[ROM] T-Mobile Note Edge SM-915T NJL Rooted Stock Deodexed Knox-disabled + AT&T Info
Terms, Conditions, and Background
Please consider the following carefully before even thinking about flashing this ROM:
--I have no idea what I'm doing
--I have never done any dev work before this
--I only did this because no one else has done it
--Installing/flashing this ROM may brick or otherwise destroy/render your device useless
--By downloading, you hold me completely harmless and it's all on you!
ROM building process:
--I rooted the ROM and installed TWRP
--Deodexed the ROM (pulled the files, deodexed, created a .zip of the deodexed files, flashed the files back)
--Nandroid the ROM
--Extracted boot/kernel and system partition
--Renamed all the Knox stuff to .bak
--Built the flashable zip
--Tested flash on TWRP and CWM.
(a lot of search, trial and error on figuring out some of the steps)
This ROM DOES NOT wipe the data partition. So your setup will remain
This ROM already has the SD card write fix flashed to it
I made no other modifications
Credit to jovy23 -- I used his META-INF from Note 4.
If you choose to proceed and use the ROM after warnings above....
1) Do a full nandroid first. In fact, do two! Backup using TWRP or CWM.
2) Download the ROM and compare MD5 just to be sure
3) Flash using TWRP or CWM
4) Wipe cache and dalvik
5) Reboot and enjoy
6) If you get a bootloop, I wouldn't know why. Restore from backup.
7) If you're on ATT using the T-Mo device (like I am), once this ROM proves to work for others, I will post the AT&T-specific settings here.
Download
This ROM is only for T-Mobile Note Edge 915T: LINK
MD5 Here: LINK
Afterthoughts
--Please hit/say "Thanks" if you deem appropriate
--Please be nice. I don't know what I'm doing. I'm only sharing in case someone else want the same I do.
--If you can contribute and help improve this, I'm all ears.
--Please do not mirror, repost, or otherwise share without my permission.
--In case you're wondering, I wanted deodexed because it gives way to theming/customization. I also thought I read that Xposed requires deodexed in some cases.
--Did I miss anything?
Well, here goes nothing.... Enjoy.....
Edit 1:
Forgot to add that this ROM comes with the international Note Edge boot graphics

Don't thank me too much yet--please let me know if it works for you [keeping fingers crossed].
working fine
I flashed it but I had to do a dirty flash because for some reason when look for my SD card in twrp it doesn't show up for some reason but it did flash with no problems and it's running smooth

Thanks for letting me know. That is great news. Now we have something to work with....
Dirty flash should be fine since it's the same as the stock. Just be sure to clear the cache and dalvik.
Bout to root/recovery and give this a whirl. I cant stand how terrible my battery life is anymore. is this debloated? like the ATT stuff?
Edit: Wait, theres no support for the AT&T Variant in terms of root/recovery?
Great Job and Congrats!!! @snovvman Don't sell yourself short. Your contributions are very important and appreciated. I'm sure this Rom is going to inspire more conversations, ideas and development. Perhaps we'll even get a dedicated US forum soon. Its nice to see 915T getting some attention. Can't wait to give it go......

Thanks Snowman for this rom! You've got to realize your the first one to drop a rom for the T-mobile variant of the note edge. You made history! Will be testing out soon. I'll let you know the details.

This is a T-Mobile stock ROM, so it has full bloat of T-Mobile. Many [of us] use T-Mobile's hardware with an AT&T SIM (and account) because of exactly what you discovered. AT&T has decided to lock the bootloader, which makes root more difficult and generally no direct/easy recovery support.
On the subject of bloat, it is easy enough for me to make a de-bloated version. We'll see how things go with the stock, and if there is enough demand, I'll produce a debloated version.
*** For me, I usually start with a full-bloat ROM and freeze/disable the apps I do not want at all, use Greenify to suspend those I use occasionally, and use Autostart to manage the rest. This way, I have full control over what runs and what doesn't. This way, if I later decide I want a bundled app, I simply re-enable it rather than having to look for the APK.

