Did you delete the build.prop file from the zips push system folder before running root and after you've rooted, did you edit your buildprop for a data connection? Once I've rooted, All I did was edit my build.prop file using buildprop application from the playstore. I then got the LTE Data connection that stays on constant.

Thanks godpowerrr.

One of the main reasons I've rooted was for adblocking. I had tried a adaway application before but it was still showing ads when browsing so I removed adaway and installed adguard premium which works great. I also use a vpn which is why I needed to be rooted in order for adguard to work while also being connected to my vpn. I'm going to try this adaway mod. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
Well said. Those ad blockers aren't needed.. Do you see how big the hosts file is for adaway? 3 MB for text lol. You decide and let me know.

But [MENTION=8447964]OGSlayah[/MENTION] it could be many things. If your mobile networks isn't showing in connections its because you've lost SuperSU/root. ZIPS Flashed in Flashfire or having read-only items changed usually can break root for reasons I am not going to explain.

You can flash AP only from the stock package QF3 and update again to QG1. Then reroot flashing eng boot in AP slot in ODIN, then running root.bat again when device appears on computer.. It might just be strings like elder said.

It could also be your Auto Update System was on in Developer Options. I still don't even know what the crap does..just that it has the option to do what its name is lmao... Try rerooting and turning that option off.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] OGSlayah:
thanks for that! ill try it but one more question. i noticed after rooting that wifi calling doesnt work either for me. everytime ill go to enable it, it will load for a few seconds and turn back off. any way to fix this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] eldervamp17:
Editing the build.prop file connects you to the LTE Data and also wifi calling. Well it did for me :).

hi again so im having trouble understanding where to change settings in BHB27 Kernel App to balance CPU Performance and Battery Saving under the GovTuner section. Also does OGYoutube still work? When i download the app i get something saying i need MicroG but when i click the microg link nothing loads. Other than that everything is still working great and i appreciate everything!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
Everything in my thread works (no idea about hotspot I dont mess with that) and some of the processes are ways I figured out...with reading lmao. Some of this stuff is deep in threads and just have to know what to look for. I know my thread isnt always complete but its mostly the code that really pisses me off...so I can see why you would ask. I am maticulate with most of my organizing just get fed up and leave the site sometimes. Anywho, I have been meaning to post my BHB27 settings in screenshots...been putting it off. It's easier to check other threads out and find an answer, than wait for me to respond. A HUGEEEEEEEEEEEEE amount of tutorials are on XDA. We wouldn't be on this forum if it wasn't right? I promise that I am not coming off strong yet I can't be as speedy as you or I would want. I am going to try and fix all the links and stragglers but its like another one creates ... lol give me a few.

MicroG had put an extra letter in the URL, my bad. Make sure you keep these apps because its no longer be developed and these apps/links will soon die..but the app won't of course.

That is the current apk for OGYT and it works. I love the black ogyoutube theme. I dont use Youtube at all.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] leeboski44:
The OP said in the description under BHB27 kernel auditor to install as system app and make sure to keep SELinux mode set to PERMISSIVE. However, in the V4A description its stated that keeping SELinux disabled is not a wise decision with the Nougat release of V4A, as it used to be a requirement to have it disabled.

I'm confused here...Is it ok to have the setting in KA to PERMISSIVE or should we leave it alone for V4A? I use both apps and I have become very savvy with the OPs original method and followed it to the "T" with great success. Matter fact, I find that BHB27 KA works best for me over all the others.

Thanks in advance for clarification.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] frankrendon:
Heck yes it does! Alot of us want root just for this sole reason.

Can some one tell were to find the sound alive system app? I can't find it under settings apps system apps, or through package disabler pro...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] Nexus85:
Try typing sound in the search bar in package disabler...it should bring up all of the apps associated with the sound. Hope it helps.

[MENTION=7523343]godpowerrr[/MENTION] thanks for tak8ng on this enormous task of rooting the S7edge we appreciate all your contributions. I have to ask did you change devices.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
Currently, no. But I'm going to buy an unlocked phone from amazon that's not this device. I currently don't have this device and it's just way out of my range to provide happiness to myself and everyone here. I am PC master race and a gamer I did this out of my heart and I left a good trail of knowledge; I believe. To each is own.

Maybe my output is confusing but overall It's overwhelming. But don't think that I don't appreciate your guys' enthusiasm and respect for me because it carries with my devotion and work for the community. The phone I choose most likely won't be Samsung but a higher rootable/accessible device. I am tired and at times I'm providing for people in my life disregarding XDA. My life is dysfunctional at least to say and I'm exhausted. Thanks Joe for your input, I truly admire you.

