Exynos because they already has System-less root
Definitely Exynos for XDA mods and fun!

can you please confirm if the problem with the gpu performance of the exynos can be resolved..i mean if you want to emulate dolphin emulator, you basically can't because the bad driver implementation
This is probably a really dumb question, but i need to know... How do you make sure you order a phone that's got Exynos & not snapdragon?

"Kernel Upgraded to 2.6.35"
So it looks like chainfire has developed a root for the Snapdragon variants of the s8 using CF Auto root. Still no unlocked bootloader or TWRP but it's a start.

This doesn't look like it's for Snapdragon... THIS IS NOT FOR SNAP DRAGON! Do not use this otherwise bye bye device!!
Root will be out by the end of this week. Don't worry about it.

The EngBoot.img will be released within the next couple days. That means that root will come soon after that.
Delete this thread. People have already talked about this so much. Those files were released by a bot that generates it for any device. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, flashing this will fail. You're essentially baiting people and wasting their time.

Not going to buy it not worth the hassle and if everyone look the the gsmfourm they have it posted for the open public I see no reason to use it because the bootloader are locked not point what so ever

So where is it...???
Root DOES exist on the S8 Plus CAN and US variants
I just went on Chainfire's website and the root DOES exist.
Just do CTRL + F or Command +F for Macs and type in the Model Number. In my case it was the G955W. So yes the OP is right and yes there is a root out for all S8 Plus devices for Snapdragon variants.
And no this is not a bot that generates it, this is the real thing.
:fingers-crossed:

Hi
You are right but the phone model was not mention...and this is the international S8+ forum ( Exynos) so I assumed we were talking about an Exynos model

Hi
That is a good start but maybe you may have better luck if you ask in the right forum..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+
At the bottom of the page you will see all the S8+ Snapdragon , US carriers , check out what is going on over there
This has never been international only forum. We talk about all versions of s8+.

yes we have root, we are waiting for the write up on, "the how to.."
most of the other threads are closed cause of the arguments and discussions of getting root, and not being patient for the release of the files. and the progress thread got closed also... but these are the threads to keep an eye on...

thanks buddy ?
Hyperion is really class
Took half the day to get my Virgin Mobile J7 2016 model unlocked on T-Mobile yesterday. Phone works but no data. I messed with the settings but didn't help. Also getting annoying hands free activation. I can force stop but comes back on reboot. It's been a few years since I flashed a Rom. I'm on 6.1 but would like to be on Nougat. The gsmzambia tech that helped me told me to make sure I don't wipe something but I forget what it is. Any help would be appreciated. I got the phone cheap but kinda of thinking I should have just bought a unlocked phone.
Is it possible to unlock oem on the US snapdragon variants. My research told me no, is there a free method to do so
