Thank you guys for the clarification for those who don't know...
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bajasur:
Thanks for popping in and clarifying.

I have a question, is there any way to get a blacklisted image file onto an unrooted Samsung device outside of Odin or Heimdall?

I need to get a userdebug kernel/recovery on my device but I'm getting a fuse 2 > Binary 1 error in download mode.

Thanks for any help
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] kcarden:
Anti rollback measures (courtesy of Samsung) uses a hardware Fuse and it's reading a different value than what the file is providing. Has there been an update?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bajasur:
Yep, we got an OTA yesterday with this rollback protection in it. We can no longer Odin the userdebug leak which gave us root
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ryanbg:
If you read [MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION] write-up on the Samdunk eMMC backdoor, you'll see he credits me for the bootloader research, nothing with the eMMC. There would be no unlock without him. I figured out how the unlock mechanism worked in aboot and how to 'clone' a developer device, but that would have been worthless without his research and exploitation of the CID backdoor. The difficulty of what he did is well beyond my abilities. The code is his and I only modified it to support other devices. He's an incredibly bright individual and I was lucky to cross paths with him.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elementalx:
Yessir. Exactly what I did.

Updated both of ours and then read xda the next day when I had more time available just to read that we shouldn't have done so. :(
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Chr0nicDreamz:
Ya, had I noticed that sooner, I would've just rooted from the start, but it was immediate. Really pissed me off. After this fiasco, I'm moving on from Sammy. Might look into something more developer friendly.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
lol no offense but many say this and dont move on.. im guilty as well but when i got my s7, s7e and note 7 as well as my s6e they were all rootable prior to purchase so its not like we didnt iitially have root, its their stupid update they basically forced that screwed us..

we need another leak lol
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Chr0nicDreamz:
We do. However it wouldn't be the first time I left an mfr for screwing the user. I stopped using HTC devices years ago because of their bs.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ArioK13:
I apologize since this is off topic but does anyone know how to change the mixerpath file to make the bluetooth, speaker louder for the note 7? I forgot how to do it and noticed a lot going on now in the file since the note 4 mixerpath file. Its been wayyyy wayyy to long since I did it and I usually would replace the file I made up. Thanks in advance and before I get bit, I did searched but no avail.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] nlarge:
Lady at tmo updated my exchange before i had a chance to touch it... hope something gets figured for those of us that got forced out of being able to root
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] louforgiveno:
As I stated before ,, ask/tell them NOT to power on your device if you care at all about having root. Invest in yourself, watch them like a hawk and SPEAK UP before it's too late!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] black96ss:
Any have good news about further root on the update
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] digitalart:
Looks like SD note 7 development is dead. Battery fiasco and locked BL is worst case scenario. Future look bleak =(
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] stealthee:
Trade it in and move along Eeyore.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bajasur:
Yep. This device is dead. I don't want any of you having false hope.

If you are looking to customize your device, get a refund and never buy a Samsung device again until they make a GPE, Nexus or Developer Edition
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] digitalart:
Fortunately I didn't have chance to buy one yet. Still on my good old NOTE3. Still don't know what to do though
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elementalx:
Great. Well screw Samsung and their crap. Locking the bootloader and such. Oh well. Looks like I'm stuck with this for six months.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] DVS_Sokar:
On the new Update. If you enable Developer Options. There is now a "oem unlock" option in the developer settings. Does this help? From what I am reading it's just an additional layer of Android security and doesn't play a role in actually unlocking the Samsung OEM bootloader.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] -BoneZ-:
That was there before the update. That's just a setting that does nothing without the proper security credentials to unlock the bootloader. And we don't have those, and probably never will.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] vibrantliker:
I'm getting a 2nd replacement under the buyer's remorse program since my recall replacement wasn't in the color I originally chose (Silver). Cust. care said 2 x I could do it this way. I'll make sure to go right into download mode and root this time. I was my own guinea pig with the update to see if I could still root which as we all know you can't
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ice5192:
I threatened legal action my new phone is enroute right now
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] calming:
Ha... What? How?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] -BoneZ-:
Gonna go ahead and ask this, just so that everyone who continues to get new Note 7's can be aware:

Is anyone working on rooting the latest update (API4)?

I refuse to believe this device is completely dead since every other Note before has some form of root and customization.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Addiso:
New batch already comes shipped with API4, sadly.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] twe90kid:
I picked mine up 2 days ago, was able to root both of them.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
Not true, some do, some don't.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] calming:
I really hope not
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Addiso:
I picked mine up today and it was on the new firmware already from boot. Told the guy not to touch the box, booting up and didn't even bother with software update coming in since it was already on it.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] twe90kid:
guess i got lucky.. return it.. tmobile accepting returns on all note 7 regardless of v1 or v2.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] calming:
I was going to try this. Tmo customer rep had a new device overnighted to my local store for today. If it was the API4 preloaded version, I was going to demand an APGC one from their inventory. It arrived today and I can't exchange mine for it because of this nonsense. No exchanges, no sales unless it is another device other than a Note 7.

