That mistake puts me in trying to flash the note 7 odin not let me do it.
When a firmware is modified, it becomes a custom ROM and to install that you’ll need root and a custom recovery installed on your Note 7.
Not sure how Knox reacts to rooting and Samsung pay as well. Probably exchanging this with my carrier branded or stock note 7 should do the trick for me. Tks
