Sorry about cross posting. A mod can delete my other thread. I didn't realize there was a Q & A forum.
I'm just looking to see if there has been any development on rooting and flashing for this model.
From what I have read I cannot.
Just looking for some one to confirm that the bootloader is still blocking everything.
Carrier is Verizon
SM=P905V
Android 5.1.1
Stock tablet, never been hacked.
Thanks in advance. I'm needing to know this due to a dispute I am having with big V.
Anyone?????????

Forgive me for my ignorance in these matters.I am Thinking about purchasing a gs4 from freedompop.Supposedly the phone is locked and has proprietary software for freedompop.I know pc's I know phone hardware,but haven't done much modding.Supposedly you cannot use this phone on other networks the way it comes.Can one of these GS4's be unlocked and flashed with some new firmware to use on other networks?As far as I know it is the i9505 with the snapdragon cpu and it is a cdma phone.Thank You

Hello guys i'm new here and did look for my problem but didn't find much
i brought a galaxy S5 sprint G900P the guy that sold it to me told me it was a non-contract phone
i check the imei back then and it was clean even though i coudn't activate it.
still i used SSU to unlock the sim on 4.4.2
i wanted today to update to the 5.0 version i checked the imei again just by luck and i found it Blacklisted --
my question is if i update to 5.0 will i still use it or will it get blocked and will i be able to use the sim
i live outside the US.

I just saw an LG G4 (VS986) on ebay. I live in India. The carrier is verizon, the VS986 is an US model. It is written that hotspot won't work. Also there is mentioned that verizon logo will come up during booting. My queries are:
1) Why hotspot won't work? Will I be unable to access WiFi also?
2) Why will verizon logo come up during booting? Is it common or the phone is rooted?
3) Will I also face problems regarding upgrading the phone to marshmallow?
That's all... I know these are too many questions but please help....

Hello!
Forgive me if this is the wrong forum to be posting this question. If there is another place to post, please let me know!
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5. The bootloader is locked and I just don't have the time to mess with it. I would love to mail it to someone who could help unlock the bootloader and put on a ROM like Lineage OS. If anyone here would be able to help with this, let me know your price and how much time it would take to do this. The 6.X upgrade was performed so I've heard it might not be able to be downgraded to allow the bootloader to be unlocked. Really this is all out of my knowledge-base so I apologize if I'm not explaining everything correctly.
Either way I'd love help with this. If you are the US that'd be ideal as mailing internationally is no fun.
Thanks!
First post here, I apologize if this is the wrong place or if it's been covered before - I personally have not been able to find the answer;
Hey everyone I know this is a fairly old phone (the galaxy s6) however it's running Android 7.0 or Nougat. I have been searching XDA, but other than that I've just been finding really sketchy blogs that only half cover how to root/unlock the device. I was wondering if anyone could direct me in the correct path?
My main concern is - since the Phone is MetroPCS... will I have to unlock it before I can root it?
***Side Note:*** I could spend $20 on a code but would prefer not to as I've never had to do that.
Can I root it before I unlock it?
I ask because I found something on gsmhosting called "SM-G920T1 7.0 unlock done by great Octopus"
Which showed that the device had been rooted prior to unlock.
It's been a while since I rooted a phone so if anyone can supply a step-by-step for this exact model, I would greatly appreciate it.
