really terrible news

Yet I see all the posts on the note 8 and the s5series with locked bootloaders and root weather it be samfail for the note or sampwnd on the s5 and why not with the j3 series? Is it because it's a cheap ass phone and the dev's dont want to waste time to try? I see more j3 and j7 phones flooding the market than the higher end phones so what gives?

Those devices had engineering firmware available the J327a does not.
However you may get lucky and be able to the flash the engineering firmware available for the J327T as these devices have the same specs.

bummer

I am working on a similar device to build lineage os for the at&t model, but I can't find the proprietary blobs to make it possible, as it fails with an error "do you have the right repo manifest?", can anyone help me?

[Firmware] G935UUEU4API3 Odin Files & Modded Odin

I know there's another thread for this but it's an absolute cluster F*** to make heads or tails of. I wanted to simplify things.
Simply download files, download modded Odin and put files in proper slots in Odin.
This is will give you stock U firmware with the latest PK1 modem. Root isn't what it used to be so I don't bother with it, please don't ask me for root files and instructions of this firmware.

Here's the modded Odin that I used. This is from the root thread and never once failed to flash anything on any device I've thrown at it: http://d-h.st/gsDA
Thank you for simplifying this process.
You're welcome. I'm here to help.... The other thread was too much of a mess!
Thanks joe3681, for all of your efforts.
Where online can I find a list of updates or a version history for the Samsung S7 Edge (T-mobile)?
so this will work with the latest update from November? and also what are the benefits of U firmware? I haven't been able to find any good info anywhere. i have rooted and flashed before lol i just haven't been in the game for a while
U firmware seems smoother, it's bloat free. Only real downside is no advanced messaging.

No, the U firmware is still the September security patch level. It's so much smoother/faster though. Especially rooted.
Thank you so much, this was obviously 100x easier to follow than the other thread.

I followed the O.P. in the post root issues thread, doing nothing more and nothing less than what they said to do. No lag, normal temperature.
Thank you
OP thank you for the easy to follow instructions. I just bought my SM-G935T from ebay. I noticed some lag with the S7 Edge and of course all the Samsung and T-Mobile bloatware.
I flashed all of the files then did a system cache wipe. I have not noticed lag so far and now have 20 GB of the 32 GB free.
One question though. Where will the phone check for updates? Will it get updates from Samsung or T-Mobile?
TWRP help
.
I just got my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge and have been doing a lot of reading here on XDA about this device. I have had all the galaxy's since Galaxy II.
I have rooted / custom recovery / custom ROM all of them. I know there basically is not much out yet as far as ROMS go for the S7e, but I would like to instal
TWRP and root the phone. I can not seem to get a straight answer as to how to do this exactly. Each "How-To" that I run into are a little bit different and scares
me a bit. If you could help me with any answers or links to my question(s) I would sure appreciate it.
1) I would like to odin into the phone the latest TWRP but I am not 100% sure which file to flash.
2) I would like to ROOT the phone if it is fairly safe at this point in development, but again I have heard of at least 2 different methods to do this.
3) Please advise on which file to use and/or method. My phone DOES connect up with my PC just fine via USB and I have ADB working also.​

Spend more time reading around the forums before you try anything, but to answer your questions:
1) TWRP not possible on TMobile S7/S7E
2) Root is possible, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/how-to/how-to-root-s7-edge-t3410470

Well if you continue searching and reading some more, you will see that twrp only works on non locked bootloaders. Any carrier driven Samsung device has a locked bootloader and twrp will not work. We have the snapdragon and not the exynos. If you need to have twrp then you need to get an S7 edge Exynos version. There is no working custom recovery for the snapdragon version phones as of yet.

Yeah, you'd think! The international is the one that gets everything first.
The unlocked firmware favors T-Mobile though offering T-Mobile customers features that other users don't get.

Nope. It is highly unlikely that a custom kernel or even rom to be made for this device as no one is developing anything on it. The device has reached end of life considering it is a budget device after all.

No problem and i am aware since she helped make sampwned32 for the sm-j327t and sm-j327t1 I found the root method that was used on the s8 variant with a locked bootloader and brought it up and even tested the root method on the device and it worked. But a month later samsung released a new update that patched it. If it wasn't for ashyx converting the files from ARM64 to ARM this method would have never worked. Also after samsung patched the root method they only released one more security update and ended up cancelling the android oreo update for metropcs and tmobile after we was told our device would get it. Oh boy i was pretty pissed. Like come on samsung you could atleast unlock the device's bootloader and allow us to make our own custom roms which would be alot better and would be oreo based. It is sad how samsung forgot about us and didn't even bother to release a new phone to the metropcs and tmobile market in the budget area. The mid range J7 Prime got more love than this device did fr.

How do I root a Samsung Galaxy S7 Verizon (SM-G930V) Android Oreo 8.0?

