okay...i'll tell you the steps I took that got me to said bootloop..
1. towelroot rooted
2. downloaded supersu from playstore, updated bianary via "normal"
3. tested root w/ xplore app / everything checked out..i had root
4. unlocked the bootloader (got rid of download mode to access fastboot and did the command "fastboot oem unlock"
5. busybox install w/ stericson app
6. flashed twrp via rom installer and a .img file (it was the 415 version I made sure)
7. download pac man rom and gapps from the threads OP and put them on internal memory
8. reboot into recovery
9 wiped dalvik cache/cache/system/data
10 flashed pacman and gapps
11 gapps flash failed, couldn't execute bianary....
at this point i'm not sure if the pacman rom failed also, i just saw the gapps one failed and figured i would boot into the pac man and grab PA gapps......once i hit reboot.....bootloop!
tried to do button combo's to get into recovery....either i'm doing it wrong.....or recovery is borked because of a bad flash...(i think i'm doing it wrong....i press down on volume up+down and power....when i see the logo i let go of power and then hold the power button again???
anyways..fastboot works....but "adb devices" see's nothing
any help is appriciated.....i think i'm just going to exchange it in the store and say it's bootlooping...it's within the 14 days i bought it...and then after that i don't think i'm going to root it..it's to risk for a temp phone till my nexus 6 comes in.....that one is easy to hack...this one is stupid.
derp a derp
it pays to read the QandA common questions and answers....it was on the bottom of that...how to get into recovery....everywhere else on the web was wrong! gah..lol and the gapps isn't what failed..it was the pacman rom...maybe i got a bad download..gonna re-downlaod and try again......
no go
got to recovery.....tried to flash the stock .zip in the thread......nope...eventually it wouldn't mount /system so yeah..i'm going to exchange it at the store and maybe just root it..nothing else..no custom roms for this badboy...not hack friendly

This ROM has a bad boot.img at the moment. The current workaround is to replace the boot.img in the downloaded zip with the boot.img from my CM11 ROM here.
You did everything right, minus not reading thru this forum. Not downing you, but if you had, you would have known about what I stated in my previous paragraph.
If PAC-ROM flashed, you can then power down the device and enter fastboot mode. Extract the boot.img from my ROM to the folder where your copy of the fastboot executable lives, then type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
When that's finished, type:
Code:
fastboot reboot
No need to get discouraged. It may take a day or two, but there's always someone who has an answer to your Android related questions
Thank you Shinobi, your solution helped me deal with my bootlooping that happened to me

This is an unofficial TWRP port for LG-H960A.
Thanks to @KAsp3rd and @GROGG88
I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY. YOU DO EVERYTHING AT YOUR OWN RISK.
READ EVERYTHING and MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE YOU START.
Instructions:
1. You must be on newest stock Marshmallow: H960A20a_00_0316.kdz
You can use LG Bridge to install official update, or download .kdz file HERE
2. You need to have bootloader ulocked.
Official instructions are here: ( Unlocking the Bootloader @ LG Developer )
Remember that this will completely WIPE YOUR DATA, you will LOSE WARRANTY and this operation is IRREVERSIBLE.
3. Flash TWRP.
I assume you got ADB and FASTBOOT drivers working and adb is paired (it should be if you completed step 2).
Connect your phone to your pc, open command prompt and reboot to bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Your phone should reboot and you should be welcomed by Fastboot Mode screen.
Now download the recovery file (below) to your pc, unpack (to get .img) and rename it to recovery.img and put it in folder where you got command prompt open and:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Boot to TWRP.
As on Marshmallow some fastboot commands are not working and LG is restoring recovery on every boot (so you cant use "adb reboot recovery" right now) you need to use one trick.
DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE.
When still in fastboot from step 3 you need to turn off your phone completely. You can do that by holding power button or if that is not working take the battery out.
Now (put the battery in) and press POWER + VOL DOWN buttons. When you see LG logo release the POWER button (while still holding VOL DOWN) and press POWER button again.
You should see a screen which is asking you if you want to factory reset your phone. Don't worry - if you made everything correctly it should not wipe your phone.
Use volume and power buttons to choose YES (twice) - and you should see a TWRP screen (after a while)
WARNING: IF YOU REBOOTED YOUR PHONE AFTER FLASHING RECOVERY THIS STEP WILL REALLY ERASE ALL DATA. You need to flash recovery again (step 3)
5. (optional) flash SuperSU to get root.
Get SuperSU from official thread and put it in your phone.
While in TWRP from step 4 your phone should be recognized by ADB. Use below to move file to sdcard.
Code:
adb push BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip /sdcard/supersu.zip
Now in TWRP click Install, go to /sdcard/ and chooose supersu.zip. Follow instructions. After install you should choose to wipe cache/dalvik and reboot to system.
Your phone should be rooted now.
Download:
twrp-3.0.2.0-0-h960a.img.zip
(unpack .zip to get flashable .img)
Issues:
- Layout is wrong, status bar is being drawn on second screen.
- Date/time is wrong.

