okay so this is NOT my ROM I am not the dev I just want to share how to install it
on a S7 FLAT T-Mobile. SM-G930T running Android 7.0
Absolutely all credit for the ROM goes to stang5litre
And the ROM thread is here http://stang5litre-roms.proboards.co...on-v1-aroma-s7
You will loose your data, so just be aware to have everything backed up
I am in no way responsible if this ends up bricking, braking, exploding, or harming in anyway your device.
Now the thing is the thread posted above gets very confusing because its meant for all devices that's why I'm making this.
ROOT
Alright so first of all you need to ROOT your S7 (if you already are rooted skip ahead) to do this you need a few files,
For this you can thank Araltd Who posted this thread

Root Engineering: https://ca1.androidfilehost.com/dl/J...-Root-USA.zip?
Modifed ODIN:
https://pa1.androidfilehost.com/dl/h...eComsy%29.zip?
S7 Root Files: https://ca1.androidfilehost.com/dl/j...rriers_V1.zip?
After downloading all the files
Unzip and Open the modifed ODIN
Unzip the ENG boot file
Click AP in Odin
browse to the folder where the ENG boot file is and flash it, (MAKE SURE TO CHOOSE S7 NOT EDGE) phone will reboot continue after boot
Unzip the s7 Root Files you downloaded and and run Root.Bat as admin
Phone will reboot, the command prompt will ask you to install root with tweaks or without, choose to install WITH tweaks
because this will install flashfire which we will need for the ROM.
Reboot the phone again if it doesn't auto reboot.
At this point you will have root, but at the cost of allot of problems...it will be laggy, camera will crash etc etc, you could tweak it with kernel tweaks but instead lets install this ROM which works much better.
FLASHING ROM
Alright, Now More downloads YAY
Download the ROM
http://qc4.androidfilehost.com/dl/fW...oma_s7e_s7.zip
Download the firmware
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962021903579483093
Unzip the Firmware (not the ROM, leave the ROM as ZIP)
Move the TAR file in the firmware folder you unzipped AND the ROM ZIP to your phone
Open Flashfire
Click the Plus sign in flashfire and add ZIP, Add the ROM zip you moved to your Phone, MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE OPTION TO MOUNT SYSTEM
Click the Plus sign again and add firmware, add the Firmware you moved to your phone
Click the plus sign again and select WIPE, Wipe everything except your internal storage.
Click on WIPE and move to the top of the list
the order should read
Wipe
Firmware Image
ROM ZIP
Click Flash and the phone will reboot, wait a while and eventually after you see a bunch of text go by, an ARMOA installer will open.
Now...here's the thing...feel free to play with it because the way I did it might not be the best but nevertheless i'm not re-doing it so Ill tell you what I did to get this ROM up and running...there might be better ways but i'm only sharing my personal experience.
Anyway in the AROMA installer, I chose the t-mobile settings, and I chose it to be rooted, and I chose the VIPER4ANDROID sound settings. then it rebooted
ROOTING IF UNROOTED
First thing that happened, the settings wizard crashed, DON'T PANIC it'll reopen and let you go through it after its all done you'll see magisk BUT upon trying to open it it will force close...Now if you read the thread in the link below they will suggest you run the root.bat file from a folder called Install_Root_V2.zip, you can download this folder here
https://ca2.androidfilehost.com/dl/b...ll_Root_V2.zip
but for me for some reason running this did NOT work, I dont know why...it should have but it didnt, instead it only removed MAGISK and thats it...so go ahead and run it anyway because if it works your done and if it doenst you can follow what i did.
So extract the folder you downloaded
Run root.bat
Select Magisk Manager
phone will reboot
IF MAGISK is GONE and you have NO root then continue.
Make sure ADB DEBUGGING is on, and ADB is setup on your computer, if you dont have ADB setup on your computer you can get it here
http://www14.zippyshare.com/d/ufYG71...etup-1.4.3.exe (thank you snoop05 https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=2588979) Just run and hit Y to everything (CHROME SAYS THE FILE ISNT SAFE, BUT IT IS PERFECTLY SAFE JUST FYI)
After installing open a command prompt and type adb devices, authorize the computer on your phone and make sure you see your device listed to make sure adb is properly working. Now we can continue to the fun.
Unzip Install-Root.zip (inside the Root_v2 folder)
Hold SHIFT and open a command prompt in that location (alternatively cd to that folder)
Now run the following commands pressing enter after each command, make sure they are exact! DO NOT COPY THE WHOLE THING IT MUST BE LINE BY LINE WITH ENTER AFTER EACH LINE
Code:
adb remount
adb uninstall eu.chainfire.supersu >NUL
adb shell rm -r /system/xbin/su
adb push magisk/su.d /system/
adb shell chmod 0777 /system/su.d
adb shell chown 0:0 /system/su.d/*
adb shell chmod 777 /system/su.d/*
adb shell chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /system/su.d/*
adb push magisk/init.sec.boot.sh /etc/
adb push magisk/launch.root.sh /etc/
adb shell chmod 0700 /system/etc/launch.root.sh
adb shell chcon u:object_r:su_exec:s0 /system/etc/launch.root.sh
adb install -r magisk/magisk.apk
adb reboot
Phone will reboot, Magisk will be there, you can open it but there is no need to download the update just hit cancel
Go ahead and download root checker and you'll see you are now fully rooted!
install root uninstaller from the play store and get rid of setup wizard so it doesn't keep crashing

EDIT:
I HAD A POST ON XDA BUT STANG5LITRE GOT MAD AND DID NOT WANT THE POST THERE SO I DELETED IT...STEEMIT IS NOW THE ONLY PLACE WITH ANY TRACE OF INSTRUCTIONS...NEVER INTENDED TO STEAL ANYONES WORK I JUST WANTED TO HELP WITH A WORK AROUND FOR T MOBILE USERS.
Why the fuck do u think its ok to be put up here? No permission once again
I put this up when I put up the XDA post , when asked to delete by stang I deleted the xda post was unable to delete steemit, I also cant edit it anymore there is a 7 day limit on editing on steemit do to blockchain...
I put link to stanges website here, stang said I can link his site Just doesn't want direct links so thats what I did. Unfortunately as i mentioned its impossible to edit or delete posts so after the 7 days was up there was nothing I could do...
MY edit came before the 7 days but during that edit I was unaware the issue was the links and still thought the issue was just XDA and some drama between them, because that’s what I was lead to belive from the original PM I got from JKruse on XDA as there was no details as to why it was to be removed just said “that’s why he left XDA""…that’s when that post was deleted and this one was edited…Shortly After that I found out from Stang why exactly he didnnt want the post on XDA and it was due to the links being out of his control…I tried to go back and edit this post then but no longer could.. at this point the're's nothing Left I can do…Its obvious I never had ill intentions I even credited him clear as day but its out of my hands now..If you want to guide me on how to delete an old thread be my guest but Ive done much research and Steem working on Blockchain makes this a physical impossibility to edit or even delete it. Villainize me all you want but theres nothing I can do now.
If you truly want to know what originally made me think it was okay to share this I can tell you.
Its because I thought I was sharing a free ROM based on Open Source software and giving propper credit to all devs and clearly stating it wasn’t my ROM and I thought that was enough…I see it wasn’t due to all the lashback from you all…
Anyway While I I disagree with not being allowed to share free and open software I do still believe Stang is a talented Developer and would love to, out of respect for his work, be able to remove this thread, if It was possible.