Cheers. Thanks for the kind words. I hope it works well for you. I did it out of desperation!!
BTW, I am also working on a Sprint version, since I also have a Sprint Note Edge.
I have been trying to get carrier-specific Edge Forums for some time:

Ok so here is what I've done so far testing this rom. I decided I didn't want to do a dirty flash with the rom so I did a nandroid backup in twrp. Got that done and deleted data, cache, and dalvik-cache. I then did a factory reset right there one menu back. It booted up fine and was seeming to run fine. Once I got past the the setup wizard I then went to the play store to download my apps. Therein was my problem. It wouldn't download anything. It would say downloading and download the app a certain amount and just stop. So I canceled it and moved on to another app. Downloaded and just stayed on installing. Never completed. I just couldnt get my apps to download.. Not the op's fault. It was said to firty flash, but I'm letting those know who are wondering outside the box. Maybe someone else is able to fix that issue. I then went back to twrp and restored my nandroid backup. Only problem I have now is I guess the fingerprint memory for my finger got erased. Kept saying no match. Backup password let me in. Was that a relief. Now when I went into the settings to change the backup password and fingerprint it says wrong password and fingerprint doesn't match. Real weird. So if your going to try this stuff disable the fingerprint reading on lockscreen and other things. That might help to relieve some fustration. Now I've dirty flashed the rom on top of my other and there doesn't seem to be any problems besides the finger print scanner. I'm sure a factory reset or another rom with work fine with it. Hope this helps someone!
Thanks for taking the time to do this. I was going to make a debloated ROM I just have not had the time.
Your a boss for doing this
Anyone having trouble with appstore not installing apps or things hanging go into settings then storage then click cached data and clear it

I have no idea, how this thread got 1 star.
I'm downloading the latest ROM that dropped-NK3. I'll see if I can work up a similar setup as the NJL deodexed....
Also if it wouldn't be to much trouble maybe you could also make a debloated rom

Debloating is pretty easy to do. To me, though, is defining what is considered bloat. I can use some guidance. If you (and others) can provide a list of apps that you would like to see excluded, I think I can get it done.
Haha I don't know what other people's definition is but mine is taking everything out except what is needed to run the rom but that's probably to much so I'm guessing people mean no t-mobile apps or samsung apps but we would need some samsung apps for the edge apps so idk
Sent from my SM-N915T using XDA Free mobile app
Guys debloat yourself its very easy...everyone uses their phone differently. Some people use Samsung apps some dont. Some use all Google apps some dont.. Ill tell you how i do it hopefully it will help..
1.Create a folder on the root of your ExtSd called "Debloat"
2. Using Root Explorer navigate to System/app, System/privapp and Data/app, remove all apks you dont use and place them in the Debloat folder. Dont remove anything beginning with com. or Sec...if you dont know what it is Google it, thats what i used to do, if your still unsure freeze it forst in tibu. Now you have them all incase you need them again.
3.Reboot and cross your fingers.
You can also freeze whatever you want to remove in Tibu, reboot and see how it goes for a while. If no ill effects boom start at #1 and remove them.
I personally dont use any of the Sammy stuff so i remove it all, all the cloud apks, push, store, etc...if you dont print from your phone remove every print apk, and so on.
Its simple guys give it a shot☺

Nice. Props to ya for setting it up for cricket users. Most of the people coming in this thread are looking for just another rom (for sprint). But again, I'm sure loads of people using Cricket would appreciate your work.
Been trying to get my Mms working for a while and will try out later today. Thank you. Just need to work on theme I like now.Thanks again
Great job!!! I am downloading right now!!! I will let you know if there's any bugs ... Thanks!!!!!

Ok it sounds like you where previously using deathsleds Rom and did not do a wipe data before flashing my Rom hence why you had the mnt folder that is only used by the incredible roms so try wiping the data and cache and everything should be fine. Let me know if that fixes your problem

Cricket is a carrier that you can flash phones and the network accepts the esn, also we have a very nice full data package for $55 and we got 4g working on cricket! Me and ztahoez are Cricket Mafia we flash phones to work on cricket. Our primary objective is to get Talk Text MMS Web Apps and GPS fully functional on cricket with non-cricket phones. Cricket has no contracts and unlimited everything with a nice html data plan for 61.86 a month in my area. So cricket rocks for a cheap and affordable solution to your high end phones.

