if you get /system/xbin/spritebud does not exist
what is the issue. (running version 4.4.2) - LG-F260S LG Optimus LTE 3
i've installed the .apk.
enable debugger mode
enable debugger mode on the application
turned phone off and back on
did a backup
did a restore
ran again same error
i'm a noob, go gently with the sandpaper to the arse. maybe new version not supported.

thats what im guessing, LG made a new patch in the kit kat update, i would be careful im not sure if it has a locked boot-loader and could brick it if you try other ways, just wait for an official root method.

Likewise have version 4.4.2 loaded on my F260S and tried several rooting methods with no luck. Am really hoping someone could help us with this dilemma and provide a solution

any solutions yet? specifically for v20f. as advised by a vietnamese site, I need to downgrade to v10m. Unfortunately I always get an error at 4 - 5 % of the upgrading stage and wouldn't pass that point and the connection with the fone (serial port 41, windows7) disconnects

SM-G920V need to be rooted.

My question is simple, I was researching a lot, in here and google, and I find out that several persons says that this specific model can be rooted tripping knox.
we just need to root this phone, we don't care about warranty or anything, is there a way to rooted?
baseband version is
G920VVRU4BOK7
5.1.1
I saw somebody says there is a way to return to an old android version modifying the tar file.
as I said, we just need the phone rooted, we don't care about warranty or knox.
Thanks everybody for helping us.

There's no way with your build number the last build that could be rooted was oe2.

there is no an option? always is an option. somebody know it

I noticed that too. I was wondering if anyone had tried it yet as I have a Verizon s6 Edge and saw there was a root for my device as well. Has anyone given it a try on the regular S6?

Just tried srsroot 5.1 and it doesn't work

My build no is G920VVRU4BOK7... can it will be root ???

Thanks for the advise.

I haven been waiting to root because I want to recover deleted videos. Dr Fone doesn't work on my phone because it is not rooted. Please share the link

I tried, but, as soon as I download the file my antivirus detected 5 kinds of different viruses, so I know understand why you are afraid.
Thanks for the advice.

need to root J327T1

Greetings,
Ive bought J327T1 today and i want to root my device which is on nougat.

You and countless others. Welcome to the unrootable device club.

the Sm-j327u is rootable its the same exact device as the j327t & t1 the only difference with that model is it's bootloader unlocked. the only solution i see is buying the unlocked version of the j3 prime from samsung's website. good thing about buying from samsung is the fact you can choose what company you want and theres none or less bloatware installed.
---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------
also i have the link. i recommend that everyone buys directly from samsung for now on. remember one thing if your device has sm-XXXXU (X's in place of model numbers/letters) (U=unlocked and available on all carriers.) This is the death of unlocked bootloaders on carrier specific devices. the link to the phone is: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/all-other-phones/galaxy-j3-16gb-2017--unlocked--sm-j327uzkaxaa/

Has anyone found a way to root this phone yet i have both the Tmobile and the Metro versions i'd like to have rooted

We are working on it stay tuned a new thread will be made in the guides and news section if we are successful.

Update: we are out of ideas. Until someone has an exploit we cannot root this device sorry but you will need to either buy some other device or buy the j327u directly from samsung. It is unlocked and you can flash cf autoroot no problem. The only issue is we do not have twrp for that device yet but it will be soon.

Nope, because you can't unlock the bootloader.

i have a file that might help with rooting j327t/t1

theres no method for revision 2 firmware and its impossible to downgrade. the bootloader wont allow it. samsung added a new security check in place to check versions of firmware.

Is anyone ever goona look at this in the future or is it hopeless? Because I do understand that root is available but even that is unstable.

for now its hopeless. samsung really pissed me off by patching the root method not even a month after it was made. sure performance was improved slightly but patching the bootloader is just too much. is having an unlock method too much to ask?

Really surprised me with Samsung to about this. They're normally pretty nice with OEM unlock and etc. Unfortunately this is just a phone they've licked down. They're Galaxy Note series all have root. So it really makes no sense to me why this one is so closed off.

By putting xda in the google search you limit your results to stuff in XDA - generally a good idea.
But you are already at the J7 forum, and now you know your model number.
You will find some useful guide info here, though I don't know if yours is a 700F. There will be similarities. Guides are always a good place to start!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/how-to-root-twrp-install-xposed-t3328580
I believe the next step for you is to flash TWRP because TWRP then allows you to backup your stock, and to flash ROMs.
maybe you need to start here, if the guide above didn't help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/j700t-development/recovery-galaxy-j7-sm-j700t-t1-t3560342
There are warnings in there about having stock on hand. Make sure you do.
Unfortunately I can not help you further because it talks about flashing with Odin.
But you are in the correct forum for asking questions, so go for it!
Good luck!
Asking questions and being nice to people will get you about anywhere! That's how I approach any new phone.

You don't know about N971N variants, do you? I DID SAW EVERY LISTS AND THEY ARE NOT SUPPORTED IN NORMAL WAYS! Why would I even bother asking then?????? They have Twrp but no exact workarounds for rooting it. The Base Note 10's 5g version is almost Impossible to root in a way (as I tried and used all ways in my knowledge). And About flashing, I did said it didn't helped, so it means it didn't! Like, the Volatile memory of my Note 10 5g(which is usually not affected by flashing) is corrupted due to wrong file flashings. Now The issue is, there is no network. Even flashing original roms numerous times doesn't help. Rooting via TWRP is also baseless, since even after multiple tries of rooting it by flashing SuperSu or Magisk modded Roms. It just doesn't work.

I have lineageOS installed on my n10 (no network) as I only use it for gaming
I have reflashed stock ROM for my device many times as a developer asked me to test ROMs for N971N (as we speak)
I understand your frustration, but this is xda if you don't explain your problems well nobody will help you (and need I remind you that every ROM(s) out there for the note ten variant did not mention N971N)

Man, I really dont speak English perfectly and am frustrated! Cz you know , this N971N is such a mess. It's exynos version is so messed up and hard to root or fix. Oh btw, your one's a exynos version or sd one? Cz that might have a influence too.
Yes I also flashed lineage OS on my Note 10 had it rooted afterwards, but which didn't worked (nothing works, like, it does says its rooted but doesn't works). But after flashing Lineage OS, i saw I have no internet, and I thought maybe its my phone's problem (which, you say isn't as you have the same issue after flashing....****) so I flashed a EFS file thinking Lineage OS might have jacked my EFS (which was totally unprofessional of me) I really was so disappointed afterwards.
No no wait, I know if I don't get help from XDA then I would not be able to get help and I also know that all other roms out there didn't included d1x or N971N as their supported device! Thats exactly why I was just saying that when you asked?
Im sorry man, I didn't wanted to be rude.... actually Im Searching here and there for a long time. Shabi_Shaw and I had a talk and I also said him too. I've been on this for 1 year and I am really in need of a way to fix my phone. The only reason I need to root my note is access the EFS folder and edit it back to normal.
Wish all these mess never happened. I mean, how the hell I thought back then that rooting can Increase N971N's battery life when it's capacity's already less
