Xposed Framework - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

So since our glorious devices have achieved root, I was actually curious on if there was a way to use Flashfire to flash Xposed into our devices? I'm not much of an expert but I've read some articles saying it can be done just on other devices. Thanks for the answers in advance!

It'd likely take a modified version of Xposed, as we have locked bootloaders.

[Q] Towelroot

Hello big guys.
I'm a noob when it comes to roots and roms on phones.
I have been using the offical touchwiz still and is a little interested in rooting the phone and installing cyanogenmod to make it work faster.
I've read that there is a one click method to root called towelroot right now, I want to try it because I don't really understand how to root with other ways on the forum.
And I'm wondering if anyone has tried it before so I can use it and move on to the next step of flashing a custom rom.
Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately Towelroot doesn't support this device yet. I tried earlier today
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2623635 this is the link to the everything thread for the captivate glide. They have root instructions there, and they're pretty straightforward
Good luck!

"Working" Towelroot APK

For those of you looking for the "working" Towelroot APK, I've attached it to this post. It still does not work for me but maybe it will for someone else.
To all developers - I've tried every root method possible on this phone including all methods included in Bin4ry's tool. If anyone needs a logcat, I would be glad to provide it. I really don't want to regret buying this phone.

You can downgrade to 3.5 and root it. Look in my R&D thread.

Am I missing something? I don't see it. Has someone confirmed the downgrade?

[Q] Temporary Root?

Has anyone tried any methods on the G4? I havn't found any specific information for this device other than somebody saying it can be done.
Z4root?
Wondershare?
iRoot?
1. i dont think anyone tried any of those, brcause the devs saying that there is no root yet
2. if you want you can try it out
Someone in the AT&T forum tried oneclickroot.com and his phone is bricked. If there was root available for any variant other than the 815, we would all be rooting right now.

Well put. And the devs. Are currently working on trying to simplify for people to root, and less chances of people bricking their phone. So we just have to be patient and let the devs do what they are good at. Once they figure it out it will be all over xda. Until then lets just be patient.

Still the safest and THE only safe source of rooting IS XDA. Don't linger around on other weird 'we root all' apps/sites!

Please point me in the right direction...

Ok sorry in advance for seeming like a noob... I haven't rooted an android device since the galaxy prevail years ago.... I currently have a sprint galaxy s6 ( BOL1 UPDATE) and I have been looking for how to root it but either I'm missing something or I haven't seen any root specific posts regarding the BOL1 UPDATE... I just want to be safe before flashing anything so any guidance in the right direction would be greatly appreciated...
Unikernel or Systemless Root with the new SuperSU will work.

Might be time. I would want to bring in @JoeFCaputo113 who created the original guide that we all used to get started.
Joe, a lot of people are asking if the same methods work for OL1. (They do, but people ask.)
And we can address using the new SuperSU (which Joe originally posted about) as well.
Thoughts?

Should I root my A50?

Last phone I rooted was my mi 9. So far i Havent yet, should I? what do you guys think
Don't root. Not worth the risk and effort. GCam does not work no matter you root or not.

lol i wanted opinions, specifically people who rooted their a50.
I dont see many roms tho :/
I always root my mobile phones. For example to use macrodroid and soms apps that use root.
Can anyone recommend what rom I should get?
So is it true, that you lose root after rebooting? I dont want to root if thats the case
