I have been looking since the beginning of the year to find a way to root the Samsung ATT go phone( SM-J320A) and have found no possible way as of 11/05/16. Can anyone help?

Check in the AT&T J320 section of XDA Forums (but don't hold your breath - Samsung welds AT&T [and Verizon] phones tighter than Fort Knox, and it takes time for someone to figure out a way to root a particular phone/ROM combination).

^ This works!

I successfully rooted my Galaxy Express Prime (AT&T GoPhone, Marshmallow 6.01) using the file attached in the video and Odin v3.11.

Odin v3.11: https://odindownload.com/download/Odin3_v3.11.1.zip

1.) Turn your phone off
2.) Hold down Vol - / Home / PWR to boot into Download Mode
3.) Sync phone with PC (make sure Windows recognizes it in DL mode or Odin won't recognize it)
4.) Extract .zip file to destination of your choice
5.) Open Odin, click AP, target /bin/sm-j320a_Engroot_601PJ2
6.) From Odin, Hit the start button. It should only take 4-5 seconds to flash your phone and reboot

7.) After your phone restarts - Settings -> Enable ADB, USB debugging, OEM Unlock (not sure if it did anything)
8.) Run the root.bat file

If all goes well, congrats. You now have a rooted SM-J320A

It worked for me and it should work for you too! Good luck.
