I just grabbed a sm-j700t1.

I flashed via Odin, and is able to get into TWRP.

Although, to clarify. I must format DATA and flash "no-verify" in order to be able to MOUNT partitions?

I wanted to do a full nandroid first, but nothing will mount ( not even system ) .

Thanks for the release!
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Yeah gotta format type yes, then flash no verity aka encryption breaker after flashing anything that modifies the boot img. ie, root, rom,kernel, boot logo. After u flash encryption breaker reboot then set up the phone, then reboot back to recovery and u can make nandroid backups
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] hightech316:
Thanks for fast reply.

Used to HTC devices , Never had to do that particular technique . Figured be better to ask before I reformatted .

Hopefully I can contribute soon! :cool::good:

I got a rooted J700T with MM on tmobile USA. Is there a rooted Nougat stock rom for it?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
Roms dont get rooted any more (or shouldn't be), it's not the right way to root a device.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
So I was just trying to flash TWRP for a j700T that updated to aqf1 before ever being rooted and I know first-hand now this will no longer work with this firmware. We have had people tell us and this is why, it can't best the security update somehow.its beyond my skillset but ashyx, help us out please. I tried sideload root, to then install via twrp app, everything.nothing works. Sorry if I ever doubted anyone's directions of how they were trying.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] tyklink:
really? that is so strange... i have gone back to stock so many times... even went back to aqf1 on smart switch yesterday and it rooted fine... so im guessing that security patch only works if you have never rooted before?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Yea I have also, and I have flashed twrp on this phone 100 times for other people. I think it has to do with people who have been stock and always had their device status as official not custom for an extended period of time or something
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] tyklink:
hmmm i noticed that... how strange it was when aqf1 came out and people were having so much trouble rooting it... you think it might have something to do with knox? maybe it gives up if it has already been tripped...
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
So basically there is no hope for a properly working twrp or root for this phone now?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
The last few posts are confusing.

Is TWRP booting and it's root that's not working or is TWRP not booting at all?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Twrp does not work with this. U get pass from Odin but never boots. Won't go to recovery at all just bootloop until removal of the battery then stock recovery boots if initiated but not TWRP. We need to rebuild for the aqf1 firmware. It's only some j7 s.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] qwerty6532:
Actually I have Aqc3, does this work with that firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Yup
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] mr.duck254:
I use this twrp with ACQ1 and it never fails. I think the problem is that there are a couple of twrp versions floating around in our subforum that do not work. There is a 3.0.33, 3.0.22 and 3.1.0 mixed up in our threads that will not work. But this version works with ACQ1, ACQ3, APK6, usb debugging on or off. Doesnt matter, ive done it hundreds of times and it never fails.. Just make sure you are following the directions, and also make sure you are putting it in the AP slot. I have seen a couple of post telling people to put in in the BL slot. I have found people saying to use wrong VOLUP,VOLDOWN.. I found easiest way is to uncheck auto-reboot in odin so that the phone does reboot. When you get PASS, take out the battery. Put battery back in. Push and hold VOLUP+HOME+POWER until you see the boot splash screen. Keep holding for 2.5 seconds after you see splash then release. If you timed it right, Your should release them just prior to the boot screen dissapearing. Then youll get twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
It doesnt work with some of these phones. I can get usually anything to go on a phone. And 1 out of 20 do not take any twrp, its only if the phones have not ever had knox tripped before taking the update. i have every single version ever released by anyway since this phone came out.none of them work.i tried every single way we all know of and the phone wont take anything. It doesnt allow sideloading apps or anything. They beefed up the security with that update i think. And if we had tripped knox before updating to aqf1 then it is fine. It only has issues with aqf1 in these instances. Metabolic and i are going to build a new port
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] mr.duck254:
very interesting about that. Yes i tripped it before the ACQ1 update so I didnt know why people were having so much trouble. Makes it very hard to test also. Im sure you guys will get it.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Seems to be the only constant variable i can deduce
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
So i am ready to root/twrp but i realize there are more than one version of twrp. Which one works with AQF1? I am so tired of the lag that i been experiencing as of late. I disabled most bloatware but there are some won't let me disable.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
None of them if u updated to that firmware before root
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
I did. I guess this update was more of anti root methods and calling it "fixed issues" security has been beefed up.

Is there any news if this works with BQI5? I want to move onto 7.1.1 but it gives me a warning that this phone was modified in unauthorized way. So i'm thinking of just redoing the process once im on 7.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Just download aqf1 firmware, flash it and nand erase with odin, set it up, take 7.1.1 update now ur official again, once u set up nougat, boot into download mode, flash twrp, format data type yes, flash systemless supersu or magisk 14, then flash encryption breaker, reboot.tada.

