The CF-Auto-Root brings an automatic rooting method to the Samsung Galaxy A7 smartphone just by flashing a file the same way you would flash a stock ROM with the Odin flashing tool. Root is enabled by the SuperSU app which is installed with the help from a modified recovery and a modified cache partition. These two things assist the CF-Auto-Root installation and efficiently enable the SuperSU app so it will grant rooting rights to the apps that request it.
