It's been a while since I first rooted but isn't there a flashable zip that has to be done at the same time https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770

Yes there is root, flash the kernel from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...d-development/kernel-stockmod-kernel-t3100395 using Odin and then flash twrp 2.8.7.1 using flashify or Odin.
I have had root on 5.1.1 since last weekend.
Is there any faster way to get this firmware?
Now, I am downloading from samsung updates but it's too slow and will be taken 8 hours. Can I get the firm. through any cloud share?

I take it this method trips knox (not that I mind that much)?

Yes it does.
I made the error of upgrading to 5.1.1 (S6 on EE) before rooting and now I understand Ping Pong won't work?
So can someone suggest the easiest way to root? I'd rather not trip knox but I will if I need to.
I saw a post about rooting without tripping knox but it lost the fingerprint scanner and I'd rather not lose any functionality.
Thanks!
I have the same question. I don't need samsung pay, but I don't want to broke the fingerprint sensor.

Flashing TWRP through Odin is really easy:
Run Odin
put your phone in d/l mode and connect it
choose the TWRP file to flash
press start
After that, you have got a custom recovery menu from where you can install a clean ROM or a custom kernel.
Literallly, the whole procedure takes just 2 clicks in Odin and 1 Minute.
Make sure you use the latest version of both Odin and TWRP and you're fine; i reinstalled some Samsung apps and features like fingerprint scanner; working flawless.

I don't know what COH2 means, but they write:
Supported devices
SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 AND S6 EDGE, all variants! (except US Cellular, Verizon and Sprint S6 and S6 Edge)

So i think it should work...

Does it "trip" KNOX?
Edit: Yep, it does for those wondering.
The way I get root is to flash via Odin, Unikernel then you will have root on your stock rom. If you then want a custom recovery I use Flashify from the playstore to flash twrp recovery, it's so easy and so quick and works on firmware 5.0.2 and the latest 5.1.1
Thanks for the advice all, will this wipe all my data during the process?

No but it will trip knox.
Thanks to all, the ODIN method worked a treat, very easy and quick and didn't lose any of my data.
Coming back to this, I just noticed that this method of root has changed SELinux to permissive. Why is that? I'm not too up on these things but doesn't that mean it is less protected from malware?
Hi everyone!
I just got my Nougat 7.0 update a week ago in Hungary.
I would like to know, is there any method to root the device WITHOUT UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER?
I read that is possible like this way: run fastboot boot recovery.img and flash the superuser zip there
Is this ok to root my A9?
Thank you the answers in advance.
No the method you outlined has long been disabled

Hi to all.
A friend of mine has samsung s6 sm-g920f currently running 6.01 (mmb29k.g920fxxs5dqc1) and wants to root his phone. Since I do not own this phone, I would be glad if someone could help me, with the steps required (for unlocking bootloader, flash twrp and SuperSu), so I could use search more efficiently.
Thanks in advance!

I did check this thread, but I am a bit confused of the prerequisites....
I have only phones, with standard procedure : unlock bootloader, flash TWRP. flash SuperSU ...
Sm g920f has an unlocked bootloader so don't worry about that part.

Hey All,
I have been searching here for the past hour but only found root methods for older firmwares. Can the latest N920TUVU4EQG3 be rooted? Any help would be appreciated.
