Hi!
I have rooted many phones in the past and installed custom roms.
However I am unable to figure this out after I moved to USA and got this Verizon phone which is super slow.
So I got this firmware R16NW.G935VVRUACSF2 it's running on S7 edge with Android 8.0.0
Can I root, install custom ROMS, remove all bloatware or install some slim ROMs on this?
Or do I have to live with this junk phone as is?
Thanks!

I recently rooted my sprint galaxy s7. Now i want to flash a new rom to it but I can't find the resources i need to figure out how to do so. Is it even possible this
early in the roots development? Somone mentioned flashfire to me. But im afraid to use that with out knowing whether it will work. I can uninstall bloatware now and store my apps on sd but i would like a whole new operating system. Any suggestions?
Rom development is dead for the us s7's, there aren't any roms to flash.
That sucks. It was one of the big reasons i rooted.
Hey Guys,
i'm owning an Galaxy S7 (G930F) and it's have a Vodafone Brand(Germany), (boot logo and some apps from Vodafone).
I'm really pissed of the update schedule from Samsung, and want a root to, so i decided to install a custom Rom.
But my latest custom rom phone was some years ago ( old Samsung GT 8150 Galaxy W) I think since it have changed many
I want a ROM that have an auto updater, i had that on the old GT 8150, when an update was ready, it was a easy way to install.
Its possible that knox will not be triggered?
Which Version of Rom can i install? I had some issues with my 8150, when i started testing some ROMs, some Roms had the boot bug, and then i tried to install the Stock ROM, but then was no able to boot.
On this time this Infos says me S7.
Android 7.0
Basicbandversion: G930FXXU1DQH6
Build: NRD90M.G930FXXu1DQH6
Knox 2.7.1

Sorry for that bad english,
Thanks and regards,
Daniel
Custom ROMs require unlocking the bootloader, which triggers knox.
is there a simple way to get root on my S7 then?

Hi,
After *days* of research, I finally was able to root my Galaxy S6 SM-G920V(erizon) on Android 5.1.1. I was also able to install FlashFire. I'm having trouble finding any custom ROMs though, I tried to flash a stock Oreo ROM but it failed so I had to go through the process of rooting the phone again, which is kinda lengthy and I don't want to have to do each time.
Anyway, if anyone was successful in installing a custom ROM on their Verizon S6, please tell me what ROM you're using so I could check it out.
Hi,
I just bought a Like new S6.
I thought I was getting a factory unlocked device, but I got a Verizon unlocked phone (for other carriers) and full of bloatware from Samsung and Verizon.
I can still return it, but before doing so, I was looking for options about rooting or installing a different ROM.
it has Nougat 7.0, Firmware G920VVRS4DQI1, Kernel 3.10.61
As I understand, currently there's no way to modify anything in this model, right?
Should I return it?
Thank you for your replies
I've recently been given a Galaxy S7 (Verizon branded) phone that I'd like to root and put a custom ROM on. I haven't done this in 3-4 years and based on what little searching I've done it seems this is workable for the S7 phone. I'm familiar (but very rusty) on the rooting and custom ROM process, but I know it will come back to me once I get into it.
I'd also like to have the "SIM card missing" message go away permanently if I root and custom ROM the phone. I will never use it with any service. Can someone enlighten me on what you feel is a good ROM for this phone and if the SIM message can be disabled since I'm never wanting to use it as a phone (on a service)?
You can't get a full blown custom ROM on Verizon variants because of snapdragon bootloader lock, only Exynos has custom ROMs.
You can get root using an engineering bootloader but it depends on what version your firmware is at.
You'll want to check out the Verizon S7 forums for how to do that https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s7

Thanks Beanvee. I think I'm trying to use a sledge hammer to fix an issue anyway.
I'm never going to use cellular so I was thinking a ROM would enable me to turn off the "No SIM card message" or have some feature built into it.
There might be other ways to do this besides rooting and a ROM. Thanks.