I beg to differ, IMO this was posted here to pay respects to avalaunchmods, and with the recent Jiminy Cricket Rom this was a nice follow up. Jiminy Cricket works great but I experience better battery life and a lil speedier phone with this rom. I think you guys would be better off trying to cook up some custom roms for Cricket, Metropcs, Page Plus these roms and solutions would be worth $$$$ so keep that in mind. And on hofo it would just get taken down or possibly start a fight, my dude might have posted there about this though anyway. How's it working on the wifey's phone?
Im not going to use this rom but i just wanted to post for support towards your cause,good job man.im sure ppl are thankful just a little to busy to take 30secs to says thanks.
I know i'm not the only one having this problem, its been posted about before but no answers so id like to see if someone else who didn't get to see those can see this and come up with a solution..
I use an unlocked G2X with Cincinnati Bell, currently running Weapon. I have no problem at all on any rom though that is 2.3.3, any rom over that like 2.3.4, 2.3.4 etc data has NEVER worked, not i had it but lost it when i rebooted, never . i've never been able to run CM7 or MIUI because of this, and yes before someone suggests it my APN settings are correct i've checked them 1000 times they are the same as when on 2.3.3 roms, i've hard booted after to try to get data flowing a million times, i've followed installation instructions 100 percent and still have never had data working on those roms.
even on the new CM7 where the APN issue is fixed, data still does not work. Its obviously something in roms over 2.3.3 that is creating this problem. I BEG, BEG someone please help find an answer i would love you and most likely donate. Thanks.
58 views and no ideas? anyone, please?
You obviously haven't been checking the Development Section lately. There are many threads on this issue, and it has been fixed already. (Well, for the most part)

Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I've been following the development threads, because I too have been having data issues deeper than just missing APNs. It actually seems to be an issue with the entire radio side as a whole on any rom that's not based on the factory firmware. It's become much more stable, but still I can only get a GPS instant lock immediately after a hard reboot and can only receive multimedia messages immediately after a reboot as well. Another thing I've noticed, is I will get a "No internet connection" warning whenever I open the browser, despite having a data connection, and the page still loads.
Also, why do I have to set all my carrier information (my phone number, and voicemail number specifically) when the other factory firmware roms can pull this from the sim card?
I love all the features of CM7 and it's based roms, but the data stability has made it unusable for me.

You can't edit T-MO's one. You can copy and make a duplicate of that and then edit it, but that just beats the point.
And yeah I STILL have the same problem.
I'm not a t-mobile customer so I need to add my APN manually. And yes after a hard I can see my list of APNs and I'm allowed to add APNs but still no data. even after the latest stable version. And even after that with the Dragon Kernel with the supposed APN fix.
Really hope someone can shed some light here.

oh ok try going into recovery menu and wipe all data then boot up again maybe then you can see the apn
Since you are rooted go into adb and try the following. Download the attached zip file and extract the "apns-conf.xml" file and put it in the same directory you run adb from. Then execute the following adb commands.
# adb shell mv /system/etc/apns-conf.xml /system/etc/apns-conf.xml.bak
# adb push apns-conf.xml /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
# adb shell chmod 644 /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
Then go into apn settings and press menu and choose to restore to default. The TMO one will still show but now your Cincinnati Bell one should show also; and it will be a default apn like TMO now (they are on equal footing now). Make sure you press the radio button to make the Cincinnati Bell one green, it it wasn't already. Hopefully your data will work after this. Plus you will now have global apn settings automatically for virtually any sim you use from a GSM carrier worldwide.

Thanks for the help, I'm not where near an xda and phone "noob" but i have never used adb I wouldn't feel comfortable trying to do that if it risks bricking my phone. Unless you have any opinion on how doing it or if its not really complicated I don't think I will try that.

