Download and install Towelroot, run it. Download supersu, busybox, and safestrap. Install. For roms, follow devs instructions to install their roms. Do not skip a step.

I just need to install that on my phone, or computer?...I guess I thought I was going to have to do work with drivers and some other things, and then link the phone up o the computer and all that other stuff...
Anyways thank you very much for your quick help so far!

I think you only need a pc to Odin anything to install modded roms. Nc4 is roots with towelroot, then you just install supersu, busybox, and safestrap and run them.

ok do you get those from the playstore, or from the internet on the phone. When I typed in towelroot on google play, I got DriveDroid (paid), Soft buttons, Root checker and unroot PRO as results.

Are you downloading to a pc? If so which browser are you using? As far as I know to download a stock rom, go to sammobile.com . It's a pain in the butt to log in and everything but once it works, you can download the stock rom from them and flash it via odin. I just did that with my note 10.1 to return it to stock.

MARSHMALLOW 6.0.1 CANNOT BE ROOTED you have will have to back to lollipop and start root procedure.

Intall this app to check your CID if its start with 15
Then you can unlock your bootloader and possibly root on 6.0.1

ccid starts with 110

Unfortunately you cannot unlock your bootloader.
You have to go back to lollipop then root and then install 6.0 Marshmallow.

First download vzw lollipop PB1 stock rom.
You can search in xda for download link

Is this method still working if so my cid is 15

6.0.1 can be rooted and if you are going to odin flash lollipop why? Flash twrp in odin mode then flash supersu zip through twrp. Boom rooted then can flash any rom you want. Easy I've rooted every phone this way. Simple

Why is there still no root?

The title says it all but after this long there is still no root for the s7 edge att? why is that.

root is available.

Just received a new device from at&t, tried flashing per the instructions and the first version of Odinn gave me sha256 errors. (using firmware on the first page)
The PrinceComsy version gave me a "sw rev check fail" and resulted in boot loop. (using firmware on the first page)
-Odin version here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8c1zN7zrnVhM3JNWGtROUJPQW8/view
After downloading the nougat 935U version I flashed with the PrinceComsy version successfully.
Firmware download was from here https://mega.nz/#!zgFzzAYY!_Vo6tr61lwG8XaZNpFqkupaucsRRCv-6ULKylG38uyI
Although you can also get it from Sammobile here https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935U/
- There were two CSC files, I used the first version without the "Home" preface.
I hope the OP updates the first post for those that have had difficulty with devices that come with Nougat.

I saw this (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips) to install an ota when you rooted.
I did some research to know what is flashfire and I read that it could work on other devices than pixel, nexus and samsung.
So I just wanted to know if someone tried and if it works

Xfinity mobile firmware ? Will it flash on sprint ??

Does anyone know if we can flash Xfinity mobile firmware on sprint or Boost mobile an if so will it work right ??

Always flash at your own risk, however, it should work fine. Just dont flash the userdata file.
