New designed root bat on the way. Systemless mode for oreo is going bye bye. It simply is not going to work properly. People having trouble with xposed I need to know before you rooted if you were on my modified stock builds with safestrap.

Magisk root saying rooted but no root permissions,not allowed went back to cre4 att firmware, also don't install a.r.i.s.e audio mod kept getting bootloops

---------- Post added at 08:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

Did u try a clean install of firmware then flash xposed,what I do is flash the zip then install the app it will say words in yellow but just takes another reboot to work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] slimcyril:
I maybe wrong but I heard a user say that magisk doesn't work on locked bootloader devices, if you're having bootloop when Arise audio mod installed in device, then backtrack to Arise versions 05062017 as their newest versions are heavily dependent on magisk root solutions, I had same issues on Nougat!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] miko12312:
Systemless magisk wont work as it needs to patch the boot but system magisk should work as a regular root app ,the modules may just not work without the patches boot img,but also from just having systemless root on my devices its looking closer there maybe a way to run it also I think it may have been a setting or not setting selinux to permissive may have caused it , never had an issue till now on mm or n with arise but oreo is different I did install music fix which may have made something not work also was on systemless root may have changed some permissions going to attempt again with system su

I also did see that the latest magisk is having issues with other devices with Same problem saying no addon.d support that to use version lower like 9

Hey guys does anyone have all the firmware files for 8.0 smg930P, for sprint to flash with odin? I had root achieved last night but i did not get cell service. I went messing around and ive soft bricked my phone and want to flash back to 8.0. Thanks in advance if anyone can hook me up, i apperciate it. Cool job on the root by the way buddy!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Gregbmil1:
I'll give it a shot, I was just about time factory reset anyways. Actually, systemless SU is working wonderfully for me, no Xposed though, which I could probably live without. The reason for the factory reset is that I flashed a debloat script and now Busy Box keeps crashing and the Play Store also. Not in the mode to figure out why, Lol. I will try the Dolby Atmos now and report back

I flashed it with Flash fire twice and it didn't seem to do anything, not even an Dolby icon. I placed the files myself in priv-app and installed the apk, tried to open the app but I keep getting a message saying Dolby Atmos has stopped working. I then changed the permissions to 0755 (I always forget about permissions). I got the same result. Im pretty sure the permissions where originally correct from looking at Dolby in the rooted S8 I have . like I said earlier that debloat script messed my phone up pretty good. I just did the reset. I have to go through the setup once again, Lol. Then I will try again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] DMon04:
I rooted using system root and updated SU binary just fine. For the VOLTE_ICON_HOTSPOT_FIX.zip do I just flash it with flashfire? Thank you for the awesome root method [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION]!

i installed xposed successfully on your modified cre5 rom before we had root. i had returned to stock cre5 which is the rom i rooted and got the verification failed message after installing xposed. btw systemless root worked fine for me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] AoNKatastrofe:
I followed the instructions as how I made sense of them: downloaded the v11 zip (and unzipped it of course), ran Odin as an admin, had phone in download mode, flashed the AP SM G935 Oreo Eng Boot tar file with Odin, ran root.bat once the flashing process had successfully finished and root.bar cmd said "device connected". Ran through root.bat: oreo, no tweaks for CPU (wasn't sure what they did so I left them alone, though my main purpose to root is to delete all bloatwoare and overall increase performance), system root (forgot the exact wording for this step), remove safestrap or no safestrap installed (my reasoning was that I wasn't rooted or done anything with this phone [stock everything] so I should go for the no safestrap installed option), your device will be rebooted into recovery mode and you have to wipe data. The instructions from the OP says to leave your phone alone for a few minutes and it may reboot a couple times for this step. I left my phone alone for a bit and it didn't do anything so I naturally wiped as root.bat said. After the wipe, I signed in to my google account and my phone started the app/settings recovery process.

Once doing all this, SuperSU, sEFix, and FlashFire have all been installed but sEfix and FlashFire say I'm not rooted and SU says Binary Occupied (which I leave alone). A root checker from the playstore app also says I'm not rooted. I'm sure I missed something if it didn't work but it should, my guesses are that I should have installed the safestrap or maybe I had to flash something else alongside the AP (Odin says something about "new model AP+ CSC + CP" etc).

I want to ask instead of running through the process again in case I end up bricking my phone and I would rather avoid another data wipe as it takes a few hours to fully recover everything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Leone/kyleproxx:
Your mistake is that you keep wiping, after everything it says you should either wipe or reboot the phone. When the phone turns off you have to manually turn phone on yourself. I also experienced the same thing after wiping (when I was able to root).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] AoNKatastrofe:
Ahhh, you're absolutely correct! I can't believe how I missed that there's another option in the menu (#1 is to reboot to recovery to wipe data or cache and #2 is to simply reboot). Now I'm rooted and apps that want root access ask for permission as they should be doing. Once again, thank you for all the help!

Well, if you're looking into an iPhone, then you don't need root.... No point complaining it's a pain to get root if you don't need it...

The devs have done an amazing job getting us this far. Yes, it's a pain, there's lots of quirks and it's annoying as heck, but..

Good luck rooting the iPhone... Or replacing the OS.. Or changing your build... :angel:

Klabit, I probably will get the S10 international variant (when it's finally released).... Assuming the unlock process will be similar, any gotchas that I should know about?

I'd probably have a friend help me buy it when they travel to one of the regions. How do they go about unlocking it when they buy it? Is it some universal code or do they have to call a number and go thru some painful verification process?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] klabit87:
Not really. The process is pretty straight forward. The only thing about the 0 or zero variant is the fact that not many people are willing to foot the bill and buy it full price.

Which also means there may not be as much development as there would be for say the exynos variant.

My thread for twrp on the snapdragon sm-n9600 (note9) is an example of how to unlock.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-9...ecovery-twrp-galaxy-note9-snapdragon-t3845536

No code and no verification process. Worse case scenario you have to wait 7 days from the time you first turn it on in order to unlock.

VZW does not fully work out of the box. Root will trip Knox and it is required to get VZW fully working.

plz send me G935P 8.0 version root file because me phone stuck in logo and restart problem plz help me.??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] DHS1:
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 - never rooted, so it's on 8.0 Oreo and the latest build - G930VVRS8CRK1.

I came here because I wanted to root my phone, I miss having my phone rooted.

But it seems like what I'm reading here is that it is impossible to do any kind of rooting on my phone? It is also impossible to downgrade it to a version that I could root?

Why are there posts like these then saying "Root for S7 on Oreo" but then when you read them, they say "Oh if you're on the latest OTA build, you're out of luck."

Is this true? Or is there something I can do to root this phone? I'd totally downgrade if necessary, would do anything. But is it really impossible? Do I need to get a new phone if I want root access on my Android operating system?

Thanks

[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] - or someone else who knows - do I have any options here? Or is there literally no way, and I have to go out and buy a new phone (probably getting the Galaxy Note 8)?

No brother sorry, there is nothing that I have heard of to give you half or partial root. You can thank Verizon/Samsung for locking this down. I have looked all over the place and there is nothing that you can do to root or get TWRP installed.

Please read the past post because your firmware does not work with root. And it won't work with root ever so there is nothing you can do to make it work. And no you cant install rom also for the reason you cant root.

Could you update this post with a list of un-rootable roms and/or the latest rootable roms? It's unreasonable to assume that anyone wanting to root their phone would read all 121 pages of this thread, so this info would be better at the beginning.

Unfortunately I flashed the latest rom then tried rooting. The only thing I'm gonna miss is automatic call recording, I'd welcome any suggestions to get that back.
