Samsung Galaxy J3 SM-S320VL rooting assistance - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers

I have the Straight Talk Samsung Galaxy J3 SM-S320VL and I am looking to root the phone but have been unable to find a solution, I have tried SMSroot, King root and a couple of others but no luck as of yet.

I have the same phone. And have had pretty much the same luck. Kingroot tried to root it a few times but always failed. Anyone else out there manage to get this phone rooted yet?

Need help
I bought this phone through Walmart like everyone in this forem and I looked forever for this root cant find it but they have rooted this same phone but not through Walmart but from virgin mobile. so It does not have the same model number but I think it can be done the same way. so if anyone can figure this out reply to me. ifeatsamsung.com/root-samsung-galaxy-j3-2016/

Same Issue
I found several sets of instructions for rooting similar models of the Samsung Galaxy Sky J3, but none that have the specific model of SM-S320VL, which is what mine shows when you put it into download mode. I can get Odin to recognize it, but the only version of TWRP I can find is for the SM-J320YZ. From what I understand, most of the Galaxy Sky J3 models are similar and the model numbers vary by the carrier they were produced for. All that being said, I don't want to flash a bad recovery and brick my phone, so any info as far as that goes would be appreciated.
*EDIT*: To clarify, I realize this post was about rooting the SM-S320VL, but I wanted to install a custom recovery and make a backup of the phone before I got started on that process which is why I was talking about installing TWRP.

Odin fails trying to flash any of the versions of twrp available for the other versions of this phone. It doesn't hurt the phone. I've tried it several times with different builds I've found for the j3 2016 phones.

Is anybody familiar with what this is?

Has to do with unlocking the boot loader

I have the same problem with my sm-s320vl odin fails (auth) 005

"OneClickRoot states it has a method for our version but, $36.00 is a hefty fee for only root access..."
(Correction) - I asked the tech with O.C.R. and they informed me there was no method as of yet.

anyone figure this out yet? need to get this baby unlocked before christmas! sm-s320vl...

any luck?

I don't think this phone is actually the same as the other phones labeled J3 2016. Even though this is marketed on sites like walmart and amazon as a Samsung Galaxy Sky J3 or Samsung Galaxy J3 Sky. Which might be a part of the reason the odin downloads always fail. So no luck still on getting this rooted in any way.

I put a request to samsung for your kernel source so if at least one person steps up as a tester as I don't own nor have access to this device I'll help yall gain root once the source is posted.
Requirements as tester-
Windows pc
Odin
I don't have to hold your hand using odin
And supply your stock boot.img

How do I grab the stock boot.img? Everything I've seen uses DD and requires already having root

Hmm you think. Because if this particular phone sold millions and there were lots more people who wanted to root it there would be an root option for certain.

I think I bricked my Galaxy S5 Active G870A Lollipop 5.1.1
So I tried to downgrade my phone to Kit Kat and thought I had followed the instructions. I installed Odin and ran it the way I was instructed and it passed. I tried to flash the updates needed via external SD card and the updates seemed to be going well. Yet just before its done I see this red error "sideload install/*something* error (Status 7). My friend and have tried presumably everything but it won't flash the stock or any other ROM. If I'm in boot mode and try to use Odin it will fail with Fail Auth Success 0/Failed 1. Not sure what I can do. Any help would be great. Again Odin does not seem to work. Also, if I can't fix it would AT&T replace it with the insurance I have.
you CAN NOT downgrade, take it to at&t dealer and pray

want to root samsung galaxy j3(2016) SM-J320F indian version

Hi, i own a samsung galaxy j3 (2016) SM-J320F Indian version with android lolipop 5.1.1 version and baseband J320FDDU0APBB
i want to root my device....any one can help me ???
i have tried so many methods available on goolge....nothing worked for me.....any one can help me ??
Only method available at the moment is temp root via King Root. And it must be reactivated upon each device reboot.

How do you use that?
I tried King root and it said it cannot root the phone. I have Feb 21 build of the 5.1.1 rom.
I think, Galaxy J3 serie is not capable for root. No cfautoroot database is not available for this device. But root may be possible on Galaxy J5 and J7.

And it cost me almost 3$ ....so, If there's any solution please let me know because i cant use my phone without root. and these bloatwares are really irritating. so anyone?
Rooted SM-J327P J3(2016) Boost Mobile 6.0.1 Marshmallow
What it do folks. First of all, THANK YOU and I apologize. I dabble a bit more with my devices now and Ive had a lot more success then previous years and that would be due to the hard work you "techies" have dedicated and shared. So thank you for all the grueling and frustrating progress put in. I feel like I'm there with guys. As for my apology, I'm lost on singling out individuals that should recieve their just do. My bad. This is my first ever reply sort of like finally getting my feet on the steps in a refreshing icy summertime lake that holds now bounds. No brakes cause my foot is stuck on the gas.
I've rooted a few devices with KingRoot, KingoRoot PC edition was a success, and now the flag-ware Odin3(any version) takes the crown along with TWRP got my J327P 2016 from BST voided due to the cracks root has invaded with passion.
I thrive from any and all feedback and refuse to accept thats not possible or it cannot be done phrase; all I hear is "challenge accepted!" Please let me know if I'm not in the correct area for ranting but again thank you for all the knowledge and by all means charge on the great work!:good:

I'm having the same problem anybody find any useful tools? I found a YouTube video from someone from XDA developers with a rooted straighttalk s5 but it was not the SM-S903VL and I tried exactly what he said and downloaded the required files tried to flash through ODIN and still nothing. It fails everytime. I have rooted many galaxy phones but on the t mobile network and am wondering if there is some kind of code modification that needs to be done like that of t mobile's. Please need help!

