I have rooted Samsung Galaxy S5 on build PA2 (downgraded from marshmallow) 5.1.1 lollipop using kingroot. Initially wouldn't work but it worked when I booted the device after being dead for days and during a flood of notifications, I ran kingroot again and during the process the device soft rebooted, which seemed like a good sign. Once I rebooted I went to kingroot again and it completed the root process (though it reported failure) but I went to root checker and it confirmed that I have root. Also on full reboot, I see on the initial boot screen a grey lock that is unlocked and the word custom right below it. I was able to successfully change my boot animation and install busybox and use other root applications. Xposed does not work! I have not found any recoveries that will work with the device so I can't do custom roms (yet). I have not checked if Knox was tripped yet. If you have the PA2 update and want to root, try kingroot, it worked for me. I have not found out how to change superuser without removing root because I dislike kingroot su, I tried doing so using supersu but supersu failed. I hope for further progress on the root of this version and some recoveries for this build.
I have Samsung galaxy s7, MODEL number: SM-G930F.
and i want to root my device in order to get the tombstone file that is located in the /data directory.
I already tried to root my device using Odin and the device got stuck in boot forever after the root finished, showing the samsung icon.
I'am asking for a good tested toturial to do the root.
Thank you.
Install TWRP through odin, then flash Magisk through TWRP along with no-verity-opt-encrypt. Easier method with a safety net pass.

Hello,
I am looking for a guide to root and install TWRP on Sprint Note 5 upgraded to Android 7.0.
Some background information:
Note 5 was on Android 5.11 and was having random reboots, caused by unstable Noble kernel.
I used the following guide to root, install TWRP and stable Beastmode kernel.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-note5/general/how-to-root-instructions-t3187895
Note 5 went south after i attempted to install Xposed on rooted 5.1.1.
I experienced bootloops and was never able to boot in 5.1.1 ever again.
I failed to flash stock 5.1.1 to Note 5, despite multiple tar's and versions of ODIN.
I though my phone was unrecoverable.
Fast forward 2 days and i was able to successfully flash Android 7.0 via ODIN.
I can successfully boot into Android 7.0, though i prefer to be rooted.
Now i need to root Android 7.0, install TRWP, upgrade to stable kernel, and install Xposed, if possible.
Knox has already been tripped and I was not going to use Samsung Pay anyway.
Phone details:
Model number: SM-N920P
Software version: N920PVPU3DQC5 (Nougat 7.0)
Hardware version: N920P.04
Baseband version: N920PVPU3DQC5
Build Number: NRD90M. N920PVPU3DQC5
Please let me know if more information is needed.
Thank you in advance.

Use Odin to root with c.f. auto root just Google cf auto root and download the file for your phone you know the rest. After being rooted you can install twrp with the official app in the play store they give you simple instructions but what they don't tell you is DO NOT FLASH THE .img.tar file FLASH the .img file only .tar files are for pc and will soft brick you. Again FLASH the .img file to recovery. Bang you have twrp if you can't get into recovery download quick reboot from play store works great im rooted with twrp on note 5 7.0 nougat that's all I can confirm. I accomplished this all by reading the forums for 2 days
Anything with CF Auto Root is obsolete. Just follow this guide: http://galaxynote5root.com/galaxy-n...galaxy-note-5-on-android-7-0-nougat-w-magisk/
SAMSUNG ANTI ROOT REMOVAL OR ANY OTHER SUPER USER APP IS NOT NEEDED ANYMORE. JUST INSTALL THE MAGISK .ZIP AND REBOOT.
Files are:
Latest TWRP: https://dl.twrp.me/nobleltespr/
Magisk 15.3: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
This will work for ALL NOUGAT builds, including the latest DRA1 (I've tested it myself) This phone is over 2 years old so development is kinda dead to be honest. There is only one custom kernel available here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...nel-twisted-note-7-0-nougat-april-15-t3590280

Its not obsolete I got a free hotspot buddy. I dont need supersu remover because i dont care about fancy samsung or andriod pay i will continue to use cf auto root until its exhausted because i have never bricked a phone using it
Thank you all for your replies.
I was able to root via CF Auto Root and installed TWRP recovery.
Does the free hotspot need to be flashed via Recovery?
Thank you in advance.
Hey! So let me get straight to the point . . . I used Odin flashed the TWRP recovery, installed SuperSU zip, installed NexusOS-9 ROM, then installed OpenGApps. However, my SuperSU app did not show up and Root Checker says I did not successfully root my phone. I have a Samsung S6 SM-G920T. Did I "root" my phone yet? and how come it shows up as not rooted? Please help. The Custom ROM and Gapps all work but it just says not rooted. Thanks in advance!
Hey Guys I don't know how to root SM-T585 android version 8.1.0. If anyone let me know please
If a Custom Recovery as TWRP is available for the phone then you may root Android by means of Magisk.
