Hey so i have the sm-g975u and if anyone would like someone to test some stuff to get root i am willing to help. And yes before you say anything about it ik the chances for root on this phone are very very very slim but i still have hope that it can be done in some way that we might not have ever thought of trying. So plz feel free to ask for my help
I'll suggest you go to the S10 forum is more active overthere in terms of root for SD.

Your asking for help so this should be in the q&a forum. It would really help to know what firmware you're on.

If you don't even realize you are asking about a SPRINT S4 in the AT&T S4 section, you should not be doing anything to your phone until you read and learn about it.

I agree. Also what are your goals for wanting root for your phone? What is it you wanna do with root?
Hi guys.
Since none of the instruction don't work to unlocking my GT-I9500 I decided to go by unlocking by IMEI. Now, I would like to ask to those already have done by this method. What website did you trust to do it like this?
I just want to know which one really works and which one don't.
Thank you guys. I will appreciate your answer and help.
already done
I did it already. I would like to share were I did it because im sure there are people trying and looking to unlock their device by imei. I did it thru cellunloker. I found this one and because their review on google I give a try and ended really good. Hopefully this will help somebody else. Sorry if im doing any kind of spam. Im not trying to do that, just share the way I did expecting to help somebody in the same position I was.
Have a good day/night guys
Is anyone ever going to make a full root for this with CWM or TWRP or is it a lost cause. I was following the threads discussing making a working root for this phone but no one is posting in them any more. I'm really sad because it would be a great phone if it was fully root able.
Don't lose hope yet. My roommate is going to work on it but he needs the source code for it. I don't fully understand these things but what I do understand is he needs the kernel and the uncompiled code so that he can work on writing something. So if anyone out there can help with that that would be great.
Nice thanks man well I have one idk if that helps

It might, it depends on your level of experience and what you're willing to do. More testers always helps, my device will be used for the first testing of things, and if I'm able to boot without any issues I can push it to anyone else willing to test it. This is still a ways off because we still need someone to help us get the stock source code so if you have any tech savvy friends network with them and see if they have any input on how to get that code.
For sure will do man

Hi.
Since im kinda scared of the whole process and scared to loose my phone i am looking for someone to guide me through the process of rooting my device and installing a custom rom.
we would call via skype or facetime or whatever and do the process together, so in the end i want a rooted phone with SU and custom rom, preferably with TWRP. you tell me what i should prepare to achieve this.
the bootloader is already unlocked, so im not accepting the fact that i already lost warranty and cannot enjoy a custom rom
i would transfer the money via paypal and i am looking for support in english or german.
if someone feels able to help me and wants to make some money, please answer or message me, the details will be talked about via PMs
thanks in advance
I am well versed with the device and speak english as a first language

On Xda forums Private message.
Hi, I have a samsung galaxy s8 SM-G950F running on Exynos octa 8895. Bootlaoser is G950FXXU5D5FB boot laoder. I was in a traffic accident last year and lost my leg, broke my back and neck, pelvis, arm and 6 ribs and ended up in a coma. My memory has been trashed and I really need to root my phone in order to be able to record my calls as a matter of urgency.
I need have seen many threads on the forums on how to do this but as I read through the many comments I notice that there are issues with all of the methods explained. I wonder if anyone knows a link to a current and correct root method for my phone. I cannot afford to brick it and the last phone I rooted was a samsung galaxy S4, which was pretty easy compared to what I have read for the S8. Alternitavely, a better option for me would be to get someone else to do it as my brain does not work as it used to since my accident. I know one click root methods are to be avoided but I read on oneclickroot site that they will do it for a charge but I am dubious about this. Does anyone know a rooting genius who could do this for me?
I would be very grateful for any links to the latest correct root method is or contacts for anyone who would do this for me. I have read the most recent comments on xda forums for this root instructions but they seem to say that the thread should be taken down as it is no longer valid or working.
This is the link that has comments in the last few pages saying it should now be closed. It is also not very clear to follow for me either.

If you need more info about my phone pls ask. Thank you.

i edited the quote to the sake of brevity
dont freak out about the FRP lock in the link provided above my post, but its what sammy has done most recently to help avoid people stealing phones then using them. Anyways, you have to go into the bootloader and toggle the factory unlock tab. Once that is done, youll see a few files in the post that youll need to flash, one to keep the FRP from re-engaging, and the other is TWRP. Once you flash TWRP, it should be pretty self explanatory, but you will see a ton of stuff in that post thats red, underlined, has arrows pointing to it etc etc, but the vast majority of it is just the FRP lock which can be a huge PITA
Thank you for your help. Sorry I havent replied till now, I've been back in hospital with no internet.
