Just wanted to give a huge thankyou to you from the future, sladflob. Doubt I'd ever have thought to disable call audio for pairing to my bodged Bovee bluetooth adapter, and this has solved my constant dropout and reconnects.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alfa Kenny One:
Guys,

Do anybody know how to show the nav keys in Marshmallow? Like in Android 5.0 it was like "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0".

I added this line in build.prop but nothing seems to happen after reset. Any suggestions?:confused:
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alfa Kenny One:
May someone try and confirm of it is working or not in his device?

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noob924:
Maybe the value should equal to 1?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alfa Kenny One:
I tried the values: 0, 1, true, false

None of them worked

iv tried installing a full stock rom but the phone will not stay in flash boot mode!

iv been trying to fix it for hours now and not nowhere i hope this can be fixed as my only alternative phone right not is an iphone and i HATE them lol
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkoopMan:
flash a stock ROM by flash-tool then hold volume- button while the device restarting and put in the usb cable it should be in fast-boot so u can flash stock ROM
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steparker1991:
tried with no luck =( i fear iv hard bricked my device
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronkatrini:
There is no hardbrick for xperia z , at least not in your situation.

Please try with an older firmware and keep in mind that for the phone to start the flash process you have less than a minute for the phone to be recognized by the pc before it restarts.

Good luck

hey sorry forgot to reply, my phone is now all working again i had to flash one of the oldest ROMs for the XZ to get it running again.

hello all, can somebody advise me how to root my new galaxy s7 edge using a Mac? It seems like all the best software out there is Windows only at this point. Thanks for the help in advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] HNIC215:
You can't root the AT&T Galaxy S7 Edge - you can't root any AT&T android phones from what I understand.

They have locked the bootloader - Haven't been able to root for a few generations now.

Your best bet is the international variant or a T-Mobile Unlocked variant.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] ITNV:
The locked bootloader has definitely slowed down development of rooting methods but so far it's still been possible. I've had an S3, S4, S5 and S6 and all have been rooted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] s8freak:
Personally I do believe there'll be a root exploit for the S7 Edge but it'll soon be patched.

If so then once you're rooted don't plan on taking any updates the exploit will be patched and that'll be it.

There'll be no custom kernels or TWRP.

FlashFire should work though and with that possibly Xposed with some modding possible.

All of this is purely conjecture of course.

There's a real possibility of no root at all as well.

Does anyone know what features will lost on the galaxy s7 edge if I were to root the device? Will Samsung pay still work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] s8freak:
So far there isn't any root available for any S7 Edge devices .

If there is eventually I'm assuming that yes Samsung Pay will not function.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] HNIC215:
Yup, from my understanding - if you root at all, EVER - Samsung Pay will be permanently disabled on that device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] JayRollaTSi:
Most root options will kill the KNOX chip which is needed for NFC security causing no payment options to work over NFC.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nooomoto:
Uh...my AT&T Nexus 6 is rooted. Development has really dropped off, but I wouldn't say it's definitely not going to happen. I really want the S7 Edge, but the lack of the ability to root is making me hold off. I'm a huge impulse buyer and this is making me nuts LOL.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] JayRollaTSi:
I finally broke down and bought it. Im coming from an HTC M8 and have flashed roms on every android I've owned. Didnt want to wait for new Nexus or M10 so I broke down and just bought a phone. I finally think im over the modding stage of phones because they just work like they should now. Finally!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] scott14719:
I agree. I've never had an Android phone that wasn't rooted, but I have yet to see a reason to even root the S7. I realize there are hardcore modders out there that just need root, and that's cool and maybe someday (if root is available) I will root this phone as well. I just haven't seen a need for it yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] thin_aire:
For me, the biggest reason to have root on a Samsung phone is their poor track record with providing updates especially on carrier branded phones.

I still carry an AT&T Galaxy Note 2 and have full Android Wear integration because I have root and can install good custom ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] ElBeaner:
OR MST as it will kill Samsung Pay all together
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nicetucu:
When I first got my S5 from at&t, I, of course, rooted it as soon as it was possible. It came with that lame ISIS card (that American Express) changed the name for obvious reasons to soft card. It used NFC and I could use it when rooted through an app in xposed to grant access.

