[Q] Looking for Root for Lollipop

I have an AT&T Galaxy S4 SGH-I337. I was so excited about the update to lollipop that I un-rooted my phone and downloaded it as soon as I could. I am enjoying it, but I miss root access. Has anyone come up with a way gain root access with this new update? I know with the 4.4.4 update we could flash the old kernel and use towel root, any chance something like that would work for this version?
If this is being dealt with in another thread I apologize, I did look.
Try TowelRoot APK https://towelroot.com/

Please hit the thanks button if it worked
I'm interested in knowing how it turns out for you if you try towelroot. I got the lolipop update on my tab, and I'm liking it. However, I like having root so I haven't plunged in with my S4 yet, been doing some reading first.

Towle Root hasn't worked for the last few at&t updates. It's awesome but outdated.
Odin back to nb1, then root, then follow the instructions listed here.http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-to-update-to-i337oc3-5-0-1-keeproot-t3075814

Galaxy S4 4.4.2- Available Root Methods?

Need root help
I have a new unlock ATT Galaxy S 4 And would like to root it. ( don't care about warranty) I want to get rid of the "caned apps". Stock rom is fine just need an easy method.
Samsung SGH-I337ZKAATT, KitKat 4.4.2, Kernel 3.4.0-505595, build number KOT49H.I337UCUFNB1
I hope this is enough information​
on NB1, you should be able to root with TowelRoot. See Odin to Stock, Updating, Rooting, and Safestrap Guide post #2, section 2 HOW TO GET TO ANY KITKAT 4.4.2 (NB1, NC1, NI1) OR 4.4.4 (NJ4, NJ5) BASE, Step 3 Root and Install Safestrap. Everything you need is there. Essentially, flash NC1 kernel, root, flash NB1 kernel. Follow the directions.

If I use TowerRoot Do I still have to use Odin?

Yes. You use Odin to flash the NC1 kernel in order to root with TowelRoot, and then you use Odin to flash back the NB1 kernel so your NB1 system will boot. Please read the guide. The instructions are all there.
I found my easy method and rooted my Samsung SGH-I337ZKAATT, KitKat 4.4.2, Kernel 3.4.0-505595, build number KOT49H.I337UCUFNB1 phone. You can search web for " Root I337UCUFNB1 AT&T Galaxy S4 4.4.2 KitKat Firmware Without Tripping KNOX counter". Afterwards I installed Titanium Backup just to see if it would work and it did. ( I got SuperSU .apk from it's website not the play store and ran it from my SD card.)

Currently you cannot root it with cf-root but you can root it through chainfire supersu.
How?
