Yes I did,

Sir with all my respect,

I have followed this thread just yesterday and I read every single post...

But when you have no clue what's being said since you are not experiencing it nor seeing screenshots...

It's difficult to mark which post is important among 200+ posts...

I have just done the flashing of TWRP and installing of SuperSU...

I hope the OP could actually add these points, so others wouldn't be confused and ask questions like mine...

1. I can't mount InternalStorage nor /data... (still no answer)

2. Security notice removal through system/app... (thank you for guiding me, Post #144)

3. Is it normal for root apps to crash? (no answer)

That's all what I have...

I will try installing Xposed to test SuperSU More...
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Brava27:
This thread is for only twrp. Root isn't official. You have to wait for the real thing to come out. It's not out yet.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SeraphSephiroth:
1) Due to Samsungs encryption you cannot mount data partition in TWRP without formatting first (using twrp)

2) Remove securitylogagent under system/app

3) Depends what app. Might not be compatible with note 7. Try fixing permissions

Xposed by Wanam (x64 version) works and modules work okay

Root is now official thanks to [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] (No cfar as yet but patching works fine)
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Dante63:
as soon I format data using TWRP, I can mount it, after I install SuperSU and dm-verity and force encryption disabler...Reboot...

Device turns on... I reboot back into recovery...

/data becomes unmountable...?

Am I doing something wrong?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] 2crueal4u:
Can someone be so kind and make a YouTube video on how to make it work? I do all things but when reboot my phone says something like encryption not went through and all I can do is to make it reboot again and the same thing happens

Guys,

I have TWRP and dm-variety installed earlier. Do I need to wipe my device again for SuperSU ?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] johar.sanjeev:
No
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
I tried flashing SuperSU but it didn't work.

The process went in smoothly but in the end it said failed to mount /data

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 AM ----------

I tried it again, same thing. Only now the device is stuck on boot-loop :(

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

Okay, an update.

I did the following:

- Reboot into TWRP - Success

- WIPE Full Device - Success

- Install SuperSU using TWRP - Success

- Install dm-variety using TWRP - Success

- Reboot System - STUCK ON BOOT-LOOP

Please advise? I'm kinda panicking ..
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] johar.sanjeev:
Try this

To change on to supers

1.flash stock kernel

https://mega.nz/#!BUE2jQTT!SDz2hkg5O...o_LJAF16lukyjI

2.flash supersu 2.77

Done

Credit to dr.ketan
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
Why would I need to flash stock kernel?

I did the entire thing again, but only this time without flashing SuperSU 2.77 and my device is booting....

Help?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] johar.sanjeev:

[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
I didn't say I didn't want to, I just want to know what difference it would make if I flash stock kernel.

If I wipe my device and return it back to factory settings it should work by principle, am I right?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
factory resetting doesn't restore original stock kernel
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] dr.ketan:
Factory Resetting - word incorrect for root users.

When you have root access/custom stuff installed your device is no more factory set. Factory reset (wiping data)erase data partition and can not restore your system condition to factory image. System changes can not be change by wiping data. It can be restore if you flash 'Restoring stuff' OR Flash stock ROM.

If you have custom device, it won't work with stock kernel. Either you need to flash SuperSu/dm Verifier fix/other any process that do it same (by patching kernel)

Flashing stock kernel in between, removes all patch if any by any tool. Though after flashing stock kernel, device won't boot unless you flash SuperSu
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
Okay boss bare with me because I'm not as pro as you guys,

So now before doing anything I need to flash stock kernel am I right?

Then do the rest like I did earlier?

If yes, why didn't the normal method work in the first place?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
if your on hydra rom or were rooted before using superuser then your kernels already been modified which means its now incompatible
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
I didn't use any rom other than the Stock Rom, I only installed TWRP and dm-variety. I didn't modify any other thing as well.

