after my horrible experience with Verizon, I still have about 10 days to go back to ATT.
see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/general/verizon-horrible-t2935510
Not sure what phones to pick on ATT, all the phones are a bit older, or huge or lower end.
There is Moto X, probably the closest thing to Droid Turbo.... with camera, battery, screen is all inferior
There is (will be) Nexus 6, but that thing is huge, and missing the cool Moto apps.
There is Galaxy S5, that due to replacement
There is Note 4, again huge and Samsung TouchWiz....
Looking for some input.
TouchWiz is not bad on the note4

Ok Yall we are moving to North Carolina, so ATT, Cricket, T mobile ,and Sprint are no longer a useable service which means my beloved Galaxy S5 rooted, unlocked running the Sickness or CM11 whichever I restore that week is no longer useable, so....we went to the only service that works in the area we are moving Version....they want $400 down so we went prepaid
I now have a Samsung SM-J100VVP, is there any way to root it on XDA? I have looked on the internet and for some reason just from past experience I only trust you guys on here.
that's probably because I have made several bricks before I first came here

Interesting because I am on straight talk, using AT&T service and when I went down to North Carolina I had 4G service nearly everywhere. I went to two smaller towns of Wilmington and Hampstead, I was also briefly in Jacksonville and the signal was solid. I can only assume that your moving to a different part of NC?
As far as the J1 I'm unsure if there's even a root method let alone a possibility of the bootloader to be unlocked. I used to have an S3 on VZW and I rooted and unlocked it before they locked it down for good

We're looking around the Plymouth area, Murfreesboro, Ahoskie, Rich Square, and Aulander, AT&T is what cricket runs on and as soon as we cross from Chesapeake into NC my phone (on cricket) and my wife's phone (straight talk) both dropped dead, while verzion runs smooth the whole time. The only reason I even want to root is yo run ad away

Oh ok, your coming into NC from the west then, I live in NYS and didn't have any issues coming south into NC. I understand the root part, you can try King root, that might work but I'm not going to guarantee it

Actually were coming in to NC from the north east, either NC168,17,or 13 from Va Beach. Never heard of King root before, it's it Odin install thing?

Nope it's an app. It may or may not work. Here's the thread, I don't see it listed but who knows it may just work

Its ok man I kinda like the J1 my S5 had CM11 on it and the android 5.02 seems to be almost exactly as I had the S5 set up except that everything is so damn light, the S5 is dark UI.
Hardest part of the s4 is gonna be buying the board, we also need 2 boards for two S5's and a screed digitizer and frame assembly for an S5, My oldest is gonna buy his own Verzion phone next time he gets paid, I'll be buying my youngest some his on payday and he can pay me back when he gets a job

Hello guys, if I unlock my current AT&T G3 and use say a Verizon service then does this mean I have have to use a Verizon Rom? Thanks.

You cannot use it on Verizon. Verizon is a CDMA carrier. The only way it will work on Verizon would be data / LTE only. No calls/sms. In the USA that phone will only work on AT&T/T-Mobile or any other GSM carrier.

That sucks :/. If your willing to sign a 2 year contract BestBuy has most of the new samsungs for $1 Also if your willing to add a line and keep it for at least 3 months you get $300 off if you trade in a phone. I recently got two G4s by adding lines ending up making $100 lol.
I love the G4. I cannot say about the V10. I don't like the upper screen personally I don't think it's useful. But the v10 is a great phone though.

Apple will capitulate to the FBI before SEC does this.
Wishful thinking but I'm not holding my breath on this one.
ROOT
I have a sneaky suspicion that the Verizon S7 & S7 Edge will end up just like the
ATT Note 5 and S6 Edge/Edge+ phones and will NEVER have root. LOL
I would strongly advice & suggest NOT to get rid of your current rooted phones at least not yet!!!
(unless you buy a different brand which can be rooted)
Have a great day!

And let's not forget the S6 active.
The bounty for root on that was up to $1k last I checked

SO DISappointed in Samsung!!!!
Samsung is just giving their customers what they want. The carriers are their customers, not us.

Right. The s6a bounty was insane.
Bounty 1550
Does this help for boot root?

What are the odds of the bootloader ever been on like to just seven you guys think please give you opinions

I'm not a wiz on the whole subject but I'll tell you this, I moved from an AT&T note 4 and AT&T service to t-mobile service with the s7 edge. The note 4 till this day, hasn't gotten the marshmallow update while almost all carriers have released it including tmobile. Also the bootloader is locked and also no root. I said to myself I was going to give samsung another chance on tmobile. If nothing happens, then we know where the future of future samsung products go as far as rooting.

For the update.. samsung did a bad job of keeping their products up to date. The mobile carrier cannot make their own marshmallow update for note 4, if samsung doesnt make it in the 1st place. I think they want ppl to buy their new products.. And as far rooting... i think is really hard now since they work with blackberry to make KNOX better...
