Root

Root has finally been achieved over at the ATT S7 section! From what I understand, it should work on all S7 variants but I haven't been home to test it out or else I would have already. If anyone wants to try it and report back here I will update this thread accordingly. Test at your OWN risk.

Also do not update supersu through playstore untill we are for sure that it wont mess anything up Notice from @Chainfire I'm just going to leave this here... SuperSU-v2.74-2-S7QC.zip You will need: - Engineering boot images posted here earlier - Patched version of Odin3 to be posted here shortly by @br3w3r (only AT&T models ?) - Run root.bat with adb on the path This version of SuperSU is not officially supported. I recommend against updating the APK from the Play Store, or otherwise updating the binaries, unless someone knowledgable has tried before you and confirmed it worked. If it breaks, you get to keep all the pieces. First of all thanks to @Chainfire for helping achieve su and @princecomsy for giving me the odin file and engboot I take no responsibility for anything that happens to your device, same goes for everyone that helped. First file you will need is here http://d-h.st/gsDA This is special Odin to bypass SHA-256 made by Princecosmy Second file you will need is http://d-h.st/lQY8 This is the engboot. Using @billas since its already uploaded. Basically once you have these two files open up the odin included and place the .tar in the ap section should only take a few seconds to flash. After you are back up download SuperSU made for our phone from here http://ift.tt/29FiuAw Extract the files to a folder. Here it may get a bit tricky for some. Go to your adb install location. Open a command window where your adb files are located. Change the directory to your supersu folder location from earlier, and run the root.bat from the cmd. I am not very good at instructions as this is my first time doing anything like this. Bounty info: elsa3id.3agwa@gmail.com / Paypal please Again thank you to everyone who helped! We made it fam! If you are successful after rooting and can give better instructions please let me know!
