A few months ago I upgraded to g33ker's Jelly bean update(e97020j), the official one. Before that I had the official ICS firmware and I had been able to root and unlock the bootloader easily. But after upgrading and trying a number of rooting methods, I have failed to root the phone.
I really want to upgrade to a newer custom firmware but the universal root first and then the app Framaroot failed to root my phone. Both the process showed succesfull at the end of the procedure but the root checker still show my phone to be unrooted and neither can I use the freegee app. It just appears blank. Please help.

Hi, here is my story.
I bought a Neo network free and I made update OTA from 2.3.3. at 2.3.4 and I got a brick Neo after this. To unbrick it, a friend flashed a new 2.3.3 ftf and after I used the X10 flash tool to repair the loader. After this I rooted with DooMLord_v4_ROOT. All good so far.
After this I got the message that is available a new update. To not repeat again the story I made the update with SE software update trought PC.
Now I have 2.3.4. on my Neo, in the applications menu I have Superuser and done the update, but my phone is not rooted. If I try to install any app what need root permisions I get the message that my phone is not rooted. I had installed AD free app before update to 2.3.4., now is there but is not running. Same the Auto app 2 SD (need root permisions).
I tried SuperOneClick v2.3.3, again DooMLord_v4_ROOT, Gingerbreak and all failed to root my phone.
How can I root my Neo without downgrade the FW and upgrade again?
Thanks.

Hello,
First of all I want to state that I am a complete noob with this kind of stuff. I have tried to root my galaxy s3 using a method including odin v3 and a file named: CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar.
This completes without any errors. It also installed supersu. When I open that app, it sais I do not have the binaryfile and it connot be updated. It has something to do with me running android 4.3.
Then I tried rooting my device using kingoroot. I noticed it said my device was not rooted at the start. Again this method completed without any errors.
But again the same error. The binary. When I checked the root status with the kingoroot application it said my device was not rooted.
Framaroot did not work either. (The procces did not even start because it could not use the exploit and it returned error #6)
Is there another method available to root my device? Or is there a way to update the binary?
Thanks in advance,

Hello. I have a Samsung Galaxy Discover (SCH-R740C) from Cricket. I had 4.0.4 when I got the phone but accidentally upgraded to 4.1.2, thus losing the previous root I had on the phone. Now that I want the root back, I can't seem to find anything that can root it whether it be from the computer or my phone. I have tried a lot of thing but all seemed to fail. Is there anything that could root it or maybe help me downgrade back to 4.0.4 or earlier? All help would be appreciated. Thanks!
What I tried using: Kingo Root, UnlockRoot, Safe Root, z4 Root, Key Root Unlocker, Poot, Framaroot

The only option I see left is towelroot. I can't promise it will let you downgrade as its only for root and nothing related to unlocking the bootloader

I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a cyanogenmod rom that worked with this phone. Thank you.

ME too. How can I root or unlock this phone.? Help please.
Try Kingo Root
do a google search for Kingo Root.
Its the only one I could find that worked but i still have a few issues.
Cant update or install recovery.
Cant gain Root for some apps.
Cant update SU.
Cand update Busy Box.
But one caveat is that i Rooted mine using Kingo around mid 2015.
There have been several updates to Kingo since then and while none have fixed my problem it may be able to do yours without error.
Make sure you use "Kingo" and not "king" or some other similar name as there are several and it can be confusing.
[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....
