Got my replacement yesterday. I follow the steps like the OP said. It's now rooted and runs perfectly. Thank you.

Hi, quick question, what is the average battery life experience on this rom?

Jovy - what is the best way to update the rom for future reference? Does it require wiping anything or starting root from scratch?
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] louforgiveno:
Try starting by flashing the official tmo PGC firmware then resume the other steps....may help

I managed to go into download mode while it was stuck on the T-Mobile screen and then from there I rebooted the phone and continued the steps as if nothing had happened! It worked, so I don't know what happened haha

Note 7 v2 Root Sticking

I exchanged my v1 for the v2 yesterday and did not insert my sim card. I brought it home and went through the OP steps. I inserted the sim after step 5. I was able to successfully root my Note 7 and ran Titanium to uninstall some apps but then I lost root after Samsung + updated. I don't know if it was a coincidence but I decided to retry all the steps and I immediately froze the Samsung + update then proceeded to uninstall the bloat I didn't want(including Samsung+) and my phone has maintained root since then. I have rebooted several times to test it and it has been successful every time. ROM is performing well and I have added Adaway and it too is working great.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] SkyPhone:
Success!

Thanks to all the devs. I hope feedback helps. I swapped v1 for v2 and rooted today. Minor problems and ultimate success. Comments below.

The instructions say there will be 8 files after unpacking the first zip on the desktop. There are only 7. It lists 8, but one is an img file (graceqltetmo_N930TUVU1APGC_Stock_Deodexed.img) located in the other zip graceqltetmo_N930TUVU1APGC_Stock_Deodexed.zip (which you are not told to unpack.) That could confuse some people, who might unpack the second zip to get the img file. I think the instructions should just tell you to copy the second zip from wherever you downloaded it to the desktop with the other 7 files you just unpacked from the first zip.

I had trouble getting the USB drivers installed on W7-64. It hung. I had to go to a W7-32 machine. Probably my computer's fault.

I then had trouble on W7-32 getting adb installed (it failed on both W7-32 and 64) I had to use an older adb version v 1.3, which worked fine. There's a link that appears when you run the failed version that sends you to the older versions.

After reboot and adb steps, you are told to skip everything. On mine I was forced to accept some things and take numerous steps. One was to set up and connect to WiFi to verify my old Google account and password after a factory reset. I had to do this after both reboot steps. It was a bit more than I expected when trying to skip everything.

None of this was a big deal, but I thought I'd at least post my experiences.

Shortly after rooting, I restored settings and apps with Samsungbackup. Something caused me to lose root, so I'm going through it again. I know not to restore/update SuperSU, but something slipped through. I'll be more careful this time.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Eudeferrer:
I got my new Note 7 v2 two days ago. I told the guy at Tmo I wanted to set it up myself. When I got home, before I turned it on for the first time, I set it on Download Mode, so that it would not update anything. I sat in front of the computer and ran the instructions here. I am now rooted and without any issues. When I was done, I installed Ovrdrive's modified zip directly over this ROM. For two days I've been running this ROM. It is smooth and nice. Haven't found any issues yet. I have 3minit battery, battery bar, potato clock etc...all working perfectly. Thanks Jovy and OvrDrive for your amazing work even on this locked Bootloader phone. There is no need for me to have TWRP. As a bonus, I got root and did not blow Knox fuse! This is a first for me. So, If I ever want to go back, I can do it without any trace whatsoever. Got the best of both worlds...Root and Knox still intact.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Mean Sixteen:
I am getting ready to start over unless someone has a suggestion.

First a question...did anything other than the gracenote file changing from an .img to a .zip change when the process for rooting was updated to include internal storage?

I ask because I rooted using the new method (with flashfire) on my v2 but only downloaded the grecenote.zip. Everything else I already had on my computer from rooting my v1 with ext sd. Such as the sun7 file etc.

The only thing odd that happened was, i had to download flashfire from the playstore, then after everything went smoothly and I got my phone set up, with root working last night I had to reboot this morning and lost root. Su says the binary needs updated.

I am assuming that there was more changes in the process files than I thought.

Any thoughts before I start completely over again would be appreciated. I want to be perfect this time.

Sorry for wasting thread space on this, but I thought if someone else tried to go into the same situation as me this might help them avoid a problem.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] toucan:
Not sure if it means much, but when I was doing this method (as opposed to the first method - so possibly as you describe), I noticed some different file sizes and such, so I ended up doing the steps in this OP to get root... not using the old files/steps at all.

Just note that if the instructions still say not to touch anything -- I had to go through the setup steps in order to get ADB going (meaning I had to touch things in order to finish). Without USB Debugging enabled I was a no-go had I strictly followed the steps.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] black96ss:
I wonder if anyone is working on a stock IP4 based romantic. I know tekd is working it some but his Roms are way to heavy for my taste. Latest firmware with mods like overdrive would be perfect.

[MENTION=2693834]Mean Sixteen[/MENTION]

1. Odin sprint userdebug again....

2. Push Sun7.zip again to gain root.....

3. Sign in to Google and go to play store disable auto update on SuperSu...3 dot on top right

4. Install flashfire when it boot up....

5. Flash deodexed.zip... wait about 20 minutes

6. While u still connected to adb.... push Sun7.zip file again....

7. Install busybox and make sure v_1.24.2

8. Reboot and root should be sticked.

9. Enjoy

Well flashfire didn't install so I had to get the apk from somewhere. Now flashfire is not seeing the graceqltetmo_N930TUVU1APGC_Stock_Deodexed.zip, but it shows up under "flash firmware package". I googled around and found chainfire's thread someone asking about the samething for a different zip, but nobody answered him.

Any clues as to why that might be??

edit - I found out I had the first release pack files before the new method

edit #2 9:47am - also had to download new "graceqltetmo_N930TUVU1APGC_Stock_Deodexed.zip" and now it shows up in flashfire under flash zip or ota
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] unkellsam:
I lost root, probably because of auto updates. Is there any way to get root back without wiping the OS and reinstalling everything?
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] douger1957:
If you have build API4, no. Root is gone until they can figure out a new method.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] vibrantliker:
Do you know what apps caused you to lose root?
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] unkellsam:
I don't know specifically, but it looks like my S-Health is the latest version, so that would be my prime suspect.
[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Eudeferrer:
You probably lost root because you updated the Superuser app. The OP says NOT to update it because it will break root. Onthe other hand, S-Health is tied to Knox (not root). The latest version of S-Health checks for an intact Knox. Since this ROM has Knox removed, it will not work with the updated version. Once the knox check is done, it will fail to load the app.

[T-Mobile Note 7  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] unkellsam:
If it was updated, it was done automatically without my knowledge. Can I just revert to the previous version to regain root?

Yes it can be flashed from sd card or internal storage it doesnt matter anymore :)

If you already have the original setup and adb already working you just got to change the sun7 folder and your all set since most of the changes were from there and not the other files they are untouched from the adb rootkit and odin pack.

One thing i haven't tried is while being on the latest updated stock deodexed rom or while being rooted from any rom is flashing the rom zip over again with FlashFire to see if it doesn't break root. If it works? That would mean you will not have to follow most of the steps again until a new firmware update arrives.
