After a full day after root I must say that I'm good with the results so far. I'm on T-Mobile and I've had no issues with wifi calling, bluetooth, streaming movies, gallery, mms, car mode or video calling.. The battery I think is compromised a tad just because of the root naturally but its nothing drastic I couldnt deal with. Now just waiting on someone to make a great ROM with some awesome features and Xposed and I'm all set until the S8 comes out.. I'm satisfied so far.. Thanks OP for your help as well.!

Wanted to know where I can find a "working dual speaker mod" I thought i read on here where someone had it working but I cannot find. The one I downloaded does not work.

In my case it's set to 6 seconds, but it still doesn't lite up. As for the battery issue, I've already been working on it by adjusting the kernel and freezing packages/services. It's approaching acceptable.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] saf4xdadev:
You probably tried this but see if resetting it to on or off etc too see if it works. Might also need to wipe cache from the phones recovery. Just brainstorming. Can't see what would cause that to happen otherwise.....maybe it is broke??

This is like night and day between the MM eng and N. G930T flashed threw Odin comin from pg1 build used home csc. I had three packages disabled doing this. Pushed root threw adb,I have no lag what so ever. The only lag is on startup before kernel app kicks in.

The problem is that I'm a nitwit. I had enabled the medium power saving setting under battery and didn't think about it disabling the LEDs under the capacitive buttons. Turning it off restored proper operation of the lights, but I'd rather have the power savings. Mystery solved, though.

Has anyone seen the error message pop up about the "SIM Card is Full" and to delete some text messages off the SIM card to free up space? It just started yesterday, and I've never seen that message before. It started about an hour after I applied the Volt Icon hurricane removal patch (v4). Not sure if it's related or not.

The only way I can get rid of the message is to open Messenger (Samsung messenger, specifically) and delete the dozen or so texts that seem to be stored there. Meanwhile, in Go-SMS I have a crap ton of messages still there that don't seem to impact anything. I've tried freezing the various texting apps on the phone to no avail.

As for the speed of the phone, it's pretty decent on root compared to the MM root, which was very laggy with more than a couple apps running. However, the constant issues I'm having with random pop ups is wearing on me.

So, today was my first real work day with this device running root. It managed to get home with 80% charge, and I was on it a fair amount. At least 25-30 minutes of voice calls, and a goodly amount of texting. I'd have to check the stats, but it was a pretty normal day.

Performance wise, it did fine, despite my conservative kernel settings and putting it in medium power saving mode. There is the occasional jankiness, which I assume is related to background apps running, but it's still better than my old phone. After a while, I got to where I rarely noticed it, with the exception of Settings or Firefox sometimes "hanging" for a moment. This could also be due to the Defender case - I've noticed the sensitivity dropped a lot when I put it in the case.

I did notice a bit of lag in Facebook, but that is largely attributable to downloading images. I was a bit surprised by that, as I would have expected it to download faster than that, but once they downloaded, the lag was pretty minimal.

My only remaining issues are fairly minor, and some have nothing to do with root. I can live with the stupid hurricane icon (seriously - what was that intended for?) and VoLTE icon, given that Bluetooth and WiFi are working great. I also hate the tethering delay while it asks permission, but that's just an AT&T thing.

Maybe I got lucky, but this device definitely seems fine.

This is a good question...did you ever get an answer? Going back to stock as soon as I know for sure. I *thought* we had to do all 4 files, and use the HOME_CSC file instead of the other CSC file. I really don't want to lose my stock files...so any help is appreciated.

You need to load the other 3 files and then HOME CSC to keep your data.

I hope i'm being stupid, but looking for suggestions.

Followed the instructions to root my S7 Edge SM-G935T. Downloaded everything, wiped cache partition. Put phone in download mode, used Odin to push s7edge_qualcomm.tar. Rebooted, ran root.bat., Everything looked good, rebooted and wiped cache partition again.

Installed Kernel Auditor and it says No Root.

Put phone in download mode again, repeated push with Odin followed by root.bat

Same thing, again says No Root. Tried 'su' from terminal and nothing happens.

Turned off Security Policy updates, haven't been updated since 11/11/16.

