[Q] [HELP] rooting phone - chainfire not working

Hi guys,
I've tried the search and google multiple times, but the chainfire (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219803) method for rooting phones doesn't seem to work. I've used it successfully with my galaxy s2 in the past, but the s4 doesn't seem to work. Not sure if it's an issue with the Australian version of the device. If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be eternally grateful.
Model - GT-I9505
Android Version - 4.2.2
Baseband version I9505DVUBMG1
Kernel version
3.4.0-1029328

SELinux status - Permissive
Secure boot status - Samsung
Thanks all..
Where's the problem? What appears when u root it? or dont appears nothing? Sometimes u have to do the process 2 times for see the SuperSu app there, u will have to update your binaries then and reboot. Good luck :highfive:

No one is ignoring your post. This is not a helpdesk so sometimes it will take time for someone to anwser.
Boot into download mode. What does it say your model is?
Make sure the latest drivers are installed and any instances of Kies are not running in the background.
EDIT: From your case it looks like yours is a Sprint Galaxy S4 which has been modified to look like a i9505. In that case try to flash firmware specific to your device.

Your firmware might be corrupted, try redownloading the 4.4.2 version then update it to 5.0.2. I also guess twrp method does not work on 5.x.x firmwares on tab 4

To root on lollipop you go to ok3 root thread by Jr Kruse on xda in s5 verizon forums it is a sticky
then you may be able to bootloader unlock
by also going to bootloader unlock for kk-mm by getex it is also a sticky in the s5 verizon forum on XDA
If you want to downgrade to kitkat on your s5 after upgrading to lollipop the only way you can is to go to brens123 guide I booted ncg on PB1 bootloader it is a thread in s5 verizon general forum on xda
This is only a partial downgrade you are still on PB1 bootloader
