almost the 28th - lol - fingers crossed but I'm just so skeptical that this mid/oldish phone will get 7.0 - lol - and although skeptical, I'm trying to stay optimistic ! Come on Nougat !!!

[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] remotehugger:
I haven't at all - for a phone I got for 40 bucks with the metro promotion its been great - no reboots - pretty darn good battery life - been happy with it - I'm not rooted though - I want to be but wanted to wait and see if it got the Nougat update first for some reason -

I wonder what features nougat will bring to the table. Granted we won't get s8 like features but the fact nougat is coming to our phones is more than we can ask for. And now i don't have to worry about upgrading to the crappy J7 prime. That phone sucks lmao. Also, i read somwhere that there is no oem unlock on that phone lol lol. Anyone that thinks that the j7 prime is an upgrade from the original j7 is fooling themselves lol.

when flashing back to recovery is it the same process as rooting and how do i tell if ive successfully did it
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] thereallinkieishere:
Step by step:

Enable OEM unlock

Boot into odin mode

Download a TWRP

Open Odin and select the recovery through the AP slot

Plug in the device and click start

As soon as it passes and the phone reboots, quickly unplug the battery to avoid over writing the recovery to stock

Then, press the volume up, home and power button till you boot to TWRP

Flash SU zip (ONLY from external SD)

Then flash the encryption breaker

Only then will you be rooted child. ^^ PM me if you need help

---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:16 PM ----------

Just be warned that nougat MIGHT be on it's way today. Wait all day today for the update and I it does come, install it and THEN root. Because remember that TWRP make OEM updates not possible. Or you can play with Flashfire if you happen to find the update online. Choice is yours but I suggest you wait all day today

oh man - never seen or heard of anything like that before ! google is your friend !
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] LegzRwheelz:
Not 100% certain, but it is probably related to Knox being tripped. What do you think [MENTION=7791914]Metabolic12[/MENTION] and [MENTION=8146955]fullofhell[/MENTION]?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
It's his kernel. The international threads explain that a permissible kernel ie flash or afterburner something like that need flashed to enable secure folder specifically
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] LegzRwheelz:
Oh, cause it's permissive?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Metabolic12:
It's a couple of things actually. The kernel not being SELinux enforcing is the first part. The second is when you flash a ROM, root your device or flash TWRP (or any aftermarket) recovery it changes the binary from official to custom. I think that as long as the System says official inside of settings or in download mode you can setup the Secure Folder. There's a Xposed module that changes your system status back to official, I would give that a try and see if it works for you. Hope this helps, and if did hit thanks! :D
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
What is the MS mean at the title of this thread..I swore it was never there before.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Nicolai231215:
In settings status it says official and in download mode it says official and on the binary it says official samsung but in warranty it says warranty void : 1

A little help?

Heya! It seems I've run into a snag when connecting my phone (MS-J700T1) via USB in Download Mode. When connected in normal operation mode, I can see the device in my windows explorer, transfer files back and forth, etc. Everything seems fine. However, when I connect the phone in download mode, Windows (Win 10 x64) reports an error:

"Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"

Same cable, same USB port. I tried various other ports (No HUBs), and cables all to the same effect.

I even went so far as to download the Samsung drivers from the Samsung website. Still with no effect.

Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.

Help! phone is no longer booting!

I have tried following the various steps to rooting my metro pcs samsung galaxy j700t.

After the distorted screen I reloaded it and I didn't see superuser. I restarted and now it is giving me an error that I cannot escape from:

"Verfication failed

Unable to restart your device. The in-tegrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data."

Below that is a button that says "Reset" and after trying to reset it just keeps bringing me back to the same error screen.

I think I need to just not root this phone because I am currently unemployed and I desperately need it for finding a job.

EDIT: I am redownloading and retrying as that is the only other option the phone is giving me atm.

EDIT2: This attempt at redownloading didn't help. Someone pls help.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
I had that error before. Basically the rom halted while booting up. Just hold the power button until you see the power options and reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
All u have to do is flash the super su zip in twrp.

Bam u are rooted.

To fix this issue u are experiencing u must download latest firmware, BqI5 I believe, then flash in ap slot with Odin. Then reflash twrp, wipe via format type yes, flash super su zip then encryption break zip. Then u are fine. U screwed up by not disabling encryption. These instructions are the only fix. Use updates by android on web or play store, also known as updato for firmware files.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] flyersfan9191:

After root you can recover most of your data with disk digger pro.

I did read the thread. It was on the same day as when I learned there were differences between my j7 and how many j700*'s there are. I know it might be hard to conceptualize being new to this kinda thing but I am still trying to pop my root cherry, if you will.

I will be reading your link very carefully and will try again today.

I want to be clear before I begin trying again.

1.) In my phones (2016 Galaxy J700t1) current state I cannot receive texts and cannot connect to the internet via wifi. With that being said, as a few users have said, will I be able to recover my old phone contents as well as root my phone from where I am?

2.) After having said that, is that link applicable to my current state, or should I start from a certain step?

3.) Before I begin removing samsung bloatware and fortifying my phone, what should I keep away from doing? Common mistakes people make post-root?

Also, I want to say thank you so much to everyone who is trying to assist me in fixing this issue. Your responsiveness has been uplifting as I felt hopeless just shy of 24 hours ago.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
I told you, look up a few posts, download the latest firmware from updato, install via Odin. Once u get back up as stock normal. Start over and use ashyx's thread to install twrp. Once u do that u format type yes flash root zip either SuperSU or magisk then the no verity no encrypt zip aka encryption breaker zip. That is all there is to it. Why root and stay stock though?my team and I have brought u all way cooler ROMs than just stock. I would read or at least glaze over the entire j700T threads to educate yourself. Never do any phoning until u previously read everything about what u are trying to do. That's the unspoken rules bro. Good luck

Im so happy right now. lol. I was skeptical but this method worked for me for Metro PCS J7 Model SM-J700T1 running Android marshmallow 6.0.1 . I got it on the 2nd try because you haveta be very quick on holding the vol up & home key after flashing the auto root file. Hold it just as the progress bar reaches the end.

Just rooted my J700T1, yesterday, and everything was working great except two things I noticed.

The first, tiny annoyance, was that ES File Explorer can't get root mode, although other root apps seem to work fine. 'not supported by this device'

The second, though, happened when I turned the phone on this morning, and worries me a LOT more. "Custom binary (recovery) blocked by FRP Lock". It won't boot, just shuts itself off, unless I drop into download mode or recovery. ODIN can see it, and I can flash the recovery-- but I can't go back and REflash the root.tar, try re-rooting it from scratch.

Anyone able to help me out? please?
