i tried to use the safestrap method and bricked my phone but samsmobile and odin saved my life again, but I know I can root the ota, but what really can we do with it? is it possible it install xposed or can we do anything with it other then getting rom toolbox??? im just curious and I don't want to go exploring and do more damage I was lucky I saved my phone this time.......
Hello again!
i flashed xposed successfully on stang5litre's oc1 5.0.1 lollipop rom. I don't know about stock though, i believe your rom has to be deodexed. :good:
Well now I got my phone working there is no way I can down grade or get a recovery and flash roms or get a dexoted rom or anything. ?? I only went back to Android from apple for the roms. Time for an upgrade already

To install stang5litre's rom you don't have to downgrade anything or install a custom recovery. All you have to do is install the app called FlashFire. google how to do it or on xda

Hi,
Kingroot dosent want you to root your phone uninstall kingroot, and use supersu
They are wanting to keep their
Super in control. They maynot
Allow you to use their app to reinstall. Not sure how they know but they will not allow me to use their apps.. they fail
To root on all three apps. . Ps they asked me to email them my error logs on the desk top version and they told me they cant root my phone for now . They will email me when it works...??????...

Make sure you have the Samsung drivers installed on your computer so odin recognizes your phone
Just install it in Odin .
Then download a rom of choice and follow the install instructions for the particular Rom

The easiest way is to downgrade to an earlier version that you can use towel root to root with .. As far as I know their is no way to root NH5 as of now .. I could be wrong but Im pretty sure ..Have you rooted a samsung device before ?

There's a way to root every version of software they're released. Since the bootloader is unlocked, all that's needed is to flash a custom recovery, then when TWRP asks you if you want to root, just click yes, and you're done. It'll always be like this unless they lock the bootloader.

Google is your friend. Don't take this the wrong way, but if people keep giving you links, you'll never find what you're looking for yourself. If you just google "TWRP Galaxy S5", the first link is the right one. It'll tell you how to flash it as well using ODIN.

Why? Tmobile does even care.
No I know that, but Samsung AllShare Cast Dongle does care.. the dongle won't work on a rooted device. I had a Samsung galaxy note 10.1 that I rooted but I used triangle away to reset counter and it then would work. I use my tablet and dongle most nights and my other allshare in my car for my appradio. The S5 and Tab S will be first devices I didn't root
Any news on Knox?
Its been awhile since i rooted my phones and flashed roms. I juat rooted my s5. But i dont believe i installed a custom recovery. In the past i always downloaded rom manager and installed cwm through the app. But it says device not compatible. Or ud download goo manager and install twrp through that app and i dont see the version for my tmobile s5 listed. Can someone help me with flashing a custom recovery. And recommend any stable custom roms i should try out. Also if there is anything i need to be careful of when flashing i dont care about tripping my knox counter. My device isnt warrantied anyway.

it'll probably be your only method. the Chinese seem to be taking over these root and jailbreak exploits. over on iOS, TaiG is the only group who has a jailbreak for the newest versions of that. and kingroot seems to be getting a similar status for people who want one-click root exploits.
keep in mind, root is a dangerous thing and it seriously harms the security of your device. you may not trust the Chinese, but they've probably been doing this all along.
good news though, you can replace the kinguser stuff with SuperSU somehow. don't ask me, I'm still running KitKat
KingRoot works. I just did it. Super easy.

I might be wrong but my understanding is that currently you can not install install any custom ROM on OC1, so why rush to root?
Any reason besides ability to uninstall some apps?

Apparently you can flash Stang5litre ROM on OTA 5.01 using Flashfire. I haven't tried it myself but if you go to the last couple of pages on the Stang5litre topic you will see post from those who were successful in flashing it on OC1.
Like the title... i have read some post in this forum about rooted S4 5.0.1 with Kingroot but I've tried many times and result is my phone can't root? Why?
i downloaded Kingroot app install and run it but when running at 51% my phone reboot and root failed... I've tried PC version but it isn't work,too?
Any support for me?:silly:

Just a question. Are you sure you're not on the new OF1 that was just pushed out. I've seen posts where people fit it without knowing. This will kill the ability for root for now.

