Thanks in advance.

This device is very new, so you should wait for people to start work on it. If you have any knowledge, start by making a custom recovery or similar

it's happening finally! embrace yourselves
I am just trying to compile twrp for the J530f. Any help is appreciated aß groß is the first Recovery I am trying to build. Gathering Information about the boardconfig.md or where to get a proper binary. I am usimg the one from samsung openSource - http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=J530f - atm. However the version number is not exactly the same as my device's.
My Current config contains true for the values I already have looked up and informatio where I have found them.
I now have verified all uncommented flags.
Commented Flags still not verified.
Added TWRP Flags from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943625

Created a recovery.fstab. Should be correct . Could not find the usb block.
i'm going to trying this
https://www.halabtech.com/root-j530f-7-0/
edit: odin binary error. someone can correct it?
edit2: ROOT OK!!! just rename the file from md5 to tar. but there's a little problem: is necessary to wipe data before made it. after the root, softwares update don't work.

Was The root successful? Works the root with no Problems?
The root works. The correct procedure is: wipe data from recovery. Don't boot the Phone and go directly into download mode. Root the phone

Well, if you installed this ROM then you should be able to root by this method and then you can install custom recovery.
that method for me as like asking me to make new window 11
the Q, why if i try to install any SD update it say signature failed?

The root method does work. I'm not sure about the recovery part though.
**edit**
I went to this website and downloaded TWRP version 2.8.5.0 and it works. As for the functionality, i'm not sure. I tried doing the backup and it was working but then the screen shut off but the back and home buttons were still lit up and the screen would not turn back on with the power button so i just pulled the battery. Also of note, there are two strips of bright blue on either side of the main UI. There was an error that said the UI could not load properly, but like i said, it was starting to backup. I'm more of a CWM kind of person so i am going to try the T-Mobile version of that and see what happens. http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/trltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-trltetmo.img.tar
Good luck.
**edit2**
I turned off the screen timeout feature and the backup went fine. I'm going to test to see if I can restore from that backup tonight.

Whoa wait. First you need to follow the root method by flashing the sc-01g recovery. Boot the phone and install/update busy box and SuperSU. Then you can reflash to twrp or cwm.

*Edited. I uploaded which factory firmware worked for me on a t-mobile s7 as of 10/30/2016 to dropbox if anyone needs it.
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bjz0du5b6kyt3g7/AADETkXwGhpRMSQoI2bmrupBa?dl=0
These are what worked for me. Included is a link to the factory firmware if you screw something up.
Turn on developer options/Usb debugging. After installing your Samsung USB drivers http://stockroms.net/file/Drivers/Samsung/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe , plug it in. Click allow on your phone.
Put it in download mode. Open odin, click AP and choose the .tar file. Click start.
After reboot unlock the phone and open fastboot folder. Double click root.
After reboot, transfer busybox.apk or download busybox. When setting up busybox, make sure to install it to /system/xbin. Not /su/xbin.
Something goes wrong, use the same odin to flash the firmware you download from the included link. I would have included the files but their 2.1 gb.
Again, this is just what worked for me.
What follows rooting is your choice.

After you root it it automatically sets your governor as performance. It needs to be made interactive before you do anything.
This is what I did to fix the lag.

If you want you can follow this steps for a completely free lag phone.
1. After flashing the eng kernel, go to PlayStore and Download Kernel Adiutor and set Gov to Interactive on both the Big and Little.
2. Download Flashfire and flash Echoed Rom.
I'm using this on my T-Mobile Vatiant.

it was because the phone updated to the pki or whatever released on 11/5/2016. I used all your files in odin at once to downgrade, then was able to proceed perfectly. thanks again
Thanks for the files. It's a shame though this device has been secured as much as it has with little development. I've always had phones with full root, customization, and control. With the root methods so far, I mean it works but there's just too many cons and I've tried everything to get performance back post root. Went back to stock in the mean time.

