This may be a dumb question, but I swear I can't find an answer specifically to my situation anywhere, maybe I'm blind or my Google foo is weak today. I just got the phone and of course like a giddy child I updated as soon as I got it -_- seems like I may have screwed myself over though.
Thanks ahead of time for any help someone can give me.
I haven't seen any root methods for Lollipop yet, but what you CAN do is go back to an earlier version, root it there, and flash a 5.0 ROM.
This is the ROM I'm using. Instructions in the OP.

How do I go back to an earlier version? Also what version should I downgrade to 4.4.2 or 4.4.4?

There is a lot terms I don't know in the link. like what is NK2 or OA8? Also do I need to use that rom or can I use a different one? Sorry for the noob questions. I like to be as well informed about this type of stuff before I do it instead of just blindly doing instructions. I just want to make sure this instructions will work for me (I have the right model, it works on lollipop, right build, etc). I just got the phone and it would be very bad for me to brick it.
Thanks for the help so far though.

Another question, if I downgrade by flashing, for example I think this is the file I need:
G900VVRU1ANK2_G900VVZW1ANK2_G900VVRU1ANK2_HOME.tar.zip
Do I also need the NK2 and NGC kernel as well to root? The guide in the link mentioned about mentions downloading the NK2 kernal, but the instructions never mention what to do with it. I am also assuming that
NK2 Full Stock Odin Tar = G900VVRU1ANK2_G900VVZW1ANK2_G900VVRU1ANK2_HOME.tar.zip
Lastly will any of the trip knox?

Your best bet is to start over by flashing the stock MF3 files using ODIN. From there, re-root your phone, reinstall SafeStrap, and try again. You most likely flashed a non-TW based ROM... remember only TW roms work with SS right now.
If you have any other questions, I'll try to explain it in more detail.

First off, download ODIN 1.85 it seems to be the one that most people have the best luck with.
Grab the MF3 TAR files
Extract the MF3 files to a folder, say on your desktop. ie. MF3
Open ODIN and refer to this picture...

Yeah I did do that. No one actually explains what to download and how to use it. You would had thought that I didn't try. I did use odin and flashed cwm and expected it to work, guess what it didn't. Upon entering recovery a error popped out and I was welcomed by the samsung recovery page. Hence i'm here looking for a way to root and get superuser that actually works.

You see, there are very well explained and , yes, they worked!
Well I followed the guide posted here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2529064
Got myself a clockwork from here : http://www.filefactory.com/file/5wsoycfxn7i5/CWM_6.0.4.6_Non-Touch_GT-I9506.tar
Flashed it via odin. Was hoping that it would finally work, but bam. Got an error again.
Any help at this point would be appreciated.
Cheers.
You didnt flashed the right version, its 6.0.4.8, and you didnt unchecked auto reboot. So, you didnt do it how the guide says.
Hello
I'm searching for knox 0x0 root method.
So far I've trayed towelroot and flashing older kernel and then rooting with towelroot, but 4.4.2 is not booting on stock 4.3 kernel so I'm in dead end.
Any other methods?

Once updated to 4.4.2, you cannot downgrade to 4.3! You can only use Auto root from DeHwak thread. Towelroot doesnt work on 4.4.2 on i9506! There is no root option for i9506 without tripping knox!
Well, on some phones, you can downgrade easly. For example you can do it on s4 mini. It has 4.3 Brazilian firmware with new knox 2.0 bootloader.

Use autoroot from DeHawk post, He modified Chainfire autorrot to work on I9506. He also made it available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2597058 in the end of first Post.
This Autorrot will trigger knox flag (works on 4.4.2) but if you don't care about it, go ahead and you will be Rooted. Don't forget to give him a thanks

got it working thanks.
I am buying a new S4. Apparently it comes with 4.2x on it. So, should I root it from there or upgrade to 4.4.2 official? I was thinking if I did it from 4.2, I'd avoid the knox issue and then upgrade to a custom ROM later and still not have a knox problem.... or I am way off base?
Is there something new in root on 4.4.2 subject? I still want my knox status to be 0x0...

I was thinking about cyanogenmod, or pure nexus. Any thoughts? I want to have a nearly pure android experience but still look good without bloatware.
Pure Nexus looked like it fit the description but the method of flashing looked like it might limit my future options.
Thoughts?

Well you won't be able to flash cm. Pure nexus is great but yes also limited with not having a stable Dev for the ROM anymore. I actually flashed GoldFinger shortly after the pn Dev switched phones and I like it a lot. Tons of room for customization since it still has Samsung features (coming from a person that doesn't favor touchwiz). Here's a preview

Cm requires cwm/twrp. These recoveries are only accessible for using of the MDL boot loader, which is the original s4. Upgrades after that are stuck with safe strap and we can't downgrade that far. [emoji24]
Oh wow. So they have an Apple-like situation going on? So I should only look at safestrap roms?

