Hello,before i talk about my problem. Let me narrate my small story. Im 14 and i have a younger brother. Whenever My Dad gets me a new phone,my brother gets my old phone. So my dad was about to give me a samsung s6 .So i had to give my Rooted samsung galaxy s4 GT-19506 to my brother.I had rooted it in order to be able to get freedom and gamekiller for the gems and coins in games
So i Went to the super SU thing and pressed the complete unroot thingy and after that,i performed a factory reset to my S4.then after i did so,i tried logging in my google account but it refused saying that it couldnt establish a connection with the google servers . Even in 3g it wont,and btw Internet works perfectly fine in it(im posting this with it).I did a bit of research and i found that freedom is not allowing it to connect to the server
also i downloaded the root checker app apk on my s4 and it said that root access is not properly installed on this device.Also everytime i restart my phone,i get a message saying "android is upgrading"
please help me,im a newbie with this rooting stuff and im looking desperately for a quick solution but i wasnt able to find one so please help me
Plz email me as well at [email protected] or [email protected]
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. First, get rid of freedom and gamekiller. Those are warez apps and are frowned upon at XDA. I would suggest you flash the stock firmware with odin. That will return it to a like new condition and would be a good way to hand over the device to your brother. just follow this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477 BUT use the firmware for the i9506, not the firmware linked. You can get that at samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com If you need further help you can ask in the link I provided.
Hey everyone,
So this is pretty straight foreward, I'm attempting to root my Galaxy Core Prime (G360T, from T-Mobile in US) and I have had absolutely zero luck finding ANYTHING related that model number.
I've found plenty of stuff here, but it is all related to the G360H, G, and even the T1 (i think?) I've tried Kingo, Odin, and a few other things and I'm getting absolutely no where.
I'm wondering if anyone out here has had any luck with rooting this device in particular, or if maybe there is something I'm missing? I'm pretty new to the idea of rooting devices but I'm a proficient technically so I'm not exactly sure what is going on.
Is it T-Mobile software or something blocking the ability to root? I can't believe there is that much of a difference between my phone and say the G360H.
Thanks in advanced for the help, as I'm totally clueless at this point.

There are many of us using the MetroPCS version G360T1 that will gladly try any root method you get going. Feel free to contact directly if you need some testing help. While waiting for root, I tried Package Disabler Pro 3.7 that was released September 15. It works fine on the G360T1, although it says "Custom" under "Device status" in "About Device -> Status." Haven't gone to Download Mode to see if the triangle is set or not, but I'm guessing the flash counter has been tripped. I'm not worried about it too much, and it may have been tripped with some other attempt to root the device. Still, this app was just what I needed to disable all the junkware and still have a smooth working Lollipop 5.1.1 while waiting for the real goodies.

The thing is i got g3601 and its running kitkat and no update availble on it ??? so i am porting 5.1 for it.Recovery has been patched up and working kinda fine but need to fix alot of issues.normally i dont develop for mid range mobiles but my brother got one so that is why i started with this one.my first projects are z3 + and xperia lines.I will let you know when it is completed for testing.
Hmm, I thought this was for SM-G360T and the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime that is out for T-Mobile and running Lollipop 5.x. Is the G3601 a typo or different model? The MetroPCS G360T1 will work fine with the firmware and files from T-Mobile G360T because they are the same device and even same network provider. Anyway, it looks like someone was kind enough to modify the kernel source code the Samsung posted just a week or two ago. Here is the news, but be warned that it will trip the KNOX flag:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-core/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g360t1-5-1-1-t3203522
I put my G360T1 in download mode and it still says official and no warning triangle. I mentioned that it said custom in the About Phone page after doing other terminal entries and running Package Disabler Pro 3.7. Some may want to wait to root the device until there is a deodex'd rom out there to run xposed framework. I like the slimed down stock 5.1.1 and there are a bunch of garbage programs hogging the decent entry level device resources. More news to come...

