I am having trouble rooting my AT&T samsung galaxy s4 i337. I have tried quite a few methods and all fail.
Android version 4.4.2
MDF v1.0 release 2
Is the security mdf causing the problems?
I have tried towelroot, kingoroot, motochopper, casual. none work fails with each one.
Im not an expert by any means but i have succefully rooted my S3 in the past. can someone point me in the right direction or let me know whats wrong?
Thanks.

Have you tried saferoot or crashroot? I'm not sure if they will work either, unfortunately.

Actually, I see you've started a thread already on this?
XDA Assist is to help point the way for people, show them where to find help. This is not a place for tech support.
I checked your post history, you bricked a galaxy tab 2, 7"? Or a phone as stated in this thread?
Here is your other thread.....

Tho you posted your thread in the general area of the forum. May I suggest you post your issue in the section for your particular device?

Good luck!
I own this device, can someone point me in the direction, and where I must go to add CyanogenMod
Hi there!
If that's the Galaxy Tab 4 you are referring to, here is the place to ask questions about that device...

Keep in mind that is a very new device. Development will often take some time on new devices.
Also, always list your model number when asking anything... There are many different models for the tab 4.
And only flash files made for your model.
As well, I'm not sure if it works on your model, but other tab 4's have rooted with towel root..... See this thread,
Samsung Galaxy Tab 4Galaxy Tab 4 General[ROOT] [Towelroot] Tab 4 - 8.0 and 10.0
You can ask questions about towelroot in that thread also.
Hi to all
I have a Samsung galaxy s6102 and some weeks ego I entered a code (*#*#2663#*#*) which supposed to update touch firmware but it failed and touch screen never worked again.
I couldn't repair my phone even by flashing ROM an kernal. I tried method mentioned in this topic but I discovered that screencast does not work on my phone,hence I used ADB shell commands to enter the code (*#*#2663#*#*).
unfortunately just after entering the code this error message pops up: "The application com.sec.android.app.lcdtest (process com.sec.android.app.lcdtest) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
I retried with different ROMs and got the same error.
I am wondering how should I erase touch firmware and flash new one and why flashing ROM and kernel do not replace this firmware?
It would be very appreciated if anyone suggest another solution for my case.
Hi,
You'd be best served asking for help in your device section... This section covers your device model as well, just specify your model when asking for help and only flash files made for your specific model number, no other kinds...
> Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 > Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!

Also, that link you posted is for another device. Again, only follow instructions and flash files made for your device. No other devices. Unless a reputable source suggests you can. ?
Thanks

Hi Everyone,
I recently got korean Samsung Galaxy S4 SHV E330K and I was wondering to change to the international version of S4 because i want to flash CyanogenMod in it. Since CyanogenMod has ROM only for International version, i think I'll have to install international version of S4 then only flash CyanogenMod 11.
I had Korean Samsung galaxy s2 before and i had changed it to international and faced some problems which was eventually solved. But i don't know about S4 and i don't wanna just step right into it and flash and maybe get my phone bricked.
So can anyone help me?
Please!
I wanna know what can be the consequences or problems if I flash to international version and if there are consequences, how do i solve it?
Thank you!
Any help is great!

Take a moment and read this:
> General discussion > About xda-developers.com > Want To Post In Development?
Besides that, the thread I linked you to is the General section thread and not a development one. So, you should be able to post there.
Please keep in mind that this isn't a support forum and we're here only to guide you to the correct section/forum in which you should ask your question!
Thank you!
Thank you. Thread Closed!
SORRY! But I'm Disabled & only understand about 1/100th of what has been posted regarding this DUMB GD PHONE!
I don't own a computer & I have very little patience with Computer Syntax & general Computer Mum-Bo-Gum-Bo BS;!
I tried Towelroot v3 & it says it's not supported. I used Root Checker Basic & it says it's not properly rooted. I tried using Titanium Backup & it says could not acquire root privileges. Please verify that your ROM is rooted, and try again
Says attempt was made using the "/system/xbin/su" command. ??? Whatever the F#%K does that mean???
My overall goal is 2 jailbreak this phone & get rid of 100s of useless apps & irritating pop-ups every 2 minutes. I'd like
the overall FREEDOM of being able to do what I want to do without being extorted by AT&T or any other monopolistic corporate Giant!!!
I probably should have posted this under the "Dumb Questions" Section!
HELP, HELP, & HELP! Can Someone PLEASE ADVISE!!!
Hi,
Here would be a good place to ask for help with that device...
> Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506 > Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S4 | Ask any question | Noob friendly
I should advise you, this stuff does take a lot of work at times, lots of reading and learning, more reading, Troubleshooting issues... And... More reading. ?
You may want to reconsider if this sounds unappealing. Without all the reading, things can go wrong quickly, trying to do things without some knowledge up front.
Good luck, hope you get it worked out!

Oh, and some things just aren't going to be possible without access to a computer unfortunately.
