How to root samsung galaxy s7? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I have Samsung galaxy s7, MODEL number: SM-G930F.
and i want to root my device in order to get the tombstone file that is located in the /data directory.
I already tried to root my device using Odin and the device got stuck in boot forever after the root finished, showing the samsung icon.
I'am asking for a good tested toturial to do the root.
Thank you.

Install TWRP through odin, then flash Magisk through TWRP along with no-verity-opt-encrypt. Easier method with a safety net pass.

Root Faild

Hi, I tried to root my device many times and I have the same result with each try ( root fai code 0x174B87) with kingoroot , I cant root my at&t device SGS4 (I9505xxUFNB) "4.4.2 kitkat" , I dont know how to deal with this problem but I hope u find one and help me , I suffered from along time ago hoping to root my device
Thank u
i9505 is not the ATT version, it is the international version. If it is indeed the i9505 version, then just use Chainfire's CF Auto Root package or put Chainfire's SuperSU zip on your phone and use Odin to install TWRP recovery, reboot directly to it before it boots to the OS and install the zip.

Twrp 3.0.2 keeps being rejected in download mode.

So most of the details of my problem is already here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66583532&postcount=2171
Extra info: I'm running on Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920W8 on 6.0.1 Marshmallow, with 0 knox trips. I've never rooted this phone before so there's that. I've tried installing all the twrp 3.0.2 versions from the teamwin site but to no avail.
Don't use official one from twrp. You have to use the one of arter97.
http://arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/kernel/13.1/g920fi/
Not sure if that works for the w8 variant.
Don't use that arter one because it's not specific to your variant of the S6 and could cause problems. I also have a G920W8 and I also could not get TWRP to work, if I remember correctly , I rooted it by flashing the correct CF root tar file, then installed flashify from the play store and installed TWRP from there, try that and tell me how it goes.
Since I'm a new user XDA wont let me post links yet but just navigate to the CFautoroot site and nagivate down until you see the download for G920W8

[Q] Is it possible to Flash .ZIP without root?

I have Galaxy S6 (920F) with Android Nougat.
I have managed to install TWRP Recovery on my device and it is allowing me to install .zip files. But my phone is Not ROOTED.
So my question is,
If I flash .zip(s) now that are made for my device, will it be installed successfully?
or my device will stuck on bootloop?
Well, if you are flashing some files into directories that don't require root to access, it will work.
But lets say you want to flash ported system app (like message app). It will not work, since it requires flashing into \system and that directory requires root to be accessed and modified. :good:

You can start with either one. If there is a CF autoroot or TWRP for your device then there should be instructions for how to do it in the thread where you get them from. Follow those instructions, it isn't rocket science.

Sc-04f docomo
Uncheck Auto Reboot from options in odin

Help here
Ok
Then twrp install after i root
With odin or else
I have download file cf auto root from official website for my supported model number
But stil confuses about which thing i install first
Twrp
Or root
There are two types of root
Cf auto root and super su
Some youtube videos show me twrp install odin on download mode
Then install twrp custum recovery then install zip file of super su
But still confused about cf auto root file of my device
Is also available
Which thing i do first
With step by step
Plz guide me
You would install TWRP. boot the phone root it and then power off boot into recovery and flash SuperSu. I'm pretty sure this is how it's done I've not done it myself yet but I've been reading up on it alot can anyone confirm this?

These things that you are mentioning have instructions in the places that you are finding/reading them. Try reading those instructions and doing what they say to do.
Installing TWRP and rooting have already been explained to you and you are still asking. Installing Xposed is just one more step. There are guides for how to do all of this everywhere. Try paying attention or you will regret it because you will destroy your device.
Are you even paying attention to what they are saying to you? Are you even trying to understand what you are reading in the threads and videos that explain how to install them?
You aren't asking "how to do it", you are wanting someone to do everything for you instead of using your own brain.
If your bootloader is locked then you can not flash TWRP, you will have to flash CF autoroot in Odin the same way that TWRP is flashed in Odin. The process is basically the same, only the file that is used is different.

Hey everyone,
I can't root my device which is the same Galaxy S5 (SC-04F) the problem I am facing during the root is that when I try to flash TWRP from odin everything goes well but my phone doesn't detect the SIM instead I see "No sim | Insert Sim card" same goes with cf_auto root it doesn't detect the SIM card.
I really want to flash a custom rom Iam bored of the stock. Iam running the latest stock update 6.0.1 with August security patch level.
I have tried flashing the modem.bin by converting it into .tar file but no luck.
Any help will be appreciated...
Did you open the developer option and enable the usb debugging and oem ?

They aren't having a problem flashing the device, they are having problems detecting SIM when it boots up after flashing.

Root S7/ S7 Edge & Unroot Easy (Updated: 02/09/2020)

This is an updated root and unroot method for the s7/s7 edge.
I updated the zip file with the latest eng boot
Uploaded the latest stock files
Credit: https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-s7-s7edge-oreo-nougat-t3819616
Use V10 Odin Files this will allow you to root the s7/s7 sdge on the latest firmware. (02/09/2020)
Directions:
This works for Oreo And Nougat Roms
As always there is a chance of bricking your phone
1. Download and extract S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root.zip
2. Reboot your phone to download mode
3. Inside the S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root folder you will find an Odin_Firmware folder. Use Odin and flash the Eng Boot Image for your
phone
4. Once phone is rebooted and connected to computer click on the cmd-here.exe and type root.bat in the command window and hit enter
5. Follow directions on the command window
6. You can only use system root on Oreo
7. Once root is done and root bat closes leave your phone alone for a few minutes it may reboot a couple of times
8. Sprint Users This should work for you as well just let me know if your phone reboots with eng boot.img installed like it did on nougat while try too run the root.bat. I may need to change some things
9. With this system root do not update su binary if in anyway you get something asking you to update binaries ignore it. You can also disable notifications about updating binaries. This will not affect su app
10. Don't flash any superuser zips in recovery that are not made by me
S7 Oreo Nougat Adb Advanced Root V13: https://archive.org/download/s7oreo...Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root_V13 (02-08-2020).zip
Return to stock:
Open odin
Reboot in download mode
Apply files
Plus in device
Flash to device

None of the odin files worked for G930PVPSBCTA1
I'm on version G930PVPSBCTA1 and none of the odin files would flash. Fails immediately when flashing. Am I doing something wrong?

Well that sucks. I highly doubt we'll see a root method then at this point. Thanks for replying.

I'm trying to root g935u and see every tread stuck on v11 bootloader.
Seems it may help: h_t_tps:// support.halabtech.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=file&id=234247