I tried installed SuperSU but device was stuck at Boot-loop.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
cant flash both either one or the other, restore stock kernel and then flash supersu
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
Really? But it's mentioned in step #10 that I need to flash SuperSU then dm-variety, did I get that wrong?

Maybe that's what's triggering it?

Stock Kernel for the N930FD is for Vietnam Region, would that make any difference since I'm in Dubai, UAE?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
The instructions for step 10 is a choice between 3 options, no kernels are the same doesn't matter
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
Alright, so I'm the one who understood things wrong.

Okay now to get my device running again I'd need the following:

- Stock Kernel (Vietnamese Version)

- OEM Unlock/Developer Mode/USB Debugging

- Installing TWRP using Odin

- Wiping DEVICE completely

- Flashing SuperSU without dm-variety

- Reboot

Am I right?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
yes, i believe dr.ketan posted a flashable kernel either on this thread or the hydra one
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
I'm currently downloading this one

http://samfirm.net/threads/official...fd-dual-sim-n930fxxu1bph6-xxv-19-08-2016.102/

Is it okay?

P.S: I appreciate your support.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] dr.ketan:
Step 1 - Flash stock kernel - Here you require odin flashable kernel - I strongly recommend to avoid odin as much poossible

better do this

Continue with your step two and flash stock kernel with TWRP just before SuperSu
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] dr.ketan:
In that case you need not to flash stock kernel.

- Flash full ROM

- OEM unlock

- Flash TWRP

- Flash SuperSu, that's it

If you already have TWRP then you can wait till i finish uploading ROM. Here you need simply a flashing ROM with TWRP that's it.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
since you already have twrp you may just want to make it easy on yourself and format data, reboot to recovery, flash stock kernel, flash supersu, reboot system
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
Okay guys I'm bit confused now,

Should I go for FULL ROM?

Or just flash that 17 MB zip file using TWRP?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seraphyz:
you can do either or, flashing just the kernel and supersu is just easier
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SeraphSephiroth:
No. Samsung force encrypts every reboot. Not something you can fix at present.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION]

I flashed your 13 MB file then SuperSU using TWRP. That should be the right procedure am I right?

I did it and the device is booting, but it's stuck at "Galaxy Note7" Screen for about 7 minutes now, is that normal?

Once again, I appreciate your continuous support.

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 PM ----------

It's been almost 30 minutes and device is not booting up. Went from "Samsung Galaxy Note7" Screen to "Samsung" Screen after booting re-booting couple of times, is this normal?

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------

Here's a pic of what's going on.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Brava27:
If booting takes more than 2 minutes and you're not flashing a ROM then it didn't work. Start over. Recovery or root takes less than 2 minutes.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
I did start over 2 times already.

- Wiping full data

- Flashing Dr.Ketan's 13MB Stock Kernel

- Flashing SuperSU

- Then rebooting, but booting is stuck at Samsung.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Brava27:
Then something is wrong. Can't say what.

Then copy supersu.zip to otg

Then flash?

[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Brava27:
I guess we all must realize that SD card is very important because data/internal storage is not cooperating at the moment. So we must flash from ext storage/SD card.

For me I gave up, no idea what doing wrong I kept getting the encryption error. Made sure not to enable private folder a initial setup, set OEM unlock and USB debugging. Followed steps then at reboot goes to encryption message.

Only way I can restore was smart switch as Odin would always fail flashing stock.

Okay will if your having issues then this is still WIP..still its progress which is great.

I might give it a go without using hydra ROM method and just use stock.

Hi all,

I just want to dedicate a post to thank [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] for his support via PM.

I was able to get my phone back to life after being close to bricking it. Dr.Ketan was very informative and supportive through many PMs, guided me to the right procedure and got me out of my trouble.

I cannot thank him enough for his support. I also want to thank everyone who contributed in making a successful Root for Note7

I am officially rooted :)

Peace!