Yep yep. All compatible Roms for us will be in the all things general thread.
So at this point I am wondering is there any roms highly favored over the rest? I'm going to look them all over but I want to hear some thoughts in here.
Also after following that rooting guide, can I simply install safestrap from my phone or do I need to flash the nc1 kernel and reroot again?
@iB4STiD is a pretty favored Dev around here it seems so all of his Roms are a pretty good bet. I haven't tried GoldenEye but I love GoldFinger because it has the touchwiz of s5. Older versions I cant hang with. @Joe-Tech is also great but he has an s5 now but I saw that he's still trying to put out builds, mainly for pure nexus so there's still some hope for that ROM.
And how about safestrap? Can it be installed on rooted nj4 or do you need to install it on nc1 first?
So while on nj4, if thats the base youre on, you'll need to be using the nc1 kernel (flashed with Odin 3.09). Which I assume you're on since you're rooted. While still on the nc1 kernel you'll flash safe strap, v3.75 b01. All of these files are in the Odin to stock thread in general in the spoiler under nj4 rooted with ss. After you have ss installed then you Odin the nj4 kernel back onto the phone.
Is that kernel ver correct?
Hmm I'm not sure. What method did you do for upgrading?
Flashed with odin
Okay if you don't recall flashing the nj4 kernel after successfully rooting on the nc1 kernel, you should still be on it. So download busy box from the play store, and install it from within the app. After make sure you have the ss 3.72 b01 apk on your phone then install that. Then you can put the nj4 kernel back on your phone with Odin. If you don't remember, flash the nc1 kernel anyway in Odin.
After all that you can flash Roms in ss. Make sure you have the nj4 modules and a download of SuperSU (to make sure you dont lose root) on your phone to flash. Only use the stock slot.
Oh and if the ss app disappears from your drawer, just install the app again from your phone.
The guide has you flash back to nj4 after you towelroot in nc1, I'm guessing I need to flash back to nc1 then install that?

No the guide is for if you're on nc1. If you were on nc1 and used Odin to get to nj4, it only sounds like you didn't complete the rest of the steps.
The Odin method has you flash the nj4 ROM and then the nc1 kernel because the nj4 kernel can't be rooted. That's why after you successfully root and get ss, you can flash the nj4 kernel. But before that you have to install SuperSU to make sure you keep root.
I followed the steps to a t and got root with the method I linked to in the original post.
Bootloader readout.
So if you're only without safe strap, get busy box from the play store and install fully. Then the correct version of safe strap just because its stable, and you should be in business to flash compatible Roms.
Hi Folks
My partner has just got the S5 Active and she loves it..
But now she would like to update from 4.4.2.. Phone says she has latest rom so my questions are this
1)What is the latest official rom for the Active?
2)Whats the BEST root method?
3)What Custom roms are suitable?
3)Finally what is the best route to take to flash a CUSTOM rom?
looking forward to your responses
regards
Lohtse
1) Here you can find the latest TW stock rom:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Android Lollipop is available for the S5 Active. You can download the latest Firmware and flash it via Odin. You don't need root for that.
2) My preferred root method is flashing CF auto root via Odin. After that I install another recovery like TWRP
3) Nobody can answer that. Try and find it out (perform a full wipe incl cache before you install a custom rom)
4) This steps: root, recovery, full wipe, custom rom, and at least if you want and need that: custom kernel

finally got it sorted after reading around 9-10 different guides... all of which had little bits missing
now she's a happy bunny with LP on her Active and I'm a tired old fart with droopy eyes!!!!!
Just need a custom recovery now!!
Congratulations! How you solved it?
Yeah recovery is the same problem. It exists no recovery for the G870A
Two things that I found that allowed me to sort the Active which was mentioned
firstly to allow Flashfire to work you had too set clock back past 1/15/15
and you had to also set flashfire to boot into download to allow you to flash the G870A_OC5_Bootloader.tar.md5 file via Odin on the pc.. once I did these it worked...
Just depends which guide you read to find a COMPLETE one....
Damn that sounds very tricky

Not really just no two guides the same.... soon as I noticed the minor differences it was easy.
1) root with towel root copy stock LP(rooted version)
2) Install and set date to 1/1/15 then open Flashfire
3)Flash Stock rooted LP using flashfire making sure you have flashfire set to boot to download when finished
4) open Odin PC and connect S5Active
5)Point Opins AP slot to location of the G870A_OC5_Bootloader.tar.md5 file
6) Flash and reboot and your done...
MAJOR issue was the flashfire issue once found issue and set it as stated above I was Up and running after 10minutes Just had spent 4 hours failing before I notice and figured out what the issues was...
Simple really.... Well it was in the end lol
I recently decided to unroot my Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 from AT&T using the methods and the downloads from this website here: http://www.androidrootz.com/2014/03/...xy-s4-sgh.html
Now, when I turn my phone on, neither my WiFi or my mobile data will work, and if I try to turn my WiFi on, I get a popup from Security Information that says "This device has detected an application attempting to perform actions that are not permitted. These actions have been blocked.
I've tried pulling out the battery, I've tried turning WiFi power save off from the dialer menu, but neither one has worked. Not to mention my device is so old now it's probably out of warranty. I'm not really sure what to do from here.

The unroot app probably screwed up your kernel. To unroot your phone you do not need another app. You can do full unroot from the SuperSU setting.
Please tell us your phone android version, Bootloader version, baseband version , etc..
Please backup everything. You might need to flash just a kernel or just a modem or full rom or full firmware.
I'm running 4.3, I believe my bootloader is I337UCUEMK2, the baseband is I337UCUFNB1. Do you need to know the kernel version?

If I knew the kernel it would help. You have jelly bean bootloader with kitkat modem. It appears that your kernel and modem are not communicating after the unroot.
It could be fixed by flashing the kernel and if it is not work or it would give you the softbrick, you might need to flash the whole firmware.
There is MK2 firmware on this forum. However, yesterday I was helping someone who has the same problem as you do and the MK2 firmware did not work. He had finally to flash the NB1 firmware to work again.

It could be fixed by flashing the kernel and if it is not work or it would give you the softbrick, you might need to flash the whole firmware.
There is MK2 firmware on this forum. However, yesterday I was helping someone who has the same problem as you do and the MK2 firmware did not work. He had finally to flash the NB1 firmware to work again.

That is exactly what happened to the another person that I mentioned in my previous post. If you go read that thread you will see it.
You and him has the almost the same problem and I think you will need the same solution.
I could copy and paste what I said from that thread. But please go and read that thread and follow the instructions that I posted there.
If that is not solved your problem we will think of another route.
