Dang man I remember the good ol days when we could just hide root titanium restore the data and be good. I literally just finished switching from T firmware to U this is my first time on it and it's great even with root. I just finished installing the xposed apk, are you guys installing the framework through the app?

I'm seeing a lot of:

mount: '/dev/block/dm-0' not user mountable in fstab

mount: 'rootfs' not user mountable in fstab

mount: '/dev/block/dm-1' not user mountable in fstab

Not sure what I need to do to get passed that. I tried manually clearing the lockscreen, removing fingerprints etc then "REMing" the lines.

But it still gets stuck at Resetting Lockscreen Security and obviously the errors about are from earlier in the script before

You're fine, you don't at all. Its the Engineering boot.img that you flash with Odin. It removes Write Protection to the system partition (That's probably why you were getting hung up on removing Knox apps, write protection was still on)

Find Odin Prince Comsy here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591023225177749

Open Odin and click the "AP" Button and find the boot.img for your variant (Flat or Edge) and select it, put phone into download mode and flash. Then root.bat should run fine

SU Binary Occupied error

I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy S7 G930A (AT&T ) with Android 7.0 and the August 1st patch. I installed the Samsung drivers (v15.4) on a Boot Camp partition (running Windows 10 version 1703). I then flashed the appropriate image using the PrinceComsy Odin as detailed in the instructions in this thread, and ran the root.bat from the SuperSU 2.82 zip provided, making sure the phone was recognized by my computer each time. However, when I complete the process, SuperSU reported that the SU Binary was occupied. I unrooted my phone and tried again with the original SuperSU 2.79 root.bat script, but SuperSU then asked me to update the binary. Any suggestions on the cause of this and what I can do next?

Don't update the Binaries. It will screw up the root. Not for sure which root.bat you used, but I would try this one:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bygh6W_e2Fo5Vkk1bURVaHdKbzg/view

That is the one that I use and it works great for me. It is from [MENTION=5149713]Quickvic30[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6801459]Craz Basics[/MENTION] and should work fine. I have the same Security Update as you mentioned and using the above root.bat solved my problem of the updating the SuperSU files.

So your best bet it to unroot again, and run the 2.78 .bat and just don't update super su. If you do on accident just don't update the binaries

I too have the G935A and have rooted my phone successfully many times now. So to answer your first question, Yes.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] freeop:
If you want to return to FULL Stock you will have to be in Download Mode AND Flash ALL 4 files with Odin.

But you can find more up to date files from here - https://xdaforums.com/att-s7-edge/how-to/g935a-restore-stock-odin-files-t3648953

These are the BQF3 files and the ones you posted in the above post are the BQA6 files. You can download the zip from that thread, unzip and will have 4 files. Use those 4 files and go to Download Mode on your phone and add the AP, BL, CP, and CSC files into Odin and away you go. After that check for updates and you should be able to get back to BQH1 update.

I've read somewhere that enabling the fingerprint lock on the phone before applying the Root.bat may help.

You may also try Craz Basics's solution, or just use a regular pin/pattern lock.

It should, you may also give this a try:

Go to Applications > Application Manager > More > Bluetooth Share

Press Force Stop, clear the cache then turn Bluetooth off and on.

Restart the phone.

Hey, I too have been frustrated as hell. I crave root, I just need to do things (TiBU and mail file management), plus miss all the features.

I tied yet again with the latest root.bat (2.82) and it was as bad as ever. the lag was just brutal. The killer was the inability to answer calls. When a call would come in after about 5 or 6 rings I would get the little notification banner to show (not the full screen as it usually does) and most of the time the call would disconnect before I actually answered.

I have stumbled across something that I am in the early stages of testing, it may not prove out at all.

I installed 'swapper', set it to a temp folder, 2G and 'swappiness' of 50%.

The change is DRAMATIC. I am noticing very very little lag on the phone and when I call it I get the full screen notification almost instantly, say 1 ring at most before it appears.

I suggest you guys having trouble give this a shot. Like I said, it may not pan out, but at least for the moment I have a very usable phone.

I am on LSpeed at performance. Battery is just so-so, not that great. If this performance (no lag) holds, I will move into the governer aspect of things.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Craz Basics:
What REALLY helps is after flashing eng boot, wait a good 10 minutes before touching it. Also, gotvuner. I keep mine on balanced profile with performance at 7

I've been playing Spotify for an hour with not one stutter, it would stutter all the time prior to Swapper.

Again - this may be a flash in the pan, we'll see.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Craz Basics:
Nice, thanks man, how have you set it up so far?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] carpboy:
I set it at 2G for the swapfile size, choosing a folder called 'temp' (I don't know if that is a native folder or one I made some time ago). It is on emulated\0, I believe that is internal SD memory.

'swappiness' is set to 50, God knows what that does.

I just called it while Spotify was playing, this was the kiss of death. The music would get horribly choppy, than a pathetic fragmented ringtone would ensue, and maybe the screen would show the call just in time for me to actually answer it. The call was smooth the whole way, the full screen appearing between rings 1 and 2, no hiccups at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Craz Basics:

Try a different USB port, or several? That's happened to me before.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] saltedfish10mm:
I have tried a different cable, and finally got the "use USB for..." option, which I assume means there is finally a data connection. I cycled through the various options while typing "adb devices" into an admin-privileged command prompt. All of them returned blank except when the device was set to "connecting MIDI devices." Once I set it to that option, the "adb devices" finally returned a single device in the list, but states it is "offline."

Further, I got a notification stating "Attention. The connected device is unable to access data on this device. Reconnect the USB cable and try again." Then it goes on to ramble about Android File Transfer or Samsung Smart Switch and mentions Mac OS X. See attached image.

Could this be the disconnect? Is there some app we've overlooked?

Edit: I'm not sure what I did (aside from spamming "adb devices"), but I got a notification asking if I wanted to allow USB debugging from this (my) computer. I allowed it, and now the adb devices list is no longer "offline." I'm going to attempt the root now, since the phone and computer seem to be talking to each other now.

Edit edit: booting into download mode and then checking the "adb devices" returns nothing. Odin is blank, no green lights or nothing.

I am still hanging in with Swapper, it is looking pretty good.

I noticed a little bit of lag last night, I called the phone when it hadn't been touched for several hours (the phone calling is at the moment my main test, as the response prior to Swapper had been abysmal and just bugged the living **** out of me), and it actually lagged and took about 3 or 4 rings to show. At least it was the full screen and not the little notification bar.

But overall still very nice, compared to before. I notice little lag events, I get it, but is very very tolerable, and I get root!

We'll see when I start traveling this week, Maps is always an issues with the eng kernel, for me.

I moved LSpeed to balanced, but under CPU settings it insists on showing me as performance, despite changing it and running the balanced profile.

Battery is at about 9% pts./hr with light use. A little more than I would like, 6% under the same conditions (no wifi, just data) would be good.
