[MENTION=2690621]airmaxx23[/MENTION] The adb commands dont execute as quick as you may think. Open cmd as Administrator, cd to your directory where fastboot and adb are are just type "root" and leave it plugged in patiently

Now that I'm rooted, can we flash any s7 edge rom ? Does it have to be specific for Verizon to work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Silkmeister1:
​

Our bootloader is locked! We cant flash any roms until someone cooks up a safestrap for us to use. And only then we can use roms based off of touchwiz... Much like Hashcode's safestrap for the S5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] airric00:
bummer...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
I'm on PE1 (SM-G930V) personally and can't vouch for other firmwares. As of right now, the framework-res.apk is only available to Verizon users on PE1. If you don't care about disabling Verizon's WiFi hotspot tethering provisioning, then use the universal one. Good luck!

Yep. Go to my main post and at the end I credit Wanam for Xposed. Click the credit to go to his Xposed thread here at XDA where he includes download links. One of them is an uninstall .zip.

any news on the new su binary? it started saying it needs to be uodated today and ive lost root for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] light24bulbs:
Has anyone tried this on exynos? This might be a no KNOX root method that works on exynos! Really curious. Something tells me that eng kernel is only for snapdragon though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] airmaxx23:
The bat file would just pop open a window and close in about 1 second. It's not mentioned in the instructions but I got it working by moving all of the SU files in the zip to the location of adb.exe and run the bat file from there.

Can anyone enlighten me on the Hurricane-like-icon that showed up on my G930T? Which app is behind it and how to get rid of it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] airric00:
That's what I was thinking.. Are there any roms out there we can flash with flashfire?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] rob219:
not yet, they'd just be tweaked versions of the stock rom anyway. so pretty much what we have now with root plus what we do to our own device after root like debloat and setting the kernel setting with an app and build prop edits preinstalled. only difference it might have a theme on it from whoever makes the rom. so really nothing any better or worse than we already have right now so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
It's mentioned -- check the FAQ/Help section at the end (and there are notes to check that section if you have troubles with ADB). Glad you figured it out on your own. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] n4noAbyss:
Hi psouza4 when I make a call now I notice that my phone goes to 1x when it is always 4g, also I cannot go on the internet when I am in a call. Do you know what is going on?

I don't have xposed installed, and I ran v15 of your fix/debloat script.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] airmaxx23:
Thanks but I checked the FAQ initially and didn't see anything about moving the SU files to where adb.exe is stored and running root.bat there. I checked again and still can't find anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] n4noAbyss:
Hi, I added the file with the permissions 700, with your code but after reboot, when I connect via USB it still only lets me charge and I have to go into dev settings to get MTP... Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Wildcat2083:
just to make sure did you name it s7mtppersist.sh

and make sure its in the /data/s7startup folder?

you can use root file explorer to double check the permissions you might try 755 as chmod which might work better, when I wrote the little script myself i forgot the last step myself, the reason it jas to be named s7 (whatever).sh is the master script looks for files in that folder named in that format, and also it works when you plug in usb to computer not charger obviously, id try those steps first making sure the permissions match the others in the folder, also depending on how you created the file matters especially if you did it on windows, the way it handles the end of lines can mess things up, so you may also create the file from linux or the phone itself

i really am a fan of root explorer as you can move files check permissions and create files all in the same app, its handy ... id copy and paste directly from the forum as well to advoid any typos

i had xposed and busybox installed as well, dont know if that makes any difference just pointing out possible variances
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
Many people have had this problem (did you search this thread?) -- my common advice to everyone has been to make a backup now that you have root (Titanium Backup, etc.), wipe data, unroot, flash PE1 or latest firmware available, re-root, install ZIPs. That seems to fix most all outstanding issues people have.

My guide doesn't recommend sticking the files in your ADB folder (and I personally wouldn't recommend it either). The actual issue is that the program seems incompatible when running it from any folder on your hard drive where there are spaces in the path name. Such as usernames with spaces. My FAQ mentions this specifically with resolutions:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] FilthyFord:
First off thanks for all you have done for everyone. But i just want to say that with the new XDA App that is out, there is no search option in the threads, it only searched the entire forum (bigger pain in the @$$ than before).

