Rooting questions - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hey there everyone,
I have had the S7 Edge for a long time now, and want to start rooting it and installing TWRP. Was always easy to do it on my previous phones, but this one just has me confused. I've looked through the forums and everything trying to find an answer before writing this, but no luck here.
So, does anyone have a guide or could direct me where or how I am supposed to root and install twrp?
Thank you so very much.

rooting is hacking!
so in new smartphone some companies tried to make it more difficult to approach it
you have to read carefully and do all steps in dev sections.
for example

How to root N900AUCUBMJ5

Hello everyone. Sorry, I'm new to rooting and the forums, but I tried searching around the threads, both here and the AT&T Note 3 threads, and I couldn't find anything about rooting AT&T version of the phone. If anyone could link me to a thread that will let me root this, please post here, or if it's unrootable, please let me know, I tried searching for it.

The only ways to root mj5 is kingo or vroot which currently isn't allowed on the forums due to the suspicion of them containing malware.
N900AUCUBMJ5 Root yet?

I am wondering that same thing. I have 4.3 now rooted and getting rid of root seems unthinkable. The Note 3 is so powerful when properly setup, however the only way to set it up is having root functionality. I hope something comes soon because the build I keep seeing for N900AUCUMJ5 is buggy from what I read thus far. I can not wait for a stable root.

1. Questions should go in Question and not in General.
2. For N900A actually the best place is Questions under

Rooting And prep for modding?

I've been an s5 user for almost a year now. And left everything as stock. But now I want to start to root and install custom recovery to start modding my phone. And was just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of links to what I need to do this. I am familiar with the modding processes as I did a lot of it with my galaxy S3. Just not for the S5. Thanks in advance.

look for cf autoroot and make sure its the right file for your phone. Next time if you ask for a link it would come in handy if you also mention which type of S5 you have
Sorry lol. Its the 900F

Full process for updating stock AT&T S7 Edge from 6.0.1 MM to Nougat?

Hello everyone!
I've been looking around on the forums lately and normally with every device I've had with AT&T, the bootloader has been locked and I can't do anything about it. But after looking through everything I'm assuming that something happened and now, by using T-Mobile's firmware, we can upgrade to Nougat?
I've been trying to find an official guide on how to go about doing this, as I'm not 100% confident in myself to wing it lol. I have experience with installing custom roms and recoveries and rooting in the past, but it has been awhile.
Would it be at all possible for someone to make a full list with step-by-step instructions (and links to all the downloads) on how to go about doing this? (As well as the link to the stock firmware in case something goes wrong)
I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
I'm currently on the stock firmware 6.0.1 Marshmallow (G935AUCS4APK1) with the November 1st security patch.

this is the exact opposite of a productive answer
in fact it's not even an answer
so uh....thanks? I guess I'll wait for some actual help.
Go to the guides news and discussion forum for the att s7 edge. It's got a few threads that will tell you exactly what to do.

I would like to know this as well.... I must be blind as I have not seen a single detailed tutorial or anything. I would like to update my At&t s7 edge (6.0.1 to Nougat). However, as I'm new to this I do not want to screw my phone up x).
If anyone would mind helping out that would be great as I've been looking and looking. Not seeing that there's any possible backup like TWRP's for the At&t s7 edge, I don't really want to risk anything.

Download, place on SD, boot to recovery and update from SD. You must be on att APK1 firmware. Also no apps disabled on phone with manager or any third party app.
Best bet wipe phone, set up like normal then flash nougat.
No one takes responsibility for anyone's phone. What you do to it is at your own risk. Good luck.

if you want to learn how to root go tutorial pages thanks
thanks for your interest in replying..however it seems that you just replied with rooting method in general and not knowing the real issue about this specific device..
None of this methods works for this device as of the moment.
I think you also do not have the same device as me so it's really hard to provide something that you're unsure of

Rooting Tab S6 Lite with Android 11 installed

Hi all.. The last device I rooted was an HTC EVO so it has been a while . I've been reading a lot and trying to catch up. I found both of these guides below to root the device. They both use a different approach. So I guess there's more than one way to do this, got it.. I guess I am just looking for some advice as to what is the most current/best way/safest to root the Tab S6 Lite. I have installed all updates provided by Samsung which has brought me to Android 11. I figured I should ask if the fact that I am already running android 11 could throw any monkey wrenches into the process of rooting it. It appears that Andoird 10 is expected within the guides. Can anyone recommend a guide for Android 11?
Thank you in advance.

Perhaps someone could let me know which of the 2 guides above is the one I should follow or perhaps another guide entirely since I have Android 11 loaded (or does this not matter?).
Thanks all

yes, magisk seems the safest way, specially now that we don't have an official twrp
the catch is.. finding the correct exact firmware to patch the boot.img

I hate to say it, but I don't think using the discontinued TWRP is really too big of a deal. All things considered, it doesn't have too many bugs, and you can work around things like no adb sideload.
I just have a question. Do you think TWRP will ever be revived for this tablet, even an unoffifcial one? I mean, there seems to be a demand. Is it permanently discontinued or...?
Thanks all, will do some more homework

I've got an S6 Lite on the way - did you come up with a clean sequence?

No, I got stage fright at this point and figured the process isn't mature enough for my scenario, or I just didn't get pointed in the right direction. I think that part that concerned me was KNOX... something that didn't exist the last time I rooted an android phone (HTC EVO, yeah that long ago).

Thanks for replying. My S6 Lite is due to arrive today. I'll be trying to root my P610 with latest A11 firmware (US 2DUK1), with TWRP, will capture whatever I do.
Awesome! Much appreciated, I suspect there's many out there waiting for an updated guide.
I think twrp is not a good solution,check twice before flashing.
Rooted mine which is lte version,picked up latest from samfirm and patched AP with magisk,added rest of the files in odin from stock.
After flashing done,you must flash vbmeta and boot from stock packed in tar,to avoid error.
