If you received the OTA firmware update like I did, you probably loss root access and it's now very hard to re-root. This is because Samsung updated the Knox partition and also the firmware.
What does this means?
Even if you flash an older version of your firmware, Knox partition will remain the same and you still won't have root access.
NOTICE: Root might be easy for some, but Xposed is really tricky to install on this device. Please backup all your files from your internal storage because there are minor chances your device might go into a boot loop, meaning you WILL have to flash a firmware again, this DOES NOT means you need to wipe your device, but it's always better to be prepared for the worst.
If you have no problem installing Xposed on your E7, this post is not for you! This is only if you received the OTA update!
1. ROOTING YOUR PHONE
- Install Kingo Root on your computer and follow the step by step instructions, just make sure to enable USB debugging from the developer options on your device and click accept when prompted to connect with your computer. You will have to wait from 5 to 20 minutes for the software to try multiple ways to root your device, sometimes it is really fast and sometimes it takes a while, it really depends on your firmware so if you fail to gain root access just go ahead and try another firmware from Sammobile. I use E700HXXU1AOAC_E700HUUB1AOAC_TPA and works really well, this is the firmware for Panama and it's NOT the newest one, however it has worked quite well for me. // CF Auto-Root used to worked before, however, after the update it is no longer working on this device :crying:
NOTICE: Disabling Knox voids your warranty and removes a very cool feature from your phone. Without Knox, anyone can steal your device and become its new owner. Why? Well, Knox links your device to your account only, no one else can use it unless having your user and password from Samsung, even after a full factory reset! So please keep this in mind, I'm willing to sacrifice this because I love Xposed.
2. DISABLING KNOX
- Now that you have Root Access, you need to install SuperSU to disable KNOX. Just go to the play store, download SuperSU, open it and grant root access to it using Kingo Root. You should now be prompted to Disable Knox and obviously you have to accept that!
3. OPTIONAL - Removing Kingo
- Download Titanium Backup from the Play Store so that you can remove your old Kingo User app... you won't need it anymore because you now have SuperSU. You can also uninstall Kingo App :good:
That's it! Rooted and without KNOX you can now install Xposed with no problems! No need for custom recoveries, just follow the classical procedure.
If you need help installing Xposed now that your device is properly rooted and without Knox, make sure to visit the other posts for more details.

How to root Lenovo A7000 without PC?
AFAIK, it's not really possible right now. Also, even if it were possible, those methods use some exploit to root and might install malware on your phone. Happened with a friend of mine.
Root it via KingRoot.after root replace it via SuperSU.And enjoy every thing.
Hello all,
Does anyone know how to recover deleted contacts and their text logs from a Samsung-SM-G920A, using Android Version 5.1.1 , Baseband version G920AUCU3BOJ7?
I've already replaced the phone so I honestly don't care if destroy the phone to get these files back. My only fear is permanently losing the data. Every recovery method I've come across so far, requires a ROOT which is not yet available.
Would greatly appreciate all the help I can get
root it using kingroot or pingpong root
Hi all !
I have decided to root my tab s2 to gain access to system to modify parameters to disable add user option in notification. I see no other working option.
Request to help me with the required tools and guide to root. Will it be possible to update to nougat after I root ?
Is it possible to root the device and stay on the same andriod version ? I have previous rooted my other phones including pantech burst and samsung wave 2 but not able to find a complete guide for tab s2 SM-T715
Thanks a lot !
Yes, it possible to root the device and stay on the same andriod version. Matter of fact, once rooted you should disable OTA updates for thyat can break root and your device.
You could update the OS manually via TWRP.
But first and for most, you had better make a system backup before tinkering about.

Moreover, TWRP can give you temporary root access.