Any1 kno if TWRP will be coming 2 the snapdragon s7's now that we have root n all? Also what about roms n ****? Will this be a possible future now that we've achieved root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] CVertigo1:
False. Safestrap did not allow the S5 to have non-Touchwiz based ROMs. The only way to have non-TW ROMs is an unlocked bootloader, or if someone ports the ROM to use on the factory kernel.

A modified TW ROM can be exponentially better than stock. The No BS ROMs for the S5 were insanely fast, smooth, ran cooler, and had better battery life than stock. Using the modified TW ROMs allowed HD voice and video calling, whereas Cyanogenmod did not.

Root does not allow TWRP, an unlocked bootloader does. We still don't have an unlocked bootloader.

Restock failing- S7 edge AT&T

Hello - a couple days ago my root got stuck on a random bootloop due to probably an xposed installer module and had apps failing to launch -- reset the device and stuck on bootloop.

<ID:0/005> Odin engine v(ID:3.1203)..

<ID:0/005> File analysis..

<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/005> Initialzation..

This is the screen I have been faced with , when trying to flash with the Modified Odin , AP + CP + CSCC respectively.

It repeats and insists on something called a PIT file auth .

Please help, have been phoneless for a couple days now, I am sure there is a fix for this unless I am bricked?...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
Please try the alternate version of Odin linked in the main post. Several AT&T owners have said it works better for them than the PrinceComsy version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] n4noAbyss:
Yeah I read every page of the thread, only 1 other person mentioned that problem, and no comment was given to them.

My phone is working great in every other regard. If it was a simple fix then I'd rather change some value from FALSE to TRUE somewhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
If there was a simple fix someone has found, I'm not aware of it -- but I do know many people have had the issue and verified the issue went away on a fresh root from flashed stock first. Sorry, that's about all the advice I can give you on that issue. I haven't had it myself and while it's a pain to backup, flash twice, root, restore data, etc. over an hour or two, it's likely a small price to pay for stable root. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] n4noAbyss:
I used solid explorer which is able to change permissions and stuff. I had the name right. It ended up being a end of line thing, I had copied the code on windows and put it on my phone, after I edited the file on my phone and removed the line ends and added new ones it started working perfectly. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Wildcat2083:
awesome glad we came to a resolution, further more mtp over reboots woot lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] paolobadajos:
Hey - Update on this --

Fixed it using the newest firmware of G935U - instead of the stock uploaded for G935A -

No root.. but as you said, eng was not intended for everyday use and "downloader beware" guess i will have to wait on a safer root when it's available whenever for G935U firmware

First of all thanks for all your efforts! My S7 Edge VZW is running wonderfully after all your tweak suggestions, using L-Speed and Kernal Aditour.

Especially loving the Dolby and Viper!

So what kind of Antutu scores are everyone getting? i'm at 110153, and when i run it on stock VZ i was getting 91k or so...

Anyways thanks again!

Does flashing the fixes for AT&T disable private mode? Mines not working any more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
No, flashing root does.

Private mode requires secure storage which is not supported correctly with the engineer's boot image. Secure boot, some fingerprint functions, Knox, Samsung Pay, etc. are also affected.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
135-140K AnTuTu, and I would absolutely not use Kernel Aduitor. I've mentioned many times before how that app does not handle our CPU clusters correctly and will degrade your performance. Uninstall and flash my fix or fix+ debloat instead, which accurately fixes the CPU settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] cuezaireekaa:
When rooted, I was getting anywhere between 114k and 130k so you're a bit below normal. But 91k on stock is not right. Maybe you had the battery saver on.

Stock unmodified.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] LeftyGR:
Thanks for your work, man!

If it is true qhat you're saying about not using kernel aduitor, you should remove it from the op...

