T-Mobile Note Edge 5.1.1 OTA update - Can you root? - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone successfully rooted the T-Mobile 5.1.1 OTA update? When I see things like "You can not downgrade from 5.1.1" I get nervous that T-Mobile may be jumping on the signed bootloader bandwagon like AT&T....so I keep postponing it.

Latest from Dec is cok2, and rootable.

About OTA updates now that root has been released.

Hey all,
I immediately blocked any OTA updates since I got my G4 in anticipation for root.
I have three questions
Do the AT&T OTA updates have that anti-rollback feature? I didn't see it confirmed in the thread regarding the anti-rollback but I'm not sure if the info is current.
Is the latest OTA for AT&T the 10g version? Should I enable OTA on my LG G4 now to get it prior to rooting?
Thanks.
So far as i know..no anti-rollback features..
As stated of some members here, latest ota updates doesn't affect rooting...for now

10g is the latest as of yesterday (before I rooted and blocked OTA). If you absolutely can't wait for root, then unfreeze the update apps and get the 10g OTA. If you're on 10e, there's a strong likelihood that you will softbrick your phone if you try to flash the rooted system.img (at least a couple people already did). If you can wait a couple of weeks, just hang tight and wait for codefire to release their one-click unroot since we still don't know about rolling back the bootloader or future unlockability of the 10g bootloader.
I'm on 10g and rooted. I have no intention of running a non stock rom on this device, so blocking updated with Tit back up now, removing bloat and coasting with what I've Got till we find out about a method for custom recoverys yet.
Could someone link me to the thread on how to disable the OTA function? I remember seeing it, but can't find it.

Update yesterday

Does anybody know what the update was about yesterday? I don't seem to notice anything different...was to fix that leak?
Sent From My Galaxy S6 Edge+
Wonder if it was to fix the stagefright vulnerability? I downloaded 3 apps to check for that 2 said I wasn't vulnerable and the 3rd said I still was lol so I'm not sure if I am still or not.

Hello everyone,
I'm new to this so please forgive my ignorance.
I've been looking everywhere for a root solution for my Gal S6 Edge + (ATT) and haven't even found people complaining they cant find anything for my build.
I'm trying to find a compatible root that wont disable or trip KNOX or brick my phone due to ATT iron grip.
Can anyone point me in the right direction; I've been to all the normal places one would look.
Is it so that there isn't a root solution out yet?
I'm on
5.1.1
Kernal Verion 3.10.61-5554916 / Sun Aug 30
Build: LMY47X
Baseband: G928AuCU1A0H5
KNOX 2.5
I can't be the only one with this phone who wants to root; I just want verification that there isn't anything out yet.
I can't stand the ATT apps that auto update even when I tell them not too, I want control of my OWN phone I paid in full for.
Thanks again

There is no root available for our G928A (S6 Edge+) device. With the new update patching the Stagefright exploit, I highly doubt that there will be root for Edge+ on AT&T. Furthermore, if you can't find root chances are that there is no root. You're not the only one that wants root, we all want root for our devices. You can either wait for a solution to come about, deal without root, and/or return the phone and get a phone that has root access.
Thank you for the clarification.
I'll have to wait and keep my fingers crossed.
It's great to buy your own devices and still be controlled by your carrier isn't it..

There won't be root for that device. Sell it before you miss the big boat on pricing and get the international version that has root.

I have SM-G920V G920VVRS4CQA3 v6.0.1 and want to prevent v7 OTA upgrade. Can I down grade with root to 5.1, or better yet, root with same v6.0.1, to be able to run a program that won't run on Android v7 working? If yes, can you post how you achieved it? Is there a risk in tripping the KNOX? Thx, tm

How to update to Oreo?

Hello!
I want to try the project treble so i need to update my phone to oreo but i don't know how to do. I don't know so much information about rom flashing. I tried to do it myself with a guide on internet but it didn't worked. I have unlocked bootloader with twrp and rooted B182 frimware. I used the guide on romprovider.com and tried the both methods. HWOTA stuck on press enter to continue and second method didnt work because i live in Turkey.
I have MHA-L29C432B182
Can anyone please explain how to do it properly? Like i said i dont know much.
Thank you.

Might be best, to WAIT until it comes to you in the official channel, since you don't know much.
No offense, but you can brick your phone, if you don't know what you are doing.

Rooting

Hi everyone!
I recently got my hands on a s8+ (G955f) and i'm trying to root it buy i'm really lost.
I did try to root it one time, twrp+no verity+magisk while on Oreo, then i installed magisk manager and both things seemed ok (at least to my knowledge) but the second i take my eyes off the phone, "only official released binaries...".
After that i installed Pie stock firmware since i couldn't use Oreo.
I'd like to try again but theres a lot of info (new and out of date) and i don't even know whats good and what isn't.
TL;DR: Want to root the phone but i don't know what to do, can someone kindly point me out on what to do/share me a link?
Thank you.

I did look at that but some latest comments saying they got some errors made me wait and ask here, before doing it wrong again but maybe i should just try it.
Anyways, thank you!
