[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] M2490311:
Okay...I chickened out and had it flashed back to stock at Best Buy. The good news is that the phone with root can be reflashed and not brick.

I thought I would share a few thoughts pertaining to the GS7 Edge and would weigh the pros versus the cons. The biggest pro is that root has been achieved. The cons are that there are not many root apps supported yet, obviously, and it can affect your performance without trickster mod and busy box on rails. Those apps and titanium backup as well as greenify are confirmed working. The big issue is that root right now will affect a few things, such as the smart network switch. I'll wrap up this rant by saying that if you are into rooted phones, this is cool, and the processes to flash Wanam and a few others isn't for novices so if you know what you are doing, great, but if you are new to rooting and don't know what to do and what not to do, I'd recommend holding off on root until it has more support which probably shouldn't take long. The phone with root ran great with the kernel set to interactive via trickster, but stock firmware seems to be better at this moment. What I'm saying is that this root is better left to people who know exactly what they are doing. But for novices and intermediate modders, I'd highly suggest waiting until the kinks are all worked out.

Busybox on rails worked perfectly on mine but yeah i see your point
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] M2490311:
All I'm saying really is that I would not recommend doing this if a person is a beginner. It took me a year to learn what to do and what not to do with root, and even for intermediate users, it's not easy right now. Knowing my luck, and update will come out the day after geohot got towel root up and further down, rooted s7s on 6.0 would get what the s4 got on 4.2.2 which was an unlocked bootloader on all variants.

[MENTION=4275765]expertzero1[/MENTION] as easy as that may be... We are still going to stay rooted regardless.

So before we bring

We should try to find a legitimate solution(That's the point of the Forum).

I can tell you I'm not the only one with the problem and as more and more people ask we will have to find a solution.

SO, if Anybody has a legitimate, realistic or helpful answer say it now...:)

Ok so this is kinda weird. I flashed the TAR file and it rebooted my Edge and got stuck at the AT&T book logo. No big deal just reset to factory, but it won't power off so I can get into recovery no matter how long I hold down the power button. It's just stuck at the AT&T boot logo pretty hot with no way to reboot it. Any ideas?

Edit. Yep I'm retarded got it lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] SkyAttacksX:
Heads up for you private folks - private mode doesn't work after root regardless of Knox .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
If you are stuck in recovery, boot loop, or firmware update, press and hold volume down and power for a few seconds. The power button alone is no longer sufficient.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] DetoxVenom:
I tried this without factory reset and it was so bad, boot loops and lag. But after I flashed the engboot on my g935p I did the initial setup and backed out of hands free activation. Then I went to the play store downloaded package Disabler pro, went to setting and activated my phone. Once it was active instead of hitting done I hit the home button, and opened package Disabler pro, found in services and disabled it, after that I flashed the su. I then used flash fire to flash exposed then let it do a reboot on its on. Now I'm rooted have several exposed modules and even lucky patcher for fun, and have 0 lag. I think that I might even be running faster then before! O and make sure if you have adoptable storage to format your ad card and take it out before you factory reset, you can set adoptable storage after you finish fixing the boot loops by disabling dm services and then flashing sure. I'm here to help anyone in need for any of this if they have a g935p. Glad everyone and thanks to the people who made this happen!

Anyone here know where the stock files for the latest update are (if they're available)?

I can't find them anywhere(at least not for the latest update), and since AT&T is the only carrier that hasn't had them released publicly, we can't go back to the stock should something go wrong.

You can install a root uninstaller and get rid of that notification. You just uninstall "security log agent". As for the big round one, that's enhanced LTE. Turn it off and just use the normal LTE. Should get rid of it.

OK thanks. One more question. I though MM had dm-verity. So any changes wouldn't stick. I'm only asking because I want to flash Xposed via Flashfire and don't want to bootloop.

Anyone confirm if you can restart without having to re-enable stuff like security log after you download and install a module for xposed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] stew1411:
Not sure that's been confirmed. Everyone has been making sure to enable all packages before making any system changes, including new xposed modules or even updating existing modules.

You're phone doesn't need to be in download mode or recovery. Enabled USB debugging and make sure the phone is on the home screen unlocked and then try the command.

