audio issues I'm having an odd issue. I've gotten the ROM installed perfectly and it works great, the only issue i am currently encountering is with audio. the speakers work great, they are loud and DSP manager even works correctly, however when i plug in headphones, no matter the size, even if...

as the Oreo OTA files i linked in the OP include a completely different bootloader from previous updates, it will unfortunately never be possible to go back to an older version once upgraded to Android Oreo on this phone. So if you aren't sure if you'll like Oreo, i recommend you hold off on...

UPDATE Sorry i have not been online to answer questions for a while. I unfortunately ended up bricking my S7 Active while experimenting, so don't attempt to downgrade once you upgrade to oreo, it could hard brick your phone permanently. IF anyone has any questions that need answering, please...

Just try downloading it again

Yeah, I can make it last a day, I got mine used, so my battery has 85% of its original health, I would think one with a newer battery in it would last longer, especially since this one lasts the whole day.... if you find one cheap, I recommend, but only the 6s/6s plus, not the 6/6 plus

Bro, I’m sorry, I can’t help, I accidentally bricked my s7 active last month, and it was hard bricked, I accidentally flashed the wrong boot loader, so I had to return it and I know how people feel about this, but there was a great deal on an iPhone 6s :/ ???????????????

Nah, use stock to flash CRC7 AS IS, NOT ANYTHING NEWER... My phone is now pernaneantly bricked due to me flashing an older bootloader from a new one

Yes, if it were not for berkantz and glenrocks, my guide would not exist :)

decryption key PLEASE

please reup, link dead, like my phone

Ok, after lots of digging through the ota zip, i believe i may have one step towards a solution. But i need you to check it, as if it does work, it will update my phone to bootloader 3, which i would rather not do, since you already have bootloader 3, and it can't worsen the situation now that i...

i realize now that the issue with my idea is... root... root is not achieved on oreo yet... and the firmware.mobi website upload to dropbox doesn't work, just refreshes after clicking start upload. So i'm stuck. But, if somebody could provide an image i could flash to root oreo on the s7 active...

then just don't flash the BL, flash everything else, let me know if it works

i have an idea.... i'll try taking a backup of my working oreo installation and converting it into a flashable tar file for odin... can you tell me what error the phone shows when you try to flash the nougat? does it have a sw rev check fail or secure check fail?

i understand the photo says galaxy s7 under phone name. this is not officially released yet, so for some odd reason, the default name is galaxy s7 rather than galaxy s7 active.

heres the wallpapers. think i ran out of attachments up there:

The new Android Oreo OTA firmware looks more like the galaxy S8 theme, without any modding needed, apart from installing the zip file! the zip file is found on the below website [Must be on baseband ending in BRB5, check out my other post for instructions how to get to that version...]...

actually, has anyone confirmed if unlocking the aboot allows bootloader downgrades on the s7 active? i also found this on the download site: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/BGy7/gKs4xzhRE/root/unlockg891aboot.tar Try flashing this in the AP slot in odin to unlock the aboot partition, then flash...

Oh, i see. You're on bootloader version 3. In that case, there is most likely nothing you can do to fix the phone. Just wait patiently for an odin flashable version of oreo for the s7 active, which should have bootloader 3 out of the box, and that should work. At this point, it is simply a...

This Guide is one i wrote in a reply on another forum, I thought more people would see it if i posted it here as well. As usual, if you brick your phone while following this guide, it is your problem, and i take no repsonsibility for any bricked S7 Actives due to this guide. Its not likely, but...

It should work, make sure you have the usb drivers installed, the LATEST VERSION of odin (older versions may get stuck), and make sure your phone is in download mode (hold down power + volume down + home until a blue screen appears. click volume up). Then, open odin, connect your phone, and add...

There is no s7 active oreo rom in ODIN flashable format available yet, but you can update by flashing nougat, and flashing two ota flashable zip files in stock recovery. If you go to this website, and click the blue download button, you can extract the downloaded file with 7zip, or winrar, and...

did you use the UPPERCUT tool to open LGUP, rather than using the regular lgup shortcut? That's the only way to make the PARTITION DL option appear. Make sure you also have installed the lgup dll .msi setup program before running uppercut. let me know how it goes

you can already use stock recovery to flash it... Just make sure you flash the previous OTA updates until BRB5 are the last 4 characters of your baseband in settings -> about -> software info I'm running the first oreo listed on that link on my S7 Active, not sure if the others will work, but...

i have an n920x, works great on n920c firmware, but i couldn't help but notice that the model number (next to the camera, to the right) on the motherboard of the n920x, is in fact n920i I wonder if n920i firmware would work if flashed, maybe even get OTA on it. I shall experiment

I have the 5.1.1 firmware for the live demo unit Note 5 N920X downloaded, but i installed n920c firmware on my phone when i got it because of demo mode, so it won't let me downgrade. An android 6.0, or even better, 7.0 firmware for the N920X would be awesome, just so i can get OTA again

I've been searching for HOURS trying to find a firmware for my SM-N920x note 5 live demo unit, and i finally just have! most sites require a membership to download, but this one did not require anything, just create an account on the site, login and download, no payment! i was surprised LOL...