When I boot the home screen says 'Samsung Galaxy S7 edge 'Custom' with an unlocked padlock icon.

Tried running root.bat 5 times now as some people said it didn't take the first time, still no luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] petiolarissean:
Disconnect the phone from computer.Reboot the computer then run adb command.That should work.If not do same and run root.bat

Has anyone gone from this Nougat Root (Eng Img) back to MM Root? I am just not happy at all with this Eng Img. I am only getting about 6 hours battery time and that is mostly idle time. If I use my phone at all, that drops it down to about 3 hours battery time.

I have all the files for MM Root but was wondering if I have to go back to UnRooted MM then use the Eng Img for MM to root. Or can I Odin the MM root img from where I am right now? (Rooted Nougat)?

Any help would be fantastic.

Where is this home.csc file? Im on the AT&T s7 flat. Could I use one from T-Mobile or another carrier? Does anyone have a link for just the home.csc file?

---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

Did you enable developer options? Do you have a screen lock? If so you have to unlock your phone and accept the popups for adb to work. Also, What you can do to see if your drivers are working properly is open a command window where your adb files are and type (without quotes) "adb devices". If it does not show some random letters and/or numbers along with "device" next to them then your drivers are not installed properly. Sometimes you have to go into device manager and find your phone, right click, click update drivers, browse pc for drivers, manually select driver. Find the drivers relevant to adb and then click it.

Something weird on the s7 yesterday. Wife came home and said the battery was nearly dead. I pulled the stats and it went out at about 70%. Over two hours it used 65%, virtually all of that on 'phone radio'. She was in offices awaiting appointments and on the phone constantly, data over this period was only several hundred MB. Regardless, that sound exorbitant, even if poor cell coverage existed.

All testing with that phone was at home on Wifi. Turned wifi off last night and so far am not seeing anything weird.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Quickvic30:
Most of the time it comes with the firmware but a lot of the time the OP will not post it for some reason, so unless he is willing to post it not really sure where your going to find it. Pretty sure you can't use another carriers CSC file or else it will fail in Odin.

Ok so day 3 after root following OP to a tee(not sure if I did the kernal thing right) and its starting t o get brutal for me. Battery life sucks but normally I'm not worried because I always have a charger(wireless, wall, portable and car).. Performance is wacky now.. After boot it takes about 2mins for everything to settle in. When it has settle I get lag with text, whats app, youtube and sometimes screen transition swipes.. What can I do different with the kernal settings.. I've never in my flashing history bothered kernal settings so I'm not familiar with them at all.. I would just flash the one to fit me and go.. This is more difficult.. Anybody have an idea of some performanced based kernal settings for this on a T-mobile device? Im good with the battery. I can live.. Performance as a daily driver i cannot.. I wanted to give one last shot before going back to stock. I'm using the kernal editor as OP suggested.. I think I did the settings right(changed the governors) however I'm not sure how to adjust settings for the cores in the app.. I dont see where I can change them(core 1&2 and 3&4) to conservative, on demand, etc. Please help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] freeop:
Go into the app (Kernal Adiutor) and click on the menu icon (3 vertical lines in upper left hand corner). Under Kernel/CPU scroll down to CPU Governor for cores 3 and 4 and select the one you want. Mine is set to conservative. Then scroll down again and you will see cores 1 and 2 and again hit CPU Governor and do the same thing. And before you exit, scroll back to the very top and click the Apply on Boot. Then exit out and you should be set.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] carpboy:
From the hamburger, choose CPU and scroll down a smidge, both are there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] cr1130:
Thank you both.. I think I just got confused and didnt wanna mess anything up crazy.. I set both to conservative. We'll see how it goes.

After rooting and trying multiple tweaks and settings mentioned here, I was finally able to get a stable phone. For a couple of days. Then the lag came back after the phone ran for more than a couple hours. I'd restart, wait 5 minutes or so, then the lag will be gone for another couple hours. It'd stutter on youtube playback, lock up using maps, and would "half answer" calls (Phone would stop ringing, but the call is never picked up). Had to unroot after all that, but I'm hopeful to see more progress here! Keep up the good work!

