[Q] Update Unrooted Phone

Sooo, pretty self explanitory, I rooted my Galaxy S4, got some OTA update, which unrooted me. I tried to do the Motochopper method again by downgrading my build number but now ODEN won't do it. My current build number is JDQ39.I545VRUAME7. ROM manager still thinks CWM is installed but I can't boot into it. Any tips on what I should do?
Wait until you are able to fully root again.

[Q] Android 4.3 knox issues after root

Hi, so I tried searching but I couldn't find anyone with the same problem.
So I upgraded Android 4.1.2 to 4.3 a couple of days on my galaxy s3 & I noticed that the root was gone with the update, little did I know that there was this awesome new Knox software (solving problems by creating new ones, heh) which would prevent superSU from starting after rooting. Not to mention this amazing Samsung program also wouldn't start on rooted devices so there was no way I could uninstall it either.
So I realized I had done a mistake and did a hard reset, however, when the phone started again I saw that SuperSU was still there and I was getting the same error as before & Knox (would you believe it) still refused to start. So I heard that my only option now is to flash my Galaxy S3 with 4.3 with Odin to clean it completely, however I'm not able to find a Rom to do it with ever since SAMSUNG released the update in KIES.
I don't really care for Knox and would like it gone completely. I just want my phone to work again with root, my warranty already ran out anyway.
Any help appreciated. Thank you.

[Q] Tmobile Galaxy S5 root without triggering knox, warranty, lollipop questions

Going to cut it as short as I can, and I'll probably sound like a noob and annoying at the same time. Can I root my Galaxy S5 T-Mobile 4.4.2 G900TUVU1CNK2 without triggering knox? I don't want to touch anything (no rom or loader or anything) - I just want it to be rooted so I have some access.
If that can't be done, can I root and yet still send back to T-Mobile as a warranty replacement without them charging me?
If I were to root, can I still use the OTA upgrade from Lollipop once it comes out or does it have to be done a different way?
You can root without tripping Knox. Follow @galaxyuser88 here

If you upgrade, OTA to 5.0, you will lose root privileges and have to re-root

What to do about updating/rooting/xposed?

I want to update my phone, root it, and install xposed all to the most current levels. My phone is currently on 4.4.2 (NC5) stock and unrooted. I have never rooted my phone, but last I checked towel root worked on NC5. I also know that Lollipop recently came out for the S4 as well, but doesn't xposed have issues on lollipop versus kitkat?. What should the order be that I do things so I can update, root, and install xposed? Also how do you safely and completely backup your phone before trying any of this?

[Q] Is There Root Process For I337UCUFNJ5?

[Q] Is there root process for I337UCUFNJ5?
Hello,
Recently there was a firmware OTA sent out from ATT for the Galaxy S4 SGH-I337.
Prior to this I rooted the phone using towelroot.
Of course after the update I lost my root and now I want to root it again!
Will I have to reflash an older firmware (NJ4) or does anyone know of a process to root this current firmware NJ5?
I took the update also. Lost root. I then used Odin to flash the I337_NC1_Stock_Kernel. Have Towel root v3 on phone before flashing since I lost wifi and data after the flash. Run towelroot and its rooted. Then odin I337_NJ4_Stock_Kernel on. Its rooted. Use Titanium to stop update of NJ5. Until someone figures out how....
