How to root the S7 EDGE

[rotondo2k]

ok and which files do i have to load onto the odin app?? or is the root935tzip same file as the Samsung_G935x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR?

So I'm unable to get past the activation screens. For some reason, even though it shows I have LTE, it keeps rebooting after the Hands Free Activation fails 5 times and after self-service completes. Kinda at a loss for how to proceed. Any one got some advice?

Guys, i noticed something odd, a package named com.tmobile.pr.adapt 3.4.4 requested root. I immediately denied it/disabled . Anyone have any info on what this is?

You should definitely freeze or remove that. If you ever have to call in to t-mobile for an issue, they can see that your device is rooted and deny you warranty repairs/swaps and etc.

So, just to confirm. You can flash back to stock and Samsung Pay is intact correct?

I am having the same issue. It runs through hands-free activation and I can see there is data, but it restarts and retries to activate every time. I think it might be a Sprint issue.

Thanks!! If you get stuck booting to tmobile white screen and factory reset in recovery does not fix the issue, you will need to flash PD8 back to stock and start over

I would like to know how everyone is getting xposed zip flashed to get the frame work to work without custom recovery, i tried flashfire and got stuck at white tmobile screen

for xposed zip, make sure you download the unofficial one supported by wanam. also make sure you download the arm64 bit version. once you have that, download xposed installer apk. install the apk file. then go into flashfire. flash the zip and just wait. it will take AT LEAST 5-10 minutes before you see the green screen (optimizing apps screen) do not reboot/turn off your phone

Knox isn't tripped either!
Thanks for this awesome guide!
Does anyone know what service to disable to get rid of that annoying security message?

Now I can finally install AdAway again!

Has anyone found a fix to the wifi passwords? they never save on reboot.

I have the white tmo screen... Can I get a link to download the firmware? Not from Sammobile, it's not letting me do it

For anyone that needs the complete firmware from Sammobile:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935T/

I also attached the root files necessary in the zip file here.
BUT... you also need to unrar it. Stinking forum set the zip limit to 20MB for zip files but it zips to about 23MB.
Rar limit is 8MB but in a rar it was reduced to about 18. So... rar'ed it up, hid it in a zip.

which CSC to flash ?

CSC_TMB or HOME_CSC_TMB ? i got 5 files in the firmware zip

AP, BL, CP, and 2 CSC
