I bought today a Galaxy S7, would like gladly TWRP Recovery flash and AOSP ROM install

Is this method stable and safe? Can I run it without my device to brick?

Thanks :)

I followed the instructions step by step and while it did root my phone successfully, I found two problems after root:

1. camera crashes/ not working

2. MTP does not work so I can't access my files thru a PC.

Any ideas how to get around this?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] cribol:
Ok i found out what's wrong. I used supersu v2.79 instead of the latest supersu v2.82.

Hi, is there any way to root without losing data.

Other SU apps

Thanks very much for doing this. I used your instructions and everything worked more or less flawlessly on my Intl. S7.

Only problems, on first starting the phone after everything got wiped, I had a strange problem with the Samsung keyboard. It would automatically overtype every letter I input, unless it was set to forced uppercase, and then that would keep resetting after every keystroke. In the end I had to use the voice input along with some copy and paste and backspacing to get my Google account logged in. Everything works OK with Swiftkey though so I'm not too fussed.

I've also recently read about the sale of SuperSU and I'm not sure I can really trust it anymore. Now that Root is set up and working, can I sub in a different SU app, and if so, which one would work best?

Thanks again for the time and effort you and everyone else has put in to get this working so well already.

I'm running TWRP 3.1.1.0 & the 1st official LineageOS build (6/6/2017)

it's pretty unstable to say the least. even TWRP will lock up quite a bit (i've tested several older versions with same issues of it locking up too), and i've had it freeze using the camera (open camera) or just using various apps (cartoon camera, facebook, maps, etc)... or even just sitting idle it will freeze.

luckily you don't have to worry about bricking it... easy to get back into download mode and use odin to flash...

i'm contemplating going over to these unofficial daily builds here:

http://download.jesec.io/LineageOS/G930-herolte/

... just to see if it's somehow more stable... but i really doubt it.

starting to wonder if somehow my phone is defective... i don't see other people talking about TWRP freezing on them (and it will freeze at random too, sometimes right as it loads up, can't even swipe to open it, just have to reboot and try again). or maybe the software will mature for this phone in time.... but it's pretty tough using it right now...

thats my 2 cents...

EDIT-

just an update to this... installing version 5.0 (not the newest 5.1) of this solved all my problems:

https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/

it's still buggy, but that's to be expected on the first official lineage build for this phone, i don't have the issues with crashes in TWRP anymore etc

Now Transfer the above downloaded filed into your Phone or Memory Card or OTG Pendrive.

Now again click on Install and flash the Super SU. Only the latest Super SU is working fine with no issues. Do not use the old versions.

You can now click on reboot > system

You can use Magisk with Phh SuperUser. Search for magisk and you'll find some threads on XDA.;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killer333:
Yes. It is safe. Please follow the instructions carefully. You can install it without any problem.

And through ODIN, you can get back to stock ROM whenever you face any problem.

And those custom ROMs are not stable enough and there are many things that wont work or may freeze sometimes & force close. If you want to test the ROMS, you are good to go.

But, I wouldn't recommend them as daily driver unless you know what to do if you get any issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killer333:
This does not work on A7. Please search the threads in A7 forums.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killer333:
Sorry. You've to format the device to make the root work.

Please backup everything and root your device. Files in memory card will not be removed. So, you can keep them in Memory Card.

You can use Samsung Cloud backup for taking backup of your contacts, messages, apps, settings etc. All the best.;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Killer333:
Yes. It is safe to root this way. Bricking the device depends on what you do. If you follow the instructions, you wont brick your device.

Someone please help me! ive been dealing with this for hours
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] redjamesg:
I noticed this is a few days old, did you manage to solve the issue or are you still stuck with a 3500DKKR paper weight?

If you're still stuck, what exactly is your model?

On the back there are some writings underneath the CE markings, the very first line starts with your exact model.

Are you able to get into download mode?

Was the TWRP image correctly downloaded?

Did the md5sum/file size match after downloading?

From your description of the boot getting stuck, it sounds like some issue with your boot loader, if you are able to get into download mode I have experienced on some occasions that updating to latest boot loader right after fladhing TWRP will make it boot into TWRP without you having to press and hold any button combinations.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mcdanishdk:
It was never bricked as such, but no matter what combo of TWRP, Odin version and original or 1 dollar ebay cables, it did not work. Another helper suggested that my bootloader was locked and I thought that ticking "OEM unlock" was enough, but I guess not. I am not gonna flash it any more, I will live with the tripped Knox counter and make that clear if I sell it to get the new S8 or LG G6 as soon as possible. And then I will save up for a Galaxy S4 9500 or 9505, that one I flashed two or three times weekly to try out new ROM's ;=) Thanks for your time, I really appreceate it.

