need to root J327T1 - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers

Greetings,
Ive bought J327T1 today and i want to root my device which is on nougat.

You and countless others. Welcome to the unrootable device club.

the Sm-j327u is rootable its the same exact device as the j327t & t1 the only difference with that model is it's bootloader unlocked. the only solution i see is buying the unlocked version of the j3 prime from samsung's website. good thing about buying from samsung is the fact you can choose what company you want and theres none or less bloatware installed.
---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------
also i have the link. i recommend that everyone buys directly from samsung for now on. remember one thing if your device has sm-XXXXU (X's in place of model numbers/letters) (U=unlocked and available on all carriers.) This is the death of unlocked bootloaders on carrier specific devices. the link to the phone is: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/all-other-phones/galaxy-j3-16gb-2017--unlocked--sm-j327uzkaxaa/

Has anyone found a way to root this phone yet i have both the Tmobile and the Metro versions i'd like to have rooted

We are working on it stay tuned a new thread will be made in the guides and news section if we are successful.

Update: we are out of ideas. Until someone has an exploit we cannot root this device sorry but you will need to either buy some other device or buy the j327u directly from samsung. It is unlocked and you can flash cf autoroot no problem. The only issue is we do not have twrp for that device yet but it will be soon.

Nope, because you can't unlock the bootloader.

i have a file that might help with rooting j327t/t1

theres no method for revision 2 firmware and its impossible to downgrade. the bootloader wont allow it. samsung added a new security check in place to check versions of firmware.

Is anyone ever goona look at this in the future or is it hopeless? Because I do understand that root is available but even that is unstable.

for now its hopeless. samsung really pissed me off by patching the root method not even a month after it was made. sure performance was improved slightly but patching the bootloader is just too much. is having an unlock method too much to ask?

Really surprised me with Samsung to about this. They're normally pretty nice with OEM unlock and etc. Unfortunately this is just a phone they've licked down. They're Galaxy Note series all have root. So it really makes no sense to me why this one is so closed off.

I fear it would be very hard for you
since this Phone is almost unknown
so it will be very hard to get the unlock code of the sim
just call the provider or find some one who unlocks huawei phones
but it will cost you about 10$-15$

Hello, thanks for the guide. I'd like to know: did anybody try with the U8950N-1, because in any forum i get to find something this model is not appearing in the ones tested. May it be substantially equivalent to the U8950N-51?

SM-G920V need to be rooted.

My question is simple, I was researching a lot, in here and google, and I find out that several persons says that this specific model can be rooted tripping knox.
we just need to root this phone, we don't care about warranty or anything, is there a way to rooted?
baseband version is
G920VVRU4BOK7
5.1.1
I saw somebody says there is a way to return to an old android version modifying the tar file.
as I said, we just need the phone rooted, we don't care about warranty or knox.
Thanks everybody for helping us.
There's no way with your build number the last build that could be rooted was oe2.
there is no an option? always is an option. somebody know it

[Firmware] G935UUEU4API3 Odin Files & Modded Odin

I know there's another thread for this but it's an absolute cluster F*** to make heads or tails of. I wanted to simplify things.
Simply download files, download modded Odin and put files in proper slots in Odin.
This is will give you stock U firmware with the latest PK1 modem. Root isn't what it used to be so I don't bother with it, please don't ask me for root files and instructions of this firmware.

Here's the modded Odin that I used. This is from the root thread and never once failed to flash anything on any device I've thrown at it: http://d-h.st/gsDA
Thank you for simplifying this process.
You're welcome. I'm here to help.... The other thread was too much of a mess!
Thanks joe3681, for all of your efforts.
Where online can I find a list of updates or a version history for the Samsung S7 Edge (T-mobile)?
so this will work with the latest update from November? and also what are the benefits of U firmware? I haven't been able to find any good info anywhere. i have rooted and flashed before lol i just haven't been in the game for a while
U firmware seems smoother, it's bloat free. Only real downside is no advanced messaging.

No, the U firmware is still the September security patch level. It's so much smoother/faster though. Especially rooted.

