That's what I'm trying figure out
We don't know your exact model number because you can't get in the device.
So try Odin patch B .

If doesn't work you will need to try downloading model number sm-G988u1 with VZW CSC in Frija and repeat everything same.

Nope, I purchased this phone exactly 3 years ago in May from the Verizon store in my town !

 

[MeeshP]

Is this the correct PATCH File for Odin ? Once you give me the ok I'll delete the other ODIN .

 

[mustang7757]

Yes

 

[MeeshP]

Ok downloading now. I will try it first without changing the model # in Frija-- If that doesn't work ill go and change the Model # in Frija. If I do change the Model # in Frija what else do I need to do after that? Will it automatically change everything in the other files?

 

[mustang7757]

So if sm-g988u doesn't work with patch when going to sm-g988u1 with VZW CSC it converts to unlock version , can down the road go back to the carrier version because these are all Samsung official firmware and not alternating the firmware like with Root or changing ROM from stock .

 

[MeeshP]

Ok Loaded ! Going to transfer the Frija to the correct slots and hope it works. I will change # if not . My question is though when u go change the model # in Frija will it automatically change the files in the second photo ?