Hi, i am new to the note 5 i just gotten a n920t version on 7.0 and EQG3 and was wondering what would be the correct method of rooting and installing recovery for me? Thanks in advanced! and i have tried googling it and seems like there several threads and i don't know which to follow. One say use cf auto root and some say the SuperSU zip like i am confused what the difference is.

Edit:

The steps i was going to do is

1. odin twrp 3.1.1.0

2. flash supersu

---------- Post added at 12:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

i think i read you need 2.92 and above.

Edit:

never mind the latest on the supersu site is SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742? where you get 2.82?

Edit 2:

Im an idiot i clicked on the history links the zips are further done. Seems like i am in teh same boat as you?\

Edit3:

I am in the wrong device thread! i googled note 5 nougat root and stuff and this is the link it gives me!? I Apologize!

Can someone confirm if this root works while "Secure Startup" is enabled (aka with 'require pin/password when device turns on')?

I've got a Snapdragon S7, and I've discovered that enabling that option breaks its approach to rooting - I'm wondering if the same is true of the Exynos variant. If not (aka if I can have both root and secure startup), I'm considering returning this & buying an Exynos...
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿GotJazz?:
It's weird.

I had my HD8-6G on v5.3.1.0 (now, v5.3.1.1).

I installed the Amazon Fire Drivers that were on the Amazon developer website. But, my Win7x64 PC complained that it still didn't recognize the HD8 device while it was in ADB mode. So, I manually selected the Amazon.com ADB Composite Device for my updated driver. This works ... partially

If I booted the HD8 into "adb sideload" mode, the HD8 was properly recognized, and I was able to install the v5.3.1.1 update. However, the tablet is still not visible when I did an adb devices command. in my ADB / Fastboot shell. I tried running KingoRoot, and the tablet wasn't discovered.

How can I get ADB working properly on Win7x64?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 6200352:
this might be silly, but make sure you have developer mode enabled/adb enabled. also enable unknown sources in security. I would think it should show up when you issue adb devices..how strange.

* also I like to check stay awake.

Those are the very same drivers (fire usb for everything except recovery, and the android ones for the adb composite for recovery) I used and I'm on Windows 7 64 Bit.

* I just put my device in recovery mode and yeah it says android composite adb interface 10/27/2014 1.4.0.0 Amazon Services

hmm..actually it says the same when i reboot
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿GotJazz?:
I have all the same settings you list above, but the ADB device isn't being found.

I also don't get prompted for an RSA key. Could that be related? I may have been prompted previously, but I don't think so. This is the first time I think I did any ADB stuff on this tablet.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 6200352:
yes, you must get prompted for RSA key. If you disable usb debugging, then reenable it (with tablet still connected) you should get a prompt and check remember. That definitely is an issue if that never was applied.

* also I like to make sure stay awake is on. In addition, whenever you reboot the tablet, upon rebooting, I like to make sure the screen is unlocked and sometimes you need to quickly unplug it, then replug it back it once it's rebooted for the device to show up in my computer.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] syntropic:
Hi..

I updated to Android N, and everything went fine, but I found it a little buggy and (my mistake) didn't realize xposed was not working yet, and there are some privacy modules I really would like.... So, I decided to downgrade back to MM.

As I am s-off, I booted into a rom.zip RUU (1.96.617.20). During the subsequent initial setup, I picked a screen pattern (to be used on restarts only)..for whatever reason, I decided to pick something different besides the rather easy pattern I had used since the M8... I will call this pattern B. Also during setup I copied over my internal storage files which I had backed up my laptop.

I then flashed the correct TWRP and then installed the correct SuperSU.zip. When I rebooted from here, Pattern B worked fine as I expected it to. I then thought I it would save time by restoring a nandroid (also 1.96.617.20) which had a lot of tweaks and other things. That nandroid backup however I know used my old screen pattern, which I will call Pattern A. That restore finished without error.

After reboot I got the restart screen asking for the pattern... I wasn't sure which one would work, so I first tried Pattern A which would have been used in the nandroid restore I just finished.... no luck. So I thought ok, I will try the pattern I used when I set up MM, Pattern B. But that didn't work...

This makes no sense... I have never used a screen unlock pattern other than Pattern A, and then today, I tried Pattern B which I know I remembered correctly because I used it once before I restored the nandroid.

When I search on how to solve this problem, I see "do a reset"... but wouldn't a reset be the same as restoring a nandroid backup? And since I just restored a nandroid and the pattern doesn't work, I am stumped.

Anyone have any clue how I can fix this???

Thanks in advance!

