Doea anyone know if this rooted rom prevents updating Samsung apps on the galaxy apps store? Every time I try to update something like the always on display i get an error. The error pops up after the download completes and it says "installing."

Does anyone have a gear s2 working on this? If so I'd be interested.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] lreyes:
no I just got the Gear and it does not work because of root
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] sml2004:
Dang I was to installing additional software and pulled a.-8 error code. Would be bitter sweet never being able to reboot or it would forget it lol.

Not sure if this is what it is on this thread but I hope not. These guys did alot of good work fast.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] lreyes:
I got the Error -8 so i uninstalled the gear app and reinstalled it and it prompted me with something talking about modified firmware/software and that it cannot work.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] sml2004:
Yeah I went back to stock :(

Step 14 isn't working. When I type in "cd su" it says no such file or directory.

And .root/sh is not found

EDIT: Nevermind it worked now, made some boneheaded spelling error and didn't put spaces in certain areas
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] KodeBlue:
Considering doing the same thing. How you like the S7 Edge? Besides the obvious lack of s-pen and its functionality, are there any other differences? Any regrets?

Thanks
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
no regrets at all lol.. .2 smaller.. root is actual root all gear stuff works as its not a sprint debug rom so i have stang 5.0 for verizon currently
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jamice4u:
This ROM will eventually get their too. The phone just came out bro. I really surprised they made as much as they have so quickly.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] TT_Vert:
i may go this same route. I never use the pen anyway. The screen is a tad smaller but what other features does the Note have that the S7 does not?

Dave
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Iris scanner and HDR video. I used the Iris scanner for all my password logins, very useful.

Aside from that nothing else? Both of those I couldn't care less about.

When i type "cd su" on step 14 it says no such file or directory please help soon want to root before taking it back for recall

That would be the last note to have that feature. My Note4 didn't, and I did miss it from my s4. I wish they would bring it back.

[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Cycloneon:
Battery just became absolutely dreadful. 90% to %50 in literally 2 hours. Google Play, Samsung Notes, People Edge(even though it is disabled) hogging up my battery with at least 20%+ battery usage.

Definitely got to go back to stock when I get back home

You've got something going wrong, because that's obviously not normal
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sam_8525:
Stuck on step 14 cd su says no such file or directpry?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
You can start by confirming the directory is there, and if the file is in it
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sam_8525:
And how do i do this
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
First, you'll need to type type "adb shell" and once you're 'in' your device:

Follow those commands.

Obviously, you're going to be doing this from your PC. Not from your device..
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sam_8525:
Of course pc but still same problem persists after i get to cd su it says no such file or directory found
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
Then, it's not there. That's why you get that error. If the steps to push the files aren't working for you, create the directory yourself, exit ADB, and manually push each of those files to that directory.

Sometimes you gotta improvise man.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sam_8525:
You must really hate me right now but how lol you seem to know what your doing and im so new to this so if you wouldn't mind just pointing me in the right direction
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
Create the su directory while you're in the tmp directory by typing "md su"

If it says you permission denied or something, make sure you have superuser permissions. Then do it again.

And to push the files just use the 'adb push file.name /location'

In this case, location is /data/local/tmp/su

If you're curious and motivated to learn more about adb, Google that ****. I didn't know anything about it a month ago. I know Windows, but adb uses Linux commands. I'm happy to help, but it doesn't seem like people realize what a huge resource Google is, when one of Google's most powerful resources is in their hands. Ironic **** lol

The Xposed instructiins are NOT for Sprint devices correct?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
This is there sprint note 7 section. So yes, they are. If you have trouble with it, there are some other methods scattered around this thread. I didn't even try the method in post#2, to be honest. I used Flashfire and a modified Xposed framework. Whatever works for you
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] DSR_1106:
Thanks for the reply. The method in post #2 errors 4 times on pc after pushing framework to device and then reboots it. I then have a red warning that the framework isn't installed and a vibration every 10 seconds until I flash stock tar.

Could you link method that worked for you ? I am very familiar with adb and have tried v85.1 v86 and am having no success.

I even tried the version for my s7 edge and no go

As long they don't update the bootloader and security so you can't install or downgrade to this firmware. It would be pretty high chances it'd be still working after replacement. They will most likely just replace the battery.

When you take your Note 7 in for the recall they give you a brand new phone if they have the newly fixed Note 7's in stock so in turn it is pointless to root it if you intend on taking it to turn in.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Josephigloe:
Im learning to do it for practice so when i get my new N7 its easy peasy..
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
they are taking them back in ANY condition so its actually the BEST time to practice if he must.

I already got a loaner but i gave it back to them with a shattered screen no issues and will be trading this s7e in for the replacement note 7 once they have em.

meaning my original note 7 was shattered, exchanged for anew s7e and taking the s7e to get a replacement note 7 this week. so if he bricks it,they will still take it back and exchange it
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
To check why apps doesn't get downloaded. It can be tracked in log if lucky
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
i thought they fixed that a week or two ago?
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] themisterwilson:
Not that I'm aware of, but I'd like to know how if so.

However, I think it is possible using the other root method. I haven't switched to that yet though, seeing as everything else is working fantastically. I'll give it a go when I get my replacement.
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] branjgsclb:
How did you shatter it so quick? I thought we have Gorilla Glass 5 or whatever it's called. If the people that make Gorilla Duck Tape and Super Glue made the glass I would be willing to bet it would be some type of Lexan glass. That would be nice lol.

i have a dart and it wouldnt start for work in the am and i pulled it out of my pocket to call the dealership and dropped it from maybe 1 foot into the driveway and that was it lol

it had two white shatter holes in top left edge then like 5 cracks all the way across the screen..

Hey guys i'm extremely new to the android os and samsung galaxy family. The last android phone i've had was an htc evo and i loved it i know thats a long time ago. Just was wondering will this root method work on the new replacements here is my info:

Nothing you can do to root that software version right now. Samsung put a revision lock which means you can't downgrade.

Any note 7, battery issues or not, would have that green icon once updated to the latest OTA - there is no way for the phone hardware to check whether the battery is good or not ;)
[Sprint Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] marky310:
Actually, my original note 7 didn't get a green battery icon when I updated to latest firmware. All it did was get notifications about replacing the phone. My replacement got the green battery icon though, after updating to latest firmware. So there is some kind of check, possibly the date it was manufactured and not hardware check as you said.
