WARNINGS & DISCLAIMERS​
Proceed with caution and at your own risk - I am not responsible if your phone self destructs, gets bricked, or melts.
Please keep in mind that both these methods will yield ROOT only - as of know there is no way to unlock bootloader on AT&T
Rooting and any other modifications to your phone will void your warranty - do not root if you do not know what you are doing.
Rooted devices will not be able to receive OTA updates. You may have to unroot and restore stock in order to accept updates.​

How to check if you tripped the root counter
Once your device is rooted via either method - the device secret service menu will show that you are rooted.
To check:
1. Go to dialer
2. enter 3845#*850#
3. Scroll to and click on LG RCT
4. click Display Results
Here you will see that it shows the device is rooted
Once the device is unrooted - the setting will be reset to No Root

My G3 from AT&T is on order and should be in my hands in a week or so. What firmware version comes with the phone out of the box? Should I root immediately to avoid any patches from being installed?
My reason for asking is based on my experience with the Moto X. I realized too late that accepting the standard upgrade to 4.4.2 via OTA would eliminate any chance of rooting. I want to make sure that I don't fall into that trap again.

The current root-able firmware is 10D - Software Version: D85010d
Why not - better safe than sorry...

Are there any warranty software's like Samsung's Knox on this device? If so does rooting with towel root trip it?

According to a friend of mine, towelroot will not trip the QFuse, only the root counter. If you read post #2 on this thread that issue is addressed.

QFuse will only be tripped if the recovery or rom is changed... The root counter will reset to No Root if you use the unroot method I posted
Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk

Does it also remove the line about the first time you rooted? Also, when you say Rom is changed does that mean debloating/removing carrieriq/using xposed will trip it?

I rooted the phone using towel root - used Root Explorer to uninstall Bloat - installed Xposed and G3 TweakBox... then I checked to root checker in the hidden menu and it showed that it was rooted but the QFUSE was intact... then I unrooted using the method i posted.. Not only was the phone unrooted, traces of xposed installation were removed, and the root check in the hidden menu showed No Root with no additional information - also the QFUSE was still intact.
This is my experience and I have tested it twice. However... as always... Your mileage may vary...

Many thanks. I hate to sound like anoob, but this lg is new to me (coming from a gs3 where I avoided Knox counters until I sold the phone).

Working here. Thanks!

So let me ask you guys/gals is the bootloader locked than? Just need to find out before I go purchasing this phone through AT&T, thanks.

The bootloader is locked... Although you can root and install xposed, run root apps, and Debloat it's not likely that the bootloader will be unlocked anytime soon... So no custom recovery and no rooms.

I figured thanks for the quick response! I'm better off going with Korean version.

Is one of the methods better than the other? Just trying to decide which one to go with. Thanks

noticed when i run either root method SuperSU is not installed after. when i verify root under the the 2nd post, it says Rooted, Not allowed command has been excuted >su Rooting related file had been installed >su >superuser

Galaxy S6 5.1.1 root

Hi,my galaxy s6 is on version 5.1.1 with the G920FXXU2BOGG firmware and I want to root it but don't know the right method.I know that there is already a method on how to root galaxy s6 on 5.1.1 but does it support my firmware?because it is made to root the first 5.1.1 firmware or it supports all galaxy s6 5.1.1 firmwares?

Only way to get root on 5.1.1 thus far is by flashing TWRP recovery.
If you are an amateur to this sort of thing I would highly suggest not to do that.
It will void your warranty permanently by tripping KNOX which can't be "un-tripped"
May I ask why you think you need/want root?

I want to root my galaxy s6 as I see some good custom roms and want to try them.I've had some android phones before like the galaxy note 4,galaxy note 3,htc one m8 and galaxy nexus and rooted them.Just curious on how to root my gs6 with the XXU2BOGG firmware.Does the 5.1.1 root method supports my firmware?

Okay then, as long as you aware of the risks..
Rooting isn't device dependent, it's just software. It's supported on any firmware as long as you have TWRP installed. It just installs SuperSU for you into the system files.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/orig-development/twrp-t3080940
Pretty sure TWRP is supported on all models of S6/Edge, they all share the same hardware as each other.
Just flash it with Odin version 3.10.6.
Grab it here ZeroFLTE represents all S6 models except Sprint model which require their own special one (no idea why)
You then follow the Odin install method, making sure you're using 3.10.6. Otherwise more than likely will not work.
After installation of TWRP and then booting into TWRP you will be faced with the "SuperSU is not installed, would you like to install it?"
.. And done.
Er, actually I think that appears when when you go to restart via TWRP menu
But yeah.. best of luck, don't blame me if your phone explodes into a fire ball that goes nuclear and destroys the world.. Or simply bricks it
Edit: Wait are you talking about the Chainfire root method? If you are you may as well not even consider that if you're planning on custom firmware installs.. TWRP is your best bet because it isn't device/firmware specific like CF. And you need TWRP for firmware installs anyway..

Thanks again!But I thought the only way to root the gs6 with 5.1.1 is by using the unikernel something?as 5.1.1 is different than 5.0.2.

