Can you check the file.zip and check is fine?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
I dont know why the service script is necessary it says to end script if swappiness is zero but then you are manually setting the value to zero right below it and some scripts simply don't work on this kind of root it simply won't let them execute soon enough
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] mario6714:
This dont work in the end?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
You need to ask the person that made the script. I dont even see the need for it. It also may need full installation of busybox to run.

Hi, I did every step and didn't get any errors, plus there's a picture of a lock that says "Custom" in the boot logo, but I used Root Checker and SuperUser to see if I had root and nothing.

I have SM-G930T

If you wanna get ride of that custom splash, go to /system/apps/syscope ..delete the syscope app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
You sure you did this

click on the cmd-here.exe and type root.bat in the command window and hit enter or did you just click on the root.bat file
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] gadget!:
I did the same, followed the instructions to the letter. I even went so far as to run cmd-here as an administrator. Then I typed in root.bat.

I think for some reason it didn't install the system apps (xxx_FlashSystem.cmd).

The phone said it was rooted but any app I tried to run that required root said the it could not gain root access.

I had no SU app or ROM Control.

At your suggestion I ran the xxx_FlashSystem.cmd as a stand alone app and that solved everything.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] elesbb:
Just curious. What causes the data partition to get corrupt? It only happens AFTER running the root.bat script. I can flash the eng boot without issues, reboot and have all my data. So it only occurs when the root.bat is executed. Just curious, wondering if we could get it to keep data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] TheDevelopper:
With V10 it's fully working, but with the others, they won't let it execute as too many others scripts, that was tested with 100% results guaranteed, that's why I'm rooted with V10, he needs Busybox fully installed so he gets it working with Busybox applets installed with V10 only
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] germancx:
Yeah, followed instructions carefully and went through the whole installing process (cpu governor, safestrap, etc)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
You saying your internal storage don't work?. If you are referring to phone data this has nothing to do with data partition. I'm going to guess you are sprint if you are I don't have any answers other than read sprint thread for fixes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] billyt1:
I definitely had the issue with the phone not letting me install to internal storage. Definitely caused by me debloating the wrong thing, Which was the DefaultContainerAgent. GooglePlay will give a 501 error can't install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
Yes I'm just not clear what that guy was asking

Any body wanna try this out I got a whole lot better battery life by downloading shortcut maker finding Content Adapive Backlight (CABL), click try and jus turn it off completely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] billyt1:
Yeah I'm not 100 percent sure either. Don't one need to wipe data anyway after the root process. I know that's what I've been doing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
Not on v11 you dont
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] elesbb:
No no. Nothing is broken. Everything is fine so there isn't anything to fix.

Basically what I am asking is exactly this:

echo -----------------------------------------------------------------------
ECHO - 1 First Time Root Need To Wipe Data - [COLOR="Red"]<----------- Why is this necessary?[/COLOR]
ECHO - 2 Rerooting System Already Rooted No Need To Wipe Data -
echo -----------------------------------------------------------------------

I picked option 2 the first time I rooted, and of course it doesn't boot. However, ADB is accessible so I adb shell'd into /data directory and performed "ls" and its completely empty.

Wiping data via recovery executes the format command, so it reformats the partition. What about the root process causes the data to get corrupt resulting in a re-format being the only thing fixing it?

I had an idea:

dd the data partition to the external storage card before rooting.

Root, but don't go to recovery to wipe data, instead, reboot and re-format via ADB, then use dd to copy back the img file on the external SD card back to the /data partition. This in theory should work. I haven't tried it yet though.

But basically something about the root process causes the old /data partition to become corrupt needing a re-format. I'm just curious what causes this.

Like I said, everything works perfectly fine after wiping data from recovery. I just am curious and was diving deeper.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
You using v11 it doesn't require wiping data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] elesbb:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] TheDevelopper:
You can use Titanium backup app then delete whatever you want, but be careful, deleting system requirements apps may cause bootloops or your phone will not work properly, I used titanium backup then I deleted the following apps running on my Galaxy S7 edge SM-G935V running on U firmware:

•Samsung pay (both apps)

•Google Photos.

•Google Maps.

