Help with the Samsung SM G935V Verizon root process! - SuperSU

Hi there. I have been spent countless hours to find out how to root this thing Samsung SM G935V Verizon. I found a way by the the TWRP, going on DOWNLOAD MODE on the device and flash with Odin. I have tried with diferent usb cables and usb ports as well as odin versions. I always get RQT_CLOSE and finally odin write failed. I've read other posts they meintoned all Samsung S7 Edge on US carries have bootloader locked and that is the reason why. Having understood that. I would like just to have different ways to either root the device or install somehow a TWRP so I can get this thing root. Currently my phone got installed the latest Android 8.0 version.
PD: Any way to get root access on my Samsung SM G935V Verizon would be greatly appreciated.

SM-T350 (Wifi) US Firmware

I have been looking for 3 days now for the US firmware for the SM-T550NZASXAR (might be the same as SM-T550NZAAXAR) and I can't find it. Sam mobile has the files for many countries but fails to show the US version. Am I missing something?
The digitizer keeps losing the touch sensing ability but I'm pretty sure it's a software problem as it comes back after maybe 15 minutes then it stops again after about 20 minutes of use. I want to try and re-install the OS with Oden and see if it clears whatever is going on. I'm hoping it's just bad cache or something.
The Canadian version is usually the same but double check just in case
Sent from my SM-T350 using XDA Free mobile app
Same Issue. I been also looking for US firmware for my SM-T350 Samsung Galaxy Tab A. I see it available for all other countries but not for USA. For all people that live in the US like me. We need to all nag Samsung & complain cause obviously they only support it for all other countries & not US. It pisses me off & it's so unfair. I need the firmware for part of the procedure to fix my rooted tab that's in bootloop
Upset with T-350 firmware situation
I've experienced the same disatisfaction with the non-availability of firmware. I'm also having trouble finding TWRP dedicated for this, kingrooted, device (sm-t350). Any insight? I've read the xda thread on compiling twrp on my own but I'm thinking that's still a bit over my head. I bought multiple cool apps since rooting my device only to find out I need twrp (or cwm) to make use of what these app have to offer.
Thx

twrp for SM-T350 is file name twrp-28.71-t350.tar
I can't link or i would link you it. Just google search that file name and there is one from android file host
Flash with Odin 3.10.7
Tested and works perfect
Seth50 gets all the credit just confirming it works
WOW! i have been messing with this for hours and cant believe that the samsung smart switch offered such an easy solution.
i made the mistake of flashing a rooted firmware file before unlocking the bootloader and soft bricked it. the smartswitch asks for the model# (SM-T350) and the serial number (no, im not putting mine here), tells you to enter odin mode and then it does all of the dirty work for you... amazing!
one thing to keep in mind is that the install for smart switch will not work on newer machines unless you install legacy software that you can find here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=5582

I realize this is an old thread, but looking for help. Purchased a Wifi-only Galaxy Tab A, and looking for the stock 6.0.1 ROM. The Smart Switch software doesn't downgrade it anymore. They've since updated the software to remove that capability, but even older versions still reapply Nougat. Sammobile.com doesn't seem to have it. Has anyone had success finding the stock MM US ROM for this tablet? If you're asking why, adb restore doesn't work on Nougat and I'm trying to restore backups without root. I have a second SM-T350 fresh out of the box, and restore is working. So, want to downgrade to official MM to restore, then maybe upgrade again if I feel like it....
Edit: Embarrassingly, it's in this same forum.... Download it now...I'll see myself out....

Need help with a bricked phone.

Hello. I was trying to root my phone using instructions from here: http://www.androidvillaz.com/2016/03/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s6-on-marshmallow-6.0.1.html
Once the kernel wrote and said successful, I was no longer able to turn on my phone.
What I've done for the past several hours was try to download stock images and write them on using Odin but to no avail. I've searched all over the internet and there doesn't seem to be an answer or I don't get it.
My model number according to the android recovery (I don't have TWRP yet) is G920AUCS4CPG1 Android 6.0.1.
I'm able to access Android Recovery, download mode and I have Samsung Drivers installed on my PC to use with Odin.
I'm not super familiar with adb but if that needs to be used I can figure it out.
I'm willing to paypal 50 US bucks to whoever gives me the right advice to get my phone working again. If this last line is in violation of rules please remove.
I'm desperate. Help.

There is not a root available for AT&T phones running
G920AUCS4CPG1
I don't think there is a root available for AT&T after 5.11 Android...but I could be wrong.
I would restore your phone to stock rom and then reupdate using OTA after that.

I really appreciate the fast response. They gave good information, but outdated. Everywhere I see says my phones supposed to show a red android icon after I start the root process, and its just stuck on the blue downloading screen. Not only that but all the linked posts are from android 6.0 and lower. I'm on android 7.0 and have no idea how to change that to root my phone or find a root for that version. I followed one of the guides to the letter but it did say for 6.0 idk if that makes a difference or not.

Possible/Not Possible to root the Note 8

Hey yall,
So I have a Galaxy Note 8 and of course it is SM-N950U VZW running Android Pie, and BL is N950USQS8DTJ1. Now all the crap I've dug through to research the process to root it I haven't found any way to do so. Now I'm curious as to wether it can be done considering Snapdragon wont allow the bootloader to be unlocked? Now I have read one forum that claims that we can now unlock the bootloader on Snapdragon but all i could seem to find was a bunch of bickering back and forth. Is it possible to do so now or is it just a fancy ruse? If someone can point me to the right path i would appreciate it. Please keep in mind that i am somewhat familiar with the process of rooting but I'm a better tech than I am on the software side so please be specific about your answer and forgive me for my lack of knowledge. I'm self taught over a couple years now so it's been a try and learn process. I'm also curious as to if cwm or twrp can be installed and used on it as well.

Exact same scenario... I see some ROOT possibilities with S7 bootloader, but appears ours is S8, so is ROOT possible with this BL version?

Trying to use root method from Extreme Syndicate, in particular, XDA RD elliwigy, even though it says for BL S7 and I have S8. Not getting far... ODIN3 tool hangs in flash process... not sure this will work, but continuing to hack at it...

Did successfully root Note 8 with S8 and loaded Nougat. ODIN3 wasn't working, but after reading thru the thread, I used a different cable, directly into a USB port on the PC (was on a hub), then ODIN3 worked fine. Will live with the 80% battery issue for now. May buy a OnePlus 7T evidently best (easiest?) phone to root? The Note 8 is not my primary phone and was a phone I had laying around so it'll do for now. Thanks to this forum for providing a solution albeit not ideal. Like these small victories.
Does this work for N950USQS8DTJ1?

Yes, that is the same version of mine... works but with caveats... for one, I couldn't get Life360 to work after rooting... Tried all versions, including old ones for Nougat, no worky. Some apps don't work, some are quirky, however, only affects few apps here and there. Overall, everything works just like on stock OS. And very thankful it is an available option for root. The biggest thing for me is the battery bug, max charge of 80% just doesn't cut it, doesn't last all day, so I'm forced to carry a portable charger, and it's only going to get worse over time. This alone is going to force me to get another phone, maybe a OnePlus 7T, I see those are supposedly easiest to root. But this root does work for yours (and my) version of Note 8!
