[Completed] my galaxy s4 is rooted but also not rooted - XDA Assist

2 years ago I buy my galaxy s4 unlocked version from amazon.com. When I came back to Turkey I registered the Cellphones imei. After that I rooted my galaxy s4. I watch lots of tutorials and most of it did not work out. At the last try I was able to root my device. After a year my uncle bought me a gear 2 neo which needed a higher version of android. So i plug my galaxy s4 and updated trough kiosk. The result was my galaxy s4 was mys galaxy s4 lost its root acsess was gone and system was updated. Also most of the apps first run and then give a error. For example i downloaded can knockdown 3. First it worked fine then it stopped working. One of my friend suggested I need to downlad a rom and suggested cyanogenmod. I tried one button installer but it said the device is not supperted for this installer. But my phone is listed in the supported devices(GTI9500). Please help me. My cellphone is slowly dying. Also last thing. They say making a change on the phone sometimes deletes the imei registiration.

Thank you for using XDA assist. Any time you update you're firmware you'll lose root. So that's normal. To root it again see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292615&page=50 If you still have problems you can ask here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192886 And aslo see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4

[Q] HELP(root) Sprint galaxy note 3 4.4.4

Hello awesome people of the rooting community, I've been searching like crazy(with no luck) to find a way to get my beautiful note 3 back to root access ever since i had to buy a new one when my old one fell apart.
i figured i turn to these ever so helpful forums, to be specific its a Sprint Galaxy Note 3 running 4.4.4 NK4. The reason that's underlined is because i have yet to find a way to root the November NK4 update on the forums, YouTube, cellphone stores i know of....etc..
is it even possible? if someone can help me restore my note 3 back to its former glory it would be much appreciated cause I'm out of options and made an account just to post to these forums.
i have had some experince rooting phones(using odin, and cf auto root) but this is a new ballpark for me.:crying:

[Completed] How can I update my galaxy s4 I337?

I have a samsung galaxy s4 I337. I have tried the over the air update several times but it always stops at 27 percent and restarts my phone. Ive wiped all cache, factory reset my phone and still nothing. It is stuck on android 4.4.2 and I would like to update it to lolipop. I know that at&t has released lollipop to their samsung galaxy s4s, but I cant even get passed 4.4.2. I am decent with phones but know nothing about flashing. Can someone please give me a very detailed, step by step process on how to get lollipop on my phone? Also, is it possible to do it and not lose data? I have my things backed up but wanna make sure.
Thank you.

[Completed] I need help getting root access on my Galaxy S4 (SM-S975L)

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 SM-S975L from Walmart and used towelroot. It worked but only temporally. Then my phone messed up and I took it back to Walmart to replace it. I got the same exact phone again but towelroot says that it doesn't currently support my device. I've tried everything out there and was just wondering if anyone could/would help. Thanks

Unfortunately, for your device model, the only root option I find is towelroot.
However, please post your question here:

[Completed] My Samsung Galaxy Note 4 service through Tmobile failed system update and now frozen.

My Note 4 told me to do a system update, so, I did, and after about an hour of my phone flashing on and off on and off, I took it to the nearest Tmobile store and was told that, there was nothing they could do for me except sell me another phone, which I was forced to buy. So, I now have a phone I used to love, and cant use. The guy at Tmobile said that someone tried to root my phone but was unsuccessful, and only rooted it part of the way. So, now it is stuck in this half rooted mode. Is there anything I can do to recover my favorite phone? Plz help....

Magisk is a very popular rooting app.
You should just need to flash the stock boot.img to unroot.
