Has anyone been able to get WiFi calling or VOLTE to work on the U firmware? I haven't been on it in a while.
Edit: not sure why i quoted you for this question. Lol sorry.
I have been trying to get it working as well. I wish that att would support wifi calling like T-Mobile does I only get 1-2 bars and sometimes no signal when I'm at a certain spot in my workplace and when I had the original att software on my phone I loved wifi calling, I don't particularly miss VOLTE though
Thank you so much for doing this. I was using the wrong Odin to flash.
Quick question on this. Now that I am running the U firmware, will I get OTA updates? I'm using a Cricket sim card.
I hated the AT&T firmware so much. I'm so much happier with this.

Need to flash T-Mobile firmware in order for at least wifi calling to work.
after flashing this firmware.. I noticed a huge gain in performance.
and mobile hotspot works, I run cricket unlimited, and will come in handy.
I like the clean appearance and the smooth responsiveness, I used the AT&T firmware and I used PDP to disable a ****load of bloat, but nothing like this smooth.
not to mention I'm getting updates, which I'm more happy about.
this is really nice to have.
Had anyone tried this and used on rogers?
loganbeck14 said:
To begin make sure you have samsung usb drivers installed. Now make sure you use Princecomsys modified odin, next download the latest U Firmware from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634768085 or here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767159704. Next put your phone in download mode and open odin make sure all firmware files are in the right spot and click start wait until your phone boots into recovery mode and restarts, after that to clean up old temp files factory reset in recovery when your phone boots to the welcome screen, after that you are finished. THIS is For att and tmobile phones only unless your verizon phone is using one of the two carriers sprint won't work due to proprietary activation processes. Thanks to Princecomsy and muniz for providing odin and the firmware files for this version

As long as you had att unlock the phone you are fine
I bought it "factory unlocked" so I'm not sure who did it. What would happen if att didn't unlock it?
Please help me understand
I see some forums on this site that says, " G930UUEU2APEH flashes to g930a" then you have this post that says G930U firmware on SM-G930A. It seems as if one is saying to take the G930U and go to G930A and the other saying G930A and go to G930U. I thought the advantage is to go to the U and get off the A. Please confirm if this is the case. Granted then if this is the case... then, what are the advantages of going to the U? From what I understand it gets rid of the bloatware, and makes it so you can tether?
Also once I go, are there any negative reasons for me not to go from A to U?
Does this give me the current version of Nougat?
Do I get the upgrades from AT&T to keep up with future version of Nougat?
Also before proceeding to the U version MUST I first ROOT my phone?
Also MUST my phone be UNLOCKED?
Thanks in advance,

Yes to both

None, unless you like the ATT bloat.

Gives you the latest version of the U firmware
Do I get the upgrades from AT&T to keep up with future version of Nougat?
No, you will get the U OTAs from now on.

Root is not required

I flashed the TMobile firmware leaving me stuck on Bootloader 4. I found a site, paid the $15 and downloaded this U firmware hoping it work. It indeed did, leaving me on PI3 U firmware. I used the modded Odin in the root thread. Flashed all the files in their appropriate slots in Odin, and as a habit did a factory wipe/reset in recovery before first boot. Running great!
I loaded them to my Google Drive for anyone who may need them:

Is battery life improved with this firmware? I'm flashing it right now on my S7 so I'm curious.
Just finished with flashing this firmware from ATT PH1 to U PI1.. was able to rooted.. i have no idea abt the battery life yet.. will check this later but i have plm with text messaging... i cant send but able to receive from anybody...
Sending messages works for me.
EDIT:I'm not rooted, so I'm not sure if that's your problem.
okay, tried to reflash this U PI1 and did not rooted this time and send texts are no good.. i guess i gotta to wait for ATT firmware.... i will try to change APN to match my dad's real att s7...

Yeah, I was about to suggest changing your APN to match AT&T's correct settings.
Did checked APN.. they are matched.. i think its SMCS is messing up somehow.. i grabbed Gosms pro app. Its working to send godd*mn texts.. i guess use this app for now until i melt this issue. Will check my dad's SMSC later.
Mine are sending fine so idk what it could be
yay! i melted send texts issue!.. i went to check my dad's message setting and take his number of Message center and set it on mine then reboot then finally i can send text...
Is this firmware better for gaining root access? I've seen it mentioned once or twice in the root thread.

Hello Guys,
I can't see how could be possible to download a "Porto Rico" (H820PR) software in ATT version.
Normally, Bootloader checks if region code matches before flash.
Could you please explain more about this procedure?

