Foolishness. DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUY.

His "root method" will probably brick your G930/935P. These phones have locked bootloaders and are not the same as the international models. Flashing the international twrp will, at best not work and you'll have to flash stock recovery in odin OR worst case brick your phone and not be recoverable because lack of a stock odin package. If he doesn't know the difference between phone model variants or that a custom kernels and bootloader unlocks would need to be introduced, he is definitely not a developer and doesn't know much about what he is talking about so assuredly. His information and anti-root rhetoric are ...dubious at best
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Robalboa:
Hmmmm. testing same method as s6
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] supreme83:
Test all you want. Post with confirmation and proof. Hint, iirc even back on s6, you'll need to try to flash custom recovery, use a supersu zip that does not modify system folder and or install a custom kernel that roots to allow the phone to boot with modifications. Good luck on the SM-G935P. I think you have a lot to learn
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Robalboa:
appreciate your input

thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] supreme83:
The point is that you should not tell people that incorrect information so assuredly as if you know it to be true. You have repeated that root is possible and posted a method that i'm fairly sure will damage someone's s7. you should edit that post and remove your steps. Currently there is no root method
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Robalboa:
Appreciate your input.

my phone is rooted and modded all bloatware removed no knox

Custom kernel, modified SU, Toybox, etc its just not ready for release. Im just testing

Also this thread is about the warnings of root

maybe you should make a thread about how its impossible to root.

just like we couldnt root any other phone. Hmmmm.

again thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Ramer:
You should be aware that XDA is a developer's forum and therefore you may not be aware of everything that's happening, so please don't be so quick to criticize the OP for posting progress. I, for one, am following closely to gather knowledge.

Looking forward to the progress, although I've learned to like Samsung Pay too much. For me, the only thing I'm missing is being able to do a nanoid. For everything else I've been pretty happy with the S7E. The procedure to create Adoptable storage has made my phone a pleasure to use. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] ram9200:
Lol you can't even flash a kernel on this phone period!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Soooperstar:
Didn't realize you were here. I see you moved on to the 930P. If anyone can come up with a way, I know it's you. You kept us all alive on the S6
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] ram9200:
Ya, I have for now. I will probably move on to htc 10 soon
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] meyerweb:
Nothing in that image proves to me you have a rooted, US spec S7 or S7 edge. In fact, the softkeys at the bottom would sort of indicate it's anything but a Samsung. Can you supply some actual evidence of a rooted US spec device?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Robalboa:
I can say ive bricked 5 phones lol sprint replaced them all i kept 1 new one stock apB5 non updated just to be safe.

This phone will have root access to all soon just be patient. What would it look like to give out something that bricks phones?

Its a violation of xda to knowingly do that any way

I will say there is a collaboration underway to make a consistent root method that does not brick the phone. In fact one guy started a bounty lol but theres almost 5000 dollars raised to the guy or team that cracks it. So relax. Enjoy your phone this is just a thread to warn people who may try to root or achieve root what they are giving up.

I promise ill be the first one to post when it comes and it is coming. That im sure of
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jr71x:
Love the development, who gives a **** about paying with your phone anyway? Does anyone really even use it, if so why? I used it once with the s3, big deal... We need more cowbell, root, root, root!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] supreme83:
I've been on XDA for many years and do private development myself. Thanks for encouraging the posting of misinformation that someone will use to brick their phone. Reread my post. What I said is that this guy is posting false information as if it is true. He even posted steps that definitely will brick a users. Don't encourage all this optimistic stupidity. Wait on developers to get it right, test when we ask...but don't hop on XDA spreading misinformation and don't encourage it as though it's progressing towards something other than junking phones

meyer got it right

The op doesn't even seem to know the differences between the Exynos and Qualcomm variants OR is just blatantly spreading misinformation. These "root" threads pop up all the time with guys that have no idea what they are doing discussing things that they have no idea about and feeling as though they are making process, discussing minuscule bounties and thinking that that will help(looking at you, Verizon and ATT root bounty threads) The op even got indignant as though we are saying no phone can be rooted just because he was corrected about this phones root. He obviously is in need of a reality check as many our when it comes to the new samsung phones and also in need of patience to wait on real developers
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Robalboa:
again thanks for your input.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] LeftyGR:
I got an idea. Let's stay on topic. Topic was a warning as to what you can expect if / when root is ever achieved on this phone. Thank you, enjoy your day.

Have note 3 with sprint right now, but thinking of going to S7 edge. My problem is not being able to use Titanium backup and a few other apps like wifi sharing, which I use with my gps while I'm on the rode. How long before someone figures out how to root the S7 edge?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] LeftyGR:
No clue. It's not really something anyone can guess. If that's really important, stay where you're at until it happens. Or go another route.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] optimummind:
If only Google would allow for data backup like iOS allows. Then it would be one less need for root & apps like Titanium Backup. Sometimes I feel so frustrated at Google for not getting some basics down.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] ronniemation:
try using helium. thats the closest thing to tb for non rooted phones. itll backup your data and app
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] TheMiamiPost:
Sprint S7 is half the phone my Note 3 was. No root? No wifi hotspot? No proper screen cast? (Unless you use the Google app). Mine keeps making the most annoying beeping sound when I press the home button (and often when the phone is in my pocket) that can't be disabled. No custom Roms. No secure case. At this point, I regret choosing this phone over the Note 4. Big-time. I think this glorified paper weight retails for 750.00 U.S. dollars. It's worth half of that at best. This is a 2 star phone at best. At best. The reason Samsung and Android have been so successful is the open source and versatility aspects of their phones. This phone burns 25% of the battery in my pocket at work for 6 hours with little or no use. The bloatware is excessive and frankly garbage. Until we can root this phone, it's not worth switching from your Note. No way.

