How do i unlock the bootloader i i know im suppoed to check OEM Unlock from developer options but what do i do next?
 
Is this an Exynos international S7, or some US Snapdragon variant S7? Because knowing the exact variant of your S7 is very important. Suggest you post the full model number and baseband. Exynos devices are easy, Snapdragon variants I don't know at all.

I have the SM-G930T Tmobile variant s7 running Android 8.0.0 it tired cf auto root but nothing im tinkering to see if theirs an explout to bypasa the bootloader but nothing yet
 
So far i found aome signiture keys that can allow me to alter some of the files in the odin flashable files im working on modyfing them to flash via odin without root inatalled to be a GamerROM OS but i wanted to see if i need to unlock the bootlosder just in case
 
With Samsung devices that the bootloader can be unlocked, you would then install TWRP for your model number using Odin. Then the root solution of your choice or a custom rom in TWRP.
This does prevent several Samsung apps
like Samsung Pay from ever working again because Knox will be tripped. Best to check XDA for complete run down of what's available for your model number.
 
I tried using cf auto root and i seen a pist of xda about it but still if theirs a command using cmd i cound try seeing if an exploit us oresent to be able to users to be able to do this