OK, now if we have recovery, is it possible to dump rooted system and pack it to .tot file for people who don't want to lose warranty?

Hi,
that's just great, thanks a lot.
As root is now possible has anyone tried to install xposed on th H960A?
I'm wondering if the second screen fix for the Telekom V10 also works with the H960A.
What about Viper4Android and AdAway?

Are there any other known issues? I don`t need to install any custom roms. I need it only for root and xposed on Marshmallow. Is there something that can surprise me?

Ohh, thats sounds nice if this realy possible.

Didn't try xposed but I think it should work (if it's working on other V10 models - they are not that different). I just recently bought V10 and was disappointed in dpi, so I needed root to patch second screen to be dpi-independent.
Also: why would you want things like Viper4Android when you got really good sounding hifi dac onboard?

For sure it's enough to flash packages and get root. Xposed is independent from recovery so I can't say anything about that.
Testing are up to you guys. Don't be afraid as this phone is not easy to brick.

Quite simple answer. The onboard Hifi DAC only works with cable headphones. Viper4Android also supports Bluetooth devices.

There is still a long way, right now second screen FCs are fixed, but layouts are still wrong. I don't know if I can fix it to be truly dpi-independent but I think 560 is optimal value for this screen.

I did try his method and it worked like a charm. Ok, you'll have to reflash TWRP if you want to use it but I'm sure it's just a matter of time until we have permanent TWRP like th T-Mobile V10 obviously has.
Thanks to rudi666 I have root, xposed, adaway and viper4audio up and running on my V10. And as there are no interesting custom roms to flash in my opinion it does not matter that I'd need to reflash TWRP. If you plan your flashing in advance you can flash all zip files in one go. No real need for TWRP afterwards.
Thanks guys. Unfortunately I see there is not much going on in V10 scene, and it's a shame.

Hm.. if you follow instructions you should get permanent TWRP, just try "adb reboot recovery" to test it if you don't want to risk clearing data when using button combination. There is a file called /system/boot-from-recovery.p which is 'restoring recovery' on every boot (that's why there is an info in instruction about not rebooting your phone the first time), but after all the steps this file will be patched. I don't remember if the first use of TWRP or flashing SuperSU does it, but you should get permanent recovery. If not you can always rename this file manually.

Hi,
I will try that again and see if I can get permanent TWRP. But as I said currently there is no real requirement for that. I flashed SuperSU and both files for xposed when I first booted into recovery and that is all I need at the moment.

Thank you for developing these Roms for our beloved s7 edge! I am going to flash this rom and see if i can get my gear s2 working with it as i have heard people are having issues. I will report back anything that seems broken and all of the exciting new features that work. I appreciate all of the time you put into these roms!
EDIT: I have noticed when I use Open gl (skia) as my renderer in development settings I get snappier performance and better battery life. Could someone else confirm this? If so would it be changed as default renderer when phone boots? I can set it in developer options but if I do a reboot it defaults back to open gl.
yessss!!!! will you make this for the other carriers esp. Tmobile
Incredible ! Thanks @jrkruse !

It was my usb cable. I was able to transfer the image over and flash it. all is good now. I am going to try to pair my gear s2. Also I am curious if my gear vr will work or complain like it did with the beta nougat rom from last year.

I couldn't get this rom to pair with my gear s2. It is fantastic though...very snappy! I was suprised to see the dual audio feature implimented on the s7...i thought it was a chipset feature only available on the s8. Everything else seems to work great! I noticed that the camera has the stickers feature.

