Today i checked by (OneClickRoot) to see if they rooted the new S6+ or Not, and found that my device can be Rooted, but i am afraid to try, did anyone try this
I wouldn't be surprised if it works, but it will most likely trip knox, which will disable your ability to use Samsung pay... I just switched to the + from the regular S6 edge and I went months without rooting so that I can try out Samsung pay. And since it's coming out this Friday, I'm definitely going to hold off until then

nice ! good info
From what I read online the ATT version will not boot at all after root and it is the "A" version of that model number. It doesn't come up as supported yet. I feel confident someone will figure this out though.
What is coming out this Friday?

If it's only Samsung Pay that you lose who cares. I'd do that in a heartbeat but if it won't boot up, well...
i will just wait then until Friday and Root after its been tested and everything is fine

Good to hear but I thought Adguard was only a browser extension. How does it work within Android? Or is it a simple apk download from somewhere?

Yes I've been using it and it seems as effective as using Ad Away.
Only thing I'm not a fan of is that pesky key icon in the upper right in the notification bar. Any way of getting rid of it for good? I tried the usual of going in app properties and unchecking notifications and the app itself has this setting in its own menu (which gets rid of one of the two icons) but the key remains.
It's like after nuking the mothership in ID4, when the scope clears up, the target remains! :laugh:

I am not one to root my phone so and tinker with warranty for the first year. However, having these two buttons as seen on the S5 will be a huge annoyance but one I may have to live with. Does anyone know if the Rogers S5 or Note 4 have this right out of the box, no settings to disable/hide it? TIA!

Does rooting your phone not void your warranty where you are?
I can root a device before I even get it thanks to this forum, losing warranty to root is what keeps me paranoid.

Yikes! December is quite a while away. I hope that info is outdated... I was hoping John Legere would announce it during Uncarrier X. If it doesn't come out this month, I'll probably just buy it from BB with my bonus since it still gets VoLTE and Wifi calling. Band 12 isn't out where I'm at yet, but the Priv does support it, so the only thing I miss out on is the Jump insurance.

I didn't hear that but that makes more sense than exclusive since you can buy it from B&B's website. But still the timed exclusive has to be worth it and I couldn't see AT&T paying for anything less than a month.

In light of the high possiblity that the S7 Edge will not get root I have been considering returning the phone and wating for the LG G5. So my question Is am I the only one considering returning it over the possiblity of no root?
Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk
No, keeping mine.
I will be keeping mine. I have Exynos but not being able to root would not lead to me retuning the phone as it's not such a big deal to me.
However I understand your reasoning and believe a lot of people will also be returning due to this.
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
I'm enjoying it, I don't really need to root since Package Disabler is all I need anyways. Besides if I wanted root, I'd just wait for the next Nexus device.
It's disturbing that we might not get to root... but all is not lost. We don't know what Sprint will do yet.
I've returned mine because it was faulty, and thanks to Samsungs ****ty return policy I had to buy another s7e from a local store, waiting on my refund for the faulty one
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
It would be nice but it's not a deal breaker for me. Although, I haven't ever had a device I didn't end up hacking in some way so it would be a first.

Previous Samsung bootloaders were not locked that's why. The S6 was rooted by an exploit which was later patched.

That will most likely be the case. The only way it can be rooted is if someone can find an exploit once the source is released.

Ye the exynos can be rooted as the bootloader is not locked. It's only the snapdragon that cannot be rooted and the source is yet to be released.

Yea bootloader is locked, even if root is accomplished it will be very limited as far as custom roms and those sort of things, as well as being careful with automatic updates and stuff. I have till Saturday to make my return and barring some new development i more than likely will return mines. A stock device is too basic for me.

My feelings exactly. I love many things about this device but no root means no fun... yes there are a few work arounds but not enough. I hate stupid volume warning message an how I cannot take local backups with twrp an titanium backup. Also. xposed installer.
Back to Note 4 for me. I've been carrying them both around for the past week an surprisingly switching back to the Note 4 isn't that much of a difference justifying worth losing my access to root.
Are people really that negative that the S7 Edge snapdragon varient won't get root?

Verizon and AT&T phones have been nearly identical in recent years. Both are usually more locked down than T-Mobile (for example). Starting with the S7 and S7edge and now with the Note 7, almost all firmware can be universally flashed. Verizon is the best platform as they are already Sim-unlocked.
Interesting! You said your running the ATT firmware didn't you? So your rom is basically the att version?

It will. The system file is what you keep from the Sprint rom.. The nice thing is that the rom is a pre-carrier release so basically before Sprint got their hands on it to add their own bloatware.
You essentially perform the Sprint root guide but right before rooting via adb, you flash the CP, BL, and CSC from the Verizon firmware.
