Just got my s5, and is asking for a update - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

Just switched from Verizon to t-mobile and got the s5 and seems to wants to throw me a update, I plan on rooting my phone today but if I update will it ruin the rooting method that is out?

Nope you're good to accept it prior to rooting.

CFAutoroot will work on the latest firmware. I unrooted, updated through Kies, and rerooted just to be sure.

Out of curiosity, how did you unroot? I forgot to check for the OTA before I rooted and never got it.

Okay, I mistyped. You unroot through a factory restore via Kies, but the Knox counter is still tripped.

No, that's fine.... Just making sure of the proper way to unroot. I was pondering using the posted .tar file and using Odin, but wasn't sure if that was the best method.

Does the t-mobile s5 have custom recovery yet or is still in the works?

Used the Noob friendly root and installed clockworkmod Recovery and that was it did nothing else.

Probably be able to download it but it will fail to install because of the custom recovery.

Is Samsung started OTA upgrade for Tab 10.1 ? Any way to get it even if the update says " No Updates Available". At present I am at 3.2

Why not just wait a few hours after the update drops for one of our fine devs here to build a flashable/rooted version???

Just flash the stock recovery back to your tab, not sure if root will stay after the OTA though.

If all you did was root it and nothing else, you'll get the update. Chances are you'll loose root though.

That's correct. If you are rooted but still have the stock recovery you will be able to do the update (which I'm assuming will be OTA), but more than likely lose root. If you installed a custom recovery you'll need to revert back to stock.
Once you root and install custom rom then is it possible to go back to factory state?

Yes. Go to www.sammobile.com, download a stock firmware and flash via odin.

You should flash only the file version. Of the software you started on before rooting/roming etc

I found a one-click MDK stock restore (an .exe file). Would that be a good one to use?

You may want to root or use airplane mode after you odin. A mdk will bring a few more dollars than the update you are about to get.

Recovery on 4.3 mk2?

So I took the risk and rooted my AT&T S4 with kingo. The only issue is that I can't get a recovery installed. Is there any way to get CWM installed or should I use safestrap?

I just flashed it this morning and did a restore. Was at stock and up to date before flashing. Using 2.7.0.0
I've been trying this method since TWRP went official on the S5 and it keeps telling me it's not supported. Same with GooManager and Flashify. I don't want to go the whole Odin route if these methods should work. I'm on Philz recovery but want to go to TWRP since I had that on my S3.
