Su binary occupied! Help

Guys! Can anyone help me please :(

I am using Verizon variant of S7 Edge

On my 1st attempt to root, it was successful. After rooting, I flashed jrkruse's Verizon_QF2_Hybrid_Nougat_Rom_FlashFire_Install using FlashFire. It went pretty well. After few days, I wanted to experiment again with my phone, so I tried to install "stang5litre Edition 5.0 s7e" rom while I'm still using the QF2 Hybrid Rom and then I got a bootloop....SO I FLASHED BACK TO STOCK FIRMWARE VIA ODIN (the latest build number G935VVRS4BRC3)... I wanted to root again,so I tried, the same old way.... IT WAS SUCCESSFUl! But the moment I checked my root using different ROOT CHECKING apps, it says my phone is not rooted. And everytime I open SuperSU, I am getting the message "SU BINARY OCCUPIED".

What I did so far:

1: Uninstalled SuperSU v2.82 and replaced it with v2.79.....SU BINARY OCCUPIED POPUP GONE. But it is now asking me to update my binaries,which fails to update everytime.

2. Re-flashed other stock firmwares then tried to root again. Same results.

Stock firmwares that I tried were,QF2 and SM-G935U G935UUEU4BRD1 firmware.

I really need to root my phone guys,please if anyone can help. I would really APPRECIATE IT!! :(

Visual Voicemail APK

I have one I just pulled from my S4 and destined for my S7. PM me and we'll figure out how to get it to you.

Did you remember to enable "USB Debugging" and to disable "Verify Apps over ADB" in developer options before flashing eng boot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] gerard0986:
Hopefully it isn't too stupid of a question, but a bit confused with everything and I wanted to confirm a few things before doing anything.

I have a Verizon S7 Edge (According to IMEI.) that is running the SM-G935U firmware. Completely stock at the moment. Android version 7.0. Build Number BRD1 with the same Baseband BRD1 if it matters. April, 1, 2018 Security Patch too if that matters.

I can just follow OP's steps without issues? Nothing else needed? Will it stay rooted even after Factory Reset? Any disadvantages to rooting other than losing Google Pay and such? Lastly, so far, we can only root? No custom recovery, ROMs, or Kernels from after root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] AkiraPerera04:
Rooting failed

Yo, I have the SM-G935U. When I finally root it, the phone restarts every 1 minute or so for ever, then I have to flash a stock firmware onto the phone as it won't stop restarting. It starts to get really hot. On the back of the phone it says SM-G935T however on the phone it says SM-G935U. I'm not sure if that would make a difference. But I'm really confused. What do I do?

Thank You--Akira.

Hey, did I do any harm by re-running root.bat to install the fingerprint?

Also, how do I install the hotspot fix

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

What is the Hotspot Fix for? I flashed via flashfire, as a zip file.

I use PagePlus, and still can not use hotspot?

Was I suppose to mount/system installing hotspot fix? What did I do haha.

The package Disabler app that I have been using successfully for quite some time now has quit working.

So, that right there is reason to rerooted my phone!

This time, after gaining root, I am going to disable or uninstall all apps relating to Samsung Knox.

Gonna immediately delete Supersu and try another super user app instead; one that has current support.

how to unroot ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Wimmer4Archery:
Simply reflash via Odin whichever operating system you want; It is 100% fool proof.

Just followed the OP once again and am rooted successfully for the 2nd time. I plan to stay this way. I got tired of the Package Disabler apps working only about half the time. I can control all start up apps, remove ALL bloat, and run Vicky's APPS2SD.

The only thing that I added to the OP was that after I completed the entire process, I simple cleared the cache through recovery before using the phone in its rooted state.

Set big governor and small CPU governors to conservative and am getting smooth operation and good battery life life as well. (I set these via Kernal Adiutor.)

I am rooted via SuperSu as are all my other android devices. In my opinion, it is best to leave SuperSu untouched. Do not try to update the binaries, do not try to uninstall it, do not try to reinstall it from PlayStore. SuperSu is not being maintained properly, so it is best to just leave it as is. By the way, this advice comes from Ashyx himself. Specifically, I read a post where he stated NOT to update the binaries.

Once again, Jkruse has kept the OP root process up to date and you simply can't do better than his root process. Many thanks to both Ashyx and Jkruse for their incredibly hard efforts over the years.

