im going to be flashing my friends Grand Prime from Cspire model SH-G530r7 and i was wondering if files for G530H would work because that is all that im seeing for the phone
he just got the phone and i dont want to brick it because cspire hardly has support on xda because its a southern provider
sorry this isnt really thread worthy, but i wanted to make sure g530h files worked or not
I don't think it will work and you shouldn't try, you can lost your phone

Well I would try oneclickroot but that apparently cost money to root via donating.
He tried kingroot and it would give him connection problems.
So idk,
Hmmm,

I agree with you. I used kingroot, then Supersume.

Kokumotsu,
Where you able to successfully root your G530R7? I have the exact same phone and wanted to root my phone to get backups off my old phone using Titanium Backup.

Hi !
I'm interested by a custom recovery on S5A too, i have european version (SM-G870F) but i guess it's the same no ?
XDA is the best !
Thank you !

Coming from a Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505 (rom was before Knox, yay!)) I guess I'm spoiled for info. I didn't quite expect it to be this sparse. :-/
Only 2 threads concerning rooting and installing recovery on the SM-G870F..
Even though I've been here for almost a decade, I still find it unsettling every time i have to fiddle with the firmware.
And even more so, when Samsung is threatening with all sorts of evil (which btw by law, doesn't ruin my guarantee where I live).
So thanks guys! I'm now rooted (Chainfire -Towelroot doesn't work) and have made a backup with TWRP.

Post a feedback when you're done
I confirm that twrp-2.8.7.0-klte ( galaxy S5 international version) works without problem on S5 Active ( SM-G870F).
You can not install this custom recovery direct from TWRP Manager from GooglePlay but installing is possible through Odin.
It was very hard to get any information and find clear experience about possible custom recovery for this model (SM-G870F). But thanks for you guys, it actually works now on my phone. :good:
Looking for Safestrap for SM-870W
Hi All,
After some research, I found that Samsung S5 Active (Bell (Canada) Mobility) has a locked bootloader
so I cannot install CWR or TWRP customer recovery. So I guess it Safestrap for me. But I can only find
Safestrap for either AT&T or Verizon http://www.mediablog.us/download-install-safestrap-recovery-verizon-galaxy-s5-sm-g900v-att-galaxy-s5-sm-g900a/
Can I use either one of them on my device? My intention is to load Koolkit ROM but I need to figure
out first how can I install Safestrap on my phone.
Any help, advise or suggestion is appreciated.
Thank you.

Did you get this device rooted yet? I bought one of these today and it looks like I'm going to have to manually root it unless somebody can step in?

Both of these are known to fail against this device, although I attempted to root with these to no effect.
Looks like the only sane way to root this device currently is via the pre-rooted option with Odin.

I know it's a long shot since the Verizon variant was never suppose to be rootable (if that's even a word lol), but it doesn't hurt to ask..

Flashfire doesnt work without root in the first place. So no.
Well, the problem is not the lack of root, but lack of ROMs for the Verizon s7.

The only things I've found you can use with your device are Xposed and a few de-bloating scripts. Check out this thread for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039
