Ask Samsung. Samsung says it is up to the provider to unlock it, it is a provider choice, the provider says it is up to Samgung... so for now no way out

You need to tell us more info. What firmware version on your device when you bricked? Can you still get into download mode? BTW, there is no way to unlock bootloder if you're on 4.3/4.4 firmware. You could unlock if using third party service for a fee of $50.00.

Please don't say F*c* you easy unlock when it was not the EZ unlock app, but you who hard bricked your phone. There was plenty of info around these forums warning about the bootloader being locked and the fact that use of the EZ unlock app would result in a brick. All you had to do to avoid this situation was do a little research ahead of time. Here is just one such thread where the information was readily available:

Got an Unlocked Tmobile S6 Need to root

How can I root my unlocked Tmobile S6 to work on the ATT network????
you seem to be confused...root is gaining control of your phone aka jailbreaking...unlock is unlocking your phone for usage on other carriers.
No. I bought an unlocked t mobile s6. I need to gain root. Then put it in the att network

Root has nothing to do with unlock! If you bought your phone unlock then it will work on other carrier...you seem to be misinformed on a lot of things please take time to understand those terminology. Yes rooting will trip knox.

Sim locked S7 unlock

Hello,
I purchased recently a Galaxy S7 from Ebay, but have seen after the purchase, that it is sim locked from EE. I never before had a sim locked device. So my question now: Is it possible to flash over the sim locked rom a international rom with odin or is it necessary to unlock it with a code?
Thank you!

To unlock any network locked phone you have to buy a code for it or you give it to software/repair center to unlock it with a gsm box
Network locked is a lock which is stored in efs partition not in firmware or ROM so flashing or changing rom doesn't unlock it

It should be under the Verizon model. Usually tracfone does not lock the bootloaders on their variant. On another thread a guy flashed the verizon firmware to this model with no bricks and issue. but doing that WILL lock the bootloader. I hope he responds to my post. want to know to what extent it was flashed and if knox got tripped.

would you be able to show me the right direction to where he got the method to root his.? also if you learn anything else from him . can you let me know. so this mean I have an unlock bootloader? doesn't that mean I can root easier?

I should be able to get one of these mids august hopefully and will use it as a test device to see what bricks it and what hack can be done. In the past tracfone has release the SM-S975L(Tracfone Unlocked bootloader) which equals to an SGH-I337 (AT&T Locked bootloader), they released the S5 & S6 which equal to the SM-G900V and SM-G920V, both have Unlocked bootloaders. So i dnt think the S7 is any different and equals to the SM-G930V. Any root method that works for the SM-G930V should work on the SM-G930VL. But again this is just my say based on past experiences, i wont know until i get the phone and try all this. For what I know so far he was able to flash the complete verizon firmware which i think will flash a locked bootloader and no going back after it.
Yes will share my experiences.

So i was able to flash the full latest verizon firmware and fully ended up converting the phone to an SM-G930V. SO provided that you flash the firmware on which root was achieved for the SM-G930V, then there is really no stopping you from rooting this phone. As expected due to flashing the verizon firmware the phone has a locked bootloader now but root was achieved regardless.
Proceed at your own risk.
I have the Sm-g930vl (tracfone) and would like to confirm the bootloader is unlocked. I can boot into both recovery and download mode but cannot connect with fastboot to get device info. Is there another way to check?

Bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked. Samsung devices do no use fastboot.
edit build.prop

Thanks for the info. Do you know if I can edit the build.prop with adb without rooting? I've never messed with Samsung. Seems a different beast.

No way you can modify build.prop without root. What are you trying to accomplish?

I was hoping to enable hotspot. I've read where people have flashed the 930u firmware and can enable it but I'm already on Nougat even on tracfone firmware.

I see, the only way I see this working for you is by third apps or flash a firmware that supports it.

Wasn't sure if it's possible to unlock the bootloader while still being Sim locked. Thanks for letting me know, guess I'll wait till we find a way to sim unlock before doing the bootloader.

Once you pay off the phone. It can then be sim unlocked. The other way is to pay someone to sim unlock the phone.