It's the 2nd day after rooting... Some root apps are working GREAT... However, I am not sure why the following issues are occurring (they are marshmallow 6.0.1 compatible coming from Note 4):

1. Some root apps are not able to gain root access...

2. Few root apps freezes the phone after being grant root permission and the only way out is power + home + vol down...

3. Xposed keeps clearing dalvik cache at every reboot...

Anyone else having same issues...? Are these issues related to the SuperSU root method...? Could it be the Note 7 firmware...?

Highly appreciated if anyone could tell me about these issues...
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JazonX:
Within hours, My phone got into a continuous bootloop.

1. Installed TWRP, Flashed SuperSu.

2. Rebooted, All works fine.

3. Installed Xposed, Device got laggy, and App optimization happens every boot.

4. Restored Titanium Backup, Samsung Keyboard Backup was not restored, everything else was ok.

5. Cleared Samsung Keyboard Data, as backup was not restored.

6. Next Reboot, Device got stuck in Optimizing apps, then rebooted on it's own around 181 out of 290 (Apps).

7. Again same, Rebooted on it's own before reaching desktop, but different number - It was 200+ something.

8. Flashed Stock BPH6 again from scratch, setup went fine, received BPH7 OTA, and rebooted to install it.

9. Reboot, Come's to Samsung logo (The blinking animation) and Reboots again.

10. Can Reflash Stock Rom, Wipe data/Cache, Issue remains same. Reboots continuously.

Managed to power down the device, Gonna take it to Samsung service today. Can't figure out what went wrong where.

[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
For some reason I think everyone should've followed the method that I followed based on [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] 's guidance.

- I wiped my entire data/system/cache using TWRP, so my device was left with no OS at all to run and boot.

- Since I had TWRP running so my device had a chance to come back to life, the only thing needed was to install a working compatible ROM.

- Dr.Ketan had developed a zip file that installs through TWRP and it is pre-rooted with SuperSU.

- I downloaded a 1.9 GB file, copied it to SD card, and flashed it using TWRP

- 15 minutes later the device was up-running with no issues

I still am unable to find out how to install Xposed and Wanam Xposed, can someone guide me?
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] umijani010:

1. Flash twrp

2. Flash stock kernel

3. Flash superSU v2.77

4. Reboot... right?

Do we still need to flash dm-verity?

[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
You should be able to Wipe everything using TWRP, process goes as follows:

- TWRP, WIPE (Format), Types "Yes" and format starts.

- Reboot - Recovery (to take you back to TWRP)

- Install the 1.9 GB ROM using TWRP [install]

- Finish up and reboot

Done it., Official firmware, same CSC from Samfirm, and Flashing goes without a fail. Then reboots at the optimizing apps screen. Stays in bootloop.

Download and Recovery Mode both are accessible, But Wipe Cache, Factory Reset, Nothing works.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
Try my method,

- Download Dr.Ketan's ROM (1.9 GB zip File)

- Reboot into TWRP

- WIPE - Format "yes"

- Reboot into TWRP

- WIPE - Advanced Wipe - Select (System/Data/Cache/Devlik) --- NOTE: THIS WILL ERASE YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM

- Reboot into TWRP

- Send the 1.9 GB zip ROM from your PC to your Device SD Card using MTP

- Flash the 1.9 GB zip ROM using TWRP - [Install] Button

- Sit back and enjoy

This should solve it...
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JazonX:
Thanks Mate, When you were bricked, Did you suffer from the same issue as I did (Bootlooping at optimizing apps screen) ?

Or your device was just stuck on bootlogo, no bootloops ?

I was actually reading the thread backwards to find out what happened to you.
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Rafik Jabbour:
My phone was doing all sorts of crazy things, because I had flashed dm-verity and SuperSU at the same time. So the Kernel went crazy I guess. Boot loops, stuck on one screen for 30+ minutes...

I am an impatient individual and I kept pressing stuff quickly in TWRP (Which is something you shouldn't do at all!!!) and ended up wiping my OS... But it was for my benefit.
[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] guided me to do what I told you to do and there you go, my phone works like charm!
[Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Dante63:
