I'm looking to grab a s6 but was not sure if it can be rooted? Are only certain build numbers able to be rooted ? Or is the latest 7.x version able to be rooted also ?
Thanks

Only root available is for 5.0.2 OE2 build. Currently if the phone is on version 5.1.1 or higher, there is no way to downgrade to 5.0.2 OE2. You'll need to find someone who has aan s6 already rooted or on that version of firmware for sale.

Hi, I'm on android version 4.4.4 NK4 and I was wondering what exactly I had to do to get stock rooted lollipop. I would really appreciate any help I could get.

I used this post to update to OK4, current lollipop version, and then rooted stock version (I used metalfan's 1/19 modified build). he has a pure stock version too.
Hello,
I am looking for a safe method of downgrading my phone from the lastest Android Marshmellow update to a compatible update that supports root access. I've looked everywhere, but haven't been able to find anything that I would confidently try for my device and update. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Marshmallow 6.0.1
Kernel 3.10.61
Knox 2.6
SM-G925V
Build: G925VVRU4CPF4
Hello,

Build Number
MMB29K.G920VVRU4CPF4

Thanks,
I think you need to downgrade from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1. Using this thread for reference. Caution it mentions PD2 firmware to downgrade from. So if your on later firmware it may not work. Just read through thread and see if someone asked or did downgrade from later version.

Then use this thread to root. I don't believe any rom for Verizon s6 exist on this version of Android as well as xposed for Samsung. I may be wrong but just FYI.

Okay so I had Xposed on a rooted version of 6.0.1 I then installed renovated 6.0.1 which changed my Android version to 7.0
Does this mean I can't install Xposed now?
I'm newish to the whole rooting thing, I can use TWRP and ODIN with ease, normally can suss out which roms are safe to use with my current device ect
However I'm unsure about this
Any help would be appreciated

Hi
Ok no root help need , your custom rom is Renovate 7.0.1 then , no Xposed for Samsung Nougat yet..
Hello, I'll jump right in;
I'm wondering if it's possible to go from rooted 6.0.1 to rooted Nougat 7.0.0 (superman rom or something) without having to go back to the stock firmware in between.
So to be perfectly clear:
I have 6.0.1 SM-G935P ROOTED
And I'm trying to get to:
7.0 (nougat) SM-G935P ROOTED
And I want to know if you can skip updating to OFW 7.0 and skip straight to CFW 7.0
(old PSP terminology: OFW official firmware/CFW custom firmware)
Phone info:
Baseband G935PVPu2APE1
Build MMB29M
Model SM-G935P
Android V 6.0.1
EDIT:
Is 7.0.0 only for unlocked phones? If so, is it possible to unlock my version/model and will I still be able to use my Sprint network with an unlocked phone? Thanks guys!
Edit #2:
Also, is there a list of custom roms for specific devices anywhere? Or would any custom rom made for S7 Edge work on any S7 Edge? I'm trying to get substratum working and it says I need a rom that's compatible with OMS and Masquerade.
