Hey everyone,
I've been wanting to root my S5 for a while but have been unable to find a way to do so since towel root. There have been no new articles published since 2014 regarding rooting my device, and these are only for kernel version prior to June 2014.
I am running on 4.4.2 with a kernel version of Jul 22.
Is there a root available for my phone? I have been searching everywhere with no luck.
Thanks!

I was wondering if it matters about the kernal version when rooting a galaxy s3. My version is 3.0.8-743127. Also on the box their was an updated sticker. I'm new to rooting. Also what is the best safest method. Thanks for all the help.

OK guys... I ran X-ray on my Note 3 (AT&T) with X-Note12 4.4.2.
It could not determine if the zimperlich exploit was patched. Now... Since I am rooted, I had 2 others test their devices with the official AT&T Note 3 4.4.2 OTA update. The results were the same.
Now since root is not available for this version yet, I am looking for someone to help with possibly building an exploit using zimperlich.
Something tells me that patch got broken.

How
Once I unlocked the bootloader, I basically followed the steps in the post for an unlocked version .

I recently updated my Verizon galaxy s6 edge which WAS rooted, but the update un-rooted it. I thought it was no big deal, until pingpongroot told me that it did not support my device software. Please help! [emoji22]

Well if u update the firmware it overwrites your root. And obe have to deal with devs finding new exploits to root new fw
I fixed it by downgrading the firmware

I want to upgrade my wife's phone to marshmallow. Her 915F is official but rooted with TWRP.
I want to be sure that I will be able to roll back in case won't like it.
Is it possible?
Besides security updates, is there a good reason to update it ?
