My understanding, with any newer Samsung with locked bootloader, using Fastboot will not work. the only program that can be used is ODIN. which does access ODIN ( download ) mode.

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] MillieBaby:
would it be possible to flash something in odin to unlock bootloader and to disable verified boot check?

---------- Post added at 02:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 AM ----------

if we can at least disable the verified boot we should be able to get root access and from there we can begin unlocking the bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] acr123:
I believe people have been working on using ODIN to flash a pre-rooted system image specific to a given phone, even with a locked bootloader, to at least get root. Then, as you said are attacking unlocking the bootloader so you can load a custom recover, etc

Try my method here I succeeded in downgrading to Nougat on the J327T1. Might be possible to TWRP and Root.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] blas4me:
I managed to pull default.prop from my sm-t327t device, and it seems that oem, security verify, and other secure options can be changed to 0, which will turn off those options, and give us a chance to enable oem unlock options, and that should give us the option to root. If someone on the forum have the tools to unpack the latest stock firmware, and repack with modified default.buildprop, then we could obtain root. I tried pushing it back to device, but as you should know, I get " system is read only ". But it can be done imo.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] ashyx:

Yeh! I took a quick look. Is there a timeline that I missed? There was a thread about unlocking the bootloader? That would be a step to rooting this phone?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] blas4me:
This only bypasses FRP, thought the topic was about gaining root access to the device. The information is useful, I don't see where it applies here though, unless it magically gives you oem unlock options.

---------- Post added at 06:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:21 AM ----------

Because it's in development, doesn't mean the device will get it, this device is only a 16Gb model, and if they do manage to push out Oreo, it'll be a scaled down version, with more security features than anything. Samsung doesn't give good news, only more lockdown and control of their devices. This device doesn't even support NFC, or IR remote capabilities, and neither does the S8.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] :
android oreo won't take up half the storage space. android nougat which came with the device only used just a little over 6gb which leaves you with 10gb before any apps are installed or updated. and well you never know what will happen with the update. we will wait and see. plus if tmobile posts something like that it is like an official announcement. tmobile would never put up a device to get updated if they couldn't. i even had samsungs support specialists confirm it would come out in spring. Oh and btw they have an option where you can video chat with support specialists if you have the samsung + app installed and updated. I spoke with a guy who clearly was from america which surprised me and he clearly knew something about bootloaders and root access. he stated that samsung tells all their support reps cannot encourage rooting devices.

FRP Locked on Nougat 7.0? This WILL help

SOLELY FOR USERS WHO HAVE FORGOTTEN THEIR GOOGLE PASSWORD & CANNOT ACCESS THEIR DEVICE AFTER RESET

I'm unsure if this is posted elsewhere on XDA. In the off-chance it isn't, here is how to regain access of your device if you are Google Locked & are unable to login to your account.

Follow these steps IN order:

• Boot device to Welcome screen

• Connect to Wifi

• Navigate with Accessibility Mode to the Help section (I will not tell you how to get there)

• On the Help screen, select Android Switch Access & click the YouTube video. When the video opens, click the top of the video & it will open the YouTube app

• In YouTube, navigate to where the profile icon is in the top right corner & click to open

• Tap the 3 dots in top right corner & proceed to Terms & Policy tab

• Open either browser app (Do NOT accept app update)

• Now browse for Quick Shortcut Maker .apk & proceed to download/install

• Open QSM & open your Calculator from within the app

• Input the following into your calculator:

(+30012012732+

*#0808#*

DM+ACP+ADB

REBOOT DEVICE

• Once device reboots, stat on the Welcome Screen

• Download & extract the attached ADB-FRP.zip to your computer

• Connect device to computer & check for solid adb connection (allow connection on phone when prompted)

• Run FRP.bat with Administrative Rights

• Once .bat is completed, click any button to close terminal prompt

• Reboot device > Navigate to Settings > Factory Reset

What OS & firmware are you running? I no longer have the phone, just unlocked it for a buddy. I'm sure I can help though
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] ☆KØŁØЯΛĐØ☆:
Did you disable any Administrative apps? That would be your most likely cause as they can prevent 3rd party apps installations.

You could also try this method. I'm not sure if your device has this setting but on some Nougat devices, you can go to Settings > App Notifications > Advanced. From there you should see a secondary Install Unknown Source tab you can enter. Again, I'm not sure of your device settings bc I dont have the phone but those 2 options I would try for your specific dilemma.

All else fails, flash stock firmware & see if it enables

UPDATE:

Go to

Settings > Apps > Special Access > Install Unknown Sources

& select whichever browser app you are using. Attached screenshots are of my rooted Galaxy J7 Refine, running Oreo 8.0. Had to manually check the secondary path on my phone in order to tell you where to look on yours.

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] ashyx:
It's quite clear what the issue is with this device. Simply a locked bootloader.

No amount of ADB fiddling is going to bypass a locked bootloader.

The only way we managed to get root on this device was with engineering firmware.

Also not sure what you're referring to by a block in the device tree?