I found in the Nexus Forum someone with this problem... I rebooted into TWRP, and using the file manager I deleted these files:

/data/system/locksettings.db

/data/system/*.key

A hint: You are talking about twrp, sill you are searching a nexus forum. Next time try twrp htc 10 thread instead ;)
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] syntropic:
I just googled "site:sea-developers.com pattern security not working HTC 10"

This wasn't strictly a TWRP issue... You could use TWRP or ADB to access the system partition IF the files which stored this security code were stored there (of this I wasn't entirely sure).

I didn't know for certain if these files were located in the same place or even under the same name as the Nexus, so I used TWRP's file manager to look around (starting in the above location) aa maybe I'd find them.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aclays:
I'm... asking for a friend....

But seriously, I tried following the instructions on the "[Guide] Step by Step from Stock N910V 6.0.1 to hsbadr's CyanogenMod 13.0 " thread, intending to bypass them when I got to the point of being able to jump over to the newer roms, and all I got was a boot loop when I tried flashing in 5.1.1. Is it because I'm on a retail 910v or was it a user error kinda thing? I tried multiple times and couldn't get it to boot after the flash, ended up flashing 6.0.1 back just to get my phone back.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpn377:
I'm also ready to free the bootloader and root this thing. It seems emotion OS is the most popular and up to date now, correct?

I have the CPL1 update from Verizon( Dec patch). I know there are a bunch of threads with how tos, but it's unclear how outdated they are and whether it works with these latest versions. If someone can confirm the best way to go from cp1 to emotion.. Let me know.

Also.. I saw a while ago a guide on how to go to developer edition. Why isn't that front and center anymore? Isn't Dev edition completely unlocked... Why wouldn't I want to convert to dev edition before dealing with any rom changes? If someone can give some clarification I'd appreciate it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpn377:
Great news, I went for the plunge and succeeded. Confirmed -> stock and latest version software as of Jan 20 2017 (CPL1) can be downgraded to 5.1.1, rooted, TWRPed, and blah blah. I used the same guide you mentioned at top (hsbadr's CM13 guide), except i stopped at step 52 and continued to install emotion OS instead. Highly recommend it.

I'm on EmotionOS now. Wow, it was really worth it. So smooth compared to touchwiz 6.0.1. Haven't found a bug yet, but even if i do, i won't care.

I'm not sure what you mean "when i got to the point of installing newer roms". If you got to that point, why were you trying to flash 5.1.1 again?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael7332:
How did you root it? I flashed mine back to 5.1.1, but I'm not having any luck rooting.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpn377:
Follow the guide. You are going to go through a complicated process using the king root apk. I think the guide makes you use king root 3 times total to accomplish various parts of the process. King root loads up and spins for a few minutes, eventually succeeds, then you gotta punch in some things to command line using adb. I believe this is rooting your phone a few times.

Eventually you end up with twrp bootloader and jasmine Rom and everything just sticks.

So far.. The only annoying thing with emotion is that I lost volte and video calling. Maybe they'll bring it in one day.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Anyone know how to get some of the stock verizon ringers back on to the xv6800 after flashing with a cooked rom from dcd's kitchen?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blazingwolf:
They are in your extended ROm if you have unlocked that. If not, get them from the PPCGeeks FTP.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
I have "unlocked" my extended rom by making a registry change. Now I can see the extended rom and the files. I'm not really sure what to do at this point though because I can't do anything with the files, they don't do anything. I'm probably just doing something wrong.

The cab files say they install, but no new ringers appear. The autorun file doesn't do anything. I've read several other threads stating that the registry hack I made just "unhides" the extrom, and now I have to unlock it. Anyone got any ideas for what I need to do next?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] WyldStar:
Oops, didn't notice this thread earlier.. lol. You may need to OEMize the cabs if they don't install properly.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
So that means I'd have to OEMize the cabs in the extended rom, then import them into dcd's kitchen? If so, does that mean I have to reflash again with another cooked rom with the OEM's that i make? Or is there a way to use the OEM's without reflashing?

Also, after looking over the cab files in the extended rom, none of them contain a _setup.xml file. OEMizer won't import the cabs from the extended rom because of this.

All I want is a few of the stock ringers from the original vanilla rom, and this is starting to become a huge headache. :-(
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blazingwolf:
Let me look at them later on today and see if I can grab them for you.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Yeah, I tried just dragging and dropping the cabs into OEMizer, which worked when I ran BuildOS. Cooked my rom, flashed, and the cabs were in my /Windows directory. Didn't do anything though because they still wouldn't install correctly.

Thanks blazing!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blazingwolf:
Here you go. You should be able to put them in the Windows/Rings folder.

EXCELLENT! You are the man.

May I ask what you did?
