Use the philz method..
•Flash philz recovery
•Run the denox script
•Root it from there using supersu
•Update supersu binaries after turning your phone on
This is the safest known method which might know play with your wifi and other stuff.
And if you want to use CF-Autoroot
Go to Chainfire's thread and download your model number's root package.

I got you sir.
Try the philz method or TOWELROOT from here
Towelroot.com
CF Autoroot fails if you have not downloaded your phone's required package..
Plus if it a screen is coming like recover via KIES...flash your official firmware and try rooting with the desired package...
You shall get your root access...

This will only root the device. It won't install a custom recovery. See this http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/175

Lollipop Update for SGH-I337M
Hello guys, I rooted my Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M a few weeks ago... I have android 4.4.2 and want to update to lollipop (oficial one) but when I try to use the OTA update I get the message "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available"... Does anyone know when is going to be released the oficial update or where can I get it? I don't want to use custom ROMs that may not work or are not official.
Thank you!!

Look at sammobile.com. I see Verizon has it up but they're the only ones so far. The ota generally won't work if you're rooted. You could try unrooting in supersu then take the ota.
Edit, fido has it up too!

Thanks man... I already tried to do the unrooting using supers and didn't work
If some could post when the oficial firmware is released it will be very useful!!
I, CF-Auto rooted it with wrong model!!!
I made a mistake...
I downloaded the wrong Cf-Auto-root file for my device and then I flashed it with Odin: result
Phone is not bricked but when I run Root checker, I get this error message:
"Sorry, Root access is not properly installed on this device"
So what I did was I tried to cf auto root Odin with the proper model from chain fire website (sgh-i337m) and no luck, I still get
same error message from Root Checker.
Am I screwed or is there a way to revert everything back ?

Get supersu from the play store and install that. If it still doesn't work you may have to use Odin to flash the stick firmware and start over.

booted recovery mode, phone now unusable
Using CF-Auto-Root, I successfully rooted my phone updated to Android 5. Everything was running fine until I booted in Recovery mode just to look around (out of curiosity). I didn't select anything, only 'reboot'. When the boot sequence ends now, I can only see white alert boxes on a black background listing every apps that boots at startup accompanied with the phrase 'has stopped working'.
sounds as if you have an error either in the absence of a custom recovery or the kernal. Pull the battery, wait 30 seconds at least. Go into download mode, use Odin to reflash the stock Bell OC4 firmware but leave auto-boot unchecked -- wait until Odin goes green and says pass -- this can be quite a wait. Pull the battery. Restart the phone. Don't be surprised if it goes into stock recovery on first boot -- let the phone do its thing to get itself sorted. Set the phone up in stock mode first.
Then go back into Odin, flash a custom recovery and install SuperSu using a zip file flash from within that custom recovery.
I thought CF-Auto-Root was to blame but it's actually the CyanogenMod auto-installer. I thought it failed cleanly and nothing was pushed to my phone, but I was wrong. Thanks!
pit partition
I everyone, I tried to unroot my canadian s4 and now bricked it and stuck in the downloading screen. when trying odin, I get the "there is no PIT partition". How do I fix that please?
there are general instructions posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477 you will need the PIT file specific to your model of S4 and the correct firmware rather than the files listed in that guide if your model is not the 9505 i.e. if it is i337 or i337m -- make sure you download the correct PIT and firmware files for your model first then follow the instructions in that guide using the appropriate files for your phone
Actually I found a video on youtube and contacted the guy on twitter. he suggested changing out the port and cable. i also switched to a win 7 computer vs. win 8 and using official samsung usb cables and was able to unroot and also update to lollipop.
Hello , I'm seriously in need of your help. I bought this samsung galaxy s4 (gt-19500) just yesterday. it was running on android version 5.0.1, unrooted. i was able to root with kingo root pc. i then tried to replace the the kingo superuser with supersu by downloading android terminal and running the commands ( su, sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh). after that i was prompted to update supersu binaries. it took like 10 minutes but still couldn't update so i restarted my phone. the phone got into boot loop. I've tried updating firmware with both kies and kies 3 but they tell me to check device model after ive input it correctly ( GT-19500 or SHC-1545). Ive tried using odin but still to no avail. i downloaded twrp recovery for gt 19500 from galaxys4root.com. when i select the .tar file , odin hungs and never responds again. ive downloadd other cmw files from other websites but whenever i try flashing them with odin it fails by saying "fail (auth). ive tried abd sideload and i get "e: signature verification failed..). i tried and s4 lolipop rom on xda forumss but while flashing with odin , it fails and my phone displays "unsupported device type". please help me . i bought phone just yesterday. I'm now stock recovery.
Hi,
Could you boot into download mode and see what's device model you're using?

I've tried every recomended root without pc app for my 19505 s4 on 5.0.1. I've rooted a few phones, so i know about the settings to use, but nothing is working. Also tried knox disabler with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks.
check cf auto root

You can also flash twrp with Odin and flash supersu with twrp.
Hey,
I wanted to root my Galaxy S4 i9505 using CF-auto root. I cheked the version of my s4 i9505 which was i9505xxuhoj2, then go to https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ find my device model and exact same build (i9505xxuhoj2). I generated cf auto root file, boot phone in bootloader mode, unzip file and used odin (which was in that zip file too) to flash this generated file (using AP). Odin gives me FAIL and I cant boot my phone normally because of error during start (firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies).
So I flashed stock firmware (using Odin) with another build. This time i9505xxupqg1. Everything went well my S4 was running normally. So i decided repeated the procedure. Go to https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ and genereate cf auto file (this time for build i9505xxupqg1). I flashed the cf auto root file using odin and again it gives me FAIL.
Below screen of that FAIL:

Can anyone help me with this?
Why this is happening ?
Cheers
Flash back to stock, flash twrp, flash supersu from twrp.
Thanks for reply.
I did this earlier what you said and everything was OK.
I had TWRP and Root using SU.
The problem isnt rooting itself.
The point is i wanted to tested rooting with CF-AutoRoot method.
And I'm wondering what am I doing wrong.
I did everyting correctly (exact same device model and build version) and ODIN gives me FAIL like i said above.
If Odin is failing, try a different version of Odin, a different USB cable, and different USB port.
I got the same problem with a Sprint Note Edge that I tried to root the same way. I'm currently downloading the stock firmware from sammobile.com to flash a stock ROM.

Hello
You do not need to generate a CF-AutoRoute, just google and download the original CF-AutoRoute.zip which roots ALL versions of the device, the baseband does not matter.
Ensure debugging is enabled
Place device into recovery (download)
Add device to Odin
Unzip the file, add the .md5 file to Odin and flash, job done.
