Maybe a silly question but if I flash this on my T-Mobile SM-G955U will I be able to unlock and flash root? Will it work with my specific carrier here in the US?
All th US phones have the same model name so I was just curious as to how we will be moving forward with development!
Sorry if I asked a silly question, haven't been on Samsung for a while....comming from LG.$

You can´t flash this!

You have the Snapdroagon 835 processor.

This Firmware is ONLY for the Exynos 8895 Processor.

Even if you tried flashing the wron software AND locked bootloader of your SM-G955 U would make it impossible and could - in the worst case - lead to a bricked phone.

Could you do a Post with CSC collection ?
particulary Home_CSC repository ? it's very usefull ...

here in my post CSC which will erase and give you CSC=PHN,
and the HomeCSC, which will not erase your data and give you CSC=PHN.

Thanks ^^

I don't understand anything from your post; what do you mean/want?

When you use CSC or HOME_CSC and you've one of the CSC's mentioned in OXM, your CSC will stay original!

When you flash Home CSC it doesn't erase your data, for example, if you flash Home CSC PHE on a S7, it allows you to use Spay in spain. But if you flash standard CSC, it erase all data on your phone.

Doing a thread for all Home_CSC avaible could be very useful.

Yes but you said this CSC will give PHN ? so if we flash this HOME_CSC_OXM it will give PHN ?
Maybe in another HOME_CSC_OXM from another firmware it will give XEU ... do you understand the idea ? ^^

isn´t it so that if the csc that you have atm is in the Multi-CSC Package and you flash the HOME_CSC that you stay on YOUR CSC.

For example, you have the DBT CSC and you flash the firmware from here with the OXM Multi-CSC then you should stay on the DBT CSC, right?

Where did I say: this CSC gives PHN? Nowhere!

The firmware-package is for ALL CSC's in OXM the same: there are NO separate firmwares anymore for i.e. PHE, PHN etc...

If your phone has the PRODUCT-code PHE (UNbranded Spain) and you flash the package I posted here, your CSC will stay PHE and will NOT change to PHN
