No root on pie. Nougat only. And if your on a bit 7 firmware no root even for any. 5th digit from thr far end of your firmware is the bit number. 1 through 7 your in pie so 5 to 7

Recently I came across this article: https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s7/how-to/root-s7-att-g930a-g935a-t3410538 providing instructions on rooting both the g930a and g935a models. However, much to my dismay this root was performed using version 6.0.1, and alas, I'm running on nougat 7.0. I've searched all over the forums trying to find an answer as to whether this method still works for devices running on 7.0 however, I cannot find a direct answer. Does anyone know if the method of rooting used in the above article still works for a g930a running on 7.0 nougat?
All help is appreciated.

Yes there is root for 7.0. Just look through the forum and you will find what you need.

I've searched through but I cannot find such things? Forgive me for I've never been good at my "google-fu" or searching forums, however I will go back and do a double take. I'll continue looking, but would it be possible for you to point me in the right direction?

Sorry for asking.
As you all know , Chinese verson of smartphones are usually come with some "Useful Apps" like Baidu or QQ
But I don't need them and I want to find a way to delete them for more space to my phone.
After searching I found a lot but they're all working in Android 5.1.1 .
I've already uploaded my device to the latest verson.
So, do any of you have a way to root the Samsung Galaxy A7(2016),aka SM-A7100 (Chinese verson)under Android 6.0.1?
And if anyone can teach me how to flash a Hongkong ver. rom to the phone , it' be much better.
Thanks.
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!

I ran searches in the forum and all i could find is the ROOT Tutorial. Is there any ROMs available for the Tab A 2017 (SM-T385). I was earlier having a T285 and traded it for this. Lucky the tab is running on 7.1.1. But would like to have a taste of 8.0. Is there any ROMS available for T385.
Thanks in Advance.
I have asked before bur never got an answer either.
Hi,
I have a Sprint Samsung S8 (SM-G950U) running on Android 9.0 Rev 1.0 (G950USQS6DSJ1).
I need to downgrade to Android Version 8.0.
Is it possible to do so?
I have not had any luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
Either I can or cant and if I can, I will continue research. If not, I will drop it.
Thank you!
