Do you have the permissive kernel installed? I saw you rooted using the other way so as of now you should not have the permissive kernel. That's pretty important.

If you have the permissive kernel, and the updated twrp (see a few posts back), you can flash xposed from your external sd card.

Honestly, I would never flash something as invasive as xposed with anything but recovery. It affects the framework so deeply that if an app places in the wrong place, you have a potential paperweight. That is why a lot of Rom developers do not offer support if you use xposed.

I personally don't use xposed partly because I have lots of paid root apps I have to accomplish anything I want. I've been doing this awhile and had many devices and bricked a few.

If my answers aren't clear enough, then let me know or ask anyone here to clarify better what you need.

It is a community here. We are all here for the same thing.

Would flashing the permissive kernel require wiping my data?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] yahanna:
I own the J700T but I'm NOT rooted. Someone in another forum said that I can get my phone rooted by flashing TWRP recovery and supersu only. Is this true??

And whats the difference between the twrp v3 image format and the v3 twrp Odin image format?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
The proper procedure is to flash the kernel to BL, then TWRP to AP, then with TWRP opened, flash the supersu zip, and afterwards, you will be rooted with TWRP as recovery.

you will want the odin flashable, as it is what you will be able to use.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] yahanna:
I'm confused. What do you mean by flash the kernel to BL? What's BL?

Then you said twrp to AP? What's AP?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
Odin is a utility used internally at Samsung, and is the preferred way of flashing to a Samsung device. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odin_(firmware_flashing_software)]

Odin has 4 different flashable sections. BL, AP, CP, and CSC.

Here is a guide that goes over basic Odin3 functionality with some images [https://androidmtk.com/flash-samsung-stock-rom-using-odin]
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] yahanna:
But someone at the J700T forum said to just flash TWRP and SuperSU and I should be rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
Using the odin method you do not have to have root first, just put your phone into download mode, then plug it into your pc. The way they were referring to would be using something like flashify. I personally prefer to use odin, as 1, it doesn't require root, and 2, it is better to be well versed with odin just in case you potato something.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
To flash or not to flash? That is what's been on my mind ever since twrp came out. I want to use the root apps again. On previous Samsung phones. I usually flash and root right out of the box. Not this time i guess, especially if there's issues of mounting and nandroid backups within twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] yahanna:
According to you the procedure is:

1) Put phone in download mode.

2) Plug phone into PC.

3) ... Lost at this point....

I read the guide but it doesn't mention any thing about AP or BL.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] !Led*Eyes!:
I own the T1 but the process should remain the same for both. There is a permissive recovery- kernel built into this twrp. So to answer your question, yes it is true. For testing proposes I flashed the stock tar and went back to completely stock Samsung-official binaries. I flashed twrp in odin and booted into recovery then flashed the SuperSU zip. My phone was rooted and there were no other issues to speak of.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
Okay, the standard guide assumes you know a fair bit about flashing. But I will break this down a little bit more for you.

My recommended procedure is as follows (assuming you have a uSD card inserted into your phone):

Step 01. Make sure you have mina kernel, twrp, and the supersu zip downloaded. put the supersu zip into the root of your uSD card.

Step 02. Make sure your phone has OEM unlock as well as USB Debugging enabled (options inside of developer options) [If you don't have dev options enabled, press build number 7 times in about phone]

Step 03. Open up Odin on your PC.

Step 04. Put your phone into Download mode and make sure it is connected to PC, it should show a connected device in odin now.

Step 05. Select BL and navigate to the boot.tar.md5 that you extract out of the mina kernel archive.

Step 06. Press start in odin, when it is done flashing it will reboot your phone. (you can avoid the auto reboot by unchecking in options, but this is up to you, if you choose to do so you can skip to step 8.)

Step 07. Get your phone back into download mode.

Step 08. Uncheck BL, and now click on AP, navigate to the recovery.tar.md5 file from the twrp archive.

Step 09. Press start in odin. When it is done in odin you will now have TWRP as your recovery.

Step 10. Go to recovery, it will load up TWRP if you have done everything correctly so far.

Step 11. Go to Install inside of TWRP, press Select Storage at the bottom, and select Micro SDCard.

Step 12. Select the SuperSU zip, and then swipe right to flash supersu.

