so for those who don't want to use the current risky method of root there is this app that allows temp root.if properly used you can temp root your moto x running 4.4.4 its root via app as you can see exposed works just fine so does titanium back up and other non kernel related root apps
my bootloader is locked and I'm on 4.4.4 I'm not comfortable bricking my phone using risky methods and until full root or bootloader unlock is achieved this will be my goto I hope this will help some of you get a small fix of root
it takes some getting used to but temp root even allows gravity box and even x teather

sadly no that was my main goal I've been seeing if I can do other things to trick my system into making the apps work together but I'm no root master
I don't know why more people aren't talking about this and working on it. The brick your device and flash rooted version isn't appealing to me at this point. I updated my device to 4.4.4 like 2 days before they announced that Jcase had found an exploit. This method makes me a little nervous because not many people are talking about it. I just want to be able to tether my phone on Verizon with my unlimited data. I am worried about if they install something and steal your data from your phone.

I did the towelroot on my S5 sprint phone. also, used the root checker, and said it was successful.
my question is, is this a true root? can i install roms? what is the best recovery to use?
Is there instructions out there, on how to get a recovery installed after doing towel root?
If i havent done the true, full root, how much further do i need to go, in order to start flashing roms?
Is there a true, Google Play edition rom out there for this phone?

It is a true root, but just remember you still have a locked bootloader, so you can not flash custom roms, recoveries or kernels that are not based off of TouchWiz (essentially limited to stuff built ontop of TouchWiz).
Once the bootloader is unlocked then you can do all of that.
GPE version of the phone is still a rumor, but they released the S4 GPE version around this time...
Thanks for that information.. since i dont have the bootloader unlocked, i really cant do anything.
Should i just go back to stock? is there an easy way to do this?
Or
Should i unlock the bootloader? is there step by step instructions on this? Sprint Galaxy S5

There was a developer for note 3 who wrote a script to install ROM without custom recovery. It might be the way if any developer can develop script for S5 as well...

Yes that is correct you can't really do anything in terms of custom roms. That being said you still are rooted, so you can install titanium backup and the xposed framework and modify your phone using those methods. You still are on stock, just with an rooted phone, are you talking about unrooting the phone? I've seen things that can let you do that (like this) but I don't think your phone is supported.
I wish I could say that unlocking the bootloader is something that is as easy as you may think it is. It is extremely difficult from my understanding. I don't know a lot about it so I can't give you a good answer to be honest, but I haven't seen anything on the subject.
Just so you know, that once VZW pushes an update to your phone, you will lose root (if you update) and won't be able to reroot until a new exploit is found (assuming the update closes the exploit that towelroot initially took advantage of). This news sucks but this is just a fact of life when dealing with VZW and ATT.

Didn't realize that SuperSU Pro could maintain that even if they close the exploit in the kernel that allows them access root functionality. How is that possible?
all good info..
the reason i want to root, is in hopes of getting a true google phone. No Touchwiz.. i did install superSU. i understand that will keep my phone from getting viruses as easy.
however, my phone popped up an update icon, so i went to check if i could download the update. the message i got was..
"the operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorized way. try downloading software updates using samsung kiel on your PC, or visit a customer service center."

Big Brother is watching you Walk slowly, go lie on the floor and spread your arms and legs. The NSA will be there any minute now
Don`t think that because Towelroot doesn`t trip KNOX (atm) root will not be identified by both the phones hard- and software.
btw.. using superSU app.. you can unroot with it. it worked, and phone is now unrooted.
** Sprint s5 **
Hello,
I came across your thread on the TowelRoot for the Sprint S5 and I was interested in doing this to my Sprint S5 also.
* I just wanted to confirm with you if there is anything I need to know before I do this? I was scared because I didn't see any threads or news to confirm that the V3 TowelRoot will work with our phone.
Please let me know, thank you

I have a Droid Maxx, and Razr Maxx HD and perhaps some beer cash for the answer to root...
I was thinking flashing twrp, then let it root, or am i way off or require an unlocked bootloader? I tried sunshine, but no go as it requires root.
So if i understand, you can get root without an unlocked bootloader, or is an unlocked bootloader a prerequisite of root? I am thinking not, but i am a Windows/SharePoint guy and pretty dumb to linux...

You need an unlocked bootloader to flash TWRP (which flashes SuperSU). There is no known root method available yet because the phone has only been out for about 8 hours.
The Sunshine team has apparently said they will not be supporting Motorola devices for 4.4.4 in their 3.0 release, only HTC, so unlikely it will work there.

Didn't work for me. Too be safe I used a virtual machine with a snap shot taken before installing so I can revert back without the risk of spyware. Also tried Kingo but no luck with either.
---------- Post added at 06:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:20 AM ----------
Also vroot during the root attempt installs 2 apps on your phone and who knows what it installs on Windows without running a regmon, if you do decide to try it make sure you uninstall the 2 chinese apps when your done trying. Also like I mentioned above I would highly not to install vroot or Kingo on your daily driver windows machine. Leave the testing to people who have virtual machines they can install these apps on.
I have used vroot and kingo in the past to successfully root so I know they do/can work, they just haven't been updated yet to work on the Droid Turbo. Hopefully they will.

I keep checking the other Moto forums for root options. I'm banking on anything that will root a Moto 4.4.4 phone will work on ours. The Moto G 4.4.4 update has a later build date than our version.
The free version of Wondershare MobileGo roots the MotoX 5.1 OTA. I just finished doing it. Just download, install and click the root button.

However the ONE Thing that didn't work for me was my data so had to reflash back to stock. Still waiting on a reply from root junky for a fix incase i decide to re-root
Let me know if u get that fix.

Hate to be anal here. You mean that your carrier settings were lost and wifi was your only work around.
If that is the case I'll bag this idea till I know it's fixed.
Who is your carrier?

Carrier is Sprint. All i know is that i couldn't make a phone call or surf the web Unless using Wifi. Simply watch the video in the link and read the comments below and decide for yourself. Sorry im not a Tech Savy as most of U are.
I had the same problem, found a root method that worked but lost my cell internet connectivety, still had calling and texting though.
I just want root to use gltools so i can play nvidia shield games and mod games with gg.

Rooting after a certain version has the issues you described. I think it happened when the BootLoader upgrade happened. Look into the u firmware. Rooting on this device is different and kind of unstable.

to my understanding from other methods that i've seen on here they all say to remove ur sim card so idk might be an option if someone wants to attempt it and if it works I'm down for doing it
I found one with all workarounds for the problems with rooting this phone. Fixes for data cell service, and you can google wifi fix to save your wifi information after reboot. Involves build.prop editor.
@Nickvanexel Normally when folks boast about something important on a popular device, they back it up with either a how-to or links that point them in the right direction. Not only to verify proof but its also common courtesy. I see neither the 2 from you on this post or anywhere else. So tell me...
Was your intention to dazzle everybody with bullsh¡t or are you that much of an asshøle? ???

If you have an international Exynos S8+, you can root with PC. If you have a US Snapdragon S8+ (like me), you will have to wait until a root method is published; however, the method about to be published also requires a PC.

This is the thread for current US Snapdragon S8+ root. I am rooted on T-Mobile S8+, and my battery won't charge past 80%; that's the downside to this method right now.

There is now a working workaround for 80% battery. Go into the root method thread and search for it.
