Thank you for this info [MENTION=5914102]ethanscooter[/MENTION], I do not care for VOLTE or WC. I just want to block ads and run youtube with the display off. Question, assuming this process will wipe all the data off my phone correct?

WFC and VoLTE might be a bit of a ***** since sprint doesnt offer it and we are using the sprint image the frameworks might just simply not be there.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ethanscooter:
It's fine, it's root. Better than nothing. You can always use a Google voice number for the meantime if you really want to. We can always make a T-Mobile flashable ROM and flash it with FlashFire.

i am stuck at the part where i am pushing adb to the phone, it says cannot stat "sun7" : cannot find directory. help please
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ethanscooter:
You need to make a folder called "sun7". Then extract all the contents of the zip you download into that folder. Wherever ADB is installed that folder needs to be in the same directory. Or if ADB is not in the same location provide the path.

Example: adb.exe push C:\pathtofilehere /directory/guide/tellsyouto/pushfoldercontentsto

Use FlashFire from Play Store to flash the Viper audio package of your choice.

I don't think it can be stressed too much: read the directions thoroughly, then read them again. Follow each step exactly. Once you've read the directions read the rest of the thread, no matter how many pages it runs. It may take awhile to figure out how to fix all the ways you can f' your phone up by not following directions, so you're on your own.

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] conmonks:
So what about the people who depend on that. It's ok for it not to work cause you do not need it. How about not disregarding and lowering the priority of some functionality issues based on your satisfaction of the current state. Hope your enjoying root though!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimmydigital00:
According to the original thread you lose Samsung pay and Android pay with this but Knox is not tripped. This means it will work again if you restore back to stock.

Are you guys having luck with Viper? I installed the zip through FlashFire, set SELinux to Permissive mode and installed the drivers and rebooted.

For those running this leaked Sprint build, are you able to update any of the Samsung apps?

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] douger1957:
They're not using a Sprint ROM. They're using a Sprint userdebug build. Chainfire has been working on root and has run into some serious Samsung roadblocks. He's waiting for a device so that he can really go to work, but his will be an Exgynos device.

If I understand the gist of what you're asking, they've tried much of it here. Rumor has it there's a T-Mobile engineering build out there but no one has been able to put their hands on one. I'm sure that they could use a hand if you have one to offer.

I'm so excited to hear this! Let me know how it all goes. I'm going to try to flash this and root and install Xposed too :)
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] laronerich:
you have to check the links in this forum because it's going to take too long for me to find and post them

It took me about 1hr. but you have to install adb before anything.

1. I booted in recovery did a factory reset.

2. I install the sprint tar file.

3. it takes about 30 minutes to reboot so grab a cup of coffee.

4. after I rebooted. I changed the apn settings made sure I had 4g. u can find this in the settings under connections then access points

5. then after that I made sure I had oem lock and USB debugging on.

6. then connect ur phone and follow the steps from this tutorial step by step. the video is fast so u have to pause during each step. [youtube]UxKmnRof1qQ[/youtube].

7. ur phone should reboot after u get the accept message. and ur all done.

I used titanium backup got rid of a lot of trash. This root method doesn't slow the phone up one bit like it did on the s7 edge. I recommend everyone try this method until the official root for T-Mobile comes out because it's pretty flawless if u don't care about wifi calling and volte

**Update. Xposed is working fine also. GOOD LUCK!