There is no risk of bricking your phone if you stick to the commands I gave you. Just highlight and copy them and you can paste them into the command prompt window by right clicking and selecting paste.
Download the attached zip with the adb.exe and two dlls need for it to run. All you are doing is backing up the apn configuration file, replacing it with a new one and setting permissions so the phone can use the new file. Then you reset the apns to default and the phone will set the apns from that file based on the sim in the phone.
Go into settings, applications and turn on usb debugging, if it is not on already. Then connect your phone to your computer and make sure the adb drivers load (you can find the driver pack by searching this site or installing them from the LG Updater app). To make sure the phone is connected in the command prompt window type "adb devices" and hit enter. The phone should be shown as connected. If not, the drivers are not installed.
Run the command prompt from the same directory where you unzip the three adb files and put the apns-conf.xml file in the same directory. That makes it easier for you to do this. It is actually quite simple and will take only a minute or so.
Flashable zip to replace apns-conf.xml file
Here is a flashable zip that can be installed with clockworkmod recovery. It does the same thing but does not back up your existing file. If you are running a stock rom this will prevent an ota from installing. If you are running a custom rom it doesn't matter as you cannot get ota updates anyway.
Just boot into CWM recovery and flash this zip file. Reboot and reset your apns to default.
Ok sweet, should i flash it while on my current rom that works or flash CM7 then flash it?
quick edit- it won't effect my phone being unlocked and lock it will it? after those questions i'm done asking and i will give it a try good sir thanks

I have some problem and something more.
GPRS data will not work, my default APN is mss.life.com.by, and I see arrows in my status bar, but internet not worked.
So, I changed it to internet.life.com.by(got it from operator instructions) and I anymore see arrows and internet still not work.
I have an idea with broadband, I think in my country other radio frequency.
But I can find other broadband for LG G2x
There is now a super thread over here with this root information and some more recoveries. I plan on expanding as more things are developed for the Rugby Pro.
I have added other hacks to this thread below the root download links. Enjoy.
The below guide outlines how to gain root on the Samsung Galaxy Rugby Pro (SGH-I547 ATT / Bell (Yes, Canada works!) / commanche). Please read through the full guide before attempting to root your device.
You will need ODIN v3.04 in order to gain root on the Rugby Pro (comanche), I will not post a link due to the nature of the package. Google has plenty of links for it.
BIG thanks to utkanos for all the help and making this a reality
Install instructions -- goldenlederhosen has provided some further information and detail about the below procedure here
Please read his post as well as the instructions before attempting this procedure
Install drivers from link below
Download necessary packages (clockwork recovery, root update) from the links below
Copy root update to your devices sdcard(s) -- Copy to both if external SD card is present
Charge phone to at least 80%
Power off the phone
Unplug from USB / Charger
Boot into download mode (Home + Volume Down + Power)
When asked if you want to continue, press Volume Up to enter download mode
Plugin phone and
Launch ODIN
Check the checkbox next to "PDA"
Click the PDA button
Select the comanche_cwr_6015_utkanos.tar.md5 file
Make sure only "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" are selected
Click start
Your phone will reboot one the flash is complete
You now have Clockwork Recovery, continue with the steps to get root
Power off your phone
Unplug from USB / Charger
Boot into Clockwork Recovery (Home + Volume Up + Power -- Release when Samsung logo appears)
Select "Install zip from sd card"
Select "Choose zip from sd card"

Would you be willing to pull an image of the stock boot partition (dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7) and PM me a link?
Also: check the OP, I've added some info on how to get tethering (after rooting) without the need for a dedicated ATT tethering plan.

I plan on using a stock boot image so I can put together an ODIN image that will flash the phone back to a stock state. If you root your phone or have a custom recovery / system / boot OTA updates will generally fail to apply. The best way to get an OTA update applied is to rollback to stock and install the OTA.

The boot partition should be the same across devices unless you make modifications.
I had to blindly update the boot partition on my device to get root, so I do not have an un-changed copy of it. In order to get an OTA update applied and to work with some Cyanogen / Clockwork Recovery stuff I will need a clean boot partition image.

I worked with a few people to get help putting together an ODIN image that allowed me to get custom recovery and the clockwork recovery update.zip. There is no general guide on the steps necessary.
If you are interested in diving into the custom rom / recovery stuff I will be doing some work with improving clockwork recovery for the Ruby Pro (commanche) and hopefully working on a Cyanogenmod 10 (JellyBean) port in the future. I am working on some items for the Rugby Smart (apache) at present, as soon as that stuff is taken care of I'll be focusing more on the Rugby Pro (commanche). If you are interested in taking a shot at updating the clockwork recovery for the commanche let me know and I can maybe point you in a few directions to get you going.

You probably know this, but here's where I downloaded Samsung's ROM (disguised again, & I'm pretty sure the new "c" version is for Canada) Just search for sgh-i547:

I am interested. Realize I have miniscule programming skills (http, xml & Google {now MIT} App Inventor).
Also, I did freeze TetheringProvision, but I rarely tether. Usually I only need to when it's raining & my home DSL slows too much. I'll let you know if I have any problems when I do finally try it.

