Please help! Lost root after upgrading to 4.4.2. When I tried to regain root by flashing CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar, boot loop resulted. It seemed I've lost stock recovery too. After removing the battery and switching to download mode, then vol down button, I managed to boot my device normally. Yet I still can't root my phone. Can anyone advise me on this issue? Thanks in advance.

No I don't sorry
Don't know if this is what your lookin for ?
what drivers? PC S4 (USB and other) drivers? Go and install Kies and let it connect once, it will DL the proper drivers and install them, and after that kill Kies and Kies processes on your PC and you're set for Odin...
Edit: Then if you need those specific drivers again and on the same PC (or even a different one), then repeat the steps or simply perform the backup with Driver Magician or similar and you'll have them even after the PC format...
Dang! now I already rooted my phone. So whats next for me? Should i install recovery now?
Go ahead and install a custom recovery and flash away.

Here is cwm rec (bottom 1st post)here just flash the .tar via odin
PhilZ is an advanced version of custom recovery with more customization and options. It is working great and I don't really see the need to go for a regular CWM; either PhilZ or TWRP should be the way to go - depends on what you fancy more :good:
Today I've tried to root with KingRoot and was sucessful and it doesn't tripped the Knox counter.
just my two cents :highfive:

I don't want to Deodex and/or use Xposed for now, just root is good for me. Deleted the unwanted games that came in stock, disabled the SecurityLogAgent, Knox and ANT, installed DroidWall, thats it for me.
SM-A700F is not working unfortunately...........

Yeah, I've tried with FD variant as I writed in the Thread Title. On official site doesn't even have any of A Series models listed on suported devices, so it's a shot in the dark. :fingers-crossed:
I just got tired of those crap bloatware and games, and decided to give a try, and "voilà", I got lucky. :victory:

Say thanks to the chineses guys who created the KingRoot! I'm just spreading the happiness :highfive: but thank you btw :good:
After root you will keep getting a Notification saying "SE for Android has been disabled..." and asking for restart the device, to get rid of this message disable SecurityLogAgent (doesn't Uninstall, just Disable) GG