Why am I double posting?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] Casper Young:
Hey, Granny? I am a BabyBoomer. Step off your high horse for a minute and come down here so you can talk to one of the retards of the Androids. Now that I hopefully got a laugh out of you, consider this. It's not like I've lived on some other planet devoid of electronical devices. Here on Earth the current mobile phones have a lot of similarities to the TVs, radios and even VCRs from the 80's. So let's consider how all those were designed and I'll point something out to you. Compare how mobile phones are and then take a look inside your TV and tell me "hardware-wise" how they're different besides being obviously smaller. Maybe in some aspects they are a bit different but in general they are built in the same way. So, in turn that means everyone here at XDA isn't doing anything other than decorating a tree, so to speak. You'd think everyone was creating something new but they're not. They are just adding to something, building it up. I'd like to see someone seperate the Modem from the rest of the phones operations. Then this whole idea behind what XDA developers do will really take off won't it? You may wish to question my unorthodox ways but try to give me some credit here. I think outside the box and you all are stuck within that box. What you think is impossible I do not. I did my time at writing code. I did some time at ripping apart TVs VCRs and radios also. So let me tell you I have a fairly good idea of how all of this works. I don't see the limitations that you speak of as actual limitations. You restrict yourself when a lot more is possible. You're at least polite and I'm beginning to like you. I'll get back to you on this.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] ashyx:
Well maybe I should give you credit for determination. Sometimes a never say never attitude is what moves things forward.

Your attitude is somewhat similar to mine as far as determination goes.

I myself used to repair audio visual stuff as a hobby from the age of about 12 and became fairly accomplished by my 20's after reading practically every book in the library on audio/video repair.

Taught myself how to read schematics and use equipment such as oscilloscopes and logic probes.

However modern day pcb's are not really meant to be repaired with most components now being surface mount and getting smaller so don't dabble like I used to.

I guess I will watch this space, but I must ask what is your goal, as we've already accomplished root?
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] Casper Young:
The more things change, the more they remain the same.

Rooting a device is just the begining as you may be aware of. And no-one has built any Custom ROMs for the J327 that I can find at this time. A decade ago we used to flash a radio, kernel and GAPPS package into the devices. A lot has changed since then. Bricking is almost a thing of the past. because of Odin3. ADKs and JDKs are now created on Android Studio. And it's about time I learn how to use Android Studio which appears incredibly complex to some-one that absolutely hates writing binary codes. Whoever it was that said you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Was obvioulsy never an old dog. And the tricks? They're not new, they're just smaller!

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussio] noidodroid:
While this sounds good and all I do not see what you mean by separate the modem from the rest? The modem actually is within a whole other operating system of Android. Yes android has 2! operating systems actually. You can call this other RIL. In my line of work we often work on the modem for unlocks, repairs etc. A for effort but as far as just separating the CP files from the rest there wont be much else able to be completed. The CP (Modem) is already separate in a 4 file firmware package. It is actually though various blocks such as modemst1 and modemst2 along with another. They also do not contain the juicy info such as the IMEI etc but still need to be treated with care. Yeah make sure you never send them out with your EDL packages you make from your own phone.. Well you could but I always omit them from mine.

As for root for the J327T give me a bit here and I will have it temp rooted or a full root with Magisk working most likely. Will post back shortly! :good:

There are few ways you can root your device. Surely, each way has its own pros and cons. But as far as I know, there 2 ways you can root your device quickly.

1. Kingoroot

2. Rooting through ADB

Kingoroot, is the easiest of all rooting methods. It is basically a 'one-click' root app. But since there is no thorough checking on what truly is happening under the hood while rooting through this method, I flag it is un-safe. It does the job but personally I believe it is unsafe.

If you need any help, we all are here. But don`t forget to get knowledge from different sources on your own. Trust me, it will help you alot even when something goes wrong. Goodluck :good:

I'm in Canada and I'm using FIDO. If my service provider detects two phones with the same IMEI talking at the same time, will it ban my account? Or, will it be able to detect this at all?

I have this question because I am looking at an unlimited websurfing plan offered by FIDO, only for $7! But it is available to only a list of non-PDA/no-smartphones that are purchased from FIDO. The way it works is that FIDO has a database of permited IMEIs. Only the phones with the listed IMEI can use the unlimited plan. Devices with other IMEIs are charged pay-per-use, even the phone owner is with this unlimited web surfing plan! I'm thinking, the easiest way to go around this is to ask my friend with a normal FIDO phone for an IMEI, then change the IMEI of my Tornado to that one, and then surf unlimited! (purely theory talk, not tested yet.)

My worry now is that if both my friend's and my account will be banned. That doesn't look good.
[Networking] Jay2TheRescue:
If the network detects 2 phones with the same IMEI then it will lockout both from the network. Besides, I'm not sure about Canada, but here in the US IMEI spoofing is illegal.

-Jay
[Networking] gztanwei:
Thanks. By "here", do you mean the US or?
[Networking] cyberjak:
Yes cloning an imei nuber is illegal in pretty much all countries. why not get one of the correct phones. then since most can act as a modem over bluetooth just pair the phone and setup the manual connection. that way the imei doing the downloading is the correct phone. I do similar with mine if I want to use one of my other phones on web-n-walk without swapping sims. except now that wifirouter works I don't have to use bluetooth anymore
[Networking] Jay2TheRescue:
Yes, That's why I said "Here in the US..." I do not live in Canada, and do not know much about Canadian law, but I would assume that IMEI spoofing is illegal there as well. Whether or not its illegal the network will still lockout both devices if it detects two with the same IMEI.
