Hello!
I have bought a new Samsung Galaxy C7 in China where Google services are unavailable. But I have read that it is actually possible to get to use Google Store which I really would like, if you root your phone and download the gapps. I do not really know about the rules in China, but I assume that I would lose my warranty if I tried to root or change its software.
I looked up on how to root it, but I am not sure about it since I found some ways that are new to me from Odin that I used to root my Galaxy S3 with (in Europe).
To sum up what kind of answers I am looking for:
1. Can I safely root Galaxy C7 and just in case unroot it back?
2. Can I safely install "European" based software on it to use Google store and services in China and can I safely reinstall the original chinese software if something goes wrong?
3. Maybe there is some other way on getting the Google Store working without rooting? I have read it works for some people on different models but for me the application either stops working or displays "server error".
I am sharing a picture uploaded on imgur from the settings of the phone. I hope you will find all of the relative information there.

Thank you in advance for the help!
