So I hadn't considered since this is a new s5 and it might not have been on MM which I believe autoroot tool requires currently. So now my phone can't boot or enter into recovery mode. I can't restore via KIES because it can't even enter recovery. It stays on a screen with the samsung galaxy logo and in the top left says recovery booting...recovery is not seandroid enforcing....set warranty bit : recovery. Anything I can do or did I screw myself? Should definitely add a warning on the newbie thread to NOT USE AUTOROOT IF YOU ARE NOT ON MM. Appreciate any help, thanks.
Got it into download mode finally -_- Restoring via KIES. Will let you know how it turns out. Towelroot still work? That might be easier next go around.

Okay first post on this website.
4.4.2, i9505
So, as i am a compete android n00b, i rooted my s4 with the KingoRoot tool as i thought it was an easy method, later i found out ChainFire made an easy auto root .
After i rooted with the kingo my device would randomly reboot, when i called someone, when i locked my phone and random stages throughout the day.
After some reading online i found the solution was to re-flash my phone to stock fireware. so i downloaded odin, drivers, fireware from sam and tried to re-flash it. however my phone failed after aboot.mbn. I then got the unexpected error saying the phone had to be plugged into kies etc.
I then used "philz_touch_6.07.9-i9300.tar.md5" to get rid of the error message which worked. however the phone still would radnomly restart.
Again i turnrf to the web to find a solution for the radnom booting and found this -

1. The error that give u ODIN is coz you are trying to flash an older firmware that the one you have installed in your device.
2. You have to flash a STOCK recovery. Flash this file via ODIN in PDA/AP (like in the pic 1 attached): HERE.
3. Turn off your device manually when the process finish. Boot it into STOCK RECOVERY by pressing and holding Volume Up, Home and Power.
4. Take a look the CSC (pic 2). "Applied the CSC-code: ............" <- This is your REAL CSC. Turn off your device again manually and boot it into DOWNLOAD MODE by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power.
5. Go to Sammobile and download the LATEST firmware for your device with correct CSC and flash it via ODIN.
6. About KNOX and reboots: Delete all KNOX reminds less "Lib = libknox_encryption.so".
7. Good luck
I just bought an S5 today just for flashing custom roms and it still running on stock 4.4.2. I tried rooting it by Odin and CF-auto root file and it said PASS. But then my phone stuck in the Samsung GALAXY S5 screen with RECOVERY BOOTING in blue , RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING in red and Set Warranty Bit : recovery in yellow. Whenever I try to to boot to download mode , recovery mode, or normal boot , it shows the same. Any solution? Thank you:crying:
Read my friend. If it wasn't correct carrier . You possibly flashed the wrong root method. It's fixable . Just read through the correct forums the answers are there
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA-Developers mobile app
just found out download mode is working , and everything become easy now , thanks a lot!
Hi, I've just recently switched over from iphone to android so I'm still new to the whole system. Anyway I've been trying to root my phone for the past 2 days to no avail so I'm at my wits end here. Before I start my phone is from korea which I don't know if whether or not impacts its ability to be rooted, I've done all the basics like enable USB debugging from dev mode, install samsung usb drivers, open ODIN in admin mode and allow MTP to computer. My Device details are below:
>Baseband version : G906SKSU1CPF1
>KERNEL : 3.10.40-8533426
>BUILD NUMBER : MMB29M.G906SKSU1CPF3
So anyway I first tried flashing using CF autoroot for sm-G906S with odin which while it said it was passed and was successful on pc it would be stuck on the samsung logo with a message at the top left that said :
>Recovery booting
>Recovery is not seandroid enforcing
>set warranty bit recovery
So then I tried flashing TWRP custom recovery and putting Super user zip in the internal storage which although got my phone back to working order still wouldnt let me root as the process required me to go to recovery mode from the fastboot mode after it was done flashing (I tried both with and without autoreboot), however once the flashing was done on fastboot I couldn't get to recovery mode no matter how long I held the Vol up/power/home button combination and when i tried it after rebooting it would show normal recovery mode hence there was no way to install the Super User. (Also attempted this with phils recovery)
I then tried to do the TWRP method using adb with command prompt however it would get stuck saying waiting for device when i tried to flash and needless to say kingroot also failed.
At this point as far I've gone through all the methods I could find for my particular device. Would greatly appreciate any insight or advice regarding this problem.
Thanks

