Hey guys. So i have updated my 915G, to the latest firmware, can i still root it?
Or do i have to downgrade? My version shows NK4.
Should i still root or will i get stuck trying to root?
Any best ways to root the 915G.
Help is appreciated. Thank you
Can you check language settings for this model, is there Turkish language. If yes can you take and share screen shot.
Nope not showing turkish.. maybe u can download it?
Still waiting for mine to arrive but couldn't you install new recovery and flash latest super su to get root?
I have the N915G and this method worked fine for me

when the device is rooted do I still get the over the air updates ?
mine isn't rooted yet because I usually wait a couple of weeks to see if there is no hardware problem (warranty)
and i wait for the Lollipop update, which should arrive in February, I hope...

Hello everyone, i am new to xda and need help with my rooted samsung galaxy s4 i9500 running android 4.4.2 with build number I9500XXUFNG1 and phone status says CUSTOM, i live in India
i rooted my s4 using chainfire auto root a few months back and also installed cwm, both using odin.. and since then i have flashed aicp 4.4.4 rom and then got back to the stock rom using the backup i created by cwm beofre flashing the rom
last night i got an ota update of 112mb saying it'll update knox from v1.0 to 2.0 and my phone auto downloaded it although i havent installed it yet
so my question is, should i update my phone, let the update install, would it do any harm knowing it is rooted ? would i brick my phone if i install the update ? would i lose root access if i update ? what is the way out ? should i un root my phone and then install the update and then re root again ? since my phone is rooted, it shouldnt receive ota update than why have i received one ? what are my options ? plz help me out..any kinda help will be appreciated...! thanks a mil..!
as the title says i recently updated to 5.1.1 and cant reroot, ive tried getting super su beta etc one click roots etc towel root and stump root and nothing seems to want to root it meaning im stuck rootless, anyone in the same boat ?
Yep Same for me...
hopefully someone finds another hole soon
Try to Downgrade to 5.0.1 then root it
. . . really... its the gflex 2 why would you want to stay on 5.0.1 im not going to downgrade to an inferior version to root it theres no way to keep the root and upgrade cause vodafone patched the hole, im hoping someone can find another exploit

Hello,
I have searched all of over the internet for my phones root with no success whatsoever.
- Kingroot does work on the phone but when I reboot my phone it looks up my bootloader and tells me that I have flashed an unauthorised rom and that I should contact cricket. I then had to flash the stock rom with kies.
- I have tried to flash all sorts of recoveries including TWRP and CWM recoveries. It just gives me a fail and on my phone it says "Secure Check Fail: Recovery".
Please help make a root for my phone.
Thank you in advance:fingers-crossed:

If I were you I would not update because there are no ways to root the phone, at least, I have not found anyway. And the update is through kies 3. But if kies does not give you the update then that is great for all of us on this form. http://teamcspire.com/index.php?/to...s-for-return-to-stock-tarmd5-for-use-in-odin/
Go to this website and please extract the software from kies 3 so that all of us can use it to downgrade from 5.1.1 to 4.4.4. if that's the situation. Please reply if you run into any trouble because I have already done this for the firmware 5.1.1. and I know how to do it.
Thanks in advance
Ohhh thanks, i want to update my Grand Prime yo lollipop, then I try to get root

Trust me, nothing works. I have literally scanned the whole internet.
So basically I never wanted to update my phone but I accidentally pressed Install Now when I was trying to open the messaging app. Now I can't root it anymore or downgrade it. Worst mistake ever for my phone :crying:
So my phone found a new update, but I don't want to update it because I want to look for a updated ROOTED rom that is later than OG7. If anyone has a odin flashable / zip flashable, PLEASE message me. I have a friend that works with android roms, he said that its something to do with the bootloader and it has to be rewritten by hand to make it rootable because of verizons bootloader, and to unlock the bootloader. PingPongRoot doesn't work anymore after the 5.1.1 update. I really hate this update. it slowed my phone down a lot. **** you verizon :crying::crying::crying:
Anyways I need a rooted rom to flash on my phone to make my phone think its signed by Samsung or Verizon and it's a new update. Please help me root my phone. I really got nothing to root it now ;-;

Have you tried updating to Marshmallow? I'm on CleanROM 1.5 android 5.0.2 OE2, and have been curious of the new android version, but at the same time do not want to lose root. Let me know if Marshmallow is worth losing root. Only advantage I see to root at this point is not having all that damn bloatware I really hate and cannot remove without root. Thanks.

I rather not update it unless
1: A root method is available
2: A rooted rom for Marshmallow is available
Just saying. upgrading to 5.1.1 unintentially (mainly because i was directly going to the messaging app but accidentally pressed install now) made me loose my root access. That's why I'm seeing if there is a rooted rom for that rom or a root method for that room.

From what I understand, it seems verizon is never going to allow it. Just look at Note 4 from verizon, it came out in 2014 and still no sign there will ever be root available for that one either. I'm even considering moving to tmo since there is root on their devices. Good luck.

Thanks for the info :victory:

I want to root my note edge SM-N915G (which i recently updated to marshmallow (officially - using system auto update)) using CF auto root. I have been reading tutorials on the internet on how to use it. It says to download the right Files first from the autoroot.chainfire.eu site.
but the one for the SM-N915G (android 6.0.1) has a build number of MMB29M.N915GXXS1DPH3 while the one on my phone is MMB29M.N915GXXU1DPG6. is that ok?
they also have a warning about this:
UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS
If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !
is it safe for me to root my phone, or i have to fulfill some prerequisites first?? thanks
I got the same model as well, did you manage to find the right files? Really want to try viper 4 Android

I think the method on the link you provided will work (cant try it though because my phone is currently bricked)
The one that bricked my phone is when i use the cf auto root using the files on there site .. i think the problem is about locked bootloader on android m .. not sure though. . I will definitely try the method in the link you provided after my phone is fixed
the cf auto root is for MM ? hard or soft brick ?
