Followed all steps to root phone.
But odin displays Fail (Auth) error. Not sure how to root my phone
Hello. I did root my phone few days ago using Odin, I can help you.
What do you need:
SuperSU ZIP File (For your Android version, to check in Settings -> About device) and copy it to phone memory
TWRP Recovery MD5 File (for Odin) (for your phone model, check in Settings -> About device)
Now steps:
1. Enable OEM Unlock in Developer Options (If not unlocked, Settings -> About device -> Tap "Build Number" 7 times)
2. Open Odin and select AP (maybe PDA)
3. Find your TWRP File and select it
4. Turn off your phone, go to Download Mode (Volume Down, Home and Power buttons), click Volume Up (once)
5. Connect your device to your PC (In Download Mode you need to see Odin Mode!)
6. If in Odin you have seen "Added!" click Start
7. If Odin will fail, try again (I needed to)
8. If you have already flashed TWRP, go to it (Volume Up, Home and Power buttons)
9. Go to Wipe option and swipe to do default wipe.
10. Now click Install, select your SuperSU file.
11. Swipe to do it (Zip authentication disabled!!!!)
12. After it's done, reboot your phone again to your OS.
13. Enjoy your new root!
Optional Step: download Root Checker from Google Play and check your root.
I hope I did help you.

THIS one works for me
First and most important thing for installing/upgrading to Stock MM is clean install (even for Odin flash). That`s why we need a WIPED device. And if you fellow this step, then hopefully you`ll never get any issues (bootloop, abnormal battery drain etc). and this is for rooted devices with custom recovery (TWRP).
I always follow these setps.
DO it at your own risk.
1. Go to TWRP Recovery mode (by pressing volume up + power + home button)
2. Enter in Wipe menu
3. Advance wipe
4. Tick Cashe,Data, System, Internal Storage (except external storage/ Micro SD Card) and swipe to wipe.
5. Go to Reboot menu.
6. Power off the device. (Ignore " No OS Installed " message).
7. Open back cover and pull out Sim cards and Memory card(if any).
8. Download Odin ( I use v.3.11.1).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451
9. Install essential drivers for your device in your PC/Laptop..
10. Download Stock MM (latest) Firmware for your Device from sammobile.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-J700F/
11. Extract (.tar.md5) it in Odin folder.
12. Go to Download Mode (volume down + power + home button and then volume up)
13. Open odin
14. Connect your device with Original Usb cable.
15. Odin will say "Added" once you connected your device. If not, then check all the drivers and Usb cable.
16. In Odin, make sure "Auto Reboot " and "F. Reset Time" options are Ticked.
17. And make sure "Re Partition" option is not ticked Or marked (checke twice). Don`t touch any other options in Odin.
18. Click on "AP" tab and select the firmware you extracted earlier for your device (.tar).
19. check again everything.
20. If everything is OK. then click on "Start" and sit back.
Odin will display "PASS", when it completed.
And your device will reboot.
After setting your device, power off your device and insert Sim cards (must) and Memory card (optional).
Switch on your device.
Here you can check for the latest software update for your device again. If any update is available, it`ll ask for download and install the latest OS. you should install this update (if available) with wifi/data connection. I`ve installed the latest "J700FXXU2BPG3_J700FODD2BPF9_INS.zip" and after setting the device for the first time, it asked for the OS update again. I downloaded and installed the update and it was "BPH2" with "August Security Patch".. And now I`ve "BPH2" in my device. And I think this the latest update from samsung for J700F.
AND AFTER THAT YOU SHOULD DO FACTORY RESET.
Now you can setup your device according to your wish. And enjoy new stock MM.
These are the steps , I always follow when installing /upgrading any samsung device and really it always provides a very stable and smooth performance.
I just share my procedures.Hope it helps.

You can install Nougat easily on your Galaxy s7 edge!!
1)Download Odin 3.12.3 .zip file and run/open Odin3 v3.12.3.exe file from the extracted files on your PC.
2)Download the Nougat firmware for your device from the downloads section above, and unzip the .zip file to get the files starting with AP, CSC, Home_CSC, BL and CP in the beginning of their name.
3)Enable OEM unlock on your phone:
Go to Settings » About phone » and tap Build number seven times to enable Developer options.
4)Go back to main Settings page, scroll to bottom and select Developer options from there.
Under Developer options, look for Enable OEM unlock checkbox/toggle and enable it.
5) Boot your device into Download mode:
Switch off your device.
Press and hold “Home + Power + Volume down” buttons for a few seconds until you see a warning screen.
Press Volume Up on the warning screen to accept it and boot into Download mode.
6) Once your device is in download mode, connect it to the PC with a USB cable. The Odin window on PC should detect the device and show an “Added!!” message.
7) Now we’ll select each firmware file (from files we got in Step 2 above) into the appropriate box in Odin.
Click on CSC tab and select the firmware file starting with HOME_CSC in its name.
└ Note: Do NOT select the regular CSC file that starts with CSC in its name, as that would replace your CSC and thus would result factory data reset of the device.
Click on CP tab and select file starting with CP in its name.
Click on BL tab and select the file starting with BL in its name.
Click on AP tab and select the file starting with AP in its name.
└ Note: DON’T play with any other options on Odin the screen. You’re only required to connect your device and select the firmware files as instructed above.
Click the Start button on Odin and wait for it to finish the process. Once it has finished successfully, you’ll see a pass message on the Odin screen.
8) Your device will automatically reboot when Odin is done flashing. You can then disconnect your device.
└ It might take some time for the first boot after flashing a stock firmware.
That’s it. Your Galaxy S7/Galaxy S7 Edge is now rocking Android Nougat update.
9) enjoy