Guide for bhb27, flashier and busybox

Hello does anyone have the the set up guides for bhb27, flashfire and busybox at one point I remember seeing them but for the life of me I can't find them I even googled them, the one for bhb27 is for moto and the guide does not look like the bhb27 kernel we have It would be awesome if someone could pm them to. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] Son Rise:
You getting the S8?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
What do you mean bud?

Try enabling the wifi calling before eng boot is applied..then immediately apply eng boot and set up apn then run SuperSu's root.bat. But this can also be a factor involving other.xml file in device's system/csc folder. Apply the csc string:

<CscFeature_Setting_SupportWifiCall>true</CscFeature_Setting_SupportWifiCall>

Into the XML before eng boot as well. It needs to be activated, to transfer over with eng boot. It's very sensitive and needs needs needs to be accurate for WiFi calling to work.

It's different for everyone don't ask me why-I don't understand.

They're out there because I read and wrote the tuts based off of what I read. You won't find the tuts I created because they were taken down a while back. IDK what you need help with but ask away.

No sir. Nothing Samsung... security is too tight.

[MENTION=4265316]slapman[/MENTION] if you want to send me ss of every menu and it's contents in BHB27 Kernels App..then I'd be able to tell you what to use for either a performance profile or battery; which I'm sure you need. I don't have access to that app using this particular phone. <<This is why I need screenshots.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] slapman:
Hi godpowerr I've included the ss like you asked I only hope I did it correctly. Thanks for your help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] :
That rooting these devices is a hassle, and Samsung is trying their hardest to shut us out and stop rooting from happening, and Sprint has found ways to try and stop it too (chameleon package being an example of that). I just feel like it's an endless battle that stops being worth fighting, as the root solution is never permanent, and we won't have one till someone unlocks the bootloader (if that day ever comes). That's the main reason I'm probably picking up a Exynos S8 and switching to T-Mobile, as very few unlocked bootloader phones support US CDMA.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] OGSlayah:
can someone confirm if this root method will still work on the QH1 update?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
Now I see what you were saying. This is exactly why I want to get away from Samsung...Eng boot roots. To be honest like you said it is only going to get more complex and unstable. Though with these feelings, I also feel they are above a lot of companies when it comes to quality.

In actuality, I have always have had cheap phones. $100 or $200 phones. These were cheap to me.. though I never got into modding/rooting.

But at the time. I decided to get a nice phone and I thought the S7 edge and the deals blah blah were perfect for me. Turns out complete opposite as we all can see.... though it brought me to & tought me too much about rooting. I feel like my name sometimes lol jk :P

My mind has expanded for Android and this device I have to say... gave me the most benefit. This is why I stick with the community. If other than the battery/slipperyness of device, I loved this phone and would of stuck with it to the end.

[MENTION=8447964]OGSlayah[/MENTION] Can you do me a favor and give me the build.prop, CSCVersion.txt, & finally SW_Configuration.xml from your QH1 device's /system folder. /system/csc folder as well.

You don't need to be rooted to copy to ext sd or wherever. If you could PM me those files then I can create a zip from there and have testers willing to try. Faster you send it to me..the faster you will have the answer to your question. Faster I can update thread.

I know I said I wouldn't support this thread... but this isn't the context I am talking about. So far the constant updates have obliged to the same root techniques we've been using... therefore if I receive these files I am requesting(as I don't have the device) for QH1 as you've stated:

I can create a zip and hopefully(most likely) the root process will remain the same as well as the disabled packages already linked without me having to do any leg work. Sooooo let's get this going or anyone with QH1 files please upload...thanks.

[MENTION=4265316]slapman[/MENTION] here is my input for BHB27 KERNEL ADIUTOR APP SETTINGS. I can not provide 100% reliability because app/user differences. This is just a recomendation for you and to apply accordingly; per battery. Trial & Error is best... and most imporantly observation of frequencies. . All of these images are the ones you've provided in your previous post. I have only zipped the images that contain importance, settings tab not being one.

I hope this helps and just research more because I am not always here to help you and I am not sure of certain settings.

BHB27 GUIDE.ZIP (IMAGES)

Also I have seen better performance in battery saving by not flashing or installing govtuner. As I've said it all depends on how many apps you have installed, apps that are constantly running, and the ability to control them. All this is possible if you're (generally) willing to read and obtain the knowledge, like myself, and have a fast battery saving phone. Please reply with you results after applying these settings & we can go from there!

hey so im currently rooted on the QH1 firmware using this root method and everything seems to be working fine. I would just like to know if im able to downgrade back to the QG1 firmware and reroot using this method while still being able to keep everything thats on my phone? i think i heard that if youre downgrading firmwares, your phone will reset but im not completely sure on that. if i set CSC in odin to HOME CSC will everything on my phone stay the way it is or no?