•Google Play Music.

•Hangout.

•Instagram.

•WhatsApp.

•Facebook (all apps).

•Smartthings all apps, but it requires to delete Nearby services app so the Gallery app will run properly.

•And more apps ...

i already have lastest busybox, and im not talking about scripting. I find strange that s7 flat doesnt have swap whereas s7 edge does. and if a s7 flat user has disabled it, how can a s7 edge user disable it too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] mario6714:
You want swap (total) = 0?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Maxissc:
yes, thats the idea. right now im using swap = 0, but i think disabling swap would be better

is it possible to force the device to use an sd card as adoptable storage with this (or any) s7 root? i understand it might/should be possible in the absence of rooting but the several methods using adb i've tried have not worked on stock.

Thanks for your work, everything works fine.

However, I have one question to which I have not found an answer in this thread. I tried to install Magisk instead of SuperSu, but without success. I need it to install the package:

from github - Magisk-Modules-Repo/SonyFramework

I installed it via FlashFire, but it did not work, apparently Magisk has some other setup scheme.

Could you help me?

Without this package, I can not install the PS4 Remote Play application, during installation it shows "The application is not installed.".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] TheDevelopper:
If you try to Flash the Magisk files through FlashFire. you will get the "Qualcomm Pink Warning Screen" which will say that your phone has been flashed with an unauthorized software then you must flash the stock firmware. If you push the Magisk files manually to system, it will not succes, so hopefully someone can develop a Magisk root method for our phones with their ^Locked Bootloaders^
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] OneOnline:
Thank you, I was already going to manually put Magisk in place of SuperSu. Well, what about the archive? It can also be installed via FlashFire. I do not really understand the installation of such archives, could you look at it? The archive inside is similar to any other zip file for installation through recovery, but it has extra files, for example readme from github and some other things, maybe for magisk. I made the installation via FlashFire, but it did not help, I still can not install the application. Maybe there is a problem with the firmware? I do not understand why the application is not installed, because other people on different phones with root is all right. There may be a way to force the application to install, for example, to make an archive from it and install it manually. Any ideas? As it seems to me, with root rights you can do everything.

On the left, patch for VOLTE from this topic, and on the right is my archive of Sony Firmware.

UPD:

I found a way to get an error message. But strangely, I installed through FlashFire everything I need. Maybe the presence of the file is prescribed somewhere else? I feel that it is already close to solving the problem, but my knowledge is not enough :(

UPD:

I realized that FlashFire is not able to flash a zip file, it just says a successful installation, and the files in the system do not appear. I will install Safestrap, maybe it will help.

UPD:

Ok, through Safestrap the files also did not appear in the right folder. What am I doing wrong? I open the folder "system \ framework" in Root Explorer and there are no files from the archive.

Sprint has changed something on the CRG1 update. When I got flash thr eng boot for s7 edge oreo it trips an efuse. I know they have the bootloader way above everyone else. I sure wasn't expecting this to happen. I got stuck with the sprint firmware by changing to it by mistake. The only way I was able to live with it was the ability to root it and now that is gone. I believe its time to throw this phone in the trash its next to useless now lol. I forgot to say this is an AT&T phone with sprint firmware.

Please, is there any way to update the su binary without causing bootloops, there're some scripts that require the binary updated to run such as changing the entropy read/write values as wanted to?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
That has nothing to to do with su binaries

And these binaries are the latest supersu binaries. The updating of binaries the app wants you to do has nothing to do with updating the su binaries. The app is just detecting the the system binary app process is not hijacked by the su binaries which we accomplish with a hijack script after booting because we don't have a permissive kernel at time of boot to allow the app process to be controlled by su so we utilize a script at boot time the sets kernel too permissive and launches the su binaries. That's why you would get a bootloop if you let the actual su app update this stuff. I had earlier su apps just update and hijack a phantom app process file to trick the su app into thinking everything was installed properly but this seemed to be causing issues of system reboots for no reasons
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] 3ofear2242:
Thank you for all of your hard work. I got on the forums not to long ago and I saw a thread about oreo root. I think i was the happiest man in the state of Oklahoma at that time lol.
