Hi,
I recently updated my S7 (Australian Telstra model) and can't find any rooting available for it. Has anyone got a root out for Build Number: MMB29K.G930FXXU1BPIT yet? Baseband version is G930FXXU1BPIQ and when I click 'Software Update' it checks for a latest software and tells me it's the latest already with the current version: G930FXXU1BPIT/G930FTEL1BPIT/G930FXXU1BPIQ.
I also hear alot about 'tripping knox' when you root a Galaxy S7. Can someone please explain what is meant by this?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, knox WILL be tripped for the international model of the S7. No way to avoid that. Tripped knox counter means void warranty

Title pretty much says it all. I have a Galaxy S6 SM-G920I (International, Australia), and I can't be bothered waiting for Marshmallow, the question is if I upgrade via ODIN to 6.0 (XSP, Singapore International ROM), will I void my warranty in ANY way, so I couldn't take it to a store and ask for a warranty claim, and if I want to, when the Australian version comes around, flash the Australian version, will that affect the warranty as well? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I'm using Samsung S6 with stock software and would like to root it using CF-Auto-root. My question is whether I need to unlock bootloader first or is it safe to flash image from CF-Auto-root site by ODIN?
I don't care about knox. I'm O.K. with tripping it. Just don't want to brick the phone.
Baseband G920FXXU3DPDP,
Build number MMB29K.G920FXXU3DPDP
Kernel version - 3.10.61-7884513, [email protected]#1

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for info. You're right. I've just rooted my S6 using CF-AutoRoot. Looking forward to install TWRP and some good alternative ROM.
Hello Guys. The new 7.0 BTU firmware for g930f downgrade 6.0.1 is possible? Knox warranty 0x0?
Yes it possible and it dont trigger knox. But why the hell you wanna downgrade? Nougat is so much better than MM

Thanks for fast reply. Can you try the downgrade? I would like to know before I flash that it works.
You want us to do the dirty work for you? Who are you? Why is your phone and your time more valuable than ours? You have all instructions here on XDA and do it yourself. Its not hard.

I asked only that someone had tried to downgrade. You do not have to do a jerk style comment.
Yes you can downgrade back to Marshmallow using ODIN or SmartSwitch, KNOX 0x0

The Answer is; Yes you can!
But, this can only be done on international Galaxy S7, S7 edge variants, including the American and Canadian version, but except to those device with built in “locked bootlooader” such as the Verizon and AT&T Galaxy S7, S7 edge models or we can say models with Snapdragon Processor.
Devices with unlocked bootloaders can be freely downgrade-able, but those with highly secured bootloader cannot be messed around.
As long as you flash the original firmware with ODIN, you'll not have any problem for unlocked bootloaders.
Download the Firmware from Sammobile or use SamFirm. Flash it through ODIN and you are good to go.:good:
I just bought a S7. I rerooted my previous S4 years ago and unlocked hotspot/tethering.
Im wanting to know the easiest most effective way to unlock the hotspot/tethering for my S7. Is it possible w/o rooting?
If the only option is w-rerooting. What rooting method is currently the safest?
Build Number: NRD90M.G930PVPU4BQAA
Boot Loader & PDA Version G930PVPU4BQAA
Android Version: 7.0
Anyone

Rooting is the best option, without root then PDAnet is about your only option.
As for the best way to root, do a Google search for:
"How to root (your model number)"

when you say " model number" do you mean S7? or do you mean Build Number?

No
S7 is the device name
Build number designates which firmware you have.
I mean your model number. Go to system settings>about phone>model number
system settings>about phone>device info>model number

Hi,
Saw on a reddit thread that Samsung has updated the RP (Rollback Prevention) Fuse version of Knox in latest updates, so we can't downgrade software if we are using the latest updates.
Is this true? If so, to what extent? Is this device specific or region specific?
Can someone provide some insight & info about this?
