[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mhill1986:
I got the same error. Ended up using Wanam's modified xposed and fladhing it with Flashfire.

On the xposed download page, what version do I download and under what folder? Choices are ARM, ARM64, x86.

EDIT: scratch that, "mhill1986" thanks I will try that!

After flashing the boot time is extremely long again, As it was on initial root
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
Not a huge deal, but anyone know where the AOD option went where you could pick your own image? It would show time above and notifications below. Just like the one where you can write text, but an image.

edit: nevermind, my AOD won't update. Anyone else having this issue?

If anyone was able to update AOD, would you mind posting the update? or the updated APK? Every other Samsung app updated fine, but this one fails every single time with : ERROR installation failed. Try later. (-7)

Worked for me but phone is sluggish now. Do you know how to uninstall this modded framework?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jlechner:
To my knowledge, you must reflash the odin package. Basically, start over.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
I flashed it, and can't even find it lol

Went through, didn't see any errors or anything odd. It just isn't there. I must have missed something somewhere :eek:

Thanks KookCat7. You are awesome.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mhill1986:
I'm sorry it didn't work for you. Mine is running just fine, but who knows. I'm not positive about this, so use some caution, but there is an xposed uninstaller zip from Wanam on this download page:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=37508

If it does what the file says, xposed should uninstall.

To anyone who ODINed back to unrooted stock, can you confirm Samsung Pay's willingness to operate normally?

[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tikerz:
How's the performance? The S7/S7 Edge root with the engineering kernel was terribly laggy and unusable for me even after the workarounds.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] shmallow:
Here's my AnTuTu without root. Looks like it's nearly the same as the rooted build. I'm going to go for it as soon as i can get my hands on a Windows PC, unless someone else has tried using Heimdall.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ALooneyGuy:
I'm getting the same error for AOD as well as Clock, S Health, Samsung Pay and PaymentFramework US QC. I know the last 2 won't work anyway, but wanted to be thorough.

How would I use and install adb
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] fogame:
After you have it installed you would need to open up a command line of you are on windows. Once that has been done you would run the commands in the OP. It should work just fine.

I also am getting the "group 200 : no such file or directory" when attempting to install Xposed...I've followed the steps, including grabbing the correct script but just simply not working for me. :(

Were you able to get this to work correctly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
Awesome! Everything is working great already. I wouldn't know it wasn't stock as far as daily use goes if it wasn't for the debugger stuff going on when rebooting lol
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] kgbedge:
that was because this ENGINEERING BOOT messes up the CPU governor, you will see a ton of LAG until you fix it manually.

installing Busybox using the Busybox app. and TricksterMod app to set the CPU governor to “interactive”. fix any lag issue.

Help! The phone says it's rooted from samsung + on boot up, I have pushed the .img and .apk to the phone in adb but when im in the shell and under su and type ./root.sh, it says it cannot execute: Permission Denied. What am I doing wrong?

The actual cmd prompt line is: ./root.sh: can't execute: Permission denied

Never mind I got it figured out.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tikerz:
But how is it on this one???
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] kgbedge:
havent root it. soon I get back home and have access to my pc. I will get it done.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] fsunoles101:
No lag, no overheating. No issues what so ever with the phone after root. It is as smooth as it was when it was unboxed.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tikerz:

After flashing ODIN .... it remains at Sprint LTE PLUS boot screen for a long time....directions said to be patient

Tried booting into recovery to wipe data/factory & wipe cache but still stays at LTE PLUS boot screen

well after 1hr of sitting on LTE Plus screen it switched to Installing applications........Very Very Long boot time
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dsnydd63:
My phone took about 15 minutes on the LTE PLUS screen before it actually started when they said be patient they ment it.

I'm still very new at this i'm unsure why it would take quite that long...

[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
It's great! My son has my s7 that I rooted and I went through all the fixes and had it running great. This however, I didn't have to fix anything. It is a little wacky in-between that initial boot after installing the firmware and rooting it, maybe because i restored my Google account and apps and Samsung and stupid Sprint putting their own garbage on here. I found some patience and left it alone, rooted it when everything was finished. After that, sunshine and happiness man :good:

---------- Post added at 10:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 PM ----------

OP says why in the 1st post ;)

"Not first boot optimized...deodexed"

Whereas stock ROM is odexed
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] freeza:
Here's a modified build.prop:

please test and see if AOD downloads. This should also remove the debugging gibberish from shutdown.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzlKnE8DuyBMQXMxZS1Bbl9od1k/view?usp=sharing

I'd suggest using root explorer or something like it so it's easier to copy over.

Perms are rw-r--r--

Reboot when done.

Report back.

Thanks!
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mariano3113:
Yeah mine sat at LTE PLUS boot screen for 62minutes.... I read that it was a long process just didn't expect it to be that long
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mrcrptguy:
The buildprop worked for the shutdown text being displayed, not sure on the other stuff
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ALooneyGuy:
No luck here. Couldn't update any of the apps I was unable to update before, and now there is also an update for Samsung Notes that I can't install either. Any other thoughts?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tikerz:
Sounds like this userdebug kernel performs better than the S7/S7 Edge engineering kernel.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] freeza:
Hmmm. I could try modifying it with pgc version. Maybe they won't update because PH3 isn't official yet
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ALooneyGuy:
I'd be more than happy to try it out.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] inigo1200:

Wow that is a great score. I never got more than 97700 stock. After I rooted it I get 97700 or your score about 140000 just randomly, even with nothing in background. I think AnTuTu is buggy and outdated.

You have to set the permission of the root script by chmod 0777 aka rwxrwxrwx

---------- Post added at 06:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 AM ----------

Yeah, after changing the script to 0.2000 from chowns 0.200. I didnt get those notices. But even without changing it and getring those notices, xposed still installs fine and works.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ALooneyGuy:
Yeah, didn't work for me either. Seems none of the Samsung apps will update.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] coton:
I entered the command "adb shell chmod 0777 /data/local/tmp/su/ " and then the other commands in the instructions, but the last step would not give me permission.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] sunmybun:
Its "adb shell chmod 0777 /data/local/tmp/su/* "

You forgot the star. That star set permissions for all the files in that su folder

[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] hamza_theclue:
So I followed the instructions completely but the Super Su binary's are not updating no matter what I try, please help.

[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] fgr:
@KodeBlue

This: adb push sun7/data/local/tmp/su

Should be this: adb push sun7 /data/local/tmp/su

See the diference?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] BlackMeat420:
When you type in the push command you have to have a space between the sun7 and the /data so it will look like this adb push sun7 /data/local/tmp/su instead of adb push sun7/data/local/tmp/su

So I rooted successfully yesterday, when I woke up this morning and took my phone off the charger my phone won't boot, I'm getting Power reset or unknown upload mode error. When I try to turn the device on it just keeps going to this screen. Is there a stock firmware and how would I revert back?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] BlackMeat420:
I tried the adb method and it didn't work, I got the flashfire method to work :D, After about a day it stopped lagging so hard but it does glitch a little bit sometimes hear and there. Make sure you use the device management setting to clean your ram otherwise it will lagg really bad.

---------- Post added at 07:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------

Mine did that also I believe it is supposed to do that :D cuz i have root, also my binary's won't update either but i can still use all the root apps so i don't think it really matters.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] brownchm:
That's because the command is to change the permissions to read write and execute or read which is worth 1 + write which is worth 2 + execute which is worth 4 or 7. So that is how it should work.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] hamza_theclue:
yeah but i wasent able to use any root apps, but i reflashed this a couple of times and now it works so thats good.
