We need more than root to use TWRP. The bootloader has to be unlocked. It's not very likely that you'll see any Samsung US versions unlocked, they've been locked down pretty damn tight for years.
I'm looking pretty hard at the Pixel XL.. I miss flashing roms every other night lol.

Oh but it most certainly does.
IF the OP managed to crack the bootloader THEN we can progress on the TESTING phase of a TWRP recovery. If he didn't unlock (or crack) the bootloader then thus it is locked, right? Which only answers the question.
One could easy argue that he didn't realize that the bootloader was locked. Okay. So let's do that. We'll assume as such. So let's wonder together now. Why would a device considered the best (and most popular) Android phone on the market not have a custom recovery? Hmm. That doesn't make sense! So instead of posting the inquiry in the appropriate How To Root section... another thread is opened about it. Undoubtedly, if the OP had read about it (s)he would have found that the bootloader is locked. Right? Because what other explaination could there be for the most popular Android phone on the market?
It really just means that every question has an answer but not every answer can *only* be found by starting yet another thread.
But... maybe... just maybe... he DOES have an unlocked bootloader. Wouldn't that be neat? Wouldn't we like to know how? The absence of such is the very reason we don't have TWRP available. Again... a little reading would lead one to discover that very minor detail. Of which the OP clearly didn't do enough. So... the moral of my point is...

A simple search would have answered his question before he posted his/her question.. yes we all started out asking questions and we all have been told the same thing. Search first before asking questions. Its as simple as that. That is what google is for and the search options in these forums..

I don't get how else should do it. It prevents a load of other threads being created. If we tend to be soft on people who don't use a function that was created for a reason, we would be having threads over threads of asking for something that has been answered NUMEROUS times.

How was I being harsh by inquiring to procedure in which he had used to unlock his bootloader?
Once we are all able to unlock ours then we can develop a fully functional recovery.
I know how you say it.... hey noob topic starter man (just kidding ) that question has been asked a few times already, do a search if you need more information. The same questions over and over tend to clog these threads up. But what clogs them even more, is the multiple flaming responses with no answers or guidance. . Or better yet, you can say... I have a link it's right here vvv.Heresyour answer.com/post710
Well this is TWRP built for Snapdragon S7s but won't boot because of locked bootloader.

You're welcome to try but I'm pretty sure you need to flash the kernel too. Which you can't do.
Indeed. Just wondering if it has been tried yet...that kind of thing.
No you can not flash CM13 on the S7 with a locked bootloader.

As the dev, ask samsung to unlock your bootloader. Than sure you can install it
Lololol ask Samsung to unlock the bootloader
Don't worry... I will try it and let you know.... Like everything else Downloading now...need a break from the Engineer/BL hack I am doing
Actually... This might go hand in hand with what I am alredy working on.. I will hold on the blind flash right now because just thinking of the simple surface mechanisms, it won't work. BUT IF... I can get done what I am doing,then it might just work... And hell if I can get it to where we can flash roms with Flashfire and saying f-it to a custom recovery which would be possible without encryption and verity and all of that crap.. then that is a score in my book.. Just dev off of the CHN stuffs and flash through FF
We look forward to your offerings.

So I have not been able to obtain this firmware but figured I'd share to see what you ladies/gents could figure out.
http://www.romup.com/search?version=G950USQU1AQCF
Also there is a thread in general discussion and questions section regarding an All_OYN_G950USQU1AQC8 firmware.
idk, seems pretty fishy to me, every I link I see is to pay to download sites for this file. You would think that there would be somewhere online where its free. Probably a bogus download.
lots of scams out there

Can you link it please! Where did you find the free one?
I found the free one for the 955 and 950 i was able to find the unlock bootloader option through it not sure if it will work. Was more interested in the boot.img
Not saying it isn't a scam, but romup is actually a fairly reputable site. People posting leaked firmware all the time straight from the factory. A few other Asian sites like this one have some juicy stuff, not just for Exynos/other unlocked loader models. So don't discourage it, translate it and see what they have to say and maybe even test it. I personally don't want to take the risk with my phone but someone kinda has to. Anyways, done with my little rant.
Would this Engboot be good for snapdragon variants? I remember the S7 Edge had a locked bootloader, but you could still atleast root it

