i eard that only solution is to downgrade from nougat to marshmallow

than buy a 10 dol code to unlock the phone

is this right?

does marshmallow brings app lock device? because your device can´t have this if you want to unlock phone

I really don't get why people are trying to get it unlocked by buying "unlock code". T-Mobile have relatively friendly customer service, and I got mine unlocked even before the JUMP contract is completely paid off. If you got the phone legally and you don't owe t-mobile any money, they'll unlock it for you.

are you joking?

people that are asking help for unlocked of course that can´t use the app unlocker...

Hi community,
A question for many of us in regards to 'unlocking' or "how to unlock" from our carriers, I have done a very simple and silly way to unlock my phone from T-Mobile.

I am currently under SM-G935U Firmware (4API3), coming from SM-G935T's 4APIA Firmware.

Follow these simple steps in order to unlock from your carrier.

***NOTE: THIS METHOD ONLY WORKS IN STOCK FIRMWARES. YOUR DEVICE WILL BREAK IF YOU TRY TO INSTALL UNDER A CUSTOM ROM***

1.- If you have previously installed a custom ROM (Echoe, Tekv2), say bye bye for now. Using Odin latest version (3.12.3), flash Stock Firmware '4APIA'. After set up enable developer options and USB Debugging.
2.- Download SM-G935U's official firmware from SamMobile or Samsung-Firmwares (Make sure you download the TMO region firmware)
3.- Create a new folder on your desktop, copy and paste BL & AP files from the SM-G935U firmware you just downloaded. From the SM-G935T stock firmware you downloaded, copy and paste CP & CSC_HOME files.
*Basically you will have BL/AP from G935U and CP/CSC_HOME from G935T*

4.- Flash these files through ODIN, but WARNING: After flashing your phone will reboot. Go into recovery mode and wipe cache/data + wipe data.

5,- You will get to see a dm-verityverification failed, no mount blah blah blah. Just ignore it. After deleting cache and data reboot again into download mode...BUT THIS TIME ONLY FLASH CP file from G935T while the CSC_HOME you will flash now will be the official G935U file.

6.- After reboot, done.

I was able to install Google Voice :D
Can this be rooted after it is installed?

Your phone is SIM locked

Hi all. As far as I can see, the U firmware unlocked the phone. I inserted a SIMPLE MOBILE CARD into my G935T running G935U firmware, the phone boot into like recovery mod but the screen go BLUE and it configures SIM UNLOCKED SYSTEM, then it reboot and walla the phone have service on SIMPLE MOBILE NETWORK. I was very SURPRISED it works because the phone is locked to T-Mobile and only the DEVICE APP to unlock it. So at this point I'm only using the G935U firmware on my G935T, no more T-Mobile firmware bull crap. Next I'll get an AT&T SIM card and try that for 30 days.
Simple Mobile is a T-Mobile company, and their SIM will work on any T-Mobile phone. Being able to use a Simple Mobile SIM on your T-Mobile phone doesn't mean your phone is SIM unlocked. I bet you if you try any other SIM card, your phone will not register as it is still SIM locked.

Just to clear this issue for everyone, THIS DOESN'T UNLOCK your phone from your carrier "t-mobile". Doing this will just flash the firmware for SM-G935U on your SM-G935T, and even after doing it, and in About, is states model number as G935U, in reality, it is still G-935T, and this method has nothing to do with unlocking your phone.

For the TMO and other SM-G935 firmware, check out THEANDROIDSOUL.COM . They have about 90% of all firmware.

I'm not a big fan of stock roms, custom is the way but this TMO G935U FIRMWARE IS THE ****TTT !!!.
The last time I used a stock Rom was from HTC EVO 4G, after that was the Sprint S2 and I never USED ANY PHONES WITHOUT A CUSTOM ROM TILL NOW.
This TMO G935U FIRMWARE, I did a ANTUTU BENCHMARK LAST NIGHT after flashing the firmware. Mennn! The score was higher than the note 7 N9300 by 4000 points, I couldn't believe it. I did a second test samething. The battery performance is excellent.
Please share link of the rom and process. And will it work on G835T?

You need to factory reset it.

Choose the regular CSC instead of HOME CSC next time, and it will do the reset for you

try to wipe it from recovery mode (wipe data, then wipe cache). Also check if it shows any efs errors at the bottom of the screen
