Help!
I recently installed a wireless pad into my Galaxy S4. All was working ok for a few days with the charging apart from the well known issue of the phone constantly beeping with the Wireless Charging Message.
Anyway I needed to root the phone to change the system file charging sound/ noise.
I used the Kingoapp root method, and since then the phone keeps randomly rebooting. It could happen at any time. I used the Kingoapp to unroot the device- but the rebooting still happens.
How can I stop the reboots? New kernel, new Rom? I don't seem to be running KNOX on the phone.
I would like to avoid completely reflashing the device because it will take a long time to get my data and apps and setup back onto the device.
Any advice would be most appreciated.

Hi mate ,
Once you root the phone you have to remove all knox from your phone , is a known issue

Thanks for the response. Removing KNOX seems to have done the trick- it's been 2 days with no reboots.
I thought I'd be able to go back to exactly the same as pre-root. But I presume once you've rooted you trigger KNOX & you can't go back to exactly as you had the phone pre-root.
Anyway I presume a Android 5 build will be out soon for the GS4
I rooted my Galaxy Note3 Neo. It gets reboot infinite time. I can't get any screen. What to do?

You are in the wrong forums. Those are the S4 forums.
But regarding your problem, you might need to re-flash a stock ROM.

You're in the wrong thread, but anyways, try factory resetting through recovery, or flash your stock ROM and root using SuperSU.
Check the note 3 neo thread for more help.
Good day,
Recently I got my mew Samsung Note 4.
The first day I had no problems, wifi was working fine (not rooted yet)
The next day I rooted my phone using CF root.
The next day when I turned on my phone I noticed that wifi could not be turned on.
So I thought it was a malfunction in the telephone. I send my phone back to a repair center and they replaced the mainboard.
After 2 weeks I got my phone back and offcourse I rooted it again (CF root).
Again my Wifi didn't work anymore.
I unrooted my phone and wifi works again.
So there is something in CF root what is causing problems.
Does anyone have had the same problems, and mayby has a solution???
I hope Chainfire also reads this and perhaps can tell me how I can fix it.
Thanks in advance,

Hey folks, hope I`m not coming off as one of the "hey, I broke my stuff, how can I fix it without anyone knowing I broke it" types LOL. I`ve actually been modding Android devices since my Droid X what seems like ages ago, and have done a few along the way so it`s not new in theory. So....I`ve got an I337 S4. It appeared with 4.4.4 on it, and you can imagine how that went when I started modding. My ultimate goal was/is simply to have the native tether app working (and it was, very briefly). Long story short, I bricked it, and brought it back with 4.3 on Odin. It functions fine with the exception of Wifi. It won`t activate wifi, a very, very common problem I`m reading. I`m totally comfortable doing the mods to get it going, I just don`t know what I need. It`s rooted. (here`s where I`m lost): Baseband version is FNJ4, bootloader is FNJ4, but the BUILD number is MK2. Tried the BypassLKM method, no dice. So my question is this: What is the simplest way to get WiFi access back so I can get the Native Tether function going again? If everything was FNJ4 or MK2 I`d be able to make something happen, but several approaches have gotten me bootlooped and I`1m just ready to get it right (safestrap has saved my a$$).
Thanks for any help!!

See, a studious and persistent student of modding gets the worm LOL. I got my WiFi back with this procedure right here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/how-to-root-i337ucufni1-t2881298
I used the safestrap method without a hitch. Hope it helps someone else out there
Hi. So a few days ago i accidentally left my phone outside and turned on the sprinklers. When i found it it was super wet. The power button wouldn't work and it would turn on and off for some reason so i went to ask my friend for help. I had insurance but i wanted to let him check it out to see if he could fix it. He said i had rooted my phone and the warranty is off and he doesn't know what to do. I had rooted my phone and then i updated my phone to lollipop, rooted it back and bricked it. It took me a while to unbrick it back. and then i asked for assistance from root experts and my phone rooted. I finally unrooted it a few months ago. my friend says theres this message on my software updates saying that it has been modified in an unauthorized way. Is there any way for me to not let mobile find out that its rooted so i can get a new phone with my insurance? Is my phone properly unrooted? I used odin and now i asked my dad and its still not working. Please help!
Someone I work with has the s5 active model g870a that has received the marshmallow 6.0.1 update. Something has happened that for some reason has wiped all of the pictures from her phone. I was going to see if I can recover anything from the phone, however I will need root access if I am going to examine the empty parts of the drive to see if I can recover anything. Does/can anyone tell me an effective rooting method for this phone? Does anyone have any idea how I can attempt a recovery of the photos without root?
*Edit*
I see there is a cf autoroot for SM-G870W. I feel like if I try this method I'm going to be looking at a bricked phone.
It can not be rooted, live and learn.... bu next time...