Two things:

1. If you do an odin flash, boot.img will be replaced with stock. There is not a "sometimes".

2. Did you disable security policies in settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] lostpilot28:
OK, Odin back to Stock last night went without a hitch. I root because I have an old app that I need to restore with Titanium Backup, because it won't install otherwise (even with the APK).

Anyway, now back on stock and everything is working much better. No more random popup error messages. No lag. No issues with anything, and I'm very impressed with the stock Verizon Nougat. They managed to not even load the phone up with a ton of garbage apps. There are a few, but for the first time that I can remember, the list that need to be frozen/removed is less than 10. Even with them on the phone it runs very smooth.

Battery life while rooted was giving me about 14 hours per day with average usage. Unrooted I'm getting closer to 18 hours.

I hope the root issues get ironed out, because I'd much prefer root...but until then, I'm happy with the unrooted, stock ROM.

After reading through a lot of feedback I've decided not to root my s7 because the problems are not worth it. Kinda sucks having root with no problems to switching to the s7 and finding out there's really no development for it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] dandel0074:
Has anyone tried flashing the U version (where there is less bloatware and possibly run better)? I thinking about giving this a try and then rooting. Being that this root method works best with t mobile version, the root process should go just as smooth ( I say smooth simply because I am currently root with t mobile version and haven't had any problems except for some minor lag and this is with all the mods and adjustments) I've also was on stock nougat version U and was working great before the T mobile version was available. I also tried the AT&T version and ran pretty good.

Any one with some better understanding of this with some insight would be a great plus yo add to this.

What do you guys think is it safe to give this method a go?

So I was playing with LSpeed a bit and found that it removes basically all lag if you set the seeder to enlarger or above, mixed with the CPU fixes. Didn't even use KA. Battery life hasn't noticably decreased since the value was changed either.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jshamlet:
I'm not sure what I did right, but I'm not having battery issues at all. Today's usage was fairly light - the phone received emails and text messages. Maybe 5 minutes of talk time. It was at 100% (on the charger) close to 9 hours ago, and is still showing 91%. That, compared to my old phone, is pretty phenomenal.

What are you guys expecting for battery life, because right now I'm happy with the battery life on my device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] carpboy:
I'm not sure what to expect, coming from an S3, but I think 8 pct. pts/hr, moderate use, is great. I'm happy with 12 hour legs.

After a day of being rooted I've notice that when my phone is under 45% when I go to put on charge the phone keeps disconnecting the cable then reconnect, so now I have to turn my phone completely of to fast charge, which is ok because if it's dead and needs to be charged it shouldn't be on. Other than that nothing, battery could be a lil better it drains I tad bit faster than stock imo.

You guys should try the play store ROM, just flies! Also there's two different versions of the root bat files, one has tweaks and I think that one is causing the lag. Check out the ROM in the development section :good:

Well I rooted my phone just now so far it's laggy but I'm gonna give it a couple days with the CPU governor settings set
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jshamlet:
The problem is that something is keeping the CPU awake and busy, and it appears to be the kernel itself. I would have thought the debuggers would have been dormant in the absence of a debugging console, but clearly something is busy.

There are some debugging references in the build.prop, but I haven't had a chance to alter any or them, but I have to admit, the unpredictability of the lag is what makes it infuriating. For long stretches, the phone will be smooth as butter, then it will ignore me randomly for several seconds out of nowhere.

It's starting to tempt me to take it back and go back to my old phone. It was at least predictably laggy, if largely tethered to its charger. I hate to eat the restocking fee, so I'm holding out that there will be some hope of a less laggy root.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] loganbeck14:
Guys, I found that conservative mode works best when it comes to making your phone act right also before rebooting I found it is best to wait about 5 minutes after applying governor settings so that it will stick when rebooting

Hello i have S7 for T-Mobile that is on Nougat. The issue that I am having is that my voLTE wont work over phone calls after rooted my phone and followed the steps. Before I had it rooted the voLTE during calls would work, Each time when iI make a call it drops down to 4G (During Root). When I am using the phone regularly the 4G LTE will show up but soon as I receive a phone call it drops to 4G. I checked to see if my voLTE feature is off and its not.