This was all done with a locked bootloader. Seems like with each new phone it becomes more and more difficult, but usually find some kind of workaround.

I never tripped KNOX. It's still 0x0.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] czucker:
Regarding KNOX, it's my understanding that there have been some root exploits on previous generation phones that did not trip it. Is that incorrect?

I'm hoping something will come around for the S7 that will leave KNOX intact. I've never really used any NFC payment methods and could definitely live without them, but it does seem to me that this is the generation where Samsung Pay, Android Pay, etc, are really going to come into their own. . . .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] s8freak:
It isn't root that trips Knox it's flashing a custom recovery and or custom kernel and since the bootloader is locked down tight I doubt seriously if we have to worry about that.

If there will be a root for the G935A FlashFire doesn't trip Knox and will work if a dev will build a Stockish T/W Rom.

Actually I'd be happy to root just for Xposed so I can use 3minit battery mod and center clock

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] czucker:
Agreed. While A small part of me misses CM, I actually don't mind the TouchWiz on the S7. I would be happy staying stock and being able to run a few root apps. Titanium Backup, BBS, etc. . . .

Seems like folks keep tossing in that the phone may never get rooted. . . . Has that really happened with any of the flagships? It seems like most phones do eventually get opened up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] s8freak:
Yes the ATT and Verizon Note5 never had Root and after one of the updates the S6 Edge wasn't rootable either.

We'll see but IF someone does drop root on us don't unroot and take an update they'll patch that exploit ASAP

once the root is released and hopefully soon cause I'm dying here. lol. Ive never had to root a phone before, but I feel now is time. More I read about it more it pulls me. Only question I honestly have is.... what all do you loose by rooting your phone? I know you gain a lot, but no one really specifys on what you loose. Can someone share the negativeness of rooting, if there is any? Id really apreciate all your responses.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] toolhas4degrees:
you lose samsung/android pay. also knox usually needs to be partially or fully removed because it glips with root (which is less secure) these are the only negatives I have found
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] s8freak:
Which just for me personally I've never used Samsung Pay or any equivalent. So the gains for me are significant.

Also and this is just for me tripping Knox doesn't bother me either.

There are no Nexus 6 phones offered by ATT, at lease in the south florida market. I checked online. maybe they used to be. THEY WILL NEVER RELEASE A PHONE WITH AN UNLOCKED BL. A-HOLES!

Still trying to figure out what I am going to do in June when I own my G900A (S5) with my beloved beautiful rooted custom rom. I do not want to give up VIPER. The phone is still great and fast. Just has original 5.0 OC4 on it...LOL. I am hoping that when M comes to my phone in May sometime supposedly it will be able to be rooted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] samccfl99:
I loved ISIS/SOFTCARD on my ATT S5 and it was able to work using RootCloak in Xposed and they gave plenty of promo bucks the whole time they were in existence. But when it folded (and bought out by GOOGLEY) the Android Pay and Samsung pay will not work rooted. CRAP!

AND WHERE WILL CUSTOM ROMS COME FROM IF ROOTED ANYWAY ON A S7???

Can you get a nice big CLEAR button on an S7 with "M" like the screenshot attached (first one is an older lockscreen during xmas, 2nd current notification panel) ??? LOLOLOL.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nooomoto:
Probably because the Nexus 6 production ended due to the release of the Nexus 6P. I did indeed buy it from AT&T on the Next plan. I was thoroughly upset that Google decided to stop selling through carriers. And now again with this locked bootloader thing for the S7.