I've tried just about everyway of rooting this S5 from straighttalk but have had no luck, no other S5 root works. I believe this is the newest model and nobody has a working root yet. I really hope soon someone figures one out for the SM-S903VL on 6.0.1 Marshmallow. Come on developers!

Umm, I'm fairly new to this, have down this a few times but in order to downgrade, don't you have to be ROOTed? I will have to look into doing this I guess. My problem is I just bought the phone brand new and it is my only phone. I have had much luck with other Galaxy S5s and Notes on other networks and am pretty familiar with ODIN so this was the first thing I tried. Could you explain a bit more the root.bat method? If it has to do with ADB, that doesn't seem to give me authorization when I connect it and use the adb devices command. It gives the serial number and says unauthorized. I have USB debugging enabled in the phone but still no luck with that either.
The first post in that thread I linked has directions. Read it carefully a few times. I don't know if it will work or not. The first step is to flash the pb1 firmware in that first post with the Odin version in that same post. If that works the rest probably will to. Read the section called 'installing pb1'

Try it. It's for the g900v. The s903vl has the same fcc id as a verizion s5 with a busted digitizer I have,so I think it is a 900v just with straight talks firmware on it.

Root for SM-t377a (ATT Galaxy Tab-E)

Is there a way to root the galaxy tab E that comes from AT&T? I've found a TWRP image for the SM-T377P version but nothing for SM-T377A which is what I have. I was thinking they might be cross compatible but if they were, I'm sure TWRP would have listed it on their site.
The option to OEM unlock is in the dev settings list so I'm thinking I can flash the recovery but I'm not sure on that.

Worst tablet ever. Att can't even get their software updates right. I can't use this as a phone because the stupid number sync software keep giving an error and no one at att knows how to fix it. I've tried different dialers and freezing them. Nothing works. Now I have com.android.phone is not responding and their is no firmware download anywhere to fix it. Now I have to factory reset the whole damn tablet lol. I'm going to sell the and get a Sprint unlocked version. What a shame. This tablet had potential too

You can Google "replace Kingroot with supersu". There is a 4 step method for replacing the temp Kingroot with chainfires SuperSu. Even if bootloader is locked. Just found one of these in Facebook marketplace for $50.

Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk
I think this tablet sucks, too. AT&T hoodwinked me into getting this thing, and now I'm stuck with it for 2 years. It's slow and choppy--I'd rather have an iPad. My "Next" contract is just about up, and I can't wait to dump their ass for another carrier.
Agree. Hoodwink is exactly what they did. This tablet is SLOW and the bloatware is chewing up RAM. I'm about to dump it for something else. Was hoping to be able to root it so I could kill off some of the bloat, but no joy....

I knew I should have checked here first... but at least I can return it... I figured a device of its age would for sure have custom roms and root. Stupid at&t! Guess I'm back on the search for a LTE tablet that works on at&t for under $300
Hi, recently I bought a cheap AT&T Tab E. It has only 4GB internal storage instead of 16, weird? The tab is almost useless because it has almost no space for new files/apps. Anyone knows what's wrong with the tab? Thanks

Totally new to rooting in general, and researching isn't going well as I don't have any context/experience yet...and the vocabulary is new. I have (literally just bought a few days ago) this version of the Tab E...and I'm trying to root it so I can use it more effectively as a head unit in my 03 F150. I'm finding out I bought the wrong unit to do this reasonably easily.
Would you mind posting a quick walkthrough of how this works? Install KingRoot and then replace it with Supersu to get the tablet permarooted?
Thanks!

Not a big fan of youtube instructional videos, first one available, not sure if its good........
https://www.google.com/search?q=rep...0j7&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#kpvalbx=1
This is a guide with a one-click .bat file to supposedly do this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/a310/general/how-to-remove-replace-kingroot-kinguser-t3308989
Directions for manual replacement:
https://missingtricks.net/replace-kingroot-kinguser-with-supersu-superuser-android-guide/
Remember, this is for you replacing "TEMP ROOT", not when a device is permanently rooted! This means being in the position of Kingroot barely getting temporary root that will be lost when device is rebooted!!! It involves using Flashify (by Chainfire as well) and authorizing it's root ability to flash.
As in every OP on XDA, do so at "YOUR OWN RISK".........

My ODIN wont work, and I don't know if my phone can be rooted.

Hello! I have lately been using a Samsung galaxy S5 on Verizon, and it has served me well. But, I recently had just gotten a new Samsung Galaxy S7 flat (Sm-G9300V). I have actually used the edge before, but wasn't a fan of it, so I used the S5. I had heard that this phone is now able to be rooted on the Verizon version of the phones. So, I have followed many guides, and have searched my build number for root, and a bunch of other things. I will post some screenshots of my phones information if you can help. Another issue I've been having is when I try to flash the ENGBOOT from multiple different XDA forums, my ODIN keeps failing, even though I've turned on USB debugging and OEM unlock in the developer settings. If anyone could tell me if i'm doing something wrong, and maybe point me in the right direction if you can, this would be much appreciated. If you are willing to help, I would be more than happy to give more information. (Also, flashing a stock firmware wont even work, and It is the Verizon firmware) The pictures are an attachment, sorry I don't know how to put pictures on a thread.:good:
Save your time. There currently is no root for your software version. Your software is bootloader "B" (G930VVRSBCTC1) of which there is no ENG root file as of yet.
Oh. Thank you, though!
