I am having issues rooting my S7 Slim. I can get root, but it goes away after a reboot.
I tried z4root and UniversalAndRoot with no success. Both give me a fail when I run them. So I tried to use SuperOnceClick to root the device, this just locked up.
So I was finally able to get temp root by running these commands:

adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push su-v2 /data/local/tmp
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
adb shell
$ cd /data/local/tmp
$ ./busybox chmod 755 psneuter
$ psneuter

adb remount
adb shell

# cd /data/local/tmp
# ./busybox mv su-v2 /system/xbin/su
# ./busybox chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
# ./busybox chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
# ./busybox cp /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
# ./busybox chown 0.2000 /system/bin/su

# ./busybox cp busybox /system/xbin
# ./busybox chmod 0755 /system/xbin/busybox
# ./busybox chown 0.2000 /system/xbin/busybox
# exit

adb install Superuser.apk
adb reboot

The files that I pushed over all came from the SuperOneClick.zip file.

Superuser installed ok and even updates without any issues, but when I reboot I lose root. Any ideas?

I am stuck and am not sure what to do from here.

Nevermind, apparently I'm a retard, I was trying to use Ubuntu to root my tablet. I switched over to the wife's Windows 7 PC and SuperOneClick worked just fine and I now have root.

Thanks for looking.
