I tried with supersu me. It would always reboot before anything could happen. And I tried with the replace kingroot with supersu file where you extract the mrw file and use terminal emulator but that one just fails. Then it reboots. The reboot ts me before I can do anything.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
I would root with the earliest version of Kingroot that you can then try and convert again.

Have you also tried Kingoroot?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] Theddrmasta:
I haven't tried kingoroot yet. I really don't get a lot of chances to play around with it because something with the eng bootloader messes with the wifi making it impossible to use. So I get stuck on mobile data until I go back to the stock firmware. And I don't get a ton of time to play around at home either, but I'll give both of those a try later if I can. Any suggestions on the earlier kingroot? I wouldn't know where to begin.

Have you tried towelroot?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
A bit behind the times. That stopped working back in early kitkat days.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] Theddrmasta:
Well kingoroot doesn't work. A couple of the older kingroot versions would work but restart. No matter what I always get stuck by the rebooting.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
Rebooting is probably a kernel panic. Possibly caused by knox.

If you can disable everything Knox as soon as you root it may prevent the reboot.

I have attempted it a couple times. Seems like the damn thing knows when I'm on the right track and reboots even faster. Next time I get a chance I'll pursue that idea.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] Theddrmasta:
Well I have managed to keep root for a small amount of time a couple times. Long enough to get supersu me to replace kingroot. But after binaries it wants a reboot and the reboot takes away the root.

Recently, I've heard that some of these phones are automatically updating to a build number like, "S320VLUDU3AQF2"

No idea how this will affect rooting, but i'd probably keep the device offline if possible, or use a no root firewall

What exact version of kingroot are you using
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] equitube:
Its likely that you never had full root at all. I believe the bootloader is locked in this model. If so it can't be rooted. Kingroot may indicate root, but as you've seen, you no longer have it.

Yet another reason not to waste your time using Kimg(o) root. It causes far more problems than it solves.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
The bootloader is locked but we're using an eng boot, which bypasses root restrictions.

Any methods known for the SM-S327VL J3 model?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] equitube:
This is the phone I'm currently working on. I have managed to get a working web browser up (click home button 3 times rapidly to open Talkback, draw an L on the screen. This will open a hidden menu, scroll down and choose "talkback setings", from the next menu choose "help and support" this will open a web browser.

Another method uses youtube settings to open a file browser which can access your sd card for loading FRP bypass files, though none have worked for me.

Yet another method uses a code entered into the calculator which eventually allows you to turn on USB debugging.

I found a method to get into the main menu to turn on "unknown sources" and even factory reset from inside.

None of these exploits has worked. None of the bypass scripts have managed it. At some point I (or my roommate, the phones owner) must have logged into my google account because it shows up in 'active devices' in my Google security settings. when I try to enter my account at the FRP screen I get the "unknown error, try logging in 24 hours from now." That was two weeks ago.

I've managed to add a new samsung account, but am blocked from adding a new Google acct.

I know I"m so close but can't find a way to elimimate the FRP

ANY help would be appreciated

No phone has ever beaten me, and this one won't either

If you can get a browser open then all you need do is to download Samsung Internet browser from Samsung apps (no need for a Samsung account)

Install it, open it, download quick shortcut maker, go to downloads in the browser and install it and run it.

From there open email and accounts. Tap the 3 dots top right to sign in via browser.

Use a legitimate Google account to sign in then reboot.

You can then sign in with that account. No need for any kind of bypass files.

We are speaking of when a phone is 'Google locked' or Factory Reset Protection has been activated. In that case, you normally can't get into the phone to open a web browser. Bypassing FRP is the objective here.

Is the APK from MediaFire? Whenever I clicked MediaFire says it is a dangerous file and is blocked it. So are you downloading the rar? File version 0.4?

You're better off just disabling them instead using Samsung package disabler or BK package disabler.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] joecuzz:
Tracfone Samsung Galaxy sky s320vl

why is it pointless? will the phone not stay rooted? Sorry I just don't know a lot about this. you're saying use BK package disabler without running, correct? I understand this I just don't understand the software root with dirty cow and how it works. it's just a temporary root I guess I don't really understand I get using a modified firmware it's like having a Windows computer you can do what you want but I don't understand the temporary root this way and why it would be pointless to uninstall stuff that I don't want or need.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] ashyx:
If your aim is to simply remove Samsung apps and services then you don't need root as you can simply disable them as previously advised.

The eng boot is available with the combination firmware, but I'm unable to get it for free. To obtain it costs $10.

Hi All,

I've been playing around with this phone a bit...it was a burner phone that I got when I was on holiday, and I decided to make it useful where I live (Canada).

a few questions:

-does flashing the engineering modem (included in the engineering rom) mess up my ability to connect to a wireless carrier? Are there any radio-specific things that get deleted when I do this?

-I believe there are GSM and CDMA/LTE versions of this phone. Is it possible to switch? Currently mine is CDMA/LTE, and I need it to be GSM.

Thanks in advance for any assistance,

Ivan

[YotaPhone] fly20:
Hello,

I received the YotaPhone 2 (YD206) today.

The box was sealed.

When I tried to turn on the phone, it didn't start. I thought it was empty so I put in on charger for 2 hrs.

After that I tried again , but still nothing happened -- i was holding power button multiple times, as long as 5 minutes at the time, but there was simply no response -- no vibration, no sound, screen remains black (not turned on), anything at all.

I tried different chargers as well (Xiaomi and Samsung one) -- they weren't working with this phone either.

When I connect phone to a PC, I just hear sound that something is connected (I saw installing drivers notice first time I connected it), but nothing happens at all. I don't see the phone in my computer or anywhere else.

Is there way I can fix this somehow? What else can I try?

Thanks!

Sounds like the phone is defect. The only thing I can think of is that it somehow freezed up and you will need to let the battery drain so all power is off the phone and then try to recharge it. Draining the phone completly without screen use can take up to 7 days.
[YotaPhone] fly20:
I finally managed to turn it on,by keeping it on charger for whole day and night and after a couple of attempts it was on.

I thought battery voltage was pretty low which prevented it from turning on.

I used a phone for a day, completely discharged it and then recharged it to 100% again. I thought everything is gonna be good now.

Then I wanted to upgrade to Lollipop, I decided to use YotaFlasher to flash EU KitKat first, and that worked fine. After that, I used OTA update to download Lolipop.

Download finished, and I was offered to "restart device and apply update", but as soon as I confirmed, the device went off and I can't turn it on anymore. What the heck is happening with this yotaphone? (battery was at 97%)

I can't turn it on, restart, put in download or recovery mode, get it to charge or get the screen on. Also PC don't recognize it *AT ALL* -- not even sound that something is connected. It looks completely dead (again).

Any ideas what I can do to fix my new problem?
