[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] would I be able to successfully unroot if I was to run the following commands and then flash to stock BL?

adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system

adb shell mount -o rw,remount rootfs /

adb shell rm /data/su.img >NUL

adb reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] stang5litre:
BL doesn't contain stock kernel. Kernel comes from AP.

Thanks for your response. So, is there a way that I can achieve what I'm trying to? Root Oreo, restore titanium then flash stock AP without losing data and be unrooted, along with running the adb commands? Keeping samsung pay and passing safetynet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] axel06:
Thanks

[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] While I appreciate all your hard work, etc., for me the lag, the battery and then this copy/ paste bug did me in. I have gone back to factory firmware & running the S7 just fine - even though I miss the root, etc.

Thank you again to everybody working hard on getting us back to the S5 & earlier days...hope you guys find the magic wand!

This is already fixed. Give people time to do stuff we all have jobs and lives that we have to tend to 1st then we do this on the side for free by the way. [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION], [MENTION=4168602]klabit87[/MENTION] , and myself have been working on Oreo and making adjustments / fixes each day. Not to mention the folks that test for us as well. If you have issues with battery atm use my N Rom with Jr unrooted feature until we have more time and fw is released to fix the battery. I have already made a custom Rom for O but we are testing things and making things better and fixing what they have messed up.

I think setting the swappiness to "1" is a little bit better and it should fix the lagging on start-up once the device turned on
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Archangel:
What do you mean by setting the swappiness?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
Every app that changes the value stops at 10 so I just set the script value to that. You can change it to what ever you want but to be safe I'm leaving it at 10. I don't know if one would have any adverse effects but just leaning on what most apps use. Figured there must be a reason
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
In the su.d there is a script that changes swappiness value in virtual memory. Stock value is 40 I set it to 10
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
If you used v10 in OP it tells you data wipe is required. If you use v11 I posted a few days ago it does not need data wipe. I have not added to OP because not one person has taken the time to tell me if copy and paste is fixed. A lot of people complained but no one seems to have tested yet

Root Undetected on Nougat

I used the directions in the OP, the only error I get is "SuperSU Root Undetected"

Samsung S7 Edge, SM-G935V

Android 7.0 Nougat

SU 2.82-SR5

I used AP_SM_G935_nougat_ENG_BOOT from "S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root_V10" folder

with Odin, everything went OK, and passed

ran "root.bat". no errors, I got all the icons SuperSU, SEFix and Fastboot etc and hit SuperSU and got

"SuperSU Root Undetected"

I reflashed few times with same error Root undetected

then I tried flashing AP_SM_G935_OREO_ENG_BOOT from the "S7_Oreo_Su_Binary_Only_ADB_Root" folder

and everything went fine, no errors,

on the screeen I see only SuperSU 2.82-SR5 and hit and get error

again "SuperSU Root Undetected"

is there anything I am doing wrong?

[MENTION=4840281]stang5litre[/MENTION], [MENTION=4168602]klabit87[/MENTION], [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION], have you some kernel tweaks?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] klabit87:
I haven't had time to mess with anything in the past couple of weeks.

But I plan to look into it. The eng kernel is a bit worse on Oreo than on nougat.

Please could you provide a standalone script of what the seFix app does?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Maxissc:
This is only root, for oreo and nougat.

If you want to update to oreo you must flash it with odin, then root with this method
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Archangel:
Just one question,,,if I use this on my S7 flat then I would flash theBL_G930TUVU4CRF1 that came in the _tmb zip folder after extracting correct? I have [ALL_CARRIERS_CRF1][Stock_Oreo_Hybrid][Safestrap_Preinstalled] installed and its running great save for the heat and lag issues. So since I have this already running just simply boot into download mode and flash just this one file and then reboot and boom no more lag or heat issues?

Okay I went for broke and flashed it LOL lets hope this works

On boot I already noticed a great increase in boot time and almost no lag,,,this is great, phone feels like stock,,,thanks for this!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
Terminal would be initiating a file in system/bin folder not the init.d or su.d. those scripts would have already ran before you would ever open a terminal window. But your fine with init.d just don't have scripts in both doing same thing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] TheDevelopper:
Yes, I know the both are doing the same thing, the current script that I'm using right now is "KITANA" and it's in system/bin, once typed su -c KITANA in terminal it checks if the device is rooted and busybox and init.d support, if it's it will be executed and extract too many scripts that will be pushed automatically in system/init.d, and also some build.prop tweaks, I can push manually the extracted scripts in system/su.d but without any control from terminal, it will push duplicated scripts
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] joedp2:
Thanks. I figured that out the hard way! I flashed the Oreo file and got a boot loop. Luckily, I was able to flash back a Nougat file and fix it. I then rerooted with this method using the Nougat file.

I'm probably going to do the update to Oreo tonight and then root it this way.

Would I be able to install TWRP on my SM 930P after rooting as per jkruse?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] KillerClaw321:
No, because you would need an unlocked bootloader. It is not possible at this point and time to unlock the bootloader of the snapdragon variants in the US at least.

