sm-900W8 Rogers 5.0 root

Hi, im wondering if anyone can help?
i have a rogers s5 900w8 on 4.4.2 rooted with towel root. i want to go to stock rogers 5.0 that just came out and root. im not concerned about tripping the counter if i can prevent that it would be nice.
my plan was to download the firmware and flash with odin since the ota will not work but i cant seem to find clear instructions on how to root 5.0.

Hi I'm on Telus g900w8 I had stock awhile ago. And then was on omega ROM after I rooted for months. I originally rooted using chainfires autoroot. I believe in superuser I just unrooted then flashed back to stock kitkat. Then once you download the the new version of stock and flash it will be back to normal. Then from there you just have to re root would be my guess.
I'm currently on Cyanogen mod 12 in the unified android development for the past month and its the Lollipop version. I prefer it over the Omega just because of lollipop seems smoother too. For our model you would use the gsm version (if you wanted to try it out). And I just used the stock kernel.
I had rooted my g900w8 about a month after I got it and tripped the Knox counter.
Hope this helps.

[Q] SM-G900W8 Rogers root on Lollipop? Don't care if knox is tripped.

Upgraded to the stock 5.0 from CM12 on my G900W8 and have been searching for a root but haven't really found much other then the CF-Auto Root for the G900F variant. Is there a way to root the canadian variant on stock firmware?

Anyone pleasseee

help to root SG SM-N910L lollipop 5.1.1

help to root SG SM-N910L lollipop 5.1.1​

help
some help ..??

wanna know also

No root available for SM-N910L running 5.1.1. yet. Samsung has updated Android 5.1.1 with root block and the only way to get around it is to install custom kernel. There are available custom kernel for Note 4 but not the model SM-N910L. I will try to downgrade to 5.0.1. and see what happens... If you force it with root script not made for this model, you will be stuck in bootloop forever! aka soft brick....

5.1.1
All I have to say is NOTE 4 sucks with 5.1.1. We can't downgrade or root. worst than a bootloop

any solution to root 910L 5.1.1?

in other threads whenever someone was mentioning custom kernels for 910c/f/g they suggested talextop and suemax kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=429310591)
on the first post for those kernel i didn't read anywhere specifically that 910L would be supported.
some still suggested it in the posts though.
As I'm 5.1.1 also and just saw a massive 1197MB update available I can only assume it's the 6.0
As some with 910C said they succeded with rooting at the end of the above thread: is it worth trying the upgrade to later have better chances on root? Or has there any method been found for 910L 5.1.1 root?

CF auto root should have worked! Anyway, flash TWRP via Odin, then flash latest SuperSU from TWRP.

Exactly. Do that and you're done! [emoji1]

if you failed rooting note 4 using CF autoroot, then you must have done something wrong.
follow the instruction exactly to the letter.
I've rooted my 910H (stock 6.0.1) 3 times without any problem.