I could kick myself for not making time to take it into a store on Saturday or Sunday morning before the announcement happened! [emoji35] [emoji21] [emoji37] [emoji30] [emoji35]

How to root my note7

I'm in a hurry to root my note7, please help. Time is running out.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bajasur:
They got root because of leaked sprint firmware, let's hope some tmobile leaks come next
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] twe90kid:
hope they release something in the next 2-3 days. this way i can place my order before 8/28 promo period for the phone.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] omf05:

[MENTION=1113488]JUSMEJOSE[/MENTION] claimes to have the engboot for T-Mobile..........if that is true could be sooner than later....fingers crossed
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Root-Maniac:
I wonder if anybody sent him a pm?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] omf05:
Worst case we can odin sprint firmware if its anything like the S7.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jovy23:
He hasn't been around for three days. I'm guessing the people at Samsung found out and gave him a one way ticket to Suplex City.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] louforgiveno:
I did, no response.....
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bajasur:
Where have you seen that this had worked?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] omf05:
People have flash from verizon to T-mobile firmware. As long as it was an official Firmware they could flash it through Odin. People have flash the U firmware as well to branded model s7/s7 edge.

I have not personally tried this on my s7 edge because we were able to get root.

EDIT**

Could be wrong about verizon part I'm trying to find a link to the thread I saw for confirmation.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jaxenroth:
[MENTION=4454815]jovy23[/MENTION], your likely right. I remember last summer some guy came on XDA and said he had an engineering BL I scooped it up from him and it worked. No Knox tripped and had root w/ TWRP. He was only around for 2 weeks. I just looked him up and his account is disabled. Joined June 15 and closed July 15. I guess Sammy got ahold of him. Hopefully someone grabbed the eng BL from him before he got pulled.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jovy23:
I'm guessing this is what happened. His last post was three days ago and it mentioned of him having the engineering firmwares for a couple of different Note 7 device variants.

Someone who must of been working for Samsung or knows somebody working at Samsung got him reported or something must of happened. Hopefully he is just taking a break, let's hope that break isn't forever.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] louforgiveno:
His "activity" shows he was logged on yesterday.....hopefully he has the files and it's not b.s

Always looks bad when someone says "I have this and that" then disappears off the map
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tiger62651:
I doubt Sammy got him. If that's the case then the sprint guy is in same pot but his is out and about. So if he truely had it he would of spread it but he didn't. To me sounding like boy who cried wolf. Many asked and not one got it yet. But not speculating since life could be reason he hadn't sent it out yet who knows.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jovy23:
Hopefully it was him and not somebody else who logged in. [emoji43]

Even if root gets released or not or if any progress doesn't happen im enjoying this phone even without root and i really don't think this phone needs it in my opinion. I'm loving this device as it is right out of the box.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] douger1957:
That's the same mentality that will flash an OTA then wonder why the exploit for root is closed. Some people refuse to let things work themselves out and they're often the same people that won't follow directions then post cryptic pleas for help.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] The Apostle:
question

Hello - I am guessing a lot of you had the Note 5 and or the s7/s7e. I currently have the s7e and it's a great device, but the engineering root method is buggy. My phone seriously feels like it's going to catch fire even during simple tasks. I have run all of the "fixes", as well as adjusted a bunch of settings via sEFIX, L Speed and Kernel Auditor.

My question is, since no one really knows if the N7 will ever get an unlocked Bootloader, is the N5 still viable enough to have for the next 12 months? Meaning is it your opinion that development will still continue for the N5 now that bigger and better things are out? I know jovy is over there with a great ROM and I have seen some other good development just looking through and reading.

I realize this is a strange question in a N7 forum but wanted to ask since I am sure a lot of you had or still have the other device.

Thanks and I really appreciate any feedback. Even if it's me putting on the flame suit.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] louforgiveno:
I'm sure it will......the Note 3 still has major development going...I came from Note 4 and even that community has major development.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Rx8Driver:
I think the N5 will see continued development over the next 12 months...a few rom devs that support multi devices like TEKHD and Dr.Ketan will likely continue to support and update roms for slightly older devices...i think they both still push the parts of the updates that will work to Note 4's as it is now...so, i personally feel the N5 (tho, admittedly development has already been at a crawl in many ways for T variants, and will likely slow further in some respects) will definitely stay relevant and continue to receive updates, even from Samsung....they may not be "GOOD" updates, but.............

Not to mention the guys who've gotten cm13 ported!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jaxenroth:
I'm likely jumping back to the note 5. Just picked up a 6p for my AOSP fix. I could care less for water proofing, SD is nice but 32gb has never let me down. I can see how you can live w/o root for this device, but bottom line is like owing a Ferrari, and only allowed to drive 65mph. I want to push it to the limit, I wanna ride it hard and put away wet. Because at the end of the day it's mine and I can do whatever I want with it. And if something breaks it's all on me. I'm willing to accept that.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] DionWhite33:

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] twe90kid:
i don't necessarily need to flash roms. I just want to be able to restore my stuff via titanium backup. The chat program that I use need TB to restore chat app and messages and SQLite to clear some of the settings before I can login without loosing any data. With root it's sufficient enough for me to run tasker, viper4android, adblock, etc.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ethanscooter:
Can't we just use flashfire to flash touchwiz based ROMs?

That's a sprint note 7 what are you hinting at?

Root for the TMO note 7?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] The Apostle:
If this happens and the N7 gets root, would it be similar to what the s7/s7e currently has with the engineering boot?
