Set device to official with root - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio

This is a way to make the device status to official even with root. This module was not created by me and is just being used to show a process on how to make it work. This method works on mm and n.
First root device following the instructions per firmware in the forums, then by using flash fire install Xposed framework using unofficial or official versions of xposed. Then install a module called "Firefds kit",go into security hacks and enable the option the screen screen shots , this will also remove the lock and words custom when phone boots,and you will still have root ,this doesn't hide root only trick the phone to think it has been modified
Use at own risk

ROOT ON OC1 WITH WONDERSHARE! Kingroot apk and desktop NOT working

heres the link http://www.wondershare.com/mobile-phone/how-to-root-android.html
JUST now rooted stock oc1 after flashing xposed uninstall through flashfire it got stuck on bootloop. I Odin flash to stock nonroot oc1 and used this to regain root. Currently installing flashfire to install deodexed oc1 and reinstall xposed will update. PC NEEDED to root. But it is one click. This also installs supersu. Make sure you have developer enabled and click ENABLE USB DEBUG. I wish all of you with no luck using kingroot... GOOD LUCK!
*******not responsible for anything that might happen this worked FOR ME it DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL FOR YOU Things like this can cause brick. Rooted schi545 on stock bloated clean oc1 lollipop using this*************
*****edit*** mods im new to the site but i posted this here because of a number of threads about failed kingroot on oc1 please move accordingly as you see fit thanks
UPDATE:
Flashfire successfully updated the stock wondershare rooted oc1 with rooted deodexed oc1 stock.
I Disabled supersu
Launched android pay with NO XPOSED FRAMEWORK INSTALLED
application successfully verified and added my cards
Then Used flashfire to flash xposed xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430-arter97-V3.zip (the frame work not installer) - listed in the link below. Phone booted fine with ANDROID IS UPGRADING at startup with 238 apps. Then installed the v3 alpha 2 installer. Says framework not active but it is.
i dont take any credit for xposed on oc1 credit due to respective owners just following direction and want to condense everything ive been doing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3113463
This gets xposed working reliably on oc1 along with android pay (ive yet to pay so will have to update upon successful transaction but my cards are added)
I WOULD HIIIIIIIIIIIIGHLY SUGGEST IF YOU WANT ANDROID PAY TO WORK ON YOUR XPOSED ROOTED OC1 DO NOT FLASH THE XPOSED UNINSTALLER it gave me a boot loop at vzw splash screen. Instead i suggest you REFLASH PREROOTED DEODEXED oc1 using flashfire to remove the frame work since flashfire performs a full wipe, then disable supersu once booted go through the android pay set up and once you have all the cards you want added reenable supersu and reinstall xposed framework via flashfire and restore your data. This is what i did... the second time which is why im advising against using the xposed uninstall zip.
So I finally got around to trying to purchase with android pay on my stock deodexed somewhat debloated and rooted xposed oc1. The phone and terminal act as if my nfc isn't even turned on nothing happens

ROOT stock MM

Hello is there a way to root the stock mm rom?
If I flash the super su binaries manually will it work? i've already got my TWRP installed on my device.
thanks for your help (if you help me )
SuperSU version 2.65-3
Yes you can root it but it is BETA
So don't expect it to work perfectly like it does on Lollipop.
There was security changes in Android that made things different on MM.
I advise people be extra cautious when planning on Rooting with MM.
There is a bunch of topics created on how to do this (i made one for example)
What you HAVE to do is get a special version called SuperSU "systemless" installed
this is a new way to get root on that was made because of security changes on Marshmallow.
Don't just start flashing things on your phone with out researching first or you may brick your phone.
I know i did that myself LOL
Then realize because the new Root works different then you may have some app's now not work properly.
For example make sure you use the most current updates if you use Stericson's BusyBox (35 pro or 41 free or higher)
Research and read on it then make sure to only use the Flashable zip format's shared by chainfire.
Don't just install APK's.. he tells you this on his pages over & over.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks, i know just installing the APK won't do anything, actually after posting this i tried the latest version of the systemless root, and my phone bricked, it wouldn't even show me the boot logo, and in the bootloader I didn't have a baseband version, thank god I had a back up
I'm now following your post and i'm going to try and root my phone after i'm done backing it up, btw do you know if xposed works with this systemless root? I want to use gravity box so I can add a few tweaks to the stock rom... and I also want to unnintall system apps with titanium backup, but these aren't that important as the tweaks..
Not too sure never used Xposed but i was Google searching and found a fix from guys for the Moto-G
I had to use, BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.zip
Newer versions failed to patch the bootloader and do a systemless install.
Use a newer one and then look in the TWRP console (after flashing from TWRP)
You can see on newer versions it simply does a normal install.
So if it does NOT patch your Bootloader for you then your screed.. bricked !
Re-Install the firmware then..
SO far installing BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651
worked to get the Bootloader patched and the systemless version installed.
Then before exiting TWRP i have flashed over-top (with out restarting) BETA-SuperSU-v2.67-20160121175247
Get them from here..
EXPERIMENT: Root without modifying /system #2: Automation
Supposedly updating to 2.71 Beta is suppose to work.
But i am sketchy about it and 2.67 is for sure working good.
I just tried tonight 2.71 beta updating over-top via TWRP
and i think it was ok i guess.. i have not tested it much though.
(not sure if it will auto-patch the bootloader on a fresh install on it's own with out needing an old version first)
Get 2.71 here.. Note, i am sure chainfire said he merged those older versions into 1 beta version now.
[BETA][2016.03.30] SuperSU v2.71
You have to make sure you have these versions downloaded and ready on your SD card before you start fiddling..
Because if you are on MM and you install and it does not tell you in the console log you got your bootloader patched
..you got a brick on your hands when you reboot LOL
NOTE:
2.65 stable (on Play Store) will NOT work for Marshmallow guys.. it's too old etc.