Hi,
I recently got me a Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F) and the first thing i wanted to do was installing CM13 as I always do with my new phones. However, when i followed te steps on CM wiki using Heimdall to flash TWRP the blue bar of the downlaod mode increases a small bit, then stops and in the command promt it says something about error with finding PIT. After trying this for three times i decided to go with Odin, which I do prefer anyways.
I tried flashing TWRP , the blue bar is filling to 100% but then on the little screen where Odin usually states FAIL! or PASS! it just says RESET! and my phone is restarting. Shortly after it restarded you can see the RESET! turning to PASS!, but when I tried checking in TWRP is installed, it wasn't. I tried it again and then Odin suddenly says FAIL! After restarting my phone it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". I couldnt even enter download mode anymore till I tried if getting out the battery would work. I could enter download mode again and flashed the same TWRP on my phone again, and aigain it says RESET! but after that my phone worked again. I tried flashing with another version of Odin and TWRP but same thing happened - First run it said RESET!, second run FAIL!.
I thought maybe rooting the device and installing TWRP via their app afterwards could do the trick. So i tried flashing Autoroot with Odin but it made my phone showing a screen with Samsung logo and in the upper left corner something about recovery mode, seemed to be a loop/freeze. So i took out the battery again and flashed TWRP and that solved the problem again. At last I tried rooting by using TowelRoot but it says the service is not available for my device, even though S5 is listed as a supported device.
I really have no idea what to do anymore, would be very grateful if someone could come up with a solution.
BTW: Is it possible to flash CM13 without using custom recovery by using stock recovery?
Greetings

RESET! is basically the same thing as PASS! What version of TWRP are you installing? The keis screen you got is the same as download mode. Why are you using heimdal? your idea to go with Odin was a good one. Anyways, download TWRP 3.0.2 (not 3.0.2-1 or 3.0.2-2 as they are buggy) and flash it in Odin, reboot to recovery and install the ROM you like, of course following its specific install instructions. No, you cant install a custom rom with stock recovery
Thanks for your answer, meanwhile i managed to fix this problem. Had to flash the latest Firmware because twrp (could just install the oldest version otherwise I had no option to boot into recovery at all) said no OS installed. After rooting via Odin worked like it's supposed to.
Why did I use Heimdall? Because I wanted to stick to CM-wikis instruction and they used Heimdall.
Hello all! I need some help with my Note 3 Sm n900p
I am in root (used win10 and kingo root for this) with absolute success.
Next, I followed this guide on Youtube: watch?v=4LyG5KW5jpQ
Upon flashing the TWRP .img file and rebooting I am stuck on the Galaxy Note 3 startup screen with the message "Set Warranty Bit: Kernel" above it. It wouldn't allow me to shut the phone down, but I was able to reboot into recovery mode and factory reset/wipe the data partition.
It still will not boot or do anything beyond that same splash screen. I removed the battery as the phone will not shut down.
I don't know much about flashing custom ROMs, I was attempting to install TWRP so that I could flash Lineage OS 15.1 without using ODIN, without using a computer. Please help. I can't get it to boot at all as it stands and I'm worried I've bricked it permanently
Usual is wrong TWRP flashed.
What did you use to flash this youtube TWRP ??
As you are posting in a forum not for your phone its 99% a file for a different model .
Suggest you post in the forum for your model .
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint
Did you unlock the phone's bootloader? I believe Sprint phones come with locked bootloaders.
