I was rooted (stock bl) and took 5.1.1 via kies. Everything is fine but no root obviously. What is best way to root now?
you dont.
CF-auto root doesn't support android 5.1.1, and ping-pong root doesn't work if your kernel is built after may 15. So I guess that you'll have to wait. (If I'm wrong please tell me, not 100% sure)

Are you on T-mobile S6/S6E? I think currently no root for S6 5.1.1 and you have to wait until dev works out.

Hey Guys,
i would like to share a new app with you. It´s called Towelroot. It roots your Device instantly.
Just go to http://towelroot.com and click on the lambda. Install it and click make it rain.
It Works!! No need for Recovery or anything else. Locked Bootloader AND Unlocked Bootloader.
My Tab Z runs the latest 4.4.2 so it works with the latest firmware.
Geohot (creator of towel root) says that it roots nearly every device. So keep on sharing.
Below i have two Screenshots for evidence.

wow!
I just can't believe!
It worked on jb4.3
Yes and also worked with my Tablet Z SGP351 4.4.2 stock Rom now Rooted
Worked for me too! I'd been planning on getting root with multiples flashes and manipulations for months but I kept postponing it... and now that 1-click hack took just a few minutes!
I've gone crazy with Xposed Modules and root apps that I'd wanted to use for ages. Next up will be finding out how to install a custom recovery; I'm used to flashing unlocked devices...
Works perfectly.. I recommend to use Superuser as su app after using this root app.
Great Stuff!
Hey it Worked! Now what's next Custom ROM?
Tablet Z SGP321 4.2.2 10.5.A.0.230
Thank-You works great ( XTZ 312 upgraded KitKat v4.4.2 via Flashtool v0.9.16.0)
If I root using this, will it void warranty?
I bought the LTE version tablet 2 weeks ago and don't want to lose warranty so soon..so, if I root using this Towelroot method, do I lose warranty as well? And I will still get/use official OTA from Sony?
If I need to, for some reason, can I un-root the tablet again and go to complete stock?
Pardon my limited knowledge, a n00b here.

I know that you loose Warranty when you unlock your bootloader. But only rooting it, is kinda difficult. I dont know exactly how the towelroot root affects the sony firmware. Maybe it wont void your warranty but maybe it will. I cant say it 100% but if you want to stay safe with your Tablet dont Root it. If you need and use what sony´s offering, keep using it without root.
So basically I never wanted to update my phone but I accidentally pressed Install Now when I was trying to open the messaging app. Now I can't root it anymore or downgrade it. Worst mistake ever for my phone :crying:
So my phone found a new update, but I don't want to update it because I want to look for a updated ROOTED rom that is later than OG7. If anyone has a odin flashable / zip flashable, PLEASE message me. I have a friend that works with android roms, he said that its something to do with the bootloader and it has to be rewritten by hand to make it rootable because of verizons bootloader, and to unlock the bootloader. PingPongRoot doesn't work anymore after the 5.1.1 update. I really hate this update. it slowed my phone down a lot. **** you verizon :crying::crying::crying:
Anyways I need a rooted rom to flash on my phone to make my phone think its signed by Samsung or Verizon and it's a new update. Please help me root my phone. I really got nothing to root it now ;-;

Sorry, it doesn't exist for the Verizon Galaxy S6. The last rooted ROM was OE2.

Have you tried updating to Marshmallow? I'm on CleanROM 1.5 android 5.0.2 OE2, and have been curious of the new android version, but at the same time do not want to lose root. Let me know if Marshmallow is worth losing root. Only advantage I see to root at this point is not having all that damn bloatware I really hate and cannot remove without root. Thanks.

I rather not update it unless
1: A root method is available
2: A rooted rom for Marshmallow is available
Just saying. upgrading to 5.1.1 unintentially (mainly because i was directly going to the messaging app but accidentally pressed install now) made me loose my root access. That's why I'm seeing if there is a rooted rom for that rom or a root method for that room.

