I think you need to read a good few threads before messing about if you are asking that. Or your next thread will be "Help! I've bricked my phone"
At least Google what CF Auto Root is...

mainly asking to be sure, got a copy of the stock rom to flash if it didnt work out. Done this for my S2 and S3 so im not a complete noob
CF AR is just root, if you want custom recovery, you need to flash that separately
Doesn't matter which ROM you're running

Hi Dolat13,
I recently bought a s5 and have the exact same ID as your phone running on lollipop. Been searching everywhere on how to root it but had no chance. How did you root yours?

Hey CF,
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.
It's the first time I wanted to root my phone, aswell it's the first time I connected my phone to my notebook. I followed these instructions step-by-step. Result after the Start button:

My phone is still in download mode & didn't reboot yet. What can I do to not brick my phone? If you need some more information, just tell me.
Kind regards.
//edit: Problem solved - battery removed & turned it on again. :good:
Rooting my device
Hello,
I am going to purchase an S4, I9505 and I would like to root the phone, just simply because I want to remove a bloatware apps and gain true control of the device.
My question is - if I follow the instructions in the first 3 posts to letter, how much is the chance to brick the phone? The phone is already on 4.4.2. Do I need to do anything else, or just follow the guide?
I know its a silly question, but I am going to spend some money on the device, and don't want to brick it...
Thank you in advance!

0,0000000001%. It's almost impossible to brick your phone.
Root have stopped working.
I9505, 4.2.2, XXUAMDE.
The phone have been rooted for more than a year.
Yesterday I tried "Wondershare\Dr.Fone for Android" as some smemo have been lost. Im not 100% sure this is why the root was lost.
Today I downloaded CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar.md5 and re-rooted using Odin3.
The process seemed to run fine - but SuperSu cant start - get the "no binary fil installed" error.
What can I do?

Will CF Auto Root work on an S4 (Android 4.4.2) with the baseband version I9505XXUGNJ3? I really can't afford a new phone but I want to root this one so I'm taking as many precautions as possible. Thanks.

I would install a custom recovery and get the root access through this one. Everytime I made that this way, works pretty good. I'm always using philz touch recovery

Hi!
I am willing to root my Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 (brand-Vodafone Italy and running XXUGNJ5 firmware) using CF Auto-Root, in order to flash TWRP and Google Edition ROM on it.
It is not a network-locked smartphone, but just "branded" (it gets some easily uninstallable Vodafone bloatware each time I update it via OTA, however I can use whatever SIM I want in it): is it risky for me to root it using Chainfire Auto-Root?
Rooting a nordic s4

Rooting I9505G running LRX21P
Hi all,
I tried rooting my I9505G running Lollipop 5.0.0 LRX21P. I used ODIN and CF-Auto-root. SuperSu now wants to update, but the update fails.
I later realized that the CF version I used was not meant for Lollipop. Thankfully, my device is still working normally.
Any ideas on how to root?
Thanks a ton!
Hi, I'm new to Samsung and just wanted to know if anyone has been able to successfully root XXUFNC5? I got 4.4.2 and Knox running on it.

hi,
it is possible to root actual firmware
PDA: I9505XXUGNK4

Hey guys i just bought this international exynos note 3 (N900) and i have some questions about it ;
1. I want to install all the roms kernels and mods i could find but in order to do that (I'm %100 stock btw) ,do i need to first unlock the device ( i dont know how i couldnt find it), then root it with CF- Auto root( my warranty is over so i dont need to think about KNOX i think??) Then use the dd method to flash a recovery and flash whatever i want. Am i right about the things i said on all above ? Is there an easier way to do it ?
2. Do KNOX ever prevents me from flashing things in ODIN if something gets triggered ?
3. If i am not right about the first question starting from %100 stock what do i need to do to get this baby rockin ? I'm thinking about flashing a stock lollipop rom with a custom kernel and root ofc. Any suggestions ?
4. Do we need to flash modems from odin ? Because when reading the AryaMods thread i saw something about updating the modem. I'm on 4.4.2 right now. Can we flash modems or even kernels from recovery ?
Thanks already!!

There is no much of roms to choose for this one. 9005 is most supported here.
Root using cf auto root.
Make back up of ta partion/imei.
Flash recovery with odin. Then flash roms in twrp (watch the ere about how to use twrp or YT).
flash stock roms using odin.
Can't i just flash recovery from odin then flash a custom rom after that without rooting ? Thanks!

If you are going to flash roms based on lollipop, update your phone to latest stock rom for your model using odin so you get latest bootloader.
Dude, you need root access to access system and write to it. Don't custom roms require root, if you take a look? (don't answer to this [emoji61] )
If you want that way, flash twrp with ? odin. Then flash supersu for your model using twrp. That way too you get root. Then flash roms after (read rom instructions).
Ask if all wondering. ?

No my question was; not rooting the device in the first place before flashing the recovery and the rom. The roms already comes with the root in it. So just to be clear first upgrade the base to lollipop from odin then flash a recovery and lastly flash a lollipop rom. Would this be your sequence when you just bought a new note 3 ?

Flash latest firmware then custom recovery then flash the custom rom of your choice. No need to root after flash official firmware but it's good to root first as you may want to backup efs before you start messing the phone. I backed up the efs for the past 1.5years but so far never need it.

Thanks you very much mate!
Edit: I couldn't find the 5.0 version for my device the latest one is 4.4.2 for SM-N900Q. But there are 5.0 versions for SM-N900 for india and such. Can i flash one of them ? Does it interfere with anything so like just for a base ?

Ok. Thank you !
I bought a new/ used S5 (to replace my rooted S3) and had hoped to root it as well. Towel root made rooting very easy back then (for my S3) and now as I read the threads with people having the same S5 config as mine, there seems to be no way to root......not even by downgrading to 4.4. Is this correct ?
Being new to this, I am a bit confused about the other custom ROMs being discussed. Does my S5 need to be rooted to install a custom ROM ?
Thanks much

Correct, it's been said over and over in this forum. If you are on BOG5 you cannot root or downgrade. And yes, you must be rooted to run a custom ROM.

You need to flash the NI2 kernel forest, then reboot. This should get you into SS. Look for NI2flasher.apk
You will also need to flash your build kernel (OG5) BEFORE you exit SS.
The title says it all How do I root my a300fu with android 6.0.1??? Tried some different methods like cf-auto root and via twrp and kingo root but no success so maybe some of you guys know how???
Thanks in advance.

Flash TWRP with Odin, make sure you dont tick AutoReboot as stock recovery flashes itself back.
After that, download SuperSU package, flash it through TWRP, and enjoy root.
Apologies, But do you have links for exact root file to use.
Thank you kindly

For me cf-auto root works. Do you used the latest from chainfires list?
If anybody is interrested I can also provide an odin-flashable, prerooted and deodexed ROM. But it will last some days...