I followed the O.P. in the post root issues thread, doing nothing more and nothing less than what they said to do. No lag, normal temperature.
Thank you
OP thank you for the easy to follow instructions. I just bought my SM-G935T from ebay. I noticed some lag with the S7 Edge and of course all the Samsung and T-Mobile bloatware.
I flashed all of the files then did a system cache wipe. I have not noticed lag so far and now have 20 GB of the 32 GB free.
One question though. Where will the phone check for updates? Will it get updates from Samsung or T-Mobile?
TWRP help
.
I just got my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge and have been doing a lot of reading here on XDA about this device. I have had all the galaxy's since Galaxy II.
I have rooted / custom recovery / custom ROM all of them. I know there basically is not much out yet as far as ROMS go for the S7e, but I would like to instal
TWRP and root the phone. I can not seem to get a straight answer as to how to do this exactly. Each "How-To" that I run into are a little bit different and scares
me a bit. If you could help me with any answers or links to my question(s) I would sure appreciate it.
1) I would like to odin into the phone the latest TWRP but I am not 100% sure which file to flash.
2) I would like to ROOT the phone if it is fairly safe at this point in development, but again I have heard of at least 2 different methods to do this.
3) Please advise on which file to use and/or method. My phone DOES connect up with my PC just fine via USB and I have ADB working also.​

Well if you continue searching and reading some more, you will see that twrp only works on non locked bootloaders. Any carrier driven Samsung device has a locked bootloader and twrp will not work. We have the snapdragon and not the exynos. If you need to have twrp then you need to get an S7 edge Exynos version. There is no working custom recovery for the snapdragon version phones as of yet.

Thank you. That is a shame. I would think, incorrectly, that the unlocked GS7 firmware would be the baseline to build the carrier firmware.

Yeah, you'd think! The international is the one that gets everything first.
The unlocked firmware favors T-Mobile though offering T-Mobile customers features that other users don't get.

The Verizon is already unlocked for ANY sim card because Verizon no longer sim locks their phones all you need to do is put the sim card you want in the phone and set the APN(Access Point Names) settings correctly. Root has nothing to do with it.
All you need is root. trapa pa pa. All you need is root. trapa papa.
All you need is root, root. Root is all you need:laugh:

Agreed. It's a con. Probably fishing for marks with a Note 7 who want a rooted Note 5 - I feel the desperation myself as this is my situation. I think I'll move to the Note 4 until the Note 8 is released. It's not like a Pixel XL 128gb is going to show up on the google store anytime soon. I sure wish there was root for the Note 5...

So where is the eng kernel you're talking about? Or are you just going to do what everyone else does? They come along with a low post count screaming to high hell that they have "so and so.." And then just disappear?!

Says the location is Syria. It doesn't take too much imagination to think of a few reasons to not be flirting with a kernel from an unknown source with that as an origin location. Just saying.

That may be true however, @activefan01 did provide the eng kernel for the Verizon variant it just doesn't allow root access outside of the terminal so I'm ok with testing stuff that he provides.
Well i was wondering before i gave it a shot
If i unlock bootloader then i will be able to root the phone im going to give it a shot
Soon as stock rom downloads
I did this and rooted the sm-g935v
This way and that has locked bootloader

If you were able to unlock bootloader, yes. However we can't
Mine is unlocked

Youre not making sense. Why should I google it if I'm at XDA?

By putting xda in the google search you limit your results to stuff in XDA - generally a good idea.
But you are already at the J7 forum, and now you know your model number.
You will find some useful guide info here, though I don't know if yours is a 700F. There will be similarities. Guides are always a good place to start!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/how-to-root-twrp-install-xposed-t3328580
I believe the next step for you is to flash TWRP because TWRP then allows you to backup your stock, and to flash ROMs.
maybe you need to start here, if the guide above didn't help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/j700t-development/recovery-galaxy-j7-sm-j700t-t1-t3560342
There are warnings in there about having stock on hand. Make sure you do.
Unfortunately I can not help you further because it talks about flashing with Odin.
But you are in the correct forum for asking questions, so go for it!
Good luck!
Asking questions and being nice to people will get you about anywhere! That's how I approach any new phone.
