rooted mk2 on saferoot and need help

Hey guys hopefully you can help. I recently rooted my s4 (att) and didn't like some of the features and tried unrooting it. (I have MK2). It took me a while before I realized from what I read I couldn't go back to earlier versions and update to 100% bone stock like out of the box. Problem I'm having is I think I got rid of root but I'm trying to fix the device status from custom back to official and I have no clue what to do I'm a little ocd and don't like the custom logo on bootup. I'd appreciate any help and have been stressed out and frustrated all day if its possible I'll do whatever it takes to fix it
thanks in advance

I've been trying to do this for quite some time, it doesn't look like there is any was to do it on MK2. Once you have the custom splash screen your stuck with it, short or rooting and installing WanamXposed, which does not good if your looking to unroot and return to full stock. The reason for this is Samsung has not released/leaked the Odin files for MK2, as far as I understand.

What features of root don't you like? You get to change anything about the phone and even get to delete system apps?

Will this work for galaxy core prime smG360t1?
I dont see my model anywher . I appreciate the response but i dont wanna brick my new phone. Can someone confirm this works for a galaxy core prime model sm-g360t1? Pleassseeee.

I have this phone also and haven't been able to gain foot. Have tried both Kingo-Root and Kingroot. Both are unsuccessful. Really would be nice if someone would patch kernel and create an odin flashable .tar.md5 file for this phone SM-G360T1. I can send any required files needed if someone can help.

The latest SRSRoot is not working for me. See screenshot for error.
Getting OffSets.. : error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported. (False)
Acts like exploit is working, reboots, but does not root or install superuser.

PIE check is a new security measure in Lollipop for binaries, so you should wait for further updates or some other rooting apps add your device

Sm-g360t1 Any Luck?
Any luck yet? I've been looking everywhere!?!?!?

srsroot
I ran this on my phone with app, and then tried the laptop version. After trying several times it finally ran and said that root was successful. It wasnt. Later I saw that sm-g360t1 was added to the list of supported phones and permenant root was achieved. I tried to reach them, and tell them but could not.srsroot does not work.

SRS no work for me either. Would LOOOOOVE a root for this device SM-G360T1 (Metro)

Someone help us all pleaseeeeee
We need a root for this device bad!!!! Someone needs to create one! Lol! Im dying for a root!! Please please help. Ive looked everywhere!!!!

samsung galaxy core prime sm-g360t1
I am so there, I will NEVER buy a fresh to the market phone again. I must have tried every one click app and windows root avaiable, several times. The bloatware alone is eating my memory and battery. Not to mention that without xposed;s little tweaks and fixes it looks so alien.
So...please have mercy?! And did I mention THANK YOU FOR ALL THE THINGS I HAVE LEARNED HERE? I was looking to get rid of the ads, found out about adfree andriod. It would only work on a rooted phone...which led to debloating and to cyanogen mod and. Well , you get the idea...a whole new world. KOOL!

Tab 4 SM-t337a Lollipop 5.1.1 Brick Problem?

Hello all - I have spent the last several days searching the web for a solution and I fear I may be stuck. From what I can gather, there is no stock firmware image of 5.1.1 that I can use on my t337a Tab to restore to factory. I installed KingoRoot from the play store and then tried to install Xposed Framework. This is when all hell broke loose. I am not familiar with android as I am an ios guy and admittedly did not spend enough time researching. I now must defer to the world and accept the flaming that will almost certainly ensue. Here is the info I have:
Lollipop 5.1.1 was the starting point.
SM-t337a tab 4 8"
Knox Warranty 0x0 (not sure if that matters)
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Reactivation Lock: Off
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable (csb)
RP AWREV: s1, t2, r1, a2, p1
Secure Download: Enable
UDC Start
Sorry if that means nothing but I want to be thorough if anyone is willing to help. I have tried the LP Boot Fix with no luck. I boot to the AT&T logo and after a few secs it locks up and sits there. I have attempted to downgrade to KK but the write failed (auth). I believe I need to flash a pit file? but before I jump back in, I thought I would consult some people more educated than I am. My understanding is there may be a way to take it to a retailer and have them reflash but that would be admitting defeat.
Thanks in advance for any help offered. If more info is needed, I will get it promptly.
This may be in the wrong place. Can a mod move it where it should be? Sorry

Man, I must be screwed! I really thought I would be able to get out of this one. Is there not an expert out there that can point me in the right direction?

