Greetings! Can this be the solution to my problem?

Posted this another thread by mistake. Sorry noobie here and I honestly don't know where to post this.

===

I have a Samsung S7 Edge from a local carrier and I immediately rooted it successfully using Odin+CF Auto-Root. But lo and behold, after a couple of weeks I wanted to try our Xposed so I searched got some files and tried doing it. I was "able" to flash the install file using TWRP and then my nightmare started.

Bootloop after bootloop and I kept on seeing the "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" error on top. I was helpless.

Good thing i chanced upon a blog from Sammobile and it had stock firmware from my carrier. Downloaded it and flashed through Odin. BUT i only flashed the AP file and not the other files (CSC_HOME, BL, etc.) that came with the whole zipfile from sammobile and it got my phone working again.

I tried rooting again using CF Auto-Root through Odin 3.12.3, like what I initially did before but after rooting the dreaded error of "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" appeared again and bootloop phases soon followed. I tried several times (after flashing stock rom and trying root) but the same result.

Right now my phone is okay but unrooted.

Any suggestion on what I can do now to root?

Was it wrong for me to just flash the AP file instead of the whole 5 files when I went back to stock firmware?

I have Odin 3.12.3 and CF-Auto-Root-hero2lte-hero2ltexx-smg935f.tar to root my Samsung S7 Edge (G-935F)

Thanks in advance mates! Cheers!

Hi respected members, just want to share here, I recently flash Android 7.0 on my Samung S7 Edge since I wasn't on same region. So far I am enjoying Android 7.0 very much and still so far I am not having issue in any ways. For newbie, what I have done so far.

1- Download Android 7.0 BTU from Official Site via Premium Membership since I have waiting.....

2- Donwload and open Odin v3.11.1 as Admin

3- Reboot Samsung S7 Edge in Download Mode by pressing and Hold Home + Power + Volume Down, once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press Volume Up to continue and connect with your PC/Laptop

4- Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

5- Select AP, BL, CP and CSC (Note Home_CSC) on desired slots

6- In Odin, I checked the following options

a- Auto-Reboot

b- Re-Partition (I read this on sammobile forum)

c- F. Reset Time

7- Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes, it will reboot.

Note: This will wipe your Internal Memory for sure. Back up your data if you want through Tatinium or other such application

Since I was rooted on Marshmallow because I want to use Call Master which is necessary to my need so I planned to root my S7 edge on Android 7.0. I am now rooted without any issue (Big thanks to Chainfire and jcadduono) and running my all rooted apps as well. So what I have done so far for rooting.

1- Go to Settings > About device. Tap 7 times on Build number to enable Developer options

2- Now go to Settings > Developer options. You need to enable OEM unlock, USB debugging

3- Donwload and run as Odin v3.11.1 as Admin

4- Download this file twrp-3.0.2-4-hero2lte.img.tar

5- Reboot Samsung S7 Edge in Download Mode by pressing and Hold Home + Power + Volume Down, once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press Volume Up to continue and connect with your PC/Laptop

6- Open Odin and place that twrp-3.0.2-4-hero2lte.img.tar file in the [AP] slot and disable Auto-Reboot, then press Start

7- Hold Volume Down + Home + Power to get out of Download mode and immediately swap to Volume Up when the screen blanks.

8- At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.

9- Now Wipe > Format Data > Type Yes. Once done then Press back button until you reach on Main Menu. Once reached then Press Reboot > Recovery

10- After rebooting, you will again reach TWRP Recovery. Now again swipe

11- Download no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip, however, the latest version is 5.1 but I used 5.0 because I was facing issues on 5.1 but you can still use 5.1 if you want. Now without exiting TWRP, transfer the no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip to your device over MTP (you need to stay connect with PC via cable) and flash it using Install in TWRP and reboot again into recovery mode

12- Download the latest SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip. Now without exiting TWRP, transfer the SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip to your device over MTP (you need to stay connect with PC via cable) and flash it using Install in TWRP and reboot again into recovery mode

Hope this helps

Regards

I'm in nougat UK and i installed the last twrp just to have a btter custom recovery. I followed the tutorial correctly( i customize my phones by years ), flashed twrp trough Odin, untick auto reboot, boot to twrp and flahed no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1 trough MTP. When the flash was finnished i received a red error message, something like "can not mount data". I rebooted the phone and i'm stucked i samsung logo. Well, i reflashed the ROM again, and this time i choosed HOME CSC and i did'nt loose anything, thx GOD!

Now, i'm reading some posts and i din't know if i understabd verywell, but, it seems that i have to select fomat data before flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1 ? Or This problem is happening because of the encryption in Nougat and still have not discovered a safe way to solve?

