[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] :
all we need is the bootloader i have the kernel on my computer right now along with the platform. its over 100 mb to download the zip file though. But it will be hard for them to give us the bootloader files because it is proprietary.

Good try but the exploits are patched. Can you adb SuperSU and BusyBox and run SuperSU.. see if it will embeds?

This is what I am thinking.. but push all instead of zip

Actually I forgot about that, yes I can push all files and even chmod them I had a hard time with Ubuntu reading phone in download mode gonna try droid explorer but I spaced it thanks for the reminder

And guys the bootloader only needs unlocked if we want custom rom/recovery. Personally I just want root, that doesn't require any boot loader unlocked

here is an article that can help you guys wrap your head around bootloader manipulation and what its going to require ..

http://hexdetective.blogspot.com.es/2017/02/exploiting-android-s-boot-getting.html?m=1

this will also answer your question regarding the use of the anyway box and jig Bobby ..

as far as pushing files to the device ...even if you push apps that manage root they can't do anything unless you first rooted the phone and injected the correct su binaries ..then its just another root app asking you foe the root you don't have

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] roberto53431:
Now Correct me if i am wrong but t flash tries to flash the partion you load onto the sdcard inside phone .

Reason i say this is because i tried using t flash like bobbyp1086 and it says success but no change in phone at all.

Also Notice knox is unaffected still 0x00 which if it did flash should be 0x01 something like that .

So i think it is flashing the stuff on sdcard instead on the phone which is why it says success .

Again if wrong correct me please just the way i understand it.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] bobbyp1086:
my sdcard was unaffected tho, didn't lose a thing....i am backing up for another run and see if i take the sdcard out and uncheck t flash, you maybe right tho

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] bobbyp1086:
Not with out a eng boot, if I'm right about that. There is a adb command to weaken androids defenses, so to say, I've had to use to root other phones. Once I find that command ima try it and tonight I'm free so I'm trying a manual root using kali linux
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] roberto53431:
well even with eng boot you cant root since the way using the other phone like j320a only work because phone on 6.0

j327t on the other hand is 7.0 so even if you get eng boot wont be able to root
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] bobbyp1086:
I'm gonna go on a limb, and say its prolly not gonna happen for awhile. I mean last I checked, 2 weeks ago, this model wasn't even on the Samsung site
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] luisypica:
But with engboot you can have a shell root, for unlock and repair and bypass FRP, this is not full root but you can solve some common troubles and is more than nothing.

In this state are some AT&T phones and S8 and S8+, in last thanks to engboot I could unlock it(Sprint one).

So, at least engboot will be apreciatte....
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] roberto53431:
luisypica ok so from what i understand there engboot (comes from combinations for samsung phones ) Then theres eng root (Which comes from engineering frimware ) Real hard to get.

Anyways Engboot give you se permissive linux and adb access no root hence why people use it to root models like j320a or j120 on 6.0

Then theres Engroot that give you root access like on s7 or edge or s8 and s8 plus but on newer model like s8 and s8 plus samsung does not allow root access without full frimware flash hence why you you flash s8 and s8 plus only give adb and At Commands access which is why you can do frp and unlock but no root shell access

Most Engroot does not work on newer phones samsung block root access by flash only boot.img you have to have whole eng frimware which many wont give or have .

So yes engboot wont work but eng frimware might but no one has or wants to share

One idea, we all pick a different phone with unlocked bootloader. Then never buy a Samsung again. Should teach them a lesson!

I'm gonna be pretty upset if we don't get Oreo either:(
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] :
all LG phones sold by metropcs currently are bootloader unlockable via fastboot. all you have to do for those phones is enable oem unlocking in developer options and then boot into fastboot and do the command "fastboot oem unlock" Why can't Samsung do something like this? it would be much more simple.

Right so I just had an idea so you know how if you take an iPhone into a Apple store that is iCloud locked and have proof of purchase 90% of the time they unlock it right so what if we did something similar but like on eBay or something I make a fake post or someone else does I buy the fake post eBay gives me a receipt and I show that to the rep is there anyway for the store rep to unlock it you think?

It wouldnt happen. A rep cant do it. If you send it in to samsung they can fix it. Just call them and explain what happend. Be warned it will take a few weeks to get your phone back.

it should i looked it up. also if it does fail just reflash the j327t or t1 stock firmware. i doubt we would have an issue with this firmware as it is just an unlocked firmware from samsung that will let you connect to any carrier you choose. if this works i think we may have found a solution to locked bootloaders on most samsung devices

i think he might and i have the rom right now it is the exact same as our firmware except with oem_unlock_supported in the build.prop and i can confirm that people who own the actual device has root and further confirmation that the bootloader is unlocked. if this method works i will post a new official guide and include you guys. but first we must do 3 stages of testing. stage 1: will it flash and boot with no errors or crashes? stage 2: can we flash cf autoroot successfully? stage 3: Does it screw up connecting to the cellular network? if it passes all 3 thread will be made with credit given to everyone who helped out with this long lasting and very tiresome project.

HeHehe aint lying. I got 3 of then for the price it cost to replace a screen on my old S4 which I'm now using because 1gb of ram reminds me of windows 95 and AOL. The cool thing is there's not much bloatware to remove because it can't run it. I'm hoping someone gets a root method soon because hopefully virtual ram will give it a purpose. Murica!!! They got that **** locked up so as they can control your mind what with media control and all that. There's two system apps pre-instsalled to install Facebook and control every. Both have Android Get Task - Real Android Super Get Task. It's pretty cool how Android is developed in the republic and manufactured in Bejing or Korea or anywhere that they are just as happy to spy on us too. It's for our protection though. You never know who a terrorist is going to be. Maybe one of our moms or little sister or someone just crazy enough to not believe that making us vulnerable is not protecting us.

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] androodius:
They keep updating the word terrorist so to be sure that it is effective only for not then. "Onespeak" if they are trying to use 1984 as a manual. They last update was to exclude "authorized personnel" which made 0 since because nobody authorizes anyone to blow them up. The latest update is now defined by its original use (so they say) by a Frenchman in the American revolution when he said 'look at those terrorists' so means anyone fighting against democracy or liberty. They'll have to update it again when they realize Murica is not a democracy.

I had frp on my J3 prime and I flashed the combination file & booted it then went into the settings and added a Samsung account.

Then I just installed the stock rom and my frp was removed. I have been trying for 3 days to remove it, and I finally got it. I created an account just so I could reply to this and let everyone know 😊
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers] Zz3n1x:
I didn’t quote this in my first post but I used this guide. I don’t have gcprokey, but I wanted to try this anyways. I flashed the combination file and then repacked the stock rom without the sboot.img & boot.img & flashed it, but once it turned on it wouldn’t go past the MetroPCS screen when booted. So I flashed the combination again and booted it up, then went into the settings and added a Samsung account & google account & screenlock. Then I flashed the j327T1 stock rom & there was no frp, it asked for my Samsung account and then went through.

I had to search for the combination file and I tried to post the link, but I can’t since I’m new. It’s on androidfilehost if you go to the site add
