Its either Note 4 or Note Edge.
It can't be both.
But Googling your Model #, you have the Note Edge.
First time I've heard of a SM-N915W8 variant.

Please note, I have a Note 915G.
If the booader isn't locked then flash TWRP then Latest SuperSU. This got me root.

I id that initially too but after a restock found I didn't need to flash cf-autoroot to get root, just latest twrp and then latest supersu.
Why potentially brick your device if you don't need to?

There is no root currently for the AT&T SM-N915A Galaxy Note Edge. Some are working on it with the Note 4 and its thought that when the Note 4 does eventually get root, then the process can be applied to the Note Edge.
Here is the thread for the Root Progress

Wait, - correct me if Im wrong, but you only flashed TWRP and Supersu from stock?? .....and that alone gave you root without CF-Autoroot?
Is that possible?

Yep...
A lot of people have tried and found it works,not just me...
If you plan to root your phone try my way first,as long as bootloaders AREN'T locked then try CF-Autoroot if it doesn't work...
It doesn't do anything that you weren't going to do yourself(Knox will be triggered), except miss out on flashing cf-autoroot, getting an error message and having a heart attack before pulling out the battery and essentially doing what I suggested...

This still does not apply to the Verizon variant, correct?

The bootloader is locked and at this time, we do not have root. There are people working on getting root accomplished on the Note 4 (AT&T and VZW variants), that will work on the Note edge.

If it is the root method using the exploits that they are currently working on it should work as our device is vulnerable as well. However, if it is a different vulnerability that is exploited, it isn't guaranteed that the root method would work on the Edge.

Already answered question...
I gotta look at my "Repeated Quotes" more often....

As above... These 12 hour shifts are starting to take their toll...

Is there someone trying to root SM-G920V 5.0.2 G920VVRU2AOF1 ?!

I was searching through diferent threats like http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-root-tool-t3103016/post62164597#post62164597 , all informations says that pingpong root will never work on SM-G920V 5.0.2 G920VVRU2AOF1 or Lolipop 5.1.1 and no one should wait for a PingPong update cause PinPong will never be able to root them, can anybody tell me if some one is trying any other exploit about this built's ?!?!

You can root with CF auto root. This will trip Knox flag (don't know if you care).

As you told me about this method CT Auto Root ( I never heard before) , i was searching online for it and I found the website https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ , i dont know how Knox Flag will effect my Galaxy S6 , but presuming that's not a big deal , the CF Auto Root website doesn't show anything about SM-G920V , or maybe they haven't update all supported models !
Anyway thanks for replying !

auto root does NOT work on verizon or ATT variants since we have locked BL's

@1663 Tripping knox will void your warranty (unless you are in the EU it's debatable). Secondly you won't be able to use Samsung Pay.

I could care less about Samsung Pay. Wherever they accept SP they will accept Google Wallet, for the most part. I just bought mine brand new and it came with this build. I'm really regretting this device. I hope someone roots it, but it may be quite a while.

you guys dont understand lol.. vzw s6/s6e CANNOT trip knox to root the device.. it will fail EVERY time unless someone found a way to unlock the BL and didnt share with anyone.. he is stuck until a new root exploit comes out that doesnt involve custom kernels/unlocked BLs since its not possible on vzw

I was giving general information about what tripping knox does.

I could not wait for someone to root the newest version of lollipop for Verizon, just purchased a rooted phone from Swappa.com and sold my S6. That is a faster way, IMO, Instead of waiting for someone to root OF1.

Well that sucks. I was pretty sure it would work since it was universal. And unless I'm mistaken CF auto root worked on the ATT and Verizon GS4 (my previous phone).

gs4 had a root method/loki on mdk bootloader and earlier..
vzw gs5 was towelroot with safestrap..
i had both and previous galaxy phones..
the vzw gs4 was the last phone i was able to use custom kernels on.. gs5 however didnt have a tripped knox as towelroot was used and the BL was locked as it is now as well.

I know that beta just came out and people are joining. Aside from 920F I want to know if they are going to beta test other models or not and if Root is still possible.

Now that the new official MM is coming, who has been brave enough to try it and see if root works or not?

I buy samsung for the root if not...i have to go with nexus and motorolla...i think i will go with droid turbo 2 at least i will not worry about droping it on the ground who cares as long as samsung makes type this devices that cannot support Roms...they will Fail soon just like nokia failed...imagine if samsung makes unrootable device just like knox stuff....LOL shut down the factory !

Now that the official update is out, has anybody confirmed systemless root via SuperSU? My Knox isn't tripped and want to keep it that way.

Verizon S6 6.0.1 Waiting for Root....

I come here everyday hoping to one day see a root thread... Do you ever think we will get one?..

I do too but I don't think we will have root. I've already been starting to look for a replacement but haven't found anything out there that's any better and has root. I'll just stick with root on 5.0.2 for now.

I gave up on this already lol. Luckily for me all I needed root for was mobile hotspot. FoxFi took care of that :good:

I gave up root a while back for marshmallow it's pointless on this phone no xposed no TWRP the 6.0 keyboard is worth it alone

The only chance is if an unencrypted bootloader is leaked like with the s3

Hopefully we won't be left out in the cold with the Verizon S6..... Waiting patiently

I was about to give up on a possible root for Marshmellow and update to the latest OTA until I read about the S7 root. Eagerly waiting for good news for the S6.

how the heck has the s7 been rooted, but the s6 is still in the dark... This is my first smart phone without root / custom ROMs in almost 10 years and I HATE IT !

They have a rooted boot image those bastards lol

I hate Verizon. If it wasn't for their impeccable service in my area of NY, I would leave. I hate not having root and having all this junk on my phone.

The s7 is Qualcomm. Our s6 is a Samsung made SOC. Their method will not work for us anyway. Plus, it is not even a method, it is a leaked, rooted image.
Those on Verizon S6 will not see root for possibly ever seeming no devs care for this phone anymore. Really, no devs did when it did have root lol

A root would be really nice for 6.0.1. Certainly waiting but not optimistic.
Definitely no way back after updating right?

after getting Samsung pay to work. I can live without root.

Technically I think root could be possible with the dirty cow method. But would take developers like jcase or beansup to provide a safe method of doing so, due to the exploit being how it is.