Step 13. Reboot your phone, your phone is now rooted, with TWRP as recovery, and you can now begin debloating your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] OriginalShinken1:
No. But if you used the TWRP provided by [MENTION=4929843]messi2050[/MENTION] then you should be good. You have SuperSU and are rooted?

[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] !Led*Eyes!:
You have to use the one I linked in this thread. It is v86 arm sdk23 custom build by wanam. Any other version of xposed that does NOT say v86-arm- sdk23-custom-build-by- wanam will give you the same soft brick you are experiencing. And remember that the first boot could take more than 5 minutes so if it stays at your splash screen just let it do its thing. I wrote a whole thing on this a few pages back just read that and you'll be fine

---------- Post added at 06:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------

@sil3nt pr0digy you guys are over thinking this whole process and making it much more difficult than it actually is..
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
I am not overthinking it at all, I had the entire procedure done shortly after it's release. I was simply breaking it down into the most basic of steps so that it can be easily understood to people who may not be familiar with Odin, it's usage, or how to follow each step specifically.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] !Led*Eyes!:
You have more than a couple of unnecessary steps is all I was saying. All that needs to be done on a completely 100% stock phone to obtain root and Recovery is flash the Odin TWRP then flash SuperSU zip from twrp. Done
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
The only steps I added that you may consider "unnecessary" is flashing the mina kernel first, which really shouldn't be problematic at all, and is even advised in case it fails, I simply recommended doing it first to prevent possible repeat steps.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] !Led*Eyes!:
I guess we will have to agree to disagree.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] yahanna:
Hey Sil3nt Pr0digy..Appreciate the crucial steps in your guide. Very well put together.

But just to skip the kernel part I watered down the steps to just install twrp and supersu as indicated by Led*Eyes. Let me know what you guys think of them....

Step 1... Open Odin on your PC.

Step 2... Put phone into Download mode and connect to PC.

Step 3... In Odin, click on AP and go to 'recovery.tar.md5' from the TWRP archive.

Step 4... Press start in Odin. When done you'll have TWRP recovery.

Step 5... Go to recovery to load TWRP.

Step 6... Go to 'Install' in TWRP. Select 'Storage' at the bottom and select Micro SDCard.

Step 7... Select 'SuperSU zip' and swipe right to flash supersu.

Step 8... Reboot phone. It'll be rooted with TWRP as recovery and you can debloat your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] JayTheKid:
I am currently rooted. So I BL flash the Mina kernel then AP flash TWRP then TWRP the xposed framework (v86 sdk23) from my sd card and I am good to go? Doing any of this won't undo my root so I won't need to have supersu on my sd to flash right, meaning i can skip that? (sorry if I'm being confusing or asking too many questions)
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
pretty much, just make sure to put the supersu zip at the root of your microsd first, and if it fails, try flashing the mina kernel first.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] yahanna:
Understood. Thanks man
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
No problem. Let us know if it works or if you have any issues :3
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] !Led*Eyes!:
The MINA kernel is not pre- rooted. Luckily all you have to do if you choose to flash MINA is put a copy of SuperSU.zip along With your xposed.zip and flash them both in twrp. First superSU then xposed. Make sure you use the xposed version in my post because A LOT of people are flashing the wrong version. Just because it's v86 arm sdk23 doesn't mean it will work. It HAS to be the custom build by wanam. Be patient on the first boot you could be staring at the splash screen for at least 5 minutes .

I actually do, used paco's method. So i use the image format then?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] messi2050:
It won't make a difference both should work
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] kylecorgi:
Thank you. Followed directions and it worked perfectly. I'm guessing the new notification symbol is just informing that WiFi calling is enabled?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Sil3nt Pr0digy:
There will be a few new ones that pop up, including the VoLTE symbol possibly.

Another note to users that may be concerned by another popup you may see is the knox warnings, if you see those, just use a program that uninstalls root level programs or freezes them, and lock up all knox related programs, and if the messages still occur, if necessary I can create a list of the knox related bloat so you can remove them if you have issues locating them all.

Red letters are fine. It is standard when you root.

The Knox issue is easy. If you use titanium backup (I recommend that you do) you can freeze all the Knox apps and bye-bye warning.
