[Q] Looking for Root for SM-G530AZ

Looking for a root for the Cricket branded Galaxy Grand Prime (SM-G530AZ). Although all the root methods I have found pertaining to the Grand Prime say they are compatible with the SM-G530H and all it's variants, I can't get it to work. Every time I try flashing through ODIN, I get a failed message, and the phone freezes. Battery pull is the only way to reset it.
Android Version 4.4.4
Baseband Version: G530AZTUU1AOC1
Build Number: KTU84P.G530AZTUU1AOC1
I have seen one member on previous Grand Prime root threads that claims to have had success with the Cricket version. If anyone has any insight, or has had any luck, please let me know.

What is the failed message that you're getting?

Does the G530AZ variant have Custom recovery? if it has you can just flash supersu zip thru cwm or twrp. I have G530H it works for me.

For like a week or so and found it
Hope u enjoy it

UPDATE - SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED SM-G530AZ!
Please read this post carefully if you wish to root your SM-G530AZ Cricket branded Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime phone. The file linked in the original post of this thread does NOT work with this particular model number!
Note: I cannot post links yet since I have not yet hit 10 posts (this is some kind of anti-spam measure I assume) so the link to the file I mention is (please fix the URL by removing spacing; the URL has no spaces in it): http : // download1031 . mediafire . com/1gu77v6t67sg/8mn3f1ppmkxk94b/SM-G530H-4.4.4.zip
Anyway, there was no answer to my question, as I'm impatient and cannot wait longer than a day, so I took the plunge and decided to try the root flash file listed here. The "1_cfroot_sm-g530h_mohan.tar.md5" provided in this thread did NOT work. Odin reported the following:
Upon power-cycling my phone by way of battery removal and insertion I found that the device would not boot. Thankfully, prior to trying this, I had done quite a bit of searching and remembered an alternate root image for the Grand Prime G530H called "SM-G530H-4.4.4.zip". It is available at (see link in NOTE above; you can also find it by Googling it I believe). At this point I figured it could not hurt anymore to try another image so I launched the device back into Odin mode and used the CF-Auto-Root.tar file included in the ZIP file.
I stopped yelling and screaming in anger because -- it worked! After updating the firmware Odin then restarted the phone three times. During the restarts, the pane in Odin's window above the "ID:COM" pane was grey and was labeled "RESET". After the third reboot the phone launched into Android. I then went into the Applications window on the phone and found "SuperSU". The phone was indeed rooted! Shortly after I launched SuperSU, the "RESET" label in Odin turned from grey to green and changed to "PASS!". I unplugged and plugged back in my phone so that I could use the Android SDK "adb" tool in Mac OS X (I ran Odin 3 from a Windows 7 virtual machine in VMWare Fusion) and launch a shell on the phone. To confirm all was well with my root access I typed "su" in the shell, confirmed authorization for the process when SuperSU prompted me, and there I was -- root!
And, for completeness, here is the Odin v3 output of my successful flash using CF-Auto-Root.tar located in SM-G530H-4.4.4.zip:
In summary:
The particular SM-G530H root firmware file linked by the OP in this thread will NOT work with a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530AZ model phone ("Cricket" wireless company branded). Instead, use the CF-Auto-Root.tar located in the SM-G530H-4.4.4.zip located at (see link in NOTE at top of this post).
Anyway, thank you for the post OP, and to whomever created both the firmware images (even though the first one failed on me!) for all the hard work you put in. You are the lifeblood of this community!

Cricket sm 530az root failed
Hi, there.
My phone is failing the root also, I'm not able to get into my phone at all.
I will get an triangle with a message saying it failed and I need to contact my phone provider to operate my phone. I went to the CRICKET store yesterday, theygave me a new SIM card but it still won't work. Currently, my phone say it's downloading and don't turn off target. It been like this for some hours. It's really frustrating, it wouldn't happen if I didn't click on software update. Can anyone help me or doIneed a new phone?

You're good. Just sounds like you are stuck in download mode. Try pulling your battery out. If that doesn't work, do a battery pull, and instead of powering up normally, press Volume Up, Home, and Power at the same time. This should allow you to do a factory reset.
If that still doesn't work, you're looking at flashing stock firmware through Odin. Very simple if you can follow instructions. There are many guides on this site that walk you through using Odin.

