Afternoon all.
What would be involved if trying to go from firmware version t867 to t865?
I am aware these are different as far as model numbers. However the hardware spec's are the same on both devices.
I have successfully changed from sm-t867v to sm-t867u.
Any tips or pointing in the right direction would be awesome. Thank you.

Hi guys, need a working link for 2.3.5 gingerbread uk stock rom I9100BUKJ3_I9100VODKI2_VOD.zip
or 2.3.5 on o2 or unbranded uk stock 2.3.5
I need to repair my imei/efs folder with a Z3X box, and the firmware needs to be on 2.3.5, and no i have no backup of the efs folder.
tried sammobile and android firmwares but no luck
thanks.
If Samfirmware, AndroidFirmwares.net or Samsung-Updates.com don't have what you want, you're SOOL.
You won't find it anywhere else, the chances of someone reading this who coincidentally has a copy handy these days is zero given how few people read/post here - there's a fair chance you'll be sitting there in a month & probably won't even get another reply to this thread (and the reason for that is as above; those 3 places are the only places you're going to source a 3 yr old firmware for a 3yr old phone).
Besides, why do you think need that particular firmware ? I'm not seeing why you can't use any other firmware for your country/carrier. If I were in your situation, I'd be investigating that one, otherwise you probably won't be fixing it.
Its whats recommended on gsmforum in the z3x repair guide forum.
Thanks.

I'd be checking the date of whatever you're reading. Are you sure it's not dated around the time this phone was released ? If it is, that would explain why that firmware is recommended (may well have been the only firmware available at the time).
Essentially, firmware is firmware, the differences between them are minimal - only differences are the modems, and carrier-specific 'crapware'. The kernels are sometimes a little different depending on date of release (maybe different Linux kernel version), but the main differences happen when you're talking about roms with different Android versions (GB-ICS-JB). Even then, I'm not seeing why you need a specific firmware for an EFS repair/IMEI re-write.
Up to you what you do, but as I said, expect to still be looking for this firmware weeks from now if you insist you need that & only that one.
Used 123unlock to repair imei,
tried with 4.1.2 firmware, didn't work managed to find an o2 2.3.5 gingerbread firmware and it worked first time imei now repaired.
Check out 123unlock if you get stuck with no imei and no efs backup, it worked for me, but it cost me €21 to use their online repair server.

The reason it says your on the latest firmware is because you are rooted. At&t firmware is hard to come by as they lock the bootloader and device down. If you are not bothered about root flash stock firmware and you can uodate OTA.
I have the same problem except that my phone is not rooted, im on stock AT&T Android 5, but it still says i have the latest firmware.
Someone told me that it has to be connected to AT&T cell towers to find the update but even that didn't work for me.

I will give it a shot but first i need to find the stock firmware because its hard to find for my device specifications, and i will let you know if it worked for me
Edit: flashing the stock firmware locks phone to only at&t network since i use different network i will not try to update it
Hi All
I don't quite understand how all the different baseband versions work, but I am looking to flash a stock, non-rooted version of Oreo to my AT&T S7.
I've had a look through the forums on the AT&T S7 - and nothing is intuitive. Is there a how to guide I could read? Or could someone point me in the right direction to a build?
Baseband version: G930AUCU4BQA6
Android version: 7.0
Build number: NRD90M.G930AUCU4BQA6
Appreciate the help,
Thanks!
I don't have the specific answer without the same research you'd have to do, but I do know that usually if the base stock OS is available from the carrier for the version you want then it should be fully compatible since it was made for your device.
However, if you mean flashing from another carrier, that is asking for trouble (could brick your device).
Hello, I came across "combination firmware" for my S21 - will this work to downgrade my firmware version? I'm looking to change the CSC which I haven't been able to do on the latest firmware.
All those various CSC change dialer codes don't seem to work on the latest firmware.
Dialer codes stopped working since February, 2021. CSC changing became pain in the neck, if you're too afraid to lose KNOX, you'll have a rough time following this guy.
Thanks! I tried that, but it didn't work.
Hopefully the SamKEY folks will get this figured out.
Hi,
I bought a G850EMW from China to work in the UK. It has Android 10 and works perfectly. However I would like to update to Android 12. I have seen guides for this involving downloading a Rom from LGRom.com.
My current phone is running "V20a-LAO-COM". LAO seems to be hard to find information about, and there are no LAO roms on the site. I saw on one forum a reference to "Latin Amercian Region".
My question is can I go ahead and flash my phone with a Rom from say Germany (DEU) or will this cause a problem (is this a "cross-flash") as I'm supposed to find a compatible "LAO" region firmware? I don't want to brick my phone, but I would like the latest security updates, battery improvements, etc.
Thank you.
