Sorry I don't know as much about rooting as I wish I did. Can you please explain to me what exactly is Unikernel? Will it just root?
Also I have recently read in another post that G920R7 isn't compatible with Unikernel and there has been cases of bricked devices. Have you tested it?

Here is the Unikernel page. I just used it after seeing your post and worked perfect. I have the 920I though, so not sure about the 920R.

use the cf auto root download this use google to search first one that comes up use that link go to model sm-g920p cspire and sprint uses
the same network . Use odin to install i have same phone and have mine rooted in this way. So far tried using the sprint version custom rom it will work but you can make phone calls but not the data side for phone internet. Make sure you go to settings in the phone under find my phone and turn off activation lock

Verizon Galaxy s5

I just switched from an iPhone 6 to a Galaxy s5. I'm not a total noob, I just don't know where to go. This s5 is on Android 5. I'm looking to root it so I can install TWRP. I tried Kingroot and Towel root. The first failed twice and the second said I'm not supported. Can anyone suggest a free tool or ROM to root this phone? Thanks guys.[emoji14]

I don't know about root, but the bootloader is locked on the Verizon S5, so custom recovery is out of the question. There's a subforum specifically for the Verizon S5 here, start your research there.

Thank you. I appreciate your help.

Can I do with my ATT S7?

I just got an S7 today, the SM-G930A from ATT. I had an upgrade available so I went for it and got rid of my old S4 Active. From what I've read so far it doesn't look like I can root my new phone right now but I wanted to ask just to make sure I'm not missing anything. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

No you cannot root it, because it's bootloader is locked down by Samsung. Even if you tried to install twrp on it, you would just brick your device.

If your on 5.0.2 kingroot will work. As far as roms and TWRP im in the same boat. Don't really want to try and brick my phone without more info.

I'm pretty sure these phones sm-s906l can't be used with any carer except straight talk. They have passed some bs agreement were they won't unlock phones to keep people using there service.

Please help!!

I dont know anythinabout rooted phones. I have samsung galaxy j7oot but it is now through cricket wireless... some how i bricked the phone, i guess the previous owner had it rooted. It says (custom binary blocked by frp lock) in red at the top left of the screen and i dont know how to fix it. Pleas3 someone anyone help me! I need my phone for the baby sitter and work and i cant afford to by a new one at the moment! Im desperate!
Can you return it to the person you bought it from? Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like there's any easy way to fix it. Sorry.
By the way, in any internet forum, it's helpful and courteous to use an informative subject line. That way, people can scan the subject lines to see which topics they're interested in following or contributing to, and can find their way back to a thread they're interested in. You'll also get more helpful responses if you do that.
Good luck.
Fix Brick
First you should post in the S7 group, rhis us showing up in the S8 group...
You have probably lost everything on the phone, but may be able to fix it still...
You will need to find the stock ROM for your phone. It should be posted in the S7 forum. You will also need the ODIN software for your PC. Instructions for flashing the ROM using ODIN should also be in the forum.
Wish You luck!

I did this to myself when I enabled all the Google security and accidently unclicked oem unlock after I rooted the phone.
I ended up with the same msg. Couldn't get Into recovery.
I used smart switch on pc. Used emergency recovery entered my serial number. And it got me up and running.
