Im looking for this too, but i guess we will have no root for J7.

I'll be happy to be wrong. [emoji23]

Thx for this tip, i subscribed this thread.

Read all posts and its only for J7 J700, 2015 and lollipop version.
None for J7 SM610 with android 6.0 2017(or 16).

Ill keep looking for root on SM610.
This knox really make me afraid from try to root.

I understand completely. In most cases knox can be disabled or at least reset, but the level of development on lower end devices is often limited. What carrier your through also tends to make a difference.
