Hi there. After much fuss all around the internet I decided to ask here - what about this phone, will it work, what about Knox? Found this https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/co...mmer_bitflips_to_root_android_phones/d9565xf/ on Moto forum, anyone tried it?
I tied it on g900v no go

So guess no new development to this phone. I mean one that does not trip KNOX counter :/ This phone is dead ;/
There is a way to have root and bootloader unlock with both lines in Odin being official still
Be on the factory img firmware available on gem flash .com firmware and it is called combination .......
Under g900v
Then root using kingroot and bootloader unlock using getex bootloader unlock method for g900v kk - mm I used the adb method the thread is on xda under s5 Verizon section

It has a locked bootloader
Also, you are lucky to still be on MDL firmware, DO NOT update to the MF3 firmware or you will lose ability to root your S4. My advice would be to remove sim card and turn off Wifi (to prevent accidentally updating) then root phone with Motochopper. Once rooted go freeze the update apks to ensure it does not update on you later. MF3 is unrootable as of now so DO NOT update if you want root!
I think you mean MF3. And yes, you have a locked bootloader, you should use this...and he is right do NOT do a update, once you do you lose root, and there is no way back just yet.

I'm planning on getting a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337. I've been looking through the android development thread and came across some some threads with TWRP and some other root methods. I heard that AT&T came out with a few new updates for the phone that effects some of the root methods and I don't know which one or if any. I know how to flash recoverys and ROMS through Odin, but I have no clue how to unlock the bootloader for the GS4. I also don't know any other methods of flashing recoverys or ROMS outside of Odin. BTW I plan on flashing cyanogenmod 11. I've only owned samsung phones. I'm new to this phone so I would appreciate any help.
Thanks
What's your baseband number.

In the post I said I was planning on getting the GS4. I don't have the phone yet so I don't know, but I wanted to know if I could do all of this because if I can't then I'll get a different phone.

There is no way to unlock the bootloader. If you're just getting the device it's going to come with mk2 or nb1 firmware. There is a root method for mk2 but there currently is not a root method for nb1. With that said, there is a way to use a rooted rom on nb1.
i would highly suggest you read up on mk2, safestrap, and nb1. Look in the general forum, start with the stickies and then about the first 10 threads in general.

No. Not currently. The s4 is currently not rootable and if you use the method to get back to MF3 you can't use TWRP only safestrap. Also, you can't unlock the bootloader in anything MK2+.

You can't get back to mf3 and the bootloader was never unlocked. There was just an exploit to get around the locked boot loader with firmware prior to mf3

Is there and way that I can unlock the bootloader of my Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T SGH-I337 jflteatt rooted? I have been trying to find something that could possible work for a long time now and so far nothing is working. Also I am running NC1. I just want to install TWRP and unlock the bootloader.
You can't unlock the bootloader yet, as an alternative you can use safestrap. You can install a GPE rom, it's pretty stable.

Nothing?

Edit: as the phone has a locked bootloader, it gets more complicated.
You'd have better luck on AT&T's Note 3 section than here. We have locked bootloaders, and have to use a couple workarounds to get rooted on LP.
Here's the thread for stock rooted LP 5.0 OC2
Basically, you have to Odin back to NC2 (official), root/bb/su/etc., reboot into safestrap & flash the ROM above.
Darn, I had no idea that ATT was still doing that.
Thanks guys... my original note was easy to root this one not so much

Is there a rom for the Samsung Galaxy S5 Verizon , some type of step by step guide on how to do it? Also what do I need to look at on my phone to see if I can root it ?
Thanks

So any of those methods will work? Thanks
There are many ROMs for the Verizon s5 I believe they have to be Touchwiz based and flashed with safestrap or flashfire unless you unlock your bootloader here is a forum for basic root http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/root-method-og5-ok3-t3290370