How do I do it
I got the same exact one 3 days ago. It's on 8.0.0 now. I have been reading a lot to find answers how to root or install twrp. It looks like there is not a straight forward answer. Just development guides that are not so clear on if there is are for sure way to root or unlock bootloader.
Everything looks to lead me to the same answer. Snapdragon us variants like ours are bootloader blocked so no twrp. Can we use safestrap? What can we do to root and install custom? Even if it's it's a touchwiz. I have an s4 I'm also playing with. I wish my s7 could do what the the s4 does. But samsung us trying to let carriers like Verizon block our bootloaders Hendering our abilities to use the phones like we want. It sucks.
I hope for a method soon myself. I hope that someone can steer us the right way.

You echo my Frustrations. It feels good not to be the only one thinking these things. I think the reason there aren't any straightforward answers is because people are afraid of being sued. Why stop there? It begins with the owner of the phone who wants to root in the first place. They should sue themselves.
it doesn't seem logical to me. If I'm driving and, God forbid, I kill someone with my car do the people that taught me to drive get sued? it isn't an exactly perfect Analogy, but it's enough to start discussion, anywhere but here on this thread. LOL
Another thing is that phones are already very customized in that there are so many of them and they all function so differently even with the same ROM on a different provider Network does different things. it's probably difficult to give you the exact perfect set of instructions for your specific phone. Therefore knowing about Android and Linux and stuff is very helpful for filling in the gaps I will inevitably have. I have no such training and the times I have delved into it I"ve become completely lost.
A rudimentary understanding I do have. So I choose settings with the mindset of increasing the device lifespan, but nothing monumental.

The Qualcomm variants (your phone) are a little more difficult to root and there are several guides online how to do it but you have to make sure the guide says it is to root RK2 firmware on Oreo. RK2 has the December security patch i believe so there may not be a specific guide for that firmware yet but you can try and earlier guide which still works on your device after the December security patch.
This is to root G930V on Nougat from Jan 9 this year, it may work on Oreo too https://www.skyneel.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s7-verizon-sm-g930v-twrp-recovery
You could of course flash G930U firmware too which is unbranded USA and is known to work on Verizon devices. Sammobile XAA and USC. There is a modified version of Odin 13 to flash Verizon phones.

Is S10E can be root?

https://myphoneupdate.com/root-galaxy-s10e-unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-recovery/
Can we root S10E with this link? I just found it on the web.
Seems like they copy and paste this "manual" for each and every (Samsung?) phone. First point : find me a home-button on the S10(e) ...
I don't believe TWRP is available yet on the S10, nevertheless the S10+ recently got rooted https://www.xda-developers.com/exynos-samsung-galaxy-s10-rooted-magisk/
S10e won't be far off
does anyone have tried the patch boot image magisk method ?useless to try ?
Check it out!! https://twitter.com/topjohnwu/status/1112611158735966209?s=19
The magisk Mastermind has struck gold again! This is no April fool's day joke! We are about to see payloads galore!!
Great work John Wu!
Why is it that I can't find any information on the status of the snapdragon version of the s10e root/bootloader unlock? I love this phone but I really need root. Does anyone know where I can find information or status updates?

From my understanding, if your model has the option to unlock the bootloader from developer options, then you can root. If you have a snapdragon varient, the only model that has the ability to unlock the bootloader is the SM-G9700 which is only sold in hong kong/china. I believe all Exynos models have the ability to unlock the bootloader, not sure though.
No one has rooted the snap dragon variant, but I'm sure it's possible. I just don't understand why there's no information or status updates on it.

Im pretty sure people are using the Exynos method on snapdragon variants that have the unlockable bootloader.

Don't be so sure about unlocking the US Snapdragon devices. There hasn't been a real root since the S7 series, the S8 root only works on some older bootloaders and crashing a lot, while the S9/S10 have nothing so far. Without an unlockable bootloader, it's extremely difficult to do anything. On the S7 it was possible via special engineering bootloaders, but that trick doesn't work on the S8/S9/S10 series coupled Samsung's new bootloader security measure via "VaultKeeper". Even on the Exynos versions it's a struggle to run Magisk, on every reboot you have to go through a bunch of steps to basically re-unlock the bootloader. It's basically game over rooting new US flagship Samsung devices, therefore you're better off with the international/global Exynos "F" versions.

How to updare international firmware for FOLD2

I want to install the international rom for my FOLD2 machine, the model number is SM-F916N (korea). I want to wipe the Korean carrier apps like an international version. Please guide me. Thank you . I will donate if can help me .
Hope I didn't get your hopes up with this reply. Only want to say that I too am in this situation, except mine is from China. I'm hoping there's a way to flash or mod it so somehow get the normal international version (or US), as the galaxy store is locked to China, which cripples the phone. Here's hoping someone has figured this out...

Have you actually done this or know anyone who has, or are you simply assuming it's that easy?
I have done several times for many of my devices like Note 9, A50, J7...
It is easy. You have to keep minimum 60% battery to do this