My specs:
Model #: SM-360T
Android Version: 5.1.1
Baseband Version: G360TUVU1AOF9
I migrated from Nokia 521 - Windows 8.1 phone to this Android device because of the litany of apps I could use for productivity. I am highly disappointed that I am unable to revoke permissions of applications to resources I think they don't need. So, I basically use phone to make calls and text. If someone has successfully rooted THIS smartphone version, please advise. I'm a little technical, too.
Try this: https://autoroot.chainfire.eu. find your model and download the file you need, unzip it then put your phone in download mode and use odin 3.7 to send it to the phone. That outta be enough. I have not rooted this particular device in a while but I have rooted plenty of others using that method and it works like a charm every time. I just did a quick look up and your model is listed there. Give it a try and post your results.
Thank you so much, Geevil!!!
Appreciate your response.

Hello how would one root the sm-g360t and get custom recovery on it ?
Sent from my SM-G360T using Tapatalk
I have the sm g360t1, though no computer to connect the phone to. I see this phone listed in the cf-auto root repository linked above- not sure if that method needs a computer. King root may have worked, though the root gone by when using w0lfdroid's
Kingroot removal/supersu installer. It worked on orher phones.
King root is such spyware. I really want to try something else...

Yes King Root is bad. Pretty much like malware for your device. Don't use cf-auto-root either, as it's kind of a generic root and doesn't really function properly. I'm helping people constantly fix their devices after either tryung King or CF. Use Trapkernel to root the SM-G360T1 & SM-G360T. It's quick and easy and roots the device with no problems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62859013 Here is the recovery you should use too in case anyone's wondering. You flash it the same way as root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=66266209
I recommend using version 3.0.1-0 though, as version 3.0.2-0 has had problem flashing certain roms for some reason.
Thanks bogarty, I was able to root and flash custom recovery on my phone with both links you provided here.. I have the T-Mobile version (SM-G360T) but everything went well
Dont know if ppl still trying to root this device but I just found out that you can download the rooting file trough chainfire for this model. Here´s the link: https://download.chainfire.eu/767/C...to-Root-cprimeltetmo-cprimeltetmo-smg360t.zip
Why do that when there is a root method for this device.
Follow this thread here for all your root needs for this device

Hey everyone I was hoping for a little help on this 1. I just purchased the Samsung Galaxy Sol (SM- J321AZ) AND wanted to make a back up and possibly flash a custom Rom on this device if at all possible. I have the Galaxy Tab E 8.0 (SM- T377P) and third to do the same thing without making a backup and not it's pretty much a paper weight as every time I download a .tar file it won't flash and none of the major websites have a factory or custom Rom so that I can use it again. (If anyone can help on that as well that would be SUPER AWESOM). Anyways, I don't wanna make the same mistake with this device as the other so I figured I would ask for some help. I need to network I lock the Sol phone as I'm a T- Mobile user but this was the only phone they had at the store that was not a flip phone. Hope someone out there can help.
Thanks in advance.

Galaxy Sol? I gotta admit, I had to look that one up; never heard of that one before. It appears to be brand new, having 6.0 and released just last month, but it's not even on Cricket's website. Weird.
As far as custom ROMs or even root goes, you're probably SOL (pun totally intended), at least for right now. However, Cricket does like to rename a lot of their phones that are otherwise identical to others, so it's possible a root method may exist.
When it comes to carrier unlocking, things can get a bit tricky. Cricket sells phones for fairly cheap because they only sell them to their own customers. In other words, they know they'll at least make up the difference with a minimum of a couple months worth of service. I gather you've purchased this phone second-hand. If it's not already unlocked, you might not be able to get it unlocked short of one of those services you see on eBay. Contact Cricket about it. They have rules and limitations about when and if they'll unlock their phones. Root/ROMs typically can't do anything regarding carrier unlocking. Interesting though that so many newer Cricket devices, even the cheapos, happen to have band 12 for T-Mobile.
I just bought this at best buy a few weeks ago. This phone seems to be exactly the same as the Samsung Galaxy Amp Prime SM-J320 with the exception it being 8GB.

