Galaxy S5 Good Lock Support - Verizon Galaxy S 5 General

Has anyone been successful in getting Good Lock to run on your device from the apk provided here(http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsun...ase/good-lock-24-0-10-android-apk-download/)? I have tried to run it but the device just reboots and uninstalls it...

I have it running on my work S5 on PD1 and then on PF4. It will only work on MM as far as I know.

I figured out if you are running mm and disable the fingerprint scanner it will work

TWRP and Xposed...

I've been trying to stay up to speed with all the information as this is my first Samsung. I'm rooted. Am I correct in thinking that twrp isn't available for us yet and I read that we can't run xposed on Samsung devices? YouTube ads are brutal! Thanks!
Yes, to the best of my knowledge you're correct on both points. I'm really missing Xposed coming from M8
Thanks.. Same here from an M7.

Not for lollipop yet but he is working on it
Like Soop said he's working on it but it sounds like he's a long way from having anything. Don't hold your breath

[Q] Flashfire?

Do you think there is any hope of using flashfire to flash custom rooms for vzw note pro 12.2?
I used flashfire on my fiancés rooted vzw note 3 last night to flash the jasmine rom they have available, so since the note 3 has a locked bootloader as well I wondered if we could expect the same capabilities if roms were developed? The thread on flashfire says it's been used on a plethora of samsung devices...

Did you roll back to 4.4.4 and root then use Flashfire to come back up to lollipop and keep root for your note 4?
Lollipop for the Verizon Note Pro hasn't released in the US yet, but you were abe to use Flashfire to maintain root and hop up to lollipop on your tablet as well?
Thanks for the reply! Happy to know flashfire is an option!
You don't need to roll back.Just rooted lollipop and kitkat is upgradeble and downgrade also.I tried both and did work as well.Flashfire has auto root option itself and during flash injects supersu.
In both my devices works as it suppose to do.Just like old MobilOdin did.

Who's your carrier for your devices? As far as I know there isn't a permanent root method for Verizon Note 4. The king root has gained temp root for vzw note 4 but it's lost upon reboot and there isn't a way to replace their su with chainfires su.
As for the note pro lte with vzw there isn't an official lollipop update out for Verizon here in the US and no dev roms to go up to lollipop so I'm curious how you e managed to do this for both devices?

All my devices are unbranded.No carrier.I never bought device in my life attached to any carrier contract.It is against my nature.
I suppose that explain why I don't have problems so far.

Ah well that explains it then. Thanks for replying though I think I'm gonna start doing the same thing, I want to buy the new nexus they are releasing this year straight from Google and then have it activated by Verizon so I can have the unlocked bootloader and such.
Thanks for the help!

yes you wont be able to use fingerprint scaner on LDU and also after update you wont be able to charge more than 70%
if you want to use full potential of you LDU refer to this thread and flash G920F rom on your phone:good::good:
Thank you Bro!

okay I've searched I swear for nougat root for AT&T no luck

Okay so just updated to nougat for AT&T have tried all the methods posted with no luck gets stuck on the s7 edge boot logo pretty much a soft brick causing me to have to reload the u software then upgrade to nougat again can anyone give me insight on how to root? I hate all this bloat, or would it be simpler to just use aroma installer?

AT&T always locks their bootloader why don't u just get an unlocked variant the g935u? It's the same phone except unlocked for all GSM and CDMA networks in the US

This is actually my first Android didn't know about all that lol till I started researching more on modifying the phone. So in other words there is no known working root ? No complaints I can wait for the systemless root just not a huge fan of the eng bootloader.
even if u get the 935u. The bootloader is locked, all USA s7 and s7 edges are bootloader locked.

Didn't know that I'll keep that in mind I'm glad I got the exynos version
God I wish I had the exynos version I actually had my eye on that superman Rom the found out about the locked boot loader as of right now and the sound of it we'll never have the privilege of it either. I mean we got the echoe Rom but it was laggy and abandoned which I dont blame them if it's that big of a pain. I like root to remove things I don't use to replace them with things I do plus love tweaking it to my liking have yet to use xposed which I know there are a few unofficial versions that I've read will work flashing through flashfire but gotta get root.

US GS7-s have locked bootloaders, which means we're unable to downgrade until bootloader keys are leaked or T-Mobile unlocks it for us, which probably will never happen.

I just downloaded the 6.0.1 image for g930T and flash it with ODIN and that's it, I'm on 6.0.1 again :d
Ya I have downgraded from 7.0 to 6.0.1 several times already with no problems. My issue is that Nougat rooted is very laggy so I been trying all sort of fixes like govtuner etc but it is still laggy
anyway, here is attached screenshot of how I downgrade quickly and easily on sm-g930t

I'm running on stock nougat and the phone is speedy, gets ok battery life and I'm really not missing root because I've found ways to make it do what I want. The only thing I miss is TB.
