Root on .93
Install dual recovery
Flash a pre-rooted lollipop zip
That's it. If you flash another rom via flashtool after rooting you will lose root

Thanks bro, appreciate the help

Mate you can't flash any custom kernel
If you have locked bl
Unlock your bl if you want that
However rooting can be done without unlocking bl
Just search for your device specific steps to be followed for rooting!
Good luck
And cwm installation needs root
Btw real ics works for locked bl too
So just root
Install cwm
And flash the Rom via cwm

Needing some help

Hi everyone! I'm new here, I have a c2104 divice, I want to root it and install a custom recovery and a custom rom, my divice tells me that is blocked bootloader, but I have read that you can install cwm in a blocked bootloader is that true? I just need to root and install cwm to install any custom rom? Thanks for helping and sorry for bothering you!

Latest Twrp and latest stable SuperSU( I believe 2.46). Very simple...
You install TWRP with ODIN from PC and SuperSU from TWRP so have it on your sd card or internal memory.
Where to download twrp ?

Should i use cwm or twrp ?
Sent from my SM-N915G using XDA Free mobile app
See the sticky posts for this forum. It is for tmobile but the same process works for 915G.
Be sure to download the twrp and cf autoroot versions for your device. The links are in the sticky.
Use TWRP first to root. You can go to CWM later.