Assuming it doesn't boot loop with unikernel (all reports say it's fine) then yeah you won't have any dramas with root via TWRP.. Like I said it's just software, the boot loop comes from Samsung being slippery Gypsies and modifying their kernels to basically stop people from modifying system partitions. Hence the need for a custom kernel to bypass that crap. You'll be fine

Sorry for delayed response.. Yes flashing a firmware tar. md5 will reset the system partition back to full stock and replace the recovery, kernel, modem etc.
Just download one corresponding to your device ie.. SM-G92XX where the first X is either a 5 or 0 and the second is the country or region the phone was intended for. I keep the latest firmware for my device and country (not carrier because it has too much bloatware) around at all times to undo any screw ups and start again

Root Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930W8 Exynos)

Hello everyone,
I just got my new S7 from Telus and my goal now is:
Root the phone
Install a clean stock ROM (bloatware-free)
Now I've been reading a bit but I'm a little unsure whether I'm looking at the best solution out there, or even if I'm on the right track.
These are the 2 options that I'm leaning towards following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/sm-g930-exynos-cf-auto-root-t3337353
Can you tell me if the TWRP route is the best to follow?
Also, I can't seem to find a Stock ROM, can you point me to the right one for my phone? (Sorry, my searching and Googling skills needs an upgrade.)

Installing twrp wipes the phone, so you lose everything. If you install cfroot first on the other hand, you can backup your stuff with titanium backup and other apps and then install twrp and restore your apps at the end.

I'm ok with the wipe as I just got the phone today so I have nothing important there.
So would you suggest that I use TWRP over cfroot?
--Also, do you know where the right stock ROM is? I still can't find one.-- Oops, sorry I thought the link you have was part of your signature. I got my ROM now, taking a long time to download though. Haha.

Is there another download location I can use? I messed up the slow download and now I have to wait a long time just to start over with the slow download.

TWRP install does not wipe the phone. If you want to use TWRP to backup/restore data you have to format data (which does wipe the phone), because TWRP does not support the samsung encryption yet (no timeframe for this).
You could still use TWRP to install stuff on /system.
I would go cfroot and flashfire.

quick question here: I've got 930w8 from Bell (Canadian version). on https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ I Cannot see CF-auto-root root for W8 version.
Is it safe to guess that auto-root for 930f (exynos) will do the trick?

You can use Cf Auto root for G930F, is working

Hello!
Just wondering if this CF Root will work to root my device still?
It's April 4, 2017, so this thread is really old.
I've gathered that I can use CF-Auto Root G930F and have that downloaded..
I got my phone from Virgin and live in Canada
It's a Samsung Galaxy S7
Model Number : SM-G930W8 (LU2BQB6)
Android Version : 7.0
I'm trying to spoof Pokemon GO haha, and apparently I need to move some apps to a system folder or something.
First thing first though, figure out how to root.
Quite frankly, I'd be willing to send someone a couple bucks via paypal for any assistance at all.

I can tell you that cf autoroot for international model works on android 6.0.1, not sure if will do the job on android 7

C-Spire S6 Root (SM-G920R7)

Hello,
I've been on XDA for a while and I'm more than familiar with rooting/ROMing/unlocking/etc (so don't feel like you need to dumb things down for me), but now I've got something I can't figure out.
So my sister-in-law has a C-Spire (yikes, I know) Galaxy S6, Model SM-G920R7. It's a very unusual model, the only place I've been able to even find firmware for it is from the SamFirm tool. There's no support/testing for it anywhere really, so I've just been experimenting with it using the usual methods to try and root, but nothing seems to be working as intended.
It seems to be most closely related to the Sprint variant, so most methods I've tried were based on the methods for that model (SM-G920P)
All methods end with the same result: SuperSU is installed but there is no Binary. (open the app, it says no binary installed)
What I've done, in this order:
Install TWRP then SuperSU latest: No superSU binary
CFAutoRoot for SM-G920P: No SuperSU binary
Install custom unversal kernels (tried hacker kernel, UniKernel, and Arter97) then SuperSU: OS won't boot
Tried to restore system from TWRP backup after all these failures: success but OS won't boot (DM-Verity issue for mounting system RW?)
Finally I just used ODIN to return it to stock so it would boot (latest firmware G900R7WWU3CPF2)
So now it's right back where I started, stock everything with no root and now the addition of a tripped knox. Any ideas on how to get this thing rooted?
I assume because I was able to install TWRP that the bootloader is unlocked. Is that a correct assumption?

If it boots fine, I'd say BL is unlocked.
Look here, especially the section called "Android Version" https://autoroot.chainfire.eu

My S7 Was Unroot but I don't know why

I had root my S7 on 8/5,following the steps on TWRP webpage.
Yesterday I tried to update my TWRP to 3.0.2-3 via Flashify,and found out I have already lost my root(but I have no idea why).I'm wonder is it fine to follow the steps on TWRP again to get my root back again?(I can still enter the TWRP 3.0.2-2,which I flashed nearly a month ago)
Thanks for the answer.

Same thing happen to me when i flash different kernels.

Do you allow the security updates? If so, they will remove root and it might be difficult to get root again. You will have to disable a certain security update (don't know which one)
