Since the bootloader is locked, you cannot install TWRP.
There is an engineering bootloader that allows root access, though.
However, performance is much worse on the engineering bootloader.

Sprint S7 in Oreo or Nougat April update will be never be able to root again or unlock the bootloader because is binary 6 and there is no root for that,
Sell you device and find an Exynos variant or another Snapdragon with binary 4. Period.

I am trying to help a friend unlock and root his Vzw G2. I am very familiar with unlocking, rooting and adb commands and have messed with many devices.
As mentioned, he is running the Vzw G2 and here is a screen shot of his settings info.

From my research so far, I have found that the G2 boot loader has yet to be officially unlocked. So as of now, we need to use the work around using loki tool which is here:
http:www.androidpolice.com/2013/09/18/da...d-bootloader-on-att-and-verizon-lg-g2-models/
After using the work around, I will then root and flash custom recovery using:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45692679#post45692679
1. Are these the proper tools to be used for this version and model?
2. Is the boot loader workaround Loki necessary in order to root and flash custom recovery.
3. If /when the boot loader becomes unloackable, will the loki patch be able to be reverted into fully unlocking?Thanks for all the tips and advice ahead of time!!

I'm starting this thread to continue collecting all necessary information about Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Verizon version mobile phone. This thread is aimed as continuation of currently closed sibling thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/guide-to-note-4-wip-t2939288.
Ask any questions below and I'll add most common questions to this post.
Information relevance: 02/27/2016
Let's start from main information:
Verizon version of Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (N910V) is carrier version from Verizon, based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 CPU and has wide cellular support: GSM, CDMA, LTE.
It is carrier unlocked from the factory - you can use SIM card of any carrier
It has two versions: Retails Edition (RetEd) and Developer Edition (DevEd)
It's likely that you have RetEd. You can check it in the Download Mode (Volume Down + Home + Power)

}
RetEd has locked bootloader and write protection on system partition. That means, that you CAN NOT flash custom ROM, kernel, modifications. Also, there is NO permanent root solution.
Temporary unstable root is available for RetEd both Android Kit Kat and Lollipop via KingRoot 4.8.1. It disappears after reboot.
You can flash any custom firmware to DevEd, including permanent root, but be careful with OTA updates - they may update you to locked bootloader and you'll get Retail Edition.
There is Knox Trip flag. It's 0x0 by default, but once you tried to flash custom firmware - it will set to 0x1. Your warranty is void in this case, and It's impossible to revert that flag back. Also Knox software will stop to work on that cell phone.
Yes, most cool nuts from in this forum are only for DevEd, and not available for RetEd.
Any comments and suggestions are welcomed.
Can someone with Android 5.1.1 and Retail Edition try this APK and place report here: https://github.com/nowsecure/android-vts. I wonder how many vulnerabilities they fix comparing with 4.4 and 5.0.1? I would appreciate it.
I want to get a custom rom but im pretty new to bootloader unlocking....i know my phone has it locked because Kingo root was removed on reboot BTW my phone is a note 3 from canada AKA sm-w900w8 (sorry if i posted in the wrong place this is my first time here at XDA)
w900w8 ? n900w8 ?
If it's really locked, don't you think that by now there is tons of info on the web ? The phone is not from yesterday.
Why don't you Read the N900w8 ??? Thread in general section or search XDA .
Bootloader locked sorry I know nothing about that on your model are you sure you have the right model .Boot to download mode to check model .

The Canadian Note 3 sm-n900w8 does not have a locked bootloader. For a custom ROM, flash TWRP and flash the ROM from TWRP.
The phone doesn't support fastboot commands.
Thanks! once you told me that it really helped thanks audit13!

Thanks for the heads-up. No wonder when I tried to install ADB & Fastboot, the installation couldn't be completed. Now I can root with CFAR and install TWRP on my Canadian Note 3 SM-N900W8 with confidence. :good:
Can I flash the Tmobile rom for the SM-T377A (AT&T) over the top with Odin and have it work out ok? Im assuming they are the same exact hardware. Thanks
smt377t
i have the tmobile version of this tablet.
do u know if i can root my device?
can u recoomend a good rom?
Unfortunately it will not work that way when they write the programs for these devices they write them as stated sm-T377t is for t-mobile, and sm-T377A is specifically for at&t
SM-T377A Samsung AT&T Marshmallow or Nouget Stock ROM
Hey everyone,
I successfully rooted my LG V-20 and I really enjoy how nicely my phone works now. Smoort, responsive and everything is editable (within reason of course).. So, I have set my sights on my tablet.
Samsung E Tab
(Model: SM-T377A)
AT&T varient
Android 6.01 (Marshmallow)
- I have tried every possible combination of flashing the tablet with Odin. (all 3.x versions)
- This includes trying the COMBO package, the 4 part flash with or without using the PIT file and I also tried just the 'boot.img' falsh (with PIT and without PIT)
- If I include the PIT file then it very dependably fails via the PIT error.
- I have also done the Factory Reset and made sure I used the proper drivers, matched the Build number with the flash file that I am trying to use. (ATT_T337AU.....)
- I have also Unlocked the Bootloader via the Developer settings within Android andUSB debugging (per usual)
- Below is what I have been getting plus/minus a a couple of variable details

The only thing I haven't tried is using either Marshmallow or Nougat. I thought that Lollipop or Kit-kat would work (or it was worth trying)
With all of that said, does someone have either the silver bullet suggestion on what I need to do to or have a good copy of the AT&T E-Tab series ROM???
Specifically: 6.01 or 7.01 ROM for SM-T377A ROM
It would make me so happy, THANK YOU,

hi, i have a tab e - sm-t377w
hi, i have a tab e - sm-t377w
hi, I just finish read all posts, my case is to know if I can use the sm-t377p or sm-t377t, in my SM-T377w....
I review all internet and is very dificult to find this firmware, stock rom of this model....
SM-T377W
can anyone bring me a link for download this rom??
please
thanks for all in advance
With my little experiençe you can not downgrade
You need to find same firmware or higher before Odin can work
My bad... I got it...
A good friend of mine gave me his T-Mobile SG S8, SM-G950U after he got his S10e.
I just wanted to confirm that there is absolutely nothing, as far as rooting, that I can do with this?
By all the rooting these phones posts I've looked over, I'm screwed, right?
The bootloader is locked and no OEM option in Developer Options.

Incorrect. It can be rooted on a nougat rom only without unlocking bootloader using JR Kruse's newer method. Bootloader is locked, so no custom ROM, etc.
You can have root, safestrap recovery, etc. on nougat. If you just need safestrap, you can get it with a Pie rom, but no root on Pie.
