Rooting Note 5 (with PH2) without wiping - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

I have not been in the Note 5 sections until now and I need to know if there is a way to root the T-mobile Note 5 that has been updated already to PH2. I was hoping for a way to do with without having to wipe everything out on the phone. I saw something mentioned on another site about work by @Manh_IT The site also mentions having updated their site links with links that work for the Marshmallow update but I do not see that anywhere else online which makes me skeptical.

I too would like to know. Just got back from the Note 7

Is data usage broken for anyone with the Sprint variant?

When I first got the phone it was working fine and I even changed the day for when my cycle restarts but now is broken and shows me 2 days in advance till the following month so my data shows as 0 usage. I'm just now finding out. Think it was that ota update we got.
Edit: A restart fixed it. Guess I should've did that first before creating a thread..

On 4.4.2 you're either stuck using safestrap recovery and Touchwiz ROMs, or you can pay to have a jtag soldered in which allows for downgrading back to 4.3 or older

You say that you have the SM-T580 right?

Exynos is the name of the CPU, which is what the T580 has. You can double-check by using CPU-Z and going to the Device tab, for Hardware it should say "samsungexynos7870". I followed cubano2031's instructions a few days ago and the process went fine although the process for going into Recovery mode is wrong, I documented the correct method here.
Cubano do you know how to unlock the bootloader?

I am currently running Android 7.0 on mine and am having issues with storage space limits I could fix if I rooted but I am having the damnedest time finding a quality guide for an Android novice on how to root this thing. If you were able to find a good guide I would appreciate a link because the one I see in this thread has a bunch of links within it for downloads that do not work.

Root?

Been looking around to see if there are any legit root methods available yet for the Pixel. So far, I've found this: http://www.technobuzz.net/root-google-pixel-xl/ anyone know if this is legit? Are there any legit methods yet?

From what I've seen there isn't a version of TWRP for the Pixel yet, however I'd love to be proven wrong.

The one with magisk works generally (tested on nexus 5x) but it needs twrp and there is still no working version for the pixel. however, i found this post: http://www.droidforums.net/threads/twrp-already-on-the-pixel.291391/ so it souldn't need a long time until it's available....

He also stated that TWRP cannot handle the new file encryption yet, so .zips would need to be uploaded in recovery which is wonky for some, as well as the dual system partition fiasco is not handled yet. So *soon* might be more like a few weeks...
Out of curiosity, what are you guys wanting to do with root? First thing I'm going to do is replace system emojis with iOS ones.
As of 10/20, from the source:
Chainfire said:
This is the first device with Android's new partition layout. Having looked at the firmwares and at running devices (remotely), I have some ideas on how to do it.
However, it will be a while before I have SuperSU fixed up. The changes will be quite a bit of work and testing, and doing so remotely will make that take significantly longer. So I'm just going to wait for my own device, but as they aren't available in my country, it has to be shipped from another country and go through customs. I don't expect my device to arrive for another week or two.
In the meantime, it's always possible someone else releases root for it.
I saw @jcase and @Dees_Troy have been playing with TWRP, to me it seems wholly possible to fix that up (mostly) as well. But even if TWRP is released tomorrow, using the existing SuperSU ZIP will not work on it, due to all the breaking changes in Android 7.1.

Indeed. Once chainfire gets his device, things should begin to roll along much quicker.
I was excited to get the pixel to give into my flashaholic tendencies with reckless abandonment. Sad to see there is no root method available. Went back to my s7 edge for now. I'll get back to my pixel when I can tinker... This pixel sure ain't the Nexus I've grown to know and love. ?

I assume that the dual system layout partition could play a big role in why TWRP/Root isn't ported yet. Every method has to be adapted to that solution so far as it is new. Though TWRP is already being worked and it's only a question of time XD.

@jcase Does the dePixel8 method break Android Pay? Also, does it give you root access, or do I still need to apply root after the dePixel8 (and if so, how?)

This doesn't exactly unlock your bootloader. It breaks whatever VZW put on there to block bootloader unlock. After running this you will need to use adb to unlock the bootloader yourself just like a GS version or a nexus. No, this will not give you root. But typically a bootloader unlock is necessary to achieve root. Root methods have not been released yet. Chain Fire has achieved system less root but it's not ready for release.
Also, no depixel8 does not break android pay. Unlocking your bootloader after applying depixel8 will break android pay. Google has prevented android pay from working of your bootloader is unlocked.
Do you read the XDA articles or just post on the forums?

Rollback from Open Beta 11 to 9.0.3 - Non-root

Quite new to Oneplus but been flashing roms etc etc for a while. - This post has been edited from a question to the solution.
Anyway, I have been on the Beta for almost two days and seeing no worth to being in Beta so thought I would go back to stable.
I took a while to search XDA and OnePlus community and found some saying you need TWRP and other saying you cant.
The answer is quite simple and thanks to @Cave_diver for directing me to what actually works
There is a rollback file at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77390204&postcount=2.
This takes you back to Oreo but will immediately update you to Pie.
It will wipe your data and you wont be able to auto restore your google pie data initially but once update, factory reset again and then all good.
Simple eh.
There is a rollback firmware that you can flash in the local system update settings. Search in the announcement posts for the beta (possibly also older beta) for a link to this downgrade image .
Once you flashed that, Out can upgrade to 9.03.
