I have found a method that i have used twice now, once when i got my phone, and the second when i applied the over the air update.
please note that this is just to gain root, i did not flash any recovery yet as i dont know which is the best yet this modle of phone.
i followed the method described in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790104
I am using a mac so i did not need to install the USB driver, just download the files attached and started up my terminal and followed the directions.
after i did that process, i had to update the su binary, because the one that gets installed does not ask your permission before granting root access it just allows it. so the first thing to do is go to the app mark or some how download the superuser app, and run an update for the binary. after that, you can switch it over to SuperSU if you so choose...
happy hacking

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?

Hello I recently purchased a sm-n900v galaxy note 3 and updated to 4.4.2 and rooted with towelroot and unfortunately made the mistake of deleting samsung apps by mistake and I was wondering what my options are as to how to be able to get the samsung apps back. If anyone can be of some help it would be greatly appreciated.

You can ask someone to extract APK file and send to you to install on your phone.
Or just reflash the firmware.
Where is the best place to ask for someone to extract the apk
Flash the ROM again. Or use Google. You could have done both several times in the time since you posted instead of waiting to be spoon-fed.
I needed the Samsung apps apk once and I found it after 30 seconds. So can you.

There is a specific forum for N900V, you can ask there.

Hi, my name is Kit and I am having trouble locating information on how to root the specific model for my phone.
Phone:Samsung Galaxy S5
Model:SM-S903VL
Carrier: Straight Talk
Android Version: 6.0.1
Baseband Version: S903VLUDU4APH3
Kernal Version:
3.4.0-8867563
[email protected] #1
Wed Aug 10 18:39:36 KST 2016
Build Number: MMB29M.S903VLUDU4APH3
Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. I have tried looking about and only found a Chinese Website that mentioned the Firmware.
I am not sure if there isn't a root or if I am simply misunderstanding how to do something.
Please and thank you for taking time to try to help me.
Sorry for the double post and bump, but it has been a few days, and my topic seemed to be drifting away from page 1 and 2.
I still do need assistance if anyone can help.
Please and thank you.
I would like information too just got this phone and would like to root if possible.
same here, theres hardly any info about this phone.
I want this so hard
Do all of you have the same as me? Model, Build, Version and all of that?

Do you guys have an app for this device, Samsung Video, that just refuses to update?

Yep! I assumed it was from the fact that I had a Samsung Galaxy S4 before this phone. And I used that phone to restore my apps from. It says about Samsung Video (S4 & Note3) I believe for me.
Any ideas?

I haven't seen the beaming service app refuse to update. I'm not sure why it's doing this. The only thing I can assume is the new version of Samsung Video in the app store isn't compatible with the Galaxy S5 (or the installed firmware), and that somebody in quality control wasn't doing their due diligence.
I've been really happy with this phone so far, just wish I could root it. I haven't tried any suggested methods yet, I'm waiting to see what successes other people are having first before I brick my phone (I'm chicken!). I've been following this thread as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...p-rooting-straight-talk-s5-sm-s903vl-t3503505
Just got this phone about a month or so ago and I can't find anything about rooting it. It is very frustrating because everyone keeps ignoring posts about this phone and it then drifts away and nothing gets answered. I have tried the @kxhan15 's method on root a similar version from Straight Talk but fails in ODIN trying to flash TWRP. I really wish someone would come to the rescue with an answer!
I don't know if there is some other information I can provide that may help or where else to look for assistance. In all honesty I just feel useless having to wait.
Give us root! Dev gods hear our cries!
I have these files. Anyone know what to do to make it into root?

Doesn't the TowelRoot v3 app let you modify some code to let you use it with phones that are not yet compatible? I looked into it but I don't quite understand it.
Hopefully someone is working on it behind the scenes and is just keeping it under wraps.
Maybe it will be a holiday present for us! Wishful thinking though.
