Root without CABLE - is it possible? Note 5 - General Questions and Answers

Hi there
I would like to root my annoying Samsung Note 5. My usb port only charges it does not work with data at all. It has been replaced to no avail. What process / software (ADB?) can I use to root my phone? Once rooted I intend to install TWRP and use a custom rom.
I have tried Kingoroot but it was unsuccessful.
Thanks!

If the USB port doesn't work, the only possible way for you to root the device is by using one of the universal rooting apps like Kingroot and hoping one of them works. You tried Kingroot, now try all of the other apps that do the same thing that Kingroot does.
Other than that, you'll have to get the USB port properly repaired.

It actually stopped working 3 months after I got the phone. It melted the usb cable with all geuine parts. Samsung said tough luck as I bought it in Australia when my other note packed up...so much for warranty.
I have sent to two repair centres both tried genuine parts and neither worked. So it charges but that's it. They said they can't repair the IC. New motherboard $300 USD according to them. My battery life is hopeless with the Samsung bloat. I recently rooted my backup Note 2 and bat life went from 1 day to 2 days.
I tried Kingoroot not kingroot. Is there a list of others I can try? I am prepared to pay for a rooting solution.

Do a Google search for:
"Apps for rooting android without PC"
That will find many different apps, try them all. If they don't work, replace the motherboard, get a new device or do nothing at all.
What is your model number?
Do a Google search for:
"Motherboard replacement for Galaxy Note 5 (your model number)"
They are for sale for an average price of $50 USD(around $30-$90). It isn't that hard to replace the motherboard for yourself. You can find youtube videos that demonstrate how to tear down your model number device and replace the motherboard.

in addition to what @Droidriven had mentioned...
If your a bit Tech savvy...
The Galaxy Note 5 has a separate USB Charging Board that you can purchase from places like ebay from $10 - $25+ depending on who you purchase it from.
The following is an ifixit link with guides and such (including Pictures and Videos) that will give you a sense of the inside breakdown.
https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_Galaxy_Note5
The following is an example of a Note 5 USB Charging Board that's listed on ebay (just for example).
https://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Micro-...r-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-5-N920T-F/162676666900?
Just a helpful FYI... I can't guarantee anything either since I've never owned a Note device.
Good Luck!

hmmm....the USB port has its own board separate from the mainboard? That makes it even easier.

My apologies... LMAO!
I just noticed it after I had posted it with an "oh crapola" in mind...
Other than that, to be more cost effective, I can only think of purchasing another Note 5 (same variant of course) with a locked, bricked, etc... Motherboard and try swapping out the motherboards only.

I edited my previous reply, replacing the whole USB board will probably work.
I'm not sure if they tried having just the USB itself replaced or if they tried replacing the board. Replacing the board is definitely a viable option if they haven't already tried it.

If you want to use hardware demanding software, such as this game, then you need to get a device with better, more capable hardware. It doesn't have to be a more expensive device, there are plenty of devices with sufficient hardware at very decent prices.
You can't turn lead(your device) into gold(a device that can run higher software).
You get what you pay for. If you buy a cheap device, don't expect it to be able to do "the cool stuff". If you have a device that is several years old, don't expect it to be able to keep up with newer software.

What Modable phone are you using on Verizon's us network?

I am looking to upgrade my galaxy s5. Verizon is the worst but they are what works in my area. I may end up just buying another s5 because I want a phone with an unlockable bootloader that I can flash custom ROM's.
Does anyone know of anything besides a pixel, pixelXL or Essential PS 1 that has an unlockable bootloader and decent XDA custom ROM support? Please don't bother replying unless you have personality used said device on Verizon, because I have posted similar questions around XDA and found people are confused. I have had many people tell me ____ Motorola or ____Lg or ____HTC only to find the Verizon variant can't be bootloader unlocked.
Thanks for your time.

I do have 2 G900V devices with an unlocked bootloader myself but, it's not easy to determine what one has the CID11 or CID15 but, It's funny that I had made an offer of $40 on ebay for a G900T that's already unlocked with TWRP and CyanogenMod in it with a clean ESN and the seller accepted it and it's actually on it's way here now. I really didn't expect the seller to accept the offer that was half of what he asked for.
You'll be surprised on how many new/used devices are on ebay that's already unlocked with TWRP and a Custom Firmware as well.
Just my little suggestion for you... :thumbup:
I wish you the best of luck in your search!

iconadserve virus

Hey guys a friend of mine has a Samsung galaxy S7 edge, he has been upgrading the last 3-4 years his Galaxy series, and every time he gets a new phone he gets these browser short cuts that auto install. When you click them it takes you to iconadserve.com and then redirects you to book flights website. No matter how many times you wipe etc it keeps auto install these shortcuts. Has anyone heard of those and can help me get rid of them? Thanks
Pictures should be attached thanks

With so many individuals, who were either Successful and Unsuccessful in getting this option to appear, this is a real challenge to easily answer.
Even though there's the 7 day waiting period that supposed to be the norm, I feel that Samsung really botched it up.
There's a conversion regarding this on the following thread (that's specific to your device) that may be one of the better places to go and search for an answer and ask if needed.
