Samsung Galaxy S4 - Hardware Hacking General

Hi everybody can u help me..?
I would like to root my phone Samsung Galaxy S4, but I do not know how to do it. Rather the Internet is a lot of practice, but I'd rather not give you advice from the best plus the best ROM .. they use.
Thank you in advance what they give me all functions of the Council.

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

Help unlocking Buddy's note

If I root it and use chainfires cf auto root or w.e thru Odin to install a recovery will he be good to go...will it unlock the bootloader or will I send it into a security error by flashing clockwork

You will most likely brick it. Use Hash code's safestrap in development section
With safestrap tho can't you only flash stock ROMs?

Correct, our VZW specific Note 3 has a locked bootloader so we can't modify it aside from the stock .tar file via Odin
You want to use this method to apply the MJE update before doing anything else
Then root via Kingo, have to google it
Then install Safestrap, open it, select install recovery
Profit
Lol good luck let us know if you run into issues it's not too rough
OK thanks..man that sucks that the boot loader hasn't been unlocked yet

If he wants the full root experience, at this time his best option might be to return the phone for something else if he is within his 14-day period.
I'm not sure what else though ... The N3 is a great device. My understanding is that the camera on the HTC One isn't great, and I'm not sure what the root situation on the LG device is, nor how much developer love it will get over time.
Maybe he should leave Big Red for a different carrier... making sure they know exactly why on the way out the door.
Haha yeah thats what i said I have T-Mobile s4 and had mine hacked in 5 mins with a custom ROM on it

Using I337 S4 rooted unable to install safestrap unable to parse issues. Any help
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ok everything worked good untill the custom rom flash.. It wouldn't leave the galaxy s4 screen.. So I had to re Odin the Damn thing because it didn't load safestrap anymore.. We'll. Odin failed for 2 Damn hours but after many failed attempts it finally got me back to NB1.. Then I refreshed NC1, installed towelroot and superuser and safestrap and changed to permissive.. Tried flashing a different rom (deadly venom) and every time I try to load it it just loads the normal firmware but on the custom slot.. So I'm not sure if I did anything wrong or if I should try a 3rd rom

I got golden eye to work on the main slot I think.. It's says that it's the build but it looks stock
Edit: after reviewing the goldeneye page.. It says stock look and feel so I'm assuming it's working..

How can I install a custom recovery on n9005 stock without using a PC?

Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
Need root. To root without a pc try towel root. Not sure if any other work. After root seach in twrp page how to flash recovery using terminal emulator
"This phone isn't currently supported" - Towel root
I think Tr supports only Exynos Note 3... not n9005. I also tried Framaroot and that didn't work also.

You need a pc for root
Well I don't have a PC. There should be a PC-free way...

Then you go ahead and make one, buddy. I'm sure the community will thank you for it.
If I knew how to make it I wouldn't be standing here asking these questions.
