Hello, I've decided to post this after unsuccessfully finding any information about the g935u. Everything I find is about flashing the u firmware to other devices. I would like to start a gathering of people to share links, files, ideas about this phone and it's potential with "more stable rooting methods that don't use Eng and possible bootloader unlock" I haven't been active with xda since note 3 so please excuse my inability to search and post correctly. This phone would be so much better unlocked, maybe we could start a petition or a bounty? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm holding out hope for something better for our phones. Im still on PG9 with Aug 16th security patch 3.18.20-7856276-eng. I remember waiting over a year just for root for my sm-n900a when geohot came in and owned the phone within a few days of trying lol

I'm doing all kinds of searches, but nothing about rooting this model. There are some posts about this model in this thread though:

Thanks for your reply! I know also about echo rom and it's the only rom to my knowledge.

Yeah, that's the only rom so far and there won't be any until they're able to unlock the bootloader.

Is there a status thread about unlocking the bootloader? Donations thread perhaps?

None at this time but I'm hoping there'll be one soon. Meanwhile, you can subscribe to the Edge thread to keep up with the updates.

I recently received the ota 4.3 update for my at&t gs4, but I've been dying to try cyanogen mod on my phone or at least be able to remove a little bloatware. Could anyone point me to a tutorial somewhere to root this thing if it's possible yet? I do have a little experience with flashing roms and rooting with my old samsung replenish, but only with odin... thanks.
-EDIT Also is kingo really malware like many people on xda say? And does kingo work with the new MJ9 build for AT&T's S4?
If you have a little experience flashing Roms than you'll be experienced in the art of Google search. There are many threads about this already

Works the same for att even though its for verizon. Same root method but beware it could add malicious stuff to your phone and computer. Do a little researching first before you do anything. Good luck

And even when your rooted there is still no custom recovery for 4.3...so no rom flashes are possible

Thanks for the link to the tutorial. I've been looking stuff up about vroot and apparently it contains some sort of trojan... I also read a comment on YouTube where someone with the at&t MJ9 build had success with it but what are the risks other than bricking?
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.

Unfortunately the problem with the S7 is the root method.

No luck. I will continue to research for a foreign root if possible. I can confirm this doesnt work. Im not a dev i just do research
If my buddy got a refurbished and it's version 5.0.1 BOG5, it can't be rooted and unlocked? Or can it? searching with no luck. All the guides don't say what version it is.

Thanks,
I updated my guide HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...bilized-process-to-unlock-bootloader-t3375527 to say N910VVRU2BPA1 but I think, at this time, it will work with any version. HOWEVER, Future OTA updates may block this exploit.

Well after I bricked mine from a bad Rom install and no back up would work. I didn't want to mess with a phone that wasn't mine. I was to frustrated. Now I know it is possible and after getting sleep I'll probably do it this week.

Apparently the boatloader can not be unlocked as of 6/25/16 and there's no hope of that ever happening.
If there is a fully rootable version of the s7 or edge that's compatible with Sprint in the states please post it here.
My god. No and no. Please read through the forums . Please.

Yeah thanks. I have been... for hours. My search terms must be lacking or I just can't find the relevant info in a 75 page thread. Then the stuff I am finding is from March so I was looking for something more recent. Again thanks for confirming this. I really appreciate it.
