You can root it with a Mac, if that's what you mean. If you mean without a computer at all, then no.

ROOT issue...

Hi,
So I've done something stupid, I've uninstalled root using SuperSU and now I need root back, is there a Cwm flashable way to sort this? Or would I have to use the PC root method? I have Cwm installed(if I hold power and vol down)...

I recommend you do a search before posting... the answer to your question is yes though.

Yeah, I would do... But the free app doesn't have the facility.
And what do you mean yes? That I would need to go through the whole process again via PC?

No, you can flash in recovery. All of the guides in this forum mention it. I don't even have this device yet, but I've read through the forums a bit. I suggest you do the same.

What phone are we talking about? GT-S5670?
If your phone is an i9505 and you root using CF-Auto Root, SuperSU will automatically be installed.
Another way is to download and install SuperSU from Google Play Store.

Well you would need Odin and it only runs on PC (if i recall correctly) so it's a no go..

Root your phone. Then download an app called folder Mount. It'll make the changes as it starts up. We'll it will request to. Then you'll regain access

Did you flash the nc1 kernel with Odin? You said you didn't have a computer. You need to be on that kernel for towelroot to work

If you're going to root your phone you'll need to get your pc to recognize it or you won't be able to flash the nc1 kernel. When booted into download mode and you'd phone connected to your pc what do you see in device manager? I assume you have a Windows pc.

I understand that you'd like to do it without a computer, but without the nc1 kernel there is no way to root. And you'll need a computer to run Odin and flash the nc1 kernel.
tldr, it ain't happening!