Thanks up and running now. So the main post is a little confusing. Should we just be using Speed up swap and not the other kernels/govtuners now?

Also, I can't seem to remove my samsung account. It keeps telling my session expired. (I know the instructions say turn off auto sync, but I'd like to keep the gmail stuff syncing).

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] eldervamp17:
I don't use the Speed Up Swap base on my phone usage. L-Speed works better for me. For the Samsung expire session issue. You need to update the Samsung Account application on your phone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] Blootie:
Did you first downgrade to QF3 and then manually update to QG1 and then flash "Engineer Boot" file? Or did you just flash the "Engineer Boot" file straight from QK1?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] jtash01:
QJ3 is binary 5, not binary 4, so I doubt it. I have heard that if you install QJ3 it will lock out earlier firmwares. This binary upgrade did not occur with U firmware QJ5, it is still binary 4.

Haven't checked your thread in a while... Is this similar for U?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] jtash01:
Hi! Since the P lock in binary 5 showed up I have been looking at all the firmwares on U and P that have been rootable:

G935UUEU4BQJ5_G935UOYM4BQJ5_SPR

G935UUEU4BQH3_G935UOYM4BQH3_SPR

G935UUEU4BQE2_G935UOYM4BQE2_SPR

G935UUEU4BQF3_G935UOYM4BQF3_SPR

G935UUEU4BQD2_G935UOYM4BQD2_SPR

All of the rootable U firmwares that are binary 4, there is a "4" in the firmware name 2 characters to the left of the Qxx. That's why I conclude that that number indicates the binary version. I haven't seen a discription of that in my searching, but maybe I missed that it's already known how to tell the binary number.

This is the same for all the P firmwares that are rootable with the current eng boot image that [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION], you, and I have been posting.

The new P firmware that people have been having trouble rooting (G935PVPU5BQJ3) has a 5 in that position of the firmware name.

So my guess is that as long as we don't ODIN a firmware with a 5 and stick to the ones that have a 4, the root should work. I sent a PM to [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] a couple of days ago to see if he knew if anyone had a new eng boot image that works with binary 5. I would imagine that sooner rather than later the U firmware will also be upgraded to binary 5.

If that is the case, it may be worth posting this to the community. What do you think?

Suggestions for update to the original post in this thread

1. It doesn't mention using package disabler pro and importing that QG1rootfix.xml into it before starting the root. I'm pretty sure not making sure to do this the first time is what caused me to lose voice and text.... then I lost data trying to use the special ## code to reactivate lol... boy was that stressful.

(I've been away from the rooting scene for a while, though I've been here for years first in the windows mobile and then many HTC android years, and have avoided it with this phone even though I have had it since launch because it seemed like a huge pain in the ass. Boy was I right lol. I just lost about 12 hours trying frantically to get voice and text back. Got everything working with root now though.)

2.. Anyone on binary 5 (so basically anyone coming in from here on out) will not be able to flash the binary 4 stock roms in the original post.

Luckily I saw people talking about the bin versions googled "sprint s7 edge binary 5" and it lead me to the promised land this thread

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=74672517&postcount=4

to get my phone back working stock.

P.S.

Then I said... well **** I've spent this long on this and I know I've got some rom's that will get me back to stock if things hit the fan now... so lets go for root

after figuring out the package disabler pro stuff from point one I've got voice , text, data and everything else with root.

Just thought I would share in case it saves someone else the trouble I had to go through.

Thanks for the awesome work man been waiting for a root for 2 years now lol.

Glad I could get it figured out after the initial drama

Ty for that input. And according to [MENTION=8443489]eldervamp17[/MENTION] binary (5) works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
UPDATED METHOD/THREAD

[MENTION=460446]williscool[/MENTION]

I haven't had this phone in months.

Currently I have the S9+ and no longer can work on this device physically.

I can't verify what works and what doesn't... this is why I stopped updating the thread.

Though I redid the thread and updated links/zips to version (RA1).

SuperSU[2.82]RA1+WiFiCalling.zip

There is no build.prop in the push_system folder because like I said...don't have the device.

So the build.prop strings in the OP would need to be applied before running root.bat from the zip.

Any testers that can verify/test this zip for me & upload their build.prop to apply to zip? This would be appreciated...don't want to give out false methods.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] godpowerrr:
[MENTION=4232770]mikeb143777[/MENTION]

Can you upload your build.prop and Link me? The build.prop needs to be edited after eng boot and before running the zip.

I was told that this version was rootable. If anyone can verify the last version that is, I'll change the op if infact this binary is incapable of achieving root.
