Hello all,
Does anyone know how I can root the avant that is running version G386TUVU1AOD7?
I tried towel root and that didn't work at all. It says the phone isn't supported. Not sure if I can downgrade the kernel to root it (boot.img)
I would prefer to do it without tripping Knox if possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which android version it is?
The root/recovery thread for the Avant is here. I have AOD7 installed on mine, and the process worked.
My phone has been bugging me to update and I do not want to lose my root. Can anyone confirm with me if G930W8VLU1APG1 firmware is rootable or not?
Cant find a root method for build number mmb29k.g920aucu4dph5
Any insight or direction would be most appreciated!!
Bumpppp. Anyone find a method to root?
Don't think there's currently a method to root for this variant if you're on marshmallow
No. You ****ed.
I'm looking to root my phone, but I have a few questions. I just want to make sure I'm using a method that will work for my phone as I seem to have an uncommon version. I'm on a small carrier, and I'm questioning how I can root without tripping KNOX. Every guide I've found seems to indicate there are questions about rooting my phone. My build version also never shows up on any of the guides as a supported build.
Relevant information:
Galaxy S6
Model: SM-G920R6
Android Version: 5.0.2
Baseband Version: G920R6WWU2AOF2
KNOX version: 2.4
Anyone able to point me to a root that will work, and not trigger KNOX? Any guides are welcome as well!
As far as I know there isnt a way to root without triggering knox , and if you want to root you could probly find a guide quite eaisly , if its that you want to still be able to use knox secured apps etc use magisk

I tried PingPong. It notified me that it could not complete (I assume because I have an unsupported version).

Will Android Pay still work with magisk? I'm not familiar with it. I was under the impression that I would be permanently unable to use mobile payment applications if Knox was triggered. Is that wrong?

Yes it will , enable magisk hide and it should work , android pay dosnt use knox , i think samsung pay does but android pay is not effected by knox
Install magisk and it will all be fine
Also for rooting , just flash twrp with odin then flash magisk for root etc
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.