Yes, It worked for me.
So, I found the OTA update packages for the FRD-L14 to B320 (and B317)
I really wanted to update... but I'm not sure how.
I'm rooted, with TWRP and SuperSU installed, and it all works ok.
I didn't want to do any hard methods, scared of bricking it. Updating the OTA over SD card isn't working (can't even find the setting)
So what to do?
They are only OTA updates, not Full, so I can't just use dload method to load them up.
I would prefer to keep root, but if I have to reflash to stock, and then re-root, I can do that.
Any other methods I can use? Can anyone with a bit more knowledge help me out?
And of course, more than happy to share the OTA files, one is approximately 3gb (B317) and the other is about 300mb (B320)
Thanks
Unroot phone and flash stock recovery
Will that work? I tried doing that but the updater didn't find the update in the SD card. It told me there were no updates available.

you need to make sure the zip file you get are the right one.
since your have TWRP, just flash the update.zip and the update_hw_usa.zip Link without reboot in between.

3. flash update.zip (if some errs shows , just miss them.)
Also don't wipe data & cache

that is honor8's hardware code and support library of Android 7.x. You can understand it as hardware firmware for honor 8. and update.zip is system and software part. In order to make software part works, you need correct hardware firmware.

Currently, there is no way to re root and install twrp. there is a post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/twrp-nougat-edition-t3504140
It shows how to install twrp on 7.0 and root. Not work for me, so i give up this part, just enjoy the original Emui 5

Hmm, it seems to have worked for me, but I seem to be running into some issues. It might have failed for me too.
I HAVE to replace some of these default apps. Some of them are truly awful, not to mention I have to uninstall some.

I updated through the charles app. I am not rooted with custom recovery. Here is a link to the thread that details how I did it, with the original firmware link for the version I'm on.

thanks, i will try it.
Which TWRP you used for the FRD-L14
I have a possible root solution for the T818V/T818A aka the Verizon and ATT version of the T819 if any one is interested in giving it a go?
.
I'll try it out... I have the Verizon variation

Here we go. This is for T818VVRU1AQB1 firmware, but probably works on any revision 1 firmware.
Instructions
1. Enable OEM UNLOCK
In Settings>About>Software info tap the build number 7 times to enable developer options. Once you've enabled developer options, developer options will appear in settings just above the About device option. Open developer options, the 4th or 5th option should be “OEM Unlock”. Turn on.
2. Download the eng boot image.
This is a special boot image normally used by engineers, it allows selinux to be booted in permissive mode with relaxed root restrictions.
Do not replace this image with the stock image after rooting your device or you will possibly soft brick your device.

3. Install boot image:
Download Odin v3.11.1
Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the SM-T818V_eng_boot.tar to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Reboot
Check in Settings>About>Software, your device should be in Selinux permissive mode.
4. Install and run Kingroot:
Make sure you have an internet connection.
You may need to run Kingroot several times to gain successful root.
5. Install and run SuperSU me to remove Kingroot and convert to SuperSU (not required) :

6. Wifi fix:
modify the line below in /system/build.prop:
ro.securestorage.support=true to false
Good luck I hope it works for you. Let me know your outcome.

The boot image flashed OK with odin? Which splash screen?
This could mean you need to wipe the data partition first for it boot.
I should be able to get the stock firmware for you sometime tomorrow.

Flashed fine. It's the screen that says Android very big and had the tab model, right before it goes into the boot animation.
I'll wipe data partition and report back.
Please don't feel responsible for it, I'm about trying anything for rooting... I'm sure we'll get fixed

Sure, we'll get it fixed no worries.
Anyway it seems like you need the accompanying botloader if its getting stuck on the bootloader animation.

If it still doesn't boot I'll give you a link to the entire engineering firmware via PM. Then se how you get on with that and gaining root.

Are you saying that the full firmware didn't flash either? At what point does it fail?
Anyway don't worry I'll upload the stock AQA3 firmware later.
EDIT: I think this is all you'll need to get booting again. Flash via AP in ODIN.
If not I'll give you the link to the entire firmware.
