If you are interested in bringing root access to your Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge you are welcomed to follow the steps written on this post. But as always I will also urge you to read the several points from preconditions below.

Preconditions.

• Enable Unknown Sources from your device, open Settings -> Security -> check on box beside Unknown Sources.
• Backup all your data before proceeding, well this is recommended, do it guys.
• A computer with a USB cable.
• PingPongRoot root will not trip KNOX warranty bit of your phone because it doesn't use Odin for flashing purpose. However it will leave SU files on system partitions.
• Proceed to the instructions and all the risks which happens after or during the process are yours to take.
