[Q] Sprint s4 l720t root - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hi this is my first post, don't know if I'm in the right section.
Just received a new phone s4 for my daughter and I received L720T, is there a root to get free hotspot?
Been looking but can't find one for L720T version. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Side question. Did your daughter get the L720T version through a sprint store or online?, I ask because I am trying to get my sister the T version and will be going to a sprint store tomorrow.
Back to your question: I believe some members here were able to root with cf-auto root by chainfire. The one meant for the SPH-L720.

CF-autoroot will root the phone, but as of right now, no one has created a hotspot mod for the "T" version. Crawj made all the original hotspot mods for the S-4 but he hasn't made one for awhile. Another user "fgr" made the mod for the MK2 version. These mods are not interchangeable and are version specific so if you install one that is not for your software version you will brick the phone. I would PM fgr and ask him if he can mod the hotspot for the 720T. He will probably need you to send him the 2 files so he can mod them.
An alternative method is to install the xposed framework installer and then download wanum from the playstore. Wanum has a tethering provision option to unlock the hotspot. You can also customize the stock rom with wanum so it is a worthwhile install.

I'd check with one of the forum members who offers this service, they're more reliable.

I'm guessing it won't work since to the right of the page it says select your device and the L720 isn't listed.

I see you posting all over the forums trying to unlock this phone. Can I ask why did you buy a U.S. Sprint phone if you want to use a unlocked phone? And where are you trying to use it?

Whats different between i9500/i9505 and i9505G ?

HI. I want to buy unlocked s4 for my g-f and dont know what i should choose and why. Whats different ... ?
Me too... just got one from tmobile.. how do i know what version do i have?
Thanks you

i9500 is the exynos octa core version without 4G. i9505 is the Snapdragon quad core version with 4G enabled. The i9505G has different software from Google, but has same internals as i9505.
Id say if you do not care about developer support or 4G, go for the i9500. Otherwise, go for the i9505 which is the more popular variant.

Samsung Galaxy S4 USA variants come with LTE 4G network and is available on different carriers across the US.
SGH-M919 – for T-Mobile USA (so you got a Tmobile version)

I will share a big, top level secret, hidden deeply by Samsung: go to settings, more, about device, and take a look on the model number.

Could you ask yourself WHY there are different sections? Yes, young Einstein, because the ROM's are not compatible without messing with repartitioning and bootloader change.

You shall be on the subforum appropriate for your device. I would recommend you to search the XDA forums (there is a special tool for it). If you are unable to do such (may be complicated and frustrating especially if you did not graduated from the Primary School) use this link

Hi,
Unfortunately it's not recommended to try repartitioning your bootloader, after all it can brick your device. And because of such there's no working on this area. I wouldn't risk try installing a 9505 ROM on 9505G, but you can ask for better feedback on the Q&A thread .

OK, so you have opposite situation.
In that case you need to do the flashing with the repartitioning. There are several threads related with that, even in this subforum.
If I'd be you, I'd use the PIT file (if your phone is 16GB edition, if not, do not hesitate to find another one by yourself) fro the thread: "Unroot/Unbrick, Flash official stock firmware on Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 & I9505 " which can be easily found, with the ROM of the choice.
Reason of the repartitioning: the google edition has completely different partitions size, including the system partition (google edition is smaller), therefore the flash will be unsuccessful in best case.
Worse case scenario: you will have bricked phone.

Successful Root?

Hey guys, another question here.
Ive been watching arters thread for some time now and i have yet to see anyone there post with the model [SM-G928P]. This model pertains to the sprint verison i currently hold but was wondering if anyone else with this model has been able to somehow root the phone?
Completely dumbfounded at how many models and versions sammy has released with this phone. Or maybe im the unlucky one and have the only P version in the world
Not complaining but was just curious is all.
arter97 said that he won't support Sprint.
Also as far as I know Sprint and Verizon has locked bootloader and when you root the phone, you won't be able to turn it on again.

Sprint can be rooted. It is not yet. See Sprint Note 5 dev thread for the "possibilities " The sprint s6e+ phone should have the same rootabilty as the Sprint note 5.

Thats sad to hear. Also i thought it was AT&T and Verizon with the locked bootloaders? Or was i mistaken?
Oh yeah sorry.
arter97 said he doesn't want to develop it for CDMA Devices, which is Sprint. So, someone MAY come up with root.
Hi
your answer is right and i am agree with this.Thank you for your informative task .
Thats sad to hear. It seems like a great start for the S6E+ however. Hopefully us CDMA users can join the party soon enough. Thanks for the info on arter AK. Appriciate it.

New here, need a little help with rooting...

Hi, so, I'm new here and I'm trying to root my verizon note 3 and i see a few threads saying ways but I'm not sure what to trust... I also apologize about this not being under the development thread but it wouldnt let me put it there since I dont have enough reputation points and whatnot. If you need my email, phone specs, etc, respond and I'll provide.
Much appreciated.

Thanks for such a fast response.
Baseband version: N900VVRUEOF1
Android version: 5.0 (Lollipop)
What exactly is a baseband version? I just copied that string from my phone settings, dont really know what it means
When an update gets pushed to our phones from Verizon or who ever our carrier is that changes..idk all the details I'm not an expert but they add new things and patches ect. To the phone and that will let you know what version you have. Now give me a little bit and I'll copy and paste where you should go to root you're phone, make sure the read everything and follow everything that say in the 1st post and you should be good..I've been rooting for about 6 years now since my DROID eris and just followed everything they said and never had a problem. I'm become more balley I guess now haven done it and know how to fix a bricked phone and have messed up but always manage to get it fix

Thank you!! Coincidentally my first phone was an Eris as well... Got it used for free from a friend and I only stopped using when the trackball crapped out
you can root Android version 5.0 Baseband version OF1 or OB6 with this method :

Sadly, this link no longer works. What is the deal-e-o with these links?
Is there a conspiracy in place to prevent upgrades from 5.0 PL1?
Do you have a more resent suggestion that might get me to 7,8 or 10?
Thanks so much
I’m looking for this as well. Please suggest the procedure for baseband version N900VVRSEPL1 on Android 5.0

Will other custom roms work on the G900M?

Hey guys, kinda new here so if someone has asked this question before and you guys have answered him/her, just point in the right direction.
So just like the title states i have a Samsung Galaxy S5 G900M , its rooted and its actually running Resurrection Remix 6.0.1, but when i try to look for a new rom on here, i can never find the right one, its always some other variant.
So my questions is, will they all work on G900M or do i have to look for one specifically? I didnt have this confusion when i was working on my i9500. So dont get frustrated with me.
Thanks a bunch.
JGSS
It is probably possible to run other devices Roms on your device does the g900m come bootloader unlocked or did you have to unlock the bootloader
