Hey everyone,
So this is pretty straight foreward, I'm attempting to root my Galaxy Core Prime (G360T, from T-Mobile in US) and I have had absolutely zero luck finding ANYTHING related that model number.
I've found plenty of stuff here, but it is all related to the G360H, G, and even the T1 (i think?) I've tried Kingo, Odin, and a few other things and I'm getting absolutely no where.
I'm wondering if anyone out here has had any luck with rooting this device in particular, or if maybe there is something I'm missing? I'm pretty new to the idea of rooting devices but I'm a proficient technically so I'm not exactly sure what is going on.
Is it T-Mobile software or something blocking the ability to root? I can't believe there is that much of a difference between my phone and say the G360H.
Thanks in advanced for the help, as I'm totally clueless at this point.

There are many of us using the MetroPCS version G360T1 that will gladly try any root method you get going. Feel free to contact directly if you need some testing help. While waiting for root, I tried Package Disabler Pro 3.7 that was released September 15. It works fine on the G360T1, although it says "Custom" under "Device status" in "About Device -> Status." Haven't gone to Download Mode to see if the triangle is set or not, but I'm guessing the flash counter has been tripped. I'm not worried about it too much, and it may have been tripped with some other attempt to root the device. Still, this app was just what I needed to disable all the junkware and still have a smooth working Lollipop 5.1.1 while waiting for the real goodies.

The thing is i got g3601 and its running kitkat and no update availble on it ??? so i am porting 5.1 for it.Recovery has been patched up and working kinda fine but need to fix alot of issues.normally i dont develop for mid range mobiles but my brother got one so that is why i started with this one.my first projects are z3 + and xperia lines.I will let you know when it is completed for testing.
Hmm, I thought this was for SM-G360T and the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime that is out for T-Mobile and running Lollipop 5.x. Is the G3601 a typo or different model? The MetroPCS G360T1 will work fine with the firmware and files from T-Mobile G360T because they are the same device and even same network provider. Anyway, it looks like someone was kind enough to modify the kernel source code the Samsung posted just a week or two ago. Here is the news, but be warned that it will trip the KNOX flag:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-core/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g360t1-5-1-1-t3203522
I put my G360T1 in download mode and it still says official and no warning triangle. I mentioned that it said custom in the About Phone page after doing other terminal entries and running Package Disabler Pro 3.7. Some may want to wait to root the device until there is a deodex'd rom out there to run xposed framework. I like the slimed down stock 5.1.1 and there are a bunch of garbage programs hogging the decent entry level device resources. More news to come...

My specs:
Model #: SM-360T
Android Version: 5.1.1
Baseband Version: G360TUVU1AOF9
I migrated from Nokia 521 - Windows 8.1 phone to this Android device because of the litany of apps I could use for productivity. I am highly disappointed that I am unable to revoke permissions of applications to resources I think they don't need. So, I basically use phone to make calls and text. If someone has successfully rooted THIS smartphone version, please advise. I'm a little technical, too.
Try this: https://autoroot.chainfire.eu. find your model and download the file you need, unzip it then put your phone in download mode and use odin 3.7 to send it to the phone. That outta be enough. I have not rooted this particular device in a while but I have rooted plenty of others using that method and it works like a charm every time. I just did a quick look up and your model is listed there. Give it a try and post your results.
Thank you so much, Geevil!!!
Appreciate your response.

Hello how would one root the sm-g360t and get custom recovery on it ?
Sent from my SM-G360T using Tapatalk
I have the sm g360t1, though no computer to connect the phone to. I see this phone listed in the cf-auto root repository linked above- not sure if that method needs a computer. King root may have worked, though the root gone by when using w0lfdroid's
Kingroot removal/supersu installer. It worked on orher phones.
King root is such spyware. I really want to try something else...