SM-G530AZ fix
I had the same problem with galaxy sm-g530az.
Put the phone into recovery mode.
Connect the phone to computer usb
Update phone with adb at the same time as you open Samsung kies.
If both are done at the same time Samsung kies will get a huge update. After it is done you should have Samsung kies lite. Use the firmware upgrade and initialisation process. It might still tell you it can't recognize the phone the first time or two. Just keep trying a couple times it will recognize the phone and complete the process.
Good luck

SM. G531H 5.1.1 Lollipop

People, I've searching in web and I found out that a new version of Galaxy Grand Prime have been released, but this new one has Android Lollipop. Mobile spects are the same in both, except for the OS.
This mean that the ones that have G530~ version aren't getting Lollipop?
There is a video on Youtube of an unboxing, you can check it out
Good Luck!

http://www.cnet.com/news/sprint-sells-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime/
OP seems to be referring to the above link. It appears Sprint is roling out the same device with lollipop for some $60-100 more than we paid Cricket to get it with KK during the initial release.

Hi, I was ready to install CWM Recovery on my Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G531H phone which I guess it is running Lollipop but I started reading about Lollipop.
Now I have a question. What is the problem if my phone is running Lollipop? I don't understand if could be a problem if I want to install CWM and then rooting it.
Are you so kind to tell me about this?
Can I use the same CWM files that is made for Prime SM-G530H?
Can I use the same files made for Prime SM-G530H if I want to root it? Or where I can get these file?
Of course all of these question don't need to be answered. I just need to figure it out what I need to do.
Thanks.

Dont know about CWM recovery..BUT..I'm sure..TWRP recovery and Root exploit must match to OS version..the files are not interchangable between OS versions..unless it just happens to work out that way in development..but that'd probably be a RARE case..
I ALWAYS update..AFTER know good TWRP and Root has been developed for the next update..before I step to the next OS version..
But..like my device here..came from the box with 5.1.1 THEN one is stuck with no TWRP or Root..at the mercy of development..
You may try to revert..to the OS..when all your files were compatable..and wait it out for the next development..

How to root Samsung galaxy A5

I have Samsung galaxy A5, SM-A500H. Running Android 5.0.2, downloaded from here. I want to root it.
The only root available right now AFAIK, is CF-Auto-Root, as described here for example. But this root breaks everything, all the apps stop running when you reboot the phone and you have reinstall the firmware, it doesn't work.
Is there another way to root my device?

the method you suggest, is great, i always wanted to know how that's done but can't do it, since it will require me to reflash the phone and reinstall the rom

This answer is for future users
first if you want to upgrade to 5.02
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-A500H/
I use the unknown carrier but you could pick any. just create an account there first.
and to root it, the only safe way, all other ways, it will break it, so again the only safe way to root that thing

didn't work before, now is working, download the apk, root it, takes 5 min, restart your phone, have a nice day

Samsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T113NU Root and Xposed Fix

My story:
So my uncle gave me a "Galaxy tab E" and at first sight it looked like a tab 3, but this tab has minimium support on internet and i was searching to root and install xposed in this weird samsung tab it was very hard task to do...
DISCLAIMER
Only for Samsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T113NU (goyavewifixtc) with stock firmware 4.4.4 kitkat.
"goyavewifixtc" can be checked on cpu apps this is why we are using inception for goyavewifi.
This is the only method that is working succesfully on my tab.
First (Rooting):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/general/sm-t113-inception-auto-root-t3129723
You need to download the "inception-samsung-goyavewifi-autoroot-SM-t113.zip" from the download section of that post, it's an autoroot, all you've got to do after downloading the file:
-Power off your tab.
-Enter the download mode of the tab, just press power button+down volume+home at the same time.
-Make sure you have the drivers, can be downloaded from windows 7 and above versions when you enter the download mode of the tab.
-Run Odin 3-v3.07 exe
-Check the "PDA box" and click on "PDA".
-Select the only file that is in the folder.
-Click "Start"
-After all is done just click exit and your tab is rooted!
From there the tab will reset and you will have super-su installed, i recommend uninstalling it and donwload it form the play store so you can have super-su pro, because it wasn't working for me with the super-su version from flashing inception.
Second (Xposed):
So if you try to install or flash any version of xposed it will bump out an error like this:
"xposed is not yet compatible with android sdk version 19 or your processor architecture (armeabi-v79)" and other stuff...
So you have to download the xposed installer from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64063168&postcount=62
And install the apk file on your tab and there you go, xposed fixed!

Sm t113nu opinion request
Hi! I tried rooting my device using the t113 root guide from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/help/how-to-root-sm-t113-t3076658 .. It worked but the only disadvantage is that the camera (both front and main) is not working (prompts "camera failure") .. Now I installed xposed installer with my SAMSUNG T113NU .. But the thing is I am planning to give this tablet to my cousin as a present and wondering if what procedures should I do to make my camera working again.
Now as my title says. What do you think is the best way to make my camera working again and at the same time able to root it?
thanks in advance
