How to Install Deodexed & Debloated Stock ROM on AT&T Galaxy S7

Here I am with a fresh guide for all AT&T Galaxy S7 users. It seems that a popular XDA member has this smartphone too, so he has prepared a surprise for us. I am talking about muniz_ri who has repackaged a ROM that will update your S7 to the firmware version PF2 while retaining root access.

You should know from the start that this special ROM is not only deodexed, but debloated as well, so this is practically your chance to get rid of all unnecessary system apps from Samsung, AT&T and Google that you will never use.

If you follow the operation here presented, let me tell you that the Modem, Non-hlos, System, Kernel, Recovery, and the Bootloader of your AT&T Galaxy S7 handset will be updated. Even better, you don’t even have to wipe anything before flashing the ROM because the process will automatically wipe all user data on your phone.

However, there are still a few important things to take in consideration before taking the updating operation. First of all, you have to take a backup of al your important data (you may use these guides on How to Backup and Restore IMEI / NVRAM Data on Android Devices or How to Enjoy Backup in Android Marshmallow) to prevent any potential accident and don’t hesitate to plug in the charger. Better waiting a little longer to start the procedure than ending up with a bricked handset, don’t you think?

Even more, this operation will not affect your Knox Warranty Flag, but you still have to be careful about each step that you are taking. And don’t forget to enable USB Debugging on your Galaxy S7 and make sure that you have Samsung’s USB Drivers or Samsung Kies installed on your computer.
