as the title says i was abke to successfully frp bypass this verizon s7 that was giving to me by a friend. i included ba screenshot of its current info to help find my answer. it is on 7.0 and everything else is listed in the pic. i just dont wanna get relocked or even have to do it again cause i feel strongly that i lucked out on that try tbh. and i dont know if i should upgrade and root, stay where im at i think ull understand what im asking. thanks to anyone that has any input.
EDIT///throwing the edit just in case this post somehow helps someone in the future the answer to the question asked above is yes you can. A lot of weird shifts going to happen different than the directions given in the Rom dev thread and your face lots of froot loops and we are shutdowns but eventually you'll have root and or the custom rom from the rom thread.

So I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N900t very recently, but I don't what to do first. I have heard and read the first thing I should do it make a complete system backup. Now how do I even start doing that?
Someone and here told me to do it with CWM and TWRP, but didn't explain how, please don't do that explain it to me.
My whole point of rooting was to get rid of the bloatware that came with my phone (which I don't know how to), and to use custom roms.
If you know of any custom roms you recommend please me tell which one and how how to install it, as it will be my first time.
Please be detailed and dumb it down as much as possible as I am very new at this. I'm just a kid really trying to learn.
Someone please help, I'm beginning to lose faith and to think rooting my phone was a very bad idea.
Your best bet is to look at the root thread. It has very detailed information.
Go to CyanogenMod site. You'll have detailed information on how to install CM11 on Note 3.
For other ROMs check the development thread.

Hi guys,
Please excuse my ignorance and thanks for taking the time helping noobs like myself.
So im looking at rooting my S5 to enable me to delete the bloatware and tidy it up a little while not flashing a custom rom but have a few questions. I'm sure they've all been answered but like most things online, the more questions i find answers to, the more seem to pop up.
So firstly I've got a G900F running lollipop. As im only looking to gain root access and not install a custom ROM do i need to downgrade to KK. If this is the case can i pick any date version of the sammobile site, or should i just choose the most recent.
Secondly to root the phone should i just follow the instructions on the link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...ethod-t2843044
They're not crystal clear to me so are there any all out noob guides out there?
Will doing either of these also wipe my phone and regardless should i back it up and if so using what?
Oh but that link i posted doesnt work so....

That one however does!
hey guys, just want to start off saying that I love how helpful and informative everyone is on this site.
I've got a g900v that I newly rooted thanks to jrkrusem, I have installed the custom rom that he has on the tutorial through safestrap.
I figure i will ask before i continue and maybe brick my phone, I am slightly confused about the difference between bok3, bog5, boe1 etc.
I know Ive got a locked bootloader so no custom recovery but I would like to know which roms I can use. Basically I am looking for a little
clarification on this whole process if someone wouldn't mind enlightening me or even if there is a existing thread that I cannot find please leave a link. Thanks!

The last characters in the version designations are basically alphabetical, the order of which you can see here: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-G900V
With BOE1 and up, the bootloader was locked which prevents a downgrade.
The custom recovery for our phone is SafeStrap: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/safestrap-5-0-lollipop-t3313800

I am about to root my Samsung Galaxy S7 - SMG930VLUDU4CQH2 for the first time and I am gathering the files for the job. I have read every post from the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...eres-how-rooted-nougat-s7-edge-g935t-t3567502 . I have the Qualcomm heroqltetfnvzw version so I am sure that I am using the correct thread. The two questions I have are :
- just in case something goes wrong, which stock firmware would I use to get back to original state? The BQA2, BQH4, or the BQA4? , after the Nougat upgrade mine is the CQH2.
Secondly, I have also been reading on the Magisk technique to root and was wondering if anyone has possibly tried both of these out and has compared their stability and lag (or lack of lag)? I understand that that it varies from device to device, I am just talking about the technique.
I have actually read so much that I am getting myself confused on this whole process. Lol. Thank you in advance for your help and I have started following several of the members. You guys rock! :silly:
As the title says, I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900V with CID starting with 11. I've searching tons of pages looking for a way to finally get root or install another ROM. I'm using Android 6.0.1.
I've read a tutorial here where explain how to get root doing a downgrade and installing a Lollipop ROM, but I don't want to leave Marshmallow .
So let me know if I'm right: I don't have any other options to change my ROM? Do I have to keep my phone with this ROM forever? Do we any hope to unlock the bootloader someday? or that's impossible and no one cares about that?
Thank you very much.