I pulled that package as well. Unfortunately it is only the GPL components they are required to release, not the full ROM sources. It does contain the kernel sources which will be very helpful down the line.

There is a lot of testing work and guess/check for the ROM building stuff. I was thinking of setting up an IRC channel on FreeNode for discussing work on the device. Would you be interested / willing to move some of the interactive discussion over there once I have a channel setup?

Keep me in the loop. I tend to only tether for the purpose of my tablet when I'm not near a WiFi AP. I wanted to point it out just in case, better to have it working before it's necessary.
Let me know if you want a modded stock kernel . I'l be willing to help, even though I don't have the device on-hand.
IRC channel on FreeNode is setup: #rugby-pro-dev for those that are interested.

I think we should be covered at the moment. The first priority will likely be getting a recovery nailed down and 100% before working on a customized kernel. I'm hoping to get recovery nailed sooner than later so we can do things like nandroid and similar before starting in on CM10 or another ROM.
I am also working on the Rugby Smart (apache) CM9/3.0 Kernel/CM10 stuff as well so my time with the Pro is limited at the moment. Hopefully the Smart stuff moves quickly so I can loop back around to the Pro quickly.
>I pulled that package as well. Unfortunately it is only the GPL components they are >required to release, not the full ROM sources.
Ah, learn something new every day.

Sure, I already monitor #opennic on freenode, so I can just open another channel.

ETA, help, donation etc
I'm very interested in buying the Samsung Galaxy Rugby Pro for AT&T. However, there is no Cyanogenmod port for it yet. I really only want to have a phone if it can run a free ROM.
@kemonine96 et.al.:
When do you think a beta CM port will be ready?
I have not done any Android development and very little administration, but I am a seasoned Linux software engineer. Is there any way I can help with porting CM to this phone?
Finally, would a donation (kemonine96 has a paypal donations link) speed up the process? I can't afford to pay hundreds of dollars, but I could do something like 50....

You are not alone in that sentiment. I won't run a device I know won't receive a CyanogenMod port. The good news is as long as there is root, CyanogenMod can be made to work.

"Soon". Myself and a couple others are working on a set of changes for the Rugby Smart (predecessor to the Pro) and once they are further along I will be looking into starting the CyanogenMod port for the Pro.

Most definitely, there are a few things that would help out a CyanogenMod port significantly. If you contact me via IRC (see OP) or via PM we can discuss some of the options and take it from there. Please note I leave my IRC connection active 24x7 so I may not respond right away.

As much as I may appreciate a donation, please hold off as I cannot commit to working on CyanogenMod for the Pro in a paid capacity I am comfortable with. I am working 50-60 hour work weeks at my day job so my free time is severely limited. I have every intention on bringing CyanogenMod to the Pro but it is a free time problem more than anything else.

Google Wallet Installer for Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and US Cellular Samsung Galaxy S3.
Requires ROOT, an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER, and BUSYBOX!(A deodexed ROM is just recommended)
My newest project, RemoteFlash, was just released! Take a look and give it a try!
Wallet Installer Is Now Available For Free To All Supported Carrier Models On XDA! (Donations Appreciated)
My application, "Wallet Installer", will install Google Wallet on almost any US based Samsung Galaxy S3. It simply edits your build.prop and then places the correct modifications into your system. It downloads all the files from my personal server, which is pretty quick. Just select the appropriate Rom type: AOSP, JB Touchwiz, or ICS TouchWiz, and then your carrier: Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, or US Cellular. I also added a restore option for your build.prop, so you can restore it after you setup Google Wallet. Hopefully this helps you out and makes the process easier!
Wallet Installer has been updated on the server side. The credit goes to Paul Obrien for the new version! To install it, simply reset Google Wallet, delete it, and then rerun Wallet Installer! Make sure to also have BusyBox installed/updated!
Please donate if my work helps you : )
V3: No Recovery/More Stable
And as always: I take no responsibility for bricked devices, whether a soft brick or a full on brand new coffee coaster.
Dude. You are awesome. I was just in the official wallet thread and was hesitant on going through with it because it seemed daunting having to change the build prop. I'm about to flash slim Bean 3.1 and then try this out. Will update this post once I finish trying it out . Hopefully all goes well!!!
Well I ended up lagging on the install but just wanna say thanks again because it worked perfectly. First try and not a single problem as of yet. Awesome!!
Glad to help! Hopefully all goes well! If the download stalls just give it a while, my server is a retired galaxy nexus hooked up to WiFi lol. My WiFi sucks sometimes.

