[Q] Noob Root/Rom Query

Hi All,
I'm a noob here so please be gentle!
I have bought a brand new Galaxy S4 (I9505 Baseband is I9505XXUBMEA)
I am looking to install the Google Play Edition ROM on my phone but so far have failed to root the device.
I am using a Macbook Air, so I am looking for methods using OSX. I have tried using motochopper but this failed, possibly because I have an updated firmware on the phone.
Any help, advice or links would be greatly appreciated (mostly as I can't stand touchwiz!)
I want to root, install CWM Recovery, and flash Google Play Edition. Sound deceptively simple!
Thanks
Noel

Adroid update

Hi, I have Note 4 910-F with Android Kitkat. I dont know how to update it to Lollipop or Marshmallow. Can anybody help me out ?

Don't do it. Please. Don't you see how many people regret these updates? After yelling about it, now they are prisoners of these stupid updates.

you can simply use the OTA updates if it's unrooted
and if you're rooted you can flash bootloader + modem + rom and be done :good:
