Okay, I think I understand you. You already flashed stock G930PVPU7CRG in Odin?

You are currently on G930PVPU7CRG3 but you want to root your phone?

Sorry, it does not work anymore for that version. You are stuck on stock. You will need another phone now if you want root.

Is there a way to install g935p firmware on g935p?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] SamGuy2020:
How do I say this... yes

But I think you might be trying to ask another question? If your G93XP is already in bootloader version 7 then the answer is no, you cannot change firmware to another carrier anymore sadly. Hopefully other carriers wont follow Sprints lead in the unholy endeavor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
I dont know how to make this any clearer than I have but I will try again if you are on the latest sprint firmware 7CRG3. The 7 means you are v7 bootloader which means sprint fused all your firmware including boot and recovery images meaning only stuff from v7 bootloader will flash all others will fail. You are stuck there. You cannot root your phone you cannot flash other carrier firmware including the Ufirmware. You cannot flash this rom or any of my other roms

[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION], what happens if i push the official boot.img manually to system / with right permissions then reboot, i tried to patch the engineering kernel and i pushed it to system but nothing happened but i don't know about the official boot.img, maybe this will give a bootloop, but what is going wrong with this engineering kernel that gives a lot of lags? We tried every tweak but less lag reductions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
the boot.img its signed by samsung if you modify it you loose the samsung signature and it will not boot. The eng kernel is just that an eng kernel its designed to debug things to find problems so its main focus is that and not performance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] TheDevelopper:
Thanks, you can actually make an overclocked kernel but it needs to be signed by Samsung in order to work, blame Qualcomm with its locked bootloader

You mentioned that you may have a fix for the camera not launching when you double click the home button.

Is there a fix for this or is that something for the next release?

I'm loving your ROM, the only thing I would love to see is the edge apps from the edge. I really got to liking that feature.

Found the VOLTE zip for Nougat but it did not fix anything.. Interestingly I was able to FlashFire T-mobile stock CSC file which enables VolTE switch and CoWIFI.. CoWIFI works but forcing calls to go over LTE doe not.. When LTE only is enabled with 4G Swicher app incoming calls go to voicemail and outgoing calls do not complete.. I even enabled additional LTE bands but still no luck.... Anyone has an idea how to make it work?

I used Odin to flash AP_SM_G930_NOUGAT_ENG_BOOT.tar offered from this thread.. then rooted by following the instructions here, then FlashFired HOME_CSC_TMB_G930TTMB4BRA1 to get VoLTE and CoWIFI options in the dialer properties.. My baseband version is G930PVPS5BRA1 but at some point I converted to U so now it shows SM-G930U in the Model number with build number NRD90M.G930UUES4BQG1.

Is there a step by step newbie guide to doing this? Also mainly how do you install SuperSU? I see thats its in the download file when you extract it... But the AP file you use when you use Odin to root is completely separate from all those other files/folders like the one with SuperSU in it.. soo will Odin do all that or do I have to install SuperSU manually? If so how?

In other guides the SuperSU folder had a Root file you doubleclick and it did all the work. Theres no such file in the superSU folder with this download

Compare those dirctions to these directions:

Those directions are clear and concise any would be hard for even a 3 year old to mess up. Your directions tell people what to do but now HOW to do it. Which would work perfectly fine for ppl who do this everyday and already have some idea what theyre doing. But for someone whos trying it for the first time? Id say its missing a lot. For example i=nowheer on there does it tell us how to install SuperSU
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Innieway:
I wish I could tell you, but honestly I don't know. I would think it should work with Nougat as well.

I liked Nougat a lot, but I don't regret moving to Oreo. Yes, there were some issues that took a little extra effort to overcome for a while, but jrkruse has done an incredible job of bringing us a nearly flawless Oreo rooted rom. I have the S7 Edge, but I am pretty sure his rom also has a version that would work for you. The thread which I have been following and using with my phone can be found here

I have not gone to the latest update on that thread, and prior to that it was for all carriers. I am on the CRG2 version, and am more than happy with it. I like it so much that I haven't decided whether to even try the newer one yet. If you scroll down the page of the OP you will find everything needed to go with the CRG2 version which was still available for all carriers.

I have a Sprint Galaxy s7 (SM-G930P) and your root method worked just fine for me. The trouble is I tried to install Magisk and could not boot afterwards. I fixed that using odin and the stock firmware but when I boot up again for some reason I am unable to connect to the mobile network. I know I made a mistake and it has nothing to do with you but it would be great if someone here could help me out. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
How about direction #4 it’s says to run the root.bat. You run the root.bat you have a rooted phone with supersu what more directions do you want. Would it make you feel better if I describe what a usb cable is and how to plug it into a computer. Sorry if I don’t go into detail about this kind of stuff. I guess I feel if you read through this stuff and don’t know what Odin is or adb then you really have no business messing with your phone or use google and do a little research

Ok let’s break this down

Instruction #1 Download and unzip. Do you need a detailed explanation on how to do this. There are 2 choices if your not sure what too choose I would choose the one that says recommended. The other is for developers

#2 Reboot your phone too download mode. I could see where this is confusing but if you power off your phone then press and hold the power button the volume down button and the home button all at the same time. This will get you into download mode. Ok now at this point you take your usb charger cord and plug the little end in the phone and the big end in your computer. Ok any questions so far?

#3 This is where you find the Odin folder in the zip you downloaded. Now you are going to open Odin you should see that your phone is connected. Now I can see where this is confusing. Click on the AP button in Odin and choose the eng boot.img that matches your phone. G930 is regular s7 and G935 is s7 edge. Do you need an explanation of what Oreo or nougat is? If not then click start/flash your phone will reboot

Ok we will stop here do you can ask questions. When you are clear on these we will move onto steps 4 to 8 so let me know when you are ready to continue

I was able to gain root access and appreciate the assistance to do so. Here it comes...But one of my main reasons for doing so, I know this is lame, was for using the ability to spoof in Pokemon Go. As far as I can tell or not find, is a way to disguise the fact that I am rooted. If there is a way, please tell. In the meantime it appeared I needed to go a different and more difficult route via Magisk. Next problem, before doing so I need to unroot, as I understand it, and when attempting to do so with the OP's Supersu it apparently fails because everytime I reboot and check with Root Checker Basic it congratulates me on being rooted.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Gregbmil1:
Ok, back to normal again. What I did was flash offcial Oreo firmware (CRF1) using the modded Odin provided by jrkruse and only flashed AP and BL at the same time. No Nand Erase and I did not lose any data. I do need to reroot though. What do you say? Reroot and try it again?:laugh:. Maybe Magisk this time?

I did Magisk this time and was pretty laggy even after 15 minutes, the weirdest thing happened. Magisk Manager said it was properly rooted but Busy Box was the only other app that said it was rooted. L Speed, Adaway, Flash fire, Live boot and a few more all said phone not rooted. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adaway and L Speed and got the same result. I did have a root checker say it was rooted properly though.

I then went back to SuperSU, I would have anyways though :victory:. But then I updated the binary and it worked!!