I have an Unlocked S8 Plus on T-Mo. Yes, WiFi calling works out of the box.
I've not heard a definitive answer about the MIMO or QUAM 256 (I think that is what it's called?). I know if you flash T-Mo software, it all works, but I dont know 100% if the LATE advanced stuff works on the unlocked firmware.
I will probably switch to the T-Mo software personally, since I live in one of the LATE Advanced trifecta areas, and honestly the T-Mo firmware is bloat free. The only thing they add is the T-Mobile app, the Device Unlock app, and a T-Mobile boot screen/sound.
If you don't want the T mobile apps/bloat flash the The XAA AP, XAA BL, and the TMO CSC. you can flash either the XAA or TMO CP(doesn't matter). you will have the unlocked firmware with no carrier apps baked in and still have the TMO features like wifi calling, RCS video calling and advanced messaging. will also have the TMO dialer instead of the unlocked dialer app. you will however have the TMO boot up splash screen. works, looks, acts just like a stock t mobile device minus the stupid t mobile apps. if you flash the TMO AP or USERDATA files, you will get the TMO apps. when both XAA and TMO updates are both released, you can then reflash the latest files together in the same sequence above per future software updates

The reason why it is failing is because you are on a high boot loader, you current on V3 while the U1 firmware that you was trying to flash is on V2.. You can only flash firmware that's on the same boot loader.
You would need to download G965U1UEU3ARG7 and flash it in order to be on the U1 firmware...

I don't believe the ARG7 for the U1 hasn't been released yet. I'm still on ARF4, I haven't gotten any updates for ARG7 yet.
But you can get the firmware using the link below when it becomes available. It's the same one I used.

To be honest it takes as long as it takes... Though for the U1 firmware it does appear to be the last one released after the carriers.
I would imagine that before they release a firmware that covers all the carriers they want to make sure it works for the individual carriers... But that's a theory/speculation I have.

First time I have ever heard of a Sprint Lease Lock.. Now I am curious over what that is, so off to google searching for it.
Think I found what your talking about... I am not sure if flashing the U1 firmware will work in this case given it's an S9+ and not an S8. Hopefully it does when the appropriate U1 firmware is released.
Depending on where you got the phones from maybe try doing a return and get a refund?

No biggie... Just for clarification (if it helps in the future) you can only flash files with the same bootloader version as what is currently installed. You can also flash bootloader versions that are higher then what is currently installed on the device.
What you can not do is flash bootloader versions lower then what is currently installed.
Finding the bootloader version is easy once you know how. Using the firmware version indicated:
G965USQU3ARG7
The bootloader version is the number before the last 4 characters of the firmware version... In this your looking for the number before ARG7... Since the number is 3 it means this firmware uses the version 3 bootloader.

To carrier switch you would need to flash the U1 firmware, then insert the carrier of your choice [not Sprint] then set up device, after download the latest U firmware which is 3SARI4 and flash it.
Do not flash the USERDATA unless it is for the carrier you switching to
I ordered an unlocked model, G965U1 from eBay, but the seller sent me a G965U Verizon. At least that's the firmware that it has on it. I'm familiar with Odin and everything, so I'm wondering if I should keep it and just flash it over to what I want. Is this a viable option, I already had to send back a OnePlus 6T back to OnePlus, so I'm getting kind of tired of sending phones back.
Will the phone be just as good as what I ordered if I flash a different firmware on it, radio band-wise and such?The phone says I do not have a Verizon sim in it but I seem to be getting service from my T-Mobile sim.... Is this because all Verizon phones come unlocked? Sorry I'm just so confused with a different models and different bootloaders and different firmwares, so any advice would be appreciated!
Issue resolved, big thanks to user @jcsww!

What firmware does the phone have, from what US carrier? I I think the only thing you can try is flashing different firmwares to see if it will work. Maybe try converting it to a U S. factory unlocked G965U1, then the phone will reboot to configure the settings and features according to your sim card. No guarantee with this kind of thing tho.
I have ore 8.0 and the phone is from sprint but unlocked.i thin is from sprint cause i have sprint omadm

You could try switching to the firmware for unlocked model G965U1, latest is 3ARJ6. No guarantee that it will make volte work though, that kind of thing is definitely hit and miss, and your phone is ideally suited for American carriers. But that's what I would try. You might also want to call up your service provider and see if they can do anything.

My phone is a sprint version and is unlocked.When i start up my phone i have a notification"sprint omdam",I have SQS3BRJ6 software version.On this i have to put U1 version(3ARJ6)? I have to flash with odin patched or nonpatched because i want the feature updates?

I flashed my Verizon G965U to G965U1. I used the patched Odin and used the CSC from the U1 firmware... My phone flashed and wiped, and then it booted up and detected my SIM card, then it rebooted again to configure all the settings based on my SIM card. After I did that I was getting the U1 updates directly to the phone.
Thanks!you can give me the variant of odin and soft to flash for my phone?

I don't remember exactly where I got them but they are easy to find by searching. I remember the Odin file ended in patcheD.zip. For the firmware I believe I used the Samfirmware site.
why is necesarily patched odin?

I believe it's because you are flashing a firmware that does not match what is already on your phone.