[HOW TO] Install Xposed Framework on SM-G530AZ

Okay so I have not seen anything new in regards to us unfortunate enough to have the Cricket variant of the grand prime, so I decided to put together a little step by step to get xposed installed and running on this device, I think it may work on others as well, but since I have not attempted it then do not just assume it will. This guide is as stated in the sub line of the post for the SM-G530AZ running 5.1.1 Lollipop. I am not responsible if you brick or bootloop etc etc your device. So long as you can follow directions you should be fine.
1. First of all you must already have root access on your device, mine is using SUPERSU to handle root requests. If you do not have root yet then check forums for way to do so it is there already, however you must root with kingroot or manually with the same exploit that kingroot is leveraging in order to obtain it before attempting the install of xposed, otherwise it will fail.
2. You need to download the zip file attached to this post to your desktop or device and unzip it into your device sdcard.
3. Once you have extracted the apk and zip files into the sdcard you need to install the xposed installer apk so make sure you have enabled Unknown Sources from your settings/Security menu and you may get a warning from the device as well that is okay just tap okay and finish the install.
4. Now you need to download flashfire from the play store and install it as well. Open flashfire and flash the xposed-v80.0-sdk22-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20160211.zip that you will have extracted Choose flash zip in flashfire and make sure you leave automount unchecked. You can open the xposed installer app to make sure it recognized it, which it should if you flashed it properly.
5. Now you can enjoy the Xposed Framework on your device.
I am currently attempting to learn as much as I can about the trust zone and smc as I can tell you that is the only way we are going to get custom recovery and roms on this thing sadly. I am also following someone who claims to be able to rollback android from 5.0+ to 4.0-4.4.4 via jtag which is something I too have pondered on if it was possible and honestly I think it would be, I would like to explore the possibility that their may have been more vulnerabilities within the device prior to the 5.1.1 update I currently have 5.1.1 installed which is what the device had at time of purchase for me, however some may still be running 4.4.4 if you happen to be using 4.4.4 still then I cannot say whether this guide will work or not for you I think it would but you would probably need to use a little older version of the xposed installer but I am not certain, I would probably just update to lollipop if you really want to be safe about it and the firmware has been posted on these forums as well. Please hit the thanks if this helped you out at all, and if you are confused or have an issue you can pm me and I will try my best to get back to you whenever possible. But this is how I got xposed working on my device by simply rooting with kingroot, then using the mrw script to remove kingroot and replace with supersu and enabling unknown sources. The root guide that exists for this device however stated to flash some other boot.img and I actually had issues when I did that step, so after i went back to stock again I did the root guide with kingroot and did not ever flash that other boot image and all worked fine for me.
Awesome thanks. I assume install King root then flashfire then SuperSU binary then uninstall king root. For SuperSU?

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Thank you so much!!!!!! I have been trying to do this for 3 days now!!! I have soft bricked my device, restored it, got it going again, soft bricked again. Over and over. Until finally, today on my first day off all week I took the time to read your posts over again. I found this one and it finally got me there! I have the same exact phone, Cricket Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Model SM-G530AZ. I have been struggling to find a TWRP or CWP recovery and I am pretty sure there isn't one available currently. So then I found this method and FINALLY SUCCESS!!!!! Anywhere I can donate to you?

I can't root my Oppo K1 nor instal custom recovery. Please help!

Hi. My phone is Oppo K1 (PBCM30) running Android 8.1.0 with ColorOS V5.2. I buy this phone through AliExpreess, since this phone not yet available in my country, thus give me ColorOS version which designed specifically for China region. I tried many attempt to root my phone with no avail. The closest way to ALMOST successfully root is to install Kingroot, but is is blocked by installation security with message "A high risk threat has been detected. The system has prohibited this installation. This app contain following risk: It contains the root permission, the highest phone permission, which once obtained by an app, can be use to maliciously control your phone." And before you ask, YES, I have enabled the Install From Unknown Source option.
Other way to root that I've tried is to flash SuperSU. But this way requires me to install custom recovery first, which of course impossible for me since the requirement to install custom recovery is the phone has been rooted. Besides, it look like there's no version of TWRP available for this phone yet. Another attempt (by Kingoroot, iRoot, and all kind of ways-to-root, both with and without PC) has failed miserably.
I love this phone, but it really drives me crazy with it's unrootable state. Please help me!!
It's don't make a sense
I mean, for flashing TWRP, my device need to be rooted, but for rooting my device, it need to flash TWRP first. How the heck I do that?

Widevine/DRM status and official updates after root?

Hi,
I am considering getting the 7.2 in the 6 GB/128 GB edition. Usually I unlock the bootloader and root my phones (Magisk), to be able to use apps such as TitaniumBackup and Magisk Modules like YouTube Vanced.
Has anybody rooted their phone and can report back the availability of Widevine L1 and passing of SafetyNet (Magisk and/or DRM Info) after rooting? How does the phone handle official updates after rooting, do they still come in OTA or do they need to be flashed manually?
Thanks!
I wonder if camera quality gets worse, too.
I hope it's not the same case as with Sony devices...
No, the camera does not get worse.
OTAs
After unlocking the bootloader, I was unable to install any OTA updates. The system did allow downloading them, yet I couldn't get it to install them.
UPDATE
Turns out, you can install OTA updates with an unlocked bootloader. Though, it only works with the stock kernel. So, if anyone installed twrp or any custom kernel, OTAs would not work.
I have both Magisk and EdXposed installed. The latter is a means of using Xposed on the phone. GravityBox works like a charm
