So, I'm currently running cloudyg2 2.2, and I'm thinking about downgrading back to stock and then taking the OTA to lollipop, but I haven't heard anyone mention if it is possible to retain root through the update process, or to obtain root afterwards. It'd be great if there was a flashable zip, but I don't know if that's possible at the moment.
You can get root again. Its a script in the development forum.
If you do this can you make a twrp backup of the stock lollipop rom and upload it? (since you'll essentially be pure stock anyway).
I'll buy you a beer
I see a link for a tool you use while connected to a computer, but does stump root still work?

No, all on-device roots are patched with Lollipop (unless you have a custom recovery, which is unobtainable on stock lollipop for the d800 as far as I know)
Use the one that requires PC. If you run into issues, pm me or reply to me on this thread.

root is easy, and ill confirm about bump recovery in 30 mins, charging phone for any re flashing required.
recovery is good to go now autorec for specific model at playstore.
Please upload flashable zip of this official AT&T lollipop.
Does anyone know if downgrading back to kitkat is a possibility at this point in time?

I'd assume you could just use a kdz to go back.
So.. no recovery as of yet on official Lollipop am I right?
Keeping that in mind, is it worth the update? Is it smoother/better?
I know this can be asked in any of the other threads, but I'm asking here with respect to its worth when compared to losing Custom Recovery.

Yes for lollipop. Sorry was really excited... I am running lollipop rooted with twrp installed.. If the 1 click apps don't work for u.. Try the manual mode the guy posted a few posts back.. Then run autorec from play store. For your variant
Can anyone help me please? I get stock on the last step of rooting, the script of the susupersu installation doesn't appears... And I wait for 5 min, and nothing happened....

you should be on download mode
download mode should be working with drivers and all.
I'm new to rooting, and have rooted my phone using KingoRoot from my P.C.
It works fine, but when I reboot, it reboots into recovery mode which then allows me to reboot normally.
I surfed some of the forums to find a solution to this and found a common answer which I tried.
1) Factory reset
2) Wipe partition/cache
3) Reboot
This I did, but it has not resolved the issue.
Android 4.4.4
Build KTU84P.G530FXXu1AOE2
Kernel 3.10.28-599907 [email protected] #1
I have now done this twice to ascertain that the issue has not been fixed and am loath to carry on lest I brick the phone - of course, there is the other reason, setting it up from new every time is a real drag.......
Use flashify flash kernal back to stock one after root

Thanks for your response, I'll have a look at flashify, will it unroot the phone?
O.K. Had a look, have installed, will look for some tutorials before I use it !
I cannot find a download link for the correct build number and even when I go to download by country/carrier it is not listed.
TWRP has no listing for it, and neither does CWM. PHILZ just doesn't go there...
I suspect that it is already somewhere on the phone since it is "stock" but after having looked, I am unable to find it.
Any suggestions ?
I might can upload mine kernal, but it's 5.1.1, if you want to use my kernal you have to upgrade to 5.1.1 lolipop. If you want to do that pls let me know I will teach you how to.
Yes, Lollipop will be fine !

Download and install Kies3,Trun phone into download mode, and use kies update your phone to 5.1.1, then download kingroot and flashify, use kingroot to root, DO NOT REBOOT after root, use flashify flash kernal to stock one.Then enjoy.

Thanks for your response !
My phone is already rooted and has been rebooted a few times since then.
So, what now ?
So, I downloaded samsung Kies 3.2 (latest) and connected the phone, no problem there.
When I click initialise upgrade, Kies stops responding.
Downloaded Kies 3.1 - same thing.
According to Samsung update, there is no upgrade for my phone to 5.1.1. Are you sure that this is possible. You said that you would teach me, but you have really not told me anything !
Next ?

First, the grand prime is able to update to 5.1.1 lolipop, I'm sure because mine is on 5.1.1. Go to Settings -> About phone, on the top you can see a option to update your phone. After update your phone go download kingroot and flashify. After you root your phone , use flashify to flash the kernal back to stock one. I will upload stock kernal soon.

I have looked for it and not found it. There are some galaxy prime phones that do (G531F does)
I just want to keep my phone rooted as it is, and sort out the boot issue.

Have you reboot yet? If you do and still works fine that's means you are good.
Problem is resolved !
I have resolved the issue myself.
It appears as if all I needed to do was remove the battery for a short period of time.
The phone now boots correctly and I have not lost my root access !

There are multiple threads right here in the forums that offer step to step instructions for rooting your model of grand prime. Use the search function and you'll find them.
Root is similar to having administrator rights on your computer, it allows deeper levels of modification than is available on an unrooted device. There are apps available that will allow you to transfer your apps to SD card also, however most, if not all require root.

You will have to unroot your device before updating, you may then be unable to root again for some time until a new method is found.
However there are custom ROMs available for you device amongst other things.
I invite you to read through the forums for more information

Well, if you have TWRP you can just flash SuperSU flashable zip[ a guaranteed successful root with a very easy way plus if you have phone with marshmallow and above kingroot won't able to root because of new anti-root protection added so normal/kingroot won't work]
The best way to root G530H is flashing this by odin. Link here. http://d-h.st/oqFc. After flashing it flash any recovery by odin.

I'm not really sure what causes that to happen with your phone. What did you do after you rooted your phone? Did you modify/touch the system? You maybe accidentally deleted some important files in your system. If you like, you can go back to marshmallow and use Cf auto root to root your phone, here's the link: https://download.chainfire.eu/815/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-j5nlte-j5nltexx-smj500fn.zip
Just flash it with odin.
Yes i modify system, i install stock ROM before via odin (if i good remember). I try this cf auto root thx

That must be the problem, do not modify the system if your'e not sure about it. Inform me if you successfully rooted your device with cf auto root.

you can root "automaticaly" with KingoRoot using the pc, just make a search on Google, download, install and then root your phone
this is the most easy and simlpe way!(without "broke" something) to root the LLP stok rom
also you can use this guide to root

along with that threads you can get stok roms already rooted to install, LLP or MM
Good luk!
PS. dont forget to do a "search" for them
most of them was writed just for spread the ink and loose the time, nobody read it!
Kingo root was a first program that i check but on marshmallow dont work, i dont try it on lolipop. But now i have again marshmallow then i try cf auto root at first.
God dude, look, just type on youtube how to root Galaxy j5 marshmallow, video is by Techno Geniune or something like that, follow instructions carefully, and that is it, nothing hard. And don't say that rooting using twrp caused problems for you, it didn't cause any problems to anyone out there, it is just i think that you are lazy and want to root using an app...
Edit: if you are on lollipop, just type how to root galaxy j5 lollipop...
Hmm, interesting you say that im too lazy to root my phone manually, and you say that i dont use youtube tutorial by Thechno Geniune, and at last you say that twrp dont broke anything for anyone. Weird because i use 4 files with twrp, and i watch mentioned by you tutorial and i was forced to 4 time installing ROM. Then i propose at first get knowledge about someone problem and then write that someone is lazy.

Can you answer these questions:
Is your boot loader unlocked now?
Do you want a stock version of 5 or an after market version. If you have an unlocked boot loader do you want CyanogenMod 12 or a variation of it?
Why did you root your phone?
