[Q] Root Galaxy S5 sm-900s

I have an official korean Galaxy s5 with Android 5.0 with baseband version g900sksu1boa1, kernel 3.4.0-3866468, build number: lrx2it.g900sksu1boa1. I have been trying to root this phone for days using all available tutorials but all of them have failed. After shutting down the phone, and then pressing the Volume Down-Home-Power keys I get to a screen with Korean script on the page. If I press Volume Down, the phone boots to the normal screen. If I push Volume-UP, I get the Android character, and in the top left of the screen I get the following lines:
Odin Mode
Product Name: SM-G900S
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Reactivation Lock(KK): On
Knox Warranty Void: 0x0
Qualcom Secureboot: Enable (CSB)
RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1
Secure Download: Enable
UDC Start
Then when I connect with Odin I get the following log entry:
<ID:0/005> Added!!
<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..

Then the "Failed"notification appears in Odin. Have I missed something here or does the build I have not have a rooting method yet?

Note 4 Boot Loop - Tried KIES and Flashing Stock ROM - Still Looping

Hey ya'll, this past Saturday my Note 4 started a boot loop while using Baconreader. I was using stock ROM, unrooted, T-Mobile. I first deleted the cache partition, then did a factory reset, but neither worked.
I tried flashing with Odin v3.09, using ROMS from SamMobile:
4.4.4 ANK4
5.0.1 COD6
5.0.1 COG2
Each time I would get
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/003> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/003> SingleDownload.

<ID:0/003> rpm.mbn
<ID:0/003> FAIL! (Auth)
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
And on the phone in download mode was:
Odin Mode (High Speed)
Product Name: SM-N910T
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Reactivation Lock: Off
Knox Warranty Void: 0x0
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable (CSB)
AP Swerv: S1, T1, R1, A2, P1
Secure Download: Enable
UDC Start
SW Rev Check Fail : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1
[1]eMMC write fail: ABOOT
I then used the latest ROM from SamMobile, 6.0.1 EPE3, and everything worked. Odin flashed it and the installation was good. But as soon as it finished and booted for the first time the boot loop started again. I tried using KIES to do a emergency firmware restore but it would not pick up my Note 4 (Using a Samsung USB Cord) I tried it with and without Samsung USB Drivers installed. I'm starting to think it may be a hardware problem, honestly though I have no idea. I would like to get some other opinions before I send off for a new one. (No warranty over a year old) Thanks in advance, and sorry if the formatting is long, I figured it would be easier to read if everything was spaced out. Thanks in advance.

S7 Edge older flash with odin - SOLVED

SOLVED
Go Odin Mode on phone screen. You see the model like SM-G935T
Go sammobile and search for G935T.
If you download smtg else, it does not work.

Hi guys, I am really new user for this forum. So sorry, if i am doing smtg wrong.
I have S7 Edge Oreo 8.0 currently. I think it is a T-Mobile's phone. And it is a phone bought from another country. Imei is legal and everything is ok. But I would like to change it with my local country flash with Odin. Cause the local file from sammobile is including "Mobile data toggle".
I tried to root it with Oreo 8.0 and 6.0 with Odin. I always see the same problem. Can you kindly help me please?

Note 4, no binary PIT found

Hello
I wanted to use my Samsung Note 4 again.
When i started it, i came into the recovery mode.The phone seems not to start into the os.
The phone was working normaly before.
I made a factory reset and tried to restart the phone. But it got stuck.
So i removed the batterie and put it back in to turn the phone on, but i wouldnt. I removed the battery and waited a bit.
I again came into recovery mode.
Then i decided just to flash a new firmware via odin.
So i downloaded the official firmware form samfirm and tried to flash it but an error came: 'There is no pit partition'.
On the Note 4 Error: no pit binary
i googled a bit and found out i have to flash the PIT. So i downloaded the right pit for the firmware and tried again. Same Error
I dont know why its not working
I got the firmwares from sammobile. I tried 3 different.
My phone is from austria, so i tried TTR, MOB and DRE. For Pit i have SFR and VFG
What am i doing wrong? what am i missing?

please help.TIA

Flash again without the pit file. A pit file is needed if Odin can't read the memory chip's partition table.
Also try using different usb ports and usb cables.
