Last updated on March 25, 2019 By Selva Kumar A34 Comments

So, to reduce the confusion, I give the name and Also the Model Numbers. This method Supports Both Nougat and Oreo Android Versions. The TWRP is tested with Oreo and Nougat versions.

Why root your Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime?

First of all, you can Uninstall unwanted apps like Samsung Galaxy Store and theme If you Didn’t use. You can use Lite Weight ROMS; they consume 1 GB -1.5 GB RAM. But Normal this Custom UI Skin absorbs 2.2.5-2.5 GB RAM. So with Balance 500-750 MB, you can’t handle the Heavy Weight apps.

Enabling developer option

  • Enable USB Debugging Mode and OEM Unlock; you’ll find these options at Settings >>> Developer options.

What more?

There are plenty of Custom ROMs available for Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime. My favorite is Some Lineage OS. They are near to Stock Android. I Love it. To Uninstall unwanted Apps, you can try- System App Remover. Hey, Care about what you uninstall. Don’t mess with com. google apps and UI Apps if you still use Samsung OS. If you install other Custom ROMs, they are already optimized. If you accidentally bricked your mobile during the process, you can flash J7 Prime Stock firmware.

    Hi, I tried several times to follow the steps outlined, but, sadly device my fails to be rooted.
    Odin shows that the TWRP is ‘PASSED,’ but, during the reboot into the recovery stage, always goes to the Andriod recovery and not the TWRP recovery.
    Any help here?
    Sorry. Am using a Samsung j7 prime. Sm-g610y. Android 7. Nougat.

    Will it work on MetroPCS SM-J727T1 version? Which TWRP Version should I use?

      Both models have the same Exynos 7870 processor. As per the theory, It should work. But, We Didn’t test. I Don’t know. It may or may not work. Also, Most of the USA Devices are Bootloader locked. But Metro PCS is different. It has a flexible Bootloader. If it is your primary device, Don’t test this. If you are a developer, you know what to do.

      In some regions, this same model called “On 7 2016”. Both have the same processors. Currently, we don’t have TWRP for this. We will soon update.

    Hello Dear, I want to ask do we need to untick “Auto Reboot” because, as I have seen on other blogs that they propose to untick it to stop auto reboot, but as per you, you said to tick it, is it typing mistake or what?

    Thank you!

      When you have rooted mobile flash the firmware using Flashify app, or Else you will lose root access.
      If you have a regular mobile, you can try with OTA, Samsung SmartSwitch, and ODIN.

    Well, OTA not possible anymore as I have tried rooting it.. I installed TWRP versions 3.1 to 3.2.3 and can’t get past it. TWRP could not “find” sd card as well as the OTG USB flash drive… cannot install SuperSU as per your guide here….. soooo I am lost…
    OTA, when I tried today – it says, “the OS on your device has been modified in an unauthorized way….”
    and…… yes, it is the first time for me to root device. 🙁

    Hi!
    Can you please help me? I have SM-G610F, I’ve done all of the steps. My ODIN already says, ‘PASS!’. But when I’m trying to reboot in recovery mode, it says ‘No Command.’ And I’ve waited a while. After that, it automatically opens my android’s default recovery mode, not the TWRP recovery mode. Can you please help me??

    *by the way, sorry for the bad English 🙁

      You can use the Magisk method. But, TWRP is best to flash custom ROMs.