Im working on this right now. Give me a little bit had a kid last year so im trying my best to get this done right now while i have time.
Wait so do you have a copy of that firmware? I can't obtain that one bc I have no way of paying in yuan.
Also is there a way to flash a firmware where root is natively in the firmware? I always thought we had to unlock the bootloader and root and then flash recovery. Unless it was the recovery that always tripped knox.
Hi Br3w3r,
I just wanted to say thanks and ask you a little about how you coerce these engineering firmwares to allow root mode. Do you reverse engineer it? Just curious.
Found a newer version of ODIN and enabled the grayed out buttons. Maybe it could help?
ODIN 3.12.7 with UMS and USERDATA already enabled: https://mega.nz/#F!8WxRwDwa!seZLQVSoWTrz2CJkbdxTkQ
Interesting... so if I am reading this right. Someone is trying to work on snapdragon now?
I have purchased a copy of the firmware posted by the OP, although it was bought off of a different website. This is a factory binary, that has SElinux as permissive, OEM unlock says it unlocks bootloader, etc

Dude, if you can't do a little research, then i strongly suggest you avoid attempting to modify your phone. Sorry to sound rude, im having a bit of a face palm moment from your question.
You're not sounding rude. A lot of people on this forum wants to be spoon-fed, and that's not going to help them in the long run. They need a smack on the head and get taught how to search.
If you can find a way of unlocking the bootloader you could give it a try. Probably brick you phone yes.

I think he was trying to point out that it should go without saying that you shouldn't even think about flashing other firmware than the one designed for your actual model. It never ends well.
I think he just wants to root his phone, and thinks that somehow this process involves getting the single sim firmware.
To be able to root you first need to unlock the bootloader. Currently only allowed by LG on the unbranded US and EU versions. NOT possible on any other version, unless someone finds an unofficial way around it in the future.
I haven't tried it, but I doubt you will brick it, most likely it will just reject it, but I agree it's not a good idea to try it without knowing.
All those guys talking about spoon feeding people... if you know the answer to the question just answer it, if you don't know the answer shut up.
I reached this thread doing research and rather than finding information I find your rant.
I need some help if possible with this SM-580. I saw a post that had info on bypassing the frp lock. But the post dint go into enough details, and it was copied from a post a few months back which I tried to locate and could not.
And I wasn't sure if it was the right info for my device.
Here all info on my Tablet.
It's a 10" Black 16GB Samsung SM-T580UD
Android 7.0
And it has been reset asking for google login info.
Any help is much appreciated.
.....Thanks for any help

The reason no one has responded is that the questioned has been asked and answered so many times that anyone should be able to find the answer on their own. There is even a step by step answer. And there is a video posted by Beut. But you have to be VERY VERY careful to follow it exactly. Miss one step and it won't work.

You must not have read them carefully. The ONLY way to remove the FRP lock is to use Odin to revert to 6 with the ROM ending in PL4. You won't find a way while still running 7.
edit: BTW, once you remove the FRP lock, the tablet will update itself, OTA, back to the latest 7 from Samsung. So, don't worry about using 6 to get rid of the lock.

What difference does it make what firmware the tablet is running now? In order to remove the FRP the tablet has to be set back to the PL4 firmware and that can be done no matter what it currently has.
edit: The ability to add a fake wifi entry, highlighting it and choosing "advanced" is the key. That feature is ONLY available in a few Android 6 ROMS. The one ending in PL4 being one of them.

Then why not just post what version to flash and how to use it to remove FRP? Rather than, "what version are you running?", flash version "xyzzz" and do "such and such". Personally, I'd like that info if, and only if, it is easier than the 6 method. And doesn't cost any money. If you are selling something, then forget it.
edit; I take that back. If the OP can't figure out how to use the 6 method, and you can sell them something using 7, then more power to you.
