Hello, im fairly new to android and wanted to root my s8+ but it turns out that I'm running oreo which I believe isn't possible to root. Is there any method for me to down grade from version 8.0 back to 7.0 or will the root work fine on oreo? My phone is the g955u snapdragon model. Thanks for helping out!
If you find a working root for your phone on Oreo, please post the link here. I'm looking for one as well.
Can we root oreo?

I am about to buy a new S7 .. SM-G930FD ... and I think it should get an over the air upgrade to Nougat...?
Is this correct?
I am sure MM can be rooted ... can Nougat be rooted yet?
If it can be rooted could someone point me to the correct topic about hw to root Nougat on SM-g930FD
if it can not be rooted .. does anyone know about how long it takes before this is possible?
Thanks all

Nougat beta is only available for us/uk/singapore for ota afaik, however if you're rooted with twrp you should be able to install it now.
I am in Thailand ... I am pretty sure I will get the OTA. But, if not, I can root MM and load Nougat.
I think I want Nougat ... but I also don't want to lose root.
If I load the Beta Nougat from rooted MM ... I think I will probably lose root ...
I am kind of trying to decide which I would rather have Beta Nougat or rooted MM
Best would be rooted Nougat .. [emoji228]

Hey, i didn't quite find what i was looking for so opened a new thread, I currently have an S7 G930F running COSP Pie U5ESD2 ROM, I wanted to know if a downgrade to Nougat or Marshmallow is possible,I don't care if it's an official samsung ROM or a custon one.
Thanks in advance, LSGio.

The bootloader version in that ROM is version 5, "U5". If you can find a nougat or mallow ROM at version 5 or above then yes you can downgrade.

You can grab your official firmware from Sammobile and flash it using a PC with Odin. It's quite simple, just look it up on YouTube. :fingers-crossed:
I bought the unlocked USA version of the S8+ (SM-G955U1) Pie 9.0 Snapdragon i checked many threads but didnt find about root ... so this version root available or not ??
I've been looking around trying to find a root method for my Galaxy S8+ with android 9 bl version 8 but I have only come across root methods for nougat. Do I just downgrade and work from there?

If you read those guides They all say out right you can only achieve root on 7 no higher if its a US device either root and stay on 7 or you are out of luck
