Hi everyone!
My wife has a J3 and it keeps telling her there is not enough room to update apps. She only has a couple installed besides the Samsung bloatware, and used an sd-card for pretty much anything else.
I've rooted my own Huawei mate 9, but I would love to find a simpler solution to keep her phone from possibly not receiving any updates or risk me bricking it...
Is there a simpler solution to delete her bloatware or move those apps to the sd-card without root?
(And if not, what is the most easy noobproof rootguide? )
Thanks!

I have root for my ATT s7 Edge. the lag is killing me as is the battery life even after all of the kernel auditor, fixes and bloatware removal. The lag is just un-f%%king-bearable.
Here's my question: Should I rollback to rooted MM or should I stay on rooted Nougat? My reasons are Ad Away, the fixes and the ability to kick Samsung crapware in the ass.
Thoughts?
Honestly id stay stock until there is a stable root and more development imo. Stock nougat is really stable atm. If you're going for root, which you are, MM Rooted U firmware is the best way to go!
You can kill everything but software updates with Package Disabler Pro. Yes, I know, that is one of the first things I disable on a rooted device, but at least you can kill the rest of the bloatware. I am running it now, and it is (amazingly) a Knox certified admin package which has permission to do what it does, so it runs fine on a stock device. (of course, the fact that it is Knox certified is why it can no longer disable the software updates - thank the Note 7 for that...)
Unfortunately, the only system-wide ad-blocking now requires a VPN, and I have yet to find a good solution that doesn't involve a monthly fee or high cost (or both). I have just started deleting apps that annoy the snot out of me with ads or, for vital apps, just sucking it up and buying the ad-free version where possible.
Hello
I've been using rooted official Rom
1-I find it pleasing enough but I want to upgrade ... should I do it? what new features am I going to get besides the looks
2-the only reason I rooted my device is to be able to use multi windows on all apps... does nougat have that feature or will I have to re root my device? it's has been really hard for me to get this this before.
also I've been crazy with my previous phones ( Note 3 and Note 1 and Nokia N8) with Roms... but i didn't try them on S7 because I want the security of the samsung online features and the ability to find my phone and if it's wiped everything is wiped
thank you
up
Hello all.
Recently got the Nokia 6. Liking it so far.
The gboard is very slow loading the emoticons thoug.
Anyhow, I digress.
I am wondering if there is a way I can root my phone?
I am running Android 7.1.1TA-1021
I want to switch the back and resent apps touching area.
We all want root, it's just not possible without an infinity box yet... We also don't have a running version of TWRP...
Alright. Thanks. So, to root for now we need patience..?
Hi, I've successfully rooted my phone!
Is there an easy, quick or thorough way to debloat our phones running Nougat?
psouza4 had this thread with directions on how to do that, but I think it was for 6.0.1 because it's not working on my phone
My phone is the Samsung SM-G930V with the baseband version G930VVRU4BQA4 and build number NRD90M.G930VVRU4BQA4 if that helps anyone.
Anything anyone can do to point me in the right direction or any tips you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

I was thinking something similar to this or this but for 7.0, not 6.0.1.
I'm not clever enough to really know what can and can't be removed safely. I usually just spend weeks removing stuff to try and strip down to an absolutely minimum stock phone and end up just breaking the operating system and having to start over.
However, in the two links hyperlinked above, two guys both immensely smarter than me were able to strip the phones of all the bloatware and then some while remaining on stock roms and having a very functional phone.
I was hoping to find something like that.
For now I'm just downgrading to a rom that came out before Sep 15, 2016 and then following the steps in this thread to get a functional rooted phone that is tweaked to run okay, then I'm using the steps in this thread to strip the phone down to almost nothing but still keeping it functional.
I would rather have total control of the applications and software on my phone and use a dated operating (6.0.1) system versus using the most up to date operating system (7.0) and not having as much control or understanding of what's on my phone.
I would love to upgrade to 7.0 though if anyone knows an extensive and reliable way to extremely debloat the Verizon Samsung S7 SM-G930V with a locked bootloader?
I've lurked and googled every variation of any combination of words to try and find the right place to learn how to do this but fell back on the two threads I hyperlinked above, twice. I can't find anything that works for me for 7.0
If anyone wants to emulate what I did to get a similar result, I used the firmware version G930UUEU4API3 for the device Samsung Galaxy S7, model SM-G930U for my SM-G930V (apparently the G930U version doesn't come with Verizon bloat? just standard bloat?) because that version was released 9/09/16 and the thread for the extreme debloat was last updated 9/15/16, probably to account for that release. After that nothing has been updated.

Update 7.0 root it and try this rom. You need to create a account to access the form.

Thanks. I was using the 6.0.1 rom for awhile but ended up doing other things.
I have been using this 7.0 one now since you posted on the 4th and it's nice.
If you find anything else do share, thanks so much for your help!

Is it possible to upgrade this into Oreo? if so, is it a case of root it, then odin flash it? Are there any helpful guides / tips?
Thanks

Suggest you use Odin to flash stock Nougat first and give that a go. It's pretty good and I've felt no reason to root just to get Oreo.

Thanks for the reply.
Is that the Samsung wrapped Nougat or the raw version..... I am hoping to get away from some of the Samsung bloat..
In your current Lollipop, the mixture of Samsung Bloat and a bad version of Android, (5.0.2 was a car crash.) makes it an awful experience.
In Android 6 & 7, Samsung have really reduced the bloat and the underlying OS, is significantly better. If you install stock and spend half an hour cleaning the bloat, its a really consistent experience on the S2 and I've not experienced any slowdown. :victory:
When thinking about root and Oreo, just remember this hardware is getting old now and wasn't exactly fast 3 years ago. Battery life on the 8" version isn't great due to its small size. As Samsung have been good at providing security updates, I really can't see enough gains in the whole rooting experience. :angel:
Many thanks for your help........ I will take the simple route via odin. I will see how I get along