From what I understand, it seems verizon is never going to allow it. Just look at Note 4 from verizon, it came out in 2014 and still no sign there will ever be root available for that one either. I'm even considering moving to tmo since there is root on their devices. Good luck.

Wow, I'll have to check this out. Maybe verizon SGS6 5.1.1 and later will come some day as well.
Thanks for the info :victory:

Im pretty sure cf-auto root by chainfire works with MM but you can double check his thead HERE .
My laptop is down ATM and am trying to find a no pc root method, but no luck thus far.
I tried
KingRoot (i know i know, but i tried anyway)
Galaxy s5 MM 6.0.1 (kltespr__SM-G900P)
Since there is still no root method above 5.1.1, perhaps I should make a thread for ideas on rooting the Samsung Galaxy S6 6.0.2 and higher
I was thinking of editing default.prop in the ramdisk so I can gain root access since this is what I am hearing.
ro.secure is like root without the need of ADB
ro.debugging is root but you need ADB.
And then attempt to install su and superuser
I've seen someone on 6.0.2 on root checker saying they have root their S6 but it was hard to get root. So I am guessing he edited default.prop in the ramdisk.
That's all I am thinking, might think wrong or stuck in the past, but what do you guys think on what might get root access? I actually need ideas on what can get root access to the S6

This guy you've heard has root on 6.0.2 is on the G920V right, also seems interesting, do you think you could link this image, or original posting or whatever?
If Root Checker has an option to contact the person that rooted 6.0.2, I would do it, but I can't. That's why I made the "Rooting Ideas"
Also, I have the feeling that since PC2 can be downgraded to OK7, it might have the same bootloader. So technically were not far from root for marshmallow.
You can check in root checker. Cause that's were I found someone that rooted the verizon S6

Ok, after I flash again (FLASHFIRE WORKS!, too bad it is pretty much useless now..., may have soft bricked it again XD) Working with Rooted 5.1.1, and it is quite crap... the battery life is maybe 3 hours max, and everything is SLOW!
THINGS I'VE TRIED:
Flashing 5.0.2 via Flashfire - FAIL
Flashing 5.0.2 via Flashfire, then flashing custom sboot - FAIL
SuperSU-MEing Kingroot in 5.1.1 - Kind of....*
Flashing PC2 Firmware (MM), With Everroot Enabled FAIL**
THINGS I NEED TO TRY:
Flashing Custom SU (or Custom VZW S7 SU) via FlashFire
Waiting For ROMS for the Eng-Kernal....
That Is All The Info I Have
*SuperSU works, but bootloops on reboot...
**Stuck at Screen BEFORE BOOT LOGO
(Where is says Powered By Android at the bottom)

HOLD UP! The S7 SuperSU binary!
What About In FlashFire
WIPE, FLASH PC2 (MM FIRMWARE), FLASH VZW-S7 SU BINARY, REBOOT
Maybe, Just Maybe...

It could work though
Since the verizon S7 users are in the same boat as us
I really hate lollipop. Its soooooooooo slooooooooowwwwww. So I want to see if we can try to get the S7 SU binary asap before my phone gets more slower :crying:
Tried to root 6.0.2 with Easy One-Click tool on the forum for tests and giggles. Gave me a bootloop.
Just got this phone. I did some research and couldn't find much on this build number. Is it possible to root or downgrade to a rootable version with g920VVRU4DQL1. I'd appreciate the feedback. Thanks!
Bump

you can root with a pre rooted rom on nougat, but its not full root so theres no point, so if you really want to root you have to downgrade to 5.1.1 OK7 and root on there. however if u want supersu u have to use a computer to restart. if u use kingroot you can reboot but you gonna have the ads of kingroot, and after 1 week of being rooted on 5.1.1 it becomes slow and buggy, id reccommend just stay on nougat and dont root, btw you cant really do anything with root on nougat.
