Verizon S4 i545 VRUEMK2
Was rooted (vroot), updated to MK2 OTA and took away root.
Tried Kingoroot (google: cnet kingo) but after loading drivers it never gets past "connecting." The Kingo article was from October well before MK2 but I thought I would give it a try.
Is there currently a successful way to root MK2?
Thanks!
Yes there is it works great and easy to use.

Could not find the install.bat file so I used the script from mj7root-source.zip (a few posts down) with adb.
I am now rooted on Verizon i545 MK2.
Thanks!
Glad it worked for you.

Ok so when I got my phone on Oct 4 I rooted and downloaded twarp that day. So my Knox is tripped. I'm on mi5 rooted right now. I did the wanam and exposed an now system is official. It let's me start the update to mj4. How can I update and still keep root?

Sounds like people have issues downgrading from MJ4 but if you're still on MI5 downgrade to the official MI3; Update to MJ4, root and TWRP again. (Anyone is welcome to correct me if I'm wrong...)
I'm still on MI5, being patient and cautious.
UPDATE: Similar thread only several posts down with info...
I think I might wait also. To many steps to screw up lol

I got to update but somehow supersu is not working. Says I don't have root access but I'm running a custom recovery?

No

You cannot flash backwards. Your only option will be to either wait for a posted root method or look up vroot.

I have a rooted mj7 and I heard vroot still works for mk2 but since we're still waiting on a safe strap or unlocked boot loader will it come out faster on mj7

Not much hope in unlocked boot loader. Hash is starting work on ss port to mj7 if he can...as 4.3 is locked down way more than 4.2 and me7. I wouldn't do any otas whatsoever unless you want to lose ability.

Not much hope in an unlocked one but where there's a will there's a way and I'm never giving up hope on a Loki adaptation or any other kind of exploit. I'll never surrender.

So i really want to root my verizon s4. I'm using it on tmobile service. I was trying to find a root method but it seems like the threads are closed and I don't want to brick my phone. I"m wanting to flash hyper's rom after i root it. Can someone please provide me links on how to achieve my goal of successfully rooting and flashing hypers rom. I attached a screen shot of my about phone section so you can see everything. Thanks!
There's a couple of methods to root ng6. Here's one method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2905848