Newbie tryna root sm-g935v 7.0

Am not sure if this method still applies or not ( I don't see why it wouldn't work) but anyway, I followed every step here and after the last step the device rebooted. It took a few minutes to reset and the first thing I noticed was the custom unlock logo while the reset was progressing. So after the phone was done I unlocked the device ( the lock pattern was not active at this point) and I proceed to check for root access using basic root checker. No root was detected and I didn't see SuperSU either so I just manually added the apk from the files in the thread. SU did not find root. Now am trying to find out if am missing a step or is this method outdated or something. Besides the custom unlock logo I noticed that the kernel version did change (3.18.31-eng), and the SE for Android Stat as well, and the phone a little bit slower. Can someone give me input on my situation?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] 5770mp:
Some wrong.. actually some kernel delete the app that detect root to tell knox (the app. Not warranty) and this way is work on tw with root. No aosp ofcours. (Or Samsung let s pay to work with root?. I mean.. is just work)

Btw. This can be used to sim unlock?

your S7Root_Unroot_SU_2_79.zip vs original MM S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip from psouza

I have a question about the embedded changes in your rooting zip. Are there differences in your .sh files from the original patches from psouza for the MM root method? I am trying to figure out why the nougat rooting on my G935P (Sprint) causes the bluetooth not to work and the Wifi passwords not to be saved after reboot. I checked the build.prop and manually checked and reset the setting ro.securestorage.support = false. But is still looses the wifi password on reboot. Also I can't get bluetooth to stay on. Everything else about rooting using your method seams to be ok.

Any suggestions on what to check to fix this issue for the Sprint S7 Edge running the official nougat?

Thanks

Thanks for the work and good find.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
Ok here is a way to flash the needed verizon files to the system and remover tmobile files and return the phone to stock official status. Wificalling will work Visual Voicemail Volte etc and you will not have to root your phone and once the process is done you will be using the Stock Official Boot.img not the Eng Boot.img

Download Fix_WifiCalling_ADB.zip unzip it

If you dont have the verizon firmware then download this G935TUVU4BQB1_Nougat_VZW_G935V.zip

This process is going to wipe your phone so lets start fresh

Reboot to recovery wipe data reboot back to bootloader

In odin flash BL_G935TUVU4BQB1_CL10376601_QB12449118_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 In BL slot

AP_G935TUVU4BQB1_CL10376601_QB12449118_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta.tar.md5 In AP slot

CP_G935TUVU4BQB1_CL10376601_QB12449118_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 in CP Slot

Leave CSC slot Blank

Go through setup don't add any accounts your going to wipe again when finished reboot back to bootloader

In odin Flash Engineering Boot.img from the OP in AP slot

When phone reboots and computer reconnects to phone

In Fix_WifiCalling_ADB folder click the Fix_WifiCalling.bat

When done click press to continue the phone will reboot back to download mode

In odin CSC_VZW_G935VVZW4API3_CL8875708_QB11198937_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 in CSS slot

G935TUVU4BQB1_Boot_Recovery_Image.tar.md5 In AP slot

Phone will reboot to recovery and fail

In Recovery click Mount System

Wipe data

Reboot

Go through setup and you should have Official Status phone with verizon apps installed

Install View attachment RomControl.apk Open Advanced Calling make sure HD video calling is turned on and activate wifi calling

Then open rom control in the phone settings tab and access IMS settings and turn on VOLTE as explained in the tmobile firmware on verizon phone thread

If you want Tmobile style settings and call recording added to phone then download this View attachment others.zip unzip it and place the others.xml in the Fix_WifiCalling_ADB folder and place inside the push_system/csc folder and replace the other.xml in that folder with this one before you run the Fix_WifiCalling.bat

View attachment 4063719View attachment 4063720View attachment 4063721View attachment 4063722View attachment 4063726View attachment 4063727View attachment 4063728

Notice I added multi user and call recording you can see these in the pics and also notice a wifi call made and visual voice mail

follow-up question on bluetooth and wifi password problem after root

Hi jkruse. I am followiing up on my post#66. The root method works (almost completely) on the G935P (S7 Edge Sprint) running official nougat G935PVPU4BQQA. The only issues I have found are that bluetooth can't ne enabled and wifi passwords are lost on reboot. Any clues on a fix for these issues? Otherwise everything is working including the phone, and LTE data after root.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] SmarkWOW:
This is working great. Running Nougat on G935V with the Verizon image and rooted. VoLTE seems to work and call quality is great, only issue is that I can only send/receive MMS with the default Samsung Messaging app. I tried Textra (my preference) and EvolveSMS and both just stall forever sending and don't pick up waiting SMS. I can switch to Messaging and send an image immediately.

RomControl I have Advanced Calling set to "HD Voice and Video Calling" and Wi-Fi Calling to "On". IMS settings I have MMTEL switch on, RCS switch off, and then under MMTEL I have all ON except "Supplementary Service" which keeps turning itself off. The RCS section is grayed out.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Solved. This was an issue with the default APN under MMS settings in the texting app. Looks like the app was set to use its own and I changed it to use the system supplied (or system default) APNs.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kenshin6106:
Lag is solved people you can safely root with no lag . you don't have to even download kernel auditor from playstore. Here's what i did i OTA'd to nougat using verizon. I was reading in this thread about how root affects lag and the overall performance of the phone which is a price you will have to pay for root how ever this rom counters the english root lag problem perfectly here's how i did it

1. I set the phone to High performance.

2.I followed the root guide

3.When phone reboots and loads nougat wait for the performance mode icon to load and voila you have a perfectly lag free phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] SmarkWOW:
I didn't receive it via OTA, but should be the same result right?

I followed jrkruse's steps for putting the official Verizon Nougat image on the phone here and then followed his steps in the OP omitting the icon fixes.
