Hey I was wondering if anyone can link me to a super simple guide on how to root my Samsung Galaxy S6, I don't care if I trip Knox or not, I just don't want to lose all my files, thanks .
I'm on 5.1.1
My Carrier is AT&T
My Version is G920A
My Kernel is from 9/19/15
I'm looking for the same thing... or any solution to help using Titanium Backup or something similar.
I've just bought a s6 (coming from a Note 2) and all my apps are saved with Titanium backup
From my experience, DON'T root your 5.1.1. If it was 5.0.2, you could do it easily with CF-autoroot. There are some unofficial root method and a root called "pingpong" root. Try search for that. I rooted my 5.1.1 and it have been bricked for almost a week now. It can't be fixed.

I recently bought this phone as Verizon no contract phone. I liked the fact I could get a 128 gb microsd and I figured it would be pretty easy to root. Boy was I wrong. I have tried towelroot, kingo root,super root and I am currently trying Root Genius. I f I had known it would be this hard to root I would have bought another phone.
Hi there,
I found a similar question here: How to root Galaxy J1?! by MiHawkBeast.
Some suggestions and a rooting "guide" can be found there.
I know that TowelRoot will only work on some devices with older firmware/kernel versions.
And here is another thread about rooting your device: [Q] How Do I root Samsung Galaxy SM-J100H by TomCabloGaming.
Good luck

Since your still on 5.0.2 pingpong root is the safest method.

Hello everyone,
First off, I apologize if I made a duplicate thread and if this topic is covered elsewhere could anyone pass on a link? Thank you.
I was wondering if there is a method for rooting the MetroPcs Galaxy s5 sm-g900t1 running lollipop 5.1.1 yet? I recently updated from Kitkat and lost root when I flashed the update. I tried Chainfire's cf-auto root method to no avail. Just wondering if anybody has developed or released a root method yet, and if not, is one in the works? Thanks in advance for any help.
I want to root my samsung galaxy s6 non-edge - g920f.
The problem is, I found a video where you download the twrp from google drive, I couldn't download that file since too many users had already downloaded it.
I then searched for a one-click root, which failed since the ones I found don't support 6.0.1 or are only for the edge.
Would someone mind helping me? Thanks soo much in advance everyone.
this might help
I just recently rooted my gs6 running 6.0.1 by cf-autoroot. Just type cf-autoroot android 6.0.1 and it should pop up . if it doesnt then hit me up i will send you the download link. its quite easy so you shouldnt have any problems.

you ever heard of the search option on this site? http://forum.xda-developers.com/search/forum/5124?query=root
