Root Solved: Odin + Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930V = No deal :(

[Freedroid]

First of all thank you for your service. I'm truly blessed for a forum like this where people are self-less and like to help others.

I am trying to root my Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930V with Odin3-v3.10.6 using Windows 10. I have not been able to Root it because I get this error:

<ID:0/003> FAIL! (Auth)
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

This is the steps that I have taken:

Unzipped a specific file that contained CF-Auto-Root-heroqltevzw-heroqltevzw-smg930v.tar

I went to developers mode on my phone and enabled OEM unlock, and USB debugging.
I pressed volume down, home, and power button at the same time till I got to the Download screen on my phone. I connected my phone via usb to my laptop.

Odin appears to be reading my phone. I added the CF-Auto-Root file to the AP button on Odin and hit start. Please note that I tried the same steps by trying all my USB ports to make sure that it wasn't my USB port.

Can someone please help? Thank you in advanced.

Edit: This version can be rooted after all. Look below for the instructions.https://androidforums.com/threads/n...ve-locked-bootloaders-and-no-rooting.1012785/

You cannot use CF Autoroot for that device. Look up the T-mobile S7 nougat root thread on XDA. Same process.

Your device can be rooted and it's easy to do.
