Good afternoon
I am from Brazil and I love my Galaxy S4 with android 4.3 it is a sensational phone. On the other hand I lost some files in it and I have been digging up ways to recover them. One way was through Dr.Fone. which required root for android 4.3, and I could not find any other solution. I was looking for a trouble free solution without root, but my best shot until now was Dr.Fone.
Do I have to root to recover those files?
Is there anyway I can recover those files without root??
If I have to root how do I do it?
I am newbie so sorry if I seem retard.

To recover deleted files using a mobile app, you probably will need root. There are good guides available on how to root your device. Start by looking here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4
But is there any solution even using the PC if necessary without root?

Does anyone know how to pull an app and its data from tb? I don't want to root quite yet, but I desperately need a certain app that I previously backed up before my upgrade to gs4.

UnRooting is quite easy if you're on MDC. Just Google unroot Samsung galaxy s4.

You can skip the part where he talks about getting the update. This root worked for me. You can change recovery after you're done.
Warning: not sure if there is an unroot. You might be able to flash back to unroot but I am not sure. If anyone knows please say so.

If you use the forums search function you will find many instances where people ran across the same thing for many different reasons. You will need to check (based on what you will find) and see which reason is causing your problem with ADB. It could be anything from a driver issue to out-of-date SDK tools and many other reasons so there is no way to know until you check and trouble shoot.
the de-odex thread talks about at&t. will this work on other carriers?
Rogers in particular?

Hey, does anyone know how to root i9506 cause I can't find any I always see i9505. If anyone can link me to it or tell me how to do it, it will much appreciated. Thanks
Have you tried the method recommended for the i9505? CF-Autoroot. Worth a shot.
Have you tried to look in the i9506 forum here?
I know i have, and i'm rooted!
Dont want to take any chances with using the i9505 method.

Thanks but they only have the file. Do I just boot into download mode and download the root zip from there? Or is there something I'm missing?

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
