Hello! Is there a root for SM-915S lollipop verzion? If there is pleas provide me a link. THANKS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/general/info-galaxy-note-edge-sm-n915-t2945942
check the section where he says "method used for my n915s" as this person also has the sprint version. this method should work for you as well. if not then you should be able to extract your recovery.img and sent it to chanfire who will maybe possible update his autoroot for the latest firmwares.
Can some one tell me that how to Root Galaxy s6 . I have uploded pic about my phone details.
Search the General forum for the root guide. Everything you need to know is in there.

hey bro please check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_uHPPIEEKU i hope you would your solution.
Hi @sonu42197
I assume that after rooting, you want to install a custom kernel anyways.
With this Kernel you have auto-root included for almost every variant, including your I version
Hope this helps!

I tried this kernel but i got stuck in a bootloop. Plz someone help.
My question is simple, I was researching a lot, in here and google, and I find out that several persons says that this specific model can be rooted tripping knox.
we just need to root this phone, we don't care about warranty or anything, is there a way to rooted?
baseband version is
G920VVRU4BOK7
5.1.1
I saw somebody says there is a way to return to an old android version modifying the tar file.
as I said, we just need the phone rooted, we don't care about warranty or knox.
Thanks everybody for helping us.
There's no way with your build number the last build that could be rooted was oe2.
there is no an option? always is an option. somebody know it

Sorry to bring up an old thread...
I've recently seen that SRSRoot might do the trick... Has this been verified?

I noticed that too. I was wondering if anyone had tried it yet as I have a Verizon s6 Edge and saw there was a root for my device as well. Has anyone given it a try on the regular S6?

I tried srsroot before it says that it's rooted but is not.
Thanks for the advise.
SRS root just posted support for BOG9 on their twitter account. I'm afraid to try, is someone willing to take the risk and reply their result?
Want to ro
I haven been waiting to root because I want to recover deleted videos. Dr Fone doesn't work on my phone because it is not rooted. Please share the link
I tried, but, as soon as I download the file my antivirus detected 5 kinds of different viruses, so I know understand why you are afraid.
Thanks for the advice.

literally type that model number into Google and add the word "root".
Here's one result:

http://www.teamandroid.com/2017/07/25/root-xxu1aqg5-android-70-galaxy-s8-plus-g955f-nougat-firmware/
but there's plenty more here on XDA.
You have to wait for TWRP to be updated to support the AQG5 bootloader, or install any of the AQG5 custom roms found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/samsung-galaxy-s8--s8-cross-device-development while using the AQF7 bootloader.

Why does he have to wait to root? The link I posted clearly roots his phone. It was posted two days ago. Here it is again since you didn't read it the first time.

Are you saying this is not valid?
Plus if he's got an Exynos S8+, doesn't the S8+ TWRP already work on his phone? IF he also wants TWRP and not just root, he says. I'm not aware of any restrictions on TWRP for S8 Plus as long as he has Exynos, which he does. Yes, he's posting in the wrong forum (S8 instead of S8+), but other than that, please educate me where I'm wrong.

Besides the answers I posted for you above to root and to also install TWRP if you want, you should post over in the correct forum
Samsung Galaxy S8+
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+
You have a Galaxy S8 Plus, not a Galaxy S8. That forum is dedicated to same device you have, and more people will be there to help you even more. But the two links I posted should help you root your S8+ and/or you can install TWRP and root. With TWRP you can also install custom ROMs.
No. That link is not valid. As of today there's no compatible TWRP with new bootloader.
"I am aware of compatibility issues related to newer bootloader.
New version of TWRP will be released soon with support to newer BLs." posted two days ago by @jesec. Are you saying that Jesec's post is not valid?

What about the Galaxy S8+ root link SPECIFICALLY FOR HIS MODEL I posted, which was posted online just two days ago?
It has nothing to do with TWRP. THAT is the part I was asking was valid. Seems you can't read?
But thank you for the updated information on TWRP.
Can you please change your title from "Root S8+ G955FXXU1AQG5" to "How To Root S8+ G955FXXU1AQG5?" this thread got me thinking there was a way to root already. I don't want others being misleaded as well.

The CF auto root for the G955F is based on NRD90M.G955FXXU1AQDG check https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ for reference. It will work for AQF7 and below but not AQG5.

Hmmm...it specifically has that AQG5 in the title. And it was posted just two days ago. Very strange if it doesn't work.

Those guides are usually just copy & paste of previous guides with updated version names and numbers. I wouldn't trust those sites, that's what we have XDA for, and if you look at the Question and Answers section you will find numerous threads of people having softbricked their device because of trying to root the AQG5 firmware. Custom firmware is the way to go right now and there are plenty of working rooted AQG5 custom roms here on XDA.
Anyway, you can't root with magisk on AQG5.

That's true you can't get Magisk by doing the CF auto root. But if you use a custom rom then you can have AQG5 and Magisk, you just have to stay on the AQF7 bootloader.

If I'm on AQG5 & want to root, can I just flash the AQF7 Bootloader & keep the rest AQG5?

No that won't work. What you need to do is to use the TWRP update that can be found by joining the Telegram group found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...pment/recovery-twrp-galaxy-s8-exynos-t3595102
If you use the regular update you need to flash the AQF7 bootloader - boot into TWRP - flash the TWRP update - flash AQG5 bootloader with Odin. Then you are free to flash Magisk or SuperSU.
Yeah the method posted (http://www.teamandroid.com/2017/07/25/root-xxu1aqg5-android-70-galaxy-s8-plus-g955f-nougat-firmware/) does not work. Plus there's that point that says "remove battery." Why and how would you remove the battery on a G955F? I like to root and just keep it as stock as possible but this method does not work.
Also when I posted a comment on this site it got removed.
"This method failed. OEM unlock on, USB Debugging on, drivers installed. In download mode the COM does not turn yellow. When I initiate this it fails. And why would I want to remove the battery? I don't have those kinda tools to do it, you gotta be kidding."
Finally I rooted My device Sucessfully....
