Any working root method for SM-G950W?? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Exactly what the title says. The other threads I've found were a 2-3 months old figured why not ask again?? SO is there any working root method for this variant?? I tried cf auto root and it doesn't work at all just fails. Any input would be appreciated thanks guys

King root doesn't work either. Gets to about 30% than hangs there forever

Any updates on this?

Downgraded from rooted 2.2 to 2.1 and cannot root anymore.

I've read over the forums quite a few times and am stumped. For some reason i cannot get rooted again after SBF flashing to 2.1. I've used the one click root program and while it says the root was successful, i go into adfree, titanium backup, and wifi tether and all tell me that i am not rooted. Super permissions doesn't seem to work either.
I've flashed my phone six times and have had the same results, so i was wondering if anyone else had this problem or could help me out. I just want to root and get back to 2.2 again, but i don't see why I'm having such difficulties when I've had success before in the past. I'm trying to give all the information i can, but there isn't really much to it. I followed all the steps in the HOW TO downgrade 2.2 to 2.1 link in this very forum.
If anyone can help me or tell me whats going on, I'd be in their debt forever.

Six times? Did you try the 7th????
http://alldroid.org/Default.aspx?tabid=40&g=posts&m=5164#5164
But anyways...did you try to root in manually instead of doing it with one click?
Ok the seventh time was in fact the charm. I just upgraded to 2.2 without root and then SBF flashed to 2.1 again and now when i root, it actually takes and adfree tells me im rooted and super permissions kicks in. I could just not figure out what was going on because it didn't make any sense. It still doesn't, but hey problem solved so i'm not gonna speculate. Anyways thanks for the time.

Checking Perm Root with z4

Hey guys just wondering how do I check and see if the Perm root worked? I followed the thread on how to and where it says to check perm root I am not sure how? Any help would be great, I am unable to post on the dev forum still! Like I said I am using z4mod to root and was able to get through step 6 I do not want to flash the recovery until I am sure the perm rooting worked!
Thanks guys
So I was playing around and was able to flash a clockwork rec mod update and boot into recovery, I am guessing that it has worked!
Well, it must have worked, I was able to flash a rom no problem! I went with cm7!
you have superuser access app.....there is a root checker in the market also.....
Awesome, I noticed sometime last night I had the su app and did not know there was a root checker! Thanks, will be help full when rooting other phones!
no problem!
how i knew was because after i have rooted other ppls phones, I always tell them not to mess with the su app....
i dont no much but exp with winmo has helped me hugely!
rootchecker, i thinks it called found outta boredom....lol

[Q] How to root T337A

hi all. I have searched and tried the only 2 different roots that said that worked.
I used towel root and didn't work. I also tried srsroot and it said it worked but nothing.
So, any way I can do this?

If your kernel is past June of last year, you can't root the AT&T tab 4. I'm not responsible if something happens to your device, but you could try downloading the only ODIN file you'll find on sammobile.com and load up that. I'm not saying it will work, not even sure you can downgrade to that version. You may brick your tab. if it works, then you can root with towelroot and make sure to freeze any and all updater apps right away. Good luck

I've done it. I used the newest version of Kingroot from the Google Playstore (ver 4.8 at the time of this writing) If I recall correctly I *think* Kingroot may have shown an issue getting root access. However, after rebooting the device the rooting process did work. I was able to verify it by using root checker (basic version). After I had root I replaced Kingroot with SuperSU and once again verified using root checker. Still rooted... Be careful to take one step at a time. If you can reply with specifics and what order you did them in I might be able to help.
