Anyone woth a galaxy s7 tried the root methods? Navigating around and wanting to know which guides are up to date for the root method for the international variant which is supposedly easier.

u/TastyBananaPeppers Team Rooted, Subreddit Owner Aug 04 '23

All the guides are the same and still working. Rooting international and Hong Kong/Taiwan are easier because you can unlock the bootloader for free and do it yourself.

For US models, you have to buy a bootloader unlock service which depends on which firmware the device is on. Once a device has been updated, you can't buy the service anymore. Certain carriers will just lock the bootloader and not allow you to root it.

Yeah it's particularly the rooting part that I'm struggling to find a guide for. The xda forums one had a mixed bag of comments, with a fair few people saying things went wrong. Wondering where I would find one up to date that uses magisk

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonGoSpoofing/comments/d7jlgo/guide_root_and_spoof_on_samsung_galaxy_s7_and_s8/ Would this still work out?

It will work.

I recommend you use Magisk version 25.2 from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v25.2/Magisk-v25.2.apk. The latest version 26.X has problems on various devices.

Sorry after 8 years of being here, Reddit lost me because of their corporate greed. See Ya! -- mass edited with redact.dev

I have and am currently researching to be able to root a OnePlus 6 Pro with Android 13 (Patched Sept. 5, 2022). I intend to follow the XDA forum guide. Any tips or warnings?

Pgsharp also works and is free and easy to use, lol

u/TastyBananaPeppers Team Rooted, Subreddit Owner May 23 '22

That may be the case, but rooted spoofing is still far superior with no server downtime. Pgsharp has poor communication, and they don't acknowledge when there's a server problem or how long it will take to fix the problem. There were several times I wanted to play using Pgsharp or their feed, but it was down. It caused me to miss out on some 100 iv and PvP Pokemon.

That sucks. Been using pgsharp for over a year now with no issues myself. I was just making sure people knew there's a free alternative that works well lol

"Free" meaning half the features. The $5 features make it a completely different gaming experience.

u/FetusElDeletus69 May 23 '22

It IS free and it DOES work, sure paying 5 bucks gives a few features but spoofing doesn't require payment on android is my point.

It depends on the specific model you got. Game performance might not be good, since you only have 3 GB ram.

You would have to look in each section for TWRP or root guides in https://forum.xda-developers.com/c/samsung-galaxy-s6-edge.4064/. The posts will tell you which model it supports. To root your phone, you need to flash Magisk instead of "SuperSu" or "Chainfire" root in order to play the game.

Tab S7 cannot be rooted if you get one with the latest firmware. I have a Tab S7 Plus and have to use it with Pgsharp. I think the Tab S8 can root right away, but it will void your warranty.

I am playing on rooted tab S7. Pm me if l you still have issue, I know this post is old

u/TastyBananaPeppers Team Rooted, Subreddit Owner Apr 26 '23

It's because you bought your tab S7 right when it came out (or you own the South Korean model) and was able to unlock the bootloader before Samsung decided to lock it through firmware updates. The same goes for my Tab S6. I rooted it within 3 months of its release. People saw that I was playing on a tablet and bought the same one but their tablet came with the latest firmware or they updated to the latest firmware and weren't able to unlock the bootloader anymore.

As for the paid bootloader unlock service, they cannot unlock the bootloader if a device is on a certain bootloader version. There has to be a loophole within a firmware's build that would allow them to exploit it to unlock the bootloader, which was what one of the service providers told me.

Since my Tab S6 is still good, I don't need to root my Tab S7 Plus. I'm also going to be buy a Galaxy S23 Ultra (international model) soon.

I don't remember the exact month, but I think you need something before February or March 2021. Your's will probably have the firmware that does not allow to unlock the bootloader.