Bluetooth is kind of wacky you can not control incall volume on bt but media is fine. Another issue is safetynet. It will pass basic integrity check but other check fails so some apps will work and some won't that use safetynet. Android pay is one that does not but samsung pay works fine as well as other samsung apps like secure folder and pass

Thank you sir. Amazing is you, works great much better than safestrap and much easier to get into and out of. I hope one day im able to return the favor and help you out with something to make your life easier as you have done with countless people, much appreciated
Thank you so much for all the work you have done here and for injecting this phone with a much needed revitalization.
Now for the first dumb question, what can be flashed? ROMs? Custom Kernel? (Nethunter?) Any idea would ve helpful. Thanks again!

i thinks i updated to "G935TUVS8CRJ1" can i be flash on it?
Quick question. I just used this method to root my phone (v4 bootloader, CRI2 firmware if I'm reading it right). I had been looking at the post [Rom][ALL+CARRIERS_CRF1][Stock_Oreo_Hybrid][Safestrap_Preinstalled]. That one seemed like a good deal because of the followup post on Safestrap flashable zips, like Xposed framework, Extreme Debloater, Dual Speaker, etc....
I didn't consider that ROM because of the big warning Must Be On Stock CRF1, whereas I'm on CRI2 and this looked nicer anyway.
So, just to be sure I understand, now that I've used this method to root my phone I can install all those things and more by using this technique to get into TWRP on my phone. Correct? Further, I can use TWRP in this way to flash anything except a custom bootloader. Yes?
More specifically, all those ROMs listed over in the general Tools Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development forum that say "for G9350 only", I can use this TWRP to flash those on my G935T ?? Is that right?

Should have been aware of what you are flashing a bootloader update is always an attempt to patch something. Usually root related. It is never to benefit the user. The first indication to me would have been a 4 version jump in bootloader versions all in one shot. I warned people all along that a bootloader change would come one of these days and kill root. Sprint seen it months ago. Tmobile and Sprint can now have there cozy little relationship with one another. I feel bad for you tmobile people. Remember when tmobile was the friendly carrier in the dev community along with sprint as well now they are the most unfriendly carrier in the dev community.

Twrp gives you no more options than you had before. You cannot just magically go flashing anything you want just because you have twrp. You can run a stock rom and mod it a little and that is it

No, if your build number indicates that you're on the v8 bootloader, you're screwed for now. If you like the S7's features, you can grab an Exynos. Those you can root and modify to your heart's content. Plenty of custom ROMs available. It's not too expensive either. It's what I'm going to upgrade to, since I'm tired of this bull with the bootloader, and my glass is cracked anyway. Would probably cost nearly as much to repair as to just buy an Exynos.

That's a false positive by a single antivirus program. VirusTotal gives it clean on 54 out of 56 antivirus programs, and one of those is merely "suspicious," probably because it's a rooting tool.

Currently, I'm pretty sure it is virtually impossible for yout to trip your knox counter by rooting as far as I'm aware the only way to do so would mean you need to unlock your bootloader which cannot be done. Rooting your device will however disable safetynet and knox features such as but not limitted to android/samsung pay ect. This is why it's called east root/unroot though because once you unroot and if you didn't delete knox/google apps, it all should still work. The point of this is of course, so you can modify your phone with ease, then unroot and everything should work properly.
There is a major difference between rooting and unlocking the bootloader.
Just don't do something like attempt to install a custom ASOP rom or kernel that isn't supported by this device since it requires an unloocked bootloader.
I'm so glad I read everything before jumping into anything right away. Haha Verizon and Smart Switch are trying to get me to accept the new update to the V8 as we speak. It's funny how they always seem to have updates when someone like Jrkruse figures out how to let us actually do what we want with our devices. I have learned always read read read before doing anything to any phone unless you want to take an update meant to stop us from doing anything fun with the phones. Good job sir!!

Hello, when attempting to unroot using the supersu app, when i hit Full Unroot in the Cleanup section, the popup window warning about the unroot only has a selection of "OK" when I select that, nothing happens.
Also, the S7E root_unroot_abd_tools.z7 does not have a setup.exe that I saw, I am looking to unroot my phone that I followed the instructions for the S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root_V11.zip method that you ended up moving that thread here.

The zip named S7_S7E_ROOT_UNROOT_ADB_TOOLS.7z that I received from this OP did not contain a setup.exe as well.
The actual root file and process I followed was from https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-s7-s7edge-oreo-nougat-t3819616

Beware If you update to new V8 bootloader then rooting and everything will not work. You will be stuck on stock possibly for good

I know I'm asking this in two places now... but how do I prevent this? Which firmware version do I *NOT* Update to?
I've finally summoned the courage to upgrade to oreo with the advances in TWRP and such... so I'm assuming I have to flash to stock Oreo....... but which version is the one before v8?
How do I check my version of BL?

Easiest way... Settings>about phone>software info. Look at build number and baseband version. Count back 5 digits. Will either be a 2, 4, or 8
So if I install this U firmware G935UUES4CRH2 I should still be good to root correct? Also, is there any difference between the U firmware and the Latest non V8 Verizon firmware, other than maybe the Verizon bloat? I am running my phone on Verizon just wanted to see if there a difference between the two?