Google Wallet Installer for Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 3's(d2vzw)
My application, "WalletInstaller", will install Google Wallet on any Verizon S3. It simply swaps out your build.prop with a modified one and then flashes an open recovery (TWRP 2), and in the open recovery flashes the latest version of Google Wallet along with the required NFC libs for your rom. It downloads all the files from my personal server, which can be somewhat slow, but I'll be upgrading soon. Hopefully there won't be any download issues. Just select the appropriate rom type: AOSP, JB Touchwiz, or ICS TouchWiz. Hopefully it helps you out and makes the process easier! It has been tested on my device, which is running CM10, but the other options haven't been tested, but they should work great. I will also hopefully make it to support all US carrier based S3's after the weekend is over.
My application will be in the market for 99 cents if you feel like supporting the cause(will post link once uploaded), or you can download it here for free. Please don't post links to my application without my personal consent. Thank you!

So I installed the app and set it all up just fine, in fact, I was about to test out wallet at a locat establishment but I noticed something was a little weird. I tried to change my wallpaper to a picture in my gallery. For some reason I got an error that "Not enough space. Delete photos, music, etc." Last time I checked I had plenty of space. I opened up setting and storage to find my device storage has a total of 4GB of space (with close to 2GB's of free space remaining). My S3 is a 16GB unit. Obviously things are a bit haywire. I'm running CleanROM 5.0 at the moment so I'm not sure if your app would conflict with that but things were fine prior to this. What do you think?
when i choose ics touchwiz install it loads terminal emulator and says rm failed for /system/build.prop no such file or directory
I'm not sure if my app would interfere quite like that. It shouldn't, but when messing with the build.prop and a custom ROM you can never be positive. If anything else odd happens, pm me and I'll look into it.

It's possible that your system didn't mount properly, or that your ROM is using some sort of mod that moved the build.prop, or it may have been removed or altered by another application.

I'm sorry that you're having trouble. I included TWRP because it uses an open, unencrypted script file to pass commands to recovery. CWM, from my understanding, requires an encrypted, not so universal script file called extended commands. Depending on what recovery someone was running, flashing a script would not work, or it would possibly brick their device. I wanted to make sure everything was done correctly.
Also... I will take a look at all my server side files today and the app. I can't make changes from where I am, since I don't have ftp setup and I'm out of town, but I can download them and see where I may have gone wrong. My best guess is the build.prop swap causing issues, if any of you have possible leads, post them here and I can attempt a fix later today or tomorrow.
BTW...Wallet worked like a charm in 7-11 and Whole Foods
Taking pictures is a little harder too...have to switch to external to save the pictures....the Camera 4.2 doesn't even allow you to switch to external card.
Would be a shame to scrap this working wallet for these issues

I'm getting ready to attempt a flash on CleanRom in a few minutes to see if that's the only ROM having issues. Hopefully you guys can stick this out until everything's working great ; )
I flashed wallet and libs using my app on CleanRom 5. I was able to replicate the same error as you guys posted. Also, I don't know if you guys checked, but in recovery it mounts the internal sdcard perfectly, so that tells me it may have something to do with CleanRom in specific. I'm going to flash through some stock touchwiz ROMs with Odin and see what results I get in that area. Hopefully it's just a ROM specific ordeal. Sorry for the long posts, just trying to keep you all updated!

