That's correct. I have a rom that I want to use that's on Marshmallow and since I know I can't downgrade from bootloader version 5 I'm sending this phone back that just got to my house today.
Edit: I know I said bootloader version 6 but I meant the first bootloader version with Android Marshmallow.

Damn good luck in your search I'm still on marshmallow myself cause these newer android versions have difficulty with mods like viperFX and more importantly xposed can't leave home without that.. [emoji817]

Yeah it sucks and everyone on Ebay and Amazon is claiming it is and it gets here on bootloader version 5 no where near Marshmallow! I figured I'd try here for a change since I know there's got to be some people like me that deal with phones every day and probably have one in a drawer somewhere! Hopefully anyway! Thanks though!
You might do some more research. I have heard that while Odin won't let you downgrade a bootloader, TWRP will. The "lock" isn't in the phone; it is in Odin. I haven't tried it (or needed to), so I'm not certain that it works. This means, of course, that you need to find a ROM (w/ bootloader) or standalone bootloader in TWRP zip format.

Will the Stylo 1 get Nougat 7.0 or possibly 7.1? if so, when? and if it does, will it overhaul the ugly looking UI and make it look as good as the Stylo 2/ LG G5? Thanks
Which model/carrier do you have?
I doubt it but the T-Mobile/MetroPCS version is more likely to get it than the other versions (better specs), IF (and that is a BIG IF) we do get it.
Again, I highly doubt it because it had its one update. I hope they surprise me though.

Okay so just updated to nougat for AT&T have tried all the methods posted with no luck gets stuck on the s7 edge boot logo pretty much a soft brick causing me to have to reload the u software then upgrade to nougat again can anyone give me insight on how to root? I hate all this bloat, or would it be simpler to just use aroma installer?

This is actually my first Android didn't know about all that lol till I started researching more on modifying the phone. So in other words there is no known working root ? No complaints I can wait for the systemless root just not a huge fan of the eng bootloader.
even if u get the 935u. The bootloader is locked, all USA s7 and s7 edges are bootloader locked.

Didn't know that I'll keep that in mind I'm glad I got the exynos version
God I wish I had the exynos version I actually had my eye on that superman Rom the found out about the locked boot loader as of right now and the sound of it we'll never have the privilege of it either. I mean we got the echoe Rom but it was laggy and abandoned which I dont blame them if it's that big of a pain. I like root to remove things I don't use to replace them with things I do plus love tweaking it to my liking have yet to use xposed which I know there are a few unofficial versions that I've read will work flashing through flashfire but gotta get root.

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.

Yes it certainly did
I really want to root and I am searching online since 4 days but couldn't find any clear information that i can fallow (or because of my lack of knowledge)
I don't care if i need to downgrade, or give up from "fancy" features. All i want a control on a device that i pay thousand $.
So my s8+ has:
One UI version : 1
Android Version: 9
Baseband Version: G955WVLU5CSC1 with BELL
I am new to rooting but big supporting of Open software, and idea of meaning of actually owning a device.
Please help, or any direction.
Thanks.
I have been dreaming there would have a rooting method since 2017 ( I got the same phone as you but from Telus - I paid off and now switched to Rogers). As far as I know, since our phones' bootloader can't be unlocked, we can kiss goodbye for rooting. I told myself that being a two years old phone, if there would have a method it would have been surfaced. This S8+ would be my last Sam**** phone, I am preparing to sell it on eBay and switch to something like OnePlus ( they are the most easy phone to root).

After you get safe strap you can then do some magic a hacks and acheive a rooted nougat system. Again you cannot root oreo or pie with this method. But it does allow you to do 1 of 3 options. Root with nougat and rev 5 combo bootloader , install a oreo system and rev 5 oreo bootloader, or install pie with rev 5 bootloader. As of right now all 3 systems have a rev 5 bootloader

If it was popular then there would be threads and TWRP and ROMs but the fact that there's not tells you, it's not....
I think you are righ
I bought s10+ over it
I gave up on it. And the developer that did a Magisk flashable mod I think has also moved on. I tested for him but the device was not very popular. Thinking about trying to sell it or just gifting it to someone. Haven't even turned it on for weeks.
My SM-N935F NoteFE Floyd V5
DEX or HDMI support, is the most important feature for a DEVELOPER TO CREATE FOR NOTE 10LITE!Hardware wise is capable, but SOFTWARE is not permitting this feature. I hope that a DEVELOPER will be so kind to HELP on that!!!
And propably a valid twrp version to flash it!
maybe someone, i.e. @butchieboy ?, smart is capable of porting twrp to the Note 10 lite with this instruction which seems to be easy for linux users or with those skills. See here: https://appuals.com/how-to-port-twrp-for-android-without-source/
On my side I am a bit familiar with Android Image Kitchen for windows (so far only used for themeing twrp for other devices to my needs, which worked excellent) but the above guide says it should be done with AIK for Linux, so I am afraid to mix (brick) things up....

If it was as simple as stated in those instructions I would have had this fixed ages ago, but it is not. It relies on signatures that need to be generated to match the devices vbmeta.img file otherwise it will not boot. I tried this, but got nowhere with the signatures and little support from other devs to help me with creating the signatures. @butchieboy has a Magisk flashable I created to get some mods in the device but other things like screen mirroring or HDMI being fixed need to be done directly on the image of the device. I will release an R version of the latest firmware N770FXXS7DUB1_N770FOJM7DUB1_XSG, which is the one I have and release it soon.
Whats up Javix. I was testing Twrp for another developer a week ago. We got knowhere. I give up on the 10 lite as At&t has blocked it and i can no longer use it on my Network. So I basically have a Mint condition phone that is useless to me. Damn At&t are starting to do this with any F version device when you try to use it on their network it automatically suspends your number as an unauthorized device. I bought a S20FE unlocked bootloader Twrp and rooted. Good luck with 10 lite, mine is back in the box..lol

Hi there butchieboy!
If your N10Lite is of no use to you, is there a chance I can help with TWRP and ROMs?
I can help with TWRP (maybe official too) and porting ROMs. You can check my credentials as I have ported many roms to the Galaxy M30.
Let me know if you are interested. Message me on telegram @cha0scl0wn.