Unless it's a CDMA phone, wouldn't you then be roaming all the time? I thought the G935F does not have a CDMA radio which would not allow it to be on the Sprint network. The G935O might be OK on Sprint.

Might want to take a second look at the 10... Yeah, no boomsound... But the tweeters at the top are 2 separate with a dedicated amp, and there's a "subwoofer" at the bottom... Also separately amplified, and headphones... 256k audio, also separate amplifier. I have one and I f'ing love that phone!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] pantmunu:
Both smartphones have their pros and cons , we just have to weigh them out. Root should not be the only reason to switch ur smartphones. But for few who absolutely need root.

But the HTC 10 is very tempting. Atleast for me. Should be switching soon and I see root as a plus on the 10 .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] samatagana:
As a recovering avid flashoholic I find myself surprised at what I'm about to type...

Recently I took the plunge from the Note 4 to the S7, fully prepared to hate not rooting and trade it back in and await the Note 6 (or 7) with hopes of an unlocked bootloader. A week later I still have the S7 (much to my girlfriend's surprise) and love it. I can't even use Samsung Pay since my bank lives irs life in the 70's.

I don't say this to start an argument but to offer a different view point... My S7 is putting benchmark numbers up that the Note 4 doesn't have the screen resolution to display. My battery life (after coming to the realization that I could actually use Marshmallow features rather than try and bypass them) is at least double what I was getting on my Note 4. Point in case, Greenify is utilizing Marshmallow's battery saving feature, doze, rather than bypassing it. That says something.

Low light pictures, built in wireless charging, water resistance, edge screen... The list goes on and on. The bloat on the device is minimal and can be disabled or uninstalled.

I found that I was spending so much time just trying to find a ROM that actually worked on the Note 4 that I never had any time to enjoy any of them. CM is still running behind our update and the developers have to work tirelessly to try and put out new ROMs to keep up with things like security updates and firmware upgrades.

And what are the most popular ROMs on the Note 4? ROMs that turn it into something else, the Note 5, the S7, the S7 Edge... The hungry masses look for the features that we have without tripping Knox. Edge screen, Always On Display, etc.

Anyway, I think the HTC 10 is cute, being bulkier, missing built in wireless charging, IP53 (as opposed to our IP68, TMo did our unboxing under water for God's sake) "drizzleproof" rating, failing finger print scanner, inferior SuperLCD 5 (SuperAMOLED), 5.2 (5.5 inch) inch screen, 3000mAh (3600mAh) battery, 161g weight (157g)... But the speakers and type C charging?!?! I'll use my car or Beats headphones and my wireless fast charging dock, thanks.

At the end of the day, in my opinion, the HTC 10 loses out hands down in every category. What about Root? I guess the useability of Samsung Pay, the enterprise level security of Knox and better specs will suffice for me.

This was way too long, I know. But you have to understand that it all comes down to personal preference. For me, I'd rather have my phone working well without having to try and hack it to turn into something else... With the Galaxy Forever deal from Sprint, I'll just upgrade my handset rather than surfing for a port that may or may not have working features.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] bytes2bits:
I can agree with all of that if I could just have my free hot spot too. That's the deal breaker for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] samatagana:
I have had no issues with rebooting and turning it on straight away. It works 4 out of 5 times for me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] bytes2bits:
True. I guess that's better than nothing at all. I assume Foxfi or similar doesn't work either?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] samatagana:
I honestly haven't tried it. I rarely use my Hotspot but it's worked when I've tried. I thought about doing a plan with a couple of gigs of hotspot so that getting it free was a non-issue in the future. I have a hard time believing that Samsung will release the new Note unlocked and I think that they make an amazing phone.

It seems to me like a lot of people are either upset we don't have root or jumping ship. From my perspective, as limited as it may be, it seems like we should concentrate our efforts on finding ways to have the best of both worlds. How can we accomplish our root goals without it. The world seems to be moving towards electronic banking and with that security measures will continue to amp up. We either fight a system that will change regardless or we find different avenues of approach.

NOW root is achievable for the US variants. Engineering bootloader flash, custom odin, root script,.....etc It's systemless and doesn't trip knox i believe...IT IS NOTWHATEVER THE OP IS CLAIMING (which had to be for international variant IF even real at all)

no custom kernel possible due to security

I received the Verizon quick charge bundle yesterday. Quite a deal for the battery, the car charger and the new slanted Samsung wireless charger. It seems like the wireless charger is pretty snappy, but with no replaceable battery, what will using it do to the long term battery life of the S7E?

Is it OK to use it whenever? Like frequently putting the phone on the stand to get it from 90 to 100%? Or leaving it on the stand all day or all night? Any tips on how the wireless quick-charging technology works and its effect on battery life would be much appreciated. Thanks.
