[Q] Is there root process for I337UCUFNJ5?
Hello,
Recently there was a firmware OTA sent out from ATT for the Galaxy S4 SGH-I337.
Prior to this I rooted the phone using towelroot.
Of course after the update I lost my root and now I want to root it again!
Will I have to reflash an older firmware (NJ4) or does anyone know of a process to root this current firmware NJ5?
I took the update also. Lost root. I then used Odin to flash the I337_NC1_Stock_Kernel. Have Towel root v3 on phone before flashing since I lost wifi and data after the flash. Run towelroot and its rooted. Then odin I337_NJ4_Stock_Kernel on. Its rooted. Use Titanium to stop update of NJ5. Until someone figures out how....

Sooo, pretty self explanitory, I rooted my Galaxy S4, got some OTA update, which unrooted me. I tried to do the Motochopper method again by downgrading my build number but now ODEN won't do it. My current build number is JDQ39.I545VRUAME7. ROM manager still thinks CWM is installed but I can't boot into it. Any tips on what I should do?
Wait until you are able to fully root again.

I cant get official OTA update for my Samsung galaxy s3 from Android 4.1.2 to 4.3. Whenever i click system update it shows " Your system is up to date" . I know the reason for getting this problem. Because i have rooted my phone. Now can anyone help me getting ota update without losing any data and root access.
Details:
Samsung galaxy s3 GT-19300 international version
Android 4.1.2
Stock rom
Cwm recovery
Baseband version :19300xxema5
Flash counter displays '1'.
This is because of flashing chainfire root to acquire root access
Triangle away not used.
Its cause your system is modified (facepalm) ie rooted.
Just flash the latest firmware whichever you want via odin or unroot fully if you want to get ota updates

Try to use kies, sometimes it doesn't mind heaving rooted stock rom...
Otherwise, you should use Odin as suggested

Unroot the phone im not sure if it works i haven't tried it but fully unrooting it from the supersu app then do the ota update and then root it back that's the only way if you don't want to go through the whole backup processes.
Its risky though just backup your apps with tib and move your important files off the sdcard and flash via odin it shouldn't take too long

A few months ago I upgraded to g33ker's Jelly bean update(e97020j), the official one. Before that I had the official ICS firmware and I had been able to root and unlock the bootloader easily. But after upgrading and trying a number of rooting methods, I have failed to root the phone.
I really want to upgrade to a newer custom firmware but the universal root first and then the app Framaroot failed to root my phone. Both the process showed succesfull at the end of the procedure but the root checker still show my phone to be unrooted and neither can I use the freegee app. It just appears blank. Please help.
My phone would not show that an OTA update was available for the Lollipop 5.0.1 update so I had to use Odin for the update.
-I did a full unroot.
-Using Odin I flashed the OC1 Neutered full odin rar file
- The update was successful and I now have 5.0.1.
My questions begin here. How can I regain root access using Odin now that I have the update.
Can I flash the NC5 kernel, use towelroot, SU, without tripping Knox?
From what I have researched so far I believe i would have to go back to KitKat to get root access. I am just trying to confirm.
Any and all help is appreciated. I have a good bit of experience I am just new to the forums. I would love to have Root access with this new OS.
Hi there. I just broke my s6 and so had to go back to my old s4, heh. I currently have a rooted OC1, and I was looking at the latest info on available root methods and see that the OF1 can be rooted using kingroot. My phone shows an OTA available but repeatedly fails when trying to update.
My question is, should I try to figure out what is causing the failure, update the "right" way, and then root with kingroot? Or should I just figure out another way to get the update, like I think the old way was to downgrade to OC1, root, then odin the OF1 update. Should I just do that?
This happens when you try to ota on a rom which has root or has been modified. Just dont update it doesnt add any features
