to install them after installing TWRP, it would just replace TWRP anyway.
After the last Update, the Build is now...
Build #: MMB29M.N910T3UVU3EQI2
I have tried TWRP 3.0.2.0 & 2.8.7.0 and even PhilZ 6.59.0 but nothing will go on! Odin (latest and tried older one) starts to Flash it, it says "Recovery" and then it says, "FAIL".
I'm thinking it's gotta have something to do with the Updates to Marshmallow???
PLEASE HELP! I can't do anything that I need to do without it Rooted and I can't Root it without a Custom Recovery.
Thanks!
Dave

That's weird. I updated my N910T to EQI2 with Odin, rooted using CF-Auto-Root for N910T and then flashed TWRP 3.1.1 and I had no problems at all

But you updated to it. From KK?
KK doesn't have it and it's not in downloadable ROMS.
But if MM is already on the phone (mine), then it has FRP. See my other response.

Thank you for looking! I found out what it is.
It's "Factory Reset Protection" (FRP)
What it does, is keep someone else from Factory Resseting your phone if they steal it. When they reset it, during setup, they have to type in the last Google Email and Password that the phone used, before they can set up theirs.
After reading that, I remembered having to put my Google Info in at two separate points and seeing it telling me to "Verify", but I was just blowing right through setup, not reading all of the small print. I mean hey, I had no idea that even existed and was just annoyed that I had to type the same thing twice!
It will only be found on phones that already have Lollipop and up on them out of the box and probably not all of them yet. And you don't have to worry about downloadable ROMS, so those who have phones that started with KitKat, or even early versions of Marshmallow 6.0 or 6.0.1 would not have seen this happen to them. Even those who updated to the same version of Mm that my phone has won't, if they started with KK or an older MM and then updated to it.
Again, this is something that your phone would have "Out of the Box" and the phone (not all) would have at least L on it.
Just FYI, it's not just Samsung, either.
Just FYI, I have confirmed this info. It is a fact.
Once I have an easy to do, working fix, hopefully without having to perform a Factory Reset, I will "Create A Thread" and as normal for me, write clear and easy, step by step (not leaving any out) instructions on how to "Unlock FRP" and then come back here and post a link to the thread. Hopefully this week.
This phone will not beat me!!!

hey guys I was able to get the modem pulled from a moto z2 that has the ocx27.1 update.. if you run this flash all it will reinstall ocx27 with the latest modem allowing you to once again use your phone.
Please note that this will wipe your phone
Also note that your baseband will stay empty untill your phone fully boots up into android

I haven't figured it out yet. I haven't really tried, I'm on bell so I just flashed the retail ROM

Thank you for this. Worked great. I had a worthless brick after trying to install Magisk. :|
my Moto Z2 Force is locked with t-mobile modem but it is the retail model how do I unlock it Have I tried several ways and I could not ??

some weeks ago downgrade my z2 and loose baseband, with this phone come back to life :,v
thanks, thank you very much
Saved my phone
Thanks! This is exactly what I needed to get my baseband re-installed.
Is SPRINT available? my phone is oreo,OTA loses IMEI after March security update...
Back on update path
Any T-mobile guys figure out how to get updates to install after flashing this, I tried flashing another firmware after this and lost baseband again.
Edit: I ended up flashing the XT1789-04_NASH_TMO_C_8.0.0_OCX27.109-36_subsidy-TMO_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml with the OreoFlashAllUtilities then I edited a FlashAll.bat and used it to flash NASH_TMO_C_OCX27.109-51_subsidy-TMO_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml. rebooted and it started updating to the latest update and made it through 100%.

How did you edited FlashAll.bat?
Is this any different than using the frankin update that combit both sprint and tmobile firmware?
Mine atm show
Android 8.0
Current version: ocxs27.1.3
Security patch level may 1 2018
Kindly send me the flashing procedure for this rom
Not working on me. Still no sim, no wifi, no IMEI.
I'm on tmo variant. Also, don't we need modem.img? Why the flashall.bat don't include it? I checked. Anyway, I edited and include it: still not working.
P.s.should I use a particular flashall ?

I Downloaded The Fw From Sammobile, Yes Its Was Very Slow, Thats Why I Re-upped It Untouched To Androidfilehost, Much Faster To Dl For Others.
Only For Snapdragon Variants, Its The Universal Firmware, Its Free Of Carrier Bloat But Has Some Samsung Useless Apps.
Not For Exynos Variants Like The Sm-g935f, Etc.
MORE ABOUT UNIVERSAL FW READ THIS
The Zip Has The Att Extension But All Universal Snapdragon Fw Are The Same Afaik, It Does Not Install Anything Specific For Att,
Im On Telus/koodo Using The Sm-g935a Without Issues, Shows Lte Signal When On Data Mode.
Idk If Auto Updates Work, Although Update Options Are Available From The System Menu
Instructions:
Dl Zip, Extract Zip, Put Phone In Dl/odin Mode. Run Odin As Admin, And Load Each Cp, Ap, Bl And Csc(Dont Use The Home Csc As I Read Its Fracks Things Up), Just Use "Csc_oym" File In Odin
Fyi. I Used Princes Odin But Failed, Used Untouched Odin And It Flashed Successfully. Was On Nougat 7.0 Sim Unlocked SM-G935A At&t Branded Stock Fw. I Included Both For Your Pleasure.
Afaik It Will Wipe Your Phone, Do A Backup As Needed
make a backup by using adb, search for this method, and a twrp nandroid

Hi Vincom, yes i have already read the article. the main reason im flashing the rom is because of the hidden DATA icon in the toggle screen. and also i want my phone to have the OREO update as well. this is my first samsung phone. i have experience in flashing ROMs in my xiaomi redmi 1s phone. so im a bit skeptical if i can do this on my own. this odin process is very new to me. so what is the worst thing that can happen it i brick my phone? can i do a hard reset and will it default to the stock AT&T ROM if ever?

odin is as easy as it gets, its made for samsung phones.
safe is to do nothing if ur happy as is.

yes and no, csc controls what bloatware and which settings are setup by default dependant on carrier and country, hence why this is a universal fw and not dependant on original csc files.
if u truly have the att s7edge g935a, which is what i had, then yes.

i finally finished downloading the zip file earlier. i will flash it later after i go home from work. and one other thing i need to make sure. with this Oreo rom, the DATA connection icon will be available in the toggle screen right?
@vincom, this Oreo rom has already the DATA icon to be toggled on/off right? this is one of the reason i want to flash the att rom as well.

@vincom, initially got an error sha256 when i started to flash it. and my phone started to boot loop after i use a different odin, the prince odin. but after some searching. i fount out i just need to use the newer patch version of odin - Odin3 v3.13.1_3B_PatcheD and now im running Oreo on my s7 edge. hopefully this can help others too.

yup i tried that one the first time. thats when it gave me the error message sha256. then i tried the prince odin that gave me the error mmc something.
The author claims performance and battery improvements but has anyone that switched over really noticed that big of a improvement?
I mean i already disabled all the carrier bloat with adhell isn't that basically the same as installing this rom? Does the universal maybe have a different kernal/different system level tweaks?
Bro , what will happen if my unlocked at&t s7edge installing this ? Is there sim will be locked again or not ? Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english...
