[General Questions and Answers] juzten:
Hello,

The Galaxy S7 has multiple variants and builds. Normally when asking this kind of question, you should include the model of your device. That way anyone wanting to help you actually has the knowledge to be able to do so. Phones have different internal parts, memory space, and so on. You can find your model number by doing the following:

- slide down the notification bar, sometimes you may have to slide down twice depending on the device. Click the gear in the upper right hand corner. "Settings"

OR

- Access your app drawer or all apps section and find your "settings" section/app. Most of the time it will have a icon of a gear, or three lines that resemble on off switches. Older androids sometimes use just have three lines (as the settings icon)

- Find the section labeled "About Device / Device Info" its usually labeled something similar if not exactly. Open this section

(Galaxy phones usually have this section at the bottom of your "settings" section)

- Somewhere within this section, there will be a label that reads "Model" and that is your specific variant which is needed in device specific situations.

* Take Note of this for future reference. You might think okay ill remember that. But when you come to realize your devices model number may be XDA-2017T1 and you look for something pertaining your device. You will also find something like this:

XDA-2017

XDA-2017YP

XDA-2017YP2

XDA-2017T0

XDA-2017T2

XDA-2017T10

Assuming that you will continually update and/or customize your phone. You will probably just memorize this, along with other important information. Some important things you should include while researching is as follows (the top two are very important)

1. [Model Number] ex) XDA-2017T1

2. [Android Version] ex) 6.0.1 Marshmallow

3. [Baseband]

4. [Kernel]

5. [Chipset]

6. Is device "rooted?"

7. Is the bootloader unlocked?

8. GSM or CDMA. Older devices even use IDEN

Those are only some.

* I also want you to know that im not trying to lecture you, or give you a hard time. I am honestly trying to help you and in order to successfully help you I have to ensure that you know things, or mention things, that is important to do. So your device isnt broken, or you get information that is correct but incorrect for your specific device.

But back to the topic originally referenced.

Q) "Is the program Dr. Fone able to bypass the screen lock security measures on the Samsung Galaxy S7?"

A) Based on limited information that is device specific, and the current Supported Devices section from Dr Fones documentation

"No"

• Dr. Fone doesnt have the capabilty to bypass your screen lock. They will probably include the S7 within a period of time due to it being a main stream phone though.

• Remember this; locks can and will be broken. Just because a vulnerabilty hasnt been exposed or discovered doesnt mean that its 100% secure.

• Keep current with OTA updates, keep in tune with tech type news.

• Encryption is vast subject, but I can refer to it like the "invisible magical ink" That was popular in the 90's. The light that reveals the ink to the naked eye, is your password. The inabilty to see the ink normally without a specific tool, would be encryption. So if someone cracked your password, your encryption would also be disabled. I linked more information below, for you to read. I still dont fully understand encryption myself, nor do I believe or trust it.

I based this information assuming your device is the SM-G930. It is accurate as possible but not guaranteed. Do realize with the information I mentioned and with the question you asked. I was able to do a simple Google search and almost immediately found the answers. Try to figure things out before you ask in the future. You can repeat the process of not researching prior to posting but typically your post will die. If you get stuck and have put forth honest effort, the great people here at XDA will probably help out greatly. I hope I have helped you, and you now feel better about your concerns. please pay it foward.

If you feel ive helped or gave a honest attempt to help. Hit the thumbs up, that is the thanks button.
