Hello.
I root my g930a, i install eng boot and root... .
can i install BL_G930_CRF1 again after root? i think eng boot is slow ...
Interested in this, however I'm currently on an AT&T S7 flat G930A running latest security patched CRG5 (non-rooted). Recommendations on this (possible/not-possible)? I see in the OP instructions that it needs to be on CRF1. Do I need to go back and odin flash a stock CRF1? Any chance of an updated version with CRG5? Thanks for these efforts...I know you all do this in your limited free time!
I am in the same boat. Thing has slowed down so much it is time to rom it or get an iPhone. It looks like the CRF1 files are posted as a preinstall step.
Steps worked perfect for me... My phone runs great again. No lag so far.

Hey, so I have successfully installed this rom and it works amazingly. I just have one question: Can someone explain to me what the rom slots are in the safestrap recovery? I'm honestly hoping that it's somewhat like a dualboot feature.
Yes. There is a root guide here. I recommend following the steps to upgrade to Oreo and install this rom.
Silly question, but will custom ROMs like this work with the AT&T S7? I ask because I thought AT&T locked the phones down a couple years ago so that custom ROMs could not be installed. Thanks!
Yes, this is not entirely a true "custom ROM" this is modified stock ROM. US variant Samsung phones have a locked bootloader so you can't have a true "custom recovery" how safestrap is different as it doesn't actually replace the android recovery. Any attemp to install official twrp or "ASOP" custom ROM , or a custom kernel will soft brick your phone(fixable but a hassle)
That being said, this ROM is a "work arround" you can achieve very many mods with it and since it in itself isn't rooted you can will still pass safetynet and if you don't modify the binary aka install something useless like busybox, you can still even use Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass.
In my humble opinion, i prefer this to root and even custom ROMs since all the stock samsung features work and you can still have really sick mods. I think most casual android users just want to be able to have a few mods like dual speaker and what not but don't want to sacrifice unlocking bootloader to do it. Better than having a rooted phone because that means eng kernel which slows the phone and lose safetynet and Samsung's knox features altogether
Follow his link to root guide. I used the Alternative Root Zip because this is the only I that works with Titanium Backup Pro. The issue was if you wiped dalvik cache it would destroy the rom. This method works well and I am loving it!Yes. There is a root guide here. I recommend following the steps to upgrade to Oreo and install this rom.
I have been using this CRF1 Rom for about 2 months now. I am very happy with it, no lag, crashes.
I recently discovered Engineering codes entered via the dialer do not work, example *#06# should display IMEI.
Does anyone know why? Is it disabled in the Rom? Can it be enabled via the BuildProp Editor or CSC features?
I am using the TMO version, rooted. It did not work before rooting either.
Where to look would be a great help.
Many Thanks!

I'm trying to get rid of FRP but I'm not sure what you mean by samfail. Couldn't find anything in the forum about it.
