Does this method work for N7105? IF it does, please include the relevant recovery or if not you should change the title so that it reads for N7100 only.

Then please add on the OP that dis method wil trip knox trigger. Sum newbies might try this method on their new fones, without knowing.
So basically this method is for those people who dont care bout the warranty or those who hv completed their warranty.

its due to roms you flashed.....or rom problem.....you have to factory reset from your phone .....to fix it

Rooting is not the same as a carrier unlock. Your device will still be locked to ATT.

Can I install custom rom after this?

Hey everyone, my new Galaxy S5 G900I won't root using Odin. I've tried repeatedly. Using the CF Auto Root Method and the install Custom Recovery first then flash superuser method and both methods have the same outcome.
This is the how it comes up on Odin:

I have all the drivers installed, the Samsung USB Driver and I haven't tried adb because I used Odin to root my S4 before on the same computer but the S5 won't work.

I've been having exactly the same problem....

I FOUND A FIX AND IT WAS SO SIMPLE :laugh::laugh:
For anyone else having this annoying problem theres a simple fix.
1. Goto settings
2. Settings > Security
3. Ensure that "REACTIVATION LOCK" is UNCHECKED
4. Try to root again using Odin and hopefully it works for you :fingers-crossed:

The v1 appears long gone from geohot's own site and I haven't seen first hand checksum mentioned anywhere (anyone?) but this matches the common version making rounds second-hand.

i use version 1 and it is ok for rooting my device although it rebooted after pushing let it rain
thanks

tried installing it, says problem parsing the package. any ideas?

Wa-hoo!!! Thank you so much! I would click "Thank you" a hundred times if I could!! This modstring was the magic that finally rooted my device! Thank you!

I have Grand 2 also. So, I will download Towelroot v1. apk, install it, click Make it rain then reboot; install superuser 2.0? My device will be rooted, Is it correct?
Do anything else?
Thank you.

Wouldn't that method put knox to 0x1? Or am I mistaken. And couldn't he try using towelroot, depending on the version hes on?

He doesn't have a Verizon phone. He has an international model or at least that is what he listed. Not everyone can go up and down firmwares like we can.
You are right though. He could try towelroot first.

The full instructions here should help. The only difference is that you need the kernel/firmware for your specific s5 version.

Your questions would be safer answered by someone on the Galaxy S5 international forum but I found a couple of things. Use with caution as I don't know anything about your device.
Here is a link on how to upgrade to lollipop if you are interested. Also, this custom recovery (CWM) was in the same link. I believe you might have an unlocked boot loader so you are way better off than we are.
I also found this:
Backup device
Quote:
Step 1. Boot into recovery(hold the menu button and volume up button all together simultaneously until the device reboots)
Step 2. Select the backup button and confirm backup
