Is it possible to find the beta firmware for the G955F? Just don't know where to look if someone could link me. Cheers

Flashing TWRP and custom ROM, there's not an official .zip signed by Samsung that won't trip Knox.
So be patient and wait for official release, or break Knox, wareanty, Samsung Pay and Secure folder in half.

This mobile was shipped with Android 4.2.2, if I have understood things correctly I should NOT update this to Android 4.3 because of the new ''samsung security thing, KNOX or something)?
I should just rot, install recovery and flash 4.3 roms? Not upgrading first?

Up to you, but some 4.2.2 versions have KNOX bootloader so let us know your software version to see if you already have it. You can update and void knox if you don't care about using it or the warranty implications, which are unclear at best at the moment.
I rooted 4.2.2 with knox and installed a Google Edition ROM no hassle, working great, not looking back. I don't want knox, and I don't care about the warranty though!

Looks like that was the last Knox-free version! Open in download mode (volume up and power and home) just to be sure there is no Knox 0x0 in there, but afaik you're lucky and don't have it!

Lucky you! Keep it that way I reckon, there are knox free roms. I'm a bit jealous. Once I rooted all I got was that damn security warning popping up all the time. Android is starting to converge with iOS as time goes by. The OEMs should not be allowed this kind of control, and the network carriers should be given a choice: sell the device as is, or don't.
Google kowtowing all the time is sickening and then the OEM/network clamp down more and more on the dev community.
does anyone try rooting latest AQG5 firmware ? i flashed twrp after updating to AQG5 but my phone frozen at galaxy s8+ screen, thankfully odin rescued my phone. currently i am at latest firmware and dont know the root is working or not. did i do something wrong ? or root in not available in latest firmware ? please help.
TWRP is not compatible with AQG5 due to lack of kernel source.. I am no way an expert on this. So not sure what this all means..
Creater @jesec is waiting for the kernel source so he can update TWRP with it.

i guess rooting is not available for the AQG5 yet. i think you need to wait to possible it for root. developers will update their roms with AQG5 soon and you wil able to use this update with root. just be patient

Do the MM update by downloading from Sammobile.
Don't screw around with OTA updates. . . . too much chance of an error.

Why not a custom ROM with root?

It seems your phone is a little different due to the bootloader.
I did find this though:

Do a little research on the web and on this board.
You'll probably find some good answers.
Hi
I have a insurance policy on my phone with "protect my bubble". I want to flash the Oreo ROM that is out for the s7 edge but it requires TWRP do it.
I want to flash TWRP to my phone via Odin and avoid rooting the device. Will doing this void my warranty.
Of course, because it will trip your Knox flag.

Hello
I have a somewhat strange question, is it any way to install/flash rom or update my phone to android Pie whiteout Root my device and whiteout void the warranty?
I am asking because i want to keep the warranty and i am not the best at this TWRP flashes stuff.
Thanks.
Flashing unsigned software like TWRP or a custom ROM will good the warranty as far as I know.
Not possible as there is not and probably never will be an official Pie Version for the S7. I'm hearing a lot of talk about a One UI Rom recently, where can that be found?

Nope, TWRP is not signed by Samsung so it will change the Knox code to good the warranty.

Not as far as I know.
Starting with the note 2, flashing non-Samsung files would change the Knox indicator to let Samsung know that the phone had been flashed with unsigned files.
