Stock experience in S8+ - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Hi All .. Appreciate the XDA community as XDA has always been the place for anything android for me..
I have been using Samsung S8+ and i love the phone. Recently i have been observing a lot of lag and i feel having stock android on this hardware would be wonderful.
Is there any stock android rom available with ODIN support which wouldnt trip the knox ..
PS. My S8+ is a Exynos variant SM-G955F model and i use it with Nova
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Need help rooting! Thanks. [Galaxy S6 g920f]

I want to root my samsung galaxy s6 non-edge - g920f.
The problem is, I found a video where you download the twrp from google drive, I couldn't download that file since too many users had already downloaded it.
I then searched for a one-click root, which failed since the ones I found don't support 6.0.1 or are only for the edge.
Would someone mind helping me? Thanks soo much in advance everyone.
this might help
I just recently rooted my gs6 running 6.0.1 by cf-autoroot. Just type cf-autoroot android 6.0.1 and it should pop up . if it doesnt then hit me up i will send you the download link. its quite easy so you shouldnt have any problems.
Here is the TWRP;

Hello guys, i want to root too, but for rooting with CF is it required to have a unlocked bootloader? And how to unlock my bootloader because I'll be flashing some custom ROMs?

[Completed] root G920I S6 without tripping knox 6.0.1

Samsung S6
Build id MMB29K.G920IDVU3EPGG
Model # SM-G920I
Version 6.0.1
Have searched through pingpong/kingroot (only 5.x), chainfire (trips knox) and copious websites/tutorials but seem to find that build number is not supported with any root options.
What options do I have to root the above samsung S6 without tripping knox?
Thks
Any info would be appreciated.

Hi and we to xda-assist,
actually your possibilities are very limited as you running a unsupported firmware, the exploits that ping-pong uses are closed on your firmware and I doubt that downgrading is a alternative because once you have the unsupported firmware version running on your device even the bootloader will be upgraded and you can't downgrade without relatively great risk of seriously damaging the phone, if can be done at all.
So next is probably to decide how important root privileges are to you and if you're willing to sacrifice your warranty for that..
I would nonetheless recommend you to ask in this forum again, may be someone with the same device has a progressive idea and can help you further.

By the way, it's always a good idea to research the device of interest regarding root & custom roms before you buy it..
Good luck

US Cellular S7 questions

Hi all,
I have a S7 (flat) that I bought from US Cellular. I know how to root Samsung devices via adb and odin. My question is there a stable working recovery and a safe (non knox tripping or any other warranty voiding) way to root?
It seems there is not way to avoid Knox getting triggered, If warranty so important, wait till the warranty expires, and the root, or wait till a new root comes along with guaranties that will not trigger knox

Simple question about rooting s6 and s6 edge

So i have a verizon s6 running 7.0
baseband g920vvrs4dqk1
build # nrd90m.g920vvrs4dqk1
security patch nov.1 2017
I also have an at&t s6 edge running 7.0
baseband g925aucs7erc1
build # nrd90m.g925aucs7erc1
security patch march 1 2018
So I've been searching for months looking for info on xda and the web to get root for them but from everything I've found says it's not possible without tripping knox.. but everything seems to either brick, boot-loop or is not legit.
What I want to know is:
Can I get root for either one of them?
I'm not worried about the warranty since they are already expired or Knox since if I can get root I'd like to get rid of it all together and I really want them rooted so I can get a debloat Rom for them and play around with them..
So can someone please help me and give me some good news for Christmas... thanks for any time, help and/or advise it's greatly appreciated and respected
You can't root any AT&T and Verizon variant of S6 series (S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge Plus) no matter what.

Because the locked bootloader? That sucks.. was hoping it was just because of the warranty and no one wanting to avoid it...

Yeah, the root tool is free. But not others. Just have a try.
Ok I'll give it a shot...