Yes King Root is bad. Pretty much like malware for your device. Don't use cf-auto-root either, as it's kind of a generic root and doesn't really function properly. I'm helping people constantly fix their devices after either tryung King or CF. Use Trapkernel to root the SM-G360T1 & SM-G360T. It's quick and easy and roots the device with no problems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62859013 Here is the recovery you should use too in case anyone's wondering. You flash it the same way as root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=66266209
I recommend using version 3.0.1-0 though, as version 3.0.2-0 has had problem flashing certain roms for some reason.
Thanks bogarty, I was able to root and flash custom recovery on my phone with both links you provided here.. I have the T-Mobile version (SM-G360T) but everything went well
Dont know if ppl still trying to root this device but I just found out that you can download the rooting file trough chainfire for this model. Here´s the link: https://download.chainfire.eu/767/C...to-Root-cprimeltetmo-cprimeltetmo-smg360t.zip
Why do that when there is a root method for this device.
Follow this thread here for all your root needs for this device

Only way to get root on 5.1.1 thus far is by flashing TWRP recovery.
If you are an amateur to this sort of thing I would highly suggest not to do that.
It will void your warranty permanently by tripping KNOX which can't be "un-tripped"
May I ask why you think you need/want root?
I want to root my galaxy s6 as I see some good custom roms and want to try them.I've had some android phones before like the galaxy note 4,galaxy note 3,htc one m8 and galaxy nexus and rooted them.Just curious on how to root my gs6 with the XXU2BOGG firmware.Does the 5.1.1 root method supports my firmware?

Okay then, as long as you aware of the risks..
Rooting isn't device dependent, it's just software. It's supported on any firmware as long as you have TWRP installed. It just installs SuperSU for you into the system files.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/orig-development/twrp-t3080940
Pretty sure TWRP is supported on all models of S6/Edge, they all share the same hardware as each other.
Just flash it with Odin version 3.10.6.
Grab it here ZeroFLTE represents all S6 models except Sprint model which require their own special one (no idea why)
You then follow the Odin install method, making sure you're using 3.10.6. Otherwise more than likely will not work.
After installation of TWRP and then booting into TWRP you will be faced with the "SuperSU is not installed, would you like to install it?"
.. And done.
Er, actually I think that appears when when you go to restart via TWRP menu
But yeah.. best of luck, don't blame me if your phone explodes into a fire ball that goes nuclear and destroys the world.. Or simply bricks it
Edit: Wait are you talking about the Chainfire root method? If you are you may as well not even consider that if you're planning on custom firmware installs.. TWRP is your best bet because it isn't device/firmware specific like CF. And you need TWRP for firmware installs anyway..

Assuming it doesn't boot loop with unikernel (all reports say it's fine) then yeah you won't have any dramas with root via TWRP.. Like I said it's just software, the boot loop comes from Samsung being slippery Gypsies and modifying their kernels to basically stop people from modifying system partitions. Hence the need for a custom kernel to bypass that crap. You'll be fine

Sorry for delayed response.. Yes flashing a firmware tar. md5 will reset the system partition back to full stock and replace the recovery, kernel, modem etc.
Just download one corresponding to your device ie.. SM-G92XX where the first X is either a 5 or 0 and the second is the country or region the phone was intended for. I keep the latest firmware for my device and country (not carrier because it has too much bloatware) around at all times to undo any screw ups and start again

Hello everyone,
I just got my new S7 from Telus and my goal now is:
Root the phone
Install a clean stock ROM (bloatware-free)
Now I've been reading a bit but I'm a little unsure whether I'm looking at the best solution out there, or even if I'm on the right track.
These are the 2 options that I'm leaning towards following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/sm-g930-exynos-cf-auto-root-t3337353
Can you tell me if the TWRP route is the best to follow?
Also, I can't seem to find a Stock ROM, can you point me to the right one for my phone? (Sorry, my searching and Googling skills needs an upgrade.)
Installing twrp wipes the phone, so you lose everything. If you install cfroot first on the other hand, you can backup your stuff with titanium backup and other apps and then install twrp and restore your apps at the end.