I'm having trouble also but with a twist. I was rooted with kingroot and flashed stangs rom but something went wrong and I just got a black screen after boot. I flashed a stock vzw oc1 firmware via odin and now no root for me. I've tried about every version with the same results. I'm baffled why I can't root again.

So sad but it's true i hear everybody told OC1 now can't root... but you saw that in xda forum of I545 have a few post about rooted success OC1 Stock with Kingroot... i don't think it true.. because i've tried it many times...
I did root with kingroot the first time but when I had to flash the stock oc1 rom to my phone and try to root again, kingroot just can't do it this time
Here's a couple of questions regarding Kingroot...
1. How do we all know this is trustworthy? I have read many things across the net. Some good and some bad.
2. If it is trustworthy why is there not an English translation? There may be one but I have yet to find ot.
I am on a Verizon S4 running 5.0.1 OC1 and am wanting to root extremely bad but I also want to be cautious. I took the update via Kies so I know I can't downgrade to 4.4.4 or 4.4.2. Any help would be great.
Thanks

I have just re-rooted using kingroot, but had to use the desktop v3.0, and yes it is all in Chinese. I don't speak Chinese so it was definitely a trial and error process. As soon as you root you run an app called supersume to remove the kingroot files and superuser(kinguser) and it installs chainfire's supersu. I'm glad I have root access again.

I think Lollipop 5.0.1 in S4 I545 so bad... why it doesn't run well like i9505? Bloatware about ~1.5GB in my memory.... not only it keep running background but also make my phone slow down, lag and so on.... i don't like it when the first I've seen =]]z:silly:
ugh. so frustrated! I got the edge Friday and rooted it using autoroot with no problems. I tried Saturday to install a custom ROM and got stuck in a boot loop. Finally flashed new firmware via Odin late Saturday night and was able to get it to boot. Since then I can't get root back. Every time I do, I get stuck in a bootloop. I get to the sprint spark screen and it reboots. I have followed the instructions step by step for root including the updated superuser. After I run autoroot via Odin, it restarts but then I boot into recovery, install superuser and reboot and it goes into the loop. I have to reflash the firmware via Odin to get out of it. I used N915PVPU4COG1_N915PSPT4COG1_SPR from the samsung firware website. My phone info is:
version - 5.1.1
Kernel - 3.10.40-5227917
Build, software and baseband are all - LMY47X.N915PVPU4COG1
I'm stumped. I can usually figure this out by myself and since I got my first Android years ago I've been able to eventually get things to work. I've tried superuser 2.16 and 2.46 with the same results.
The only thing I haven't done is try CWM and that's just because I KNOW TWRP works because I got it to work Friday.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not.../root-supported-kernel-5-1-1-testers-t3176651
I don't believe cf-autoroot is working on 5.1.1. Also since you took the 5.1.1 update you won't be able roll back to a different firmware. Just sit tight and wait for root to become available for 5.1.1.
The thread i linked to is for a root supported kernel. It isn't available yet but hopefully will be available soon.
Version 5.1.1. isn't able to be rooted yet. You just got the edge and it of course came with that ROM. Every one who had 5.0.1 was able to root (I'm still rooted because I didn't update), but there were ones that took the update and assumed that they could root like before. But that's not the case. Samsung did stuff to the new version to stop the old ways of rooting. There are a few that are trying to get root, but it's been a process since the update came out, and there isn't any word on success. And the new ROM doesn't allow you to go to an older version. Just like ones that updated to Lollipop from KitKat, they can't go back to KitKat, and anyone who has this new version can't root or go anywhere but wait and hope. It's not just you.

So I got a SM-G900t today. So far all I did was update it to 5.1.1 with Kies.
Then I changed the .tar with Odin to root it. Now it is stuck on endless boot loop, I've tried all the stuff to get out.
So I guess the .tar file was bad. How can I find the stock .tar or one that will root my phone?