Twrp and root do not work if your device never was rooted or had twrp before taking aqf1 update
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
Is it possible to downgrade back to aqf1? I need to relink my game progress and switch it over to Nougat.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] mario1634:
I know if you did a backup on twrp you because I upgrade to 7.1.1 and had to go back for some apps I didn't save. So that way I know you can
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
But what if i never rooted before. I suppose i can get the previous firmware from updato and odin flash.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
That doesn't make sense.:confused:

I don't see how previously being rooted or not has any bearing on whether or not root can be achieved.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
It does if knox was tripped or not. Flashing twrp or root trips knox. I have personally worked on these same exact j7 varients, and the only common variable are these conditions. They do not take any custom recovery or root. No way, no how. Then with phones that were previously altered,ie twrp/root, before that aqf1 update, they can be still be rooted and have twrp flashed successfully. I know ashyx, it doesnt make much sense but what else could be the reason? Its not operator error. I have personally rooted and installed 50 or more j700T, t1, successfully. The only ones i could not were under these conditions and only about 4 total. What could be the reason? And also, its not just based on root, its if twrp was previously installed
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] ashyx:
So what's the process?

The device simply doesn't boot after flashing twrp to either recovery or system, bootloops or hangs at boot logo?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
It hangs at boot logo, till u take out battery, then it boots up but still has stock recovery. If u flash the international j7 twrp it bootloops. Its only if they fall in to those conditions.strange, i know. I have done it no problem with a bunch of these devices.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Khronikal:
Let me get this straight. I just acquired a j700t replacement phone through insurance. It had the aqf1 update, and yesterday I updated to Nougat (BQ15). Are you saying my phone is a variant that cannot be rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Correct. At the moment. our ragtag team is gunna find a solution just may take time.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
So knox has not been tripped yet and updated to Nougat. So basically, twrp/root not possible at the moment?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Yup. If u had tripped it before aqf1, then it would be possible. We will figure out a workaround
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Khronikal:
Much appreciated!

In the meantime...in your experience, is it possible to successfully root this phone without twrp? Something like Paco's way that was used before twrp came out? And then hope to come back to the twrp/root method when it's available?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
Google and Samsung just got serious of what people do with their phones, all thanks to virtual pay apps. I remember on my last phone, the Wells Fargo pay app refuses to load due to root. can't have both i guess.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] carefreeteddy:
I tried to root after the 7.1.1 update and could not obtain root until I downgraded to 6.0.1 but now I am having trouble installing twrp keep getting stuck in a bootloop when trying to boot into twrp. So I still .com not have twrp but I have a rooted sm-J700T1 on 6.0.1 with no twrp. I"m new at this but

I .com not think that its .net. (lol)
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Did u format data? In twrp? After doing that flash a system-less root zip and then encryption breaker zip
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Kairosin:
I dont think you understand AQF1 hasnt worked with twrp. At least in my experience.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
No I understand, but he's saying he has had root and twrp, it works fine if you already had root or twrp prior to upgrading to aqf1.

I know I tried it first hand myself and had trouble with a few.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Kairosin:
I thought he meant he upgrade to 7.1.1 N, found out he couldnt root, proceeded to downgrade to AQF1 is what I believe, managed to root but not TWRP.

[MENTION=8115613]carefreeteddy[/MENTION] Is this correct?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Metabolic12:
Are you using the CF-Auto Root method? I'm curious if the device would flash the recovery IMG in fastboot without Odin once someone granted the ADB shell su permissions. I know its a long shot, Samsung devices are notorious for rejecting fastboot and ADB commands, but it's worth a shot in my opinion. The binary is being blocked by a restriction upon boot, we just don't know what it is or why. If you're willing to give it a shot let us know.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] phoen1x74:
I can flash TWRP successfully but even if I flash the encryption breaker flashing supsersu 2.82 systemless mode causes verification failed on device startup. My only idea of a fix would be viper kernel? But I don't really want to mess with it rn so I'm just sitting with no root.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Please Read previous posts. The answers are the same. If u format and use encryption break and systemless root, u are fine. If u can install twrp, u can flash supersu. The only way none of this applies is if u didn't have a custom recovery and or root prior to aqf1 firmware upgrade. If it's not working, u did something wrong. Read and re try. I have faith u will get it. We know these situations in and out cuz we wipe our phones over and over everyday to help create development for this device. I promise it works. Start over, try again.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Kairosin:
So what happens to the people who havent had TWRP before AQF1? Is there something in the works? I would test if there is.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
They wait for a new version. Eventually yes. Okay we will let u know when we start the project.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] DroidJP:
Yay, phone is now unlocked. If i can't have twrp or root. At least have the phone unlocked. I am surprised MetroPCS let's you do this.

