George Hotz did it with Towelroot
Yes it's fast, it's running a Snapdragon 801, with bloatware or not it will always be very fast

For friends, does that have to be people using Galaxy Note or any Samsung phones?

My story is supported by note, s2,s3. So only people with those phones can use it.

Unfortunately a pretty useless app.
I did not see that mentioned in the publicity.
That's always the problem with such proprietary software. If they really want mystory to be used they will have to release it for non Samsung phones too. Without support for other phones it is going to disappear sooner or later. I for example do not know one single person I can send mystory messages. I don't even know why I installed it

he doesn't own a at&t note 3 he owns a T-Mobile note 3 this is the at&t note 3 thread and the topic is root for at&t note 3 why is he commenting here? #trolling
He wasn't bashing anything in here so therefore not trolling

Hey guys we should be celebrating that we will have root...and I think is trolling if you let yourself to be troll.

If you can afford this phone and a mac, you can afford a pc. You dont need anything high end, go pick up a $300 laptop. Hell, if you look around, you can probably find something sub $300.
I have parallels which is running windows 7 but dunno if that would work?
I ran VMware on my Mac to achieve root and it worked liked a charm.

I guess I can give it a try running parallels.. I just don't want to brick my phone and have a paper weight!!

AFAIK you cannot due to ATT's locked boot loader.

Upgrading from s3 to s5

Just wanted to ask all s5 users who had the s3 before do u feel that it's worth to upgrade from s3 to s5 ,performance and features wise ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
S3 to s5 will be like winning the lottery for u.lol
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Definitely worth it.
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You have the international S3, right. I had that one.
It will be a huge step up. Battery, screen, memory, camera, stock software are much much better.

For battery alone its worth the upgrade

If you have the option, pick Snapdragon. Much more dev support and CM is coming sooner or later.
Exynos has no development at the moment...:silly:
I just upgraded from S3 to S5 last week
Still got a stupid grin on me face now
Enjoy your s5

Did we lose all the steam we had?

Now that the Note 7 has launched, have all Devs given up working on the S7/S7E? Or is it just that we're at a standstill with no progress because its impossible?
The locked bootloader killed this phone. When I got it, I convinced myself that I no longer needed custom roms...I was wrong! My enthusiasm for this phone has died, something that didn't happen with the LG G3 it replaced right up to the moment I handed it to my son. The S7E is fine, but I regret its purchase every day. I probably should move on now, but I'm not sure which direction to take. I'm certainly done with Samsung and most likely Sprint. If I wanted boring, I could have joined the zombie herd and bought an iPhone.

Yea i feel u guys, I bought a nexus 6p and I love it. I still have my S7 edge but haven't touched it for about a month straight so I may as well sell it on Craigslist.
Are there no ROMS or development on the sprint gs7 edge?

Won't work on Sprint. A couple guys got it to work by flashing tmobile firmware via Odin only to discover that they can't roll back to Sprint firmware nor downgrade tmobile

Not only did Samsung shoot themselves in the foot with the explosive note 7's but the s7 edge is amazing hardware crippled by a locked bootloader and no dev support. Samsung phones are more and more tougher to crack. While I'll never in life use an iPhone again, I'm hoping the new Nexus at least supports sprints ****ty Network and or maybe sprint will carry it.

You can still root and modify. I have my phone pretty much like I want it. The only thing that I'm really missing is 3minit battery. You have to be deodexed in order for it to work
