Or visit the official thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783157 and use the new and improved version.
I have a SM-900F and this doesn't work on it. When I click on the logo inside the app, it says that it is not yet compatible with my device
Same here...This phone isn't currently supported (S5)
How to reset flash counter for galaxy S5 G900FQ

First flash old kernel with Odin
https://www.dropbox.com/s/cun1uainm2h07em/KERNEL_G900FXXU1ANE2.tar.md5
And then root your phone using Towelroot
when you done install SuperSu from market
And when your root is okay you can flash latest kernel and enjoy
So I saw an update for "performance improvements" (~200MB) on my rooted 900F. I unrooted and updated. No problem. Once I reboot there is a second update ~1.2MB. I installed that and rebooted, tried to run towelroot and it says device not supported. Tried a few different modstring values including the temp root and none of them work.
Moral of the story; don't update if you want to towelroot.

Hard to say, it doesn't seem much different but I've only had it installed a couple of hours and not used the phone too much yet.
I can tell you, however that it adds more bloat! There is at least one new app I noticed called "My Galaxy"
EDIT: Also, they've changed the animation for fingerprint unlock failure to some horrible alarming flashing red/white thing instead of the subtle one it was before.

A kernel patch for Towelroot was te be expected. Use CF Auto Root or wait for Geohot for an possible updated version of TR to get root again..

I'll wait. The reason I used towel root in the first place was not to trip knox.
It was just a headsup for those who might care more than I do.

i don't understand why people wants to avoid knox trip. You made the choice to root...so no more warranty, and if you got bad luck and have to repair your phone, just pay for it

Because I'm an software engineer and I know exactly what I'm doing by rooting.
Denying root with this knox and other bull***, locked bootloaders, etc, is totally unacceptable to me.
I refuse to lose warranty for some hardware fault that might occur (and I've had many issues over the years and dozens of phones) on something I own because I got "root" access.
I dare someone to tell me that I've lost warranty on my laptop because I installed CentOS, logged in as root and twiddled with my bootloader.
It's entirely and utterly a matter of principle.
Don't expect you to agree, just helping you to "understand".

When is the New update for Towelroot?
I've recieved this update too, what would happen if I update without unrooting? I've deleted a few pre-installed apps, when updating, I won't have a problem with that will I?
Thanks!

Quite simple, when you see the ota, remove ALL changes yiu nade to system (e.g. adblock hosts file)unroot from within SuperSU, then reboot then accept the OTA.
Bare in mind if you do this, there is currently no way to root again without knox trip

Flash latest stock ROM and don't root or change recovery. That way it stays official. When we get xposed and wannam, you can set it to official even with root, but for now that's the only way.

Hi guys, I want to root my wife's Galaxy S5 / SM-G900F running Android 6.0.1. Although I'm quite familiar with rooting android I know Samsung can be tricky - the question is: will the existing version of CF-Root
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537
work for all baseband versions for 6.0.1? On CF-Root download page baseband version specified is MMB29M.G900FXXU1CPD3 ---- but mine is MMB29M.G900FXXS1CPJ1?
Big thanks, Majo

Thanks man, will do it with ODIN for TWRP flashing. But just to make sure and confirm - beside flashing SuperSU no further unlocks (like bootloader etc) is needed for Samsung S5?? I want to install custom ROM...
Thanks for reply in advance!

I'm trying to root my phone. I'm looking for TWRP recovery for AT&T SAMSUNG S7 Edge (SM-G935A).
Bootloader, PDA, and Baseband Versions: G935AUCU4BQF3
ACC Version: G935AATT4BQF3
Product Name: hero2qlteuc
Any suggestions?
Sorry to say that due to the bootloader v4, we are unable to use TWRP. At least for the Qualcomm US S935A phones.
But you can use Xposed if you want.

Unfortunately you cannot flash a custom recovery like TWRP to bootloader v4, in fact to ANY bootloader version of the A/P/T/V/etc models based on QC chipset, since they're locked. You can however flash TWRP onto the international F/FD/etc models since those use Exynos chipsets with unlocked bootloaders.