I had the same exact problem basically.
Here is how I fixed it:
I found a stock rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/general/links-galaxy-tab-4-official-lollipop-5-t3102844
And I used this guide here: https://androidmtk.com/flash-samsung-stock-rom-using-odin.
This will require a PC, and a way to connect your device to it.

Awesome! You have a SM-T337A as well? My biggest issue is AT&T locking it down.

restore back to stock rom
I have a t337a also and restoring back to stock rom fixed mine. I really wish there were a way to root and install rom on this thing. I have now been searching for another tablet that I can root. Seems like such a waste. I like this device so it's really frustrating at thus point and not an easy conversation with the wife why I need amother tablet.

Did that link to the stock rom? I thought that was an ota that I could not use. Do you have a link to the stop rom you used?

He must have never updated to Lollipop. Once you do that, your screwed. There IS NO OFFICIAL FIRMWARE FOR THIS DEVICE RUNNING LOLLIPOP!!!! You can bring it to a Samsung Service Center in Best Buy but once they see the custom lock on your boot screen, they will know that you messed around with it, and they will not flash it. From what they told me, once your tablet goes into custom kernel status, their software will not be able to restore the firmware. Not sure if this last part is true, but what is true is that there is NO FIRMWARE ONLINE ANYWHERE FOR THIS DEVICE RUNNING LOLLIPOP. I've been screwed for several months now over this same issue. I went on E-bay and bought the unlocked T-mobile version of the Tab 4 which does have the software available. I will NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER AT&T DEVICE EVER!!!!! I will have AT&T service but I will use a T-mobile device.

This is what I see when I try that method.

That's a update file and you must be on stock unrooted Kit Kat to flash that. That's why you are getting the status 7 error. Like I said, you are screwed like everyone else. Your only hope is bringing it to best buy and u have better luck than I did.

Yeah, when you do a factory reset or flash firmware, it will take longer to boot. Its like a new device, booting for the first time.

I have tried multiple zips to try to get the U software on my phone but always ends up not booting. It will show galaxy S7 and then boot straight back into recovery.
Can someone please provide a link to the exact download files I need. Sorry to start a thread over this. I'm just having a hard time finding the correct files. Thanks in advanced.

Anyone?

It should be as (simple) as..
Rooting your phone -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039 (this won't trip KNOX)
Downloading the proper firmware from SamMobile -> https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930U/
Flash the firmware via odin (you can use the same method found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3335065)
Profit
I just did this recently to switch from SM-G930R4 to SM-G930V
Note, you will lose all data on the phone if you try this.

Go to Updato.com and get the newest SM-930U firmware from January and flash via Odin. The 930U firmware you flash must have a bootloader the as or newer than your current firmware or it will not boot. You do not have to root to update via Odin.

Bootloader is locked because it is a snapdragon variant. Only downside is can think is you would have to pay your bill in store or on a PC. Lte seems the same. Yes if nougat is on. You just load up the most recent U firmware and flash over nougat in odin.

it shoudl be simple...but it failed for me in one of my two phones. now it keeps going to recovery (downloading the original firmware to reflash it). the one that worked was a SMG930VZDA (made in vietnam) while the one that didn't is a SMG930VZKA (made in korea). I hadn't updated either one from the original firmware, but not sure what firmware they came with....
so if it works, it's great, but if it fails...

You can still use the My Verizon app to pay, if you want to. You do lose Verizon's native VVM app, but there are workarounds to use Voice or another third-party VVM app (I personally use YouMail).

Hey your right! One less hassle.

Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a new g930r4 (US Cellular) because my last samsung got stolen. Anyway, the first time I turned on the phone, I started having multiple issues (kept rebooting, unable to recognize headset, kept freezing). Then I decided to change it to the g930U firmware and I noticed a HUGE difference. I totally recommend this to anybody that has same problems I mentioned. Thanks to all the information from this post, I was able to successfully flash the firmware. Thank you all for the support! I hope this helps someone out there whos still got some doubts.

Hello, I have the SM-G930V Snapdragon variant in the US and I would really like to root it to get a custom ROM. If you wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate a reply (if you have one) to this thread I made on the topic: https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/help/questions-bootloader-rooting-custom-t3721109

What rom can I flash?

Note: I already tires flashing roms from this forum, none of them worked.
I have a sm g930v (Verizon snapdragon) and I've tried flashing some different roms including superman rom and others, but when I do, I get stuck in a bootloop. So I assume that those roms just don't click with my phone. Could anyone give me the name of a rom that could work? If you need it, some info on my phone can be found at imgur . com/gallery/VK2hH (couldn't attach via xda app, sorry)
Also, is a custom kernel something worth looking into? Because if it could improve my phones performance, that would be neat too.
Looking forward to any help I can get, thanks!?

Thanks, but i tried using that one again and yet again got in a bootloop :/
now i gotta reflash to stock and try another.
Any other suggestions for my snapdragon model?

You didn't follow corrections completely with stanglitre. It will work on all snapdragon s7's
Try the Ufirmware hybrid. I'm on that and get 40 hours battery life
Make sure you are turning on debugging blah blah blah

Did you get root on stock? Did Flashfire load and get root access? What step were you when you get bootloop?

Here's what I did.
I started with stock G930VVRU4BQH4 from updato
I rooted using PERMANENT ROOT method https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039 EXCEPT and VERY IMPORTANT in "PERMANENT ROOT" I DONT USE "engineer-rooted boot image" < --Thats for MM, that will bootloop me.
INSTEAD for Nougat, I use "ENG-ROOT" file here --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/how-to/how-rooted-s7-nougatand-fixed-lag-t3576393
I Continue along the GUIDE: ROOT to install SU.
I Install Fashfire from Playstore.
I Go to stang5litre website for current ROM and instructions to flash.

I followed the instructions correctly, I rooted using that nougat eng boot and i used flashfire to wipe what the thread said, and i made sure the order was wipe, then rom flash, and when i hit the lightning bolt the phone restarted and i had a bunch of the white text, (what i assume is files being written to the system) and another reboot, the word flashfire is across the top of my screen for a good 3 mins, then a reboot and my s7 has the logo with the custom lock for custom firmware, and then it vibrates for like .2 seconds then reboots, then repeats to do that until i flash stock back.
I made sure to follow the steps correctly, but maybe I am doing something wrong...

Could the problem be that I flashed the rom from my internal SD? I downloaded it on my PC, since its like a gig, then uploaded it to google drive to download to my phone faster, and when i went to flash the rom i selected it from my internal storage/download. Should I move it to my external SD card? I think i read somewhere that i should have the firmware on my sd since the flashfire wipe clears the internal memory.

Alright I just flashed the rom again and it said it was installing and blah blah in flashfire and i thought it was going to work this time, but Im back in a bootloop. **** this rom, I'm so irritated. I followed the steps EXACTLY and put the .zip on my ext SD and im still getting bent.
Guess I have to try something else...

Sounds like you doing it right. last thing I can think to check... Did you get the "N" ROM from http://stang5litre-edition-roms.xobor.com/
or
The one posted for MM https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...t/stang5litre-edition-5-0-s7e-rom-s7-t3453441 see page 177 for "N Rom Is Live" link.
I'm out of ideas if all that checks out.
BTW I flash the ROM from Internal Storage too, I don't think thats the problem.

Not to sound mean, but if your looking for roms you should probably get a different phone. The few roms available to you are crippled by terrible battery life due to the engineer kernel. Stang's rom is good, but nothing can fix the battery. U firmware might be your best bet. Not trolling, just my opinion.