And i know what you're going to say... somone actually reads here?!?! lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
It's only in the guide as a last resort if the user is unable or unwilling to flash the fix I provided. Don't just skim the guide. :)

Additionally, there's even a disclaimer right after the link where you highlighted in your screen cap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] eristid:
Thanks guys., on it. I've removed it and re-flashing the zips. I read in the instructions not to use KA, but figured i'd try KA. After install I had a 10k Antutu bump, and my mean temps dropped 5c and no more overheating, so i stuck with it. I'l play around see what I get.

Installed nothing all that uncommon other than running xposed for zoom for intagram and greenify.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] chattguy:
I've followed the instructions to a T, and everything was going smoothly, until I noticed wifi wasn't connected yet. I went to check in wifi settings and it said "Authentication error occured." So I read some more, and figured I should probably just start over and flash the factory firmware. So it just got booted back up, I'm on the Welcome screen trying to connect to wifi, and it happens again. Any insight?

Edit: Disregard. I'm just coming off an all-nighter, I forgot I changed my wifi password last week.:mad:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
Sounds like you don't have the correct password to your Wi-Fi. Also, please remember that on every reboot you will have to re-enter your Wi-Fi passwords until you apply my fix or manually fix the secure storage option in build.prop. The rooted engineer boot image does not support secure storage, where your Wi-Fi passwords are trying to save.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] LeftyGR:
I get that, and i do agree. And i originally tried KA before stumbling across your fixes. But i was suggesting if you feel that way to just not suggest it in the op at all. At least kernel toolkit will adjust the big and small cores separately.

I'll drop it. I'm not trying to be critical whatsoever. Just attempting to be useful. Thanks again!

For anyone having performance issues flash the fixes zip then try the app pictured above its worked amazing for me, even after flashing the zip I was living in lag city, I used this app checked all the battery and performance boxes and now my S7 is buttery smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] LeftyGR:
Is it in the play store? I didn't find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Djoec1983:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
The app you're talking about is L Speed and has been mentioned several times already, including in my tweak guide. Most of the options are safe to run, although some will cause noticeable battery degradation so be informed on what you enable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Djoec1983:
After installing make sure you check all the boxes under battery and performance, reboot and let your phone sit for about 20 minutes after that phone has been lag free.

---------- Post added at 11:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 AM ----------

No its not L Speed look at the above picture, I've tried L Speed didn't work for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
Sorry, you're right. I watched a few moments of a tutorial video that had it confused and it's not in the Play market so I assumed. So I found HEBF here:

http://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/hebf-tweaking-battery-saver-optimizer-t3401341

However, I can't recommend it for our phones. First, we don't have a proper init.d, so these settings might not persist on reboot. Second, I simply don't trust random tweak apps that don't tell you the details of what they're doing.

Also side note: you need the sqlite binaries to use all of the L.Speed tweaks. I mention this in my fine-tune performance guide.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Djoec1983:
There's a long thread on xda about the app. And from my personal experience and you can take this for what you will, it's worked wonders for me. Zero lag after using. Just throwing out a suggestion to try to help those that might be suffering from some of the same issues that I was.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
Hmm, you talking about the exact thread I linked? I read through all 155 posts (and am post #156 myself) and most of the options aren't detailed. Only two are (and a few are self-explanatory like zipalign) although the author mentions several times that there are settings between both apps that will conflict. I think it's best that we wait until the author makes it clear what he's doing in his app before we recommend it to other people or else much of what you experience could be placebo or cause problems for other users or other apps.

Also: no lag here on my S7 and I get days of use between charges. There are many ways to optimize our phones and if this app is working for you, that's great, but I'm going to keep it out of my guides until the author gives us more details on what it's doing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Djoec1983:
Trust me not a placebo my phone was running like dirt for days, running hot like it just came out of the oven and nice and laggy. Now it runs cool, smooth and fast. If I didn't bring it up I would be doing people here an injustice as this is why this community exists to begin with. I make no promises that this app won't hurt your device as I'm not the developer of this app I'm just sharing my experience using it. You always take a risk any time you tweak or modify your device, and you take this risk of your own accord. In any case if anyone is interested in looking into what EXACTLY this app does I'm sure other members of the community would be grateful.