I'm ok with the wipe as I just got the phone today so I have nothing important there.
So would you suggest that I use TWRP over cfroot?
--Also, do you know where the right stock ROM is? I still can't find one.-- Oops, sorry I thought the link you have was part of your signature. I got my ROM now, taking a long time to download though. Haha.
Is there another download location I can use? I messed up the slow download and now I have to wait a long time just to start over with the slow download.
TWRP install does not wipe the phone. If you want to use TWRP to backup/restore data you have to format data (which does wipe the phone), because TWRP does not support the samsung encryption yet (no timeframe for this).
You could still use TWRP to install stuff on /system.
I would go cfroot and flashfire.
quick question here: I've got 930w8 from Bell (Canadian version). on https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ I Cannot see CF-auto-root root for W8 version.
Is it safe to guess that auto-root for 930f (exynos) will do the trick?

You can use Cf Auto root for G930F, is working
Hello!
Just wondering if this CF Root will work to root my device still?
It's April 4, 2017, so this thread is really old.
I've gathered that I can use CF-Auto Root G930F and have that downloaded..
I got my phone from Virgin and live in Canada
It's a Samsung Galaxy S7
Model Number : SM-G930W8 (LU2BQB6)
Android Version : 7.0
I'm trying to spoof Pokemon GO haha, and apparently I need to move some apps to a system folder or something.
First thing first though, figure out how to root.
Quite frankly, I'd be willing to send someone a couple bucks via paypal for any assistance at all.
I can tell you that cf autoroot for international model works on android 6.0.1, not sure if will do the job on android 7

Hey I'm new to the world of rooting. Wanna do it to get past the network tethering thing. I pay for hotspot. But even planet didn't stop my 8gigs from being used up. So I've started searching for how to keep going with my hotspot.
I have no idea how to do anything past basics. So the more detailed and lamen the answers the easier.
I guess to root the Samsung j3 with nougat on it is first get past unlocking it.
Any helpful tip to get the unlock code for free?
Next is rooting it. A lot of techno babble baffled me all night long. So yeah that's what I'm trying to get help with.
Thanks for the time you guys may spend

I also have a Samsung J3 running Nougat that I would like to root. Mine is a Samsung J3 Unlocked (SM-327U) running Android 7.0 with May 1, 2017 patches. I've enabled the "OEM unlock" under Developer Options but I can't find a tutorial or TWRP image that supports this version. I want to install SuperSU but I'm stuck without TWRP support. I've already tried both OneClickRoot and Kingo, both of which state that the device is unsupported. I'm assuming that under the hood they are just scripting out the process but still using the same Odin/TWRP/etc process.
Any ideas? Is there a way to translate the changes necessary from another version of the J3 (e.g. SM-327YZ) to this firmware or are we stuck waiting for supported to be added to these (awesome) tools?
Thank you!
After unlock
After the phone is unlocked it should be easier to root it. I have a few more days in my service cycle till I reach the phone active 90 days to get the free unlock. After that I'll start trying to figure out how to flash it again

like you'll see I'm new here. My problem is, that i can't root my european Galaxy J3 (2017).
Model-No is SM-J330F/DS.
Is it just me or is every single root-method actually a fake for this device?

My J727T is carrier unlocked because i bought it outright at full retail. I dont know how an carrier unlocked device would change anything. Our bootloader is locked which has nothing to do with being carrier unlocked...
Sorry for Hijacking Thread...
Maybe I will buy SM-J330F in Germany as it is cheap... 200 Euro...
and seems no Fingerprint Sensor. :good:
For Germany DBT I found latest Firmware:
Code:
J330FXXU1[B]AQH2[/B]
Please.
Can I root SM-J330F
If yes, how?
Maybe somebody can please give Link to Instruction...
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards
if you want to bypass the 8gb hotspot limit you have to use foxfi and enable proxy in the app. if you set it correctly on your pc or gaming console it will not use data. no root is required anymore. i downloaded a full game on my ps4 using my hotspot and it hasn't used any data except my normal data and that doesn't matter since i have unlimited lte data.