Sorry for bad English

Urgent Help needed.

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but my S7E seems to be completely dead.

Was on the latest twrp recovery as of posting this.

My problems first arose, when I went to flash a new rom. Both roms i tried flashing (Renovate 5.1.0 and Helios 7.0.2) resulted in the aroma installer freezing part way through the flashing process and necessitating hard reset. I did notice that the Helios rom which used Aroma installer 2.70rc2 (i think) got further in the install process than the renovate rom which used aroma installer version 3.0 i believe. On one occasion, the Helios 7.0.2 Rom reached 100% and finished flashing but when I rebooted it would loop back forth, for around 20 minutes (i was in the shower). I put the phone into recover again and tried flashing the Helios rom again but aroma crashing quite early on this time. This time when I rebooted the device i was greeted with a black screen and a static/solid blue notification led light. Have tried to boot into recovery and download mode as well as doing a hard and a soft reset, however the phone remains unresponsive and dead. It also doesn't respond to charging.

Thanks Please Help.

re: rom issues

You will get better and more useful results if you post your questions regarding

the issues and problems you are experiencing with the roms you flashed in the

corresponding rom threads where you downloaded the roms from.

Good luck,

Have a great day!

Want to use TWRP to backup EFS and still use stock

Double post
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] naruto.ninjakid:
Is my thinking here correct or will I have to wipe data anyway to be able to boot stock rom with twrp and no root? I wanted to backup everything in TWRP first before I start modifying the device?

Scenario I'm trying to do. " Hey guys if i just want twrp to backup efs and boot sttock rom can i follow all steps in op, boot twrp, dont swipe to allow system modifications, move dm-verity and force encryption disabler.zip to device using mtp and flash. This will let me boot stock ROM and still have twrp to make efs backup? Would appreciate any insight."

Hello I recently got an S7 Edge G935-W8 and am looking to flash TWRP 3.0.2-4 onto it through Odin. It is not flashing though, as when Odin completes the flashing process I am still at the stock android recovery and not TWRP.

I wonder what I am missing.

If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you

Edit: Figured it out. I had to do it four times, and on the fourth time I immediately held power, home button and volume up after reboot.

Good evening [MENTION=8000280]GearCEO[/MENTION],

Thank you for your tutorial (January 19th, 2017, #1671).

I used it to install Android 7.0, TWRP and rooter my S7 Edge. The installation was held without any problem.

Concerning the root applications which I use :

- Titanium Backup, AdAway, Aptoïde, ES To explore, Greenify function correctly ; :cowboy:

- Lucky Patcher (version 6.4.5) does not function. With the launching of this application I have a blocking then a restarting of Android. Even problem Root-Explorer (Version 5.0.0) which remains blocked on a black screen. :crying:

I am interested by any information being able to correct these problems. :eek:

Good evening.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Pho3nX:
It's a problem only on Nougat TouchWiz ROM because of some Knox/Kernel security (actually Lucky Patcher, Freedom & some others rooted App cause crash, freeze or rebbot when Root is granted). You do not have this problem with AOSP ROMS 7.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] marceldenice:
Hello @ Pho3nX and thank you for your answer.

Is this problem fixed in this Rom Touchwiz Nougat 7. 0 (Or in version 7. 1. 1 ?) or in Lucky Patcher (... and other applications having the same problem)?

Would you recommend me an AOSP ROM 7. 1. 1

STABLE

?

Thank you for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Pho3nX:
Not really, development progress fine but it's a little bit too early to switch on AOSP ROM for a daily use (Camera quality is bad & Unstable, Audio problem, Bluetooth parity problem)

I can't recommand a AOSP ROM because their base is for all the same! I prefer RR because it's the base update with all day a new nightly available.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Pho3nX:
I found the solution for this problem, i'm right, it's a problem only with stock kernel on Nougat TouchWiz. From Kernel Sources for Nougat are out, Custom Kernel also ^^

Let's Go, Install in this order:

1/The best ROM Nougat TW: [ROM][STABLE][TW][N][7.0][DPLT][19.01.17][SM-G935F/FD/K/L/S/W8] SuperStock-Rom V2.4

<> I advise to install in the Aroma <>

-Kernel Selection -> choose SuperKernel 2.0

-Kernel Control app -> choose Synapse

-Recovery Update -> choose Update Recovery TWRP to 3.0.2-5 (if you are always in 3.0.2-4)

-Select your build.prop tweaks -> choose Stock build.prop tweaks

-Select your init.d tweaks -> choose No init.d tweaks

-Root -> Don't install Magisk > choose SuperSU 2.79 SR3 > choose busybox > for Viper4Android (Normal/ARISE or No V4A but not the Magisk V4A)

