Hi everyone,
i have been searching for 2 weeks how to root this phone, but no luck yet. I am saying no luck for a proper way to do it , because you can do it with the avant method, or by using the CF method which uses the SM-G386T firmware, and for reading lots of forums, i know it works, but the problem is if i ever want to update later, i would not be able to do so. I already have the firmware for my phone, G386WVLU1ANJ1, running android 4.4.2 KITKAT, and i have extracted the recovery.img from the firmware file. I am searching how to unlock the bootloader so i can apply whatever rooting method i want. Since i am new to this, i need some information. If i ever want to use the CF-Auto-Root method using the SM-G368T model, can i go back to stock phone whenever needed by flashing recovery image from the SM-G386W ?. If not, is there any other method i can use, preferably one that doesn't trip my KNOX flag to 0x01. Until now i have tried 2 methods, Towelroot and Z4root, which didn't work at all. The main reason i want to root is i want to get rid of the bloatware installed by default on my phone and gain control of my phone without any restrictions, and customizing it.
Please need help.
Thank you very much
P.S: can anyone recommend some reading about rooting android phones?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I also own one of these phones and would like to root the phone to get rid of bloat ware and make the phone run smoother. I would appreciate if you could give a quick run down on how you managed your root. Greatly appreciated.

Canadian carrier use Kingo one click root
Hi
i always used Kingo one click root it has super su that make it easy for bloat removal in a click of a button for all my Samsungs Galaxy core lte
galaxy s4
So far I have tried Kingoroot through USB, at 99% it displayed a warning message saying it would flash recovery through Odin and that it could potentially brick my device, so I cancelled the process.
Is there any *safe* way of rooting this specific device? I could not find any custom ROMs for it (but I would rather like rooting and staying with the stock ROM, anyways)
I have also tried other auto rooting apps that failed to root my device because the exploits included don't support my model.
Thanks
I have been trying for about a month to root and atleast boot this SM-G920V to a rom I dont even care if it's rooted but anytime i try to follow a youtube video exactly it still ends up failing i have used adb to boot to bootloader then turned off phone booted into download mode to bypass the secure download but it still says SECURE CHECK FAIL : (RECOVERY) I don't quite understand why Verizon just has to be so difficult but this may be a dumb question is there anyway to actually switch the model of this phone without just changing that file that displays it to thus switch it to a root compatible version or will changing that actually make the phone compatible I don't know if anyone has any tips as to booting this verizon galaxy s6 nougat 7 to a custom rom or even rooting though I was told that the verizon models are incompatible for unlocking bootloader but I know theres ways of booting to roms without unlocking bootloader though you need root is there anyone that doesnt need root or unlocking bootloader I have also tryed the old ping pong method and that still failed. please let me know if you have any knowledge of any of this thank you in advance
No way for custom rom.
Flash the latest official, install Package Disabler app and get rid of the bloatware.
Then enjoy the phone.
So I've been scouring the threads on this phone to see if someone has finally found a way to root the device, but from what I can tell no one has been successful. It's a pretty obscure device so not much effort is put into it, but it would be great if someone had actually found a way. Flashing the cmf auto root file on ODIN always fails. I had heard of a method where there was a way to root earlier firmware versions, but stocking flash firmware to try and downgrade never works on ODIN either.
The best I've managed to do is unlock the sim card. I had heard of some exploit with using MAGISK on a locked bootloader, but it seemed to have failed as well. Is there any possible method to finally gain root access, or am I still up ****'s creek and stuck with a phone that's locked down like fort knox?
Any help would be tremendously appreciated.

so if anything I've been trying to root this s7 for some time now and have only achieved (stated by a root checker) a "broken shell" or "incomplete binary's" also that incomplete root by a 1 click auto root application still lingers on my phone. so I'm kind of looking for insight on ideas any ideas really, do I first need to remove this improper root before using the now apparently updated now capable one click root applications that are still failing but now initiating. (would that fix them and how do I do that?). I'm also open to flashing with Odin given correct Apk link to the correct Apk file for my phone, or any other method you think I could do... my phone and computer are ready to go usb debugging set up on both and oem unlocked.
My phone is Model: SM-G930U
Kernal: 3.18.71-14970140
Build number: R16NW.G930UUESACSI1
I believe a v8 bootlocker on phone along with the Qualcomm SnapDragon 820 processor.
ill be around for the next while and probably drop in periodically till my phone is rooted, thank you very much and please reply: Dylan
