J5 6 - Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers

Hello, i have a SM-J510FN which came to me on XEO but after some rather interesting messing around with FRP and invaild EXT 4 ( image ) and other fails, i got it to take BTU but i would like to know if there is any Nougat Roms out there for this phone as i'd like to move from Marshmallow. I can easily root and install custom recovery ( TWRP ) without much hassle. Thank you for your replys.
Sorry if this is in the wrong place

[Q] Please help me rooting a branded G900F

Howdy y´all ,
I´ve been trying to figure out for the entire day how to root my G900F with stock FXXU1ANI3 firmware ( Vodafone Germany branded) . Unfortunately the build date is Sep 12 2014, so I can´t just flash the latest german unbranded version with KIES. Everyone is telling me that I should root first and backup EFS partition before using Odin, so I don´t just wanna flash CWM, trigger Knox and flash a rom . And I can´t just follow the towelroot guides because the stock kernel is nowhere on the Internet.
Can someone give me some advice what I can do to gain root access? I just need to change SELinux to permissive and install Appradio Unchained to pair with my head unit.....
Thanks in advance
(holy cow, rooting has become so complicated....I was 14 when i got my first Galaxy in 2010, hence my stupid username here and rooting was so easy back then....)

Can't you just flash another stock rom from sammobile.com and go from there?

[Q] How to root a Note 4 910F in the UK?

Hi guys apologies for a question that there is masses of info on already. Experienced iPhone user here who jailbroke everything I had (and even then it was rubbish compared to stock Android hence the move!!). The trouble is it's too much info and is confusing my little head (new to Android) especially as many of my searches go to old threads so I don't know if things have changed.
I have a 910F in the UK and it's on EE (Everything Everywhere = a network in the UK like Sprint or Verizon or whatever in the USA). I want to root it but can't find roots for the UK EE version as everyone seems to talk about US versions only.
1) Is there a root specific to this provider (EE) or doesn't it matter? For info my "baseband version" is: N910FXXU1BOC4 but the "build number" is LRX22C.N910FXXU1BOC5 and when I search the chainfire lists I don't see this I only see somethign ending in B4, is this a problem?
2) Is there a safe way of rooting now without tripping knox?
3) I probably don't want to do a custom ROM as I want to hold onto my apps but just get rid of bloat apps one by one (very happy with Go launcher so far) but I may in the future. Will this affect which method I should use?
4) I've read n00b info about what a bootloader is and I'm still confused - I imagine I will have to unlock this as part of any rooting process?
5) Will rooting also unlock it so I can use with any carrier?
This forum has been fantastic to me so far, thank you. I hope this question isn't too annoying.
http://galaxynote4root.com/galaxy-note-4-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-4/
But im sure it tricker knox . But i dont use it .
I have a 910F also and my baseband is alså C4 and builenumber is C5 . In denmark
I use this root file http://download.chainfire.eu/571/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root-trltetmo-trltetmo-smn910t.zip
Sendt fra min Note 4
Tak!
But it says 910T so I'm a little nervous to use it, even though it worked for you..
Sorry my bad
Here is the rigth one. http://download.chainfire.eu/568/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root-trlte-trltexx-smn910f.zip
That is the one i used. Its my fail i copy the wrong link
Sendt fra min Note 4
Ah ok cheers.
That's cool then. I wonder why it doesn't mention the build number then? And I've been doing more reading and am trying to work out at the moment whether I need to change the recovery (TWRP) as well or just need to use chainfire on its own..... ? It's quite confusing.
I have stock recovery . I will change til twrp wen i will play whit roms when you have stock recovery you can still get updates from samsung kies .
When you root ota updates dosent work
Sendt fra min Note 4
Thanks again buddy.
May be a silly question but are you saying you can do chainfire without changing the recovery and then add the custom recovery bit later?
And can you only add custom ROMs if you change the recovery bit too? (eg with TWRP CWM)
You can use chainfire on stock recovery of you want to play whit custom rom then you need a custom recovery i hold to stock recovery until i want to play whit custom rom i have played a lot whit custom rom
I dont know if custom rom suports Spen that i dont have checked yet
Its my 2. Week on note 4 same day i got the phone i rooted it
Sendt fra min Note 4
Thanks once again mate.
Last questions to clarify: can I root first without custom recovery and do things like remove Samsung bloatware?
THEN
apply CWM or TWRP to the phone some time later if I want to add custom ROM?
Or can you only remove bloatware by changing the recovery too and havign a ROM?
And will the phone wipe and lose all data if change the recovery so best to do it all in one go?
Thanks
Yes you can ..
Just root . Keep stock recovery. Then get root uinstaller or titanium backup from google play and freeze the bloatware
Remember always only freeze. Then if you freeze somthing wrong then you just unfreeze again .
Then later on if you want to play whit custom rom then you just install twrp og cwm recovery and a new rom

[NEWBIE] Need help to root my Note 4 SM-N910G

So I have a Note 4 SM-N910G Variant Currently running 5.1.1 Lollipop and I'm looking forward to root it since my warranty is over. (Snapdragon) I want to flash dr.ketan's rom ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/n910g-dr-ketan-custom-rom-t2928568 ) but obviously I need to root my phone first.
I have researched through many youtube videos and website for Rooting and to my understanding, I need to download a kernel and flash a recovery called TWRP, flash SuperSU and then flash the ROM itself.
But so far, All I could find were kernels for other variants except N910G, some of them said that I can use the kernel for N910F ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/orig-development/tw-kernel-emotroid-team-t2990557 )
Can someone help me? And correct me if my understanding of the root procedure is wrong.
Really really really appreciated If you can help me
I tried to flash a kernal for SM-N910F 5.1.1 on my SM-N910G and it stopped my phone from booting (soft brick, got stuck on the first Samsung splash screen). I'm fairly certain that I did it correctly but I am new to Android so it might have been my mistake. I did get my phone working again by downloading the vanilla 5.1.1 SM-N910G firmware using SamFirm and installing it via Odin.
EDIT: I have successfully rooted my device using Noname Kernal http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63217526

Hello. I'm looking to root my phone. I have an SM-G950U on android oreo and I'd like to know if I can downgrade to nougat 7.0 and root at the same time with a cf-auto-root package from firmware.mobi
Will there be any side effects? Is it possible to downgrade and root an sm-g950u at the same time with that package? (I selected the cf-auto-root option) If not, is there any other way I can get root access on my device? sorry for the noob question
No

Samdung s8 U version is using a snapdragon Soc or cpu ( idk) and all snapdragon samsung s8 and s8+ have their bootloader locked.. ( imagine ur bios patition for ur pc (sort of))
so with a locked bootloader which u cannot unlock ure stuck with official samsung upgrades..
this locked bootloader also locks u from downgrading.. meaning ure stuck with oreo.. theres no way back..
trying to force to erase ur samsung oreo to clean the partition to manually install android 7 will brick your phone ( where as theres no way to install another software on a phone that has no connection with hardware,basically ull have some metal and glass componnents... a dead phone..nothing can be done after) ..
Just wait a couple of months till Samsung hopefully fixes some oreo bugs.
Also rooting isnt possible at the moment with samsung s8 and s8+
