Help cant root s4 i9505

Hey guys im having a problem rooting my new s4 (i9505) using cfroot by chainfire .i did follow everything but i still having an issue. Is there any solution for this on how to do it easy? 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.

Download the official firmware from sammobile.com for your model no.
Flash it via odin
Youre done
But you will loose root access. For that, use towelroot. ^_^
Press Thanks if I helped

Towelroot will work with 4.2.2 ucuamdl , at least it did for me. You will also want to stay on ucuamdl so you can install a custom recovery and custom roms.
