As far as i know there is a possible root. Is it XT912, or XT902? That'd be helpful information. Also your probably ruining jellybean(4.1.2) which you can root. There is a forum explaining the root process for a razr m using motochopper.

Is it possible to download the spark ot manually? Non rooted

I unrooted my phone few weeks ago to take the new spark update. I know there are a few tricks a lot of you know of to keep root but I decided to go the safe route. I've been reading this site for a few days without seeing any apk for the new spark update... I think. Simply put is there a way to download this ota without waiting for it to come ota?

Everything I've read says you have to root and custom recovery to get it but keep in mind I haven't read everything

Hi everybody can u help me..?
I would like to root my phone Samsung Galaxy S4, but I do not know how to do it. Rather the Internet is a lot of practice, but I'd rather not give you advice from the best plus the best ROM .. they use.
Thank you in advance what they give me all functions of the Council.

Try Kingo Root

If you're a beginner, I HIGHLY recommend going to www.galaxys4root.com. They have absolutely everything you need right there to get started and much more. That's how I rooted my Galaxy S 4 for the first time. Hope this helps

Kingo Root is what I used and it was very simple just go to there website and click download for windows and run the then plug in your phone give it a couple minuite to install the drivers and then it gives you an option to root just click that and wait and then your rooted

Rooting S4 Kit Kat

Would think there would be a Root available for this phone by Now, as Kit Kat has been out a few months Now.
Nope

But only a couple weeks for our phone...theres plenty of kitkat phones that have root, even many of the sgs4 variants have root, its our locked bootloader that makes it hard

Correct. Most other s4 variants achieved root by flashing a custom recovery. Thanks to the locked bootloader we can't use that method. A vulnerability has to be found that allows us to write superuser to the system.
