Well mate. Nope CF-Root is reliable. It rooted my moto g on stock update 5.0 and the 5.0 script even worked for 5.0.1. So mate it is reliable go for it. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked!

Depends from device to device. My moto g needed to unlock bootloder in order to root and previous ones didn't needed it. Try this method.

Can I remove the towelroot app after I have rooted, or does it need to stay to keep the ST rooted. My antivirus says it should go. What do you think ?
You can remove it. But you might want to back-up the apk for future purpose.

So you've used root checker and says your device is rooted? If so I believe you do have root access the app should work regardless of having root or not, have you got superuser installed?
root checker says I don't have root..but my Barclays app nd pingit app both says they don't work on rooted phones nd unable to use them....
so I really don't no if I do have root or not???
yea I got supersu installed

Have you bought the phone from the store, or second hand? If it's from a store, i don't think it's rooted.

You can use root checker app, and I believe you do have root have you got busybox installed? Also if you go into your settings on superuser there's a option to install into /system if you do this it should sort out your problem
There is nothing in there mate at all

Nope, nothing for touchwiz yet, only for aosp or whatever that is.
Any advice to make any quadcore android(aosp) phone into lollipop? I got some local brand phone

Title says it all. I know the device is fairly new but maybe someone has a build out there?
Edit - not to be confused with ambient display.

I found rapture but it isn't being updated to latest sources because the dev lost his device.
