Hi there, so I recently made the switch over from Apple to Android (yay ), and I found out about rooting. However, when looking for a root for the SM-G928G (which is my model number), I was unable to find one. So I need some help, how do I root this specific model of the Galaxy S6 Edge+?
Thanks!
ADDITIONAL INFO:
Model Number: SM-G928G
Android Version: 5.1.1
If you need any more information, just let me know (I'm not sure what information is important and which information is not)
I made a tutorial in spanish for that model G928G here:

Follow that steps are you will get rooted without issues.

Same problem here. I tried whole different ways including reflashing ROM but didn't work. Then I found Region unlock app by chainfire. It worked like a charm. Also you need to root your mobile first. Rooting method is somewhere in xda. Search it . Hope it helps.

I live in Argentina and I see that the 2 Core Prime G360F for my kids purchased 3 days ago in parís, have the regional SIM block. The Fnac seler dont warned about this.
Now I see that on the lower side of the boxes has a warning on regional SIM lock. The solution of Samsung is to activate a 5 minute call with a European SIM. For me, it is a lote complicated from my country
I'm seeing that an application that unlocks it for Note 3 rooted. Somebody knows if esta apk with The G360F work?

What are you talking about "unlock"?
Bootloader unlock or carrier sim card unlock?
The bootloader cannot be unlocked on this device.
To carrier unlock it so you can use any sim card, not just Sprint you will have to contact Sprint customer service who should unlock it for free provided the phone is paid off if financed https://www.sprint.com/en/support/solutions/device/faqs-about-unlocking-your-sprint-device.html
Or you can find one of the millions of paid services to do it for you

yes, but that's the fact, on the pcb it says g950u, and the chipset is detected on PC qualcom, but the cellphone information says g950f and when dial * # 1234 # shows the results like this
but if I use the dial code * # 12580 * 369 # it will address the results like this
then when I use the 'phone info' application the results are like this
So its a950 u. With 950f stuff on it. Probably unlocked and setup to run on a international carrier. The bootloader version of the important one. And what i would go off of
and this test results from 'miracle thunder' addressed the results as shown below
like this
I blinked using the G950u and G950u1 all failed, luckily my cellphone didn't bootloop,

I dont really know. Some one had it customized to a non us carrier. So other than downloading the latest firmware you can find on sam mobile and try but it may mess with what ever carrier its setup to use