Hey guys,

I got the J700T, 2015 version. I currently have a rooted MM. I want to install Nougat, have root, have TWRP and be able to make nandroids. What are the steps for all this to happen?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Same as MM, boot to download mode, flash twrp, boot directly into recovery, format type yes, flash supersu 2.82 systemless or magisk 14, then encryption breaker reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] deloj:
Hi fullofhell,

Where do I download the encryption breaker? Please provide an URL, Thanks man.

One last thing, is Nougat faster and more battery efficient than MM? Which do you recommend?
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
U are in the spot where the encryption breaker is. I always make a folder on my external sd for tools, I keep 3 types of root, system supersu, system-less supersu, and magisk. And the encryption breaker. They are all vital to the game bro. Keep em handy while u have this phone. See attached pics for the rest of the cookie crumbs. Nougat kills it on all levels. Bye MM.

[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Alpha1020:
Alright, so I've read pretty much this entire thread to be sure I dont brick my phone. What ive seeing people say is that twrp will not boot if you are on the latest security patch (AQF1) and have previously never rooted or installed twrp before. Now, I bricked my phone around February (I think) and I think it may have been a hardbrick, but the most competent T-mobile employee I've ever encountered somehow fixed it and flashed some galaxy note 7 Rom from this site. But there was a pretty big problem, my camera didn't work, so I went for a good while without the use of my camera. But, I finally got the courage to try to flash something (stock rom) and it worked! My question Is, when exactly was this latest patch released? When I flashed the stock Rom, I had to update it. Will I be able to flash twrp and boot into twrp, as well as flash the encryption breaker and the root file with no problem? My device is a J700T

tl;dr Can I flash and boot into twrp if my device had twrp but a stock Rom was flashed and the device lost twrp, and if twrp was previously installed in February/March
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] REELpain941:
Go into settings, then down to about phone, and reply with model number,android version,baseband version, and kernel version so we know what is exactly on your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
Hey man I was thinking and I was wondering if you had ever tried rooting your j7 with the paco method with his root tar and then flashing a stock recovery image..I never thought about unzipping a supersu file and rezipping as a tar. It may work, then after u root it if it works, reflash the most current stock recovery image.then from there we could flash customs made up as tars through flashfire.. I would test it but the guy who has the phone that I can't Mod like yours, is kinda upset I couldn't do anything to it..same situation.. let me know your thoughts and if u would be willing to test out the theory..or anyone for that matter. We would need the newest supersu autoroot, unzipped and re did as a tar
[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] Kairosin:
Okay so, you want me to to download the latest superuser, unzip it, re-zip it as a .tar file, flash j7 with odin using said .tar file then flashing stock recovery? I'll test it right now.

[Samsung Galaxy J700T & J700T1 ROMs, Kernels, Recov] :
I have no prob usually but I have rooted and flashed prob 100 of these and just a few can't be rooted or have twrp installed. The conditions are if they were updated to firmware ending in aqf1 without ever having been rooted or had custom recovery flashes. We have all tried everything.

Edit. I have never tried that auto root before. Usually just use plain old system or systemless supersu. But still doesn't solve the twrp install prob.ill have he phone specifically in question in a couple days and I'll go at it again. I bought the screwed up one so we can figure it out

Ok I have read through this thread all night and I'm still not sure if I can root my phone or not. I just purchased this phone (j700t1) from a friend and updated it to aqf1 yesterday. It has never been rooted or had TWRP installed. So from what I gather, I can't root this phone now that it has the aqf1 update? Or I just can't root and have TWRP?

If it's still possible to root this phone, can someone point me to the most current way to do so?

Thanks guys! Keep up the great work!

Metropcs sent a text of a upgrade offer to J7 prime, so i can give up the Super amoled display and front-facing flash?? Ha, rriight. I will not be upgrading because the J7 is just awesome.

Edit: Ever since the Nougat update. No more random reboots so far, but now seeing another issue. This time it is a charging issue. I noticed charging stops at 90%. And when i bump charge (disconnect and reconnect) it starts charging again and when it reaches to 100% and disconnect, immediately drops to 90% and sometimes 85%. When this happens. I do a battery pull and that temporarily fixes it, only for it to happen again. Do i need to replace the battery?