I just rooted my S7 phone (SM-G930U, CSC XAS) after installing the latest oreo update. Overall, it's working except that I always get the "Sprint OMADM Checking device status...". I got this before with the stock firmware, but it would disappear after several minutes. Now, it's on constantly, and I don't know how to get rid of it. It may not be serious, but it is a nuisance. Does this have anything to do with the lag issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] TheDevelopper:
Reflash the stock firmware again, and make sure to setup your phone once booted and enter your Google account

Did anyone successfully get xposed installed without being forced to reset?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Misslys9:
so quick update I have had no problems really with version 10. I've rerooted multiple times bc I was having issues but turned out to be my flex battery cable but I was confident after rerooting multiple times it was not the root. I thought I updated my results from v6 and v10 both of which were smooth sailing also. I use no tweaks and interactive tweaks it depends on what i feel like when I root but both work well. initially v6 no tweaks was better but on v10 both were good. this is using crf1 att tmobile rom.

If your on one of jrkruse's roms with safestrap you can jump in to safestrap and wipe davik cache. I also did it once by going to recovery then do a graphics test which pulled a screen up deleting when it gets close to being done deleting hold buttons to go download mode when screen blacks out quickly hold buttons to go back to recovery wipe cache reboot system

I missed it if this question has already been posted

Quick story: I had an anxiety attack, and my pixel turned to paper in my hands. My partner had a S7 she got from United Wireless (SM-G930R7), and I used it to replace the broken phone. I called Verizon because the device wasn't functional. Turns out that this phone is factory programed with with the MMSC server for united wireless, and won't let me edit APN, or network operators. I talked to a lvl2 tech at verizon, and he all but told me that I need to root my phone, or buy a new one. So, here I am with a rooted phone, and still none of the options I need.

I haven't rooted since OG moto droid, and have found lots of ways around having to do it, like not buying left handed phones with a tonne of bloatware. Still, you take what you can get. Now I would very much like access to APN settings, and no stock bloat.

So, my question is where do I get some images to flash onto this phone that will make it a little more desirable, and so I can put in the APN info to use it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] SamGuy2020:
Basically, you need to flash "csc" you either need Verizion (VZW) CSC or XAA. Look up om google "xda galaxy s7 csc selection" and a bunch of csc forums will pop up but you'll have to determine which one is right for you

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Goddoll:
Is it seriously 2.2Gb file?

So, I downloaded the whole thing, and just sent over the CSC_VZW file, now it's just showing "Samsung" fading in and out. It's taking forever.

Same thing with HOME_CSC_VZW.

CSC_ACG, and HOME_CSC_ACG both do not fix. It boots to black screen. I'm going to give this a break, and hopefully there's a better solution than mine, which is to wipe the phone, and totally restore to factory, then reroot with the method in this thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] SamGuy2020:
Yeah its big remember its an operating system and your phone is a computer

it can like 5-20 first boot

Maybe factory reset/wipe data in recovery menu

You can root again later to debloat it aka make it smaller basically carrier bloatware but be careful cuz of carrier features like VoWiFi and VoLTE ect. Also if you have unlimited data plan can use root to mobile hotspot teather without using verizons 10gb only limit
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Goddoll:
It keeps failing. Should I repartition?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] SamGuy2020:
Is it failing in Odin? Gotta use correct odin? Or its just not booting up after passing odin successfully? The OP'er has another thread, a ROM and detailed guide with alll files needed including modded odin. It is for all carriers and you select your carrier during install also it uses Verizon PIT file (partition) which you will add in odin separately from BL, AP, CP and CSC slots on a another tab called "PIT"

You seem like a quick study whatever you decide I'm sure you'll figure it out today

Thanks!

Super Awesome Fantastic Experience!

I'm still downloading the all carriers files, but I got impatient, and decided to just try the PrinceComsy Odin distribution to totally install the stock VZW image. I come back, and I got the sign in screen, with the 4G up in the corner. My phone works, and that's all I need, but I'm still going to root it to get rid of stock apps, like Facebook... Those bastards need to give me something besides a bloated, phone killing app, that does everything a wrapper app can do besides give you a way to let your drug dealer call you...

Anywho, thank you for your guidance. It's good to have a functional phone. I hope something awesome happens for you, and OP, because people who help people out deserve the 1up.

Cheers ^_^..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Misslys9:
that is because you have to flash all the firmware like 4 files. this isnt the right thread for it in fact search crf1 hybrid oreo rom by jkruse also and you will find files directions and probably figure out where you went wrong. u firmware is great too but youll need to flash a full odin firmware using bl ap cp and csc not csc home bc you will have to wipe all data and cant just use home unless you like problems as i learned last year. to clarify I mean if you are switching firmware versions and heads up the bootloader number is 4 for most networks it is the 5th character back from the end of the firmware I believe or there abouts youll see the 4 in at least att and u firmware

darkscreen of death

op ok so earlier i had this lashed and everything was working great no issues really at all. so then i flashed the volte icon fix using flashfire and it took seemed everything was fine. well afterwards i started to notice a small lag where my screen wouldnt turn on after a sec or 2 after hitting the power button. but this is to be expected for there to be bugs. so i had bluetooth connected and was in a phone call my bluetooth got disconnected and i couldnt use my screen at all. so i figured ok ill just reboot and disconnect bluetooth. holding the power button i for a while didnt turn it off. so i used the download mode combo to turn it off at least and try to reboot. well since then ive pretty much had dark screen. now hrs later after flashing and using odin ive managed to fflash the stock official oreo build and now the only time i can see my screen is when the battery completely dead showing it to need to be plugged in pops up but ive noticed ts a little dimmer then t shout be. and when i plug it in to chrage with the devices powered off it wil show the charging icon for half a second and dissapears. guys ive got full functonality even touch screen still works but im in the dark any ideas?

sorry i forgot to mention i a have a sm-g935v from the states.
