Right now you can flash official T-mobile nougat rom for Verizon galaxy s7 (G930V). It's seem everything work fine. Here's how to do that:
- Download official T-mobile nougat rom from updato.com (search for T-mobile nougat rom by enter "G930T" in search field - sorry I cannot post link because of XDA's policies)
- Flash rom to galaxy s7 G930V with odin (like any other 6.0 roms)
:D Done! Now we have final Nougat on Verizon Galaxy S7 G930V

I'm actually pretty excited about doing it this way... Are there any downfalls to flashing the T-Mobile ROM? LTE still working data working no dropped calls? Considering flashing over to this when I get off of work anyway just to try it out would like to know if anyone can confirm everything will still work

If you flash the TMOBILE rom your phone will not work with Verizon and you most likely will not be able to flash back to Verizon until there is a Verizon nougat factory image. With the S7 you cannot flash back to an older bootloader and I would think the TMOBILE nougat rom has a newer bootloader.

I flashed t-mobile rom on my S7 G930V and seemed everything works fine. But I'm not in US to try some Verizon features. I then flashed back to G930U rom on my S7.

I was reading the s7 edge forum. They have a 5th file called boot recovery image file tar. Do we not need that one also. Just asking before I flash this

I think it might be helpful if I address a few things. After using this image for about a day, I decided to go back to the U firmware
- Cellular does not work (duh). Renders the "phone" aspect useless.
- The T-Mobile logo is sickening
- Reverting back to stock is very simple. Just flash the V or U firmware and you're good to go. Same process as flashing the T firmware.

Agreed. I flashed this last night, and I must say the official nougat really looks and feels a lot smoother and prettier than the beta. LOL but I agree to a certain point about the mobile cellular network not working only mine was working, I just had terrible cell signal... And only connected to 3G. No LTE. Also wasn't showing my network, network name was 12345678 lol moral of the story I reverted back lol.

On a side note yes you can flash back to the Verizon firmware. I flash back to the API3 and then back to the nougat beta from there. Smart switched everything back and it's like I never left. Lol

I just installed the t mobile firmware last night and everything worked fine since then, cellular signal strong, 4G data strong as usual, everythibg works smoothly than U firmware also debloat the t.mobile stuff and almost get a stock firmware. Give a try the T firnware.

Now that I think about it I didn't flash the CSC file because I read somewhere that it would not work with a Verizon (MNVO) sim

I wonder when/if the official update comes out, will it work with Gear VR? I understand the "betas" do not work with the Samsung Gear VR under Nougat. Just curious.

Did you have Wifi Calling after installing new firmware? I got a S7 (SM-G390V) on verizon and switched carriers to tmobile, however i can't send/receive images in text. "wifi calling" has been disabled by evil verizon (doesn't appear)..... i want to flash the firmware to enable it to "hopefully" solve my issue. Just wondering if that will appear afterwards....

If i was one of you on the flat screen version i would flash the CSC file and the boot recovery image file from the S7 Edge setup and follow directions there. What can it hurt? If it doesn't work you just oden back to whatever you want. You cant use it as it is anyways as you have no real Verizon data with out those files. It's soo much better than the beta! Only thing i haven't got is WiFi calling and visual voice mail.
