Yes, you will be able to flash TWRP with Odin after getting root. Exactly the same procedure as rooting (read Chainfire's instructions), only instead of CF-Auto-Root-kltetmo-kltetmo-smg900t.tar.md5 file used for rooting, you will need to grab recovery.tar.md5 from the TWRP's thread.
Thanks !

Hey guys im having a problem rooting my new s4 (i9505) using cfroot by chainfire .i did follow everything but i still having an issue. Is there any solution for this on how to do it easy? Thanks guys n i was running XXUBMF8 stock official and then downloaded official xxbmga on sammobile and still cant root it tho.
Flash your new MGA with Odin.
After use the CF-Root of chainfire flash it.
You should look if the chainfire is compatible with your device
Well I'm on Omega rom. I do not need to use Chainfire for root the phone because the Rom is already rooted.

Hi Guys
I know there are several threads out there explaining how to root a Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 .
I have followed most of them (Cofface and PhilZ Touch) but none of these seem to work for me .
I used odin and flased the CWM and i get PASS . The phone reboots , but i do not have root/su.
Please help.
I read somewhere that it is not possible to root the galaxy S4 with the latest firmware .
Details Of my Phone :
Model Number : GT-I9500 (Bought in INDIA)
Android Version : 4.2.2 STOCK
BaseBand Version : I9500DDUBMF8
Kernel Version :
3.4.5-1133023
[email protected]#1
Build Number : JDQ39.I9500XWUBMG5
Please do help me out.

Hi
I did reboot into CWM but i do not have the option root my phone .
@ jaiDev if i use Autoroot by chainfire , will this install a custom recovery . I want to flash a custom rom later on .
So i need a recovery along with root
U have cwm and I guess u have root just check with root checker
Sent from my GT-I9500
No CF root will not install a custom recovery. It will only root your phone. Just go ahead and use it.
Ok ill try being more clear .
I used CWM and philz touch , to falsh a custom recovery (This also roots your phone) as Per the post .
So i get root + recovery (To back up my rom / flash a new rom).
When i used ODIN to acheive this i get a PASS message . and as per the tutorial i should boot into recovery ( volUp + home + power) and here i should find a option ROOT MY PHONE .( I Do not have this option)
I did use titaniumBackup / root checker to check if root was successful , but it shows that my phone is not rooted .
Basically i want to ROOT and have a custom recovery .
I read the post by chainFire it looks like by using CF-AutoRoot i will only be able to root my phone .
I will have to flash a custom recovery using ODIN Again ( For me to get CWM )
For now i will try ChainFire to root and let you guys know Please let me know if i am still not clear.
I would suggest u post this problem from where u downloaded rooting ur device more than once or just rooting for no reason can harm it.Do not flash anything until someone from that thread tells u.Sometimes its a glitch so wait for the author of that thread or someone else to reply to ur question.
Hey guys , Good News
My phone is finally rooted , used chainFire . Simple and quick
Next step is flashing a CWM . Can some one help me out .
For GT-I9500 after rooting using chainFire , how can i install CWM ?
Thanks A lot

Our phone is newly launched, i guess 3 months back.
And there is just a single custom rom which you will find in the Android Dev Section developed by bailiboxer.
known as GenNxt ROM based on latest C1 firmware.
Right now you will not find any other custom roms available for grand 2, because it is not yet built.
Just keep checking the Android Dev section of Grand 2 on xda for more updates.
Hope it helped :good:
The Custom Rom is make my phone cant wifi and the internet stopped issue.... so....any suggestion for me??

You can root your phone If you want . Just flash custom recovery via odin and then flash root.zip from recovery . I rooted my father's phone . Note II GT-N7100 without any issue . And now I also have a custom rom installed on it which is the DN3 Rom . But my father doesn't know about it . I said him that it is 4.4.2 official update . And as my mother's grand 1 is concerned it is rooted and I dont want to install any custom rom on it bcoz I don't think that there is any rom existing right now which is good . I'm waiting and hoping that a kitkat touchwiz rom will be soon out there for Grand 1 .
Don't forget to press thanks If I helped you in anyway

Not at all! I rooted my Grand 2 with CF root tool and didn't experienced any issues. All SIM card slots and Wi-Fi is working properly.
Try to "Forget Wifi Network" and connect it again....and dont make it manual....make it DHCP / Auto....
I have gt i9300i samsung galaxy s3 neo dual sim kitkat 444
I tried king root but always says failed root but i got root access and the app installed and purify too installed
But after reboot my phone it is boot loop and restarts after few minutes of loading android normally
Hardly i could uninstall king root but now i have a custom recovery cwm 6.5.1 by rox and i flashed it through odin
But no root access now
How can i solve thus problem and root my device correctly as i know its due too incorrect rooting by kingroot
Please reply me quickly
Thnx
Download official firmware from sammobile.com and flash it via Odin. To root I recommend you using CF-AutoRoot from ChainFire. I don't know if it's compatible with the dual sim version (GT-I9300I), but with my single sim (GT-I9301I) it worked like a charm

Thnx bro.
But i wanna keep my Rom and its data
I couldnt do a nandroid backup or titanium backup to my rom and data
If you have a bootloop I think you have no other way out. Sorry, bro.
