[Q] Safe Root?

Are there any safe roots available for the Rogers version? One that doesn't increase the boot flash count and mess up the knox thing?

Did you try the new safe root .bat file? It worked on my att phone, I'm sure your phone isn't much different.

As long as you don't mess with the update programs from your carrier you should be good. It is a good idea to use super user pro and do a root survival anytime you get an ota update. Going to sleep now, have fun.

Possible root?

This method is for the chinse version of our phones... but i figured they are snapdragon so there components are their same? I know tmobile and sprint have the same parts and everything so maybe this will work. Its a recovery file and i will be trying it as soon as possible.

Samsung Pay not available in Samsung S7 Edge

Ok, so I have a Galaxy S7 Edge, model G935F and unrooted, and I can't use Samsung Pay on it. It's nowhere in my apps and when I use Google Play on my browser it says it's not available in any of my devices. Does anyone know how can I use it ? Also, I have the latest firmware installed.

All depends on which region you are you using boss. S-Pay is in select countries at the moment, so depending on if you have that region it'll show up on your device. Spain/USA/China/Korea/Singapore/Australia.

Brazil. And yes, it's available here .

What CSC is your device on? By the way, there's a S Pay thread already going with tons of info.

It's on France CSC and it's XEF.(I bought it there). Maybe that's why I can't download SPay?

Yeah, you need to be running a ROM that supports it. Brazil's ROM does so just flash that one. I believe it's ZTO.

you will still have that simcard manager thing. like I said they both use the exact same firmware. only on custom roms sometimes the creator removes that manager thing because he assumes no one with a fd will use his rom. but official roms always have it.

only for being 100% sure

You can download from Samfirmware at full speed using Samfirm 0.3.6 with no login needed. Search for it on XDA.

Nope, it doesn't work. You just need to wait for your carrier to update to nougat for VoLTE etc.
