Hey guys, is the latest Lollipop firmware , BOA (UK) rootable? I tried and I always get a fail message. I tried CF Autoroot and failed. I tried the second method , the one implying flashing a custom recovery first and then installing the root, but also failed. Anyone managed? I searched but nor found a thread about it.

To answer your question, yes you can root it by flashing SuperSU beta here.

Hi
First of, I just signed up to this forum. I looked around for rooting, and only found the AT&T and so on versions.
If this is the wrong forum i'm sorry and please guide me to the right thanks.
I just brought the Phone and read about Towelroot on this page, but it don't work, as I updated my phone, before I learned about Towelroot.
So is their an way I can downgrade it or is their other ways to root it?
Thanks in advance

Hi, After successfully adding cwm and installing a custom android (JFLTE-GPE-20150128) I am now stuck using lollipop only roms. I have tried finding a solution reading through diffent threads and I'm completely at a loss to fix the problem.
I have tried using odin to install offical kitkat firmware Australia (XSA) and that lead to a FAIL.
Sorry, I'm sure there is a thread about this already but I cannot seem to find it.
PHONE IS: i9505
Apparently you can't go back to kitkat if you are on lollipop.
You are now condemned to stay with Lollipop,impossible to revert back

Hi,
My cousin owns a Galaxy s4 i9505 LTE and he wanted to root it. Since i was using custom rom on my S3 i9300, He asked me to root his phone and i told him that the knox security will mess things up. Anyway i rooted it with CF Autoroot and root was successful but the phone started restaring periodically and he wanted me to restore it back to stock rom (Unroot). He bought it from UAE and the build version was I9505XXUGNH8. Since we didn't find any firmware for UAE from sammy site, he searched the google and found a link (samfirmware) and downloaded the firmware. Then i flashed it via odin. All is good.
Now he want to root it again but the SElinux status says Enforced. Tried towel root,kingoroot and other stuffs.. No hope. The Knox says 0x0 and knox void is 0x1. Android version is 4.4.2. please help me to root this phone.
Thanks in advance...
Use cf auto root. It's the only root method that works.
Afterwards make sure to delete everything knox related. There are plenty of guides out here that tell what to delete.
Thanks for the help.. and if you don't mind, can you please tell me where to find those threads about deleting knoz files and what should i do to get a custom recovery in i9505?????

Use twrp > supersu....zip flash method. I almost sure autoroot method doesn't work in marshmallow
