Yes!
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JSW007:
Could someone please give me the correct order to install everything correctly (kernel,twrp, superuser)! Also the painless way to handle the data so it will be mountable and working correctly. Thanks very much in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] gizm0luvsu:
So JSw007 here is the order that i did and all is working

kernel, twrp,

while in twrp the first time,

format data, supersu, then no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip

*** Note do the format, supersu, and the No-verity all in the same session without rebooting then after you are done reboot then go back into the recovery and you should go to the mount and internal storage as well as data will show up instead of being 0
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] glenalm:
Huge problem. I've been rooted for months now using Supersu from this thread. And since I've recently installed a few apps that require root these apps say that I'm not rooted. I even verified that I'm rooted through Root Checker. What the hell is this?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
Because these are bad apps. Chainfire has been warning devs to update their apps and not hard code the path to su.

Contact the author of the apps and tell them to fix them.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JSW007:
What is the (no verity)? And thanks man for taking the time out to answer my questions.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] glenalm:
No offense but that's not the reason why. That doesn't sound correct.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
What do you mean that's not the reason?

Some apps use hard-coded paths to su and these apps fail to detect root.

If these apps follow the guidelines advised by Chainfire there shouldn't be an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] gizm0luvsu:
Ok so in the twrp there is something not right with the mount data. the patch in post #349 of this thread fixes all of that and after applying that zip the data as well as internal storage is now visible in twrp. if you dont apply that patch you can not make a full backup in twrp. with this patch you can.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] glenalm:
My apologies to you ashyx. I was just not paying attention to the reality of what you were saying.

I was told that the way the J7 gained root was not system-mode root. Rather is was through system-less root. I dont uderstand the difference though. And according to the info, its the reason why some apps dont respond to root. Is there a way to get system-mode root to get these apps to respond? Is there a downside to that, btw?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JSW007:
It says to make a back up of boot partition before flashing no verity. Is there a way to make a back up of anything before wiping data? My last question before I go with everything you have suggested to do. Thanks again for your help
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] gizm0luvsu:
Yes before flashing the patch you can back up everything except data. This includes boot. I mean if all else fails you could just odin stock or the kernel back again and that will fix it all, but i did this a few days ago and i had no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JSW007:
Awesome man. Guess I'm going to go for it now. Been waiting for a while to do it. Thanks again for your input. In Odin when flashing which box do I exactly put the zip into. I read somewhere one zip goes in one specific box and the other one also
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] gizm0luvsu:
always ap unless stated otherwise
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
That is precisely the issue. With systemless root if apps use a hard coded path to su they fail.

This is the fault of the app not supersu as Chainfire has many times warned app devs about this.

If you want system root you can use the link below.

You can back up all your apps, settings and data with titanium backup.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JSW007:
I have to have root before u I can back up using TB correct. So basically when first doing everything from stock( root,twrp,kernal, format data) I won't be able to back up anything to be able to restore everything?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
You don't need to have an unencrypted device to root.

Supersu supports encrypted devices.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JSW007:
I'm kinda lost on what u are trying to tell me. I m completely stock and I was going to flash the kernel, twrp, then format data, su, no verity for the first time. Just was asking if I could back up so I don't loose anything
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
Install twrp. Make a full backup with TWRP. Data won't be able to backup.

Install supersu. Reboot to OS. Check you have root, install titanium backup, make a full backup with TB.

Reboot back to twrp and complete the procedure to remove encryption including re-installing supersu.

Reboot back to the OS and restore your TB backup.

there is some issue with the internal storage relocking itself upon reboot, not sure what exactly causes it but you can't even wipe cache and dalvik with twrp with it in that state, but the only way to get it out of that state is to rewipe data. as far as i can tell.

The smallest things matter......

I tried about a dozen methods to get TWRP installed and kept running in to the FRP Lock issue. This involved flashing Samsung "Official Firmware" and then rechecking to see if the "Lock" was released. After about the fifth time I was almost defeated. Then I came across this tutorial that showed to turn on "OEM Unlock' from the developer options section (along with the usual USB Debugging). I then booted back into download mode to flash TWRP and the FRP Lock was off. So, in short, I guess because some of the other methods floating around out there did not mention this it took me a lot longer than it should have. And I may have been mistaken on exactly if this was the solution but, it seemed to me that it was. I would like to thank the OP for the detailed tutorial and the attention to detail. It makes all the difference.

Hello, I'm not a noob but I'm pulling my hair out trying to get TWRP onto my j700t. All of the methods including this one just give me a boot loop or no recovery at all. I have also tried 3 other TWRP versions with similar results. I've tried downloading and flashing through Fire Flash and it just says something went wrong and refuses to flash. The .img method above is just wrong. You can't browse for .img files in stock Recovery. Odin flashes fail and refuse to boot to the OS.

How are other people flashing this????

ODIN 3.12.3, J700t 2015 - 10/2016 stock rom, rooted, se-linux kernal installed. OEM and debug applied of course.

HELP

Does this method work with every SM-J700T phone? I have literally tried for hours doing exactly what you wrote, but no dice. I've rooted phones before and the problem arises when I flash on ODIN and the phone reboots, but it doesnt reboot into Recovery, but instead boots normally. The red text that says SEAndroid is not enforcing or w.e on the top of the splash screen comes out, and the Power + Down Volume + home Download page shows that I have custom firmware, but the phone is not rooted. I've tried factory resetting, wiping cache, and redoing the stock flash and re flashing the custom recovery. Please help
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Metabolic12:
This isn't a root method. The files provided by Messi are tar.md5 (Odin flashable) and the recovery.img (TWRP flash/flashfire). You need to flash the tar.md5 through Odin and make sure that auto reboot, firmware update and factory reset are NOT ticked in options menu. After TWRP flashes and it says success disconnect the cable and pull your battery. Wait a minute or two then boot the phone holding volume up, power and the home button. Once TWRP boots up you need to flash supersu 2.78 or later. After that flash you'll be rooted.

Hi all, I have an issue with settings "Verify apps via USB" being turned on and greyed out. Stock J700T with APK6, Nov. 1, 2016 firmware. I also have not been able to flash TWRP but I will be trying the battery pull upon reboot and the newer twrp file. No mention has been made of whether T-mo has changed anything in security relating to the flash counter not being 0 which is preventing the twrp flash. I do have an older stock rom I could revert to if the newer T-mo versions present a problem. But does doing that totally reset the phone to stock? When I originally rooted this phone with Odin and twrp it was effortless. But as another poster discovered if you somehow mess with USB debugging being turned off you will get a mess. At that time the phone got softbricked and I had to completely revert to stock using Kies because Odin could not find a flashable rom or other file. It could not see anything usable in the SD card. However there are the "Verify apps" and Flash counter issues, or other unknowns.

Something was changed by the reverting to stock APD2 via Kies in that twrp was now not easily flashable like at first.

Another issue that needs clarifying is "OEM Unlock" in settings. Is the proper setting for flashing to have the button in "On " position? And again if anyone knows how to free up the Verify Apps via USB button it would be appreciated. Thanks.
