Hi,
I just bought the sm g901f (same as the g900f but with a snapdragon 805). I wanted to root it but I don't know if towelroot is available for my device.
Do you think I can root it with having the know counter at 1?
I tried with modstring : "1337 0 1 7380 4 0"
But the app seems to be freezing
Does anybody knows how to fix it?
try autoroot, should work, there's a thread about that here also
yes but the thing with autoroot is that it will increse the knox counter. I don't want that...
I'd assume that because the device is so new, that the kernel used is one from after June 3rd which means that the exploit used in towelroot doesn't work anymore. But thats just an educated guess
thanks! i know now.
Does anybody know if geohot keeps his tools updated?
no, he works for google now
Hi : )
Any news about towleroot on g901f ?
Or any other solution that allows rooting g901f without having knox at 0x1 ?
Thanks
No,
i will not work.
The exploit,towelroot uses, was closed later on.
The S5 (plus / A version) does not have this exploit. Fact.
There is no chance of getting 0x0 with root for the S5 + versions.
only cf autoroot will work for g901f and your knox will be 0x1
Thanks for your answers guys.
CFAutoroot applied a long time ago ^^
I have done some surfing, and found out that ping pong root is successfully unrooting the S6 without tripping KNOX... so logic tells me that it should work for the G901, but unfortunately ping pong root has to add our model to their list before we can try it.
Hi Guys im just going to buy S5 SM-G900H Exynos Model in india on sunday and is confirmed
this will be my first flagship device and i see the forums is quite messy to me cus i had many low end device like galaxy pocket,galaxy y,quattro etc before and only one model exist but here you can see I,F,H bla bla model exist so for me not easy to digest at the moment
i searched forums and took look as well
so to be clear i want to ask
How to root as guys suggested towelroot ,some says it didnot work on SM-G900H model ? and i went on towelroot site and click download it open Encoding stuff when click on LAMDA sign to download but doesnot download https://towelroot.com/tr.apk but i can try another third party sites

Hello,
I have a note 4 [N910C] running the official 5.0.1 Lollipop (rooted).
I need to change the SElinux status from Enforcing to Permissive.
Is there anyway to do that ?
through the Terminal emulator or if there is a custom kernel does that ?
or flashing some zip file ?
and by the way i need to turn of knox.
Anyone could help plz?
and sorry for any bad English .
Got Any Help?
Hello everyone, i need your help, about my phone problem, it keeps boot looping after i change stock rom to custom rom, maybe because of the knox problem in download mode. My knox warranty now is equal to 1. Did anyone of you know how to fix this problem?
There is no way (till now) to zero knox
but you can back to stock and get OTA update
I just rooted my samsung A3 320FL and tripped knox. iam just curious is there any way to develop a superstock kernel like S7 have so rooted devices can regain features like android pay and secure folder.?
