SM-G930T with G930TUVS9CSC1 Firmware, are there custom roms? Have any rom sugestions?

[ryan.j.mckenzie]

So I just got T-Mobile Galaxy S7 from ebay. Unfortunately the owner kept it up to date or updated it before sending it out. I'm coming across conflicting information on custom roms. I've found instructions on rooting, and have had success. Before i go in to detail on what ive learned so far, is it even possible to flash custom roms with the v9 bootloader? Can I use roms intended for the exynos variants of the SM-G930? Like lineage-herolte. Am I stuck with the T-Mobile rom?

I'm in the same boat; bought it from eBay with the most recent firmware and I'm looking for a root/flash method.

here is a root method that worked for me.

Im waiting on a SM-G930U from verizon to come in the mail before I start blindly flashing to the SM-G930T. I don't want to brick my only phone. I'll updated once ive tried.

Thanks! Have you noticed any issues after rooting? I've heard heat is one of them.

I didnt leave it rooted. I didn't see the point without a rom to put on it, so I reflashed stock T-Moble G930TUVS9CSC1 with odin.

Any update with flashing that custom ROM?

Flashing boot files

Hi just letting you know Be careful I flashed ENG-boot files going around and bricked a my 1st g930vl because it had a U9 boot loader.
I see one or two actuall post but no twrp, so once it gets wiped than it's time to get a new phone.
