Thanks guys n i was running XXUBMF8 stock official and then downloaded official xxbmga on sammobile and still cant root it tho.
Flash your new MGA with Odin.
After use the CF-Root of chainfire flash it.
You should look if the chainfire is compatible with your device
Well I'm on Omega rom. I do not need to use Chainfire for root the phone because the Rom is already rooted.

if update you will loose root access
If you still want the OTA, i believe you can still get it but you will lose root access

it is also very confusing that all the 3 custom recoveryies available for the GT i9505 are not yet stable and there are several people who complain about them..
Hi,
I was previously rooted on Android 4.2.2 via CF-Root .I upgraded my S4 i9500 to 4.3 (MJ9) (INU) . Which is the best method root it ?
Does CF-Root still work with 4.3 ROMs (MJ9 touchwiz stock ROM to be precise) ?
Please tell which is the best way to root ..

CF Autoroot (Chainfire) supports 4.3 i9500 as far as I am aware:good:
CF seems to be the best bet.

You can follow this..

DONT FLASH THE FILES ATTACHED IN THE THREAD.
GET THE SIMILAR FOR YOUR FIRMWARE.
THIS IS ONLY THE METHOD OF HOW TO MAKE TOWELROOT WORK.
Relying on your point that i9507 = i9505. (Almost)
In a simpler way,
Download towelroot on your phone
Get stock kernels of the firmware that you are using right now and of an older 4.4.2 version (say early august)
Flash the kernel of the previous version of 4.4.2.
Use towelroot
Flash latest kernel.
You have root without tripping Knox
If you want to trip Knox (many don't want to trip it and many don't care if it trips) see for chainfire's cf-autoroot flashable via odin.
Or
If you have philz recovery for your phone, flash philz and then in recovery-philz options-reroot your phone.