-SoundMod -> if you want use, select "install sound mod Level 0 (Stock Volume), if not "use stock sound

-Emojis -> select that you want

-Modem & Bootloader -> Update All if you are not sure

At the end of the Aroma install, reboot and go to your fresh nougat ROM. After that, you can update the latest custom Kernel in TWRP

2/ The latest Custom Kernel for Nougat TW: [KERNEL][STABLE][TW][N][7.0][DPLT][20.01.17][SM-G935F/FD/W8] SuperKernel V2.0.1

For update the 2.0 to 2.0.1

Reboot and return on Nougat, you will be unroot, it's normal, ramdisk has been changed, reboot and install again SuperSU 2.79 SR3 in TWRP

3/ The latest SuperSU version: SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742

Because flash the new kernel 2.01 remove root, reflash SuperSU now ;)

After that, all WORK PERFECTLY, you can use Synapse if you want tweak but it's for Pro users, you can keep just like this. Enjoy all LP, Freedom and all others apps freeze/reboot on Nougat ROM in the past

Good evening @ Pho3nX and a very big thank you for your installation tutorial of the ROM SUPER-KERNEL 2.4.

I installed it by following your advice ... and everything works ... including Lucky Patcher !

I will reinstall the backup of all my applications And in a few days I will give you a feedback.

One last question : Is there a version of Xposed Framework adapted to Androïd 7.0 ?

Good evening.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Pho3nX:
Happy for you, Xposed for Nougat is always on developpment for the moment, all the Android community wait since few months ;)

A last advise, in Titanium BackUp restore only your Apps/Games without data & NO system Apps !! It's the base for a good stability

Hello [MENTION=5308099]Pho3nX[/MENTION]

After the update with TWRP of SuperKernel 2.0.1 I reflash SuperSU with version v2.79-SR3-20170114223742. At the restart of Androïd I had a permanent block on the display 'SAMSUNG' with the blue LED on and flashing ... with the need to reinstall the ROM. On the other hand I flashed SuperSU with the version SuperSU-v2.78-SR2-20161029143931 ... which does not cause blocking.

I am interested in any information regarding this blockage.

Good evening
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] MasterThiefGarrett:
In the first post step 10 says the following:

If you want to be rooted with SuperSU:

Download the latest SuperSU by Chainfire.

Without exiting TWRP, transfer the SuperSU zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.

You will need an external SDcard for this method, if you don't have one you will have to use adb sideload to install SuperSU.

If you only want a bootable system partition:

Download the latest dm-verity and force encryption disabler zip.

Without exiting TWRP, transfer the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.

Note: This does not disable the forced encryption on Bxxx firmware, only Axxx firmware due to a change in vold by Samsung.

Instead of transferring files with MTP, can't we just put the files on the external SD card before we flash TWRP and stuff?

I mean wouldn't that result in the same situation? I think of it like 'coming prepared' right? :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Pho3nX:
After update SuperKernel 2.0.1 your must boot on Nougat, you do not flash SuperSU directly after the Kernel!

1/ In TWRP you update SuperKernel 2.0.1, reboot on Nougat,

2/ Return in TWRP, update with SuperSU 2.79 SR3, and this time SuperSu will update your actual configuration (ramdisk, system)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Galactus:
External SD card is fine
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] marceldenice:
Hello @ Pho3nX,

For flashing Super_Kernel 2.0.1 (For updating) then flashing SuperSu I have respected the procedure you remind me, namely :

« After update SuperKernel 2.0.1 your must boot on Nougat, you do not flash SuperSU directly after the Kernel !

1/ In TWRP you update SuperKernel 2.0.1, reboot on Nougat,

2/ Return in TWRP, update with SuperSU 2.79 SR3, and this time SuperSu will update your actual configuration (ramdisk, system).”

What is most important is that the ROM 7.0 SuperKernel v2.4 works properly ... which seems to be the case. I will keep you informed if I discover other malfunctions.

Good day.

Flash Magisk in TWRP, and then phh zip in TWRP, install the magisk Manager app from play store as well phh superuser app from play store. In magisk Manager, tick "Magisk Hide" and reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Misterjunky:
re: TWRP issues

Try powering down the phone then press volume-up and the power key

at the same time to get into twrp recovery and then flash the rom.

If you cannot get into twrp recovery properly you will need to odin

flash the twrp-3.0.2-4-herolte file before doing anything else.

Be sure to do a full wipe including factory reset in twrp before you

start flashing the rom.

The aroma installer will guide you thru the rom installation procedure.

Good luck,

Have a great day!

Get into twrp and transfer magisk 10.2

Install via twrp

2.reatart and download magisk Manager and phh from play store
