New SAFEROOT method question - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I see the New SAFEROOT method out on another thread and read through some comments. I am new to rooting and was wondering if simply rooting my s4 device will delete any data. I just need to root my i337 on the latest band to tether. Thanks in advanced.

Will not delete any data. SafeRoot is by far the simplest root method for the s4 right now.

When I bought it they told me that I cant root it or I will lose it
Can you help me?
Did you search at all for an answer? Try that and I'm sure you'll find it.

If you cant find out how to root a the device than you probably shooting be attempting to root it at all. If that's what you mean by did it work for you.
Not to be mean but a huge clue/hint was given to you. Go back and look in the Q&A section. There is a sticky that can help.

Yes, there are root guides. Yes, they are in this forum. No, this is not Q&A.

@NighthawkXL, that root method works for all current firmware versions of the S4.

I did the same thing. SafeRoot is basically a one click root, no terminal commands, no exfat. So much easier.

Sprint L720 MK2 Root?

I've seen a Verizon version but nothing safe released so far for Sprint... Is that correct?
No that is not correct. You can root MK2 the same way that you root any of the stock Sprint versions.
Please search. There are a dozen people over in the Q&A section (where this should have been posted) who have asked this same question in the last 2 weeks.

I did look but didn't see any for Sprint that were reliable. I (and others) have had SU binary issues when using other methods. Do you have any links?
Thanks for the reply!

did you figure this out?
cf auto root.

I've already stated. Safe root.

Another option is Kingo root. I used it to successfully root my sister-in-law's stock MK2 without triggering Knox.
I've used SafeRoot on my Verizon S4. Great method, great Dev

Is this a full root?
Also, Anybody else confirm this?

What do you mean by full root? There's only one type of root lol

Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Root

I accidentally let my phone update to 4.4.4. Can someone guide me through the process of downgrading to 4.4.2 so I can use towel root? Thanks!

No way to downgrade. Your stuck. And no way to root 4.4.4. Please read around the General and Q&A sections of the Verizon Note 3. This question has been asked and answered plenty of times.