Some people have reported having to run the SuperSU root twice (again after Xposed) in order for root to stick. Try that step again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TMBNyce:
I followed the steps correctly and my phone hasent acted right since. Lots of lags and force closes. Plus the VOLTE icon and w.e is next to it drive me NUTS lmao. I had to go to best buy just to get my correct firmware reflashed. I can't wait until some of the bugs are worked out to try again though. I'll be patiently waiting. Thanks to the devs for all the hard work as well!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] psouza4:
Sounds like you only did the basic root flash, in fact I'd bet money on it. There's well-documented fixes for pretty much all the issues. Check out my guide for the recommended next steps, for example.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TMBNyce:
You would certainly loose that money lol. I'll check out your guide more in depth later and see if there is a way to remove those icons in there. If so that's at least a step forward. As for the lag and force closes I didn't see anything during my skim through just now that would fix either of those issues but I will double check later when I look into the icons. If your guide however fixes both of those issues.. u the man. If not, thanks for trying.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] psouza4:
It's hard to not sound like a jerk when I say that this thread is really peppered full of people asking about the lag (it's because the engboot image changes the governors and CPU settings). It's a very simple fix. Icons are also a simple fix (new imsservice.apk). Anyway, when you do get around to checking out my guide, let me know how it goes. I put together a universal flashable ZIP today for all carriers using the Qualcomm S7 or S7 Edge and feedback would be nice since I only have the Verizon S7 model.

You don't sound like a jerk bro. I actually appreciate the help and the guide. When I give it a look tonight I'll definitely let you know if it helped solve my issues.

Now if this works, I just need TWRP for this bad boy and I'm all set lol.

I did a lot of research before rooting my GS7 G930A, i used the video tutorial from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3410828 post #14, the only thing different is that i also used the "fast boot" file and i have had zero problems. I gathered info about the kernel tweaks once rooted and changed it to "on demand" only get lag for about the first min or two on reboot. I disabled a few apps with titanium and running smooth now. I had xposed installed at first but Uninstaller it since I'm not needing any modules at the moment (gonna let everything set in good first)

I also used the guide from [MENTION=1599591]psouza4[/MENTION] after root to remove lag and whatnot.

But from the getgo i haven't had the large icons that everyone is talking about.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] griffinj01:
I flashed xposed yesterday and installed a few modules. I have about 90 packages disabled (including security log) and some completely removed after my initial titanium backup. I haven't had any trouble with restarts. I have the G930A on xPF2.

Actually, I haven't run in to any of the problems with the root process I'm seeing posted here frequently. I've been trying to figure why so I can offer some help to others. I'm wondering now if it has to do with some of the packages I disabled as soon as I could get titanium and busybox back on the phone after root....

I don't know about Wanam or flashfire, but to get rid of the extra icon, go to mobile networks and turn off the enhanced LTE switch. That will make the hurricane an voip icons go away. If someone already answered, my badd.

Yes
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] M2490311:
To get rid of the extra icons go to settings>mobile networks> and turn off enhanced LTE. For the lag, install busybox on rails and trickster mod and set the kernel to interactive (in trickster ) busybox on rails, titanium backup, root checker, trickster and greenify all work the way they always have. I didn't get to flashing xposed because it seemed a little over my head. I chickened out and had it flashed back to stock at Best Buy. I just told the guy I bought my device there on the 2 for 1 promo when he asked where I got it. I wasn't about to drive all the way to midtown and hassle with the people at the AT&T service center.

At this rate I'd rather just wait until it's stable for "day to day use", other than having to do all these work arounds lol. I really only wanted root to get rid of the carrier bloat but it's not worth the trouble at this point. I'll check out the guides that the others left here and see if I can't work it out but at this rate I'll most likely stay stock until later on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] psouza4:
The assert was there for safety -- I'm not sure if there's going to be a generic/universal way to prevent someone from shooting themselves in the foot. I'll key off the device model instead of build, since imsservice.apk is friendly with all of the existing builds anyway and the generic script doesn't blindly overwrite any other files.

I appreciate you attaching a log -- as I only have a Verizon phone to test with (and did, with the generic version I uploaded), there are just some things I can't anticipate. Did the patch finish as expected despite the mount error? Did build.prop and others.xml get patched? Did the various /sys files relating to CPU tunables get written to from the startup script? Did the bloat listed in the Edify script get deleted?

Thanks.

That's precisely why I chickened out and flashed back to stock. I'm sure that a working and stable root with easy wanam and other root apps supported isn't far off.

The other kernels need dmverity and the bootloader is unlocked

So it'd have to be /systemless and /bootless root

You already have and still have the engboot kernel

Your phones going to run terribly if you don't finish the root and install the performance script.
