I am trying to root my S6 with the model number: SM-G920R7. The full build number is G920R7WWU2AOF3. If someone could find me a way to root it that would be great! I do not care if I trip the Knox counter because I will not be getting a warranty nor using Samsung pay. If you need any more details just reply. Thanks for the help!

Could you please confirm 100% that it will work on the "SM-G920R7" specifically?

Just checked it.. it says
So if you want to root your AT&T or Verizon device, the time is now. And if you want to root without tripping KNOX, this is likely your one and only opportunity. If your device has received a firmware update at any point since early May 2015, this method may no longer work.
but it wont harm the device in any way, so he should try it.

Did you ever succeed using this ping pong method? I have a sm-g920r7 with 5.1.1 installed out of the box. I have not found a method yet that works on mine. Neither ping pong or Odin will do it. Errors out and says device not supported. Never been stuck in a boot loop, but never granted root access.
