Is it possible to root the US Cellular Note edge on android 6.0? If so, what is the procedure?
Edit: I was able to root and install LineageOS with the January security patch on this device.

TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SIDE EFFECTS OR ISSUES THAT COME FROM FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This is what I did:
1. Go to https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ and pick your variant of the Note edge, download that autoroot file.
2. Go to https://odindownload.com/ and get the latest Odin.
3. Put your phone in download mode by pressing power, home and volume down buttons. Press volume up when shown warning sign. Now plug your phone into your PC.
4. Go into odin, click on AP, and select the autoroot file.
5. Now press on start, and let Odin fail.
6. Unplug the phone and now take out the battery, put it back in and follow the same instructions to get into download mode. Once in download mode, plug the phone in to the computer again.
7. Go to [29/03/17][twrp recovery][v3.1.0] and get the ".tar" for your specific model.
8. Flash that the same way as you flashed the autoroot, it should pass this time.
9. Unplug the phone and take the battery out. Use the power, home and volume up buttons this time to boot into twrp.
10. Now, you can go to the adb sideload section and sideload Magisk. I would also recommend you get some other ROM for this phone as I don't know how much magisk likes Android 6. Most ROMs on the Samsung Note 4 xda page have builds for the Note edge as well.

Just got my sprint galaxy s5. Since lots of root method are outdated, I was wondering if I can use towelroot with what I currently have without tripping knox.
My galaxy s5 is currently on android 4.4.4.
The kernel is dated November 2014.
Towelroot only works on pre-June 2014 builds. If I remember right you can Odin to an earlier build and use Towelroot.
Do you know where I can find directions for that? I found some post about this but no specific directions on how to actually do it.
Okay.
Steps:
1. Download odin3.09
2. Download NE5 Kernel and NK4 Kernel onto the computer.
3. Download towelroot to the phone.
4. Power down the phone and go into download mode (hold power + home + down vol button at the same time)
5. Open odin on the computer and connect the phone to the computer. The first square will be blue when connected.
6. Load the NE5 kernel on the AP and check the AP box. Start it and let it reset and remove the usb cable.
7. Power up the phone to the home screen and install towelroot and make it rain. (There will be some force close when it boots up after NE5 kernel is install.)
8. After that, turn off the phone and go into download mode again.
9. Go back into odin and load the NK4 Kernel in the AP slot and check the box. Then start it again.
10. Once done, it'll reset.
11. Go into playstore and get SuperSU app.
Hello pals,
I haven't see this around here but here is the original PD1 tar for sprint also you can root and do the same as the previous update.
how to install.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PLENTY OF BATTERY TURN OFF YOUR DEVICE.
Then press the vol down + power + home button. This puts you into “Download Mode”.
NOW plug your phone in and let Odin recognize it
Let’s click on the START button at the bottom of ODIN and DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE ON THE SCREEN.
The phone will reboot and start up Android, and this is fine for this portion of the process.
It will reboot and you ready to go.
if you want to root again Installing TWRP the same way with odin reboot to recovery and install “SuperSU-v2.71-N920p.zip”
here is the link https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=3E9A804ADEC55F4B!1903&authkey=!AOLSW0GHJ3kUo0c&ithint=file%2czip

Im on official nougat for the s6 (international UK). Warranty is expired, and samsung pay isnt in the uk, so i dont mind tripping KNOX, but if i can leave it un tripped, then it'll be better.
How would i root it? Do i have to instal TWRP? If so, can someone lead me to a tutorial that is legit, and shows me how to root/install twrp and root?
Are there any issues?
Thanks

stock means STOCK FIRMWARE from SAMMOBILE or anyother website.
Hey David, that's a good initiative then, to share what you've learned.
Tipycally Samsung devices are called unbrickable because download mode is (almost) always available.
In download mode you can push a factory (stock) image to your device using Odin, and you can download it from samsungfirmwares dot com or similar.
Even if you are stuck or if the device doesn't respond in UI, you can press the 3 physical buttons for 5 seconds and then release the volume up and power, keeping Home and Down pressed, which will get you to download mode.
This, the camera, the weight, the amoled, are the reasons why I keep buying Samsung since S1.
Cheers

what's new ,flash stock with odin
Hi guys,
So today i tried to install TWRP on my Galaxy S8+ with odin
after reboot it asked for somekind of reset so i did but TWRP wasnt installed.
I tried it again but before it rebooted i checked if TWRP got installed and still no TWRP
so i flashed it again without booting in to the phone.
Phone reboots.. well actually NOT.
its not booting up and keeps showing me the Samsung Galaxy S8+ text with powered by Android below.
So now i tried to flash the stock firmware again but odin keeps saying FAIL (DeviceInfo).
i only can get into download mode, recovery mode buttons doesnt work.
also tried it with Smartswitch & Kies but after downloading the firmware it wont recognize my phone.
Please someone help? i really dont know what to do anymore...
You can download Samsung Smart Switch and choose the emergency software recovery option. You'll loose everything on the phone but it sounds
as if you're already there.
It will ask for your phone serial and exact model no., then it will download the latest release and install.
Usually will work from the screen your on, but if a prob., boot into download mode.

What device model do you have?
I assume its a 955F or FD?
Please dont tell me you have a U version.
sent from my Note FE, S8 plus, S7 edge or S6
1. Download earlier firmware AQF7
2. Hold power, volume down and bixby button for download mode
3. Open Odin on your PC
4. Add the AQF7 BL and only this
5. Hit start and straight after this hold the 3 buttons in again power, volume down and bixby (this should fail at first and bring you straight back into download mode)
6. Now back on Odin spam the start button this time (this should flash the BL and have you sorted again)

This - you probably have the newer AQG5 bootloader, which TWRP doesn't support yet.
So follow the instructions above, flash back to the previous bootloader, the you'll be able to flash TWRP ok.

I had the same issue once before. What the fail device info. I think I fixed it by using the most recent update (I think). And messing around with csc files. All this was done half assed in desperation. Then went back to the unlocked firmware and stopped messing with it. Yes Smart switch didn't do crap. Use updato.com to obtain your firmwares