Man I admire your work. With your help I have already created a method for Sprint SM-G935U QD2. I'm always willing to be a beta tester if you feel I'm worthy. I would like this thread but I reached my quota lol. I'm going to test this method out as well and post results.
I was on P rooted, wiped cache 3 times, factory wiped data, reboot to bootloader.
In AP i flashed U firmware [BP, AP, CL, CSC] and let it install and run setup. (If you think you're in a boot loop its probably not true because it takes 5-10 mins to reach any setup screen, so wait it out.)
LTE activated, restarted phone, and then i applied Gmail Account. Skip Samsung Account.
After reaching home screen I went to turn on developer options>OEM unlock>usb debugging. TURN OFF verify apps via usb and auto update system.
Turned off Software updates automatically, then clicked manual updates and registered device. Clicked again and let update search.
Auto-updated Security policy in Lock Screen & security. Make sure automatic isn't enabled.
Turn auto update in Google Play Store off.
Close All Recent Apps.
Power Off.
Power On into Download Mode.
Run ODIN Again and insert:
S7edge_Qualcomm.tar into AP. Start flash.
Once reaching home screen, immediately run Command prompt as administrator and redirect folder to:
Nougat_S7_UFitrm_Root_2_79
Type root.bat and then type enter. [Don't run root_with_tweaks.bat]
Device will reboot and don't press any key like it asks you until you reach home page, and device connects to PC by Auto-Run/Opening folder.
When Drive is listed in PC then press enter and SuperSU+Flashfire will install then do a long reboot. 5 mins.
Once at home screen, you will see it is Samsung as carrier. SMS/VOICE should work. MMS/DATA NO.
But we will fix it by going to:
Settings>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names
Delete Wholsales OTA apn by selecting, clicking top right menu, and delete.
Now the Global Roaming APN... select it.
Change the whole APN to:
Name:APN2 LTE Internet
APN:n.ispsn
MMSC:http://www.mms.sprintpcs.com
Multimedia message proxy
68.28.31.7
Multimedia message port:
80
MCC
310
MNC
000 // Do Not CHANGE!
APN type
default,supl,mms,dun,fota
APN Protocol
IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol
IPv4/IPv6
Bearer
LTE,
Top right menu>SAVE! Make sure APN2 LTE Internet is enabled and by the dot being blue. LTE should display icon and reset device to verify it stuck.
Flash LTE Icon FIx with FlashFire which is in App Drawer.
Nougat_S7_Edge_EngBoot.tar.md5 works as well.

They are md5 tar files if they are bad they will fail check by Odin. I'm not sure why you are trying to extract them but 7zip will extract them
Im kinda seeing why there is no development in Sprint forum. Can't get anybody to try anything. The status is the SprintTest rom boots a custom rom with stock boot.img which means this could work just like Verizon does with working samsung pay etc I just need to get data working. I only have one person willing to try stuff. If there is no interest in this rom I will probably close the thread. Im uploading a new Ufirm and a new SprintTest rom but like I said If no interest then I will go back to my world and close the thread
Here is the SprintTest3 Rom Need Testers for this
Need to Be On Stock Sprint Rooted Rom
Here give this a try this is sprint files with Ufirm AP file which I assume you have or use the one from the OP
download this
Sprint_Test3.zip
copy it and the Ufirm AP file to phone. In flashfire add zip mount system when it ask
Add firmware choose AP file. Only select system partition not the other 3.
Flash do full wipe in aroma let me know
Also updated Ufirm in OP to V8 It needs tested. There will be no more updates until there is some interest in this method.

If you could give the SprintTest3 a try I know it boots I switched some CSC stuff and removed a couple of apps so maybe it will connect to network. If it doesnt maybe we can try some things

I am currently on your method [slightly twisted] with 4G enabled. Data but no voice/sms...working on it.
I chose S8 all the way which was probably a mistake.
The installer is quite intriguing.
Remove about everything debloat.
But SuperSU is working fine. Going to start over but it definitely holds a root+data.
Anyways ill keep you posted and Good Job. Thanks.

I will change CSC code to XAS this should allow editing of APNs. I will reupload
The whole point of this rom is not to root the rom If the rom booted it means you have a custom rom running with stock boot.img which should not be possible. Its like the Verizon version if your not rooted you can still use samsung pay snapchat etc and any other safetynet checking apps

Of course, I started over because i was tweaking stuff and my SuperSu got disabled. I'm having a hard time repeating it but ill manage it. Its pissing me off because I've been trying different ways to gain sms/voice but my SuperSu broke and binary needed updating which caused any service to be canceled. This left me with no bars and the do not disturb icon for signal. Because some of the steps don't work like they do for Verizon, a lot of of your files needed to be switched around and flashed multiple times. I had to improvise. but once i secure this process... probably today, I'll type it up if you'd like, or head on to your next plan.