I also have a Samsung J3 running Nougat that I would like to root. Mine is a Samsung J3 Unlocked (SM-327U) running Android 7.0 with May 1, 2017 patches. I've enabled the "OEM unlock" under Developer Options but I can't find a tutorial or TWRP image that supports this version. I want to install SuperSU but I'm stuck without TWRP support. I've already tried both OneClickRoot and Kingo, both of which state that the device is unsupported. I'm assuming that under the hood they are just scripting out the process but still using the same Odin/TWRP/etc process.
Any ideas? Is there a way to translate the changes necessary from another version of the J3 (e.g. SM-327YZ) to this firmware or are we stuck waiting for supported to be added to these (awesome) tools?
Thank you!

I successfully rooted my J327U witb Chainfire's CF Autoroot (the T-Mobile variant J327T) via Odin.
After Root I installed Flashfire ( also by xda-developer Chainfire). I'm still playing with the app's various features but so far it is pretty awesome definitely an app I'll be making a donation to this next paycheck) you'll be able to make a backup of your device with it. Hope this helps.

It wont work. The tmobile variant and even the metropcs variant is bootloader locked therefore you cannot flash anything. I have a metropcs variant and everyone else in another thread has also. Me and a few others have tried for months to get root and it failed miserably. I suggest buying the sm-j327u. You can get it on samsung.com
Hello guys!
I've spent my day trying to root my J330FN without any succes.. I've found an option in developer menu to allow OEM to be unlocked.
I only need root, not custom recovery...
Please do you have a suggestion?
Thanks

Rooting shouldn't be a problem for this device
Post some specifics on what you have tried and the reason for failure.
I should be able to get something up if you post the details above and your firmware details.

https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ this should help. the firmware for the device is here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/SM-J330FN/ make sure to choose your carrier along with the correct country. the cf autoroot for the j330f is on the firmware.mobi site it should work if you use odin. if it fails to flash or something goes wrong you should have your stock firmware.

Sorry it's taken so long to reply back to you, I live right in the middle of the northbay California winecountry wildfires that devistated Santa Rosa, CA. so it's been somewhat crazy here.
The CF Autoroot that I used on my J327U is for the T-Mobile (J327T). I'm not sure if they started locking down their bootloaders, so you'll have to perform due dilligence on that end. If you do decide to give it a go, make sure you enable USB debugging and OEM unlock under developer options.

I used the same app and used proxy but just saying if you use your ps4 (setup for the proxy on pdanet or foxfi) it will only work for soo long because depending on what your doing on the internet with your ps4 it may or may not count data. I have past 8gb on my hotspot and i mostly just updated games and my ps4 system software and watched videos on youtube.
J330FN (dont know if its DS variant)
I have tried the CF-AUTOROOT website and can't for the life of me, to get it to work.
I dont want to double post, so here is my reply in the firmware.mobi thread: ==>Click here <==
If i figure it out, or someone has succesfully helped me in rooting this monster of a phone, i will post back to help others.
I've looked for quite a while on anything that could help me root the phone, and have had no success with anything. I'm worrying at this point that the bootloader is just locked and have to ask, is there anything else I can do to root this phone? Willing to try pretty much anything, even at risk of bricking it.

I'm interested in this too but in all likelihood nobody with the knowledge is even working on it because this is a niche phone.
Locked bootloader..
Well i have this fone now...i bought it because it was a good deal so it seemed..Less than 100$ for fone and service activation plan...I have rooted just about every Samsung i have ever owned...So heres what i have come up with..There is no OEM option in Developer options...On any other samsung fone i always go right into developer options and disable OEM by turning it off...Then i either have used Kingroot apk or Kingoroot apk in the past and they have worked...sometimes u have to find the perfect version to match your android software specifically...Now i have always had huge success with Odin and flashing TWRP via Laptop or Computer via USB connection, but thats something each individual should personally take the time and educate theirselves on just in case... Sorry to say that the Samsung J3 Orbit with Total Wireless and Oreo 8.0 needs a serious look at...