CRICKETWIRESSDOTCOM/cell-phones/smartphones/samsung-galaxy-amp-prime.html
Either way, I was unable to find a stock fw for either of these phones however the firmware allow for OEM unlock. I was looking to at least root and clear away the garbage because out of 8gb I can only use 3GB (also install apps to SD). I don't want to do this unless I have at least a stock fw backup rom to load.
Is there any back door way of downloading this stock firmware? I've look far and wide. Any assistance would ease the pain. Thanks.
here is a link to the stock firmware

Just head to my new post with links to the firmware. http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/samsung-galaxy-sol-sm-j321aza-little-t3420635
This phone is currently $50 at Best Buy. I want to buy it for my mom(she's using my old Nexus 4, which is slowly dying), and this seems like a decent replacement. The thing is, she's on T-Mobile. If this can be unlocked to use on any gsm carrier, that'd be great. I guess I'll have to look around eBay or ask Cricket about unlocking it.

And then I get to deal with the frp lock. I don't have the info for that either, But would it be easier to bypass the frp instead?
I'm not entirely sure but aren't the spec for this the same or almost the same as the Galaxy J3 or the Galaxy amp prime? Would anything from those devices work on this. Like a rom port or root method

that selinux root method earlier in the thread does work for root, and after root just adb shell pull all partitions to port twrp or brew a rom. the specs for the j3 and prime are nearly identical so porting from those two should not be to hard. i went to a new phone so i wont be doing anything further with it. unless i get bored and decide to fish it out the junk drawer for something to do. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1rwlbcYZ8i6NldnV0ppVHJ3Z1U thats the link to the adb file for root and the instructions are here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/release-root-samsung-galaxy-prime-j320az-t3493077 . Sorry thats an Odin flashable boot img with selinux tweeked. sorry havent paid much attention to this phone lately
Ok thanks I'm going to see what I can do. At least TWRP and from there compile a rom. I have nothing but time and patience so I'm gonna build cm13 and see what happens.

hello all.
long time viewer first time posting..
Ive searched, downloaded, and even called Samsung Tech Support to no avail. After a week now this is my final attempt before the phone goes on Ebay..
I have a Samsung Galaxy On5 (SM-GT550T01) through MetroPCS. Acquired last week when I decided to trade a sibling phones. I had actually rooted the phone for them and it was working fine. switched SIM card out etc, theirs works fine mine isn't. Turns out they did a factory reset with root and somehow managed to even wipe the OS leaving me with just Twrp Recovery.. Ive locked up my fair share so first thought was smart switch the SN i found on Twrps terminal was not the original sn anymore? Searched here saw someone post a sn -tried it - it seemed ok until 100% then states an error use code in emergency recovery but does not give me a code.. eventually says cannot recognize anything, Ive tried ODIN, ADB, countless recovery firmware - same result,,,called support was transferred to "the techs" who said they wouldn't be able to force a new OS onto the phone...I find that very hard to believe...sorry for the rant....just wanting to know now if i waste anymore time or buy a new phone....as for knowledge on all this I would say between beginner and intermediate...lots of google/XDA/YouTube and I am usually able to accomplish something..this had me beat as well as awake at 346am...any help appreciated!

What happened with your Samsung oN5 GT5501
Im currently trying to root my samsung GT5501. Now I notice their is a GT550. Different model. I think the GT550 is the ON5 Pro. 16Gb of internal storage, but the one I'm guessing were both inquiring about has an internal storage of 8GB, correct?? Now hopefully were talkg bout the same phone. Now was it the GT5501 the phone u had rooted? If so, did u do it without a PC?? If so can you direct me to instructions or vids. Can't find any specifically for the GT5501. All the tutorials are for the GT550 model..... sorry I wasn't any help to you, but I hope you got it all sorted out...