Viper was great I remember running it one my HTC One X a while back.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] mocsab:
I have been using Tmobile Phones on Att since the S4 days when ATT first locked the Bootloader. I have purchased every flagship device since- from Note 2 to Note 5 - S6 and now S7 Edge. Every one of my phones I rooted and flashed custom roms - and I hoped to do the same with my S7 Edge. Unfortunately, that ain't happening right now - it might change, if TMO gets Samsung to go along and offer a way to unlock our bootloaders if we want to - but that is a BIG IF - fingers crossed, but I am not holding my breath.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] GorgeousNightmare:
Same here - I've always rooted. I could probably live without the root, but what I really need is the ability for the wifi tether to work. I've seen some talk about how the S7 will have the repeater feature, but will the hotspot work using my grandfathered unlim plan without root?

This is a refurbished one for $17 a month on Next 30 plan. Too bad it is only 32gb and I would never get a phone without an sdcard and 6" is a bit big for me. I wonder if they have managed to lock it down too...LOL. Kinda outdated camera, eh? Oh well.

Thanks for pointing this out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] glm0025:
I moved to T-Mobile since ATT locked down bootloaders so imagine my surprise when the S7 came out and found out its locked too. I would love root and unlocked bootloaders but lately haven't found myself needing it too much, apart from updating to the most recent OS (since carriers take too long) root has been wasted on myself.

Same here , as a long time hater of TW I can honestly say my experience with the S7 has been pretty great.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] buradd:
that is a bummer, samsung pay is pretty awesome.. every checker always tells me as i grab my phone out "oh we dont support that android/apple pay" or "our mobile pay isnt working right now"

i just tell them, it will work.. and it works... then i have to educate them that its using magnetic transmission instead of nfc and the phone is awesome.

i only have my chase cards supported right now, i can't wait for my capital one cards to be supported..

oh and the camera, i thought going from 16mp to 12mp was gonna be worse, but this S7 camera is like photographer grade stuff.. insanely fast focus and snap, perfect photos every time.. the video is pretty amazing too, my hat is off to samsung on this one.. this and android M, no need for root anymore.

Yea. I remember when Android first came out. Loved my OG moto Droid. rooted, overclocked... Had that thing running around 1.2 gig if I remember. It was a screamer. Roted all my phones up until my S6 Edge. had root for a while, but with the locked boot loader couldnt do much with it. rocked it stock for an entire year. really dont miss much about root. main thing I liked about root was that it allowed me to use tethering. but now I have that as part of my plan so it really isnt needed. Wish I could debloat the phone, but disabling un needed apps in the settings menu seems to work ok. So yea, now i buy a phone for its features, not for its ability to be rooted...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] glm0025:
Nexus 6 comes with an unlockable bootloader and bloat free so you can't honestly compare it to Samsung devices. Although it is branded as AT&T not much changes from a unit bought directly from Google as opposed to a Galaxy S7 which is locked down at AT&T's request and damn near impossible to unlock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] 52brandon:
I got the S7 from an S5, but it was rooted. Well, halfass rooted. If you got the AT&T S5 early enough, you could fully root it. But, in my situation, it had to be bootstrap rooted. It still allowed for custom ROMs and root-required apps. But no kernels, which was a bummer. Custom kernels were one of the major reasons I first got into rooting on the D1 to begin with. I was able to keep that phone running better than any stock phone out for a couple years and it didn't take much of a battery hit because when I didn't need the damn near double overclock, it underclocked to like 10%. Though now stock kernels adjust their speed similarly, but not as drastically as custom kernels can. I hope we get root. REAL root. But even bootstrap root is ok by me. It still lets me use apps I want

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] adalex:
Just my opinion but I'd be perfectly content with no root if at&t pushing a update that allowed the removal of all bloatware and other useless apps (including the att ones). I remember on my s4 with ISIS pay and then obviously they changed it but when the service was discontinued I couldn't use it and if I updated it, it wouldn't work. So I was basically stuck with a program that I couldn't use or remove so I disabled it. I was pleasantly surprised during the next to last update that I saw they removed it but it didn't do anything on mine but when I enabled it again and when to click on it, it said application isn't installed and disappeared. I'd rather they removed facebook,uber,all att bloat, direct tv etc etc. Even if they didn't force uninstall it but just let us know that we can uninstall it manually which wold give us the option to download it if we actually want/need it. Plus it would free up a lot of space. Just my .02
