Rooting Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 Using Odin - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. Has anyone had any experience rooting a galaxy s5? Although it says pass and success afterwards I am not sure if the process finished correctly. Does the whole odin procedure only take about 10-15 minutes? It only used 15% of battery life and only 1 box highlighted green. Just wondering where and if the process went wrong. Kept getting errors afterwards about google play services not working which I solved by disabling it. SU SuperUser error missing binary files. Is anyone familiar with this issue? Thanx

Galaxy S5 Root not working

So, I was having trouble re-rooting my S5 after the XXU1ANG2 update for the SM-G900F international model as Odin kept throwing out a FAIL to write error every time I tried. After multiple attempts I finally figured out what was wrong with it. In my settings I'd selected the reactiviation lock, so that If I lost my device nobody would be able to get into it. So unticking this and do the usual root process and voila it works as per!
Just thought I'd share this information for anyone also having trouble

[Q] Rooting/Possible Brick (Please Help ASAP-Urgent)

Hi, guys. My name's Vandy, I'm new here. Been researching rooting for a little while, had some free time today so I decided to give it a whack. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 I-9500, running on the Ting network (I bought it from Amazon, unlocked). I followed the instructions of Sam Pullen's Samsung GS4 4.4.2 video to almost the T, but realized half-way through I had made a mistake.
The instructions call for the download of the auto-root and Odin, as well as an updated Samsung USB Connector device. I downloaded the two, but hadn't fully installed the connector- I think I never caught the prompt of "please reboot". So, I had entered the Odin process without completed that installation. While downloading the auto-root, the process froze on downloading a file "cache.something", and stayed for a very long time. Making another presumably chronic mistake, I reboot my computer to finish the installation. I finished it, brought back up Odin, and tried to continue or redo the install, but now it either a) crashes halfway through or b) says the download failed.
Is there any cure to this? Please let me know as soon as possible.
Hi there,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Just reflash cf auto-root trough Odin and you will be fine.

Yumie32 using massive amounts of battery. Virus?

I have been recently trying to root my Note 3 and have had no success. However I have noticed today that my battery drops in an unbelievably short time. My battery settings shows "yumie32" using 52% CPU and nothing else. Anyone have any idea what this is? I cannot find any apps or files associated with this and there is nothing when I do a search. I have a screen shot I will attempt to attach. Thanks for any help.
Post lacks information .
What model
What root method .
Hi!
I've got same problem. Root was unsuccessful. Yumie32 using CPU.
Root app: kingroot
Device: sm g900f
Anyone can help me?
Yeah, i just tried to root my samsung phone yesterday with kingroot and it is dying extremely fast! Help!
Factory reset your phone
Flash new stock firmware from sammobile by Odin
Don't use kingroot for rooting your device anymore
Try another method
Use samsung kies to restore your app & contacts & Msg ... etc
I've never used Kingroot but I'd like to know. Is it really a malware?
I think you must choose the Odin method....Kingo root is a worst method.

I'm unable to root my S5 Lolipop 5.1.1. keep getting error msg w/my apps???

Quick, recap, I own a galaxy S5 Lolipop 5.1.1 SM-G900W8 build #LMY47X.G900W8VLU1COI4, previously rooted.
It all begin, when my phone been experiencing some battery draining issue. So I decide to do factory rest. But get this at that time my phone was fully rooted, w/Lolipop 5.1.1...
So I've read all the informations I could get online made sure to unroot the phone ( using CF-Auto Root ktlevl-sm G900W8.), with Odin, and reflash the phone with custom recory (G900W8VLU1COI4.tar.md5 file). I've made sure to get the exact one matching my phone carrier.
And after rooted the phone...All went well...Then 24-48 hours after the **** hit the fan.!!!!
They weere dialogue box keep poping up, from Touchwiz has closed, to Unified Daemond has closed just to name a few...
I decided to factory rest the phone again, reflash and rooted same problem occuring occuring.
So I decide not to root and the issue stop but now I'm unable to fully use my phone because it anin't root so certain function of my phone can't benefit such like using Airplane mode or Mobile data toggle using tasker. When my phone was fully rooted I was able to take full advantage of my Tasker profile. I've google the web and came acrros people who expericing the same issue as I did, but can't find a solution.
If there anyone who had that problem and manage to solve it, kindly share your story and solution with me....
Thank you in advance on getting back to me,

S7 Edge is messed up

Hi!
I'm posting here because I did not have a high post count.
Yesterday I rooted my SM-G350F with Magisk. Because I'm new to rooting, all I did was follow a video. (Samsung Galaxy S7 /S7 Edge Root Android 8.0 100% Working by Android Doctor published on May 8, 2018).
Everything worked as shown in the video.
After I rooted my phone, I wanted to test out this PoGo spoofing thing. It said something about google play services and some other stuff. I thought I had to download the google play services apk and replace it with the built-in one. I attempted to remove the app with Lucky Patcher which ended up with the phone spamming me with the common app stopped working pop-up (which I assume was the google play services). I kind of got the pop-up spam to stop but I couldn't download anything from any browser at that point. I thought I really messed up with my phone so I booted it into TWRP. I went to wipe EVERYTHING with the TWRP app which got me boot the phone normally with the welcome startup. I could see the WiFi's and connect to them. When I got to the "Checking for Updates" part, it got stuck there. I thought I should just try to flash stock firmware on my Samsung S7 Edge. I proceeded to attempt a flash with Odin but kept getting boot.img fail. Now when I start my phone I get the "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.". When I try to do that, it says that it's an "Unsupported device". Now the phone is still recognized in the Odin software and that's all I can pretty much boot up with. I can't even boot to TWRP anymore. I read that as long Odin still recognizes it, I still have hope.
I am using the latest Odin.
I got my stock from the sam mobile site /samsung/galaxy-s7-edge/firmware/SM-G935F/PRO/download/G935FXXS3ERI1/236182/
The chipset is Exynos 8890.
I hope someone out there can help!
Thanks in advance!
Boot into download mode. Connect to your PC and fire odin. Use latest firmware from sammobile. Tick Nand erase and flash. Hope this helps
Same issue for me, i hope you find something, and if you do, please let me know!
