Has anyone found any working links to download the XAR version for US firmware for SM-T820? I can not find them anywhere. Would like to attempt root but definitely want the firmware to fall back on. If anyone has a link to the firmware it would be much appreciated

I used the BTU(UK) firmware, no issues, just changed the keyboard from UK to US.

I'm also running BTU/UK firmware in lieu of my native XAR. Aside from my tablet devoloping a somewhat charming Brittish accent, I have had/noticed any issues.
Thanks, I will DL that one just in case.
Guys, I have a US device (t820) and just tried to install a European firmware. Whatever I do it won't allow me. I get an error unsupported dev_type (installing all the components of the firmware, BL, CSC, AP). Actually, downloaded the US firmware from the xda forum and that cannot be installed as well. hmmm

Did you just install the UK version through odin without bootloader and can? I am getting error all the time. Not sure if I need to do something in addition (oem unlocked).

I was doing that as well. Still getting an error. Did you install via odin? Are you rooted? Somebody told me to install via flashfire.

You may want to try this Odin version: Odin3_v3.12_PrinceComsy.zip

Like the previous post suggested, you may want to check which version of ODIN you are using - also have you turned on OEM Unlock in Developer Settings?

Thank you. I will give it a try today. OEM Unlock is enabled. One more question, which of the two CSC files should I use, there is which has HOME as part of the file name. Thanks in advance.
I'm wondering if someone here can assist me. I picked up the 128GB version of the Tab S3 at my local Best Buy. I flashed TWRP and Magisk and didn't have any. Then I decided to try out the Flash v1.1 Kernel. Well after I flashed that kernel the Google app kept crashing on me so I decided to start from scratch. The only problem was I couldn't find the XAR firmware for my 128GB S3. I tried the UK firmware listed above and that almost works except that it limits my storage to 32GB instead of 128GB. Has anyone out there found any XAR firmware that can be downloaded? Any idea how to fix the storage issue?
Edit: After poking around I found the correct firmware at the link below.

Hi all
How should I flash the OTA flash files downloaded from Samfirmware?? Should I use ADB?? If yes, can anyone tell me the commands??
I normally flash phones with SPT/RIFF box, so I am a bit rusty in ADB
Kind regards
I'd say use Odin. But just to be sure, Check the stickies in the general forum. Use the search if not sure.

Hi!
Just use odin to flash the firmware.. i'm pretty sure most of the fw would just be on PDA in odin.

If you are talking about OTA and not the full firmware..it has to be flashed in stock recovery...first make sure you have the correct firmware version on your phone..the firmware version required will be given alongside the OTA on samfirmware..now move the OTA to your sdcard..reboot into stock recovery..use vol up+power+home buttons..then choose install update from there..
I need to do this. I'll do a Titanium Backup before, but should I expect all my content, apps, preferences and all that to be intact after the procedure (presuming everything goes the way it should)?
Edit: Also, why can't I see an option for United States in the drop-down menu when narrowing down my device? Should I use some other country?

And do you know what this ota files are used for? I've an S5830 from Vodafone(Spain) and I want to get it back to the original firm (you know, operator apps and some more innecesary ****), but I'm unable to find one on the internet.
Looking at www.samfirmware.com, the only thing I've seen about my device and Vodafone is the OTA file i'm talking about, but I'm not pretty sure if flashing it will let my phone in factory defaults.
I need to flash a Vodafone rom because I wanna send it to the technical support.

Find a Vodafone Spain Rom, it should be over 200mb, then download Odin for your galaxy ace, it should be in the ace forum. Then flash it. Check the link below.

Helo everybody,
Im stuck a bit with update. I have downloaded the 5.0.2 android for my phone from sammobile but unfortunately odin always fail with the firmwares.
The only thing what i can do is installing back my old firmware, Otherwise not even kies could recognise my phone.
Is there a reason why its now allowing me to update it?
My current android is G850FXXU2BNK3_G850FOJV2BNK5_TUN
And i have tried G850FXXU2COI3_G850FNEE2COI1_NEE (This is for nordic countried...5.0.2)
and also tried G850FXXU2COE4_G850FH3G2COE1_H3G(This is for GB and H3G service provider)
Unfortunately both failed at the end.
I have tried the usual troubleshooting which was described here, but i think i just cannot find the proper 5.0.2 android for my phone.
Is it important which country i choose?
I bought the phone on ebay a year ago, made in Vietname, and the csc is TUN.
Please let me know if you need any more information.
Thank you.
Same with French xef?

Thanks for uploading these Joe. Hope the donation helps.
Am I understanding you went to the U FW an are now back on the A FW on your 930A?
Any issues I need to look out for now that I installed U on my 930A?
I just tried to install this firmware using Odin in root thread. But I get "Model dismatch fail" error. Any idea why?
I have AT&T SM-G930A with official PF2 firmware.
For some reason, OTA update and Smart Switch shows PF2 is up to date firmware.
For some reason, odin gets stuck on a files step?
Sorry been busy at work...
Yes, I was on T firmware, then U, then back on A now.
I never had any issue using the modded Odin. Rename the files to remove .md5 so it ends in .tar

So, I did this. Pretty impressed with the overall device feel now, SE9 is nice . No hang ups other thank it took a long friggin' time, also remember this will WIPE all the data, so make sure to do a backup prior to. The initial/first phone setup is very iPhone-ish, imo.

Be warned; this update is ONLY for SM-G930A firmware - it has a second-stage updater that blocks all other versions (including SM-G930T, which I myself tried). In other words, it is a carrier-specific update, folks.

If it weren't for this being a daily driver, I'd consider it. However, because it is, that's not an option. So I'll have to wait for either a neutral version or one that will work with the SM-G930T.

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.

Do note that it will definitely wipe data.
U1 firmware (G965U1UEU3ARG7) https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903999031
Also use this Odin to flash (Odin3_v3.13.1_3B_Patche) https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528067951

So it is out there?
When did this update become available for the G965U1?
I haven't even gotten a notification that it's available (nor does it show up when I check for software updates)..

Ok.. Am flashing it now, will post results once I get the phone back up and running
Got it all flashed and back up and running... Just took a bit to restore everything and all my settings. Haven't seen anything amiss as of yet, sure I won't find out if there are any quirks until I let things settle for a day or two.
** Update 9/10 - So far so good, working like a charm. Even the wifi issue I had where it kept saying my internet might not be available (even though it was, and turning wifi off and back on would make it work) seems to be gone. Thanks for the link kevindevonwilliams

Sorry for my noob question, but it is just flash the full firmware or do I have to flash any combination file before do that?
I tried to flash G965UOYN3ARG7 TMB to my Sprint S9+ (firmware G965USQU3ARG7), but it didn´t switch the carrier.
Thanks in advanced.

My device is unlocked, but I have the same problem of lease Sprint. I did search in the web and I found this thread, I did download the files you posted, but I have already the firmware before mentioned and flash it using Patched Odin, but it didn´t work. Still having the same warning from Sprint.

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
