Galaxy J7 Sky Pro - Any Firmware Options Besides Stock Marshmallow? - General Questions and Answers

My second handset, currently set up with Tracfone (as my Mom shares it) and I'd love to give it a little tech-boost if possible? Root would be fine, just haven't tracked down anything solid for this specific model on this forum and a couple others. Any directions would be appreciated.

Can the J7 V (verizon) be unlocked/rooted?

The verizon J7 V comes with nougat -- does the existing root guide apply? I can't find references to the J7 V... anywhere.
Thanks!

I too have this version of the J7 V. I am curious to know as well or if you tried and succeeded?
Sorry -- seems the j7v isn't on anyone's radar. I ended up buying an app to tether.

Youre not making sense. Why should I google it if I'm at XDA?

By putting xda in the google search you limit your results to stuff in XDA - generally a good idea.
But you are already at the J7 forum, and now you know your model number.
You will find some useful guide info here, though I don't know if yours is a 700F. There will be similarities. Guides are always a good place to start!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/how-to-root-twrp-install-xposed-t3328580
I believe the next step for you is to flash TWRP because TWRP then allows you to backup your stock, and to flash ROMs.
maybe you need to start here, if the guide above didn't help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/j700t-development/recovery-galaxy-j7-sm-j700t-t1-t3560342
There are warnings in there about having stock on hand. Make sure you do.
Unfortunately I can not help you further because it talks about flashing with Odin.
But you are in the correct forum for asking questions, so go for it!
Good luck!
Asking questions and being nice to people will get you about anywhere! That's how I approach any new phone.

I know I saw somewhere someone made one for the metro version, but I'm not sure where. Just search around the threads. Not sure if it works, but someone else was in your position and someone made a backup and linked a download page for anyone to use, but as far as an "official" stock zip, one doesn't exist.

How did you get VoLTE to work when no one else has? It will connect to LTE but when you make a phone call it will switch out of LTE which means VoLTE is not working.
TBH I'm not completely sure. I was messing around with IMS registration and it changed to registered. When it did VoLTE started working. Reason I don't Kno what I did is because my baby nephew technically did it. He grabbed (7 months old) my phone and put it in his mouth. I grabbed back. Looked at screen and it said IMS registration complete.

That is weird. I'm going to pass on what you said and seen if someone with some more knowledge than me can figure it out