Your phone is a 2018 model of the j3. When xda finally makes a J3 (2018) thread i will request for this thread to be moved. Any root methods shown in J3 (2017) are likely not to work anymore since samsung patched the methods used. The only way to root phones now is by buying the U variants of samsung's phones which are only available from samsung's website under unlocked phones. Unlocked phones from samsung have an unlocked bootloader by default.

U models are normally U.S. models which are locked tight. I run a s8 as my everyday driver which is rooted. The s9 s10 and most other us snapdragon and in this case exynos all are locked tight. And they cannot be rooted as of right now. The sampwn and other samfail do not work anymore. The U model you are referring to is the U.S. sim unlocked model not bootloader. With the S series F is the European bootloader unlocked model I don't know the European letter for J series.
Until some one finds a way to push a rooted system img on stock permissive combination kernel root will not come just like s9 and s10 us models
If these where us snapdragon we could push a rooted system combination file with safestrap just like we do on the newer bootloader on s8 using EDL and Qualcomm 9008
Just had an idea, another thread on this forum a guy says he made a modified version of Odin that can flash mix matched models. So just flash a model version of the j3 orbit that can be rooted or at least oem unlock capable to be able to flash twrp and then be able to root through twrp.
If flashing a j3 with a model number different than sm-367vl would brick it, just extract the .img partitions like boot.img or whatever the partition may be with ubuntu to restore one by one until you find which one makes the phone boot.
I don't know much about phones when it comes to this depth of modification. But I had a lg zone 3 that used this method to turn an unrootable model number version into a different model number that was rootable. Before I flashed the .img partitions of the stock software the screen had lines all over it, so using screen mirroring I was able to root the different model number software then download partition backup and restore app them restore the partitions that were for the original model number.
So basically it took both model numbers and combined some partitions of each to make it work properly.
In my head I can totally see this working. Just depends on how close to the same hardware each model number of the galaxy j3 has i guess.
I wish I would have noticed/seen this a bit sooner.. any progress or luck? I have the j337u ...
I know chimera tool is able to remove Knox kglock oemlock rmm mdm , of which mine shows kglock on, oemlock: on, frplock off. Trying to flash anything gives the error insufficient payment somethin. So there's got to be a way around it. ALSO I found interesting, the FCC id has J337t instead of U ...wonder why that is ...
(Anyone know where I can get stock j260AZ/AIO -notpaid- (cricket) firmware,I've literally checked every where )
We need someone to take that new 0day exploit rootPoC mod it however and release it
Found this [Have not tried it yet]
Came across an article on androidbiits. Not sure it's actually viable. Unfortunately I cant post the direct link until I have enough posts under my belt.
I'm willing to pitch in if someone can point me in the right direction.
Yhuda
How now????You are find How to root this phone????Please add Develop for find How to root Samsung J3 Orbit?!??
For my kglock on, oem lock on j337u, which also has some new mdm / rmm on it from consumer , I used chimera tool to set KGLock to Complete.
This also switched the oem lock to off and show the toggle in Dev ops....
1st flash of magical patched img worked. But after.connectinf.the Wi-Fi , knox enrollment and instantly a sec. Msg popped up and locked up the entire device. No usb connection or.anything.
factory reset
Same Issue,.then locks up
So for try 3, flash the patched boot, let boot.
AS SOON AS ITboots to android, hit the Airplane Mode toggle to activate it to stop Knox Enrollmnt
So er.gont get
was able to unlock the boatloader with comb file that was compatible, flashed stock track phone, updated to 9 pie...
used a gig pressed power button ???
9 pie trac phone j3 orbit
patched AP file with majisk, ran with Odin : says noway fail, I was able to reflash with stock firmware, so it doesn't work on mine...
any other luck
thanks
I would really like to know if anyone has succeeded either rooting or SIM unlocking or flashing with a different firmware on this model.
I was able to access the OEM unlock in my J3 Orbit (SM-S367VL) via factory binary after flashing combination firmware.
That is as far as Ive gotten. I am assuming you would want to run ADB download mode to flash anything as factory binary seems to have some security measures against full bootloader unlock built in
