Could someone help me root and add a stable custom ROM to my TMO GS7 (G930T)? I'm tired of all the extra crap. I can't afford to brick this phone. I have some root experience, but I'm by no means a pro. I have all the latest updates from TMO. Unfortunately, I couldn't stop them in time. I don't have anything in trade, but might be able to help out somehow. Last phone I rooted was a TMO GS4 with the help of a moderator friend. He helped me tremendously with root, Ron, and a few extras like sdmaid, simfix, etc. I can do via chat, IM, etc. There are a lot of posts and it's hard to figure out which one is legit for my device. Thanks!
Anyone willing to help?
package disabler on app store, or flash u-firm
A lot of it seems to evolve around using Odin to flash the phone with the right firmware. It's not clear but there does definately seem to be an issue with SM-G930T Model. Just bricked and then unbricked my phone last night. WHITE KNUCKLE RIDE BY THE WAY!
I haven't found a solution yet but if I will I'll link you in!

I been on the search on how to root my SCH-R930 Galaxy s 4g from Us Cellular called the Aviator... (Brand New... Only been out for a week.)
The thing is that USCC is CDMA but their 4g network must be GSM. I don't know if this is a hybrid of CDMA and GSM together or what. (<------ Don't know if that is relevant but tossed it in.) Cant find much on the phone yet....
Anyway my question is the steps to root and flash the same as the T-Mobile sgs4g?
I have tried several different ways and all have been unsuccessful and nothing seemed to work. All that I tried were Software based rooting programs. Super One Click was the most recent and failed.
Just need to know where to start and what forum would be closest to mine.
Here you go this is how rooted mine.

over on the site android forums look up aviator then the post all things root follow those directions thats how i did it make sure you get the software update for the phone from samsung site first. super one click works but you have to get the upgraded software from the samsung web site for the aviator.
Hello ladies and gents, has android 5.0 been cracked yet? I mean can you root a sprint gs5 that is running Android 5.0
I would like to rot my phone so I can install a program to my phone that requires root. I do not wish to change or flash new roms or anything. Just to root the phone for this software. Has 5.0 been cracked on the sprint gs5? If so can someone link me to the thread for the instructions and links for software? How successful is the root? I know rooting is at your own risk but sometimes it fails more then it succeeds and that feels a bit risky for me. I am on mobile so it is not easy for me to search all the threads. I did see the sticky about rooting this phone, but I do not remember saying what version of Android it was for. Thanks for all the help.
The rooting method has not changed. All you need is Odin and the superuser tar.

Root Sprint S5....Step-by-Step
Running a HTC M8 on 5.0.1 and I have searched but have been out of the rooting business since my S3. Can it be done? If so, can someone please direct me to the appropriate links? I started to follow the sticky and got to Sunshine and it said no-go. Would love a stock GPE Rom installed on my phone. Any help would be appreciated!

Unfortunately, the sunshine app is your best bet but you (and I) need to wait for it to be updated. There is another method, but it would require you to find someone with a java card. You can find more info about the java method in the forums. I thought about it, but i'm going to try and hold out for an updated sunshine app, hopefully it comes out before our next Verizon update so that any possible exploit is not blocked by verizon..
But until we get root, there are a few things you can do. There is the Google launcher or the Nova launcher, Adblockplus works on WiFi and there is also the Adblockplus browser for when you are not on WiFi, and the greenify app does have some limited functionality without root access.
If any of you guys are near PA I have a Java card and can do s-off

I drove seven hours (round trip) to get it done and it was well worth it. I would FedEx it to dottat in a heartbeat and just use a backup phone in the meantime. Who knows when sunshine will be updated.
Well, We are just waiting for them to get sunshine stable with our phones. Until then, Java card is the only way for those on lollipop

I don't want to miss represent sunshine. I'm referring g to the root exploit
In the exact same boat as the original poster...
The last phone I rooted & installed Cyanogenmod on was an S3 & I loved it. The battery became an issue & I moved on to the HCT One M8 from Verizon. I typically wait until the first year of warranty is up before rooting. Well, never again will I wait as all the exploits are patched & Im stuck w/ the stock ROM & I am really missing Cyanogenmod. I live in the Greensburg area of PA, but not sure about driving to York PA for the Java card, though that is extremely nice of the person who offered. I am subscribing to this thread; as I cant find any root methods & look at least several times a week.

I typically wait until I've had the phone 30-40 minutes before rooting and installing TWRP and a custom rom.
Personally, I'd drive to York if I lived where you do. Since I'm 2,250 miles away I'd send the phone. As always, YMMV.
@dottat, I'm in the Finger Lakes area in NY. Where in PA are you? I may have to come and see you!!
Edit: Any chance you have a card for the M9 too?
The card will work for all. Just give him a pm
So this is my first LG phone, my last phone was the nexus 6 (RIP :crying So this whole root process for the LG G5 seems a little confusing to me. There's just so many different versions, do's, and don't do's. I was wondering if anyone could point me towards the correct guide, and method.
I've attached a screenshot of my software info screen.
This is how I rooted my phone when I was in version 10j

Hey if you haven't figured it out yet, pm me and I can help you.
Thanks guys, I went away for vacation and forgot to check back. Needless to say, while I was away one of the kiddos dropped the phone and cracked it. Sadly, my replacement came with H83020c installed. I haven't checked any of the forums yet, but I'm out to see if we got a root for it yet

I'm a novice with this stuff although I do have some understanding as I've unlocked and rooted a few phones but I'm not understanding of the bootloader unlock is it for developer edition only, also I haven't found a root method post and I know this might sound stupid but are the note 4 910 roms compatible with 915 edge
Hi I too am a novice and this phone is giving me a headache soo many variants and yes from what I've read around the 910 ROMs are compatible just with no edge support. I am on tmo soooo spotty lte . Ive had temp root with king but no luck with recovery. I found https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ent/developer-edition-stock-deodexed-t3127896 but haven't flashed yet. If you happen to learn any thing maybe u cud pass along and if and when i flash above illl t yaknow if it blew up. All the years ive been self teaching ANDROID wishing for another to ask questions (no one i know even cares for tech no one knows what im talking about ever) u may b the first person I've ever reached out to to ?. Hope i was n e help at all
