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?

Hi all,
I not sure if this has been posted before. I just wanted to know if there is a method to root this phone now or is there anyway I can downgrade to 4.4.2 and root the phone. I am currently stuck with the stock rom and I would like to root my phone and make the performance better and battery better.
No to each of your questions - no root on 4.4.4 and no downgrade.

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?

Root for SM-G900V ?

i've noticed the tool "CF-Auto-Root" is not compatible with the SM-G900V(Verizon Galaxy S5) phone model, does anyone know why this is? And if anyone is aware of a tool that could root said phone running 6.0.1 could you please comment the tool
Thanks for your time
Currently there is no way to root stock mm on s5 verizon
but you can be rooted on lollipop and bootloader unlock on lollipop
then install custom recovery then install a prerooted mm ROM that is currently the only way
